<p>Just take a deep breath. Feel it hitting in the middle of<br />
the chest. Feel as if the whole existence is pouring into<br />
you, into your heart. Do it at least five times – deep<br />
breaths; take it in, fill the heart. Just feel in the heart<br />
centre that existence is pouring in vitality, life.</p>
<p>Now exhale deeply, again from the heart, and feel<br />
you are pouring all that has been given to you back into<br />
existence. Do it many times in the day, but whenever you<br />
do it, do five breaths at once.</p>
<p>That will help you to shift from the head to the heart.<br />
And you will become more and more sensitive, more and<br />
more aware of many things of which you have not been<br />
aware. You will smell more, taste more, touch more, see<br />
more, hear more; everything will become intense. You will<br />
start feeling life really throbbing in you, ready to jump,<br />
ready to flow.</p>
<p>Osho<br />
Excerpted from The Zero Experience.</p>

<p>We all know the phrase &#8220;life isn&#8217;t fair,&#8221; but is it possible we chose our circumstances in order to evolve faster? Here are some interesting thoughts on why &#8220;bad things happen to good people.&#8221;  In upcoming posts, I will continue to explore the idea that we may possibly choose part of destinies before we are born</p>
<p>Souls who choose to be born mentally retarded are special souls who have retained more than a normal amount of their pre-birth memories and who know much more than they are able to express. Such hardships are necessary for soul growth. (Sandra Rogers)</p>
<p>Some souls choose to be born for a short period of time and die as a baby or child. The purpose for this is to teach others important lessons. To love a child who is born less than perfect is an important lesson. (Dr. Frank Oski)</p>
<p>Some parents lose a child tragically in an accident. That child was fulfilling his or her mission. The parent was fulfilling his or her mission also. The parents are in that circumstance to learn a lesson. Maybe the lesson was patience, love, acceptance, understanding, or comfort of others. It can be a number of things. (George Anderson)</p>
<p>Some people decide to be born into favorable conditions and some people decide to be born into unfavorable conditions. The choice has to do with satisfying divine justice and karma. (Edgar </p>

<p>One of my favorite self-improvement bloggers at Jonathan at <a href="http://www.illuminatedmind.net">Illuminated Mind</a>, recently posted some great tips about working for yourself. The first thing he reminded me was this:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.illuminatedmind.net/2010/06/24/self-employment-lessons"><strong>Things can be the way you want – you just have to decide that.</strong></a></p>
<p>He goes on to write: &#8220;This may seem like an overly-simplistic lesson, but it’s probably the most important one that I’ve learned. Doing what you want and having your business and life be exactly the way you want it is possible. It just takes continual and deliberate direction.</p>
<p>When you stop deciding that things be a certain way, they tend to drift toward not being the way you want them to be, or it’s a roll of the dice.</p>
<p>The cool thing about deliberately choosing the way you want your business to be is that you get better at it over time. The way you feel guides you toward doing more of what you want and less of what you don’t want. The best way to move in the direction of what you want is to allow the way you feel to guide you.&#8221;</p>
