A new year's prayer

I just wanted everyone to have easy access to the New Year's prayer that I recorded this week. It's at http://intuitiveliz.com/weeklyprayer.html. It's a prayer you can listen to to release the old year and open yourself to the new year. I always do the prayers in first person so that it will fully activate the prayer for you. Lots of love and light to you all for the new year. Blessings, Liz

Solstice, Lunar Eclipse, and all the other crazy energy!

How is everyone out there doing with all the energy shifts we are all going through? Wow, is all I can say, it has been intense. You might say, when is it not intense? I might agree. :) Holidays can be overwhelming without all this crazy energy going on at the same time.

When I read the global energy that is affecting us personally, it feels like the world is turning around and making us focus on what is truly important to us on our own unique paths. We cannot get away with avoiding who we are. This might be true always to some extent, but it is doubly true at this moment in our soul's history. I can literally feel the pull energetically saying "turn within and face your Self. Do not back away from who you are."

What is kind of cool about this whole process is that we actually function better when we are not avoiding who we are. Imagine that!

I had a great hike today with my crazy dogs and I got off trail randomly. It made me have to focus completely so that I didn't fall on my face. My mind could not wander, and I had to be fully present with who I was in that moment. The world dropped away and I felt very fluid and at peace. (And slightly clumsy at times as well, but very present as I was clumsy.:)) As I saw my strengths and weaknesses with the process of getting down the mountain, I let my mind watch my experience without judging it. It was a perfect moment of being.

So, if you want to find some sanity over this holiday season, make sure you spend time listening to who you are. If that time comes from meditation, awesome, if it comes from hiking in the mountains, awesome as well. Part of listening to who you are is finding what you love to do and doing it in a fully present and focused way.

Many Blessings to you all, Liz

Taking time to be Present

As I was preparing to teach my class on intuition a couple of weeks ago, I was thinking of simple ways to become more focused on the present moment. The more present we are, the more we naturally awaken our intuitive voice. One thing that occurred to me was to really focus on our food when we are eating. A lot of us eat and talk or eat and watch TV, but it is very simple just to take time to consciously eat. Sometimes finding time to meditate is hard, but we eat every day right? (Unless we are fasting.:))

So, as a new practice, try eating one meal a day consciously focusing on the flavors and sensations of your meal. This will immediately bring you to the present moment and you might find some awesome insights along the way. As you take time in a day to be present, the mind has time to find focus and you become more conscious of what is bothering you and you also become more conscious of the solutions.

Blessings to you all in this holiday season,
Liz

The Holiday Season

Life can be overwhelming during the holiday season. We can easily get caught up in worldly life and forget our divinity for awhile. It is so important to re-center ourselves in the divine light that is our truth so that we can stay grounded and centered with all the craziness.

I know that this season is about giving, and we could look at that as giving physical gifts, but we could also look at the divine act of giving as well; giving kindness, giving time, giving presence, giving generosity. Some people go and volunteer this time of year, and this is great, but sometimes it is the small act of giving that is equally well received. Being present with the waiter at a restaurant, connecting and smiling with the cashier at Target, being kind to your neighbor's dog, really listening to your family and friends, all are forms of giving that can make a deep impact in someone's lives. When we really connect with people, the world shifts and we deepen our connection to the divine.

Many Blessings to you all in this holiday season!

Awakening your Intuitive Voice

I am teaching a class this weekend called "Awakening your Intuitive Voice". Why would we want to be more intuitive?  When we connect with our intuition, we connect with the voice of our heart and our divinity and we learn our lessons with more grace.

We can imagine living our life with the voice of our mind as our guide and our director. Our minds are limited to what we know and what we have seen. We as human beings have only had a limited amount of experiences in our lives and, even if we are triple Phds, we have only gathered a limited amount of knowledge. Our minds try and tell us that our experiences and knowledge are the truth of our being and that our experiences and knowledge define who we are and what we are here on this earth. When we live from the voice of our mind, we can only move through life from what we as individuals have learned and what we as individuals know.

When we awaken our intuitive voice in life, we connect to a vast ocean of knowledge because we are connecting with the divinity inside us and around us. This divinity has a limitless wealth of information and wisdom that we can tap into that leads us on a gentler path in life. We are all divine and we all have a divine voice that I call intuition. Imagine if we can see into the easiest and clearest solution to the issues that we have in our lives. Imagine if we can see the purpose for the challenges we have in our lives. Our mind, our personality, our humanity has no ability to connect with this consciousness on its own. It can only connect when we awaken our intuitive voice. The louder that intuitive voice becomes, the more we learn to trust the information that we receive and the more fluid our lives become.

So, here's to awakening our intuitive voices more strongly in our lives. Here's to recognizing the divinity in all aspects of our lives. Here's to finding simple and deeply wise solutions to challenging problems!

Come join me if you are here in Albuquerque this Sunday from 1-4 for a class that will help you awaken your intuitive voice. Email me for more information. innerhealth@yahoo.com.
