Ellen
DeGeneres once said: “I am saddened by how people treat one
another and how we are so shut off from one another and how we judge one
another, when the truth is, we are all one connected thing. We are all
from the same exact molecules.” Her
quote is synonymous with the 2nd Unity Principle - Everything
is an individualized expression of God.
This
is not a new belief. Buddhist and Hindus
believed this also. They believe that
your actions were responsible for the type of life you have, in that your life
is the sum of a person's actions
in this and previous states of existence, viewed as deciding their fate in
future existences.

Biologist
Bruce Lipton’s (Biology of Belief) research demonstrated that a person’s
perception, not genetic programming, is what spurs all action in the
body: It’s our beliefs, or our assumed truth, that select our genes which choose our behavior. Human beliefs choose to perceive a positive
or negative environment. If we are
victims, we are victims of our beliefs.
If I
am an individualized expression of God and everything else is also an
individualized expression of God, yet I AM God, and everything I see was
created by me, then everything I see is an individualized expression of me. So
if my life is not filled with the things I want to experience, the solution is
to change my beliefs.
Romans
12:2 says, do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by
the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's
will is--his good, pleasing and perfect will.
To
transform your mind, you start by re-thinking what you believe to be
impossible. How do you re-think the impossible?
The First Step, according to Arnold Patent, author of The
Journey and You Can Have It All, says to make a list of your personal
beliefs about the experience you want to change. It’s in your belief that is clouding your
acceptance of the Truth that you are the Power and Presence of God. Every thought, action, feeling event and
circumstance in your life tell you what you believe.
It
has been proven that what we feel is stronger than what we think, so try using
the Feeling Exercise created by Deborah Sandella, Ph.D., RN. Close your eyes, while breathing in and out,
pay attention to each body part. As you
place your awareness in each part of your body, notice what you feel in each
area. As thoughts, feelings, and images
arise, embrace them. Using your imagination,
ask any “situation” to reveal to you where it is in your body. Then just breathe into feeling the feeling,
not judging it. Arnold Patent states
that you are to simply feel love for these feelings, and feel love for yourself
feeling these feelings. Now that you
have identified these feelings, repeat to yourself, “I intend to release these
feelings from my body.”
The next step is to replace negative feelings with positive
feelings. Imagine your body filled with
happiness, confidence, and joy. When you
have finished, open your eyes and write down the feelings. Keep the list in a place where you can see
them daily. This will allow you to
experience positive feelings daily.
Life is your mirror. What you see
as your outside, always comes from your inside – Anonymous.
Remember,
life is too short to drink cheap champagne.
Dream Big and Life the life you have
imagined.
