A Northern California Journey…Enjoy!

 

There is beauty, in all journeys…

Relax, there’s no rush…

Light will always shine through…

The distance… if you choose, can always look spectacular!

Magnificent!   -  Tall Redwoods

Mysterious accomplishments…

Eventually, the clarity will show…

Your ship will find the shore…

Cross life’s bridges with grace…

Creating balance is one of life’s vital ingredient…

Reach for the highest peak…

Life’s door will always be open…

Home is what you create it…

Beauty is how you look at it…

Majestic mystery…

ADDICTION versus AUTHENTICITY

Posted by Margi on Jun 25, 2012

I am always mesmerized by my friend and spiritual angel Morgine Jurdan and her beautiful messages. I would like to share what she wrote with you this month. Hope there is something beautiful you can take away and utilize in your life. Enjoy!

Are Your Unconscious Addictions holding your Authenticity Hostage?

It is said, we cannot release and let go of something unless we KNOW it is there in the first place, just like an alcoholic recognizing their habit, or a drug user, a child molester and so on.  In my waking up process, I have come to recognize I have been living many different kinds of addictions!  Habitual patterns of thinking and beliefs,  action and ways of being, which have prevented me from making “conscious choices” in my life.  Things which prevented me from adopting new patterns, like writing daily, or exercising, reading, doing something joyful.  I have spent thousands of dollars on workshops, books, coaching to become myself, to be “more authentically me” without a huge amount of success! I often lacked passion and purpose and felt like I was the “only one” being left behind!

Over two decades ago I read a book by  Annne Wilson Schaef called “When Society Becomes Addict” and I learned there were many different kinds of addictions. In addition to addictions to physical things like food and drugs, we can also be addicted to Perfectionism, Forgetfulness, Dependency, Negativism, Tunnel Vision, Frozen Feelings, Judgmentalism and so much more!!  Have you ever promised yourself to spend less time on the computer checking emails, and somehow it rarely happened? You intended to only eat a couple squares of that chocolate bar, or a handful of nuts…. and yet a half hour later, they are all gone? Your body felt full after eating only half a plate of very delicious food, yet before you got up from the table, the plate was clean!  You really want to take a walk every day and easily quit. You can also be addicted to exercising daily no matter if you feel sick, daily meditation, using certain brands of products and so much more!

I am coming OUT of the Closet because some of you might find yourself unconsciously being imprisoned by your own addictive habits as well! You have been searching for answers and they lie right within your own grasp!  If you cannot let go of drinking your coffee for just a week, checking emails many times a day, exercising no matter what, even taking a shower, there is something else running your life! I remember one of the hardest homework assignments I had in a class and the teacher really pegged me well! I had to leave my bed totally unmade for a week! It about drove my “neatness freak inside me” crazy!!! It seems silly, however, I was traumatized every day looking at that messy bed and what would other people think about me???? 

Yet I realized that week, how “habitual” my life had become!! This week I woke up to this fact again, and how I have been living a lot on “automatic,” instead of making Conscious Choices moment by moment!  I simply cannot live My Authenticity when I allow these patterns to hold me hostage any more!! I cannot live the real me by playing small, refusing to change and do new things, step out in front of people and take risks, stop doing the same old things while expecting new results!!  Cheri Huber taught me, “How you do anything is how you do everything.”   I tried, very unsuccessfully, to prove her wrong!!

I could go on, and I will end here. I just wanted to share this Awakening Moment  because perhaps in my willingness to be Vulnerable here, you might see some part of yourself looking back in the mirror.  I have given up showering for a week in the past,  just to show myself I could live through it and still be accepted by the world at large! Then I found many people in Europe only shower once a week! I remember a Feldenkrais class where our homework was to “intentionally do something a different way” every day. Brush our teeth with an opposite hand, or eat with our hands instead of a fork, drive a different way to work, eat a new food, and so on. Our bodies often are totally imprisoned by the Habitual Ways we move every single day of our lives without any effort to change. We walk, eat, get dressed, drive our car without thinking about how we are moving our bodies, and so even though the body hurts, we have become addicted to moving a certain way and refuse to change, even to release the pain.

If you desire to live a life of PASSION and AUTHENTICITY, you might need to be more Aware to where you have become unconscious in your day and begin to make changes.  Living Authentically, requires listening to, and following our intuitive, loving, inner guidance.  We cannot be authentic when we are living a life on automatic, conforming to habits which are not serving us, ways of thinking and being which allow us to “fit in,” instead of stand out, and which prevent us from making more conscious choices and Following Through with them every day!! 

Making Conscious Choices allows our Magnificence, our Uniqueness, our Authenticity to shine through and the world desires this NOW more than ever!!  Are you living your life or is your life living you?  What can You let go of this week or change, to see if something is holding You hostage? What is something you can do in a totally New way?

Loving and Appreciating Myself, and each of you!! Morgasmic Morgine

Crossings in Life…

Posted by Margi on Mar 28, 2012

 

There are certain times and moments in our lives that come to pass when we must cross a bridge to get to the other side of an experience, an issue, a situation or simply another aspect of our life. These moments are not intended to create chaos or misdirection, on the contrary, the intention and good will is to help our soul see things from a diverse perspective, a new point of view. Life crossings are intended to help us enrich our growth, to allow our soul to mature and to help us evolve into sacred spiritual enlightenment.

As we come upon bridges that we must cross in life the new paradigm allows us to view and feel life in a way that is different from how and what we usually view and feel. Life is about changes; it’s about new experiences. It’s about moving to a new and deeper level of spirit so that the soul can radiate in wisdom. After all, the soul’s journey is about reaching for the stars and arriving at its brightest spark.

What would it be like in life if things always stayed the same? If the colors that shine in a season never changed? How would we feel if the soul never experienced the true significance of joy? The shifts and changes that occur in life create and allow the heart to open to a new and glorious endeavor. By crossing bridges in life it leads us to fresh and invigorating means of breathing. It’s a grand gift from the universe.

Take a moment and ask yourself what issue, situation, or simply aspect of your life needs a bridge to be crossed? What in your soul wishes a different point of view? How can you shift certain energies to bring a greater sense of peace, joy and harmony in your world? This year is about moving from the old and bringing in the new. We’re 3 months into the year and already we feel the shifts upon us. The initial steps across the bridge are being made.

Give yourself permission to move through your voyage in life by releasing, surrendering and crossing the bridges to a new light, a new understanding, a new look at situations or experiences in your life that deserve a greater perspective. Begin a new passage of your soul today. Review, refresh, and rejuvenate. We’re discovering a rebirthing taking affect. Join the metamorphosis. You are crossing the bridge and becoming your own butterfly ~ fly.

Angels Among Us

Posted by Margi on Dec 24, 2010

Tis’ the Season to be Jolly and Blessed!

Gift yourself a moment at this time and graciously reflect on all the blessings that have been bestowed on you by others; family, friends, acquaintances and strangers. You may have had moments when a kind soul helped you without your asking or perhaps by those that you had asked. You may have passed a stranger along your journey that had gifted you a smile, held the door open for you when you needed it, or simply offered you to go first in a grocery line.

This season more than any other throughout the year is the most sacred cue to take a moment and truly tap into your heart to recollect all the angels among you that have paved the way to help make your journey possible.  You may find that you consciously remember some beautiful angels and others you may not, know that it is the intention of love that you send out that counts either way. Light and love radiate the grandest force in the Universe, peace. Love is all you need.

So I invite you gift yourself this present moment in closing your eyes, quieting your mind and sending a warm message of gratitude to your higher self, your spirit, the Universe and oh, of course your heavenly angels in gifting your life with precious Earth Angels among you!

Happy Holidays and a Blessed New Year to Everyone!

Just Be…

Posted by Margi on Apr 29, 2010

It’s the end of the month and I feel a gentle nudge from my guides who wish to share a message with us once again. Currently, I am overwhelmed, tired from working on the road, and somewhat stressed and tense from life’s events. I’m home now and I feel the push to work on a new message from my guides. Quietly I ask and patiently I listen. Without hesitation, this is what I hear: JUST BE. So I take in a deep breath and release and begin to feel the stress of a busy life move through and out of me. I am left with peace. I sense rejuvenation and calm – stillness in the moment.

What an important message. The guides and angel beings are here to help our lives and create it to truly be simple this month. Take a moment out of your busy schedule and for a moment JUST BE. Invite the light of love in and be calm with yourself for a minute or two (you deserve this treat! Yes YOU!) Try this on a daily basis, I promise that there is so much to gain – the continuous journey and re-connection of LIFE. Your life balanced – in joy. Enjoy!
