Welcoming The New Year

There is a lot we expect from ourselves in a new year. How about instead of expectations or demands, you shift your focus to excitement and anticipation. Here are some intentions you can plant in your heart to open up to what the new year is able to bring to you:

  • I am open to all that the new year will bring into my life including all the waves I’ll need to ride. My life is a bountiful journey full of feelings, sensations, experiences and I take great joy in being with what is.
  • My life is a continuous flow. I don’t end or begin. With each breath, I am here. With each breath, I am taking things one step at a time.
  • Starting new things that ignite my soul comes easily to me. I dwell in the joy of possibility. I am constantly inviting new ways of being, becoming and creating into my life. Life flows through me as it delights, excites and enlightens me.
  • Becoming hopeful is worth it. Creating beauty and kindness is worth it. Being in love is worth it. This life thing, no matter what, is worth it.
  • I am wholeheartedly nonattached to what happens next as long as I keep staying open to all the things that bring light to my heart and soul. With an unwavering dedication to my light, I inspire others to light up and be brighter than they thought they could be.

Wishing you a beautiful, new, delightful, crisp, exciting, fun, laughter-filled, ecstatic year.

With love and light,

Damla

Here and Now

Here and now is your only chance to be alive. This particular moment, this particular breath. All it takes is fiercely loving it with your eyes open. Embracing its every single molecule, sound, sight, smell, sensation, and emotion. Opening yourself up to it, and then doing the same again and again.

Here and now is an invitation. You get to choose how you live it. You get to choose every single time, every single moment.

Here and now gets you closer to all life. When you embrace your ‘now’, you are embracing all there is, with compassion.

Let’s be here, right now. If you have trouble being here and staying present, reach out to me and let’s figure out together what energetic wounds might be between you and unconditional pure presence.

With love and light,

Damla

 

Belinda Farrell – Following Your Impulses And Your Joy

In this Conversations With Healers episode, my guest is Belinda Farrell, energy healer, author, Huna teacher, Ho’oponopono practitioner, hypnotherapist, stunt car driver, wild dolphin swim guide and fire walker. It was an absolute pleasure to talk to Belinda and hear all about her extraordinary life experiences from deciding to be a stunt car driver to having an impulse to learn to swim so that she could swim with the dolphins. She had a lot to say about following your gut instinct and taking the leap into the unknown. We also talked about:

  • Belinda’s extraordinary story of how she healed her spinal injuries by using ancient Hawaiian chants and rituals of forgiveness,
  • the need for clearing the cords that weigh us down and don’t allow us to be fully ourselves,
  • taking responsibility for all that you are and all that you are experiencing,
  • listening to and trusting inner guidance, as well as following it with all your being,
  • how her first job as Snow White at Disneyland was the perfect metaphor for her spiritual awakening journey through the seven chakras,
  • and your ability to awaken your inner healer with four simple phrases ‘I am sorry. Please forgive me. Thank you. I love you.”

My favorite healing nugget from Belinda is “(Self-healers and healers) I just love you. I admire anybody who takes it upon themselves to do healing, to make themselves and their lives better. I just think it is such a worthy endeavor to do that. And it is not easy, it’s really not easy but it’s so worth it in the end. If I can help in any way just to give you the confidence to know that everything works out for the best. Even if you made a choice and you think that it is bad, you always have another choice. So there are no bad choices because you always learn from whatever you’ve done. Hallelujah and keep moving forward!”

You can find out more about Belinda and her work at her website http://www.hunahealing.com. Belinda currently offers Huna Trainings and Reconnection healing sessions in her home in Santa Cruz, CA. Her Hawaiian Healing Chant CDs, as well as her book Find Your Friggin’ Joy is available for purchase at her website.
