Anita Moorjani's Cancer Treatment Options Advice

I am thrilled to announce that over the next few weeks, I will be sharing the insights and wisdom of Anita Moorjani, cancer thriver, author, speaker and enlightened, joyful being!  I interviewed Anita about a year ago and have been accumulating some of your questions for her.  I think you will find her answers very inspiring and sometimes bold and daring.  After her neath-death experience she was told to go back and live fearlessly so I would expect nothing less from her!  

My interview lasted almost 30 minutes but I am going to share answers one by one so the videos are short and sweet!  Today's question is:

Given the wide range of choices available to cancer patients today, both in terms of traditional (or allopathic) medicine as well as complementary therapies, what advice does she have as to how to choose the best treatments for the individual?

Please listen now and share your comments, concerns or ideas below or my Facebook page. 

Until next time, be and love your true and wonderful self!
Jackie

Opening up to Guidance

Last week I talked about steps to help you move towards more enlightened living. Today I want to embellish on the steps, add a supporting belief about guidance and once again, invite you to use the steps when you face your next challenging situation.

1) Identify and name the struggle. Go as deep as you can, ask yourself; is this really the struggle or issue or is there something else underneath?  If you don’t feel some emotion around naming the struggle you likely haven’t pin pointed it. Ask yourself; what am I really afraid of regarding the situation?

2) Accept the struggle completely, without judgment – keeping in mind that it may turn out to be a blessing. This does not mean you give up and not try to change things, it simply means that any resistance to the present situation (to what is) is relinquished. Resistance (by way of anger, worry, fear etc.) tenses up the body and reduces the flow of energy and guidance in your life. 

3) Develop a sense of curiosity and openness to learn. Ask yourself some questions; why is this happening to me now?  Has it happened to me in the past? Is the same lesson being repeated in a different context? What am I meant to learn from this situation? 

4) Expect, and be ready to act on, guidance.  As you let go of all resistance and anger you will shift to a place of greater peace, openness and receptivity. Know that from this place you can attract the help you need to move through the situation and learn what you are meant to learn.

The notion of guidance leads me to a secondary or supporting belief. I believe that for every challenging situation you face, you are also offered guidance in some form. If you can find that place of peace, acceptance and openness from which guidance enters your life then you will be able to receive what you need to meet the challenge.  Look for the guidance through co-incidences, chance meetings, messages that keep repeating themselves, opportunities that appear out of nowhere.

If you have felt guidance through difficult times in your life or have used my 4-step process and feel like sharing your comments please leave a comment below. 

Until next time, be and love your true and wonderful self!

Steps to Enlightened Living

For the past few weeks I have been talking about one powerful, life-changing belief. Once again, the belief is that your soul and the Universe (or God, Buddha, Mohamed, Source) are always working together to bring you what you need to live a more purposeful, abundant, joyful and fulfilling life – in short, leading you to your purpose. Sometimes that includes facing very difficult situations. Dr. Wayne Dyer claims that a fall or a low point in his life preceded all his big spiritual advances. In fact his life has been full of challenges from being abandoned as a child, to alcoholism and cancer. All these circumstances, and what he was able to learn and how he evolved as a result of them, have made him one of the greatest spiritual teachers of our time. Here is a quote from The Course in Miracles that helps support my life-changing belief:
