DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 29 – Threefold Transformation”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 29 – Threefold Transformation”

Today’s Body Connection: As your journey unfolds, you will become aware of your personal trinity: the mind, body, and spirit can never be separated; they are aspects of self, making up the one. Each piece represents an intricate part of our lives that simultaneously affects other parts. The way we think affects the way the body moves. How the body feels can influence the way we think. Any spiritual practice can be swayed by how we think and feel. The Hindu practice of Yoga is to prepare the body for meditation. If the body is stretched and relaxed, it can sit for longer periods of time in the stillness, allowing for deeper realization and cultivation. Awareness is key; understanding that the three are connected allows your journey to be full and effective.

Today’s Meditative Thought: Transformation is threefold: Mind, Body, and Spirit. It’s all or nothing. All three are connected. You can’t truly transform your body, your relationship, and/or your life until you shift the way you think. And every transformation must come from God within your spirit that knows it must be set free. Every malady in your life has a spiritual solution, and once we tap into that knowledge our life will change, our bodies with shift, and our lives will be better. We will experience a lasting transformation. We will stop riding the train of change and we will be on the ship of transformation.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, put into practice the tools that will shift your spirit; change the way you think, and your life will expand. Commit to the physical, mental, and spiritual practice that is working for you. Push the restart button again, if need be. Get moving and/or keep moving no matter what.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, my transformation is to Mind, Body, and Spirit. And so it is. Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 27 – “Transformation Is Growth”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 27 – “Transformation Is Growth”

Today’s Body Connection: Remember, we are on this path to grow. When we speak of transformation, we speak of being better and more of our authentic self, and that require growth. Whenever you say yes to being better, there is always a time of “stirring up the pot,” or what is known as a “growth edge.” Transformation can sometimes feel like an agitation of the soul, an uncomfortable space that we would like to run from. We need to hold tight, stand firm, and allow the growth to happen. Transformation of the body can be one of the must uncomfortable experiences, but remember, physical challenges will lead to a breakthrough.

Today’s Meditative Thought: Transformation is about growth, being more than you ever thought you could be. When we truly shift our conscious thoughts, we become stronger, more anchored in infinite possibilities. Our willingness to grow and be more is the key. Your yes is the key that opens the door of life. Your consent to be more is your gateway to success.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, begin your transformation with a big, fat Yes.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I say a big, fat yes to growth. And so it is. Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 10 – “The Jumpstart”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 10 – “The Jumpstart”

Today’s Body Connection: The fitness “jumpstart” is that surge of energy you get before you start your practice. Truth be told, it is the up-leveling of your vibration, fueled with your intention. It is the moment you have agreed to get out of bed and exercise. It is the moment you choose an apple over a candy bar. It is that second you become aware that your transformation is about the inside and how you feel. Your “jumpstart” is the moment you say yes to allowing yourself to be whole and complete.

Today’s Meditative Thought: Transformation can be empowered with your words, thoughts, and language. Use affirmations like, “I can,” “I will,” and “I am able,” to jumpstart your life. Our mental enthusiasm will fuel all our intentions.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, speak only words that up-level your transformation. Consciously move through your day with the awareness that your language coagulates into your existence. Be aware of each time you feel that surge of energy, the moment you know you have committed to your yes. Acknowledge your moments of awakening.

Affirmation: Just for this moment… just for this breath, I jumpstart my transformation with the power of Love. Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 26 – “God Is Bigger than Your Appetite”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 26 – “God Is Bigger than Your Appetite”

Today’s Body Connection: Remember, God is bigger than any craving. When we trust our higher power to support our intentions, miracles happen. Sometimes, when our intentions seem impossible, we must turn to a divine force to see us through. Live above the facts and the situation. Shift your consciousness from how much weight you need to lose to how perfect your inner being is. There is a divine space in you that can never be harmed or changed.

Today’s Meditative Thought: Allow God to be bigger than your problems. We can turn everything over to the Universe and allow it to work on our behalf. Nothing is too great for God to handle. When the road of life gets bumpy, we can breathe easy; God’s got this one.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, remember to make God bigger than anything in your life. When a thought comes to mind, right after say, “God’s bigger than that.”

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I remember to be bigger, and shine brighter, than my paradigm. 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 22 – “The Example of Health”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 22 – “The Example of Health”

Today’s Body Connection: How do you live your life? What do you represent? Is your way of life an example of healthy living? We make choices every day; and people are watching. Once we have said yes to health and fitness, it’s time to become the yes. In yoga we talk about the becoming of each pose as opposed to the doing. Health and fitness is more than something we do; it’s a lifestyle, a way of living. Today is the day we change the way we see exercise; we do it because we are it. Be the face of health; it’s time to walk the talk.

Today’s Meditative Thought: Remember, you have said yes to a journey of transformation and this road requires a commitment to walk the talk. When we download, and commit to living the shift, our existence has meaning. One mantra to help anchor our minds is, “I do because I am.” We love because we are love. We bring the peace because we are peace in the flesh. We exercise because we are the healthy, divine expression of God. Remember, our actions should be the reflection of who we are.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, remember that you are the image and likeness of God; therefore you are amazing. As you move through your day, be mindful of who and what you are.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I remember that I am the image and likeness of God and I am amazing. And so I am. 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 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 10 – “Never Alone”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 10 – “Never Alone”

Today’s Body Connection: Sometimes it might appear that you are the only one in your life trying to get in shape. You might think that you are the only one on a diet, or that you are the only person in the world trying to loose 20 pounds. Remember, when you say yes to transformation, you are supported by the Universe; you are not alone. Your intention to be more is your membership in a very exclusive club; you are a part of a tribe that is awake and aware. There are millions of enlightened beings running side by side with you as you travel the road of illumination. Surround yourself with like-minded people who share your desire to grow. Connect with people who inspire you and help to up-level your consciousness. Make friends with folks at your gym. Take the time to search for people who are living the life you want. My mother always says, “If you hang out with nine unhealthy people, sooner or later you will become the tenth.” You are not alone so you might as well travel with your kindred spirits. Remember, fellowship is key to your transformation.

Today’s Meditative Thought: Don’t be afraid to be by yourself. Sometimes we need our “me time” to reconnect with our “God time.” Be free to remove the distractions of life. Take the time to simply get away and abide in God. But remember the truth: you are never alone. You are connected to God and the Universe. Everywhere you go you are a part of the collective.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, remember that “alone” is different than “lonely.” The light is everywhere that you are, so, really, we can never be truly alone. The action plan for today is simple: know your connection to the Universe. Every chance you get, remind yourself that you are connected.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I remember that I am never alone; God is always with me. Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Surrendering – Day 30 “God’s Time”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Surrendering – Day 30 “God’s Time”

The Body Connection: Our biggest lessons on this path of the body connection are simple: 1. Fitness is a journey with no destination and no time limits. It is a practice required for the rest of our existence on this side of life. 2. We must release the goal of looking like something or someone to measure our health and fitness. What we see in the magazine or how another appears to us is our own perception. 3. Love yourself through every step of the journey. 4. Do not put a time limit on your fitness. When we use a time marker to drop a certain amount of pounds, we set ourselves up for failure. During your journey to or back to fitness, recognize that you are in God’s perfect time and that in that space all things are happening exactly how they need to work. Everything happens in God’s time, so stop looking for shortcuts.

Meditative Thought: Surrender to God’s time. Sometimes we want our blessings when we want them. But God’s time is infinite, so our blessings are happening right now. In our human mind we have created ideas for what our blessings should look like and when they should happen. Take God out of your personal box. No matter what our goals, desires, or intentions are, we must release our personal timeline. The Universe does not work on our terms. God is an all-powerful, all-knowing life force that has it in control. Once we recognize that God just is, without conditions or favorites, and is not handing out blessings faster to those who worship more, we will free up the divine flow to happen in our lives.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, free your mind to the infinite outpouring of God’s Love. Meditate on the simple manta, “Everything is happing in divine perfect timing.” Know that your transformation is happening at the pace it needs to happen. Journey any thoughts or insights that might come up before, during, and after meditation. It is important for you to keep a record of all your Ah-ha moments.

Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I free my mind with the love of God. Amen
