DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 21 – “Overcoming Fear and Doubt”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 21 – “Overcoming Fear and Doubt”

Today’s Body Connection: One of our biggest challenges is to overcome the fears, doubts, and worries related to our body image. Even when we have reached our ideal weight or we lose a few inches, the old fear tapes of self-hatred becomes our focus. We can always find something about our appearance that displeases us. Remember, the goal is how we feel, never about what we look like. When we overcome the fear of the appearance transformation becomes easier.

Today’s Meditative Thought: Martin Luther King Jr. was advised by his associates not to rock the boat. Gandhi’s friends told him that the British government would never release its stranglehold on India. Yet both men remained strong in their convictions and in the integrity of their souls. If you know, that you know, that you know, you are in the integrity with your soul, push on, and keep your faith. Stand on the ground that you are anchored in. Remember that God has your back. Sometimes we are called to stand-alone with God, anchored in the ‘knowingness’ that truth is on our side.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, remember that every great revelation, idea, or transformation has its moments of fear and doubt. When you begin to experience uneasiness, embrace it and ask, “What part of me is being triggered?” Awareness is the focus.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I stand and push past my fears. I embrace my greatness. Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 20 – “Begin Again”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 20 – “Begin Again”

Today’s Body Connection: Everyday is a new day; therefore every workout is a new workout. Every time we step into our physical practice, we can begin again, creating a unique experience. During weight training, each repetition within a set represents a new beginning. We must learn to focus on one repetition at a time, from the start to the end. As we move the weight, we learn to breathe into the movement, so that each inhale announces the start of the work and each exhale indicates the finish. Today, begin again with your awareness that every day, workout, exercise, repetition, breath, and moment is new.

Today’s Meditative Thought: Once you have paused and taken a breath, you are ready to begin again. Life is a series of starting over. Every breath is new, every moment is a beginning, and every idea is a fresh beginning in the mind of God. When life gets a little interesting, just push the restart button and begin again.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, remember you can always begin again; just stop, breathe, and be still. Simply push your personal restart button. Decide what is the best way for you to begin again and do it as often as you need.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I breathe in the new breath of God. Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 19 – “The Solution”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 19 – “The Solution”

Today’s Body Connection: Remember, the solution to all your body issues is you. The power to transform from deconditioned to healthy starts with awareness. When we identify a need to change the way we live, we must take action. Don’t wait for “one day” to show up. Whatever we put off today will take more effort to do tomorrow. The solution is your aspiration to do something. When the inspiration comes to shift your life, remind yourself that you are the answer. Only you can do the work.

Today’s Meditative Thought: Remember, the answer is always at a higher level of consciousness than the issue. Einstein said, “You can never solve a problem on the level on which it was created.” If we look for the answer with the same consciousness we will get more of the same problems. Today, think higher, reach for a solution that can only be found within your soul. Remember, the answer is always within you, ready to be revealed.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, remember there is always a solution to every problem. When a challenge arises, take the time to step back and remove yourself from the situation. Go out, take a walk or a run, and clear your head. Move into prayer time to ask your spiritual authority to reveal the answer. You might need to do this several times today, but it is worth it.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I remember to breathe and relax. I can make it through anything with God’s help. Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 18 – “Release the Fight”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 18 – “Release the Fight”

Today’s Body Connection: When we remember to let go of our impulse to resist change, we become aware of our wholeness and transformation becomes easy. We hold on to our old stories of “there is not enough time to work out“ or “my family is big-boned so I am destined to be fat.” The truth is that we can transcend any of our old perceptions about our body-temples. We have the ability to transform our lives and live a healthy lifestyle. There is a deep desire within our souls to expand and be the divine expression that we are. Release the fight and surrender to an everyday practice of healthy living.

Today’s Meditative Thought: Mother Teresa would never go to an anti-war rally because she stood for peace. She said, “I was once asked why I don’t participate in anti-war demonstrations. I said that I will never do that, but as soon as you have a pro-peace rally, I’ll be there.” This makes perfect sense to me. Whatever we fight against will persist in our life. If our mind is focused on the things we don’t want, we will get more of what we don’t want. Have you ever heard the saying, “Where your attention goes, energy will flow”? Keep your mind steadfast on your intentions and goals. It’s time to free your mind from the idea that you must fight for anything. Transformation is about becoming the vision, not fighting it.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, remember the key to peace is releasing the fight. Whenever you become aware that you are resisting God, take a breath and surrender. Let go and fall into the arms of God. Just say yes.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I release the fight and embrace God. Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 17 – “The Bridge”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 17 – “The Bridge”

Today’s Body Connection: Our physical practice helps to bridge the gap between our desires and our greatness. When we set the intention for a life that is fulfilling, full of health and fitness, it is the action that brings the vision to life. When we participate in our workouts, it connects us to a space of infinite possibilities. Completing a vigorous training session or a long run reveals our greatest ability and potential to achieve anything and everything that we can conceive. Remember, the moments when you climbed to the top of a hill on a hike, or finished a bike ride, or when your trainer said, “well done,” at the conclusion of a workout, your energy is so high and the vibration is out of this world. We must ride that inspirational wave; it helps us to pursue our dreams. Apply that powerful feeling to everything you do. Watch your life expand beyond your current paradigm.

Today’s Meditative Thought: Remember, spiritual growth can only be achieved with a willingness to surrender to the practice. Meditation, prayer, affirmations, sacred study, fellowship, and generosity are the bridges to transformation. When we say yes to our own spiritual and physical growth, there must also be an action for the fulfillment of the intention.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, remember that what bridges our consciousness with God is the ability to connect with God. During your time in meditation, cultivate your connection to your higher self. Do not move until you know that you know.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, my practice expands my life, and there is nothing I can’t do. I stand in the knowing that I am one in God. Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 16 – “True Power”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 16 – “True Power”

Today’s Body Connection: What is it you really want? It’s more than to get into your skinny jeans or to lose weight for a wedding. Of course, reaching a certain weight by an important date can be a surface goal, but what happens when you reach that day or when it’s over? The majority of people will lose weight for the special day, and when it has come and gone, they gain the pounds back. The reason for the re-gain, or the “yo-yo” weight syndrome, is lack of vision. Again, I ask what do you really want? I invite you to see the underlying intention for working out. We train to connect with our true self, health, and wholeness; we work out to know true power, and true power is the recognition of the Divine within. When we connect to our physical strength, it is the spiritual strength that is empowered. Remember, there is always a deeper intention for your external desires. Your desire to feel better is really the intention to know your wholeness. Your physical practice will help you to know the true meaning of healing.

Today’s Meditative Thought: The only power we have is our connection to our higher self. Only from Unity consciousness can we achieve our greatness. True power is going after what we want with the authority of God fueling our every move. Know who and what lives inside your soul. Every day cultivate your relationship with your higher self. Remember, there is no mountain we cannot climb in God.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, remember that we are in union with God. Take the time to journal. As you move through your day, observe your connection with God. Make a list of everything and everyone that reveals your divine connection. When you become aware, write it down and affirm it with a simple mantra, “I am one with…”

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I am one with true divine power. Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 15 – “Low State or High State”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 15 – “Low State or High State”

Today’s Body Connection: Remember, living a healthy life is based on awareness, a divine mindfulness that you cannot separate the mind from the body and the body from the spirit. It is all connected. Health and fitness is a higher state of consciousness. When we eat, we must remember that it is a spiritual experience. Not only do we pray and thank God for the food we are about to receive, but eating is also about nourishment of the body-temple, home of your spirit. Our fitness has more than a superficial meaning, if we choose. There is a difference between working out to know your divinity and working out to get into your skinny jeans. It’s not about wrong our or right, just different levels of consciousness. It’s about our awareness and our intentions. To know your divine self is a high state of consciousness; to drop a dress size or two is a low state of consciousness. The higher state will always bring us inner peace, while the lower state’s recompense is fleeting and disappointing. Choose the higher state.

Today’s Meditative Thought: The low state of consciousness is when we are asleep to the greatness that is within ourselves. The high state of consciousness is when this greatness is activated and in use. Today is the day we wake up and set the planet ablaze. It is time to transform our world and it begins with you.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, remember you can be in a low state of consciousness or a high state of consciousnesses. Today is a day of awareness. Stay awake!

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I remember the time to transform is now. And so it is. Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 14 – “Let Your Shift Shine ”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 14 – “Let Your Shift Shine ”

Today’s Body Connection: Remember, everything you do is to enhance your life. Your transformation is for the purpose of “having life and life more abundantly.” When a shift happens on the outside, it is in direct relationship to the shift that is happening on the inside. There is a vibration and a light that you will shine. You will radiate Joy and, in turn, you will receive more Joy. It is the Law of Radiance; what you radiate you will receive back. Your workout will allow you to activate the best in your life. When you feel strong and healthy you inspire the people around you. Let your transformation shine; not only will people notice the physical change, they will see the light return to your eyes.

Today’s Meditative Thought: It’s up to you to bring your own Joy. Don’t wait for someone else to bring it; you could be waiting a long time. Joy is what you are, so activate it.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, remember that the only thing that is missing in your relationship is what you aren’t bringing. Your relationship is a reflection of your inner awareness. What you see as missing, is your invitation. If you see a lack of love, be more loving. If joy is what you think is missing, be more joyful. Bring the peace where you see chaos. It is up to you.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I remember to bring everything that is needed in all my relationships. Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 13 – “You Can Do Anything ”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 13 – “You Can Do Anything ”

Today’s Body Connection: Remember, dedication and consistency is key when transforming the body-temple. We must stay the course even when we don’t feel like it. On the days you just don’t feel like exercising the body, connect with your spiritual strength to get your motor going. Your transformation can only happen through God; lean on your inner power and allow it to carry you through the shift. There is nothing you cannot do when you are aware of your connection to the Divine. Twenty, 30 or even 50 pounds is nothing to Universe, so make God bigger than your transformation.

Today’s Meditative Thought: You have the power within you to heal the sick, build a bridge, feed the hungry, and grow a garden. You name it and you can do it. You can even move a mountain. Think about it; there is nothing you can’t do, so go and do it. You and the Father are one. I love Nike because the company’s slogan reminds us to just do it.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, remember there is nothing you cannot do with the power of God. Today, say yes to at least two things that you are afraid of.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I remember that I can do greater things in God than I have ever done before. And so it is. Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 12 – “It’s Already Within You ”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 12 – “It’s Already Within You ”

Today’s Body Connection: Have you ever said to yourself, “I will do that when I get healthier” or “I will take that dance class when I lose 15 pounds” ? Remember, the road to failure is paved with good intentions. One of the greatest challenges for transformation is procrastination. You can’t circle “one day” on the calendar. What are you waiting for? Health and fitness is already within you. Our birthright is to live a life that is vigorous and full of vitality. You have the power within you to do everything you set your mind to; it’s time to move your feet. Today, the waiting game stops. Understand that everything you are reaching for is already inside you; every goal and intention can only be fulfilled by understanding that you already have everything you need. You and your connection to God is the answer. Train as if you are already at your ideal body weight. Dance as if you have already dropped 15 pounds. Move with the mindset, “It is already done.”

Today’s Meditative Thought: When God created you; God poured every divine quality into you, leaving nothing out. You are a masterpiece, God’s divine idea. The Universe loves you so much that it created you, empowered you, and set you free to be you. Allow God to show up as your perfect self. Stop apologizing for being who you are. Celebrate your uniqueness; only you can do you, so do it big. Remember, everything you need is already in you.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, remember that everything is within you. You are missing nothing. Turn within to find your way. Spend time in meditation to allow your divine self to show up as you. Today is the day you stop waiting and begin doing everything that is on your “One Day” list.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I remember that I have everything that I need. Amen
