This Summer Liz Mitten Ryan has some very special Retreats available to you, and I wanted to share this video with you.

I’ve had the honour of interviewing Liz twice on Welcome Changes Radio, as well as reading her books and watching the DVD series. 

Her Retreat is on my vision board, and while I have almost made it there, twice, divine timing has not arrived yet.

Is it your time?

Watch the video.  If it resonates for you, contact Liz through http://equinisity.com and register.  Please let her know who sent you.

How do you feel?  That’s your truth speaking.

You know the difference.  Do you listen?

“There are two ends to the spectrum.  Fear is one end and it is false.  Love is at the other end and it is all [...]]]> How do you know what is true?  How do you know what is false?

How do you feel?  That’s your truth speaking.

“There are two ends to the spectrum.  Fear is one end and it is false.  Love is at the other end and it is all that is true.” ~ Premiere Edition (Prima) through Liz Mitten Ryan 

Do you feel fearful, or at peace?

Some will argue that fear keeps you safe.  Often, when our safety is in jeopardy, the decision to take us to safety is a quick and a peaceful one.  It’s never, “the house is one fire. Should I stay or leave?”  It’s a clean decision.

False Fear is not a clear and clean decision.  False fear is usually filled with shoulds and negative what if’s. 

Truth is filled with love and peace.

If you get a false fear, what do you do? 

You don’t always see the truth right away.  That’s okay!  Simply know that the false fear is a sign post that this is not the correct direction.

From that place you can begin to ask questions, and as you open up and turn away from the false fears, the truth will show itself.

JOY Challenge:

I choose to take action from a place of love, not fear today.

Suggestion:  A JOY Journal is a great place to ask those questions that come up when you don’t choose fear.

We judge ourselves.  We judge others.  It is simple.  Why do we not do it?

“You can lead a horse to water, but you [...]]]> We know the choices we have.  It seems so simple.  And yet we often choose that which does not serve us.  We make up reasons why we don’t or cannot.

We judge ourselves.  We judge others.  It is simple.  Why do we not do it?

“You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make him drink.  You can lead a man to pasture, but you can’t make him eat.” ~ Premiere Edition (Prima) through Liz Mitten Ryan

It is simple, and yet we make it hard.  We think too much.  We make stuff up.  We justify, and then we judge ourselves too.

What would it be like if we didn’t think?  What would it be like if we acted through instinct?  Is it possible we’d be happier?  Would we be more at peace?

JOY Challenge:

I give myself permission to act on my first instinct today.

“In one instant you can change the world.  If man were to [...]]]> Some people say “I am just one person” when they think of creating change.  It seems like a daunting task.  What kind of effect could I have on the world?  The truth is, each I does have an effect on the world.

“In one instant you can change the world.  If man were to change his mind; one mind at a time, a chain reaction (like nuclear fission) would occur.  Human minds like ours, are all joined.  It is a belief in isolation that creates the limits.  Simply let them go and a far greater world is yours, ours, and in the communion of spirit as it has always been.” ~ Premiere Edition (Prima) through Liz Mitten Ryan

The beauty of this is that it can take some of the pressure off.  It’s not your responsibility to change everyone’s mind.  It’s not your responsibility to make anyone else do anything.  You’re only responsible for changing your own mind, your own way of BEing in this world.

JOY Challenge:

What is one thing I can be, do or have differently that will contribute to the peace, love and joy of the planet?

Suggestions:  It can be as simple as recycling or composting.  It can be volunteering, contributing to a food bank, or even meditating on world peace.  It doesn’t matter what you choose.  It all makes a difference.

“We are all one, Human, Plant, Animal, Rock. – Every single little quark is united in the same cosmic soup.  There are spaces but no boundaries.  Boundaries are only thoughts.” ~ Premiere [...]]]> How do you limit yourself?  Do you say things like, “Because that’s who I am” or “It’s just the way things are”?

“We are all one, Human, Plant, Animal, Rock. – Every single little quark is united in the same cosmic soup.  There are spaces but no boundaries.  Boundaries are only thoughts.” ~ Premiere Edition (Prima) through Liz Mitten Ryan

Are these limiting thoughts serving you?  Are they moving you closer to your dreams and intentions?  Or are they the limits that keep you “safe”?  What are they keeping you safe from?  Success?  Failure? 

What would happen if you succeeded?  What would happen if you didn’t succeed?  (Remember, you only fail if you stop.)

What if this limit is simply a small stone in the road that you’re bumping your toe up against?

What if you were lift your thoughts (foot) a little bit higher to step over the limit (stone)?

JOY Challenge:

What is one Boundary I would love to step over, and what would it take to step over it?
