Who is at the party in YOUR house?

Who is at the party in YOUR house?

What? I’m not having a party you say.

Oh, yes you are.

It’s a non-stop party and you DID invite the guests!

Now, this isn’t the wild kind of party that teenagers throw when parents leave town, but then again, it’s very similar. It gets out of hand really fast.

who-is-at-the-party-in-your-house-naked-hippies-roadtrip.1 — Where did all these “guests” come from?

This party is taking place in the “living room” of your mind.

It’s a non-stop party and you are the host.

You invited ALL the guests.

The guests?

Well, they are the ones you invite in with your thoughts and feelings. Because here’s the thing … every thought you have and give attention to sends out an invitation to come, take a seat, kick your shoes off … and create your reality.

You’re either inviting negative or positive guests.

And, as soon as a guest gets its foot in the door, the word goes out that there’s a party going on … and more of the same type of guests start showing up and partying like its 1999.

It’s the law of attraction simplified in a way that maybe you can understand a little better.

It’s also quantum physics, the most reliable and accurate science – the second scientific revolution that is replacing the Newtonian paradigm.

As quantum physicists, neuroscientists and biologists have discovered, every thought creates a feeling, which creates a neuropeptide that feeds your cells.

Your cells develop receptacles to receive these neuropeptides and soon become addicted and crave more of the same … so you feed their addiction with more negative or positive thoughts … and

well, your what shows up in your reality is created by this whole biological, physiological, and neurological process through the Law of Attraction.

As Dr. Candace Pert explains in her book, Molecules of Emotion,

neurotransmitters called peptides carry emotional messages. “As our feelings change, this mixture of peptides travels throughout your body and your brain. And they’re literally changing the chemistry of every cell in your body.”

[read more about Dr. Pert’s discovery here.]

I’m not a scientist, I am an ardent student of quantum physics and much of what I have learned have come from Dr. Joe Dispenza:

So, back to the party.

IF the party is out of control and you have guest who you now have begun to recognize as unwanted doubt, fear, worry, anger, jealousy, bitterness, regret, anxiety, worthlessness, despair … they need to be booted out and the clean up of your “living room” started.

How?

STOP INVITING THEM TO THE PARTY!

As I said before, every thought is a knock at the door and if you’re not paying attention, it will get its foot in the door, take a seat, grab a slice of pizza and start texting all its friends to come join the fun.

So, you’re main focus is FOCUS. Be aware. Stay on alert of those thoughts that you have that don’t serve your higher purpose – that don’t lead to your well-being.

When it shows up, SHUT THE DOOR. Tell it “you’re not welcome here any more.”

And then, send out an invite to the thought/feeling you do want.

Over and over again, consistently do this.

A negative thought comes in, you recognize it and realize that if it gets its foot in the door, there’s going to be trouble.

If it’s the negative thought of “I don’t have enough money” then you have to shut the door of that thought and bring in a new one.

Here is where many people get stuck.

They believe that repeating affirmations all day long will keep the negative thoughts away from the party.

That’s not how it works. Affirmations are just words. And if you’re in the habit of telling yourself “I am a millionaire,” your subconscious, aka, the bouncer at your party, says “no you’re not – remember that overdue bill that is laying on your kitchen table?” because your beliefs don’t match the affirmations you keep repeating. [read more here]

The feelings that come up from every experience you have are serving as information that there is a disconnect between what you believe and what you desire.

Your feelings are information only – they don’t define who you are.
Whew! Isn’t that a relief!

Greg Kuhn, author of “Why Quantum Physicists Play Grow a Greater You” explains:

When I have those bad feelings, I simply acknowledge and validate them. They are temporary; they are not my state of being and do not reflect my new, true beliefs about myself. They also no longer frighten me because I know they are not my beliefs unless I choose to make them so by repeating and believing them.

You have to gently and every so slightly choose a better feeling than the one you are presently trying to shut the door on.

It’s not a matter of switching from anxiety to joyful bliss. That’s too huge of a gap to be believable.

It’s a matter of telling a better feeling story, not the best feeling story you can about the person, event, thing or experience that has brought the negative thought/feeling.

Telling a better feeling story allows you to be brutally honest about what you’re feeling without stuffing it and smothering it. And choosing to recognize the feeling and then turn it to an every so slightly better feeling story will begin to clear out your “living room.”

It may seem like quite a mess in your living room right now. The party is out of control and you are looking at the destruction and chaos in your life caused by that party.

But it’s still YOUR house and you can stop the madness beginning now.

Your party can turn into one of ease and fun and happiness and joy.

So, who is at the party in your house?

Party on!

What is My Purpose Here?

On June 29, 2015June 5, 2016 By Trisha BarnesIn Personal GrowthLeave a comment

What is my purpose here?

It’s a question that nearly everyone asks at different times in their lives.

For many, the question comes up at mid-life crisis time. They got the college degree; they have been working for twenty some years in a career; their children are leaving home; and suddenly, they realize life is passing by much too quickly now.

What is my purpose here is the question that begins to nag at them as they reflect on their achievements and realize the dreams that used to captivate and motivate them have been put on the back burner.

For others, the question comes up as they seek to change their life but seem to flounder instead of flourishing.

Your purpose here is to live a fulfilling life. A life that you design and create. A life of meaning and value and joy and happiness.

I know that all sounds great and most would agree that ultimately, this is exactly right.

But, here’s where the rub comes. Most people have become so accustomed to living a life designed by others that they have lost the zeal, the imagination, the inspiration to live the life they dream of living.

what-is-my-purpose-here — Do YOU know what you want?

Most people have lived lives of quiet desperation as Thoreau says.

Sadder still are the people who don’t KNOW what they truly want, because they are so programmed and hypnotized by society.

In this video, Vishen Lakhian of Mindvalley, shares three questions for you to answer to help you find what is my purpose here:

Answering these three questions will help you discover what is my purpose here. Answer these without thinking of time or money … let your imagination run wild, let you heart guide you.

1. What experiences do you want to get out of life before you die?

2. How do I want to grow intellectually, behaviorally, emotionally, spiritually, physically?

3. What do I want to contribute to the world … to your family, your friends, your workplace, your city, your society, the world?

Click here to download the worksheet for answering the three questions.

True fulfillment comes from experiences that create opportunities for you to grow and contribute to the lives of others.

Take time to answer these three questions today. It will definitely help you know what is my purpose.

What came up for you as you answered the questions? What surprising idea popped out that you had stuffed away through the years? Share in the comments below.

Let Go of the Past with Quantum Physics

On June 19, 2015June 5, 2016 By Trisha BarnesIn Personal GrowthLeave a comment

Let go of the past with quantum physics

Most people are living their lives on autopilot … thinking, feeling, and doing without being aware of what they are thinking and the chain of events that each thought creates.

Add this to the mix – and it’s no wonder it’s so hard to change your life: everything you think and do hinges on what happened in your life in the past, because that is how you have conditioned your mind for years and years.

Until you let go of the past, your future will be dictated by it.

Your thoughts are the catalysts that fire up your brain to find the neuropathways which have been wired to connect in familiar ways.

And it all happens without you realizing what’s going on in your brain and your body with each thought.

One single, flippant thought stirs up memorized emotions in your brain, so that even though you were thinking only about something like “how to increase you income to end the struggle,” a cascade of memories is fired up by the brain.

Now, the memories of all your emotions about money flood into your cells all at once and you begin to feel even worse as your brain reminds you of the lack, the struggle, the overwhelm, the despair.

We had an experience with mosquitoes the summer we lived in a tent on the banks of the Missouri River that helps illustrate how one single negative thought stirs up a swarm of negative emotions. Those of you who live in environments like this, you know what summer means – you know that the humidity and the water are breeding grounds for those pesky mosquitoes.

We were well aware of our environment and took extra precautions to prevent a feeding frenzy every night.

We lit citronella torches all around the tent, we had repellant to use if we were going to be out watching the sunset, we kept the tent zipped up tight. Our awareness kept us from being covered in itchy bites – well, it kept me from scratching like a dog with fleas – the mosquitoes don’t bite Bruce.

That’s exactly what quantum physics teaches —

awareness of your thoughts is the key to changing everything.

But, like I said, most people are operating on autopilot and have not let go of the past. They are completely unaware of the power of one thought.

Allowing that one thought to take hold opens the door to an avalanche of feelings, of memories, of repeated scenarios that keep you stuck right where we wish you weren’t.

So, back to that night in the tent. We’d been doing really well with our awareness of making sure we were on top of all our mosquito prevention methods … until that one night. We were getting ready to turn out the light and go to sleep when Bruce noticed a half empty coke can sitting nearby which needed to be poured out or we would have ants and who knows what else crawling in from everywhere, feeding on that sweet sticky syrup. So, he jumped up, grabbed the coke can, unzipped the tent, and stepped outside quickly to pour out the contents.

In a matter of a few seconds, an army of mosquitoes swarmed into the tent! I had never seen so many! Hundreds of ‘em! All because he forgot to be aware, just for a split second.

That’s exactly what happens when you don’t pay attention, when you operate on autopilot, when you are not aware of the thoughts you have … you unzip the mind to unleash all those memorized emotions that flood in. An avalanche of feeling discouraged, unworthy, less than, etc. pours forth. The feeding frenzy has begun.

How did we battle the mosquitoes? We didn’t have any spray to attack them and we had no place else to go to sleep – this was our home. We couldn’t flee. We only had our hands so we spent the next couple of hours clapping our hands endlessly to kill as many as we could with each clap … and our hands became covered in blood as we battled.

Isn’t it interesting that most of the time, you automatically respond to the flood of emotions that come in when you have a negative thought that makes you then begin feeling worse, by trying to flee?

You try to soothe those upsetting emotions with any kind of distraction by fleeing to something that will ease the discomfort, relieve the stress – alcohol, drugs, TV, eating, and even shopping becomes an escape.

You try to let go of the past by covering it up with a bandaid of
good feeling or mind numbing experiences.

Fleeing doesn’t really solve the issue. It is a temporary fix and those emotions and feelings will be back as soon as another negative thought pops in your mind. They’ll continue to swarm back in until you decide to do battle.

And yes, it might feel like you’re in a bloody battle as you work to change your thoughts and your beliefs because it’s not a matter of a quick flip of the switch to change patterns that have worn deep grooves and strong circuits in your brain’s wiring.

But, it’s a battle you can win.

You can form new neural pathways in your brain to let go of the past by rewiring those old circuits. You can create a new you because of neuroplasticity: the brain’s ability to reorganize itself by forming new neural connections throughout life. Neuroplasticity allows the neurons (nerve cells) in the brain to adjust their activities in response to new situations or to changes in their environment.

This is why studying books about quantum physics like “Grow a Greater You” by Greg Kuhn and “Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself” by Dr. Joe Dispenza is vital to gaining knowledge and understanding of what is really going on inside your head.

For most of your life, you’ve tried to grab a can of spray (as in repeating affirmations) to eliminate what you didn’t want; you’ve stuffed your emotions away instead of receiving them as information to help you change; you’ve pleaded as you’ve prayed.

The answer has always been there, the solution has always been available, the secret has been revealed by the masters for hundreds of years:

the power you seek, the change you seek, the person you desire to be is within you.

Now, with the revelation of the new paradigm of quantum physics and the works of authors like Greg Kuhn, Dr. Joe Dispenza, Pam Grout, and Bruce Lipton, the final pieces of the grand masterpiece puzzle of creating all that you desire in life have been handed to you.

When Jesus said, “All these things I do, you can do and even greater things,” he was teaching quantum physics. It just wasn’t in the words science uses today to explain how the Universe works.

You are a magnificent being with the potential to be, do and have all that you desire.

May your journey be guided by increased knowledge of your inner power that can be unleashed at will as you grow in your understanding of who you are, why you are here and what unlimited possibilities await your command.

These books will be of great help as you continue on your journey to magnificence, as you take on the work to let go of your past.

How to Let Go of the Past and Live in the Present Moment

On June 17, 2015June 6, 2016 By Trisha BarnesIn Personal GrowthLeave a comment

How to let go of the past and live in the present moment.

It’s the crux of all counseling, the antidote for all suffering, and the conditioning of our minds … the past.

So, the #1 question, “how to let go of the past and live in the present moment?” is definitely worth answering … but I have to tell you that it’s not a simple “flip of the switch” with positive thinking that you might have been taught.

You see, even when you decide to “make a break from the past” and decide to be happy and joyful, or you decide to lose weight, quit smoking, start your own business, and you start thinking positive thoughts, the negative ones are still hanging around like a stray cat (you know, when you feed a cat once, it is yours forever!)

Whatever change your decide to make – your mind and body create chaos.

It’s like your decision to change is suddenly attacked from all sides by endless chatter – reminders of all the reasons you shouldn’t be happy, successful, thin, etc. (totally based on past feelings, emotions, and experiences.)

It’s a tough battle to fight, but you can win it.

“5% of the mind is conscious, struggling against the 95 percent that is running the subconscious automatic programs. We’ve memorized a set of behaviors so well that we have become an automatic, habitual body-mind. In fact, when the body has memorized a thought, action, or feeling to the extent that the body is the mind- when mind and body are one – we are (in a state of) being the memory of ourselves.” – Dr. Joe Dispenza

First, you must understand how your body and mind have become conditioned to operate from past memories which explains why every change that you attempt will be stomped on and ridiculed by an endless stream of thoughts from your subconscious mind.

It might be hard for you
to comprehend this, but
you are not awake.

You are operating on autopilot. Oh, I know it doesn’t make sense because your eyes are open, you are moving about today, getting things done and not laying in bed snoring like a bear in hibernation.

Here’s what has happened to your mind and body over the past ten, twenty, thirty or more years:

You experienced something that caused a certain feeling like anger, jealously, doubt, fear, worthlessness, embarrassment, and so on.

That feeling sent signals to your brain that caused a chemical reaction which was delivered to your cells; so, now your cells are swimming in a sea of anger, jealousy, doubt, fear, and other negative chemicals.

Your cells have receptors that take in and process these chemicals, and they become addicted. In time, they require a stronger “fix” which is only satisfied by a stronger negative emotion.

When you decide to make a change in your life, to be happy or to do something different than you’ve ever done before, your cells start feeling the pains of withdrawal, so the hypothalamus signals the brain to start thinking “the old way.”

And that’s when those thoughts start their chatter and reminder that you have always been this way and it’s not worth it, it’s too much work, it can wait.

how-to-let-go-of-the-past-and-live-in-the-present-moment — You are a magnificent being here to experience a magnificent life!

This is why it’s so vital to your well being to learn how to let go of the past and live in the present moment.

It requires stillness, it requires study, it requires letting go, but most of all it requires accessing and connecting to the power you have within you to overcome time.

Through the recent study of “Grow a Greater You” by Greg Kuhn and “Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself” by Dr. Joe Dispenza, I am learning more about the amazing power each one of us has within to change our limiting beliefs and create the life that we desire.

I invite you to join the on-going study, the journey, the exploration, the discovery of how to let go of the past and live in the moment on the Journey to Magnificence mindset call.

The transformations and breakthroughs being experienced by those who participate and contribute to our discussions have been awe-inspiring.

addiction is in every life

Addiction is in Every Life

On June 15, 2015June 6, 2016 By Trisha BarnesIn Personal GrowthLeave a comment

Addiction is in every life, in one form or another.

Now, our perception of addiction immediately causes thoughts of the addition to drugs, alcohol, cigarettes which we have experienced either personally or through a close friend or family member.

But, not every addiction is a physical one in terms of needing a substance for a “fix.”

In the book “Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself,” by Dr. Joe Dispenza, we learn that every cell in our body becomes addicted to the chemical reactions caused by our emotions.

Emotions such as anger, blame, guilt, resentment, jealousy, blame, judgment, sadness, and worthlessness create chemicals that feed your cells, which in turn makes your body feel that exact emotion,

which in turn, creates more thoughts about the guilt or blame or whatever negative emotion you are feeling …

and the cycle continues in a downward spiral that creates a reality exactly matched to how you are feeling.

Soon, your cells need a stronger “fix” just as a drug addict soon turns to a stronger drug to get a higher high.

What’s an emotional addict to do? There is hope, there is a way to break these addictions. Download the MP3 from the Journey to Magnificence mindset call to begin “rehab.”

Do you see the endless cycle that is created by your emotions?

This explains why it’s so difficult to change your life. Even when you are inspired and motivated and determined to change.

Your cells are addicted and any change in your emotions makes them go through withdrawal just as a drug addict does. It’s not pleasant.

Is there any hope? Is it possible to break this addiction?

Indeed it is. It requires rewiring, reprogramming, re-membering your brain.

The Journey to Magnificence mindset call is a study group, a mastermind group of people who believe they are destined for a greater life.

We gather to read, study, discuss and receive wisdom and knowledge concerning our personal development and to develop the skills and power to manifest all that we desire.

If you have been thinking positive thoughts, visualizing your desires and dreams for years, studying personal development, repeating affirmations … all without seeing those BIG desires manifest in your life … this calls for you.

It’s not you, it’s your wiring, your programming and your mind and body not cooperating. Come join the journey!

See you on the call!
