Gratitude for Healing Mind and Body
It’s been about 2 weeks since I broke the left ankle and wow what a journey. I walk and talk in gratitude every day and each morning during meditation and yet this is a much deeper level of gratitude.
I have gratitude for the working right leg, which I sprained from overuse within the first few days of using crutches. I learned that the crutches had been fitted improperly. I’m that much more grateful for the right leg and that it works so well and keeps me balanced and strong.
I have gratitude for the arms, shoulders and hands which are carrying around the extra weight with crutches. It became difficult in the first few days of using crutches because the wrists hadn’t had that much continuous weight on them – ever. Now I have really good biceps and triceps.
I have gratitude for the mind that allows me to come up with very very creative solutions to get a glass of water from the sink to the sofa, to get my fountains filled, to take clothes from the hamper to laundry room, to get my purse contents and briefcase contents into a backpack that’s elegant and yet functional (glad I didn’t give this one away)., for the iPhone4 for the movies I get to watch in bed because I don’t have cable TV and for the creative pulley system I designed to get stuff (ie. phone, TP, water bottle etc) from downstairs to upstairs without lugging or falling.
My gratitude is for the people who have said they won’t help me or be available to help me because I know that some day Creator will put something in their path that shows them the mistake.
My gratitude is HUGE for those that have stepped up to help:
- when my sink suddenly started flooding after I’d dropped a chocolate shake that went everywhere and was trying to clean up only to discover that the sink was flooding,
- when I couldn’t figure out how to get the bags from my trip upstairs with stuff I’d need later
- when it was too difficult to even think about feeding myself,
- when it was too exhausting to get out of the car one more time and put the mail into the box at the Post Office
- when my trash cans had been put out by someone and then some random person brought them back to the top of the driveway when they’d been out for days because there’s no way I could get them anywhere on crutches
Well, gratitude is everywhere and ever greater and ever deeper for the healing modalities I’ve created and learned along the past 20 years. I know that having no pain during this process and the doctors saying that the healing is going faster than they’d seen is due to what I know and have done so many times for others and now myself.
Thank you for being here and supporting one of the missions I have been put on this earth to accomplish, share wisdom, energy, healing and peace with as many as I can.
What IF Your Spouse, Child, Co-worker Never Changes
Interesting concept to think that someone we love and we want to change. It’s also interesting to insist, even if only to ourselves, that we want those people in our life who are pestering us to be the way we want and everything will be better. Interesting idea also to KNOW that when you change then they do as well.
Here’s a lovely story about a couple whose son was born with severe autism. They wanted him to be like every other kid and so sent him to a special home to learn. The most amazing thing occurred. Read on:
“Would it be OK with you if your son never changed, never learned anything new, and was never able to do anything more than he can do right now?” said the therapist.
While at first this question produced (more…)
11 Myths That Destroy Your Prosperity
1. Think about money differently – not scarcity thinking. If you think you don’t have enough the energy then starts to manifest that exact thing. If you think you have enough and it’s not showing up fast enough then you are getting distracted with your consistent thought of having enough. The more distracted you are the more you’ll fall into the trap of scarcity and (more…)
Gratitude is an Attitude
Do you remember the last time you heard a song on the radio and the rest of the day or week you just couldn’t get it out of your thoughts? The phrase “Gratitude is an Attitude” has been on my mind for the past several weeks. It then began showing up in the strangest places around me like on the side of a bus and on a commercial on PBS and then the radio. Then as I was teaching a class one of the students nearly jumped out of her seat spouting information about gratitude. As I reflected to see where I could begin to help others shift and use gratitude in their lives. (more…)
