How to Create Abundance in the New Year

BEFORE YOU READ THIS ARTICLE. . .ask yourself this question:

Where does my money come from?

Write down your answer and then continue reading.

With the exception of a fortunate few, most people think that money comes from good hard work. They think that their J-O-B is the source of their income, although there is a slight chance in a zillion of winning the lottery or something special that could bring in a good chunk of money and change their lives.

That same mindset believes that the harder they work and the more hours they put in, the more money they will make.

And that is very true. That is exactly what happens, because it is believed to be so.

Money comes from where we believe it comes from.

When we are willing to open our minds to believe something different, or something more, then money can come from places and situations that we never thought possible.

Wouldn't it be great if there was a technique or a process to open the mind, shift thinking, adjust belief systems around money and where it comes from, and score wonderful results?

Well, there is!

John Randolph Price, an internationally known visionary, philosopher, and author, developed a 40-Day Prosperity Plan that can help people open their lives to receiving more abundance from more places. The idea behind forty days is that it takes that amount of time for someone's consciousness to shift.

For forty days you would read one of the ten sequential statements in his little booklet (you will complete four rounds of these) and meditate on it for about 15 minutes. You then journal your thoughts and that is your daily investment.

This is a great way to create abundance in this New Year.

You can start this before the outgoing year ends to prepare for the New Year, or you can start this on day one of the New Year.

Here is an excerpt from the program. This will be read and dated by you on the first day of your program:

"This day, (write the actual date), I cease believing in visible money as my supply and my support, and I view my current world of effect as it truly is... simply an outpicturing of my former beliefs. I believed in the power of money, therefore I surrendered my God-given power and authority to an objectified belief. I believed in the possibility of lack, thus causing a separation in consciousness from the Source of my supply.

I believed in mortal man and carnal conditions, and through this faith gave man and conditions power over me. I believed in the mortal illusion created by the collective consciousness of error thoughts, and in doing so, I have limited the Unlimited. No more! This day I renounce my so-called humanhood and claim my divine inheritance as a Being of God. This day I acknowledge God as my supply and my support."

This book, The Abundance Book, by John Randolph Price, is available at most bookstores or can be ordered through Amazon. It's worth the whopping investment of $7 and 20 minutes a day for forty days.

Here is wishing you all a most
Abundant and Prosperous 2011!

Three Great Gifts of Christmas: Frankincense, Myrrh and Gold / Dec. 22, 2010

*The Three Great Gifts of Christmas:
Frankincense, Myrrh and Gold

The Three Great Gifts of Christmas:
Frankincense, Myrrh and Gold

These can be the three greatest gifts that we can give ourselves - for great health and happiness, slowing the aging process, and for enhanced beauty.

click here to watch video

Frankincense helps to calm the emotions. When our emotions are centered and calm, then the body responds by not having stress responses that can be so damaging to our cells. Our mind responds by not being so critical and judgmental, and our soul responds by aligning us with a faith filled outlook on life.

To use Frankincense to help calm the emotions, place one to two drops in your palms, rub together, cup your hands over nose and mouth and take several inhalations.

This oil was one of the most valued oils in ancient scriptures. Today we are starting to learn more about its anti-tumoral effects and how it can be used in the treatment of certain cancers.

It is fabulous for skin and can be blended into facial creams to reverse aging skin. Interestingly, frankincense was used for embalming - to preserve dead tissue. If preserves dead tissue, might it help preserve our living tissue too?


Myrrh is excellent for skin too. Especially dry, cracked, or wrinkled skin. It is also highly indicated for mucous membranes such as for mouth care, perineal care in child birth, and the healing qualities also address respiratory problems such as colds, flu, and bronchitis.

Like Frankincense, it too may bear anti-cancer agents. A 2001 study from Rutgers University1 shows that a myrhh compound appears to kill cancer cells ("Myrhh, Fragrant Resin with Ancient Heritage, May Bear Anti-Cancer Agents").


Gold - Liquid Gold - is suspected to be the oil of Fir. Powerful for the mind and spirit, Balsam Fir can help transform negative emotions into positive growth. And for the body, it can be used to fight airborne bacteria - and muscular and rheumatic pain.

All of these gifts have so many healing properties for you. Give these gifts to yourself ~ you deserve it!

Are Women Like Santa Claus? / Dec. 15, 2010

*Are Women Like Santa Claus?
*New Home Spa Lady Tips Format for 2011!
**HSL Inner Circle Upcoming Events
~~~~~~~~

Are Women Like Santa Claus?

Women work too hard at the holidays.

In a Santa Claus world they would work around the clock with as many little helpers as they could find, to many the dreams of everyone they know and love come true.

Women want to make their holiday seasons so perfect by having the perfectly decorated house, giving the perfect gifts, having the perfect dinner, the perfect jingle...and all of those other "perfects".

This creates tremendous stress and can put one on the road to the "Big Belly Club". Stress creates high cortisol levels in the body that put extra weight in the mid-section of the body where the "ho-ho-ho" jiggles the belly.

I wonder if that is Santa's problem? or is his big belly just from too many cookies and milk on December 24th?

Here are some tips on how to beat holiday stress and keep those cortisol levels down:

• Let go of expectations for the outcome of anything connected to the holiday and just enjoy the process as you go along each and every day
  
  
• Decide every day to do one thing good for yourself to feel better such as going to the gym even if you don't have time, taking that lavender bath, talking to your best friend on the phone, getting take out at your favorite restaurant
  
  
• Reflect on holiday's past and think of the wonderful times that stand out in your memories - you will most likely find that those wonderful memories weren't always about how perfect things looked, but more how good you felt inside
  
  
• Give where it's not expected of you - a local charity or a women's shelter

How to Have a Holiday Home-Spa Party / Dec. 8, 2010

*How to Have a Holiday Home-Spa Party
*HSL Inner Circle Upcoming Events

~~~~~~~~

How to Have a Holiday

Home-Spa Party

Here's a unique way to deliver your holiday gifts to your friends, family, clients, or employees - turn your Holiday Party into a Home-Spa Party!

Rather than give that gift certificate for the spa visit to all the people on your list (which can really add up), bring the spa to all of them in one night.

You can save a fortune, give them the gift they want, and network your entire community together as well.

You can even promote yourself if you market a wellness product or offer your own services. This can be a real win-win situation.

Here are some tips on how to have a Holiday Home-Spa Party:

• Pick a date in December in the middle of the week and schedule it for the evening. Another good time is during the week between Christmas and New Years.
• Start it at 5 or 6 PM as the work day is just finishing.
• Have light healthy snacks, but plenty of them. Have one dish that is carb rich for the real hungry. This gives your group the option to eat light or make it their dinner.
• Hire your favorite massage therapist, foot reflexologist, energy healer, astrologer, and personal coach. Choose one or two of these vendors - or have all of them.
• Schedule your vendors to offer 10 - 20 minute sessions (depending on the number of people you have).
• Pay them for the evening with the understanding that this party is a way to promote themselves, so the fees should be minimal.
• Set up stations in your home or office for each vendor.
• Allow them to have their business cards displayed at their station.
• If you market, sell, or distribute a health and wellness product - have it featured at the stations or have your vendors use it in their services.
• Give a pair of fluffy slippers to everyone who comes, so they can slip off their shoes immediately upon arriving.
• Give a gift bag with small spa items like a pumice stone for feet, nail files, a small bottle of lotion, bath gel or essential oil.
• If your guests can't make the date or have to cancel - send them the gift bag with the slippers in the mail. And make sure you get at least one of those services yourself at the party

The 'One Simple Self-Care Solution' For Holiday Stress / Dec. 1, 2010

The 'One Simple Self-Care Solution'

For Holiday Stress

*HSL Inner Circle Upcoming Events

(Note: If you are having problems reading this newsletter, please view it online at http://www.homespalady.com/newsletters/holidayStress.htm)

~~~~~~~~

The 'One Simple Self-Care Solution'
For Holiday Stress

It's so ironic...the season that is to be so peaceful often evokes the opposite energy - all because of stress.

Forget trying to curb the "eat, drink, and be merry" idea - why add more stress?

During this season, more than any other time of the year, people are driven to the indulgences because of stressors:

• Not enough time


• Not enough money


• Family issues


• Memories


• Too much to do


• Routine disruption


• Loneliness

When we're feeling any one of these things the last thing we want is a restriction. We want to feel fulfillment and we want to think that we have enough. We want to fill the void, feel balanced, and have a sense of order.

No "take-aways" please!

So, is there something that we can ADD to our life that:

• takes the sting out of holiday stress


• makes us feel good physically, mentally, and emotionally?

Okay, I hear you......you'll consider it.

"Well, what is it Marilee?"

It's not meditation...this is not the time for the newbie to try to learn to quiet her mind when a zillion fairy plums and her 'to do' list are swimming in her head.

It's not a yoga posture... especially if you've never done yoga before - putting your body in positions it's not used to and holding it for countless breaths would only cause added stress.

It's not a special food or supplement.

It's not even an essential oil application (although I use my oils every day for many things!)

This is one of my favorite secret practices that has so many benefits - and it always reduces my stress and makes me feel fabulous.

I was going to wait to introduce this to you but I love doing this so much, especially right now during the crazy holiday season, that when I was doing this the other night and then slept so well and felt so invigorated the next morning I thought "I have to share this with my readers NOW! so they can use this in the throes of one of the most stressful times of the year!"

Know why I think this is so good to do right now? Because not only does it help reduce stress but also if you do overindulge, doing this will mobilize the overindulgence out of you! It's one of the best things for promoting detox.

Okay - here's what it is ~

The 7 Minute Body Scrub at Your Bathroom Sink: no special equipment necessary just hot water, a washcloth, and your naked bod.

Here's how to do this in a snapshot:

• Create privacy in your bathroom and have your nightclothes ready to put on


• Get a (preferably white) wash cloth


• Undress and stand in front of your bathroom sink


• Fold the washcloth over four times and without burning yourself, dip the washcloth into the water and wring out


• Starting at the top of your body (you can do your face or skip over it - I do mine lightly), slightly scrub the skin rubbing back and forth, circular, or downward motions.


• When the washcloth cools dip it back in, wring out fold and continue scrubbing (you'll start to see evidence of the results of your scrub on your white wash cloth)


• Work your way down your body - under your chin and neck and back of neck, chest, (around your breasts), down your arms (inside and out - making sure you get under your armpits), your hands including each finger and palm, stomach, lower abdomen, lower back and anywhere on your back you can reach, butt cheeks, and down both legs front and back, and even do your feet - each toe and soles of the feet. (Remember to keep dipping in the hot water and if the water cools, make it hot again.)

I like to balance by going back and forth on each side - after chest and torso - then one arm and hand, then the other arm and hand, then lower abs, lower back, butt cheeks, and then each leg.

Here are the physical advantages:

• Promotes lymph circulation to get rid of toxins


• Brings fresh blood supply to the whole body


• Oxygenates the body


• It has similar benefits to 30 minutes of exercise


• Exfoliates the dead cells on the surface of the
  skin

Here are the energetic advantages:

(This is my favorite part)

• Clears our energy field


• When we combine exfoliating the skin and mobilizing our lymph detox the body and mobilize the information that is in our lymph tissues and vessels - and I think that is where we carry our 'stories' - these 'stories' that go over and over in our mind cause us the most stress

I encourage you to try this and see how you feel! I was blown away when I started doing this and fell in love with the refreshing feeling I had and the deep night's sleep I would get. And, of course, when I combined this with my daily essential oil regimes (more about them later) I felt like a new person!

How Gratitude Can Improve Your Life / Nov. 24, 2010

How Gratitude Can Improve Your Life

Click here to watch this video

Let the energy of gratitude drastically improve your life!
It is so ridiculously easy!

Most people don't even think about this, let alone apply it. Why is that? Probably because it is so easy and it doesn't cost a thing!

Thinking grateful thoughts can:

• Diminish negative thinking
  
  
  
  • A negative thought cannot reside in the same mental space a positive thought resides. Grateful thoughts are positive thoughts. Initially it might feel like an effort to consciously control what you are thinking, but after awhile it becomes a natural habit.
    


• Attracts what you want
  
  
  
  • Grateful positive thoughts set up a vibrational field that works with the Law of Attraction, where like attracts like. If this is something hard to grasp, just try it. Have some fun and give it a try for the fun of it - and watch it really work!
    


• Help you heal
  
  
  
  • Gratitude is a step toward forgiveness, and forgiveness helps you heal. Being grateful for adversities, and forgiving those who have hurt you is the most powerful way to heal your life.
    


• Make you happy
  
  
  
  • Feeling grateful for so many little things (along with the big things) that are part of every day life is a most empowering practice. The continuous practice of feeling grateful results very naturally in an elevation of mood and happiness.
    


• Improves health
  
  
  
  • Gratefulness brings up one's vibration, and the more vibration and vital force in the body/energy field, the greater the level of health.

Here is why ~...how did you feel the last time you ate a holiday dinner that included hors d'oeuvres, wine, bread stuffing, meat, potatoes, cruciferous vegetables, and pie topped with whipped cream or ice cream?

Letme guess ... Bloated - Stuffed - Gassy - Spacey - Tired

It's not unusual for people to complain about eating too much, and the complaint is often accompanied by whines about bloating and grunts about pain. This discomfort can be some serious stuff! I know! I've been there! - and I want to do the best I can to avoid it - short of depriving myself all of the food. Even if it's organic and whole - the combining of those foods can play havoc on our gastrointestinal system.

So what can we do to prepare our own tummy for these treats?

Two things you can start with right away - this week! (one week from Thanksgivingso its a GREAT time to get on this regime!)

1. - Probiotics

2. - Digestive Enzymes

Additional info:

Take your acidophilus or probiotics on a daily basis to help to populate the gut with some good bacteria - the kind that will help balance the eco-terrainof your internal environment. It's important to take these on an empty stomach - even if you read some labels that say to take with food.

Actually, I have found the less expensive acidophilus (the kind they sell in pharmacies or places like CVS) instruct you to take with food. I would be cautious about them - they probably don't have many or any live cultures in them. If they did, they wouldn't tell you to take with food! Taking a good quality probiotic or acidophilus on an empty stomach helps ensure that the bacteria will take and be 'planted' and not be diluted with food.

Besidestaking capsules of acidophilus/probiotics - there are other ways to get these good live cultures into your belly and line that intestinal track withgood flora:

-Yogurt (preferably plain unsweetened)

-Kefir

-Cultured foods such as cultured vegetables found in Donna Gates material (author: The Body Ecology Diet)

Here's what to do for the bloating and discomfort after you've eaten...

1. One of my absolute favorite products for this, from Young Living is Alkalime!
Mix this white powdery substance in a glass of water and drink down - for instant
alkalinization. I guarantee you will fall in love with this product.

2.Rub some DiGize and/or Peppermint oil on your belly. DiGize is an essential oil blend that balances digestion. Peppermint is good for that also.

3. Take a walk! Even though you might be feeling tired after turkey - get yourself outdoors for a walk around the block - with your favorite family member.

4.Last but not least - Laugh! Laughter is good all around for balancingthe body mind and spirit, and awesome for digestion - so make sure you sit nextto the funniest family member at your dinner table!
