Forging Forward with One Foot! #inspiration #lifepurpose #destiny #meditation

I had a client who had one leg. She was in a car accident at an early age, so she knew the feeling of having two legs—walking, running, and even sprinting. The fact was, she was a track star. When she came to me, she wanted to learn to sing. She lost a part of her that literally stopped her in her tracks, so she needed to reach back inside and find a new voice.

The marvelous end to this story is that what she found was a way to take the feeling of loss and bring joy back into her life. She focused on creating and expressing artistically. This is exactly why we all need to give our artistic self the chance to express in new and wonderful ways. This young lady was not a great singer. In fact, she, at best, adequate. But, this fact didn’t matter. Her only goal was to stand up in the choir with her new leg and sing. We accomplished that within six months.

So, after we found a place of joy, she decided to continue with me as a hypnotherapy client. She felt ready to reach back down into her soul and experience her loss, deal with it, and overcome the phantom feelings she had with her missing leg. I feel, the only reason she was able to face those negative urges was because she took an important jump forward to help her heart heal.

Interestingly enough, the modality she chose physically had nothing to do with her leg. But, what I’ve learned over the many years that had I taught voice lessons (I’m now retired) is that the expression of singing is like “finding your voice—your passion, your personal expression, and your opinions.” When you begin to sing with abandonment, something in your heart explodes. Scientifically, a study in New York proved that people who sing, allow vibrations to release toxins from the brain. So, singing is healing. It’s a proven fact.

The next time you find yourself singing your favorite song in the shower, let it go! Let your head resonate with healing vibrations to let all of that negativity out. Who knows, maybe, you can reach out of your pain and into something new and wonderful, no matter what your problem has been in the past.

Stripped of a Poet's Gloss

Stripped of a Poet’s Gloss

About twenty years ago, I had bought a new car with a hatchback. I treated the new car like a baby, just wanting to keep it clean all the time. One day, I had gotten gas, and noticed that, if I filled my tank, I could get a free car wash.  So, I got excited. I stopped at the vacuum machine just before the wash, which also happened to be free. I cleaned the carpets in the back and under the hatchback.

           

When I got back into my car, I drove up to the kiosk and entered my receipt number into the computer. I saw the large red illuminated sign that read ominously:  PROCEED! So, I drove forward, as I rolled up the electric window.

But I didn’t realize how slowly the new window closed, until I was already in the carwash and the first spray of water, aimed directly at my face, shot at me like a pistol whipping.

Of course, I couldn’t make the electric window roll up any faster, so I just sat there and got drenched. As stunned as I was, though, I suddenly became self-conscious and wondered if anyone had been watching this happen. I glanced up into the rearview mirror and noticed that I had left the hatchback open.

Now freaking out, I dove in the backseat trying to beat the flush of water ready to fire into the rear, but not without my ass landing directly on the gear shift—the hard gear shift. Rearing up in pain, I launched over the back seat, only to find the back washer firing hot red blue and green soapy foam all over the inside of my new car and me.

Finally, I got the hatchback closed and I just lay in the back of the car frustrated and crying… then, in my estimation, a miracle happened. I let go. With that, I started to laugh and kept laughing until I became conscious of the four cars behind me beeping their horns and laughing… with me.

This wasn’t ever supposed to be a carwash. It was supposed to be a water ride!

Do you ever take the time to live in the present, fully in the now? Can you accept that the best you can be is ready for you right now?

What I know most about human life is that it doesn’t mirror a poet’s pretty words. We spend each day enduring the process of life—sometimes happy, sometimes not. Whether you must go to your job, feed the kids, find a new job, or simply feed yourself, life takes a great deal of energy. If you don’t have that energy, you are likely to slip into depression and complacency.

I want to make a deal with you. I want you to recall that problem or fault you want to fix in your life. It doesn’t matter how you got to this place, I just need for you to make a decision that whatever you want to let go of no longer serves you or whatever you need to change is possible. I want you to close your eyes and commit to being ready and open for change and prosperity.

I sometimes search outward for things that qualify me as a person. But, I always go inward for that which quantifies me for good. Everyday, I pray a prayer that spirit will fill me with openness, love, compassion, and prosperity. I don’t pray this prayer for God. I pray it to align my mind and heart with spirit’s unlimited good, always willing to help and serve me.

No one knows what you, personally, are going through today in your life. I don’t expect to understand your grief or pain. But I can offer a bit of advice. To live in this hard, human life you must wake up ready to step forward into life. If you stand still or walk backward into your past, you will never make it through.

Today, take the bold move forward. Ask spirit with a simple prayer to give you faith, truth, and the power to understand the chaos likely to be around you. I believe with you that this is done and magnificent change is on its way to you now.

Look for MY LATEST BOOK:  “Finding Authentic You, 7 Steps to Effective Change” with a Year to CLEAR (C-larity, L-ove, E-nthusiasm A-nd R-elationship-Ready) on my Website in the Webstore. Thanks!

Below is information that I will be sharing for about a month, as not every person on my list reads the blog every day. If you have already read it, just skip over it. Thanks for understanding.

A Year to CLEAR Challenge:

(Please Know: You Can Join Us At Any Point in the Year Challenge.)

The masses search outward for things that qualify them as a person, but I always go inward for that which quantifies me for greatness. At twenty-five I preached on street corners in NYC as an in-the-closet Pentecostal minister. One day I heard a still small voice say, ‘God cannot be contained in a book or a law or even in a religion. Dig deeper, reach further to find me, and you will find your authentic Self.’”

A Year to CLEAR Challenge!

The acronym CLEAR stands for (Compassionate, Loving, Enthusiastic, And Relationship-Ready). The goal of this project is to engulf readers in a weekly study that will transform them by removing blocks, promote self-growth, and give them wings to fly freely into daily life. Each week, by going to BoSebastian.com and choosing the Year to CLEAR Challenge tab, a new challenge or thought to provoke conversation, growth, and group functionality.

My vision is to make Finding Authentic You the book to have in your Kindle or on your computer. The book is a comprehensive look at growth—spiritually, mentally, and physically.

As a yoga teacher and student of the Ayurvedic tradition, I bring to the table understanding of physical challenges, the ability to overcome mental problems with Life & Health Coaching, as well as hypnotherapy, and expertise in meditation and spirituality as a minister.

The combination of all three in one book with an interactive connection to like-minded readers, for one year, is what makes this Year to CLEAR Challenge a must-do for every spiritual seeker.

The One-Year Approach to Change

No one believes he or she can change overnight. But success in change comes from the metaphors of nature. Seasonally, life changes all around us in nature. Finding Authentic You offers a gradual change perspective, looking at the triune aspects of change as in yoga: Body, Mind and Spirit.

Accessing the ability to change and finding yourself actually pursuing change must be a daily search, which I call getting to the “observer mind.”

In this frontal cortex of the brain we find the anatomy of change and the power to counter every negative trigger of the human process. The workings of Hypnosis, NLP (Neuro-linguistic Programming) and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) are all positive actions to help the mind and body flow to a positive space for change.

Every aspect of FINDING AUTHENTIC YOU fulfills this constant need for diffusing the negative past and dreaming of a fulfilling future.

Step 1: Recognize That Change is Inevitable

Step 2: Release from Resistance to Change

Step 3: Understanding Change and Allow Spirit to Define It

Step 4: A History Lesson—About You

Step 5: Look at Your Past with Compassion

Step 6: Making a Strong Commitment to Change

Step 7: Dream Your Fabulous Future
