The energy of peace and manifestation

Manifestation is the process of manipulating energy in such a way that we first create and surround ourselves in the vibration what we want and then allow the universe to bring the physical manifestation of that vibration to us. That’s why visualization is such a powerful tool.  Visualization allows us to see what we want--the clearer we see it, feel it, sense it, the stronger the vibration we create.  That created vibration then has the ability to draw that which we desire to us in a very real way.

Visualization works best when it’s directed solely at oneself. In other words, a visualization board made to achieve a promotion or new home is inevitably more likely to come to pass than one made for world peace, or even for a healthy relationship--things integrally that require others.

The point is that our personal energy is powerful, but it only works from the inside out.  

Let’s use the above example: manifesting a healthy relationship.  We all know this begins on the inside, but we also know it takes two and that we cannot change the thoughts or actions of others. So, how to manifest a healthy relationship?  By manifesting the qualities we seek in others within ourselves.  Then we become the energetic puzzle pieces, allowing those we love to fit into the space we’ve created.  Sometimes our loved one never morphs to fit and, instead, may fall away… In the end, we are happier because while we didn't get that relationship, we changed ourselves into the person we hoped to see. In doing so, we offer the opportunity for the right fit to make his or her way into our lives--whether that fit is the person we were with, or someone else.

Peace works the same way.  It does!  In a home full of bickering and spite, family members generally wish that the others in the household would change their behavior.  We can't change others' behavior, however.  But what can we do to create peace within ourselves first, even amongst the bickering?  Perhaps the issue did not come from inside us, but in changing the way we perceive or react to it, we offer those around us to change the action.

It’s a ripple effect.  It starts out small, and expands to all those it touches.

The same works on a larger scale--whether in an office setting, or world-wide.  When we improve ourselves, and are true to ourselves, to our needs and our desires, things begin to fit into place.  

I have not been in an office setting in a long time.  But now, as a full-time mom, I see how much energy my own little family unit generates.  I see how my mood affects my children, and it causes me to recall how much the mood of any one person in the small offices I worked in affected the others.  On a good day we do great things, even if it doesn’t seem as if we were being productive (and the same was true in the office)!  When one person has a bad day, on the other hand, the structure crumbles and much less gets done.

If you can understand and believe this, then imagine if we all looked inward and allowed ourselves to be true to ourselves in all situations, if we gave ourselves permission to do what we desire and need, however difficult that permission might be, then that vibration, that buoyant energy, would radiate out.  It would encourage others to do the same. It could be powerful enough to manifest change not only to human energy patterns, but nature’s patterns as well.

In other words, it would start a ripple effect that would change the world.

Meditation made easy

Sometimes meditation is hard, but this little moving meditation is so simple that I've taught it to my girls who are 4 and 7. It's something I hope that we can all come back to when life seems overwhelming.

It's a great way to recenter, and focus.  It's a way to find your spirituality, and to meditate without struggling to remove your thoughts from your mind.  The simple act of walking slowly while bringing your hands to your heart or your face allows you to feel your thoughts without judgement.

Even if you only have a few moments, check out the beginning of the video to get the gist of it.  Listening further will take you deeper into how this helps quiet the mind and bring peace that can be accessed at any moment of the day.

<3 What a gem! <3Quite possibly the most simple and effective spiritual exercise ever.

Checking in on my New Year's "Un-Resolution"

My "Un-Resolution":  I Didn't Improve One Damn Thing.

As the month comes to a close, I'm wondering how many of you kept your New Year's Resolutions. Maybe some are still at it. Maybe some lasted a week, and then your life got busy. Maybe, you were like me, and it was just another day and you are good enough the way you are and you are just going to "keep on, keeping on".

Whatever the case may be. Good for you. Day-to-day living can be stressful.

I feel like most days, if I didn't scream in my head at least fifty times some swear word, it wasn't that bad of a day. I just keep taking one day at a time, try to be positive, handle problems when they come, as best as i can, enjoy the fun moments and let go. I can't do everything, I can't be everywhere, not everything is my problem. I'm doing what I can. Some days it's my best, somedays you are getting what I can give.

It really does come down to: expectations. I am enough.

I can expect things to be different or better or "my way"...  but it gets me nowhere. You are enough, the way you are. No expectations. It's a wonderful thing if you don't have any and you just go with the flow.

Danielle's note:

Here at Mind Key we believe that our bodies and hearts know what's best.  Maybe that's doing nothing right now.  That's what I'm doing.  Because I need a rest, and like the plants hiding under the snow, without rest I won't be able to bloom when the time is right.

Visit us at www.mindkey.me/signup to get more information on how you can follow your path and your dream... in the most peaceful and perfect way for you.

Surviving the most wonderful time of the year

Peace, joy, happiness…

All words that we use to define the holiday season.

But how many of us actually feel these deep emotions during what is supposed to be the most wonderful time of the year?

Instead, we suffer through the holiday hustle and bustle.  The next trip to the store. The next gift we can't really afford. The next party we don't have the energy to enjoy…. And on and on and on it goes.  We promise ourselves this year it will be different.  This year we will sit and enjoy the holidays.  This year we will spend more time with our family and less ticking off our endless to-do lists.

Sometimes it works.  Usually not for long stretches, but in those blissful moments when our children get tangled in lights, or the dog eats a strand of tinsel.  When we get that unexpected or homemade gift that warms our heart, or when we see an old friend in town. 

They're so fleeting, those moments.  Especially when the holidays offer a different connotation—one of sadness at the loss of a loved one, or the weight of celebrating alone.

Whether the holidays represent stress, a tight budget, loss of time, loss of sanity, or immense sadness or loneliness… there's still hope…. Even if it's only in a meager collection of bright moments we can cherish among the rest.

I can't promise you that this year will be better… but I can promise you that you can see it differently.  With more love and joy and peace.  With more of the holiday cheer we all strive for.

Mind Key is here to help.  We're offering ideas and advice for honoring the most important person in your life this season—yourself.  Because when you are balanced and whole everyone around feels inspired, more at ease, and happier and healthier, too.

Continue reading all month long for words of inspiration and wisdom, ideas for destressing, decluttering, and connecting in the moment.  For great gift ideas meant to share the gift of inspiration, connection and healing, and discounts that make them budget friendly.

If you are reading and thinking "this is SO not me…" we want to hear from you, too!  What keeps you uplifted as the year draws to a close?  How do you bring the magic back in each moment?
