Points to Ponder The Insights of the 'Tao Te Ching'

The 'Tao Te Ching' has given me much to ponder over the years as I have been studying it's beauty and simplicity.

While I have many favorite tenets of the Tao, there is one in specific that caught my attention in my beginning studies of Feng Shui.

I would like to share this with you and invite you to hold these principles with you for a few weeks and just observe the wisdom of simplicity in your life.

"Thirty spokes on a cart wheel. . . . Go towards the hub that is the center. . . . but look, there is nothing at the center. . . . and that is precisely why it works. . . .

If you mold a cup. . . . you have to make it hollow. . . . It is the emptiness within it that makes it useful. . . .

In a house or room. . . . it is the empty spaces. . . . the doors, the windows. . . . that make it useable. . . .

They all use what they are made of. . . . to do what they do. . . . but without their nothingness. . . . they would be nothing."

I fell in love with the Tao when I read this, it was so simple and profound that it reminded me of the serene empty mind that is so needed to be effective.

We get so entangled in our worlds and with technology and relationships that we loose the essence of our nature.

It is our nothingness that is our true treasure.

To be without agenda and control and return to the inner sanctuary of peace and stillness so that we may remember our usefulness.

Without recognizing these empty spaces and realizing that it is the emptiness that creates the fullness.

To simply allow yourself to be still 5 minutes a day and connect with your original essence, that is all knowing and all loving.

Take time daily, for quiet acceptance of who you are and the joy of being here.
Your Spirit resides in the empty spaces of your life. . . . when we keep busy with to do lists, careers, relationships and agendas, we loose our connection to our true nature, a Spirit that is part of all of creation and simultaneously nowhere at all.

Put value on the nothingness of life and appreciate this simple philosophy of recognizing it is the emptiness of a cup that gives it purpose.

I hope you find the simplicity of this as beneficial as I have.

As Tom always says....Do Less and BE MORE

In Joy. . . . Anita

Points to Ponder ~ Everyday Miracles That Can Enrich Your Life

In the search for Life's GREAT experiences we are apt to overlook the little, everyday miracles which can tremendously enrich our lives if only we are aware of them.

Miracle 1

Discover the conscious awareness of your mind, body, and spirit in any given moment.

Stop for at least 10 minutes a day and concentrate on yourself and the amazing powers that you possess.

We are all individual instruments of the DIVINE and therefore have no less ability than the original source that we call GOD. You are GOD in the flesh and the power of creation resides within your mind, body, and spirit.

Acknowledge yourself as the Mighty Creator that you are and create a wonderful joyous day.

Miracle 2

The I Am Consciousness is your true spiritual identity.

It accepts no limitations and no restrictions to your miracle powers and your achievements. Descartes said "I think therefore I AM". Your thoughts are your creation.

The world around you is a direct reflection of where and what your thoughts have been on.

Let the I AM Consciousness that you are creating from be filled with Love, Generosity, Kindness and Reverence.

Express your Divinity in words that have the creative life spark
such as

• I Am healthy
• I AM peaceful
• I AM Wise
• I AM Prosperous
• I AM Love

Now watch how your life begins to reflect now your new conscious dialogue.

The I AM Spirit represents your awareness that the Spirit of GOD is within and by accepting this as your truth you will set into motion the miracle working powers of your higher mind.

Miracle 3

Imagination

You are here to Imagine and Create, to image yourself in many ways.

This is our most precious gift for we can build or become anything that we can image.

Hold in your minds eye the image you wish for yourself and know that simply by the power of thought and this visual that you have for yourself that the almighty higher mind of the I AM is at work creating that which you hold in view for yourself.

Imagination is at the core of all of mans greatest accomplishments that we can see all around us. The Great Pyramids. The Parthenon of Greece. The Great Wall of China. Flight to the Moon. The Internet and so on. Imagination is our miracle worker.

Use your creative powers in a new way daily in the small details of life and build your imagination muscles

Overcoming Fears and Anxiety ~ A Third Eye Exercise

My Guides gave me this exercise many years ago and it truly helped me with some fears and anxiety I was having at that time.  I was just reminded by them about this helpful and productive exercise to share with you which is a great way to start the new year.

Let's talk first about what creates fear, anxiety, depression or any low vibration that keeps you from manifesting all of your desires in life. 

Fear, anxiety, depression stems from the clutter in the subconscious. 

This clutter includes past wounds, trauma and beliefs that have gone unresolved as well as emotional wounds, trauma and unresolved challenges. 

These can be from this life or perhaps even from past lives.

According to Dr Freud, you developed your core belief systems  between the ages of one to seven.  As a child, in the first 7 years, we observe our environment and all the people we were surrounded by and we unconsciously developed our beliefs as truth based on these perceptions about life, relationships, love, money, work, God, and dozens of other things which is now stored deeply embedded in your sub conscious. 

Your observed belief systems may not be your Truth of who you are today and may be  keeping from your highest potential of healing and manifesting. 

On top off all of that we all have Archetypes which are meant to teach us lessons which can trigger confusion until we understand them and then let them go.

For example I had a client who had many lifetimes of experiencing the Archetype of The Hermit. In this life, unaware of the energy of the hermit, her question to me was 'Why have I not been able to manifest a relationship in the past 20 years'?  Well as you can very well guess the Hermit energy surrounding her Auric field is not appropriate for a relationship to manifest. Once she understood this Archetype and the lessons around it she was able to become available for a true relationship to take place.

This is a great exercise for opening your third eye. 

(give yourself about 30 minutes of uninterrupted time)

Close your eyes

Picture in your mind's eye a beautiful area
of green grass and a sparkling pond

See yourself walking towards and sit beside the pond 

Take in the beauty of all around you

  the trees, wildflowers, the blue sky

       Feel the sun on your face

The pond you are sitting by is your subconscious and water represents that which is buried in you consciousness.

With your pen and paper in front of you both physical and in your mind's eye ask the questions you most want to get insight into on or why you are not getting your desired results.
 
Example: Why am I in financial challenge so often? 

What will happen is information will begin to come out of the pond in the form of words, beliefs, memories, past life visuals or memories. 

Information about what is buried within you will surface
As they do, and this is most important part, do not give them excuses or questions or any dialogue other than a sincere feeling of gratitude and appreciation.
 
For your buried story, or treasure is a better term, is being told. 

Every cell simply wants to tell the story and truth it is holding for you. 
To tap you into your wisdom and knowledge about who you are on this spiritual journey as a human. 

Your body has all the information you need to grow into your powers of manifestation and having the life of your wildest desires.

It is your birthright, but what is covering your light and power it is all there in the pond beside you.

Once your cells have given you what secrets/treasures/stories they have been holding they are free to leave and you will regain your light and joy and move on to your life goals.
 
See the story just dissipate into the sky above you.

This is truly the highest spiritual purpose that all humans share in common. To reconnect to your original higher self and feel connected to The One that we all are.

Wisdom Of The Ancients ~ Quantum Leaps in Evolution

Anita asks of her guides to comment on the times at hand. Their Reply...... Now is the time to go within and reflect back to your days of youth. You had a mission when you chose to come into this time period on the planet. For each of you it was different in many ways and similar in many ways as well. Similar in a sense that as a Soul you all knew that the time you spent on the planet was for a higher purpose than that of one individual incarnation. You chose as a group to come in at this time to help each other to REMEMBER. By coming together as a collection of light beings to shake you out of the long sleep you have been in at a Soul level. The planet has taken this time in all of creation to assist in the waking up process for the Souls on planet right now. As you all can now truly communicate with each other via the internet and all the technology that the internet offers to talk with your family all over the planet. You are no longer in the dark and this evolution of consciousness is yours for the taking. REMEMBERING who you are as a Perfected Soul is very simple. Just claim your power now and walk in your light. Help all those around you to regain strength and trust that they are all here for the biggest mission of any incarnation prior to this one. This is what your Soul has been waiting for. Each day brings opportunity for your light to continue to shine brighter, waking so many Souls around you to this cellular memory. You are a huge family that have been traveling through the karmic cycle together for eons of time and now your dues have been paid. The truth is your doomed to perfection .....your mission now is to help all those you know in on this forgotten secret. Think for at least some part of your day about the consciousness of the planet that you call home. She is on the same path as you and your consideration as to taking emotional resoponsibility will help Her help you. How? You are constantly emitting energy of some sort. Consciously or unconsciously. Loving, positive, uplifting, joyful and kind, or negative, critical, pessimistic, greedy and hateful. Highly charged energy affecting you and all around. Be it by thoughts, words, actions and even body language. What you emit not only effects the people you come in contact with, it goes into the Collective Consciousness Pool and also gets soaked up by planet Earth. With nearly 7 billion people contributing to the Energetic Pool anything can happen. Now while there are most definitely those that emit Negative intent. The vast majority of earths inhabitants just go with the collective flow. This is exciting as even a small percentage Focusing Positive Loving Intent can change the Collective Pool. Not only is the possible, this is the Grandest Experiment. Think of earth as a spiritual lab project. You incarnated at this time to show that Love Can Turn Even The Most Chaotic of Times Around. Imagine, if for only 5 minutes a day, the residents of Planet Earth taking their light, their love and their gratitude and beaming it out to every corner and every person what an impact that would make.. Eons of negative, hateful, greedy energy can quickly be recycled and mankind will wake to the perfected state he has forgotten so long ago. Even if the people who see this writing would do that small deed everyday the impact is for more reaching than your wildest imagination can begin to understand. This is truly why you each have chosen this time frame to incarnate, you promised to work together as one to make a difference for the whole. You are nearly 7 billion Souls that are going to higher vibration. Your journey growing in your true connection with the divine in yourself and the planet. During this journey you can begin to heal and restore Earth to her true beauty. This is a time of quantum leaps in evolution and taking your soul off the karmic cycle so that true divine connection shall return. www.AnitaOwens.com

My Path to Medical Intuition

All Medical Intuitives are unique in how they work. After all we all have our own inherent ability of intuition. The key with intuition is how to understand the messages that are coming in since they do not come in through the linear left brain approach that we are accustomed to. Intuition is honed according to each person's desire in communicating with either their higher self or perhaps a Higher source of consciousness. A Higher source of consciousness has always been with me in a very real way. Many people refer to this process as Spirit Guides, Angels, Masters. They are here to help each one of us, and with us all the time. I have always regarded them as Best Friends and advice that I could trust. They have never let me down in my personal adventure here on planet Earth. My adventure began very early on in life. I basically came in to this life fully wired for connection with different realms. Whether I liked it or not. As a small child I could see people around me that others could not. Turns out these people were Dead People who had recently died in the town around me. I quickly became terrified at the fact that I also knew when there was going to be a death nearby, even of people I did not even know. Thank heaven for my Guides, who kept me from feeling totally alone, crazy, and scared to death. I pleaded with them in my early twenties to please take this seeing and communicating with the dead away. It seemed Too much to bear. And thankfully I slowly experienced them less and less, quit seeing them and began to get on with a more or less normal life. My clairvoyance then began to take the form of getting psychic visions and impressions. Often times I simply heard a voice telling me information about someone I would be talking with. This led to doing psychic sessions for people on a daily basis. While I enjoyed doing these sessions, after a few years I felt like I was ready to go deeper, get more meaningful information for my clients so I asked my guides for the next phase of my readings. At the time I had no idea of what a Medical Intuitive was as this was years before Carolyn Myss first started using the term in her books. How being a Medical Intuitive started for me was that I started to hear client's organs and cells talk to me. They seemed to have a story they wanted to tell, and like the dead people, they also knew I could clearly hear them. So I started listening, and speaking with the body. Wow, What stories. At that time I did not know anything about the anatomy or physiology but I did know that I was hearing very real information as to the state of health a organ or gland was in. I began to let myself go inside the client and simply let the story unfold. As the client would tell me of their health concerns or challenges the body would begin to show me the Root Cause Specific Reason for whatever their ailment was. Over the years the information came clearer and deeper and seemed to be even clearer when I was conducting a Phone Session and was not distracted with the client being in the same room with me. In my sessions, as the client talks about what they are experiencing, be it pain, depression, anxiety, swelling or whatever the health challenge is, I begin to get pictures inside the body as to what is at the root of that experience. Often times the root will be in multiple organs or systems and causing multiple imbalances throughout the body. Another amazing layer also revealed itself as I was doing more of these health readings is the emotional blockage or unresolved trauma that was also at the root of the health challenge. Of course it only makes sense that we are emotional beings as well and these emotions positive and negative are also a part of our whole being as well. Good health very much depends on a healthy positive emotional state, clear of past trauma and unresolved anger, tears, guilt, shame....the list goes on and on. I am very passionate about this process of understanding our human bodies and how to make us all healthier, happier people. We are multifaceted and true health requires a clearing and balancing of all of who we are....physical, emotional, psychological and spiritual. True Lasting Healing only takes place when all these aspects of ourselves are acknowledged. This I have learned simply by working with people and allowing the body to give me the best teaching I could ever have. Still today after 20 years and 1000's of clients the human body is still my greatest teacher and I am always in awe at how fascinating we humans are. During this process I was inspired to seek out additional schooling and skills which lead me to The Mystery School in Boulder Colorado for a Certification in Medical Intuition as well as Theta Healing. While my Main Teacher's have all ways been my Guides, it was nice to put some order to this process. I also studied Anatomy and Physiology to better understand what I was being shown within the body Deciding to balance my developed Right brain with some heavy duty Left brain training and went on to become Certified in Iridology and a Master Sceroloigist. Desiring to be able to assist my clients with Natural Solutions I also studied and trained as an Herbalist. In my work the one lesson I really understood to the core is that WE ARE ALL RESPONSIBLE FOR OUR OWN ENERGY. When we take back our power and our health into our own capable hands, I have seen amazing transformation take place. Nature has given us everything we need to Heal and be Healthy. We and our world around us were created by the Divine who knew exactly how to heal any imbalances. For this reason I work with Mother Nature with my clients in slowly bringing balance and lasting results with no side effects to the healing process. I trust in natural plant based remedies that are a natural part of our DNA....we have always lived with plants for our food and our medicine. After all that is why the Father of Medicine is famous for stating...."Let thy food by thy medicine and thy medicine be thy food." We call these plants herbs and yes they can truly be the food your body has been missing that can cause the slow breakdown leading to all types of symptoms. To recap, as a Medical Intuitive it is my privilege listen and watch as your body reveals to me the many layers of burden or toxins or poor elimination, circulation, loss of whatever that is creating your experience. Information is Strength Relaying the Root Cause of the Dis-Confort and or Dis-Ease gives a focused area to begin the healing process Weather Physical, Emotional, or Spiritual based in it cause I can also offer Natural Solutions that can assist in this healing process and how to restore balance within your Body Mind Spirit Connection and or how your body is responding to your current protocol In my experience you are your own best healer. You are responsible for complete healing and keeping your energy flowing in a positive direction and nature can help you get there as in my opinion has always been the intended pursuit to wellness. It is an honor to be of service and assistance in helping you be The Best You Ever Thank you....... Anita Owens..... Medical Intuitive

Wisdom Of The Ancients ~ Doomed To Perfection

There is so much happening to our planet at this time.

• Revolutions are everywhere
• Natural disasters are bigger than ever
• Much suffering
• Many states are simply broke which will cause many of our systems to break down.

What can we do to assist in this time of very intense transformation taking place?

(Anita's Guides Reply)

As we watch the shift in consciousness that was foretold would happen, we hold the planet and all of mankind in our bodies of light and ask that you do the same.

Each and every day project love and kindness in all of your daily interactions with everyone you encounter.

IF each person would show compassion daily for each other then the tipping point will occur taking mankind towards their own bodies of light that awaits each person on the planet right now.

This is your opportunity to finally ascend into a higher dimension.

This will foster a more peaceful civilization.

One in which mankind will grow in a more loving environment that treats everyone as a equal. Where all resources are provided so that each soul will learn a higher more advanced form of science and how truly remarkable the human soul truly is.

Your potential has not yet even been understood let alone tapped into.

Mankind has been in a suspended state for far too long and the transition that is taking place on earth is also taking place in the hearts and the very soul of each person on the planet.

Your true abilities, which the higher dimensions will foster, is beginning to wake each sleeping soul up.

Planet Earth has agreed with each person residing on Her that She will assist in the personal transformation and the waking of each soul that you may all experience a true rebirth and take back your bodies of light that have been dimmed for so very long.

A few have for too long controlled via a program installed on the planet creating so much violence and suffering.

This will no longer be allowed.

We here in the higher dimensions have watched this go on but we knew there was a time in which this program would end and the time is NOW.

Your reawakening to your True Self is happening every day.

Sometimes in a subtle approach, other times as the high drama.

The planetary disasters and the suffering of the oppressed in many areas can decrease if each person takes a responsible role in simply holding a strong light of love and kindness toward the planet and Her residents.

We want to end this message by assuring you, that you are doomed to perfection and you will awake and remember your true nature.

You are made in the image of the ONE CREATOR and you too are creator gods, therefore creating the future of your planet and of mankind everyday in every little thing that you do.

Check in with yourself.

Ask often, in this Now, are you operating out of fear, greed, guilt or any other negative state of mind.

If so, love yourself and CHANGE NOW.

Each person has a role that has been designed and agreed to in this time of transformation.

You each promised you would come in and hold your share of the light.

How can you do that?

Be in your JOY.

The joy you create for yourself is the allowing of your inner light to burn strong enough for all the people around you to see and this sends a very subtle message of love to all.

Are you awake and aware of the transformation you asked to recieve?

You incarnated at this time to return to your light body that this 3D world has to offer at this time in your journey as a soul.

The more joy you hold in your daily life and the more joy you project to others will keep you in the path of growth and expansion.

Any negative emotions such as fear, greed and all the lower frequencies will lead you down a path away from the goal that you had set for yourself prior to incarnation.

• Enjoy your life
• Be of service in any way possible to others any time you see a need.
• Send much love and light to the areas of experiencing trama
• Keep your planet in your heart that She and all of mankind move thru this time with patience and comfort for all.

Enjoy the Journey.

It truly is a Wonder Full time to Be Here Now.
