The Ervin Hypnosis Center is dedicated to helping people succeed in reaching their
maximum potential through the use of hypnosis.

Each person is unique and requires individual attention. Hypnotist, Richard Ervin, consults
with the client to understand the issue and to tailor the session to fit the individual's need.

Richard studied hypnosis while working on his undergraduate degree in Psychology at the
University of Memphis.  His studies continued while pursing his Masters degree in
Management and Human Relations at Webster College.  Richard later attended the Southern
Institute of Hypnosis to complete the course work required to gain his certification and the
title of Master Hypnotist.

B OD Y A S T E M P L E










by Tonya Parker

Comparing the body to God’s or Spirit’s temple is a concept found in


various religions and spiritual paths. In order to reach the highest level of
spiritual consciousness, vibrating our energy at a level to maintain
alignment with our higher power, we must make sure that our physical
body is in order. According to the late Edgar Cayce, this means our body
is “properly assimilating nutrients needed to maintain high levels of life
and eliminating wastes and toxins that build up in the system.” He also
advocated exercising and receiving massages and adjustments to keep
the fluids and electrical energies flowing smoothly throughout our entire
system.

Many of us first start with managing our weight as a way to get our
physical body in order. As the fall and winter holidays approach, we are
often faced with challenges to weight maintenance because of the
abundance of opportunities to feast. Consequently, many of us have
developed patterns of putting on extra pounds, followed by periods of
frantic efforts to release the excess weight. Unfortunately, the
choices we make in improving our physical body do not always
support the system as a whole as we take an extreme route to
weight release.

According to Sheri Barke, MPH, RD on the website http://


www.snac.ucla.edu/pages/Resources/Handouts/
HORestrictiveDieting.pdf, depending on the plan, restrictive
dieters may develop a decreased metabolism, a drop in the sex
hormones estrogen and testosterone, decreased sexual interest,
absence of menses, bone loss, constipation and gastrointestinal
upset. Additionally, one may experience sleep problems,
weakness, feeling cold all the time, loss of lean body mass, and
changes in brain chemistry that increase appetite and food
cravings. The body goes into starvation mode, which triggers
bingeing. These are just the physical effects—Barke reports there
can be effects to cognition, as well, including decreased
concentration, poor judgment, and apathy. The emotional and
social effects can include depression, anxiety, irritability and anger, mood swings, psychotic episodes, personality
changes, and social withdrawal.

The Every Diet website, http://www.everydiet.org/diets.htm, lists almost three hundred little- and well-known nutritional
diets. The sheer number can seem daunting to someone desiring to make a conscious choice about a nutritional plan.
Below are a few diets and lifestyles often encountered by many seeking to strengthen their body temple in a more holistic
manner.

Our body is our temple. Just as each person’s relationship with the divine and path to enlightenment is an
individual experience, how we provide nutrients for our bodies is individual, as well. Cookie-cutter, one-
size-fits-all approaches, especially of the extreme variety, can be risky. Being conscious and taking a holistic
approach to nutrition is important. Make sure you educate yourself fully and check with your health care
provider before choosing to adjust your nutritional lifestyle. Finally, pay attention to when your temple
communicates if an approach is supportive or not—it is your temple, so be
familiar with its signs of breaking down.

Butternut Squash & Apple Soup
One way to support the body temple is to eat locally and in season. Autumn is my favorite season of the
year, and this dish celebrates two of the tasty treats found at this time of year—butternut squash and Granny
Smith apples! You can also substitute acorn, spaghetti, and yellow squashes for the butternut. Organic
ingredients are chosen based on guidelines by The Environmental Working Group. Although the navy beans
can be included for protein, meat lovers can sauté spicy turkey sausage instead and add it to this flavorful
soup for an extra kick.

INGREDIENTS

• 1 butternut squash, peeled, seeds removed, chopped


• 1 organic Granny Smith apple, peeled, cored, chopped
• 3 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
• 1 large red onion, chopped
• 1 rib of organic celery, chopped
• 2 cups carrot, chopped
• 1 can navy beans, drained (optional)
• 2 Tbsp cold-pressed extra-virgin olive oil
• Pinches of sea salt, black pepper, cinnamon, and nutmeg to taste

DIRECTIONS

1. Wash the fresh vegetables thoroughly before peeling and chopping.


2. Sauté onion, celery, and carrot in olive oil in a large saucepan for about 5 minutes.
3. Add squash and apple and continue sautéing until they begin to soften.
4. Add broth and beans.
5. Simmer for about 10 minutes or until squash is soft.
6. Puree mixture in a blender or food processor until smooth, adding more broth or water if needed for
your ideal consistency.
7. Add spices to taste.

Serves 6-8.

3 WAYS TO
RELEASE
ANGER &
EMBRACE LOVE
IN YOUR

RELATIONSHIP
BY JEN ALY

Anger is a clue. It’s a clue that a need is not being met.


When it is present, listen. Often people are afraid of anger
because they’ve had bad experiences with it, such as being
on either side of abuse, losing or hurting something or
someone or a combo of all of the above. This may be
obvious, but I’m going to say it anyway, anger is not
violence. Anger is an emotion. On Abraham-Hicks’
Emotional Guidance Scale it’s on the way up from fear,
powerlessness, depression, grief, guilt and unworthiness
(and more). Why? Because at the very least you are
feeling!

If a client has been in a funk of fear or depression or


doubt, I encourage them to clarify what they don’t want
and to ask questions about what they need and we get to
the bottom of what the anger is signaling. And when we
get through that, there’s more energy to work with and it
starts moving. At the bottom of the scale, there is
depression and fear. It’s so easy to stay there. It’s like a
stagnant pool without much happening. But anger is
flowing and alive.

that it comes from a part of you that is so young that it

asking it how old it is. Ask it why it’s angry and what it

clear action steps.

Minute Meditation
By Susan Marek

It takes only a minute to read and breathe.

Connecting with Spirit Meditation


This meditation may be used at any time to assist you in a mindful connection with
Spirit. I encourage you to first call on your angels and guides to be at hand and to
provide a comfortable, loving presence during your meditation. You may also find it
helpful to record these words in your own voice and play it back during meditation. I
recommend you perform this meditation sitting comfortably on the floor or a chair.

C
Close your eyes.

Take a deep breath. Inhale through your nose, letting the breath flow easily and effortlessly into your lungs. Exhale
slowly, allowing your breath to gently flow upward and out through your mouth.

Relax deeper into yourself as you take another deep breath, again letting it effortlessly flow in through your nose and
out through your mouth.

Visualize yourself standing at the bottom of a small hill on the edge of a lush meadow. It is a bright, sunny day, and
there is a cooling breeze that softly brushes by your face. You begin to walk up a gently sloping path that winds its
way around the hill to the summit. This walk is effortless, and you seem to easily glide along at a relaxed pace. You
can hear the chirping of birds in the meadow. You are fully relaxed and enjoying the day. As you ascend further, you
notice the sounds have shifted and now seem to be coming from above you. You hear soft tones, which surround you
in a gentle vibration. You are at the top now, and the light around you is an intense gold light. You feel lighter than
you have ever felt before and more relaxed than you have ever been. You sit in the grass at the top and allow the light
and tones to completely envelope you. Breathe deeply and relax into this Divine light and vibration, knowing you are
complete just as you are, and that you are connected at your core to Spirit. The vibrations are aligning your higher self
to the Oneness of the Universe. You are perfect, whole, and complete. As you breathe in the golden light, your body
drinks in the energy, replenishing and repairing itself, aligning itself with its Divine blueprint. Breathe…

You stand and begin to walk slowly down the path toward the meadow. As you descend, you feel blissful and renewed.
You reach the bottom and again hear the birds and sounds of the meadow. You are grateful for the divine connection
and know that you may return to this spot at anytime. When you are ready, take a deep breath and feel the energy
flowing through your body as you gently come back into the room and continue with your day, fully energized and
refreshed.

THE SPIRITUAL bookshelf
CHOOSE THEM WISELY
by Mike Dooley
Choose Them Wisely encourages us to dream big and think and act as though those dreams have
already manifested. The wit, and even the small doses of sarcasm sprinkled throughout, makes for an
entertaining read and adds to the easy accessibility of Dooley's insights.

What began as a series of emails sent to customers of his family's former t-


shirt business, has been compiled into Choose Them Wisely:Thoughts
Become Things! Mike Dooley, a featured teacher in The Secret, believes
wholeheartedly that, as co-creators of our lives, we can bring about all the
good things we desire for our lives simply by cultivating the right thoughts.
We don't have to seek out more of this or more of that, instead we are to
just be and think about what we want and not what we have or don't have.
He offers up his own original rhyming poetry and proverbs to bring this
idea to life.

Mike Dooley says, "we're each the co-creator of all that we share and our
experiences spring from an eternal now." He suggests to the reader to "just
open this book to any 'random' page and see what you get." One can
assume that this randomness works as each bit of wisdom is seemingly
always relevant and relative. So, I randomly flipped the pages and the book
landed on "The Voyage":



The Voyage
Your dreams are gifts
that set you in motion
on the tides of time
where life is an ocean.
And your sails are filled
with the winds of desire
to surge through the waves
of murk and mire.
But when you awaken
with your goal at hand,
you'll see your true destination
was the voyage not the land.

One sentence in his thoughts following this poem sums it up nicely: "A lifetime is made up of journeys, not
destinations." Here, the idea that the journey itself, not the end result, is what makes us is what resonates.
For all of his brevity (most of these bits of wisdom are on a single page), Dooley's Choose Them Wisely
can certainly impress upon you thoughts that have the weight of lead and, at the same time, leave you
feeling light.

A WRITER’S bookshelf
Terri's Thoughts:
 
Choose Them Wisely encourages us to dream big and think and act as though those dreams have
already manifested. The wit, and even the small doses of sarcasm sprinkled throughout, makes for
an entertaining read and adds to the easy accessibility of Dooley's insights. The book's readability
is very flexible as it can be devoured in one short sitting or read daily just as the original emails
were delivered. The helpful content is timeless; it will always be relevant. The visual appeal of the
pages gives the feeling of revisiting a cherished journal. Mike Dooley has given us that bedside
table book which we can pick up at any moment, turn to any page, and get just the morsel we need
to nourish our spirits and instigate self-development.

important now, because much of your time will be spent indoors over the
coming months.

For example: the home that sits on a T-intersection or cul-de-sac has to create
some stability and motion to the space as these energies bring tension to the
property. Be sure to "square off" the house if you have found a "missing
piece." And, of course maintenance like chimney work, painting and the like
should be taken care of before the weather turns us inside.

energy, de-clutter and clean the space prior to hanging the crystal.

THE
GRATITUDE
Council
by Lori Saitz
In his book “Think and Grow Rich,” Napoleon Hill
wrote about imaginary Council meetings with a group
he called his “Invisible Counselors.” His council
included nine individuals whose lives and work Hill
admired, such as Ralph Waldo Emerson, Thomas
Edison and Abraham Lincoln. He would “meet” with
this imaginary group every night for the exclusive
purpose of “rebuilding (his) own character so it would
represent a composite of the characters of (his)
imaginary counselors.”

You’ve heard it before; if you want to soar like an


eagle, you have to hang out with eagles, not turkeys.
So if you want to live a more grateful life, then it
makes sense to surround yourself with people who
recognize the importance of gratitude in their lives.
What if you created a “Gratitude Council” to help you
become more grateful?

One way to do this is to create a list of nine to twelve


people who have inspired you to bring more gratitude
into your life or who have set a good example for you
in that regard. Think of your friends, family, world,

SOMETHING TO PONDER
Just as the weather man predicted, another afternoon rainstorm passed
through. Only this time, I decided to sit in the garage to watch and
experience it, instead of heading for cover by hiding out in my bedroom as
usual. I watched as the rain drops pounded the cement and exploded. As I
stared at one small area, I noticed the many drops that hit it in a short
amount of time. They were far too many to number.

This reminded me of a place I’d been before and where I was in that
moment of my life. I was repeating a pattern. I felt as though it was
raining in my life and that it was coming down hard and abundantly. The
rain appeared so thick that I could not see what was right in front of me.
My car which was only 10 feet in front of me could not be seen through
the heaviness of the rain. I felt like Paul must have on the Road to
Damascus- Blind! I could not figure out where my life was headed or
how I was going to get there. All I knew is that I had to keep one foot in
front of the other and just step; one step at a time. I had to continue down
the path to where my life was leading me, only in this moment without
being able to see where that was. There were times where I wanted to quit
and give up and go back to the way things had been before, even though

the rain came, it left. All that was left were remnants of the storm to
remind me of what had just passed through. I returned my focus to the sun
and smiled for I knew that the storm in my life would soon be gone and
the sun would shine again.

So, what do you do when life seems to not be cooperating with your
desires? Do you react out of fear only to repeat the lesson or do you
respond knowing that this too shall pass? Just something to ponder.

PRAY
ALWAYS
(ALL-WAYS)

“When I pray I feel my heart go deeper into my God.


Right here, right now, right where I am, I pray.” ~
Daniel Nahmod

“He told them a parable on the necessity of praying


always and not losing heart.” ~ Luke 18:1

I recall a time when I was teaching and a student asked, is


the best time to pray, morning, noon, or night? I said, yes!
The class chuckled thinking I was making yet another corny
attempt to keep humor infused with my teaching. However,
this time I was not joking. There is no wrong time to pray.
As we spiritually mature we begin to realize that every
moment offers another opportunity to pray. Ask a hundred
people on the street when they pray or, better yet, why they
pray, and you’ll get a hundred different answers.

Most people who pray will affirm that they pray because it is
how they connect, communicate and commune with their
Higher Power. Often our prayers have a request attached to
them and sometimes our prayers are simply our way of
having an intimate relationship with the Infinite, deepening
that sense of connection and oneness with something larger
than ourselves. I think we can all find comfort in prayer. As
we evolve in our relationship with Life, perhaps our
intentions and the content of our prayers do as well.

to those seeking a purely secular motivational message that moves people toward specific goals and fulfillment
of their desires. He has a deep understanding of universal principles and draws on wisdom from both eastern and
western philosophies. Dennis believes that there is a new consciousness of unity, cooperation and reverence
rising in humankind where the value of all life is sacred. He believes this consciousness of unity, cooperation
and reverence for all life will be one of the most significant spiritual influences upon society, helping to ground a
realistic, spiritually mature approach to the challenges of 21st century living.

5 Ways to
Surrender to
the Flow of
Life
by Liara M. Covert, Ph.D.

You may have heard that it is a good idea to ‘surrender to


the flow of things.’ At the same time, the prospect of
giving in to how you perceive things to be may also seem
like giving up or allowing fate to control the direction of
your life. These kinds of thoughts draw attention to your
own restlessness, discomfort and resistance. What is
there is a different underlying message here?

Many people assume surrender must mean giving up


something good, that is, sacrificing what they think they
want or assuming they will
not get enough. Yet, true
surrender is something very
different. It is the key to
balance, integrity and
reconnecting with the
authentic self. This part of
you is temporarily hidden
until you choose to work
through and reinterpret
negative feelings.

Another kind of surrender is to sense when it is in your


interest to yield to what feels right. Such surrender is
when you trust intuition. You recognize controlling
circumstances is not your job. This has nothing to do
with giving into possession or external power. You realize
you have a choice about how to think, feel and respond to
what is happening. Rather than feel you are losing
something, you can realize that this attitude enables you
to gain something meaningful. You shift inward and are
no longer primarily ego-driven. Instead, you sense an
expansion of love consciousness.

The Infinite Field Magazine page 41


Consider these five ways to surrender to the flow of life:

1) Let go of resistance. Any sense of tension implies


the body resists something that prevents inner balance.
This is an invitation to figure out the root cause of a
particular fear. Realize your soul harbors no negativity,
no anger, no grudges, no frustration and no
misunderstanding. Soul accepts energy flow as it is. It
discerns value where you may choose not to look.

2) Be open to everyone as a teacher. The flow of


energy reveals you need not change people. This is not
your job. The soul or core self is tolerant, grateful,
understanding, and able to reframe perceived limitations
as opportunities to grow. Further, focusing on “now” and
what you can learn releases illusions that prevents you
from sensing value wherever you are.

3) Sense benefits in all seasons. Your innate state does


not judge or express negativity about conditions. To
detach from this, choose to find advantages or benefits in
all seasons. This does not only concern climate or judge which kind is right or wrong. Yet, as the inner

4) Rise above dense emotion. The flow of love is To raise awareness of what is going on inside you is very

What is Spiritus - The Spiritual Marketing Directory?

My name is Shelagh Jones, and I want to tell you a little about how Spiritus - the Spiritual Marketing Directory, came
to be created.
Business Promotion

First, being involved in internet marketing myself, I was a member of several social networking sites, where the prime
intention was to relationship with other people.

But behind this intention was another intention, the intention to attract people to my business. And sometimes this
secondary intention got in the way of the first intention, and I began to think to myself - What if there was a business
directory where people could openly and cleanly promote their business to like-minded people?

Law of Attraction – like is attracted to like

A second place was from my work with small businesses, helping them to build their list of customers.

A common cry was - I wish I could find more customers who are just like me. People who have the same values, who
think like me about how to live a life, how to run a business, how to have business interactions work out to the best
advantage of all involved.

And often I would introduce suppliers to customers and see a business relationship flourish because of the shared
values of the people involved.

Market from Spirit

A third place was meeting people who were operating in industries which have a poor reputation for customer service -
but who were choosing to do things differently, to do what felt right and good to them, not what everyone else was
doing.

I thought - what if there was a place where people looking for a company in that industry could find out about the
values of businesses, about what motivated them, before starting a business relationship with them?

Out of these three ideas, Spiritus - the Spiritual Marketing Directory was born.

n the scriptures we read, a story of the boy

I Samuel when he was very young and was in


training with the priest Eli. Samuel was
asleep and he heard a voice calling him,
“Samuel, Samuel!” He rose up and said, “Here I am,
Lord.” He went to his teacher, his priest Eli, and said,
“You called me?” Eli said, “No, I didn’t call you. Go lie
down, go to sleep.” So Samuel went back and lay down
again. Three times this happened. After the third time,
Eli perceived that the Lord was calling Samuel; the
voice of God was speaking to him. So he said, “I want
you to go back and lie down, and if that call comes
again, just say this: ‘Your servant hears. Speak, Lord.”
So Samuel went back, lay down, and the voice came
again, “Samuel, Samuel!” He said, “Your servant hears,
Lord. Speak.” It was then that he was shown a vision of
his future, in harmony with God.

The prophet Isaiah, when he was young, also had a


vision and he heard a voice saying “Whom shall we
send? Who will go for us?” And a voice within Isaiah
prompted him and said, “Here I am, send me!” In other
words, “Count me in, God, count me in!”

The Infinite Field Magazine page 55


Step 2:

Kristopher:
The second step is what we call “To Flow It.” The first step is that you just allow it to be there..whatever it is. You
don’t chase it away or wish it was gone. You just Welcome it. After that, there is a point where you realize that there
is a energy that flows through you like a river. And you take the pain or whatever you have allowed to be there, and
just let it release it and allow it to flow down the river. You would be very surprised at how powerful “letting go and
letting it flow really is” and how wonderful you feel after you do it. But you can’t do the second step until you
welcome it and release the blocks. So the first step is very important.

ow
Kalyn:

l
At that point, after you’ve done the first two steps, people are generally flowing pretty well. Those first two steps are
very significant because it tends to be really hard for people to let their experience fully come to them especially if it’s

F
something that’s pretty negative. It can be really difficult for people sometimes to just allow it to be with them. Once
they’ve done that, then the next step is to let it flow because at that point it requires you to really let it go. And that
tends to be hard because we’re so used to holding on to negativity. So those first two steps are really important. If

n
people can get to that second step they’re doing really well. At then, people begin to feel lighter and they feel that

e
they can handle life better. They feel like life’s problems aren’t really so persistent.

ld
Step 3:

o
The 3rd step is to Allow the replacement to come. And for that to happen, you simply go into your flow. You allow

G
that source energy to come to you. So there’s nothing really to do, but to allow. What happens is your source does
come and that Golden Flow or that infinite field which is always present, opens to you because you open yourself to

For a lot of participants that we’ve had who’ve worked with The Golden
Flow, they start to find the resolution to a problem or they start to see and
figure out how to attract something to themselves. Everything starts to
fall into place. A lot of that is happening in that 3rd step where there is
nothing to do, except allow. Because at that point you have gotten
yourself into your flow. Everything shifts then. EVERYTHING changes.

Kristopher:
What we tried to do, when this system was downloaded to us, is to make it simple for everyone. By the time you enter
the 3rd step, you’re already flowing and have already entered The Infinite Field or The Golden Flow. Then what you
need, will then be given exactly as you need it. Exactly what you need will be given to you. Whether its a solution or
an answer that you have been looking for, maybe you need love or maybe you need security. Whatever it is, you call
the replacement: (your source energy, that golden flow, that infinite field) you will be there, right there where it is.
And it will always be there for you. That 3rd step is when you are actually in the infinite field.

My talk with Kristopher and Kalyn is perhaps one of the most fascinating conversations that I have ever had. This
conversation is most fascinating because for the first time since I first stumbled upon The Infinite Field, I am getting
some direct insight from God/Source/Universe/Spirit on exactly what this divine gift that I call The Infinite Field
really is and really means. Ask and you shall receive. Yes, I had asked to know more and to learn more about The
Infinite Field. I wanted to be able to understand it myself and to be able to coherently share it with others.

Kristopher and Kalyn were so generous with their knowledge. They took me step by step and explained so purely

w
and so plainly what The Infinite Field is and how we can live there. Not only that, they live it by example and have
allowed me such a private and personal peak into their journey. It is one of authenticity and spirit.

lo
Something broke inside me and opened up. During our conversation, I went through the steps. I welcomed some

F
things that were deep inside me...things that I had pushed far away from me. I welcomed them. Then I allowed them
to flow down the river of The Infinite that flows inside me. Instantly, I was back in “the flow.” Back doing what I
love, which is sharing good stuff with all of you...back in The Infinite Field where I belong. Ahh, yes...It never left

n
me. It has always been there. All I had to do was click my heels and I am home.

e
What a beautiful place The Infinite Field truly is for me and for all who choose this as a dwelling place. If you’ve

been lost or perhaps couldn’t find your way, I welcome you home. HOME. This is your final destination. The
Golden Flow. The Infinite Field.

tingle as the flow moves within me. My heart beats with
merriment as the flow bubbles inside me. My mind swirls with

times every day you can notice yourself
having an emotion. Paste sticky notes
around yourself so whenever you see
one you can check in with yourself to
see where you are emotionally. Ask your
body how it is feeling as you move through the energy of this emotion. Watch yourself as an observer, with
complete detachment, as the emotion plays out. Alter the emotion and simply watch how everything around you
shifts.

Now that you are a master over your emotions:

Moving beyond the technique:

Practice being in neutral, with no emotional charge whatsoever. As often as you can, simply see your emotions as a
gear shift on a car. See your hand moving the gear from drive (or overdrive!) to neutral, or reverse back to neutral.
Breathe. Breathe. And, did I mention breathe?

With every repetition of your moving from emotion to neutral, you are building neural pathways in your brain, and
like a muscle, these pathways get stronger and faster every time you repeat the process.

Soon, you will notice that the time it takes you to get back into neutral decreases. Then, it will seem like it is on
automatic.

This is being.

Happy Neutrality!

Reiki Explained
by Alice Langholt
You may have heard of Reiki, and it may sound like a
supernatural kind of spirit summoning or psychic
channeling. These are not quite accurate, although aspects
of Spirit connectedness and channeling energy are part of
the essence of Reiki. Here’s a straightforward explanation
for a simple, yet profound energy healing technique.

Reiki is a Japanese-originated method for stress reduction


and relaxation that also promotes physical and emotional
healing. Reiki treatments are given by a light hands-on
touch, and follow the idea that an unseen "life force energy"
flows through us and is what enables us to be alive. When
stress and other emotional factors drain our life force
energy, we are more likely to get sick or feel exhausted.
With thriving life force energy, we are more capable of
being emotionally balanced and healthy.

The word “Reiki” is a combination of two Japanese words –


Rei, meaning "Spiritually guided," and Ki which is "life
force energy". So Reiki translates to "spiritually guided life
force energy."

Reiki treats the whole person including body, emotions,


mind and spirit, and brings relaxation and feelings of peace,
security and comfort. Many have reported accelerated
healing after Reiki treatments. Reiki is available to anyone,
and can easily be learned by anyone. Reiki works in
complement to all other medical or therapeutic techniques
to relieve side effects and promote healing.

The ability to channel Reiki energy is transferred to a


student during a Reiki class. This ability is passed on during
an "attunement" given by a Reiki master, immediately
enabling the student to access the unlimited supply of "life
force energy" for its many physical and emotional benefits.

The Infinite Field Magazine page 67


Although Reiki is spiritual in nature, it is not a religion. It
has no commandments or requirements for worship, and
Reiki works whether one believes in it or not. Reiki’s
spiritual aspects and tangible results often give people a
spiritual connection that their religion may not.

Dr. Mikao Usui, the founder of the Reiki system of natural


healing, recommended that one practice certain simple
ethical ideals to promote peace and harmony, which are
nearly universal across all cultures. One is told to recite
these precepts in the morning and evening in addition to
self-healing with Reiki. They are:

The secret art of inviting happiness


The miraculous medicine of all diseases
Just for today, do not anger
Do not worry and be filled with gratitude
Devote yourself to your work. Be kind to people.
Every morning and evening, join your hands in prayer.
Pray these words to your heart
and chant these words with your mouth
Usui Reiki Treatment for the improvement of body and
mind

Owning YOUR Harvest
by Valerie Love

SPIRITUAL FINANCE

You are responsible for, and you are the creator of the condition of each item on this list. They are all just one big
mirror; reflecting back to you your dominant thoughts about money—conscious and subconscious—and how much of
it you think you deserve. Owning up to what we create is difficult if we have a financial mess on our hands. Owning
up to what we create when things turn out well is easy to do.

 To become wildly successful financially, you’ll have to own up to both sides of the coin:

1. If you created a mess, acknowledge it, and determine to change it. Then set up a plan to mend your situation
and follow your plan religiously. Never belittle yourself in the process as this is counterproductive to your
success.
2. Conversely, if you’ve done something well and have had some financial success, acknowledge that too, and
take the appropriate credit for it without being a braggart.
This is a good time to relate one of my favorite Zen master stories.

A Zen master lived many miles away from one of his


students, so they communicated by letter carrier
frequently, as they could not see each other face to
face very often.

A major lesson the student needed to learn was how


not to be blown about in life by what the Zen master
referred to as the eight winds, two of which were
praise and ridicule. After many years of learning
from the Zen master, the student sat down one day
and wrote a long letter to his master explaining how
he had transformed and was no longer blown about
in life by the eight winds. He was not unduly
uplifted when others praised him, nor was he
saddened when others ridiculed him, he wrote. The
student ended his letter with: “I have learned my
lessons well.” When he was done, he sent his
heartfelt words off to his master by way of letter
carrier.

Days later, when the Zen master received the letter,


he simply wrote two words on it: “Fart fart” and sent

The Infinite Field Magazine page 69


When the student got back the long letter he had painstakingly written to his master and saw what the master had so
callously written across the page, he decided it was time to visit the master to see what this was all about. After all the
hard work he had done to transform, why had the master written such an offhand comment on his sincere letter?

The student saddled his horse, and after many days of traveling, he
finally reached his master. When the student arrived, he greeted the
master and could barely wait to ask, ‘What is the meaning of this, I
have told you that I am free of the eight winds, why have you sent
this message to me?’

The master simply stated, “You say you are free of the eight winds, but
two little farts blew you all the way down here.”

This is a good story to keep in mind when you think about your money.
Why? Because balance is called for in all things, including, and
especially, money. When things are going well, and others praise you
for it, accept the praise graciously and take the credit, but never allow
the praise of others to make you big-headed, haughty, prideful or
unteachable.

On the other hand, when things are going poorly, don’t beat yourself up
or allow yourself to become dejected, depressed or downtrodden about
your monetary failures. Even Donald Trump had huge money failures,
only to use them as fuel to make a huge comeback and become even
richer than he was before the fall. Failures teach us how not to proceed
the next time. Whenever I have a monetary failure, I’ve learned to look
in the mirror (where else would I look?) and ask myself a few simple
questions:

1. What is this failure here to teach me?


2. How can I address the current situation according to principle and universal law?
3. What’s my game plan for righting my wrong and making a financial comeback?
4. What will I do differently next time, so that I never wind up here again? (Most people go round and round in a
vicious cycle repeating the same money mistakes over and over and over again.)
You are the creator of your financial condition, whatever it is. The sooner you own your power, the sooner
you’ll be financially successful.

The Infinite Field Magazine page 70


Victims don’t win, nor do they deserve to.

You won’t reap a harvest of Money Trees if you think that you’re a victim. When things go wrong,
you have two choices:

1. Be a victim, or
2. Be a creator
You know you’re slipping into victim mentality when the following comes to your mind, or even falls
out of your mouth with regard to your money:

1. Why me?
2. I don’t know how this could have happened to me.
3. Just when I think I’m getting ahead, something always comes along and knocks me back down.
4. One day my ship will come in.
5. Why is it that everyone else gets what they want and I don’t get what I want?

When you know you’re responsible for your own financial situation and you meet with failures along
the way, you think and say:

1. What kind of thinking do I need to eliminate so I can eliminate this money problem?
2. What do I need to learn to rise above where I am right now?
3. What action do I need to take to ensure that I succeed with my money?
4. Who could I partner with so I can move past this failure swiftly?
5. How can I not repeat this mistake again?
6. What are the lessons I need to learn so I can grow into a person who’s bigger than any failure?
Just remember this: you are not powerless.

You are a powerful creator who always has options. You may not like all your options, and some of them may be
limited, but that doesn’t mean they don’t exist. Make the most of your options, and think like the creator that you
are, and you’ll rise to new heights financially and reap a huge harvest!

Here's to rich living,

In a forest filled with hundreds of trees, lived a

when she looked around and noticed all the big, full, tall,

One day, a very small ant climbed the tree. The ant’s legs
tickled and the tree could not stop laughing. “That tickles,”
said the tree to the ant. “I am happy to hear you having fun,”
said the ant, “you always seem so sad.” “I do feel sad most of
the time. How did you know?” asked the tree. “I can see it.
Your branches are drooping. Your pine needles are dry and
brittle. You seem weak and you have stopped growing,”
replied the ant. “True.” I do not have much to feel good
about. Everything about me is all wrong,” sighed the tree.
“What do you believe is wrong with you?” asked the ant. So,
the tree described every detail of what she believed was
wrong with her. “You feel sad because you think that there
are some things about yourself that are not the way you
believe they should be. Is that right?” asked the ant.

Ken and Reneé Kizer

Many people want to know the key to having and enjoying a successful relationship. We have been
blessed with a most excellent marriage experience. It’s largely the result of making the conscious
effort to play nice with each other. The main thing we’ve discovered is that love is the easy part. All
it takes to really love someone is to spend time with them. The more challenging part is in the
details: do you trust each other? Can you communicate? Do you share a vision? Do you even like
each other? Here is our story.

me to stay connected with myself so that I don’t miss anything about this love we share. Another really important thing
in our marriage is we like to laugh. We find the same the same things funny (most of the time) and we share this with
each other. Even when we are having an off day, we can find a way to find the humor in the situation and that can lift
us out of the funk.

What has or have been the biggest challenges?

Trusting myself to give and receive all the love that has been and is present everyday. There is a natural law that
states,"Love brings up anything unlike itself for the purpose of healing." Over the years I have found this to be true for
me. Anytime I fall deeper in love with Ken, inevitably I find faults about him or about myself that attempt to distract
me from the love that is present. It sometimes looks like he has disappointed me and sometimes it looks like I have let
him down. In other words I dredge up old thoughts from my past to justify why the relationship isn't working in that
moment. Even now, those thoughts can feel very real and I have to remember to forgive the past, my birth family,
myself, and/or Ken. The more I love myself, the more I love Ken, and then I can get back to having fun in the
relationship. It does take discipline to work my process, focus on a more positive outlook, and a willingness to
surrender to thoughts and feelings that are not always easy to handle. What I have found in the down times, is that often
it is just a mood I am experiencing and it always shifts over time. The other belief I hold is that everything is a choice
and I can always change my mind and moods are a choice (whether I know why I made that choice or not).

What does the future hold?

More of this Love, this passion, this amazing relationship, and remembering our first promise to each other: Keep
having fun!

Wonder All Around
by Jane Bluestein, Ph.D., Judy Lawrence, M.S.Ed.,
and SJ Sanchez, M.P.A.

Have you ever gotten a postcard from a place so beautiful that you stopped to
imagine what living in a place like that must be like? Have you ever suspected
that doing laundry or paying bills would somehow be a lot less tedious in
Tahiti, Paris or the Himalayas?

The Infinite Field Magazine page 80


There is beauty all around us, no matter where we live. But even people living in the most beautiful surroundings
can become oblivious to the richness in their environment when the details of daily life take over. Seeing the
wonder all around us requires a certain deliberateness and mindfulness. If you already live in a place you consider
to be beautiful, or if you have at some point relocated to a particular place because of its beauty, then this
awareness may come easily to you. However, you may live in a place that requires that you look a little harder to
find— or notice— the beauty around you.

You may also need to broaden your definitions of beauty and wonder. Truly fortunate are those who can find
resplendence in any environment, who can be awed as easily at the sight of a road through a rural cornfield as they
can be watching storm clouds blanket a crowded city or a sunset embroider a snow-covered mountain. But it’s not
necessary to leave home or travel to exotic lands to experience beauty. Sometimes, it’s just a matter of seeing.
Remember, somewhere out there, a visitor may be sending someone a picture postcard of your hometown.

Go to a window or step outside. Look around. Notice the lines and curves, the textures, shadows and colors in the
buildings on your block. Witness the miracle of a flower growing through the crack in a sidewalk or a vacant lot.
Allow a sunset to take your breath away. Smell the adventure of the changing seasons in the gentle beauty of a
fallen leaf. Lie down on your roof or lawn and float along with the clouds.

Observe. Receive. Connect.

Listen to the sacred symphony of waves breaking on the


beach. Chase a rainbow or a shooting star. Notice how
many shades of green can be produced by nature in a
garden or park. Taste the temperature of a warm summer
breeze. Wrap yourself in the colors of a stormy
afternoon. Go for a walk in a different part of town. Let
the sparkle of sunlight on a stream hypnotize you.

Open your eyes. Take in the beauty of where you are


right now. Even if you’ve never before appreciated the
local environmental ambience, it’s all there, all around
you, beauty and wonder in immeasurable supply. And it’s
all for you!

Enjoy!

I feel privileged to have had the opportunity to

internationally recognized medical intuitive, author
of the book Intuitive Wellness, national lecturer,
has done private medical intuitive healings with
thousands of clients and she is a radio host. What is
different about Laura than most people? She has
had a near death experience and came back into her
body with divine knowledge and special intuitive
gifts to use and teach us. She is one person who
knows how to live balanced and stay in the flow!

As a wife and mother of two young children, Alicia


and Christopher, Laura was living a normal life
until January, 1982, when Laura awoke with a
headache and vomiting. After a week of
excruciating pain, and being diagnosed as having
the flu, she and her two children jumped on an
airplane and went to her parent’s house. The pain
in her head became intolerable, and her eyes were
protruding out of their sockets. Laura ended up in
an ambulance en route to the hospital. In the midst
of her unbearable pain, she felt her soul was
separating from her body. She said her body began
to feel very light and sensed that she was moving
onward. This began her near death experience. She
spoke about this powerful light that took her breath
away, and was filled with unconditional love. Her
Laura Alden Kamm book explains the whole amazing experience with
many more details. Laura’s soul made a choice to
come back into her body.

back of her head which was removed, and that set
off a chain of physiological events. Laura

that innocence, not naiveté, in your heart. You cannot learn, re-balance, be present, or redirect anything clearly if you
aren’t open and have, at least, a whisper of child-like trust. This internal innocence creates spaciousness, the precursor
to intuitive wisdom. This, in turn, will naturally create a sense of connection and empowerment within you and link you
to the core energy of your particular change. You will organically attract the path that holds the wisdom and direction
which will ease your situation.

In the process of change, these three fundamental steps will be repeated, over and over again. Learn these, and life will
