Well, like Casper, not all spirits in your home are negative ones. It could be dear departed grandma dropping by to say hey. It's just that you've not known that she's been visiting you every Sunday, until recently. Fortunately, I've never encountered a spirit that was truly evil. I have met some that are impatient, confused and frustrated, however, but so was my ex-husband. I talk on the radio about some interesting experiences that I have had, but know that how you handle any situation is key. Fear will always keep you from growing. Who know's it may just be grandma coming for a visit. She loves you and does not want to scare you. Ask who is there. If it's grandma, she'll try their best to give you a sign that you'll recognize. </span><br /><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br /></span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">Now, if there's less than positive energy in your space and not your beloved granny, then smudging can certainly help. Just know that ghosts in your home, even ones that are not your funny departed Aunt Sally are not all bad. I remember being in an apartment where I kept seeing a shadow figure. When a friend of mine visited, she saw him too. We spoke to him together, his name was Francis and he did not know that he was dead.

<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">I am at a point in my life that I look at each experience as a gift. I know that this may sounds a little odd, but once I realized that the people I interact with are mere mirrors reflecting back what I am focused on and what I need to work on and the only thing in life that I have control over are my thoughts and reaction(emotions) it put everything into perspective. So is my theory and philosophy. </span><br />

<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">I also know that if someone treats me with less then love in some way, then it's on them, because I am not accountable or responsible for the actions of others. I believe that as I work on being that "being of love" that I am, then I shine. How someone feels about me is not my business, not my concern.</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GGEMceGUf6Y/XkVobexCgoI/AAAAAAAAIDI/1UR2KHIfp6gdHgw3OxVyHHFGnzz2B7xMACLcBGAsYHQ/s1600/Helping%2Bothers%2Bleeza%2Bdonatella.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><img border="0" data-original-height="675" data-original-width="1080" height="400" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GGEMceGUf6Y/XkVobexCgoI/AAAAAAAAIDI/1UR2KHIfp6gdHgw3OxVyHHFGnzz2B7xMACLcBGAsYHQ/s640/Helping%2Bothers%2Bleeza%2Bdonatella.jpg" width="640" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-size: medium;"><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">It is a delicate balance knowing when to help and when to stand back and allow the other person to handle the situation. </span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><b>Helping Others</b></span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">When faced with a decision when a friend thought they had a leak under their home, I did my best to check the places where water would be visible, but when the landlord came by, I gracefully exited, not wanting to make a bad situation any worse by sticking my nose in. </span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><b>Helping Your Children</b></span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">The same can be said when assisting a child in their challenges. You want to protect them, but if you live their life for them, you do them an injustice that they will pay for as adults navigating the world with little experience on handling the situations that arise. </span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><b>The Perpetual Victims</b></span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">There are people in this world that I call the perpetual victims. They play on the kindness of others. I remember Stacy, who I met when I first moved to AZ. She was having issues with a boyfriend. I ended up driving her to get a restraining order, then rented a truck and helped her move all her stuff into a storage unit. Yes, it was a kind deed, but i\I soon discovered a pattern with every subsequent man she dated, work situation and well, most every experience that all started out just fine, but soon blew up into some large drama. There can be a fine line between being a good friend versus an enabler. </span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">So you see that you have to know when to help. Just use this rule of thumb. </span><br />
<br />
</span><ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;">Offer but don't be insistent. And don't react if someone says no to your offer of assistance</span></li>
<li><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;">Learn when to walk away and let the experts or those accountable to step in</span></li>
<li><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;">Allow people to make their own mistakes and learn how to clean up their own messes. </span></li>
</ul>
<span style="font-size: medium;"><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br />Have a day filled with love, </span><br />

<span style="font-size: medium;"><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">I'm always grateful when I receive correspondence that what I've written has touched someone. I don't write for accolades or praise, I do it because I care. I also get a feeling, a deliciousness that tickles my heart when I know that it helps someone.</span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">When you give of yourself without expectation of reward, the Universe actually does rewards in more ways that you can imagine. I believe that</span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"> </span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">there's a balance in all things </span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">as part of Universal Law</span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">. When giving from your heart, your return is an overflow of inner love.</span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">What you give does not have to be a grand gesture. It can be as simple as a "Good Morning" and a smile to a stranger you meet about your day. To you, it may meaning nothing, but to them, well, it could mean the world. You don't know what sort of troubles and tribulations others face. Perhaps that friendly greeting was just what they needed at that moment to remind them that God is listening. You just never know. </span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">For me, I write these articles as part of that "pay it forward" philosophy. I am also always the first one to say hello to my fellow humans in stores, on the sidewalk and while waiting in line. My mind no longer consumed with worry, I have plenty of time for greetings, empathy and compassion. </span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">Why are so many other people are not doing the same? The answer is simple. Most people today are self absorbed in their own two-by-two existence. They are consumed with replaying situations and worrying about this and that. They do not recognize that the key to happiness and love is to release the things that are out of our control. One way to unburden your mind is to share your heart with everyone you meet. It all starts with a smile and a nice greeting!</span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">It's when we touch someone who has been, out of touch, that we provide them the opportunity to reopen that door to their heart.</span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">You have the ability to lift the broken hearted and help heal the wounded with 1 kind word, 1 kind act or gesture, so do that today. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: medium;"><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">
With all the deep, prophetic and philosophical articles that I've written about awakening, enlightenment and moving forward, I get the most questions from my most popular articles about fear. I find this very interesting, that with all the information out there about ways to connect to that state I call "Being Love," people continue to live in what some call lower fear-based emotions.</span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br />If you've not heard this before EMOTIONS are "energy in motion," each having a frequency, a vibration. Like the difference between a baritone and a soprano, there's a noticeable difference in the vibration and frequency when we feel happy versus when we feel sad; when we feel peaceful versus when we feel mad.</span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">Fear will always keep you from realizing your potential and connecting to the higher light-ness that's within all of us. You've heard of the term, lighten-up, right? </span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">Well when you lighten-up, you physically feel that release.</span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">That's why we</span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"> feel amazing when we stay for an extended period of time in joy, peace, compassion and charity. These </span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">frequencies are so delicious that they tickle our hearts. When we stay in that higher vibration, those wonderful positive emotions, something inside us changes. Some of the side effects are positive as well; you begin to feel better, look younger and attract the most amazing positive things in your life. </span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="color: white;">l</span><br />
</span><div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: medium;"><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="color: white;">vibration Vibrate Love</span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">Each emotion has a corresponding vibration, with UNCONDITIONAL LOVE having the highest vibration of all. Let me take a step back and tell you a little bit about the frequency of emotions so you understand how we vibrate who we are each moment.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: medium;"><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">David Hawkins believed that there's a corresponding numeric vibrational value associated with each emotion.

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: medium;"><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">When in a state of Being Love you're filled with joy, happiness and gratitude. You only have compassion and empathy for those who are not. You unconditionally love all situations no matter what you perceive the outcome will be because you know that each experience is a gift and you approach what seems as being a potential unpleasant situation with the expectation that something more amazing is about to happen.</span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br />
The simple rule of thumb related to vibrations is this:</span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><b>When you're in that <i>Love</i> vibration what I call a state of BEING LOVE, you feel warm and fuzzy inside. </b><b>When you are in a <i>Fear</i> vibration, you don’t feel very good, do you? </b></span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><b><br /></b></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: medium;"><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">I know that it sounds simple, but it really <b>is</b> that simple and staying there is where practice makes perfect. </span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">Many a scholar has said that when we stay in the highest vibration, love, we're headed toward enlightenment, like Buddha and Jesus. Pretty good company to be in, don't you think? </span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br />We're all works in progress, so don't beat yourself up for a momentarily slide into a lower vibration. That's part of self love. You have to love the person you are right now as you gain more insight and move forward. And if you want to hope of ever achieving unconditional love you first need to learn how to love yourself. When you do, then you can transmute everything into love and you're no longer living in the misery of the mind, that place where all the lower vibrations dwell.</span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br />Think about this: If you could stay more in that love vibration, what a delicious world indeed, heaven on earth, nirvana; what a pleasure it would be waking each morning, singing as you greet each person on the street, smiling and touching their hearts, offering your assistance from a place of true compassion and unconditional love. </span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br />So, take notice of your state of emotion and try to turn that frown upside down, that tight lip into a smile and share your love with your fellow man.</span><br />

<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">At some point in our lives most of us discover what love isn't.

<li><span style="font-size: medium;"><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">When doors close, pushing you in a different direction than you originally planned.

<span face=""helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">Depending on the situation of those we assist, things can get out of control as we get sucked into one or more of the interested parties drama. </span><span face=""helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">This chaos can be exponentially amplified depending on their stress level of the life crisis. I have first hand experience running from helping one person to another and in doing so, getting sucked in their overwhelming drama.</span><br />

<span face=""helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">In speaking to a friend, she lost someone close to her as a door closed. When I asked here how she felt, she paused and said, "I feel relieved that I am finally outside all that drama that I allowed that person to create in my life." I've been in similar situations myself and the words calm and relief ring true when it came to removing myself from the influence of those still living in the drama and nonsense.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: medium;"><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">As we scurry around these last few moments of 2019 to complete tasks before the upcoming year, take a moment for yourself, sit down in a comfortable chair with a cup of coffee, tea or hot cocoa and breathe. </span><span face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">As you sit there, listen to your heart rate, then ask yourself what you want in the coming year. </span><span face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">If your description makes you smile, then you know you're on the right track. </span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><span face=""arial" , "sans-serif""><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">I know first hand that we shape our existence. It doesn't take much for me to get inspired to articulate my desires so they can quickly come to me in the physical form. For example, I wanted to dance on the Great Wall of China and mentioned it in early 2012. By September that year, there I was, dancing away on that Great Wall, like the goofball I am known to be. I made my wish, the opportunity presented itself and I grabbed the proverbial bull by the horns. 2019 was a year of amazing accomplishments and US travel that me say as I looked back. "How'd you do that?" It started with me converting a high roof cargo van into a custom RV and traveling national parks in the US and Canada. Ph and cruising to Alaska. People asked me why? My answer was, "Because I can!" </span></span></span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: medium; text-align: left;"><b style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Also know that what you believe about yourself </b><span face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><b>influences</b></span><b style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"> what you manifest in your reality. Period!</b></span></div>
<span style="font-size: medium;"><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">So guys and gals, realize that you are manifesting all the time. The winning combination to manifest happy outcomes is to 1) Know what you want 2) Believe that obtaining it is possible 3) Be in a "<a href="https://amzn.to/2oA493A" target="_blank">high vibrating</a>" State of Being and 4) Detach from what you desire. </span><span face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">Perhaps in 2020, you want to practice creating more deliciousness in your life! </span><span face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">It's not difficult to manifest anything when you have that winning combo.</span><span face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"> </span><br />

<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;">As I embrace this holiday season, I am reminded of the many ways to give.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Charities<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;">Let’s start with what I think of as the most common form of
giving, providing funds to charitable organizations. Many people give money to
charities and in the US having these donations be tax deductible is a main
reason why many not-for-profit organizations are still in existence. There is even an organization call the
charity navigator that assists in the identification and rating of different
charities.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;">(http://www.charitynavigator.org/). You can scan their site to learn
about the different categories and ratings of these charities. It’ a source if
you are looking for a charity. And there are so many types: charities that
perform health disease research, food programs, fallen veteran’s families
programs, animal programs and so much more. I commend all that donate funds to
charities in this economic climate. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;">Many charities will take your used items and provide them at
a reduced costs to other families. Good Will, St. Vincent, Habitat Restore and

your old vehicle and real estate.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: medium;"><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">Think you have nothing to give? Well, even if you have the financial
means to support a charity, there is nothing better than rolling up your sleeves
and donating you time. Not only does it provide a service to the community,
your valuable time is so appreciated and your love infused in your work,
whether it be packages from home as you support our troops, working in an organizations
kitchen or food distribution center once a week. <o:p></o:p></span><br />

<span style="font-size: medium;"><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">With all the deep, prophetic and philosophical articles that I've written about awakening, enlightenment and moving forward, I get the most questions from my most popular articles that are about fear. I find this very interesting, that with all the information out there about ways to connect to that state I call "Being Love" that people continual live in what some call lower fear-based emotions.</span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br />If you have not heard this before EMOTIONS are "energy in motion," each having a frequency, a vibration. Like the difference between a baritone and a soprano, there is a noticeable difference in the vibration and frequency when we feel happy versus sad and peaceful versus mad.</span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">Fear will always keep you from realizing your potential and connecting to the higher light-ness that's within all of us. You've heard of the term, lighten-up, right? </span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">Well when you lighten-up, you physically feel that release.</span><br />

These </span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">frequencies so delicious that they tickle our hearts. When we stay in that higher vibration, those wonderful positive emotions, something inside us changes. Some side effects are positive as well as we begin to feel better, look younger and attract the most amazing positive things. </span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="color: white;">l</span><br />

<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">Each emotion has a corresponding vibration, with unconditional Love<i> </i>having the highest vibration of all.

Pretty good company to be in, don't you think? </span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br />We're all works in progress, so don't beat yourself up for a momentarily slide into a lower vibration. That's part of self love. You have to love the person you are right now as you gain more insight and move forward. And if you want to hope of ever achieving unconditional love you first need to learn how to love yourself. When you do, then you can transmute everything into love and you're no longer living in the misery of the mind, that place where all the lower vibrations dwell.</span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br />Think about this: If you could stay more in that love vibration, what a delicious world indeed, heaven on earth, nirvana; what a pleasure it would be waking each morning, singing as you greet each person on the street, smiling and touching their hearts, offering your assistance from a place of true compassion and unconditional love. </span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br />So, take notice of your state of emotion and try to turn that frown upside down, that tight lip into a smile and share your love with your fellow man.</span><br />

<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;">Prayers to Say When Smudging</span></h2>
<span style="font-size: medium;"><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">I receive so many questions asking me about what to sat when smudging that I decided to dedicate smudging prayers to their own article. </span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">These smudging affirmations can be the serenity prayer, words from a religious book like psalms, Native American prayers, spiritual prayers or a special affirmation of intentions that you feel strongly about. Pick one that resonates with you and say this smudging prayer out loud. My only suggestion is that you replace any negative energy that is being removed with a positive one.</span></span></div>
<div style="clear: both;">

<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">A few examples of smudging prayers:</span></span><br />
</span><ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;">"Dear Jesus, cleanse this house, allowing only love and light to remain."</span></li>
<li><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;">"Father God, rid this place of all negativity, bringing in only positive vibrations."</span></li>
</ul>
<span style="font-size: medium;"><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">Although not all spirits are negative, here's what to say to get rid of a ghost in your home. </span><br />
</span><ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;">"I ask the angels to show this lost spirit the loving light of heaven and help them transition to the next place. With love and light I cleanse this space to help them on their way to the next place."</span></li>
<li><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;">"Ancient elders, help me cleanse the home of the spirits of the past. Help guide them forward. Thank you for love and protection of this home."</span></span></li>
<li><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;">"I call on the angels to cleanse this space. Remove the demons and protect my place with your loving grace."</span></li>
</ul>
<span style="font-size: medium;"><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">You'll notice that I use the word love. Love energy has the highest vibration. Even invoking love can change the vibration of a location. </span><br />
</span><div>
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;">I hope that these smudging prayers assist you. </span></div>

Here are a couple of suggestions to get in that thankful spirit:</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
</div>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;">Remove all remnants of work from your brain and be in the present</span></li>
<li><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;">Do something nice for a stranger, like opening a door, letting someone who has less items get in front of you in line or wishing a senior a great day.</span></li>
<li><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;">Make time to be childlike and see the wonder of the world</span></li>
<li><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;">Smile and laugh out loud</span></li>
<li><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;">Tell those in your life how much they mean to you</span></li>

When we realize that we are in control of the arrangement we've made with ourselves and by abiding to some a few simple principles we are empowered. </span><a href="https://amzn.to/2n8O5FC" style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;" target="_blank">Book on Amazon</a></span></h2>

I first got interested in smudging back in 1998, immersing myself in any information that I could find out about the topic. I was so very fortunate to spend time outside the US, participating in cleansing ceremonies. This book delves into the history of smudging, smudging materials, prayers to say when smudging, the best times to smudge and more. </span><a href="https://amzn.to/2mceVfu" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;" target="_blank">Book on Amazon</a><br />

<span style="font-size: medium;"><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">As Mercury Retrograde is in full swing now, I wanted to take a moment to speak to you all about the ramifications of this time for all of us. </span></span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br /></span>
<strong style="background-color: white; line-height: 17.25pt;"><span style="border: 1pt none; color: #191919; padding: 0in;">What is Mercury Retrograde?:</span></strong></span><br />
</span><div style="background-color: white; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: initial initial; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 17.25pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #191919;"><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;">This happens three to
four times per year, when due to an optical illusion, the planet Mercury
appears to move backward in the sky. Some call this movement a retrograde, ergo
the term, Mercury Retrograde. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 17.25pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; vertical-align: baseline;">

<span style="color: #191919;"><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;">There are a plethora of things that you're asked not to do
during this time, like sign contracts, get surgery, make major decisions or buy
electronics because Mercury is the planet that rules communication. Most who
know about this time period know that it is a time of delays, miscommunications and misunderstandings.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #191919;"><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;">What most forget is this is a time filled with what I call the 5 “R’s.”<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 17.25pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #191919;"><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;">It is a time to “<b>return</b>” or “<b>revisit</b>” situations and issues from our past. It's a time to "<b>reflect</b>" on where you are now and how far we've come. Why? So we can “<b>resolve</b>”
and “<b>release</b>” what no longer resonates with our true selves. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 17.25pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; vertical-align: baseline;">

<span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #191919;"><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">Just becoming aware of this will help you be present and not <b><i>over</i></b>-react to some of the inconveniences during this timeframe. Take this time to slow your life down a bit, just like the illusion of Mercury and stop the bullets before they reach you. That <b><i>IS</i></b> the intention of this time period, so don't allow it to make cracks in your very fiber.</span></span><br />

moon, certainly an oxymoron for some to fathom, Pisces being so introverted,
Leo a more in your face demonstrative sign. This combination provides this Piscean

<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">Some people believe that all setbacks are catastrophic. Me, not so much, knowing that each experience is a gift that does one of three things:</span></span><br />
<br />
</span><ol style="text-align: left;">
<li><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;">Validates how delicious life is.</span></li>
<li><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;">Shows us where our homework is.</span></li>
<li><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;">Helps us realize how strong we are.</span></li>
</ol>
<span style="font-size: medium;"><br />
</span><a name='more'></a><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><b><u>The Delicious Life</u></b></span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">Of course I'm always so thrilled when presented with those validations that show me how wonderful this Earthly experience is. It refocuses me on the positive and opens me up to ever higher vibes. It's humbling and I am grateful for those grand times that sometimes come via synchronicitic events, but find it most often in the small things, like that perfectly crafted espresso, a pristine sky or the laughter of children.</span><br />
<br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><b><u>Our Homework</u></b></span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">Then there are those experiences that show us where we still have some homework. These are those events where we react prior to seeing the lesson for what it is, an opportunity to see how much we have evolved and grown. When I experience something and do not immediately identify it as a learning experience or one where I can react out of compassion, instead reacting in lower vibrating emotions of guilt, shame or frustration, I know that it is time to process the situation, my homework laid out before me.</span><br />
<br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><b><u>Realize Your Strength</u></b></span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">Lastly are those experiences that prove to us our strength. I have certainly had my share of those types of experiences, where I was thrust into the abyss due to circumstances that were outside my sphere of influence. In turn I momentarily hit rock bottom, not knowing if I would ever lift my head again. It's</span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"> in the middle of great turmoil or chaos, where I realize who I really am, rising from the ashes, like the Phoenix, reborn, once more stronger now then ever before. </span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">Know that the universe </span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">presents these experiences to </span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">helps us shape and fine tune who we are, allowing us to see things from different angles or points of view. Know that a</span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">ny setback is really just a small blip in the scheme of things. It just depends on how you look at it and how you react. Remember, the only thing that we have control over is our reaction.</span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br /></span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">You know the saying when life hands you lemons, make lemonade. So if you're going to make lemonade you should make the most delicious, sweetest lemonade that anyone has every tasted. When you do this, life becomes delicious once more.</span><br />

</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span face=""arial" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;">Our reaction to what we say or the words that are spoken to us can have such
power over us if we let them. That’s because negative words can hurt, biting into
the very fabric of who we are. Positive words have the power to heal, feed the soul and uplift the recipient.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-size: medium;"><span face=""arial" , sans-serif">It is these words that
alter existence and change the framework of our lives. I remember a situation
many years ago when my girlfriend Eileen and I ventured off into Manhattan and
were sitting in a small cafe having an espresso. I could overhear the
conversation at another table where an agent was telling a young filmmaker that
he should "throw in the towel." The agent’s words were harsh and the
recipient looked miserable. When the agent left, I excused myself, went over
and whispered a few words into the filmmaker’s ear, then returned to my table. <span style="color: white;">word</span></span><span style="color: white;"><span face=""arial" , sans-serif">s have the power to heal.</span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<a name='more'></a><span face=""arial" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;">Eileen turned to me
seeing the immediate change in this person commenting, “"Hey, that man
looked like he was going to jump off the Brooklyn Bridge a few minutes ago. Now
he is beaming and grinning from ear-to-ear. What did you say to him?" </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span face=""arial" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;">What I said to the man
was divinely channeled and yes, his mind, body and spirit were instantly
effected in a positive way. The above situation is a perfect example of both
one's possible reaction to being spoken to with kindness as well as one's
reaction when spoken to in a less than compassionate way. When the agent was
speaking to the filmmaker, the recipient was hunched over, his
skin pale and gray, his mouth turned down and his spirit defeated. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span face=""arial" , sans-serif" style="font-size: medium;">After I spoke to him, he
held his head up high, his face glowed, he was smiling wide and you could feel
his delicious positive energy from across the room. It's the difference between
being in a low vibration and a high vibration. This is a good lesson about the
importance of choosing your words carefully. This holds true whether you are
speaking directly to someone or about something. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">I believe that people who are miserable lash out at the world. It is related to ones energy and that energy is tied to one's emotional state. I also believe that </span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">all</span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"> </span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">this has a direct correlation on the Mind, the Body and Spirit and what we attract into our lives.</span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">As those of you who know me personally, it was a difficult time for me in late 2012 with an illness and the many life changes including divorce that I had that year that had me move to Sedona, AZ to connect and
repair. What you may not know is that during that vulnerable time in my life, I fell victim to a financial con from one of it's locals over a 3-month period. What I saw was someone who was down on their luck and offered them food, shelter and money to help him get back on his feet and move forward. </span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">After realizing that it was all a con, </span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">I finally stopped the financial bleeding</span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">. It was a costly financial and emotional lesson and a</span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">lthough it was a period for me of great pain, it was also one of the most transformational in my life. You see, if this person had not played such a great role as the abuser, I would not have realized how strong I really was! </span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"></span><br />
</span><a name='more'></a><span style="font-size: medium;"><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">Realizing the lesson and opportunity for positive growth, I hold no grudge nor any anger toward him, and was able to forgive him and move forward. </span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">I found it interesting as it was pointed out to me a few months back that although I have had no contact with this man in the 5</span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"> years since I got "<a href="https://goo.gl/M3Jkvf" target="_blank">ripped-off</a>," he has continued to bully</span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"> </span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">me in cyberspace, the lies growing exponentially since that time. Based on the whoppers my Sedona friends have shared that he continues to spread, perhaps he has misinterpreted my slight increase in popularity on the internet and believes that I now have tons of cash like George Clooney and is trying to get a bigger chuck of cash from me this time around? </span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">Whatever the reason,</span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"> I know </span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">that no matter what I say it will make no difference, since folks like this are blinded by their own misery. The higher we vibrate the more we attract darkness. I also know that words only have the power to hurt if you let them and that I only have control over my reaction. The fact that I also know that </span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">life's greatest teachers present themselves to us when we are at that apex of transformation, only tells me that I'm in a good place as I think of him with compassion </span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">when I read the lies he has spewed with his ridiculous Rip Off Report posting and subsequent comments that he unsuccessfully hid as his own. </span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">It also made me feel compassion for celebrities. From the perspective of the few 1000 people who will read this con man's falsities about me against the </span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">millions </span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">who read rags sheets and social media lies about them</span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">, well, there is no comparison. My heart goes out to the famous as they deal with this kind of negative energy everywhere they go.</span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">It's a shame really, that people are so unkind. </span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"> I had a friend who recently called he person who posted that Rip Off Report evil, </span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">but t</span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">elling lies</span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"> is an ugliness based on fear. Vibrationally, since you attract things into your life based on your emotional state, </span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">I'm sure that the emotions tied to my personal tormentor's emotional state by doing this is not attracting any good experiences in his life. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: medium;"><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">There are times in all of our lives, that we feel as if we're spinning in some proverbial hamster wheel. I know that when I am feeling stuck I have to take time to reflect and regroup. Now I do this by meditation without mantras or visuals. Perhaps you find this peace, this center in another way. As long as you do not rely on substances then you are on the right track. </span><br />

<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">Once I find my center, my balance, that’s when things become very clear. And when things are clear, doors open.</span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">I laugh when I think about all the little things I see out there that get people in a frenzy; a car moving just a little too slow in front of them during their morning commute; the cashier taking too long to return their change; a line at some store.</span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">These things no longer bother me. But I do still get sucked into the middle of an energy storm, not knowing which way to turn. And that makes me question the dream. Actually, when I'm in the middle of this storm, I inwardly say, "It's only a dream, it's only a dream."</span><br />

<span style="font-size: medium;"><span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Having lived in Sedona, AZ and working with Masters around the globe, I've met some pretty amazing energy practitioners, healers and spiritualists. I've also encountered charlatans, some very successful and some desperate for attention or money. </span><br />
<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">I'll never forget when I was standing in a shop in Sedona one afternoon and overheard one of the men there booking a tour over the phone for a couple to find the hidden Sacred Medicine Wheel, the Ceremonial Tepee and Mystical Labyrinth.</span><span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"> When he quoted the price at $500 for 2 hours, I almost lost my lunch. You see all these sacred areas are free to the public and are located behind the Walgreen's on Route 89A. It was then that I felt compelled to publish my article, <a href="http://spiritualspew.blogspot.com/2014/03/sedona-guide-to-spotting-fake.html" target="_blank">Sedona Fakes</a> and started filming all around town, posting free videos to YouTube about all the free things to do in Sedona.</span><br />
<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Integrity is choosing your thoughts and actions based on values rather than personal gain. It's when we strive to do our life's work in any modality and business with honesty and integrity that we're on the road to living a happy, successful existence. Most people know that the knot that they get in their stomachs as they steer off this path when they're doing something that's not in alignment with their true loving essence. It's that knot that signifies a lower fear-based emotion, perhaps greed, envy or despair.</span><br />
<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">When you live with integrity, you gain the respect and trust of others, showing them that what you have to offer adds value. This brings you bigger and better </span><span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">opportunities as more people trust you. In the long run, the </span><span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">rewards built on integrity, <span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; line-height: 22.4px;">values and a</span>c</span><span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">tions are greater that you can possible imagine. From a vibrational frequency standpoint, people who live with integrity are vibrating higher as they epitomize what it means to be love.</span><br />
<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">I still am taken aback when I encounter liars and cheaters, what some term snake oil salesmen. I guess I still have work to do when it comes to compassion for all as I strive toward enlightenment.</span><br />
<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="background-color: white; color: #666666; line-height: 18.48px;">Wishing you a day filled with Love,</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #666666; line-height: 18.48px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #666666; line-height: 18.48px;"><span style="line-height: 18.48px;"><span style="line-height: 18.48px;">LeeZa Donatella</span><br style="line-height: 18.48px;" /></span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After over 30 years, I've been beaten down and pummeled by the corporate machine until there was nothing left but a bloody stump. As a hired gun for corporations, boy have I seen my share of the corporate jungle, with more juicy stories about <i>those</i> personalities and bad behavior then you can shake a stick at. But here I am vibratiing higher with more love and compassion then I know what to do with.</span><br />
<br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I'm working with editors to put the finishing touches on this new book geared toward helping readers navigate the workplace with ways to take the higher road when dealing with office politics, personalities and the situations that tie us in knots, bring us to tears and cause us fury, envy and disappointment. </span></div>
