When you’re in love.

Lhyzie — Mon, 20 May 2013 13:22:35 +0000

You see, when you’re in love, you’re changed and nothing can overcome the feeling, well not for a while at least. They say perfection doesn’t exist, but it does, it’s there when you fall in love with someone. When you’re in love, suddenly every flaw, every imperfection across their face, every imperfection tracing their spine, every muddled word and trips and falls become a marking of their perfection. And in that state of mind, you’re willing do everything to try and hold together what you have, to try to keep them with you. You lose your limitation in fear of having to face reality without them and it pushes you to do all you can to tighten the strings tied around your fingers. That’s where you don’t realize if the love is worth it or not.

You may have a thousand voices around you telling you that it’s not worth it, and that it’s time to let go and move on but even still, your heart and mind will refuse to accept and believe. Only when your eyes witness real actions and your heart aches as you’re buried deep in your blankets at night will you tell yourself “I should have listened to them”. Only when you’re hit with the cold hard truth and swallow down everything you’ve spent denying until it runs through your pulsing veins do you realise. You’ll find that it’s not worth it in your last battles, where you’ve drawn the last breath and no longer have anything to give to create the next chapter. But I guess I only speak for “when you’re in love”.

Love in general though? Well I guess you know it’s not worth it when you come to acknowledge, and accept that it’s one sided, that they wouldn’t put out the time and effort you do, that it’s based on lies and dishonesty or your answer to whether they’ve brought you more happiness than downfalls, is no.

What Is Feng Shui?

Lhyzie — Sun, 19 May 2013 10:24:26 +0000

The ancient art of placement design is no longer thought of as something done in the Orient. About 3,000 B.C., the art form of Feng Shui was founded by those who were seekers of the most prized place to live. In the beginning, it was the formations of the land that made these Feng Shui practitioners look to the formation of all structures…including the human body. Then they recognized how this affected humans residing in certain places. This intricate understanding of how land and people being one was inherent in the practice of harmonizing all the elements of life through Feng Shui living.

What is Feng Shui? Feng literally means wind and Shui means water. When you think of the human body, it is our breath that creates life and our body that makes the water that sustains it. Therefore, in inspecting our environments, we seek to find how our soul and spirit expresses who we are and what we want to achieve. We learn how to use Feng Shui to organize our lives.

There are many different schools of Feng Shui: Compass, Form, Black Hat, Tantric, and Western. Each Feng Shui school can be as individual as you are, so take your choice. Work with your Feng Shui practitioner and let soul and spirit shine in this incredible art of making your home more then a place to sleep, but a place where your dreams can grow and you can thrive.

Ask yourself the hard questions: What do I really want, and am I truly willing to make the tough choices to allow that to happen! Health, happiness, safety, beauty and comfort are all a part of what you want to make happen in your Feng Shui home. So, go sit by a body of water and close your eyes, take a deep breath, and decide, “I am ready to change my life from the inside of where I live to the outside world where I can shine”. Give your favorite Feng Shui master a call or buy their book and go on that incredible journey known as you.

Talk about expressing yourself! When we walk into a room filled with clutter and a total mess, do we feel focused? I think not. Feng Shui promotes harmony. Of course, there are those creative types that have things everywhere. However, when you want that creativity presented to the world, it requires a sense of organization and harmony that allows it to take form beyond the room of its creation. That’s right, when we are moving the energy, there are no spots that are clogged up. Think of clutter to a place is like clogging up arteries to your body! This is the first principle of placement and design.

Do We Receive Angel Messages?

Lhyzie — Sat, 18 May 2013 10:28:40 +0000

How do you talk to your angels? Sometimes it sounds like a whisper. Other times it is more of a “feeling” that you should do something, or call someone. We all receive angel messages all the time. Receiving angel messages is about being sensitive and noticing any sensations or impressions. Your angels are smart and they are going to choose to give you messages in the way that communicates with you the very best.

The most important thing about angel messages is to be aware and open to receive an angel message. If you are open to receive the message, you are more than doing your part. Then simply be aware and notice if you are seeing or having any impressions that could be an angel message. Over time you will become quite used to your angels’ messages and how they communicate with you.

Inspiration. Many people receive sudden inspiration to do something. At that moment, they want to call someone they haven’t talked to in three years or they want to walk down a different street they’ve never been on before. Your angels will send you inspiration to do things to connect you in ways that you can’t even imagine. When you telephone that person, they may say something that seems very inspired and full of wisdom. Or they may say something very ordinary but has great meaning for you on a deeper level. That by itself is an angel message. Sending you down a different street you could meet a new friend or someone who could offer you a new and interesting opportunity. The angels inspire us all the time!

Symbols. Some people continue to see the same thing over and over again. It turns out that their angels are sending them a message through a symbol. You may see the same image or name over and over again. Think for a moment about what this name or symbol could mean to you. If you love daisies and you keep seeing them, the angels could be sending you a message to simply say “hello.” Or they could be telling you that you should do more things that you enjoy.

“Good Luck” Sometimes things happen to us and we think that we are lucky. Things just go our way. We find exactly the information we need at the right time. We call overseas and reach the person we need to talk to when they are at home. We may find something that we thought was lost, just before we were about to replace it. Many times people will dismiss these things as having a lucky day. There is nothing wrong with a bit of good luck—we certainly could use a good day no matter how it comes. But very often your “good luck day” is an angel message with your angels working to help connect the dots for you. Pay attention to all of the details of that experience and you may realize that divine assistance was hard at work for you!

Salmon salad dinner.

Lhyzie — Fri, 17 May 2013 10:25:01 +0000

Ingredients

8 small red potatoes, washed and sliced in half
1 cup frozen corn, thawed
1 head tender lettuce (Boston or butter), washed and chopped
1 avocado
6 or 7 plum tomatoes, washed, trimmed and sliced in half lengthwise
2 filets of salmon
glug of olive oil
Juice from half a lemon
salt and pepper
FOR DRESSING:
1/2 cup yogurt
1/4 cup fresh dill, washed and finely chopped
juice from half a lemon
1 tbsp honey

Directions:

Boil or steam potatoes until tender. Drain and put aside to cool.
Pour frozen corn into a bowl and allow to thaw as you’re working on other elements.
Wash, dry and chop the lettuce into ribbons.
Turn oven broiler onto 450 degrees.
Rinse fish and pat it dry with paper towel before coating in a light slick of olive oil and lemon juice, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Put fish on a baking sheet. Shake the corn around the salmon on the sheet. Place on the highest rack of the oven. Watch it fairly closely; it will only take between 5 and 10 minutes. The salmon flesh will be opaque and the corn will start to char. Pull the rack or sheet out of the oven and use a fork to break into the salmon to check that it’s cooked through. Allow to cool either to warm or room temperature.
Slice the avocado in half lengthwise and remove the pit. Score the flesh of the avocado into squares with a regular table knife and run it under the flesh to flick out all the squares.
Wash, trim and slice the tomatoes lengthwise.
Lay down a bed of the chopped lettuce on a large platter. Arrange the potatoes, avocado and tomatoes evenly across the lettuce.
Once the salmon has cooled at least a bit, gently peel off the skin. Break it into bite size pieces with your hands. Arrange on the salad. Shake the charred corn over top.
To make the dressing put all the ingredients into a jar and shake. Either dress the salad or just serve it on the side so everyone can do it themselves.

Using The Law Of Attraction.

Lhyzie — Thu, 16 May 2013 10:17:34 +0000

Don’t fall into the trap of believing you are just stuck in a rut and can’t get out! Want to know how to spice up your life? We all deserve the life we want to live, and the Law of Attraction can help us do just that! First, we must define our life. We just have to get clear about what we want our lives to be, focus on the positive, and dedicate ourselves to our vision. Sounds fun, right?

Keep the following tips in mind so you know how to use the Law of Attraction correctly.

*Be Present with Your Intention

The Law of Attraction teaches that we always place our intention in the present tense. Replace phrases like, “I wish I was successful” with strong statements like, “I am successful!” This not only assists us in feeling great about our current situation, but we live up to the expectations we set for ourselves. If we spend all our time “wishing”, we open the door to feeling bad about our current state, and that negative energy will just drag us down! Let’s live our vision like it is happening now!

*Actions Speak Louder than Thoughts

Often we have a desire we’d like to manifest, but our actions are telling a different tale. Think of it like the guy who says he wants to settle down and get married, but spends every night at the bar flirting with different women. It’s sending a mixed signal to the Universe, which will never be interpreted. Our visions absolutely must align with our actions! So line it up right, and you will be on the path to achieving your dreams.

*Express Gratitude for Everything

Most of us say, “Everything happens for a reason”, but the Law of Attraction maintains that we’ve got to really, truly believe that in order to express gratitude—no matter what! For example, if you didn’t get the promotion you’ve been working towards, perhaps it wasn’t meant to be. Is this the career you love or is there something better out there? Take this time to evaluate what you’d love to do! Be thankful for everything, and trust that your life will be exactly as you see it. Be confident, and express gratitude for the things that have happened and that there is something to be appreciative of all the time!

*Give Back to Receive

We tend to think of intentions, goals, or dreams as being self-serving. It’s the classic “What’s in it for me?” mentality. When we set out for something, there’s usually self-motivating factors behind it. Maybe we wanted the aforementioned promotion to earn money to buy a new home or car.OK- get ready, I’m going to give you a doozy! Throw that mentality away! Stop thinking about what’s in it for you, and start thinking about what you can do for the world. This will lead you directly to your purpose, and if you live your life’s purpose, the Universe will send you abundance in return! We all have talents, something we can contribute, and that will also allow us to live a full, rich life. So, turn it around and ask the world, “How can I help you?”

*Surrender Fear

It’s natural to be nervous about change. When we change our thinking, or want to change our thinking, it can be scary! I’ve had clients tell me they feel stuck in a rut, but fear keeps them at that status quo. Truthfully, most successful people aren’t “lucky” people; many have failed time and time again. But they held strong to their vision, and surrendered fear by believing in the powerful “Law of Attraction.” Fear can be debilitating, because it blocks us from taking inspired risks. Believe in your purpose, and allow the Universe to deliver your desires!
