Consciousness Creates Reality, for Real?

This post contains affiliate banner links. For more info, see my disclosures.   Consciousness creates reality because all of our perceptions of reality are unique. Whether you buy into this notion or not, that doesn’t make it any less true.  Yes, I recognize that this may come across as hooky-spooky craziness, but let me present you a different perspective. Do you like our present reality?  I know that it’s entirely possible that you do, and if that is so, rock

Are You For Rather Than Against?

When taking a stand, it is important to be for rather than against. Why does that matter?  Because when you are for a thing, you are proactive and working on action.  When you are against a thing, you are reactive, and usually working with inaction. Carl Jung said, “What you resist not only persists, but will grow in size.”  Consciousness creates reality.  Because of this truth, when we stand against a thing, since that is where all of our focus

What are You Standing Up For?

Standing up for what is right is not always the easiest choice.  But it is still a good choice. In the medieval reenactment game I have been playing for almost 27 years now, there is currently a leader, a “King”, who has been openly racist, and continually taking inappropriate actions regularly.  In a society where most of the people I know are open, welcoming, and otherwise decent to one another, this is a terrible disappointment. A friend of mine took

How Does Embracing Change Work?

Embracing change, rather than resisting it, serves us best. Nobody denies that change is scary.  Humans seek comfort, be it in our homes, relationships, clothing, foods we consume, and so forth.  There is a certain level of comfort in the familiar.  As such, when that which we are used to changes, it can be extremely disconcerting. Like it or not, change will occur.  That is the nature of the universe.  Change is a constant.  Embracing change, therefore, will smooth any

How Does Caring Empower?

Caring for others will always increase Positivity. Human beings are social creatures.  Yes, there are introverts, extroverts, and ambiverts, but we all still have a basic need for some interaction.  Even the most introverted people I know still give and receive care. Caring and empathy are connected.  I believe that every reasonable person cares when they see others hurting, whether that is hurting spiritually, emotionally or physically.  Empathizing with people going through things can build tremendous positivity. When we express

What’s Your Opinion?

Everyone is capable of having an opinion. Being entitled to an opinion, however, has frequently been carried to a dangerous and unhealthy extreme. What’s the difference?  Let’s say that it is my opinion that the moon is made of green cheese.  We know of course that it’s not.  We have physical evidence returned from the moon to disprove me.  When you show me a moon rock, and explain to me that the composition of the moon is not cheesy, I

With the choice of any new path, there will be risk. Most of us spend at least some, often really much, of our time in the familiar. We find a comfort zone, and we do what we can to stay within it. It is a safe place to occupy, and it feels like a good fit. The problem is, things change. This is probably the most unavoidable fact in the entire universe. Everything will change. It may be unbelievably slow

What thoughts, feelings and actions will put me on the Path I desire? This is going to be different for me than it is for you, but today I am going to take my first New Year’s Action and share some of it here. First, let me reiterate an idea I began to explore over three years ago. Lots of people make New Year’s Resolutions. They come up with ideas to make changes and take actions…but they never seem to

What am I thinking? What am I feeling? Am I going to create a reality I want, or a reality I don’t want? What thoughts, feelings and actions will put me on the Path I desire? These are the questions I need to answer. These are the questions that will allow me to acquire the path I should truly be on, and to get myself to the place I really want to be. There is one more question, however, that

Be careful what you wish for; be conscious of your thoughts. Consciousness creates reality. I have stated this here repeatedly, because it is a fact. I have seen proof of this in more than one instance, and I am acutely aware that you have to be careful what you put your focus on. I know this. I am completely aware of it. When I have used it consciously, I have manifested amazing things in my life. I healed from severe
