DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: 30 Days of Faith, Hope, Prayer, and Gratitude – Day 8 “Treatments”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: 30 Days of Faith, Hope, Prayer, and Gratitude – Day 8 “Treatments”

Today’s Body Connection: The word treatment means action and management. When I think of body treatments what comes to mind is healing and recovery. Whether we are already physically active or just beginning our practice, we must remember our healing treatments and management. Stretching the body before and after every workout is key. Taking time to see your massage therapist allows you to activate deep recovery during your period of the physical transformation. A weekly healing session with your holistic practitioner takes you to a deeper level of physical, mental, and spiritual empowerment. Yes, we must work hard, but we must heal even harder. One of the most successful practices to repair the body is meditation. If we constantly breakdown the body without equally nurturing it, we will never know wholeness.

Meditative Thought: I attended The University of Transformational Studies and Leadership at the Agape International Spiritual Center, where we study a form of prayer called Affirmative Prayer; It’s also known as prayer treatments or mind treatments.” I am asked quite frequently what is the difference between prayer and a prayer treatment. The easiest way to differentiate between the two is to remember that prayer treatment is a prayer, but not every prayer is a treatment. Ernest Holmes says a treatment is when you acknowledge the Omniscience, Omnipotence, and Omnipresence of God and recognize man’s unity with spirit. During Affirmative Prayer, there are specific steps a spiritual practitioner conducts, 6 step in all: Gratitude, Recognition of God, Unification of the One, Realization of the truth, Thanksgiving, and Release. Each step aligns the mind and body, with the Divine. Today dive into your prayer practice so that you may know your authentic self.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, acknowledge the Omniscience, Omnipotence, and Omnipresence power of God in your prayer time. Speak a word about the greatness of the Universe.

Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I recognize the omnipresence of God. Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 13 – “Becoming Your Authentic Self”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 13 – “Becoming Your Authentic Self”

Today’s Body Connection: Transforming the Body-Temple means becoming your authentic self. Our birthright is to be full of light, living a healthy life, expressing wholeness, and vibrant. We are created in the image of perfection; therefore we should live a life that reflects perfection. I’m not talking about the surface idea of perfection, the external appearance of how we look, act, or behave. I am speaking of the divine presence of God that lives within our souls. When we approach the physical practice for the sole purpose of expressing our spiritual perfection, we become our authentic self; we live the real life we are meant to live.

Today’s Meditative Thought: To become more of your authentic self requires a connection with God. Cultivate your oneness consciousness with meditation. It is in the stillness that we know we are one with Spirit.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, sit in the stillness until you know you are one with God and that everything will be okay. Today, ask God to show you your authentic self and begin to live it.

Affirmation: Just for this moment… just for this breath, I embrace God and I live my authentic life. Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 25 – “Free Yourself”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 25 – “Free Yourself”

Today’s Body Connection: How many times have you talked yourself out of a training session simply by saying, “I can’t.” If you say you can’t do something, you are right. The truth is, you can if you are willing. Each workout begins with the simple belief that it is ‘accomplishable.’ When you begin to trust yourself to cut calories, you will begin to eat mindfully. When you free yourself from the “I can’t” attitude, everything is possible. Remember, your positive attitude will make every workout enjoyable.

Today’s Meditative Thought: Allow old habits to be put to death. In yoga, the last pose is the “corpse pose.” We die in the practice because it is finished; time to let it go. What are you holding on to that is dying a long, slow death? Free yourself, then raise up a new creation, with a new purpose. Remember, the power is within you. You can free yourself by letting go of the people, places, things, thoughts, and habits that no longer serve you.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, remember that which is dying, is dying for a reason: it no longer serves you. Time to identify what you need to let go. Start with the body-temple. If your language and thoughts are not kind and loving, it is time to release them.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I remember to free myself with Love. Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 24 – “The Right Place”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 24 – “The Right Place”

Today’s Body Connection: Any place is the right place to work out. You don’t need a gym to participate in a physical practice. Don’t allow your preconceived ideas of how workouts should be to stop your participation. What we see on the TV or in videos are only 10% of the choices for training the body. Healthy living, fitness, and wellness can be done anywhere. Commit to doing something every day for ten to 20 minutes and your life will expand. Dedicate at least one meal a day, if not all three, for healthy and mindful eating. Set the intention to make water your No. 1 source for quenching your thirst. Expand your options by increasing your awareness; anywhere and everywhere is the right place for health and fitness.

Today’s Meditative Thought: The scripture says, “Take off your shoes; you are standing on Holy ground.” The place you stand is sacred, not because it is designated as such, but because you bring the sacred with you; you only need to be aware of it. Everywhere you are God is in the mix. Everywhere you go you bring the Divine. Right this very moment claim the place you sit, stand, or lie as Holy ground. You are the light; therefore you are always in the right place.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, remember you are in the right place, space, and time for transformation; you only need to allow it to happen. When you find yourself in the way, trying to make something happen, step back, take a breath, and turn it over.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I remember that I am in the right place, right now. 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 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: Surrendering – Day 27 “Surrender to Absolute Power”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Surrendering – Day 27 “Surrender to Absolute Power”

The Body Connection: When we are mindful of what we put into our bodies, we begin the process of surrendering to God. Mindful eating accounts for 65% to 75% of health and fitness, and our journeys are fueled by what we eat. What we consume will affect the way our body acts, moves, and feels. A simple rule of thumb is if you want to feel alive, eat living foods. The nature of the Universe is perfect and absolute, so nature provides everything we need to survive. Live food has the nutrients we need for healthy living. Also, if we want to burn fat, we must burn calories. Eating less and being active is the key. Your eating is a spiritual experience if you allow it to be. Eat with a purpose; mindfully nourish the body-temple and commune with your higher self. Every morsel of living food comes from Source, designed to support you on your journey.

Meditative Thought: True power comes from surrendering to an absolute presence that is greater than our human incarnation. As you begin to grow spiritually, you will see that everything returns to God. Every situation is an opportunity to remember that the answer always lies within you. Connect with the Universal presence that is your essence. Allow the Universe to be the solution to all your challenges.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, make God bigger than your problems. When you become overwhelmed with all the things that are required for your personal transformation, remind yourself that God is bigger than all of this and that you are supported. Today, use affirmations to keep you on track.

Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I am one with God, and I am blessed. Amen

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS: 31 Days of Empowerment – Day 27 “Sharing Your Inner Vision ”

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS: 31 Days of Empowerment – Day 27 “Sharing Your Inner Vision ”

Meditative Thought: Today is the day to empower yourself and share your talents. Some of us have gifts that we take for granted or have talked ourselves out of sharing. What talent has Spirit placed in your heart that you are keeping for yourself? There are some who give freely to the collective. Thank you; you inspire the rest of us. But there are others with many gifts to share but who live in the mindset of “I am not good enough”, stepped beyond fear. Like the Nike add says, “Just Do It.” We need your blessing. We need your inspiration. Our evolution depends on each and every person expressing his or her talents. It is already good enough; it is already perfect in the Mind of God. Trust and don’t judge yourself. Spread your wings and fly. Your destiny is calling; will you answer?

Today’s Spiritual Assignment: Today, share your gift with one other person, then journal about the experience.

Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I am the tool that uplifts this planet. And so I am. And so I let it be. Amen

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS: 31 Days of Empowerment – Day 23 “Stillness for the Empowerment”

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS: 31 Days of Empowerment – Day 23 “Stillness for the Empowerment”

Meditative Thought: Empowerment is the recognition of the Creator that lives within. We can only know our divine power and our connection in the stillness. When we are in the quiet times and focused on who and what we are, our existence is empowered with purpose. When we can live in the “now moment,” we are truly free, free to be the light that inspired the world. When we immerse ourselves in meditation and commune with the Christ Consciousness within, the power of God unfolds in our lives. From the stillness we will find the power to do anything and everything.

Today’s Spiritual Assignment: Today is the day you choose stillness to know the truth. During your meditation, contemplate the power of God that lives within you. Cultivate the energy you feel and allow it to energize your daily activity.

Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, God is my meditation. And so I am. And so I let it be.

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS: 31 Days of Empowerment – Day 19 “The Power Is Grace”

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS: 31 Days of Empowerment – Day 19 “The Power Is Grace”

Meditative Thought: When we are empowered, life feels easy. But we must remember that the power we feel is God in action; grace is unfolding. Grace is how easy God makes our life flow. When we are in the divine zone, we are empowered to do anything and everything. Surrendering to the movement of God and stepping out of the way allows us to see Grace and to know that God is activated within our lives. When we connect with Grace we connect with the generosity of Spirit, a capacity to embrace love and to truly feel the power.

Today’s Spiritual Assignment: Today, step out of the way and allow grace to unfold. Take the time to be mindful of God in action. At the end of the day journal about your experience.

Affirmation: Just for this moment… just for this breath, I am free to activate God. I am free to see Power and Grace moving in my life.
