You Know The Holosync Solution Is Working When…

22 Comments

Yesterday morning I woke up at 5:30 – apparently I needed a bit of extra sleep beyond my now normal 5:00 am wake up time. I quietly rolled out of bed, made sure Ella and Melissa were all tucked in, and came softly downstairs. I opened the bathroom door and stepped inside, closed the door, and walked right into the little black cube heater we use to warm it up in there.

As the sharp pain in my toe registered with my brain, I felt a surge of anger accompanying the pain. In the past – as recently as 3-months ago – that anger would have expanded and become stuck inside me. It would have crawled up into my brain and activated thoughts of blame and resentment such as, “I’ve asked Melissa 3 times to move the heater back into the corner when she’s done with it. Why doesn’t she do what I ask?”

That anger would have become the dominant vibration in my personal energy field. I would have started my day from that place of anger and, until I shifted that vibration, I would have attracted experiences and people that matched my anger.

That is what would have happened not too long ago. But it’s not what happened yesterday.

I felt the anger. I noticed some of those thoughts urging me into blame mode. I felt that instant where I could have allowed those thoughts and that anger to take control.

It was interesting to watch the pain and anger and thoughts from a new and different place of awareness. I watched and, instead of fighting it or buying into it, I just stopped and breathed into the experience.

I followed the anger through the immediate source – the pain in my toe – down to the deeper source – my thoughts of resentment and feelings of betrayal that Melissa had, once again, left the heater in the middle of the floor – and finally, I followed that anger down to the underlying source, the dark, shadowy places inside myself that wait for moments like this to come lunging out of the dark and take control of my thoughts and actions.

I watched without judging and I allowed the anger to expand, recognizing and honoring the truth of my experience in the moment without letting that experience become who I am.

I was allowing a fire to burn big and hot and fast without adding any fuel to it. A fire like that is too hot to put out but burns itself out just as quickly as it starts.

Intuitively, I knew that if I tried to put this fire out I would get burned. In the past, I have tried to put out these fires. It doesn’t work. Attempting to deny, avoid or suppress the anger just gives it more power.

So I let this fire burn big and hot and fast. And since I was not providing any additional fuel, the anger burned itself out very quickly – this entire process took no more than 5-seconds – and I was left with a deep feeling of peace.

Bill Harris, the creator of the Holosync Solution and one of the featured Deliberate Creators in the movie The Secret, says that the Holosync raises the threshold of your trigger points. Since beginning to work with the Holosync I have definitely noticed a higher threshold.

In my relationship with Melissa, I notice things she does that would have definitely pushed me into a “triggered” before my work with the Holosync. Sometimes I don’t react at all to the trigger events, but more often, I still notice the charge coming up within me but I catch it before it pushes me into an unconscious, triggered space.

I don’t think there’s any way to test or “prove” this, but I think if I had this toe-stubbing experience back in September, before beginning my work with the Holosync Solution, that anger would have been with me for a long time. I would have been adding logs to that fire all day! And I would have attracted more and more reasons to keep throwing wood on that fire.

Will the Holosync work for you? That’s pretty much up to you. I’ve been extremely dedicated in my work with the Holosync. I listened to it every day for the first 30-days and since then have listened at least four days a week.

It’s a commitment. Like anything, it’s not a magic pill. You have to be willing to put in the time. And with the Holosync, that means one hour a day. (30-minutes for the first 14-days).

But the way I look at it, the hours that I have spent listening to the Holosync have saved me a ton of energy, pain and money. Just look at today. If I had allowed that anger to grow and get stuck inside of me, who knows what “angry” experiences I would have attracted into my life today.

Now, in large part because of my work with the Holosync, my dominant vibrational offering is one of peace and enthusiasm. What great experiences will I attract from this place? And how much time and money will it be worth?

How Do You Want To Die? Not A Rhetorical Question

Leave a Comment

Earlier today I was driving my daughter to her play-date. Today was not my scheduled day to pick her up from pre-school but my wife has not felt good for the past two days and I’ve had to pick up a few extra Ella “shifts.” This, on top of an already overly full schedule had put me into a bit of a fluster.

I was driving a bit fast given the conditions. It was raining quite hard and there was a lot of standing water on the road.

As we drove, the thought flashed into my head, “What if one of the oncoming cars skids and slams into us?” Admittedly, not a great thought, but it was a powerful motivator to turn inward for some self-exploration.

What if I died right then? What would my last thought have been? Something along the lines of, “I don’t have time for this. I’ve got way too much to do. Why couldn’t Melissa just get out and drive Ella like she was supposed to?”

Not the most positive thoughts in the world.

And what about feelings? What was I feeling in that moment? And if I had died, what would my last feeling have been?

Overwhelm, frustration, judgment. These are not feelings way up high on the emotional scale.

When examined in the light of the question,” How do I want to die?” it was crystal clear that I did not want to die with those final thoughts and feelings. I did not want to carry those thoughts and feelings back with me into Source. For I believe that is what we do when we die. We carry the thoughts and feelings that we are having at the instant of our death back into Source.

And with this clear awareness, it was quite easy to shift into better thoughts and feelings. What do I want to carry with me back to Source? Gratitude, love, peace, joy, contentment. These are the thoughts and feelings I want to contribute to Source when I return.

So this question, “How do I want to die?” can provide an extremely powerful inspiration on a daily basis. By holding that question in your awareness, it reminds you to monitor your thoughts and feelings and continuously reach for better ones.

How do you want to die? What thoughts and feelings do you want to contribute when you return to your Source?

Caution: Singing Driver, or, Tears of Joy Ahead

6 Comments

Accepting all I’ve done and said
I want to stand and stare again
Til there’s nothing left out,
It remains there in your eyes
Whatever comes and goes
I will hear your silent call
I will touch this tender wall
Til I know I’m home again.
Peter Gabriel

This past weekend, when my wife and I were up in Gualala for a quick overnight getaway, I saw a bumper sticker that said, “Caution: Singing Driver. I loved it! It reminded me of how much I love to sing in the car when I’m alone and how long it’s been since I’ve really blasted out some tunes.

This morning, on the way home from dropping off my wife and daughter at the airport for their visit to Mimi and Pop-pop, I had a chance to let loose with some good tunes.
Peter Gabriel’s “In Your Eyes,” the special mix live version, happened to be in the tape player. And if you haven’t heard that version, I highly recommend it. I was singing along with Peter, Paula and everyone else. I could feel the power of the positive, creative energy they generated when they recorded that song. It was palpable, both in their performances and in the response of the crowd.

As I sang along, with a beaming smile and tears running down my cheeks, so moved by the energy I felt flowing into and through me, I was reminded of a question that a student in my 12-week Law of Attraction course posed on the first night of class. After the guided visualization that connected her so deeply to her joy, she wondered how she could hold that level of intense joy, joy that threatens to bubble up and out of her through tears or other expressions.

At the time I wondered, a bit playfully, back to her and the entire class, why that would be such a bad thing. To feel joy so intensely that tears come would mean that, as Abraham says, you are pretty “tapped in, tuned in and turned on.”

Too bad it is that we don’t feel comfortable at the prospect of walking around all the time with tears of joy and a big smile on our faces. What would our neighbors and co-workers and family think of us? They’d probably consider us loony and have us hauled away to the funny farm. (Hmm interesting name!) 

When I picture the mystical poet Rumi, it’s not too much of a stretch to imagine him walking around with tears of joy constantly flowing down his face. Jesus, too, I can imagine having extended moments of overflowing expressions of joy.

And while I’m not quite ready to call in 24/7 tears of joy, I am open to allowing many more experiences and expressions of joy into my life!

What brings you to tears? What awakens such a profound sense of joy that you can’t help but allow the tears to flow?

For me it is music that harmonizes with my essence, my daughter’s exuberant “dada!” as I walk in the door, a visit from a hummingbird just when I feel lost and disconnected from my joy, the story of a student sharing a newly remembered connection to their joy. These moments connect me to my joy. Yes, the joy threatens to and often does overflow into tears. And that’s just fine with me!

The Images of Money

Leave a Comment

“If money was a person, who would it be?”

Drew Rozell asked me this yesterday during the Inner Circle Coaching Group that he leads. When I checked in, I immediately saw an imposing, conservative looking, older man, dressed in a suit and tie, obviously wealthy, and, at least to me, unapproachable and intimidating. In his presence I felt diminished, withdrawn, and I wanted to stay that way. I did not want to be seen by this man. The thought of being seen by him made me cringe, as if his attention would make me even smaller.

It was quite an image, and quite a revelation for me. Money has never been the focus of my practice. And that lack of focus has shown up through a rather inconsistent flow of money into my life. Some months there’s plenty, other months there’s not a whole lot. Seeing this image explained why true abundance has eluded me up to now.

At the beginning of the year, I made the commitment to shift my focus more towards money. Not that money would become the reason for what I do, but that it would become a welcomed aspect and benefit of my work.
When I connected with that old, unwelcoming man image of money I knew I had some shifting to do.

Who would I replace that man with? Who would I choose to represent money?
The answer literally came running to me in meditation.

The new image of money I choose to embrace is a young boy, perhaps eight years old. He is running around a playground, blissfully enjoying the sun and the swings and the jungle gym. He is beckoning me to join him, to play with him, to revel in the wondrous innocence of childhood and the abundance of the world around us.
There is so much freedom in that image. The feeling reminds me of the scene in the movie Hook when Robin Williams finally remembers that he is Peter Pan and takes off flying out over the sea.

For me, connecting with money from a place of innocence and joy and playfulness feels so much more inviting than from a place of conservative, stodgy seriousness. After all what is money for if not to expand the ways in which I can play in this life?

So when it comes to money, from now on you’ll find me at the park, swinging on the swings and sliding down the big spiral slide and generally have a grand old time.

And by the way, this image of money asked me to let you know that there’s always room for more playmates at the park!

I hope to see you there.

Resisting my Purpose

Leave a Comment

In my Coaching with God session yesterday, I explored the resistance I’m encountering as I move into a more complete alignment with my purpose. Today as I sat, still feeling the inner struggle, reflected by a sense of fatigue, I looked up from my desk to see a wonderfully vibrant rainbow. It reminded me of the beauty inherent in every moment and the purpose that infuses my every action – even when I might think otherwise.

I know I’m not alone in feeling this resistance to aligning my life with purpose. I see it in my clients and friends and family. In the past I have fought this resistance. Now I see that fighting it just leads to more of it. By fighting the resistance, I match its energy and vibration, thus attracting more of it into my life. “Like attracts like!” Or, in this case, you could use the negative corollary, “What you resist, persists.”

As I sat, watching that rainbow fade away, I could feel myself letting go of my resistance to the resistance. I know it sounds a bit strange, but as soon as I allowed myself to accept that resistance, it immediately began to release.

The resistance I feel to living on purpose serves a truly valuable function: It lets me know when I am close to my purpose. In the past, when I have been walking on a less purposeful path, this resistance has not been present. Sure there have been other uncomfortable symptoms and signs. But this specific resistance is clearly responding to my increasing alignment with purpose.

And so I welcome this feeling of resistance. I welcome this particular signature of fatigue. For I know that when it is here, I am getting closer to a life aligned with purpose.

Start Your Day with a Smile

Leave a Comment

Try this: Every morning, when you first become aware of your wakeful presence, smile! Start your day with a smile. Make it your intention to have the very first intentional thing you do each day be a smile. You’ll be amazed at how powerfully that one act can be at setting the tone for your day. Do it no matter how tired you are, no matter how little sleep you got, no matter how much you’re dreading some aspect of your day. Smile.

I love this quote from Thich Nhat Hanh: Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy.

Remember that a smile can brighten a person’s day. And if you wake up with a smile, it just might be your day that gets brighter.
