Featured Spiritual Story:
Bloom Where You're Planted |
The flowers that bloom in the spring tra la. Indeed. Who would think that flowers have a life of their own. I mean really. Flowers are supposed to just stay put and look pretty and give off wonderful fragrances. They are not supposed to have feelings and thoughts. They are supposed to just stay where I plant them and be grateful for what I bestow on them.
They’re not supposed to get uppity... |

Spiritual Movie Review:
The Tapping Solution |
"If we can be traumatized in 30 seconds, why can't we be healed in say... a week... a day... or even an hour?"
That question comes from a documentary called "The Tapping Solution" (created by the producers of the "Tapping World Summit") that I watched recently. I find that question interesting and powerful because it challenges our belief systems (a common theme throughout the movie).
One of the people in The Tapping Solution claims that tapping will become a standard medical healing practice in the future. Until I watched The Tapping Solution, I was very skeptical. I thought it was a little bit crazy that people could heal emotional or physical ailments just by tapping on various places in their body. However, because highly successful people endorse tapping — people like Jack Canfield and Joe Vitale (both featured in themovie), Deepak Chopra — and some of my friends say it's the most powerful healing modality they know of, I figured that there was probably something about it that I didn't understand.
And after watching The Tapping Solution, I realized that tapping makes a lot of sense from neurological, psychological, and spiritual perspectives. In fact, I already 'knew' most of this stuff, I just wasn't applying it with the uniquely structured (and effective) 'tapping / EFT' methodology.
The super simple version is that tapping is a technique which combines ancient Chinese acupressure and modern psychology (you can learn more for free at the "Tapping World Summit")
It's also relevant to note that while I was watching The Tapping Solution I actually had tears in my eyes a couple of times because I was so touched by the transformation I witnessed in some of the participants. This movie gets my two thumbs up. :) |

Spiritual Book Review:
Money and the Law of Attraction by Esther and Jerry Hicks |
The second book in a series of four, Money, and the Law of Attraction delves into the most prevalent of human concerns affected by the law of attraction: health and finances. Filled with practical teachings channeled from Abraham (the group of non-physical entities/spirits that communicate through Esther Hicks), this book is a fundamental guide to learning how to attract and manifest financial abundance and physical well-being.
According to Abraham, the law of attraction is based on the concept of everything, both material and non-material, as a vibration. In our natural state, we resonate perfectly with all other vibrations and can only be in accord with abundance or well-being, or any other desirable state. How do we achieve our natural state? This book tells you, offering both the practical details and the big picture for learning new ways of looking at life and manifesting your desires. As with most spiritual teachings, this book doesn’t offer anything we don’t already know—at some level. The key is to activate that level of knowing and being, so that we can achieve harmony and balance with the vibrational well-being that surrounds us.
Even if you’ve read other books on the law of attraction, you’ll find yourself returning to Esther and Jerry Hicks’ salient guidance for reactivating that harmonic state where whatever experience we desire, we can create. Thousands (hundreds of thousands?) of people attest that the powerful teachings in this book work!
