Heart Rising Jim Self

I found the following article today, or rather it found me. I had to attach the picture of the door the same as on the site it was so symbolic to me. Here is the link to the site heartrising.com 

"The archangels said 'There is a path that has never, ever been followed before. We believe that we can create a doorway that would allow third dimensional mass consciousness to wake up and step into a fifth dimensional full consciousness.  Would you like to play with us?"  

Often described as a teacher's teacher and healer's healer, Jim Self has been leading seminars and teaching healing, clairvoyance and personal energy management courses for over 30 years.  A former vice-mayor of San Jose, California and advisor to US President Jimmy Carter, Jim is a down-to-earth spiritual master who has devoted his life to higher principles while walking with both feet planted firmly on the ground.  He is an international speaker, author and the founder of Mastering Alchemy.

Self transformation is the focus of Jim's website www.masteringalchemy.com. Together, Jim and his partner Roxane offer practical tools designed to empower and awaken those who seek. Motivated by compassion rather than profit, there are numerous articles, audio files, video files and webinars which are free of charge and readily available to anyone. In all of what is offered, there are only three very special programs which require tuition to keep them going, and Jim and Roxane do everything they can to keep the cost as low as possible. This approach is not only refreshing, but serves as an example of how selfless service can thrive in balance even in an economic climate which is vastly out of balance. 

Please listen to Jim as he shares his extraordinary personal story and his deep insights into human nature and what is currently unfolding in our world, by clicking on the enclosure below...

Ponder Wander...

First of all i love the word ponder... 

I feel as though i have been Pondering alot over the last few weeks, and i guess all this pondering has in a strange way led to a transformation of my thoughts. Over the past 3-4 months at times i have felt so overwhelmed and confused and desperate for signs and answers for so many things that i only tired myself more , i have overpondered so to say.

Then something strange happened i somehow arrived in a place where i have never been, i had started to loosen the intense grip i had on all these ponderings...several weeks alone can give you alot of clarity. For me the message was to stop standstill..breathe and be in the moment. I am not sure if i am making any sense ? but suddenly the pondering led to answers or perhaps the closure of subjects and issues. I feel that somehow i am very different that i am not the person that i was 4 months ago...i am making conscious choices that are entirely true to myself without the concerns i had before. 

If anyone reading this doesnt know me well i am an empath, a fixer, a mediator a go between, i have many aquaintances but a handful of dear friends, my effort to continually help and nuture others allowed me to think that i an completely open but infact it is the opposite i am closed hidden constantly by the worries and strains or difficulties of others. Most of these people strangers that i take under my wing. I believe this was who i was ment to be as i chose that for myelf. My senstivity to other peoples feelings energies always leaves me wanting to help them feel more at home in the world..i cant think of a better way to explain it. 

But something has changed not i a selfish way but in a way that will help me to be truer to myself and open myself , i cant do this hiding behind the energies of others..constantly reaching for connections , i have  to find my own shadow.

Sweet Dreams xx

She's Alive... Beautiful... Finite... Hurting... Worth Dying for....

Kindergarten 100

This is my 100th blog post hence the 100 reference. 

I didnt even mention it before because i think i was thinking somehow it would never happen. Ceyda has started Kindergarten...i cant even blog about it as i feel such guilt. Her Turkish is so far behind  (especially after being away so much )that really she has to start a Turkish Kindergarten now... but its sooo hard yesterday wasnt so bad but today the tears as i dropped her off and then the tears when i picked her up. Tonight after her story she asked if she was going again tomorrow and i said yes the tears then followed..after kisses and chatting about school she told me " its boring at school" " i miss my friend Emma Aiden and Louis " and the hardest of all that she is worried that i am alone. Emma lives 1 hr from us Louis lives  in Scotland and Aiden is about to move back to the states. Oh i hope she makes a nice new friend she loves to hold hands and is used to being very close with other kids. Man this mummy stuff is hard i love having her a home with me we bake do art projects go on long walks see friends but we dont speak Turkish. 

She will go 4 full days a week to start Tues through Fri 9.30 till 4.30 ( although i can also pick her up after lunch) While she is a school her teachers say she is fine even ventured a few words in Turkish after 2 days...her teacher thinks a longer day is better as it will speed up her language learning and allow her to bond with the other kids who are all full time ( 5 days a week )9-6. Oh my heart is breaking and i do miss her, and what did is do the i last 2 days manic cleaning... coffee and rather depressing to admit short converastions with my dog..

Ceyda on her first day
