YOU and YOUR infinite Spirit

Your spirit like mind and body is infinite – because it is ALL YOU

And that which is YOU is all infinite – YOUR physical body will die

But there is consciousness and soul and energy which is ALL,

EVERYTHING and FOR ALWAYS out there in the ether.

Dr. Pattakos book with Dr. Covey and Viktor Frankl’s life story

Is about how YOU have wonderful meaning in life – but the

Journey sometimes has bumps and mountains and YOU much

Learn to navigate over and around those bumps and mountains

In YOUR own unique way.

Some of the ways:

Exercise the personal freedom to choose our attitude and outlook

Realize our will to meaning or significance

Detect the meaning of life’s moments and questions

Do not work against our self

Look at our self from a distance

Shift our focus of attention or maintain fluidity or perception

Extend beyond yourself

YOUR life is what YOU make IT –

MAKE it great

MAKE it meaningful

MAKE it with love and forgiveness so you have JOY

So you have peace, harmony, and contentment at the end.

Viktor Frankl was a professor of neurology and psychiatry at University of Vienna Medical School and was the founder of what was call school of logotherapy. Frankl’s theory is that man’s search for meaning is the primary motivation in his life. The strength of a person’s sense of meaning, responsibility, and purpose is the greatest determine factor in how that question will be answered.

How do I go about making my life meaningful?

How do I go about making my life have a purpose?

We have great power to shape our attitudes and responses to the challenges that life presents to each of us, and that we grow thanks to these challenges.

Our spirit grows as our mind grows as our body ages.

Leave this plane knowing that you have left it with meaning, purpose and left your mark on family, friends and the many that have passed in the night.

Like someone said:

Frankl’s book will not show YOU the meaning of life but he will help you develop the tools, because you are unique, to develop the tools to find your own meaning.

Ralph Waldo Emerson was the person below,

“He did not try to lead others to himself, but to themselves”.

There it is again:

“What Does Life Expect From YOU?”

Tools to help YOU find that out is here at this website and that is my goal.

Nietzsche’s dictum is “He who has a WHY to live and bear with almost any HOW,’

Start today and continue on for the rest of your life here on this plane – learning, growing, developing, being a part of, sharing, loving, forgiving, having JOY

In all his tragic trauma Dr. Frankl found that meaning in his life and that is what he wanted, in all his writings, for you to have found YOUR meaning – in all your uniqueness, in all your tragic and trauma from living. Find it for SELF, for peace, for quiet, for forgiveness, for love, for the JOY

YOU and YOUR Life Theory

YOU are unique and in your uniqueness is only YOUR theory

Most of us are always growing, learning, and developing

throughout our lifetime. If you are not growing, learning, and

developing then YOU are stagnant and stressed everyday.

My sister was stagnant and stressed everyday – she died o

Leukemia at 65 and when given 2 weeks to live she called me

and we were talking and she said;

“I wish I had done more with my life; I know I could have”.

I told I know she could have also and so sad for her at these

last weeks of her life she acknowledged and knew she could have

done more, been more, succeeded more. Instead, she chose

the easy way of being on social security disability. There

is nothing wrong with that except that in her case she just took

the easy way out instead of making the daily effort of knowing

SELF and finding out her Life Theory and have peace, joy and

Harmony in that.

She was bright, and very nice and could have had a very

successful career if she would have put forth the daily work

I believe that do not ask what YOU expect from life but ask

The major theory here:

What does Life expect from ME?

When you ask yourself that question you are forced to go on a

journey of Selfhood and YOU will know what life expects from

You.

Life is not always fair, life is not always easy, and life can be

painful, life can be trauma, life

READ about these people and you will see their journey of

pain and trauma but they produced and empowered themselves:

Immanuel Velikovsky

Jim Garrison

Viktor Frankl

Paul Erdos

Alexander Solzhenitsyn

They all came up with their own Life Theory but it was theirs

based on the truth and how they lived their life.

They did not care what other people thought.

They did what they did for the truth

They each knew Selfhood and the consequences of that

Knowing their own Life Theory

From my reading these wonderful people who have left so much

behind for us to believe in and find our own Life Theory I have

taken something from all of them plus hundreds of other people

who have written or made a different in our world history – in the

past and for in the future we will have their books and their

stories.

I believe that we cannot move up and forward unless we see and

learn from others on their Life Theory but knowing our self and our

characteristics all adds to knowing

What Life expects from YOU or Me or each person

Life Theory may come when you are young but for most people it

takes aging and developing over decades.

I have always had my own theory:

There are givers and there are takers.

I always wanted to be a giver, do what I can when I see a need,

respect other people’s space and opinion. Love always, have joy.

There are always going to be takers – I stay away from them just

automatically. Along with needy people, drama people and

whiners

YOUR high spirit is different from my spiritual development.

Our uniqueness is about everything in our being. So what

Works for me, do not expect to work for you and vice versa.

So on this blog there will be lots of different words and meaning

about all of us – whether mind, body, and spirit. My hope will

be that reading all of the blogs here and listening to the podcast

And reading the book: What Does Life Expect from YOU? You

will journey to the highest SELF in this life.

So today, we will talk about Dr. Danielle Dowling’s:

3 Ways to reconnect to your spirituality (especially when you feel

totally depleted).

What is a spiritual practice? It is an opportunity to connect and

commune with yourself and with whatever force whether you call

it God, the universe, Spirit, or the pages of your journal) guides

your life. Many have a spiritual practice without even realizing

they do, and for good reason. There is so much beauty in a

spiritual practice. They ae grounding, they are supportive, they

are the foundation for a healthy and conscious life.

Find comfort in community.

A spiritual practice can often feel life a very solitary experience-

you meditate, pray, or take long walks by yourself. There are great

comfort and connection in a spiritual community also. This can be

a church, a drum circle, a class on intuition, a concert, or

community of people who support and align with your spiritual

beliefs.

Take a personal retreat

Reconnecting with your spiritual practice simply requires

reconnecting with yourself. This can take as much or as little time

and money as you have to allot to it. Simply carve out some

space in your schedule-wither it is one hour or three days to

spend a long, reconnecting with your spiritual practice. Make a

light agenda for yourself. Will you pray, meditate, journal, take a

long bath, catch up on sleep.

The purpose of this retreat is to give yourself a dedicated time

and space within which to reconnect with yourself and with your

spiritual practice, or try something new that might reinvigorate

your spiritual connection.

3, Practice spreading love – I WOULD ADD “FORGIVENESS”

When it comes right down to it a spiritual practice is about

remembering love. It is about remembering that we and every

other human on this planet are love and are loved. One of the best

ways you can remember this by sharing that love with other

people.

Also, the most important love is to love SELF first above

everyone,

And forgive one’s self above everyone else.

After Self-love and forgiveness – give all that to family and friends.

Listed below are some issues that you need to think about so

that YOU can protect YOUR mind:

Negative thoughts

Mind Control

Memory

EMF

Negative Energy

Bad Foods

Toxic people

Stress

Alzheimer’s & Dementia

Useless & repetitive thoughts

Emotional Manipulation

YOUR mind has tendencies o think negative thoughts and these

negative thoughts hold captive your unlimited potential and

deprive you of the success you deserve

To control YOUR mind and prevent negative thoughts from

happening, you:

-hand around with positive people

-read a motivating book

-listen to a motivating audio

-stay away from negative people

-stop reading the news (which always negative)

There are easy solutions and relatively fast way:

The best way to stay positive and protect your mind from

debilitating negative thoughts is with

GRATITUDE

Take a few moments each day to be grateful for what you have

Do YOUR best to come up with 5 different things every day to be

grateful for.

Just saying “THANK YOU” to the universe – The Higher Power,

and God hears you all the time and know it is positive and

thankful.

NLP-Neuro-Linguistic Programming is one of the world’s most

prevalent methods of mind control, used by everyone from sales

callers to politicians to media pundits, and it is nasty to the core.

Here are 10 ways to make sure nobody uses it on you – ever

Tony Robbins used NLP techniques – along with most motivational

speakers today, the newscasters, pastors, and so on for many

people in sales.

Be extremely wary of people copying your body language.

Move your eyes in random and unpredictable patterns

Do not let anybody touch you

Be wary of vague language

Be wary of permissive languor

Be wary of gibberish

Read between the lines

Watch your attention

Do not agree to anything

Trust your intuition

Be careful – about this mind control – Tavistock Institute and

NLP – and just be aware of these techniques. DO not let fear

taking over anything of SELF – be aware. The more knowledge

you have the more secure and safe you are.

The way to protect yourself against Alzheimer’s and dementia is:

Physical activity

Weight control

Mental challenges

Social connections

Healthy diet

Prevention of disease

I have not had a microwave oven for 15 years now and

knew how bad not only the food cooked in them was bad for us

bodies but the sauce of electrical magnetic radiation comes off

them also.

From all the years of research and practicing meditation and

Prayer the conclusion is that what works is:

MEDITITAION

GRATITUDE

THANKFUL

FORGIVENESS

LOVE

Let YOUR family and friends know that you practice all 5 of the

topics listed above. Mostly by actions and being proactive in all

YOU do.

There is just too much in today’s environment that can make

YOUR mind, body, and spirit go into the negative realm.

Life is too short to be anything other in the positive realm of

A thought which controls the mind, body and spirit.

YOUR immune system functions optimally when your body has

an adequate supply of electrons, which are easily and naturally

obtained by barefoot contact with the earth.

Research indicates that electrons from the earth have

antioxidant

effects that can protect your body from inflammation and its

many

well-documented health consequences. For most of our

evolutionary history humans have had continuous contact with

the earth.

It is only recently that substances such as asphalt, wood, rugs,

and plastics have separated us from this contact.

The earth maintains a negative electrical potential on its

surface.

When you are in direct contact with the ground-walking,

sitting, or

laying down on the earth’s surface that the earth’s electrons are

conducted to our body bringing it to the same electrical

potential

as the earth. Living in direct contact with the earth grounds

you’re

body, inducing favorable physiological and electrophysiological

changes that promote optimum health.

Earthing is highly beneficial to our health and minimizes the

consequences of exposure to potentially disruptive fields like

“electromagnetic pollution or dirty electricity.

I have done earthing over the years – and not as consistently as

would have like to or should have. But I have known it has

been

beneficial to us for years. When I go and sit in the grass or just

stand in the grass or ground I can feel the energy flowing up

and

through my body.

Some of the research has been finding that some of the benefits

are:

Decreasing inflammation and chronic pain by defusing excess

positive electrons

Improving sleep by normalizing biological rhythms, including

circadian rhythm

Increasing energy through improved blood flow and blood

pressure

Lowering stress and increasing a sense of calm by reducing

stress hormones

Improving menstrual and female hormone systems

Accelerates the healing or wounds and shortens recovery time

from injury or athletic activity

Relieving muscle tension and headache

Protecting the body from EMF’s and re-directing damaging

electromagnetic energy

Support adrenal health

At the time there are a dozen or so completed studies on

grounding that has proven beyond any doubt that becoming

grounded has significant positive effects on our physiology and

heart health.

Really has lots of information on lowering stress and creates

calmness so take heed and go out and stand/or sit in the grass.

is okay – you will be able to, like me, feel the energy moving

within your body.

YOU should go barefoot and try for 40 minutes a day. They say

concrete is conducive but I like grass, dirt or sand. They say

concrete floor ==like basement floor is ok. Barefoot for sure.

Grounding also positively affects your nervous system and has

been researched that may lead to a reduction in some of your

medications.

My goal since the 1980s has been not to take any medication –

to do that I have had to learn about SELF and what SELF

requires to stay healthy.

PREVENTION OF A DISEASE IS MUCH BETTER THAN

REACTING TO A DISEASE.

What YOUR goal should be, once You’re in control of YOUR life,

will be to learn and develop until the last day. Below will be laid

out some ideas to do that; learn and develop spiritually, mentally,

and physically into the answer of:

What Does Life Expect from YOU?

YOU will have the answers and you will be on a mission every day

to accomplish what like does expect from you.

YOUR powerful higher self’s energy:

Acceptance

A true connection with your spiritual energy cannot be forced. Your highest self is wise and uses the time to guide you, Embrace time as a friend designed to protect you from doing too much too fast or from straying too far off course before it is too late.

Meditate – Daily

Meditation helps to equip you with the innate ability to master a wider range of energy fields. It makes your mind and energy stronger and prevents you from getting sucked into other people’s negative energy – do not let anyone, family or friends daring you with any of their stuff. Do not take on other’s stuff. Learn to let go and let God. It is their stuff to take care of and not your stuff.

Practice Yoga

Yoga helps to discipline your mind, and it trains your nervous system so it is easier for you to process spiritual energy. Twice a week is fine.

Laughing and Crying

Laughter and crying are two of the greatest gifts given to us. Both enable us to heal, purify and release block that would have otherwise lowered our vibration. This, in turn, makes it much easier for us to tap into a higher level of spiritual energy.

Consciously practice Self-Love

With every loving and nurturing thought you give yourself, the closer you are to the truth, as the endless stories, patterns and traps of your mind are never real.

Stop feeding into self-talk that is negative.

Never doubt how truly awesome you are. You deserve love and

lots of it – from yourself. The more self-love the closer you are

into tapping into the amazing energy that your higher self-holds

Your high self is YOU, you in the ether, the real you, you are total

soul consciousness.

You living here on Earth is just a projection of the consciousness

of your higher self. YOUR higher self is the more complete YOU

– the one that

YOUR higher self-has access to your thoughts, goals, intentions,

everything you are thinking and feeling and wondering. There is a

conduit that goes directly between you here on earth and YOUR

higher self in the ether.

Everything we are is not stored in our MIND, BODY & SPIRIT that

is within our physical body but it is outside of us. Like we have

talked about energy field outside of our bodies

But, that we keep our MIND, BODY & SPIRIT in tip top shape is

so we get to that higher self and move ever higher.

I have several books and have researched over the years

Intuitive and mediums. This Blog is going to talk about

Life after Life and from several researcher’s views and then my

own thoughts.

First, my thoughts come mostly from the Fibonacci theory – and

the research that, to me, that is GOD, and the afterlife, and that

we, being energy, never die. And, of course, with that said, everyone has their own theory

So, I will share some about several of these researchers:

Albert Taylor, Ph.D.

Raymond Moody, Jr., M.D.

Suzanne Giesemann, Navy Commander/metaphysical teacher

Gary Schwartz, Ph.D.

The above people, in their own field, and coming from all

different perspectives all believe there is more to us than just us

and this solid, physical person within our skin.

I am not sure why there are people who are atheists – but there

are. Could never understand especially some of them:

Sigmund Freud – who did so much research on dreams and was

so highly educated. He was a wonderful father to his children,

and one of his daughters died of cancer in a seemingly long

death and yet never with all the education never tried to see, even

though he loved her immensely, beyond her life.

Suzanne lost her step-daughter, Susan, a sergeant in the Marine

Corps who was struck and killed by lightning along with her

unborn

son, killed by lightning which was almost 10 miles away. It

transformed her life into the unseen world. She and her husband

both believe Suzanne is able to discern in her communication

across the veil.

Speaking of the veil, it is all around us. Some people seem to be

able to reach beyond the veil. There are pilots, and regular

people, who have seen objects in the sky just disappear – there

seems to be a veil.

This must be where time and space merge – and what the theory

is about – with the 11 dimensions they now have figured

into being.

We have to listen to people’s stories. And below I will tell the

story of Dr. Moody while he was in the hospital.

Dr. Moody was ill and near death with heart problems and his

sister was near death in another part of the hospital. Dr. Moody

left his body and suddenly found himself in conversation with

his sister who was up towards the ceiling with him. He and his

sister were very close and they were caring on a conversation

when she started to move away. He wanted to go with her, but

she said: “You cannot go with me because it is not your time.”

She receded into a tunnel and disappeared. Dr. Moody awoke

And told his doctor that his sister had died. The doctor did not

believe him until he checked on it.

I think we accept that we are energy and that our soul or

consciousness survives our physical death we need to believe

that there is something beyond – it is just different.

But, everyone who comes back or has had an experience has

talked of LOVE and Loving

LOVE

FORGIVENESS

To me, those 2 words are the most important 2

YOU are YOUR childhood – mind, body, and spirit. YOU have

gone through the development stages of maturing into who you

are today – going from dependent upon your childhood

parents/mentor/guardians that make decisions for YOU to being

independent and making your own decisions about YOUR

Body, Mind, and Spirit

Most likely what you did in your childhood is what you usually do

in adulthood or you search for your own spirituality in your own

time and look for your spirituality outside what you had in your

childhood

You and I, as young children learned through their direct

experience and through observation of other’s behavior, and not

by way of abstract discussion. Children learn particular practices

by participating in them.

Besides immersing children in the ongoing practice of cultural and

religious traditions, parents can also foster children’s appreciation

of their heritage through games and crafts on their family and

cultural history, these are important for spiritual growth as we

develop and mature and age.

Cultural practices including music, language, food and dress are

important to each of us for all the time we are here. But, exposing

children to other cultures at an early age help develop them

tolerance and appreciation of cultural differences and diversity;

skills they will need to navigate the complex and culturally

interdependent modern world – our next door neighbor and

beyond.

A child’s spiritual life should be age appropriate. Overall

development of every child is unique. Before age 10 or so, the

spiritual parenting will have the most lasting effect if it builds a

foundation in the SELF rather than focusing on principles.

Every young child should feel that:

They are loved and lovable

Meditation can add to a sense of a child’s self-worth and even

power because it is an activity that belongs just to them.

The childhood brain is a factor here. It has been shown that

introducing mediation leads to behavioral improvements in older

ages – middle school and later.

Meditating is a wonderful thing for us adults but also with a child

it gives them a feeling of control and power.

Given the opportunity foo meditate a child or adult is able to

notice actual changes in themselves. They are calmer, more

centered, less troubled, less tempted to act out.

They are worthwhile in their parents; eyes

Being a good person comes from within

Happiness and fulfillment are natural

The child/adult learns how to be fulfilled and successful life, the

best route is through the spiritual life. We learn the value of our inner

The world, and as the years pass this value increases until the

realization dawns that all of the existence originates “in here” at the

level of the soul.

What a wonderful outcome you and I are – to find “in here” at the

level of our soul.

We are our childhood – hoping to reach the level we aspire to and

What Does Life Expect from Us?

YOUR lymphatic system touches almost every part of the body. It

is a network of fluid-filled nodes, vessels, gland, and organs.

Although e do not feel or see it, it is one of the most important

systems of the human body. It is important to give the lymph

system attention over the years and as YOU age.

The lymphatic system’s main function is to cleanse toxins and

protect against harmful invaders. It works by carrying waste away

from the tissues and into the bloodstream. It tackles toxins that

are introduced to the body from both external meas0food, air,

personal care products, water as well as internal ones-damaged

proteins and cellular/metabolic waste. It is a key detoxification

pathway.

Through lymph nodes and the lymphatic network, your immune

cells can travel around fighting pathogens, such as bacteria and

mold, and prevent disease and infection.

You have to keep your lymphatic system functioning properly for

your overall health of YOUR body.

The stronger the lymphatic systems mean a more resilient and

reactive immune response and defense

YOUR lymphatic system can become stagnant and especially

with toxic debris.

I have used a REBOUNDER for about 15 years now – and it is

Rated as not only the number 1 piece of exercise equipment but

It keeps your lymphatic network clean – if done regularly

Rebounding and keeping your lymphatic network clean helps

keep your youthful skin and body cellulite-free

So listed below are 10 natural ways to keep your lymphatic

network clean and clear so it can flow and do its work.

REBOUNDING

One of the easiest ways to pump the lymph network. And it also improves muscle tone and just over-all body good

INVERSION TABLE

Pad table that allows one to invert upside down while strapped in by the feet. Decompresses the joints of the body and stimulates the lymphatic and circulatory system.

LEMON WATER

How easy is that just plain lemon water? Use distilled or filtered water. Every day drink half your weight in water – add the lemon so your will be alkalizing your body and getting the water at the same time.

ENZYMES

Enzymes are also used utilize by the body to clear toxic waste buildup in the lymph and blood, making their supplementation a key way to improve lymphatic health.

MASSAGE

How wonderful does a good massage feel? I have had lymphatic massage over the years and is a special form of massage that specifically targets the flow of lymph network.

HERBS

Red clover is a good herb for lymph, increasing flow, which helps to detoxify the body and reduce inflammation. I make tea from red clover that I buy at a good grocery store.

DRY BRUSHING

Take a dry brush with coarse bristle and brush the skin towards the heart. This stimulates the sweat glands, opens pores, and gets rid of dead skin cells. Encourages movement of lymph and blood in underlying organs and tissues of the body.

EAT RAW FOODS

I always eat raw vegetables. And I juice a lot-chard and turmeric work well for my body. Put as many fresh vegetables into your body as possible.

GO WIRELESS

Get rid of the bras with wires – clogs up the lymphatic systems under arms.

PRACTICE YOGA

Yoga works in multiples way for the body. There are various forms of Yoga – try the one that fits YOU best but does Yoga for all of it’s benefits

YOUR thoughts

YOUR actions

Watch your words

Watch your expectations

Do not let anything or anyone provoke YOUR thoughts

Do not be manipulated – they frame people and events as

Good or bad, smart or stupid, brave or cowardly. It is important to be aware of efforts to

be aware of efforts to embed black-and-white judgment into our behavior because most activities and events in life are too complex to be reduced to the level of an “either-or” judgment.
