Monday, September 21, 2009 - Today's Words of Inspiration and TWO giveaways!


Know Your Spirit - Awaken Your Inner Mixologist

This weekend I had the opportunity to attend a Dewars Discovery Event. While the tasting was a huge component of the event, the history behind the product and the chance for attendees to mix our own Scotch was one of the highlights. At first it reminded me of science class, there were beakers set up on the tables and within each beaker was a 'note' or essence of what you find in the final blend, separated out so we could learn to identify them individually.

And while they may not seem like similar experiences on the outset, the night brought me back to a trip to Mexico where I visited a very small museum. I went through the exhibits at the museum relatively quickly and right before I was ready to leave, the Museum's Docent stopped me and asked me questions I could not answer about the exhibits. Exhibits I had just seen! He led me through again, asking questions about each piece that were not only incisive, but very much reminded me that it's important to be more observant about what I see and experience.

This weekend was more than an opportunity to 'know my spirits' so to speak, it was reminder to observe and savor what life has to offer.

While I do enjoy a fine Scotch particularly in winter, I never really stopped to think about the flavors and notes of it. I never really stopped to truly appreciate it. (Although I will admit I did stop to appreciate it's ability to warm me up when it was freezing outside! LOL)

Today I urge you to savor the beautiful things, the beautiful experiences and the beautiful people that surround you.

Use 'Today's Words of Inspiration' as a breathing meditation to still your mind, quiet your thoughts and bring in positive energy. As you inhale bring in only positive energy by saying in your mind, I breathe in positive energy (or you can say creative energy if that is what you wish to create more of) and as you exhale, Affirm out loud today 'Today I observe the nuances, I see the small things and I enjoy the beauty my life has to offer.'

Spend some time each day enjoying focused breathing AND soul guided meditative visualization, in doing so, you can bring about amazing, profound and powerful changes in your life.

Visualize yourself manifesting something unique, guided by universal forces that emerge spontaneously from within your soul. Do this at least twice today and see how by taking a moment away from the hectic pace and breathing in positive energy and affirming what you wish to create, your thinking will become different.

Remember, attitude really does determine altitude.
