Spiritual Awakening: Getting Stoned

Spiritual Awakening: Getting Stoned

Okay where did your mind go with this title? I am not talking about the use of marijuanna or other substances to alter your thinking, I am talking about the use of stones and crystals to further your journey on your spiritual path. I first kearned about stones and crystals from Sonia Alexandra, who you can find more information about at www.stonehealing.com.  By understanding stones ans chrystals you will be able to heal yourself and thus help to heal others.

One way to use the crystals(gemstones) is to carry them with you in a bag and each day cleanse them so as to increase their powers.

I found the following at www.old-earth.com that will help you in cleansing your stones:

Cleanse and Charge Your Gemstones and Crystals

Crystals and Gemstones Need to be Cleansed As we work with our Gemstones; either to extract electro-magnetic energies to cleanse or introduce them to build support structure; some of the residue remains. Even if someone holds the crystal to simply admire it, a trace of their field lingers. These traces are not “bad” or “evil”, just as dirt is not “bad” or “evil”. However, the energetic impulse traces will affect the stones and, therefore, an accumulation needs to be cleansed away.

Spiritual Awakening: Incense, Insight, and More!!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Incense, Insight, and More

As I was getting ready to write this blog I closed my eyes and inhaled the incense and asked source what I should write about and source answered with this headline. I am alsways amazed how when I burn my incense and close everything else off that answers to my questions appear. When I tell people about the practice of buring incense many of those not on a spiritual path scoff. I take a breathe and intrnally say to myself they don’t know what they are missing. I often will draw a hot bath, light some candles, put on a mediation cd, like the one I have from Sonia Alexandra, burn the incense and clear my mind to get grounded. I also like to do this ritual using a cd my mother gave me of tribual and natural sounds.  I have also found that listening to instrumentals, tribal chants, sounds of nature will asssit with gaining insight thus contiuning on a spirtual path to personal growth and enlightenment.

There have been times when I will go to the big pool at The Sunrise Lakes Phase III Clubhouse and make a small quiet peaceful area for myself with the incense buring while I read books like Ernest Chu’s Soul Currency, Amy Hammond Hagberg’s How Do You Know He is Real, Guy Finley’s The Seeker, The Search, The Sacred, and others that are now in my library for spiritual growth.

Spiritual Awakening: The Signs of Being Awake

Spiritual Awakening: The Signs of  Being Awake

If you look at the 12 symptoms of awakening you realize that we are all evolving on our spiritual path to fufilling the goal of being aware and awake. When you wake in the morning are the first words out of your mouth Thank You GOD? An awakened person acknowledges the creation of another day to make a positive impact on their life and the lives of others. ONe sign of being awake is the shift to a position of gratitude.

 As I began my spiritual awakening I began to become more grateful for the things that I have and the opportunities that are unfolding daily. I keep a gratitude journal and am gratefulto my friend and coach, Coach Shantel Springer, who showed me tools to come from a position of gratitude.

 

 Coach Shantel Springer Helps people to take the first step to becoming awake and that is to assume a position of gratitude mand to give thanks to GOD.

After assuming the position of gratitude and practicing it everyday the next step is to find ways to love yourself so you can love others. When I get up in the morning I say I am a loving caring person who positively impacts my life and the lives of others. I then shower and get dressed and then turn on Janet Lee Kraft’s CD:  I then read The Rev. Dr. Dee Adio-Moses Oneness Consciousness, then I read Mary Morrisey’s The Miracle Minute. When I do this I feel aware and alive and ready to be a shining light to those I come in contact with.

Spiritual Awakening: Motivation Through Music

 The Newsboys song Miracles really sets the tone and exemplifes music as a motivator

Spiritual Awakening: Motivation Through Music

It only taes 45 seconds to change your vibrational energy. One great way to change you vibrational energy and to create a positive force around you is to use music. I have found songs like the one abpve can help to change a sate of mind and alleviate the negative frequencies. The use of music in your daily life as you live in the present moment will help you to create the life you desire. Music is very powerful and influential as it evokes all types of emotions.

Plato believed that music could help you to unleash your greatness by finding the hidden secrets that lie deep in your soul.

 Even The Cookie Monster knows the power of music. Sometime by shutting off the world you find yourself receiving messages that will help you change the world.

Spiritual Awakening: What is Your Calling?

 Spiritual Awakening: What Is Your Calling?

A question I am often asked is JDOGG, How do I find my calling? I answer with by seeing what is bringing you joy in your life and bringing joy to others. In finding your calling their may be challenges like the one I had this month where I took a job at a local bowling center and after 10 days was let go and told that I wasn’t meeting the owners expectations. I took this as a sign that GOD had a better plan for me. After I clocked out and told a few people the phone rang and it was another bowling center seeking a volunteer coach. I took this as God’s way of telling me that I was not meant to be behind the counter of a bowling center handing out shoes, and ringing people up for their bowling, but that I was meant to use my gift and coach and thus create joy for myself and others. Eachtime I have left a job or been asked to leave a job I have realized it is one more brick on the path to finding my calling.

 Finding your calling is an everyday path that we walk as we continue to look at how we are spending our day. One way to find your calling is to track your day and make notes about the things that you are doing and the feelings they evoke.

Spiritual Awakening: Starbucks Sharing and More

  

Spiritual Awakening: Starbucks Sharing And More

As I stopped into the Strabucks located close to Diamond Strike Lanes to prepare for my shift today I began to realize how important it is to implement the 3 foot rule, talking to people who are with in 3 feet of you and to begin to share. I had tickets for The June 2, 2012 Miami Fury Women’s Tackle Football Game when they will host The Tampa Bay Inferno and asked a gentleman if he liked football and he said yes and I told him about the game and he said his wife will love this so i gave him 4adult tickets and 4 youth tickets. We got to talking and he thanked me for the tickets. I use this story to illustrate how important it is to share with others as you never know the lives that you may touch.

 

Sharing the opportunity for people to celebrate life by participatimg in a variety of activities is a great way to spread joy through out the community.

Spiritual Awakening: What is Your Power?

Spiritual Awakening: What is Your Power?

When I was a kid I remember watching Superfriends on Saturday Morning and thinking how powerful these characters are. As I got older I began to ask the question, what is your power?  Over the years of exploring I found my power to be the ability to bring people together for the benefit of others. In high school I was the one who captained our March of Dimes Walk Team, in college I was the one who organized the special events like The Homecoming Bon Fire, where we collected donations for a local children’s hospital. After college I joined The Jaycees and quickly  began chairing special events. Today I do volunteer work with The American Cancer Society through Relay for Life and have found my power in fundraising. For the last 9 years I have been a STAR Supporter of The Relays that i participated in, raising a minimum of $1500 each year. Finding your power can be done by:

1: Meditation

2: Doing a Personal Skill Set Inventory

3: Finding What Makes You Come Alive

4: Looking at What Brings You Joy

5: Studying and Reading

Spiritual Awakening: Thanksgiving, Family, Friends or Another Day

Thanksgiving and Spirituality Showing Gratitude

Spirituality: Thanksgiving

This will be my first Thanksgiving without my mother, Judith Miller, as she was called home by GOD on July 5, 2012. I am honoring her and giving thanks for the years she was with us by asking people to visit http://main.acsevents.org/goto/jdogglederman and to make a donation. My Thanksgiving will be spent with my dad and his significant other at The Kings Buffet.

When Thanksgiving arrives and the sunrises it means turning on the tv and tuning into the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and seeing the joy on all the families gathered to celebrate this day of magic that seems to bring everyone together for the common good. For many it is a time for family and friends while for some it is just another day. After viewing the parade it is off to watch football and share time with my Dad and his significant other, Regina. I strongky believe that the elements of Thanksgiving should be shared on a daily basis. Some ways to do this are:

1: Be grateful for the roof over your head and reach out to help those who may not have this luxury

2: Use the magic words thank you when interacting with everyone

3: Write thank you notes just to acknowledge those who are enhancing your personal and professional life

4: Tak a moment simply to call a client and thank them for their support

Thanksgiving Parade Brings Joy

Spirituality: Thanksgiving Bringing Joy

Despite rain those that attended the Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade enjoyed themselves. This made me think what is it that you enjoy about the parade. For me

1: The bands and the entertainers at center stage

2: The Ballons- My Favorite is still Kermit followed by Snoopy

3: The Broadcasters and The Gentlema that does the Voice Overs

There  is something magical about waking up early on Thanksgiving and watching the parade and then taking a moment to reflect of all the good that is happening. This year despite some financial challenges I am grateful for the opoortunity to spend time with my Dad and Gina. The energy of the parade and  the joy it creates is is amazing as it propels many of us to assume a position of gratitude and thus reminds us that when we come from gratitude we open ourselves up to receive and give. It is in being grateful on Thanksgiving and through out the year that we can create great things.

Snoppy is one of my favorite characters and somehow I get balanced and centered when I see him in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. On this special day of Thanksgiving may you find balance, joy, abundance, peace, love, and happiness in all that you do and may your light of spirituality shine bright on others.

Spiritual Awakening: Expanding Your Horizons

Spiritual Awakening: Expanding Your Horizons

 

Dr.  Wayne Dyer says when you change your thoughts you change your life. This is so true as we begin to change the way we look at things the things we look at change. Think about how you have expanded and where you are today and continue to grow. Reach down inside and reprogram your thoughts. Some steps to do this include:

1: Letting go of  painful feelings by writing forgiveness letters

2: Spending quiet time exploring your inner messages and responding accordingly

3: Reading Books

4: Utilizing Affirmations  

5: Doing activities that  bring joy into your life, such as using oracle cards, attending spiritualy centered events.

 Spiritual Awakening: Recommmended Reading To Expand Your Horizons

. Soul Currency- Ernest Chu

. You Are Enough- Rev. Dr. Dee Adio-Moses

. Start From Where You Are- Ken Esrig

. Reshape Your World- Jeanne Adrienne

. Ordinary Planet Extrordinary People- Dr. Shellie Hipsky

.Lisa McCourt – Juicy Joy

. Suzzane Kovi – Ignite Your Life

. jacqueline JLOVE Jackson – 7 Soul Seeds

These authors will help you to become an action taker and to develop an anthem to help you to expand your horizons.

 

The following is a video I wanted to share with you to help you with your spiritual growth. This week let the divine in you be the shining light as you continue your spiritual growth and expanding your horizons.

       

It is when you begin to awaken that you truly begin to expand your horizons. One way to expand your horizons is through meditation.many ask how to meditate and there is no right or wrong way. I suggest finding a quiet place and getting comfortable and then quieting the mind and just breathing and allowing the thoughts to just flow in and out.

In answering your calling you will begin to expand your horizons and start to see great things happening in your life. By studying and learning more about your own spirituality you will begin to feel the expansion of your mind, body, soul connnection. As you expand you will begin to see changes and these changes will manifest into goodness happening around you.

Spiritual Awakening: More Tools To Expand Your Horizons

1: As mentioned earlier affirmations and quotes are good tools to expand your horizons

          

        

Songs often help to expand your horizons as they change the frequency that you vibrate at:


Many times it is simply doing a random act of senseless kindness that help to expand your horizons.

      

 

Sometimes I feel myself taking a walk and just appreciating the nature and realizing that everything is in divine order and thus I expand my horizons by begining to understand universal laws more and more.

     

It is often that we expand our horizons just by being and allowing things to flow and not reacting just appreciating what we are experienceing.
