Be the Catalyst in Your Life!

The founders of Ebay spoke at my college graduation ten years ago. I had to look them up online as it's been a long time! Man and wife, met at college - at our school. 

Funny thing is we loved the wife's address, but didn't particularly appreciate her husband's - in hindsight, his speech did make tons of sense. It was actually great, but you don’t always know good advice when you hear it. She talked about how important it was to be the catalyst in life. 

Be the change you want to see. If you want something to happen or even just think it needs to, go for it! It was a long time ago and I don't remember the specifics, but I do remember the phrase:

Be the Catalyst!  

Her husband went on to talk about the company - what it was like founding it. His inspiration and the wonderful life it afforded him. Sounds like an interesting speech but it didn't resonate with me at the moment, after all I was busy looking for a job and he told us that he started it as an automatic auction house because he didn't want to work in the first place. The business could run smoothly from Day 15 without his involvement. It didn't matter if he was at work or not, things would get shipped. Auctioneers would send their goods, the buyers would receive it. It afforded him enough time to go surfing and the opportunity not to work (if he didn't feel like it, I still find it hard to believe that you can run a company without going to work).

His message was to start a business that ticked on without our presence. Freedom. Financial Independence. Interesting!

That idea popped into my mind again this morning on my commute to work - my long commute to work. I had a brilliant idea over the weekend and will be working on putting it into place. Can I set it up, without it being labor intensive? Or depending on me…

The other thought that came to mind was author Wayne Dyer's point about staying on purpose. We can be successful and fullfilled as long as we’re on purpose. So my mission will be to stay on purpose with my energy healing pursuits, and my vision is to take it mainstream.

Does sharing have to be selfless or painful?

One of the things that I have had to let go of is the idea that if we help someone, it has to be 100% altruistic - in order for the action to be good. I don’t know if this is an idea that I adopted in childhood seeing others hold up selflessness as good - “give till it hurts” etc. The world would be a much better place if we knew that it is always in our benefit to help others. We always get something in return, directly or indirectly 💛 🫶🏻 Research shows that kindness makes for a much healthier society. I read a book last year called Shadow, Self & Spirit on transpersonal (or collective) psychology. There was a chapter on the psychology of evil and violence. People are less likely to harm others if they experience some form of compassion in their lives, or if they believe that someone cares about them - even if it’s a public figure, a politician, a celeb, or a deity like Quan Yin. Or better yet, family members, friends, and strangers. Random acts...

Is Manifesting for Real?

A while ago I wrote a post asking if spirit guides are real - pointing out that we have to challenge our beliefs, and also how we interpret what happens to us. Let's not get stuck in an idea or a worldview.  So today I'm going to take this approach to manifesting - is it for real? I don't think manifesting is for real, nor should it be the main focus in our lives. And honestly, I say this despite evidence to the contrary in my own life, i.e. things that I've manifested.   My issue with manifesting is that it's focused on ourselves, and what we can get in the material world. Personally, I've had good results applying conventional methods to get ahead - with help from my angels and guides. But still, it took drive and ambition to find a good corporate job in London, years ago. That and focusing on my personal competencies, and on the soft skills that were needed. Putting myself out there, networking, knocking on doors. Real world activities. And luck, that is a...

Vibrational Medicine by Dr Richard Gerber (Book Review)

People often ask if energy healing depends on the belief of the client - the placebo effect is real .  And while we   can  harness it by working through feelings and beliefs  that may undermine the healing process,   when I worked in  consumer  healthcare, research was  expected to outperform the placebo.   This is why I was happy to find a  book called  Vibrational Medicine,  by Dr Richard Gerber. It goes  through research done in labs and clinical settings. The book is a brick: 500 pages and almost too technical, but worth reading as an energy healer.   Below you will find highlights from Chapter 8 on Psychic Healing. Please note ,  Energy Healing is complementary to medical care, not alternative.   Dr. Gerber uses the term  'Psychic Healing'  throughout the book; however, in my own practice, I refer to these concepts as  'Energy Healing' based on my studies .
