Change Your Thinking

Posted on April 24, 2018 Written by Cara Lumen

Change Your Thinking

“We can’t solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used
when we created them.”-  Albert Einstein, scientist

We resist change.  There’s too much unknown about trying things a new way.  But if we have a problem – no, when we have a problem – we need to look at what we did, what we said, what we thought. Because that’s what brought us to this exact place.  Unless we want to keep going in the same direction and attracting the same results, we have to change. 

What beliefs are you holding that brought you to this particular place in your life? I’m not good enough?  It can never happen? I’m afraid to try? Shift those limiting beliefs to positive affirmations and watch the doors swing open.

Have You Raised Your Sails?

Posted on April 17, 2018 Written by Cara Lumen

Have You Raised Your Sails?

“The winds of grace are always blowing, but we must raise our sails.”
– Sri Ramakrishna.

It’s so simple. Just raise your sails. Catch the winds of change.  Accept the opportunities and lessons that cross your path. Walk through the doors that open. Go exploring. Let the new path expand your awareness of the myriad of possibilities that await. 

Look around. Feel.  What is calling to you?  What tugs at your heart?  Learn to interpret the messages of your intuition.  

Follow them and lift your sails.

Start Where You Stand

Start Where You Stand

“Do not wait; the time will never be ‘just right.’ Start where you stand, and work with whatever tools you may have at your command, and better tools will be found as you go along.” – George Herbert, poet and priest

Wherever you are right now is a perfect place to begin.  Take a step.  Followed by another step.  Then look around at the new view.  

When a new idea pops in, explore it.  Let it take you wherever it does.  Do with it whatever it calls on you to do.  Each time you go exploring you learn, your experience is deepened, your skills are sharpened.  

Where are you now and what do you simply need to start doing?

Does Your Path Have Heart? 

Posted on April 4, 2018 Written by Cara Lumen

Does Your Path Have Heart? 

“A path is only a path, and there is no affront, to oneself or to others, in dropping it if that is what your heart tells you. Look at every path closely and deliberately. Try it as many times as you think necessary. Then ask yourself alone, one question. Does this path have a heart? If it does, the path is good; if it doesn’t it is of no use.” – Carlos Castaneda

What kind of measuring sticks can we use to see if our path has a heart?

It calls deeply to you. There’s always something you’ve been doing all your life because it’s at your core. It’s easy and natural and constant.  It makes your heart sing when you do it.  It lets you laugh out loud in joy. What is that path for you?  What has been calling you all your life?

You love to do it. You do it often. You do it with deep satisfaction. Expressing this aspect of your journey creates such joy that you can hardly wait to begin to offer it each day.

Your passion for it is compelling.  Your calling is so strong you cannot do anything else.

You experience being in a deep place of service. The path you are on is a gift to others, to the world, to you.  Each time you express this gift, this calling, you feel it touching hearts.

The more deeply you follow the path of your calling, the more fulfilling it becomes.  You become better at walking it.  Better at sharing it.  Better at being it.

Follow your path with heart.
