Something You Can Do When You're Feeling Anxious or Bored
Here's something you can do when you're feeling anxious or bored: Assuming you're not driving a car or operating heavy machinery, close your eyes, and with your eyes closes turn your eyes to look upward and over the left eye. Then take three deep slow breaths. Recognize that you are connecting with your higher Self, the Source of Universal Knowledge. Let the feelings you get from this connection wash over you like a peaceful warm shower of Love. Listen for any messages you may receive or watch for images. You may receive suggestions of what to do. Also, you may ask a questions and listen for an answer. Stay in this state for as long as you desire, breathing deeply and easily. Thank yourself and the Universal Source for the experience before you end the session. Then take action immediately on any insights you received, either by writing them down or doing what you are inspired to do.

Unleash the Power of Your Mind
Beneath the surface of your day to day, minute by minute conscious thoughts is a sea of consciousness of infinite intelligence. It exists within you, always there for you if you can turn down the echos of the past and concerns of the future that constantly stream through your head while you're awake.
In your waking state, your mind spends most of its time generating brainwaves at 12 -30 electrical cycles per second, known as the beta state. The activity is a continuous noise level of ideas, impressions, inputs from others, and thoughts in your head that repeat and repeat and repeat. This noise keeps you going through your day but also drowns out the richness of information in your subconscious stream.
Meditation is one method by which you can turn down the volume of the noise in your head and receive information from this higher intelligence stream of consciousness. Meditation is something that some people may find difficult, or believe that to do it "right" means you have to sit in a lotus position in a monastery and practice for many years.
That is not the only way to access this knowledge, fortunately. Many years ago, a man named Jose Silva introduced techniques to help people quickly and easily slow down their brainwaves and quiet their conscious mind. Through the Silva Method, student learn to move from the awake Beta state of mind to the calm and relaxed Alpha state, where their brainwave frequency is around 8-13 cycles per second.
His methods were so successful that thousands of people were able to achieve major improvements in their lives by following his techniques. Not only did they gain access to greater intelligence, they were able to perform what some may consider "miracles"...healing their bodies, communicating with others over a distance, learning new skills instantly, and teaching others how to improve their own lives.
Although Jose Silva is no longer with us, his teachings and programs live on. You can try out some of the methods on your own for free, and if you decide you want to explore further, you can sign up for a home study program.
Check out this link for the free trial program which includes audio downloads. Also on this page you can order the home study program (I have this) to dive in and make positive and lasting changes in your own life.

The Power of Your Words
If you are a student of The Law of Attraction, you may already be watching your thoughts and emotions carefully, since you know that thoughts become things (credit goes to Mike Dooley for that). Do you realize also that every word you speak out loud, write, or say to yourself is a thought that has physical manifestation? The words in your head create chemical and synaptic connections, the words you speak do that and also create physical sound wave vibrations, and the words you write have a physical presence and are transmitted through light waves back to you and anyone else who reads them.
So while your thoughts in your head are very powerful, the audience for words you speak and words you write is larger than just you and they therefore are reflected and reinforced by whoever hears or reads them. Those who read them add their energy to what you say and participate in the manifestation.
Are you watching your words? Do you say things like "I can't", "I don't know how", "I wish I could"...? Or worse, do you use phrases like "I hate it", "I could die", or "They will kill me"? These negative words are working hard to deliver what you say. If you aren't moving toward your goals in life, consider your language and choice of words. If you catch yourself saying things that are negative, stop right away and mentally say the word "CANCEL" and then change around your phrasing. Instead of "I can't" "I wish I could" or "I don't know how to", say, "I'd like to find out how to..." Instead of saying other negative phrases, think of the solution rather than the problem. "They may not like this at first, but..." or "I prefer this rather than that..."
All this may seem nit-picky and trivial to you, but that is because you have learned most of your life that sarcasm and pessimism is a sign of intelligence. In fact, it is a reinforcement of limiting and negative beliefs, even if said in humor.
Take every word your speak seriously. Fill your vocabulary with positive statements and notice the change in your energy. Eliminate the negative phrases and celebrate the power you have to make a difference in your own life NOW.

I Always Feel Like... Somebody's Watching (Over) Me
![]() |
When you quiet your thoughts and get in touch with your inner, deeper mind, through practice, you will find help at every turn.
Call it intuition, universal intelligence, that still, quiet voice from within, or guidance from angels...whatever, but it is the voice that will help you whenever you ask, if you just ask.
When I am fully present in the moment, without worries of the day plaguing my thoughts, I can ask and get answers easily. It seems to work especially well when I am driving my car in fact. As I mentioned in an earlier post, I can ask mentally for the best parking space and then be guided to it if I am open to listen. The guidance comes in the form of an unspoken word or idea that pops into my head at the right time.
For instance today, as I was driving in to park at the Target store, I got an "idea" to turn left toward the lot instead of heading straight like I normally do. I then got the "idea" to skip to the second row of parking spaces. As I headed close to the store I was looking on my right for an opening but an "idea" came into my head to look left. There at the very end of the row, closest to the store, was an open space on the left! Couldn't have found a better spot to park, really.
After shopping, I wanted to mail an envelope, but as I was in a different town I had no idea where a post office or mail box would be. Seems to me that lately there are fewer mailboxes on sidewalks anyway, so I was nearly resigned to heading back to my town and driving way out of my way to a post office I knew. Then a suggestion popped into my head to drive down the street "one more block". I had no idea what I was heading toward, but I followed the suggestion, which also led me to get in the right lane and shortly after I did, there was a mailbox!
Wow, even though this stuff seems to happen a lot these days, I am still excited and amazed when I get an "idea" or suggestion and I take it and it's right. Imagine how much easier our lives would be if we lived every moment like this!
I suggest you experiment as I do, asking for guidance while driving. I do this all the time when I want to find an opening to exit a freeway, and have often used it when I didn't have my GPS with me (I call it my mental GPS). The guidance is actually better than a GPS at times, taking me on the quickest route to my destination in an unfamiliar neighborhood. Of course, having someone else in the car telling you to take different roads can drown out the information coming in, so try it at first when you're alone. The more you practice at receiving guidance, the better you will get at recognizing it and can apply it to all areas of your life.
Just ask and the answer will be given!
