There are many experiments being done to show the affect of emotions and intentions on physical matter.

This one can be found on “Conscious Acts of Creation” by Dr William Tiller, Ph.D., Stanford University Professor Emeritus.  He speaks of several different experiments he did with intention but my favorite is one he did where he was able to raise and lower the ph of water using human intention.  That greatly interested me because for years I have been demonstrating that I could create fear energy and love energy and project it into water to be absorbed by strawberries to slow or hasten their deterioration.  I allow them to float in the water and then put them on plates to be observed for several days.  The emotions I feel along with the intention to create either a fear strawberry or a love strawberry always results in the fear strawberry deteriorating much more rapidly than the love strawberry.

Dr Tiller worked with experienced mediators who held the specific intention in mind in an area that had been prepared for the experiment. He created a device to capture the intention, shipped the device with the intention across the country and then tested the response to the intention that had been created.  He was able to both lower and raise the ph of water one unit-a significant amount-that amount of change would kill a human being.  He also worked with fruit fly larvae to reduce the amount of development time from larvae to the adult fly stage and he was able to increase the thermodynamic activity of liver enzymes-all with intention.  He claims to have done thousands of studies and says that there is robust information indicating the power of human intention.  I quote him in saying “I claim for these four experimental results, that the unstated assumptions of conventional science are very, very, very wrong.”

 

The How To NOT Use Your Mind Power Lesson-Thanks Mom!

It’s Mother’s Day and I wonder if you might be using your mind power like my mom did when I called her today.

I called to wish her a Happy Mother’s Day but I greeted her with, “Hi Mom, how are you?”  Her reply, “I am FAT!”

Those are powerful words, and especially when you declare something after saying “I AM.”

Up to this point, she had been mentioning how happy she was that her weight had gone down a little. But today she was talking about the sweet treats she had received in the mail from my brother, and eaten.  Now that the party was over, all she could see was the negative results in her mind’s eye.  She was expecting the scale to go up and claiming the reality of it.

Using your mind power in a different way can change what your brain believes about your life.

Your brain’s language is images and you can pretty much make it believe anything you tell it.  Your mind power is a force of energy that finds its way into physical form.

And my mom was doing what we all do at times but need to be more aware of.  (By the way, I called her back to get her permission to share this.  She gave it but added, “Make me look good.”  I had to say, “Sorry Mom, that kind of defeats my purpose. It looks like I need your permission in writing.  You’ll probably be cussing at me from heaven some day when you read everything I’ve written about you.  I want you to remember that I always ask first.”  I love to hear her laugh and we had a good one over that.  I’ve never heard a cuss word come out of her mouth.)

Anyway, my point is that you can use your mind power in a much more productive way.  It takes a little discipline but when you feed it the images you want it to see, from a peaceful state of mind, it accepts that as reality.  You become proactive and spoon feed your brain instead of being reactive to the images that pop in because of what you fear will happen.

Yes, that takes a little effort, but so does sit ups.  And we have to pay the piper one way or another when we over indulge.

When you use your mind power in this way, it acts like any muscle that you work out.  It takes some effort at first but then becomes a walk in the park.

 

Topic:  Your Mind Power

 

It seemed like it would be a normal Friday, if there is such a thing as normal anything. I woke up and immediately went to my “mental workshop,” my sacred space that I have created and used over many years.  I spent a few minutes focusing on my breathing and paid attention to what I was feeling.  Then I used my thoughts to create a positive feeling in my body so I was in the best space for contributing something positive to the planet and for getting my work done.  I did my best to feel Love in my heart and imagine Light flowing into my heart and out to anyone or any situation it could support and uplift.  I created my intentions for the day and went on my way, never suspecting there was a great challenge minutes away.

When something happens, positive or negative, there is usually a detail you can recall that brings back the moment when you think of it later.

Mine will always be reaching to open my curtains that day.  I got a feeling and I knew I needed to prepare myself for something that could be emotional.  My first thought was that I needed to be at peace and in total control when reading my emails.  It was a feeling that could easily have been missed but I had just come from my morning quiet time ritual and was pretty tuned in.

I felt something and I love that we all have that gift and ability.  We have an inner GPS if we keep the noise and chaos down so the signal gets through.  To my way of thinking, it is a Higher Power, but I don’t think it matters what you call it or consider it to be.  A message got through and I listened to it.

I won’t go into my back story here but a couple of years ago I had just come out of a very low point in my life after suffering great loss.  And I would have preferred to stay in the background for a while longer at the least, but some pretty miraculous things had been happening.  They made it very clear that I was meant to go back to coaching and teaching the process I use.

I had made a decision to put that on the shelf for a while and just continue to use my process to get back on my own feet.  But I had also made a commitment to willingly flow with whatever direction things went.  My personal feeling was that I wanted to put a little more distance between the new improved me today and the memories of the times I went through not that long ago.  But “The Universe” had a different plan and had made that very clear.

My answer came through a flood of people who showed up in the most amazing ways, literally overnight.  And on the day that I had set as the day my decision would go into effect.

So I flowed with the guidance I felt I was getting and started my mental/internal work with the idea of developing something that “The Universe” can work through.  Part of my process is to reach a strong state of internal peace and then set an intention for the Light in me to reach the Light in anyone else who is meant for whatever coaching/training program is about to develop during the creation process.  I send out peaceful feelings and Light and Love with the intention that those seeking the solution I can provide will connect with me if it is for their highest good. (You can do this too for things near and dear to you if you practice the process, just like I have to do.)

I feel a sense of complete surrender that whatever happens is out of my control; it is handed over to a power far greater than what the little physical me wields.

And then people I’ve never met show up in my life saying things like, “I just knew I had to contact you,” or “I just had a feeling there was something different about you.”  And I always know it has nothing to do with me, at least not the ego part of me.  They are drawn to something that is inside each of us if we let it shine in its natural state.

This takes some effort but when I do my part, people seem to find me who can benefit from the work I do.

Why I Give a Lot of Thought to Pricing

Anyone who knows me knows that I couldn’t care less about money. I’d walk away from everything to reach my life’s goal of being able to truly feel Love in my heart for others, at will, in any situation. That is the only drive I have and it comes from seeing my life review during my death experience during my car wreck and NDE. That probably sounds crazy, but it truly is the only real goal I care about and everything I do works towards that end.

I know I will see every detail again someday and that is what drives me. But I still live in the physical world and have to make a living. So that can be a real conflict, as it is for so many who want to help others but have to support themselves too.

Hard lessons have shown me that I can’t invest in my own personal development and spend tens of thousands on coaching training and developing the expertise I have and give it away free.

So like I do with most things, I ask for guidance and listen to my feelings in an attempt to do what is for the highest good. I really want to help people be more empowered so I freely speak about and write about the details of my process. I have free audios, videos, articles and a free ebook that breaks down my stories that I use as models for anyone to follow.

Many times I want to coach someone without charging them, but I usually get a warning signal about that; I intuitively feel something that I have to listen to. And I also use logic because in all the years I spent doing that I never once saw results in the person who had no investment in it. When someone is willing to invest in something, it is meaningful to them and it has a better chance of being used so they receive the benefits.

And I have come to feel that “The Universe” may have been trying to get a message to me that I wasn’t hearing. That may have been the reason so many very unusual computer, server and backup glitches came all at once that resulted in the loss of my entire online business in 2011. It shook up my world in a big way and it has taken a lot of blood, sweat and tears to get back on a better track.

So as I opened my curtains and felt the warning to be at peace, I pretty much felt like someone was going to be frying me for something again. It is generally one of two things. It’s because I am only out to take people’s money and don’t care about anything but that, like everyone else, or, Satan has me in his grip because I say that God loved me, even with all of my faults I was seeing in my life review. I explain that I wasn’t judged and condemned, I felt only Love. It caused me great pain to feel such Unconditional Love while watching how my negative emotions and bad attitude affected others, so I did feel accountable. But that came from me and not from fearing the judgment that had been passed on me. I felt nothing but Unconditional Love from God, or whatever you want to call the Being of Love and Light that met me at the end of the tunnel.

And now I stood at my window, wondering about this feeling that had come over me.

So to see what it was all about, I went to my computer, paused and did some deep breathing just long enough to build up a feeling of peace in my heart. Then I opened my email to find this explanation from someone who had just unsubscribed from my list.  He was explaining why.

“I first came across Terri Rose on youtube, loved her story on her NDE and it appeared genuine.. after watching a few more videos I thought I’d get on her email list .. after receiving several emails, I find that most do not offer pertinent info unless you pay money, and not $5 bucks or $10 bucks, but $97 or more.. I realize everyone needs to make a living but my goal was to align spiritually with Terri in hopes that she would help me on my journey.. however, through research of my own, I’m starting to help myself and I suppose that’s the only way to go now-days. Selling spirituality, that’s exactly what ministers, bishops, cardinals, and the like, that’s what they are doing – selling salvation – and, as much as I hate to say it, Terri Rose (as nice and down-to-earth she appears to be) is doing pretty much the same thing … “

Comments like this in the past were why I had determined I would stop coaching and putting my stories out there in such a public way. I didn’t think I had what it takes to withstand the criticism and judgment that is part of the program when you do that.

A Milestone

What happened next is the most exciting thing that has happened in my life in a long time. I STAYED AT PEACE AS I READ HIS WORDS. For the first time, I didn’t have the usual stress reaction that I have worked so hard to eliminate. And that is why I am so passionate about the work I do on myself and with others. No racing heart, no knot in my stomach, no rush of adrenaline, no physiological stress reaction. That is what I knew I had to attain if I was going to put myself out there again.

I am using this example because the majority of people spend the majority of their time at a high level of stress, reacting to one thing after another. But I’ve seen firsthand that it is possible to break that cycle.  We can develop the ability to shift into a peaceful state of mind and body and let that feeling carry us through the storms. Until we have peace in our own lives individually we can’t bring sanity back to the planet.  And we really need to do that.

Thankfully, just like negativity can pop in unexpectedly, there is also so much good that can happen out of the blue.

“The Universe” (God, Source, Higher Power, Creator) works in such mysterious and wonderful ways at times. It felt like the timing of something else had been orchestrated, as if I was being given a special reward for my efforts.

I found another email. It was from someone who told me she had also found me online through my NDE story. But in contrast, here is some of what she said had attracted her to me and why she had purchased 2 of my coaching programs.

“You provide a lot of info for free and at a very reasonable price. I remember thinking, ‘Wow. This woman really gives a lot of herself to make the stuff she’s learned available.’ And the free stuff isn’t just fluff, sucking you in so that you’ll shell out the bucks. As you know, so many ‘spiritual gurus’ charge (IMHO) outrageous prices for their workshops, etc.”

I am the same person but the perception of 2 people couldn’t be more different. What matters is what I know in my heart to be true and that I don’t let the opinions of others affect my peace of mind. I used to have no control over my emotions years ago, but it’s nice to know that doing simple things consistently changed that and brought me to where I am today.

I share this to give you hope if you are someone who has wounds, secret fears or bad memories that hold you back. There are always going to be people who reject you and that can hurt. But you can heal and get to the point where I found myself today. It was a very big moment that I am so grateful for. My body didn’t react in pain and shut down to protect myself or prepare so I could run away, literally or figuratively. Those are the moments I live for.

I caught the sign; I listened to my intuition so I could be prepared and then actually felt compassion for this person who judged me as he did. I was able to imagine that he was probably seeing things through the filter of his own painful experiences and trying to protect himself from pain that he feared I might cause. I was able to understand that.

So I can move forward with my own life, knowing I am on the right path. I am able to teach others how to use techniques and tools that will free up so very much of their energy. Then it can be focused on acquiring a life that is full of the things most important to them.

“The Universe” lined everything up and delivered a great gift to me today. It was the knowledge that I truly have changed from the inside out and that I’m moving much closer to the goal I envision every day.

The process I use and make a way of life, will work the same way for you too.

What to look for when your affirmations for success aren’t working for you…

Doing more of what’s working for you makes sense but saying affirmations for success when they aren’t working doesn’t make sense.  But too often, a person will just keep saying them.

Here’s the problem with that.  You aren’t feeling it with your heart and there is no amount of forcing that can cause a feeling to be there when it isn’t-not in this case anyway. You can talk yourself into being grateful for something simply by using logic, but when there is trauma in your past or something has registered as painful that causes discomfort when it is remembered, your autonomic nervous system kicks into gear and prepares you for physical danger.  That isn’t something you control.

If you are saying affirmations for success as your brain is referencing any associations it makes with past experiences when you have been hurt, you are simply strengthening those neural pathways in your brain. That subconscious fear reaction that will repeat each time you affirm things that your subconscious isn’t on board with.

But there are affirmations for success that will work for you in these situations!

You just have to temper what you say with some clarifying language that “tricks your brain” into getting a little familiar with the thoughts without making it uncomfortable enough to shut down and prepare you to run from danger.

Our older brain, called the reptilian brain, was around in primitive times when there were real, physical threats at every turn.  If a caveman’s brain didn’t alert him when there was a threat, he probably wouldn’t be around tomorrow, so the reptilian brain didn’t mess around.  It shut down any bodily functions that weren’t necessary for survival so that blood could flow to the limbs, assuring the best chance of survival.

Today, when we are facing the stress of rush hour traffic or financial woes, the same survival mechanism kicks into high gear.  When you say positive affirmations that your brain doesn’t believe, it feels threatened and uncomfortable as emotions associated with past experiences are aroused.  If you are saying positive affirmations like I have $50,000 in the bank when you know that you can’t pay your mortgage in a few weeks, you subconsciously feel the stress of a fearful situation and your body closes off in protection.  But maybe you could get away with something like, “I am feeling grateful because I am working towards the day when I have $50,000 in the bank.” Pay attention to how it feels when you say it.  That is the secret.

Everyone is different so what works for one person may not work for someone else. But you can play around with your own qualifiers until you find affirmations for success that make you feel good as they roll off your tongue or go through your mind.

What is the REAL meaning of manifest, using your mind power, as opposed to the “after the fact” way it is usually used?

I could get on a real rant about the meaning of manifest, just because I have seen the emotional damage done and the cynicism created by its misunderstanding.  When looking at manifesting from the standpoint of things like “The Secret” and “Think and Grow Rich,” basically it means bringing something into the physical plane from the world of thought.

The problem with talk about manifesting desires is that so many people take something that has happened and then they say, “Look what I manifested.”  I’m not saying there is anything wrong with that but what I get concerned about is the fact that our energy is very powerful and it can be focused in a way that leads to the fulfillment of desired changes.  Most people totally disregard something that could be used to help improve their lives while they talk like they can just magnetize things to themselves at will.  In their hearts they know they don’t have that ability because there are things they want but don’t have and can’t seem to get.

Just think about it. Do you know how much trouble we would all be in if thoughts just popped into physical reality?  I know for sure that I don’t want all of mine showing up.  But thoughts used as a piece of the whole process does make a difference.

What is my point about the real meaning of manifest?

Whether you think of it in a spiritual sense or in a scientific sense now that studies indicate that something responds to intention, it is becoming more and more evident that the focus of our consciousness on any particular thing causes a reaction in a field of energy that there is much debate and discussion over.  That said, I don’t really care much about the arguments because I have a lifetime of examples where I did nothing physical to cause something to happen, such as in my last post “How To Manifest,” yet tangible things happened and something showed up in a very physical sense.  But it involved so much more than a thought or wishful thinking.

I would love to see more people who understand the meaning of manifest so it would be used to help solve their own problems and those of the planet, which are really one and the same.  My faith in a higher power comes in because I am a spiritually minded person but even if you just see it from a practical point of view, creating a clear intention and aligning your thoughts, feelings about it and what you see in your mind’s eye will have an impact.

Use This To Learn How To Manifest

I love it when real things happen that can be used to show how to manifest because there is a process that can be followed to put things in motion.  No one has total control and there are many things that remain a mystery, but when you believe it makes a difference, you have a tendency to work with your intentions, mental thoughts and the energy they produce and that leads to results.  It is something you do BEFORE as opposed to something happening and then saying, “Oh look what I manifested.”

I’d say I manifested this book because I actually gave it conscious effort and then it came knocking at my door.  I wouldn’t call that a coincidence.

I know there is something to the fact that our thoughts and intentions do play a part in manifesting desires but it can take some skill to actually create a change.

Even if it doesn’t happen all the time, it’s nice to know it’s possible to make an intention known to both your brain and The Universe and that it makes a difference.

What was I thinking?

I had “a moment” one year and allowed myself to be persuaded that what I was doing with my mind was evil because it was so powerful. Things I focused on with my mind and energy often became physical. So I threw away a wealth of information I had studied over the years. Everything!

Years later, it was pretty upsetting to me that I no longer had one particular little book. I had studied it for clues on how to manifest, trying to understand how thoughts in the mind could bring about things in the physical world.

Now it was gone and in trying to replace it, all I could find was a plain looking paperback with a yellow cover that was missing the image of Walter Russell that had been seared into my mind. I searched and searched online and that was all I could find at the time so I ordered it. Now I see used copies everywhere but not in those days before “The Secret” took the world by storm and everyone jumped on the bandwagon.

I was really disappointed every time I thought of it or saw that yellow paperback. I had to work at not feeling resentful that I had thrown out my treasures because of someone else’s beliefs. I had allowed others to tell me it was wrong to visualize and focus my energy to manifest my goals in such a magical way. Thankfully, quantum mechanics came into being and some very reasonable theories that help explain things.

How To Manifest

One day I was ranting in my head about my loss and then I did what I always do, eventually anyway. I realized that I was feeding my energy to the problem and not the solution. So I immediately stopped doing that and used my formula I call Triangle For Success, TFS, and changed what I was thinking, feeling and seeing regarding my lost treasure.

I chose to think about the fact that I knew that somewhere out there was a copy of the book and that it would find its way to me. I did my best to experience the feelings I would have, knowing it was back on my shelf again. I saw it sitting there. I pumped up a strong feeling and made the image very real in my mind as I focused on the new thoughts. Then I just let it go with complete faith and went about my way.  Over the years, with trial and error, I had learned how to manifest and that releasing the idea with complete faith is critical.

And then one day not too long after that, a package arrived. I opened it to find a note from a good friend that said, “Just Because!” She had run across a copy of it, a little tattered and torn, but thought it would make a nice surprise because she had heard me mention the book in the past. I did not tell her I was focused on getting it back and she knew nothing about that fact. She just ran across it and thought it would be nice to get it for me. I’ve known her over 25 years and can’t remember another time she sent me a book so it’s not like that is commonplace.  Those are those seemingly magical things that happen and let us know that our thoughts and the energy behind them do matter.

So all I can say is, That is how to manifest!”

Today’s success coaching topic is all about self esteem. A friend told me about a video that has had a powerful impact on lots of people.

People had to describe themselves to a sketch artist and also someone else had to describe the person to the sketch artist.  It is interesting to see the reaction they had as they all realized that others saw them much differently then they saw themselves, much better than they saw themselves.

Most people are so focused on what is wrong and they totally miss what is good and right about themselves.

I love the question asked in this video. “What did you feed the field today?” It is one that I have been asking myself for many years because of what I saw about my life during my “death experience.” I felt a lot of regret and when I woke up in the hospital, I knew I had to find a way to get control over my negative emotions so I could contribute something better to the world.  My NDE made me aware that emotions have a vibration to them that changes according to which one is being experienced.

I saw that my  vibration of energy wasn’t having a positive impact on other people and I’ll never forget what it felt like to see that. It made an impression on me.  For years after my wreck, I tried to figure out how to stop letting everyone and everything push my buttons so easily.  I finally found the answers I was looking for but it was a long hard road to get here.  So I am still trying to make up for things by feeding the field a loving, peaceful, coherent energy.  It is amazing that the Global Coherent Initiative is in place and working on monitoring the effects of mass consciousness with the hope of creating a better world for all of us.  I love these guys!

I take the part of the “lab rat” in my success coaching to find things that work

I offer ideas and techniques in my success coaching programs that work in my own life. And the placebo effect is definitely something that I have always been fascinated by.  I became very good at creating the placebo effect for my own health. The way I discovered how to make it work came about because I would find a bit of information that supported the idea that some “thing” would support my immune system and help me stay well.

And then I used it and made a big deal out of it, telling myself that eating chicken soup was all I needed to do to reinforce my immune system and keep from getting the cold I felt coming on.  Or, this zinc lozenge is all I need to strengthen my immune system right now.  And of course, I would T-F-S it because that is a way of life.  I put supporting material in my T-thoughts, F-feelings, S-sight.  If I couldn’t create the idea that I was healthy or getting back to being healthy because of doing the “thing” that I was telling myself would work, then I worked on the area that wasn’t cooperating.

And that is my success coaching process I live by.

If you would like more information about the placebo effect, watch Ted Kaptchuck, a placebo researcher, explain.

What does the placebo effect have to do with success coaching?

It occurred to me one day that it is really the placebo effect that is working in the mind when that magical shift happens and your vision becomes your reality.  You have to pretend something is true and cause your mind to believe something when there is no real evidence of it at the time.  With a fake pill, the mind believes in a substance that isn’t real and the body heals and change occurs because of it.  When you use a fake idea, or create a vision of something that isn’t real (yet), the mind believes what it sees, like that you got the new job when nothing has actually happened in the physical world.  Yet so often, the change happens.

I use this technique in my success coaching because it consistently works for me in my own life.  I create an intention, make it very real in my mind so that all of my senses come alive, and then I keep my energy focused on it until I see that it has actually become real in the physical sense.

Amazing to think life works that way but it does.  My life experiences have made that evident to me.  I believe it, which is what makes it work.  Funny, strange, magical.

Mental Coaching Tip – Work With Your Brain As If It Is A Child

Mental coaching is the process of coaxing your brain to see success instead of believing your life is as it appears now.  You want to think about things and see them through a filter that shows the end result of what you desire, never considering any possibility but the one you are going after.

But that isn’t an easy thing to do for most people.  If you are trying to see the end result while in a state of stress, associations are made that will become more difficult to break the more you try.  It is counterproductive.

That is why choosing the best piece of the goal is important.  You have to gradually increase your vision sometimes when the end result is too unbelievable to your subconscious mind.  It may keep reflecting on painful experiences as a way of keeping you from further danger.

As Napoleon Hill said, “What you see and believe, you can achieve.”   But some people take that to mean that you just think about something and then you can attract it.  Be thankful that it isn’t that easy.

How many things did you think about today that you don’t want to attract into your life? How many times did you have a reaction of fear or a sense of lack when you thought about something related to your life?

Your brain is set to warn you of any chance of pain or danger and many of your thoughts have an element of pain attached to them if you are like the majority of people.

For success with goals, it takes much more than a thought if you are trying to create a change.  It takes a belief and unfortunately, that is something most people don’t have a good understanding of.  Your thoughts aren’t really your own.

Mental coaching is a huge part of reaching goals

Your brain can be thought of as if it is a child and it must be nurtured.  You must work with your thoughts and beliefs to change the ones that aren’t conducive to success. You believe what you do because the beliefs of influential people were ingrained as fact when you were at a very impressionable age.

In your formative years, your brain cycles at more of a hypnotic state where information is easily absorbed.  A child stays in the alpha brain wave state instead of the higher beta brain waves until about the age of 6 years old, according to cell biologist Bruce Lipton.  But as we all can see, as we  get older, we increasing spend more time in a state of stress when brainwaves are in the higher beta state. And trying to force-feed yourself information about your goals from that state just doesn’t help.

So mental coaching is needed to train your brain to see what you want it to see regarding your life while also working on feeling what life would actually be like if what you were seeing was actually your reality.
