Sometimes life just sucks. It's inevitable. We have our ups and our downs. Today I want to teach you how to get over the hump of those down times so it won't affect you as much. Watch this video to learn more.

The first thing you need to do is realize that there is a lesson in this tough situation. Often it can take some time to realize what it is. If you can go into gratitude for the fact that you are about to learn something wonderful, then the situation will improve.

Also remember that everything is temporary. The saying, "This too shall pass." is important to remember.

So today, when you have something unexpected happen that is not so great, go into gratitude that a lesson is coming. Remind yourself that this too shall pass. This will help you get over that hump when things aren't going as you would like.

When I visited Scottsdale, Arizona, I was blessed to meet, Phillip Payne, an artist and owner of the Anticus gallery. Here is what he said about passion, challenges and art. Enjoy!

Phillip started sculpting when he was 14 and opened his first gallery when he was 19. He is a big believer in art because it makes us stronger and more impactful as human beings.

He says, “To create art is to bare your soul in the hopes you will find a kindred spirit in the hearts of someone else.” 

You can create anything whether it is a business or art or a connection. We do this by being vulnerable, honest and looking for what your gifts are so you can give them to the public. 

Use your gifts not to become rich and famous, but how it can serve a need in the community.

He has manifested many of his dreams on his bucket list because as he states, “I say it out loud, live it proud and really give it everything I have every day.”

He has experienced challenges in his...

Ask and ye shall receive is such a popular phrase. That is what we are going to do this week.  Our next manifesting experiment is going to be asking for a specific concrete answer.

Watch the video to learn how to ask concrete questions so the Universe can bring us what we desire.

We have to be very careful for what we ask for.

I had a client that said she REALLY wanted to start her own business. Within four hours, she got laid off.

This was a great opportunity to start living her dream immediately.

This is also why we need to be exact when asking the Universe for what we would love.

For the next 48 hour experiment, you will think of a concrete, exact answer you would love to have an answer to.

When I did this experiment, I was struggling financially and was worried about how to pay off my debt. I needed to know if I should consolidate my credit cards or get a loan from the bank.

I asked the Universe which option I should choose.

When driving home from church, I passed a...

Today we are going to prove that our energetic vibration will get us what we would love to have in our life.

The next experiment is called the Volkswagen Jetta Principle which shows us that the answers are always there, but often we don’t see them.

We overlook countless amounts of information every day.

When you go into a store there are thousands of items, but we focus on what we need to get and overlook everything else in the store.

When my daughter had a canker sore, I went to the toothbrush isle that I had visited many times to look for something to relieve her pain. On the top shelf was a mouthwash that worked wonders in healing the canker sore. 

It was ALWAYS THERE. I just had not NOTICED it because I had never looked for it before. 

For our next experiment of 48 hours, we will set our intent on noticing what is in our environment.

On day one, pick a specific color car that is unusual. Keep your eye out for how many you see.

I picked the color light blue that I...

The next few weeks are going to be SO MUCH FUN. We will be doing experiments to help us realize our energetic force and the power we truly have within us to create.

Watch this video to learn about your Field of Potentiality when it comes to manifesting what you would love to come into your life.

Pam Grout states, “The Field of Potential (God, Universe, our Higher Power) is not a person, therefore you cannot bug him. The Field of Potential is a power, an unseen energetic force. It isn’t finite or limited. You can certainly ask as much of it as you would like.

We need to think of God more like we think of electricity. Electricity doesn’t care who plugs in a curling iron and doesn’t need proof we are good enough to make it work.”

This week’s experiment will take 48 hours because we want to give the Universe a specific time to give us what we would love to know or manifest. 

The experiment will be to ask for a UNIQUE UNEXPECTED BLESSING.

John Kabat-Zinn wrote Wherever You Go There You Are. He made an amazing point about staying in the moment no matter what situation you are involved. Watch this video for some insight on being happy no matter what your circumstances.

We tend to think if we were in a different job or a different relationship or on a vacation, life will be better.

This falls under “The grass is always greener on the other side.”

The problem is no matter what vacation you go on or what job you are working, you are still there.

You still have the same attitude and the same goals. 

So instead of wanting to be somewhere else thinking that will make you happy, be peaceful in the moment.

Love WHERE YOU ARE.

Do not give up on your goals and dreams, but find happiness in your current situation.

I heard a story from Wayne Dyer in which he talked about meeting 2 people on his walk along the beach in Hawaii.

A man was considering moving there and asked what the people were like. Wayne asked...

Jim Carrey speaks powerful words about the Universe. This is something that you can truly take to heart.  Watch this video.

It is wonderful to be grateful for what we have, but we can also use gratitude to improve the lives of others.

Watch the attached video to see how we can help transform another’s life to bring health, wealth and happiness. 

Rhonda Byrne, in the book The Magic, says, “Energy flows where you intention goes. When you direct the energy of gratitude toward another person’s needs, that’s where the energy goes.

Gratitude is an invisible but real force of energy and coupled with the energy of your desire is just like having a magic wand.”

Think of three people you know are struggling. You can get their picture to add energy to your visualization.

Look at the picture and then close your eyes for one minute and visualize the person’s health, wealth or happiness fully restored.

Then, feel grateful as if you are receiving this news. 

Say, “Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.”

Because the Universe has provided what they wanted and what...

During the month of November many of us give thanks for the fun stuff, but do we give thanks for our challenges as well? 

Watch the attached video on how to increase your abundance regardless of your current situation.

It’s important to have an “Attitude of Gratitude” no matter what is going on in our lives. 

For example, when I was a sign language interpreter, I broke my hand and had to be out of work for over a month. 

I went from pity and worry to an “Attitude of Gratitude” and realized how I can be thankful for my hand.

I became appreciative on how easy it was to wash my hair or sign my name. There were so many things I took for granted before my hand was damaged.

In those moments of your life that don’t feel so great, change it to an “Attitude of Gratitude” and be thankful for those harsh moments.
