Spiritual Awakening: What is Your Power?

Spiritual Awakening: What is Your Power?

When I was a kid I remember watching Superfriends on Saturday Morning and thinking how powerful these characters are. As I got older I began to ask the question, what is your power?  Over the years of exploring I found my power to be the ability to bring people together for the benefit of others. In high school I was the one who captained our March of Dimes Walk Team, in college I was the one who organized the special events like The Homecoming Bon Fire, where we collected donations for a local children’s hospital. After college I joined The Jaycees and quickly  began chairing special events. Today I do volunteer work with The American Cancer Society through Relay for Life and have found my power in fundraising. For the last 9 years I have been a STAR Supporter of The Relays that i participated in, raising a minimum of $1500 each year. Finding your power can be done by:

1: Meditation

2: Doing a Personal Skill Set Inventory

3: Finding What Makes You Come Alive

4: Looking at What Brings You Joy

5: Studying and Reading

Spiritual Awakening: Finding Your Path and Your Purpose

Spiritual Awakening: Finding Your Path and Your Purpose

I remember the movie, The Blues Brothers, the original with John Beluhi playing Jake and Dan Akroyd playing Elwood where they would state I am Jake and  this is my brother Elwood and we are on a mission from GOD! Their mission was well defined, to raise enough money to pay the property taxes to save the school that they attended as children. They had a unique way of furthering this mission. In the end they made it to the property tax office and paid the back money to save the school.  By defining their mission, being of service and value, and utilizing their talents these two offbeat musicians achieved their goal.

John Belushi(Jake) and Dan Akroyd (Elwood) contemplate their next move on their path to save their school.

Finding The Path:

Like Jake and Elwood you have a path it may not be as zanny and far fetched as it was in the movie, however it is a path and you are being guided to follow it everyday. In The Wizrd of Oz  Dorothy is told to follow the Yellow Brick Road. She and Toto follow the path meeting characters like the Scarecrow, the Tin Man, and  The Lion. The characters represent the universe putting people in our life to help us along our path. Dorothy wason the path so she could find her way home and the universe was providing her with help along the way.  What is our yellow brick road and who are we meeting along the way?

Dorothy, Scarecrow, Lion, Tin Man, and Toto find their path and recieve what they were searching for by heading the messages of the universe.

Spiritual Awakening: How To Make The Mind Body Soul Connection?

MAKING THE MIND BODY SOUL CONNECTION

 

 

I am often asked, JDOGG, How do you make the mind body soul connection. I usually answer with the Norman Vincent Peale quote “What the mind can conceive, the heart can believe, and you can achieve it.”   In May of 2011 I conceived an idea to host The Spiritual Entrepreneurs Visionary Awards and I beleived in my heart that this event was meant to take place and on March 24.2012 the event was held. It was an incredible day of learning how to make The Mind Body Soul Connection. Dr. Mia Merritt spoke about helping others and following your mission. Sarah Spiritual gave an inspiring presentation about connecting with source, Ernest Chu spoke about using spiritual capital, Angelika Christie spoke about overcoming fear, Ken Esrig spoke about starting from where you are. All the speakers sent a message that resonated with those in attendance. The Honorees, which are listed under the tab Meet The SEVA Honorees are amazing. When it was all done a donation of $218 was made to The Reaching Out To Cancer Kids Program.

The next week I attended Vision Quest 2012 and it was amazing how many people were their again learning to make the mind body and soul connection. One of the highlights for me was doing a breakthrough, which was captured on this video.

Spiritual Awakening: Lessons Learned From Helium Balloons

Lessons Learned From Helium Balloons

I thought wow I can show up the afternoon before The Spiritual Entrepreneurs Visionary Awards and set up the red balloons I had chosen to represent power. I was very happy when I left the church the balloons were flying high and I was ready for the next step. Saturday Morning I arrived at the church and the ballons had fallen from up on high to the floor. I though okay sometimes the best laid plans of mice and men go astray so what do I do? I used what was left of the helium to fill up a few ballons and then I just spread out some human air filled balloons around the room and continued to set up. As I continued to set up I began to realize the lessons being taught by the helium balloons:

1: You can plan and have expectations but sometimes things happen that you adjust to and it turn out better than expected

2: Always have a back up plan

3: Leave time the morning of the event to blow up the balloons so as to have your maximum impact

4: Don’t over react as things have a way of working out in the end.

Spiritual Awakening: Be An Advocate For Positivity

Spiritual Awakening: Be An Advocate For Positivity

What thoughts are you watering to create positivity?  We can wake up every morning and look at the negatives or we can choose to do something and change them to positives. Imagine if today a newscaster said breaking news 90% of  Americans are employed, 88% of property owners are paying their mortgage on time, or 89% of all high school students are graduating,  the change in attitude and the positive shift that would occur. Shifting from a gloom and doom, if it bleads it leads mentatlity to the concept of positivitity is going to take a conscience effort for people to become advocates for positivity.  It was written if you think you can or you think you can’t you are right. It is a lot better when you adopt The I think I can attitude.  You are a special person who can do anything you put your to. As Napolean Hill stated what the mind can conceive, the heart can believe, you can achieve. How many times have you had an idea to become an advocate for positivity and something held you back? It could have been the memory of someone saying you aren’t good enough that you haven’t released and said to yourself I am good enough and I am going to move forward in a positive direction and whatever happens happens.

Spiritual Awakening: Celebrate Life By Lifting People Up

Spiritual Awakening: Celebrate Life By Lifting People Up

 

I saw this quote and I immediately thought of the people that will be honored on Saturday 3/24/12 at The Spiritual Entrepreneurs Visionary Awards and how they are lifting up the people in the communities where they live, work and play. Each honoree has an amazing story and by attending the event you will have a chance to meet them and be inspired by them and be lifted by the experience. When we lift up others we also lift ourselves for we celebrate life by lifting people up. Think about it  after a big football game the winning team usually carries a coach off the field on their shoulders. I am figuratively lifing our honorees up on my shoulders to show tem respect and admiration.

 Don Shula celebrates life and his 317 career victory with his players.

Spiritual Awakening: Furthering Your Mission

Spiritual Awakening: Your Mission 

Your mission if  you choose to accept it is to lift others up and as a result lift yourself up. There are many people who have taken this mission and have realized that we are all interconnected and that when we lift eachother up great things happen. On 3/24 during The Spiritual Entrepreneurs Visionary Awards at The Unity Church in Pompano Beach you will meet many of the lifters. When this event was first conceived I  started to think who amongst my collegues can I recognize for their work in their respective communities to show that you don’t have to be a celebrity, an athlete, or a politician to effect change and here are those I have chosen to honor.

Spiritual Awakening: Discovering, Exploring, Taking Action

Spiritual Awakening: Discovering

 

The other day I discovered a new spiritual publication, Horizons Magazine while I was visiting Rev. Reckel Ferguson at Modern Zen in Davie Florida. The trip to Modern Zen was very enlightening as it always is as I was able to get centered and balanced and discover some new stones and essential oils to use on my spiritual path. The discovering part was incredible as I began to attract all types of support for The Spiritual Entrepreneurs Visionary Awards, which will be held on 3/24 at Unity Church in Pompano Beach from 9 AM – 4 PM with speakers Dr. Mia Merritt, Sarah Spiritual, Rev. Dr. Dee Adio Moses, Ernest Chu, and Ken Esrig. I discovered these speakers while I was doing a search on google and through Facebook. I asked the universe to help me find 5 speakers who are known and respected in the field and the universe conspired to help me to discover these 5 speakers.

Spiritual Awakening: What is Your Mission?

Spiritual Awakening: My Mission

As I began to speak about The Spiritual Entrpereneurs Visionary Awards I realized that there was a mission that was much bigger than me. This really started me thinking what is your mission? The answer came in the form of to share your spiritual path with others and hand out your business card that states The Spiritual Emcee Maximizing Your Message and see what type of reaction you get. I began to do this and as I handed my card to one person they immediately saw www.the-spiritualawakening.com and asked me about ascention, which led to a great conversation about spirituality and my blog and his path. The Bartender at Perfect Game in Coral Springs added to our converstaion and others joined in and the gentleman who I started the conversation with showed me the stones he carries with him.
