Inasmuch as life does not stay the same, it will be good for you to lean toward what makes you happy. Although thoughts of how badly life has treated you may give you some sense of vindication, such thoughts do not lift you to happiness. By and large, the more belly-aching you do, the more belly-aching you will continue to do. You play a losing game. However, the more you focus on what makes you happy, the more happiness will be yours.

In fact, right now, if you will think of something that gives you joy to think about, you will have more happiness right now. No matter what difficulties you may be in the midst of, if you like mountain climbing, make some plans to mountain-climb for this weekend. If you are bedridden and cannot, then read a book about someone else’s adventures of mountain-climbing and have some of the happiness you desire.

It seems obvious that thinking of what gives you even a little happiness works better in this moment than recounting all the reasons why you are not happy right now. How can anyone not know this or act on this? Go toward what you want rather than rattling off what you can’t stand another moment of. The fact is that you can stand it. The fact is that you can rise above it.

People often feel a need to do space clearing rituals when the house (or business) feels stagnant, when there has been something upsetting going and it’s lingering in the atmosphere, or just to keep the energy of a space uplifted. Occasionally people do space clearing techniques to rid the property of ghosts.

9 Procedures for Space Clearing

Space Clearing Tip #1 - Physically clean, dust and sanitize the house from top to bottom.

Space Clearing Tip #2 - Burn sage throughout. It comes in bundles and it is VERY smoky so open the windows as you walk through each room, filling each room with sage. You can even open up closets and cabinets so the sage smoke will seep into all areas. It does not leave a residue on anything.

Space Clearing Tip #3 - Ring bells, chimes or a gong in each room. This “moving metal” practice is actually a common Feng Shui remedy.

HJ: We live in a vibrational universe in which everything is affected by and interacts with light and sound.  Therefore we can reverse engineer this and begin to use light and sound for healing purposes.  After all, our sun, our greatest source of life, fuels both directly and indirectly all life on the planet.  Light truly is our essence and Indra, the founder of LumenOctave, has created an interesting philosophy and framework around light and sound that allows us to understand in both metaphysical and highly practical terms.

If you were to design your own human culture, what would you include? What would you leave out?

Here are some basic design questions to consider, based on the three core principles of personal growth.

Truth

How would your culture relate to truth? Would you create a very honest, truth-based culture? Would your culture encourage the discovery and sharing of new truths? To what extent would people own, hide, or manipulate the truth?

Would you create a culture based on shared stories and/or mythology, even if the stories are made up?

Embracing your own mastery, your own innate knowingness and complete capability as the expert of your own life expression, allows you to navigate your life in a way that is beyond doubt, hesitation, or fear. Certainty is the grounding energy of all conscious creation. ~Archangel Gabriel

You do not have to decide between what is right for you and what is right for the community. When you do what is right for you, the rest will fall into place. ~ Creator
