Are you looking to connect with your soul in a deeper and more meaningful way? Me too!

I’ve become acutely aware, as this year progresses, of just how easy it is to let the demands of the day and the hustle and bustle of the life drive what I do. I realized that life was driving me, rather than me driving my life. This realization caused me to recognize the need to have something that would serve as a reminder to live my days differently than I am. So, I turned to my guides and asked for their help. And, help they did. They offered that since 2013 is The Year of the Soul, I needed to create a bracelet like the one I wore when I was going through the Self-Mastery Training as a student in the ancient Egyptian Twelve Gate Mystery School.

Not only did their message surprise me, it sent me back to a time where I could remember the bracelet. It was a half and half design. One half contained beautiful colorful beads and the other half contained 13 amulets or charms. I remembered how this bracelet would let other people know where I was in my stage of Self-Mastery, and how it would create a soulful connection with other people. I remembered how the 13 amulets would serve as protectors, warding off misfortune and harm. I remembered how I felt when wearing the bracelet, and how it deepened my connection with my soul. And, I remembered how it reminded me that I’m never alone and that I’m always loved.

I present to you, the Soul-Full Connection Bracelet™ that I designed and created just as it was long ago, and that’s now available for purchase.  My desire in creating this bracelet is two-fold. First, I hope when you wear your bracelet you’ll feel that deep connection with your soul and you’ll remember that you’re never alone and that you are deeply loved. My second desire is to create an energetic web of love, healing energy, and peace―one person―one bracelet at a time. To help create this, each time a bracelet is purchased; one dollar will be donated to http://feedingamerica.org.

Please browse the collection of bracelets and the 18 different colors offered. If you find a bracelet that speaks to you, or if you would like to gift someone with one, and deepen your soulful connection with them, you can purchase the bracelet by clicking on your color choice.

If you would like to hear the complete story behind the creation of the Soul-Full Connection Bracelet™ and find out the symbolic messages of each of the 13 amulets, click on the audio description available on each of the bracelet product/purchase pages.

Thank you for being a part of my life and for being supportive of my work. Please know that your soul and mine are connected and that I love you, the universe loves you, and that you are a part of my soul community.

Light & Love,

The question around how personality affects health is hardly new. However, what is new is the discovery of how personality determines why we become ill and why we we’re more susceptible to succumbing to specific illnesses. This discovery has renewed interest in understanding the personality, the illness-healing connection, and how personality behavioral modification can be used as a preventive measure against illness. Tune-in and learn how it’s your personality neurological hardwiring that determines the state of your physical health.

This Week’s Topic: The Epidemic of Chronic Pain
Chronic pain is one of the most pervasive health problems in the United States, with more than 116 million Americans suffering from its physical and psychological impact. And, while this statistic is startling, what’s even more startling is that the treatment of chronic pain hasn’t moved beyond pain management to the treating of the psychological implications associated with it—implications such as hopelessness, helplessness, loneliness, emotional stress, mental stress, feeling unsupported, and the repression of emotions. Join me as I share the hidden psychological meaning behind chronic pain, and offer ways that you can train your brain to ease your pain.

Understanding and Healing Pain
It’s not the WHAT that hurts. It’s the WHY it hurts.

When we think about pain, most of us think, "I don’t like it, I try to avoid it, and I don’t want to live with it." Yet pain actually serves many valuable purposes. To begin, it’s the body’s natural protective response when it gets hurt, and it’s a primitive part of our ability to survive. It’s our internal cop that tells us what we shouldn’t be doing, it tells us we’ve overdone it, it teaches us to avoid danger, and it tells us when we need to hunker down to give the body the time it needs to heal. Pain is also an integral part of the body/mind connection and serves as a highly-developed communication process that instantaneously alerts the brain when there’s a problem in the body. It not only identifies where the problem is, it reveals how severe the problem is, and depending on the degree of pain, it instructs the brain on how it should respond, meaning if it needs to seek immediate medical attention or if it’s something that can take a wait-and-see approach. Pain is also a barometer of our mental and emotional state. It lets us know when we’re stressed and how we’re coping with the challenges of life.

However, even understanding that pain serves a valuable purpose provides no consolation when we’re in the throes of it. When we’re in pain, all we know is that we hurt and that we want to the hurt to go away, and go away now. So, if that’s what we desire and it’s what we’re telling the brain to do, then why doesn’t the brain turn the pain messages off immediately?

The answer lies within the pain messages themselves. If the messages are acute, meaning they’re triggered by an injury or by a surgery, they’re actually easier to shut down. On the other hand, if the messages are chronic, meaning that pain has gone rogue, then turning those messages off is much more difficult. Rogue pain refers to pain messages that bombard the brain with false alarms. These false alarms, over the course of time, cause the brain to shift it’s perception of pain from being situational to being chronic, which causes the brain to adapt to the pain and accept it as being normal. Now, rather than pain saving our lives, it wrecks havoc with them, and rather than it helping us get well and staying safe, pain becomes an illness in itself – an illness that affects more than 76 million American who live with chronic pain every day.

What you’ll learn in the Understanding & Healing Pain course:

• Why it’s not the What that hurts, but it’s the Why it hurts because the Whys are what keeps the body in an unhealthy pain cycle. 
• How to uncover the neurological and psychological roots of pain.
• Why shifting the perception of pain is crucial.
• Why it’s important to work in the present when dealing with pain.
• How body movement retrains the way the brain reads pain messages, therefore, making it possible to control pain without the use of medications.
• How changing your mental state and emotional state can heal the underlying psychological contributors behind pain.
• How to use the brain to create pain interference so pain won’t become chronic.
• New treatments that will effectively treat pain.
