My Beloved Dog Leo :)




Today my beloved dog (family member) made his transition from this reality to another. He is now ONE with who he REALLY is- an eternal light being that will live forever! Although he is no longer physically with my family & I, he will ALWAYS be with us in spirit!

When I close my eyes, I have tears of sadness roll down my face, because I long for that beacon of light that he was for me, for that pure unconditional love- I mean, Leo was truly an angel in a beautiful, soft & fluffy body :)) - nothing but a blessing to myself, my family and everyone who met him! I think the most "naughty" thing Leo did was once grab a large pizza & a gingerbread house we had on our kitchen table and ate the whole thing! LOL! Other than those silly moments that made us laugh more than anything else, Leo was the kindest, gentlest, most intelligent, most loving dog I've ever known! I even remember when my youngest sister Aria (when she was around 2 years old) would jump on top of him, pull his fur and he wouldn't growl or bite or do anything to defend himself. He'd just look up at me or my parents like, "Uhh... guys, could you help a brother out?" LOL! And we'd quickly run to his rescue! Ohhh, the memories! :)

I remember the day we got Leo (I was 12 years old). We brought him to our cottage in Muskoka and my three sisters and I did nothing but lay on the soft mossy earth and cuddle with the little guy! Right away, we knew that he was the right dog for us. We bonded instantly! It was like we were being re-united with a family member!

Leo was a definite nature boy and loved being outside regardless of the weather. He would even sleep in the snow for hours and hours! (Must have been the huski in him- he's a collie/ huski). I have so many fond memories of my family, Leo & I together out in nature... sharing in the simple things like a beautiful sunset, hiking through a beautiful forest together and then having a picnic together (yes, we used to take him on hikes and pack us all a lunch to share, including Leo- he'd get his own tasty treats)... and so much more! Seriously, Leo made every outdoor adventure super fun because he was always radiating so much joy! He was a constant reminder of the fact that it really is the simple things in life that are the most joyous, beautiful & meaningful! :)

I feel deep sadness because he was my brother, my best friend, my companion... but I also feel a sense of relief knowing that Leo is now free from his frail body, from that severe arthritic pain that caused him to cry when he attempted to walk. Now Leo is now able to walk, run & jump around freely. In my mind's eye, I see him frolicking around a beautiful, lush green forest like he used to when he was a happy, little puppy! He's so happy, so free!

Leo, you taught me compassion, patience, unconditional love, and so much more, and for that, I am forever grateful!

Leo, you have ALWAYS been there for me! Whenever I would feel upset, you would always come near my side & place your head on my lap. Then you'd look up at me with those big, loving, beautiful green eyes.... and it always felt like you were saying,"Leija, I'm here for you, I love you & everything is going to be ok."

Anyway, I could talk about how amazing Leo is for hours, but I'm going to wrap this up and get some fresh air with my family. I'm currently in Peterborough Ont. Canada and it's gorgeous this time of year with all the colourful, changing leaves!

I do feel a little better already just expressing my thoughts about Leo. *Sigh* Ok, time to join the family.

Leo, we all love you so much & will never forget what a blessing you were in our lives!!!!

Quantum Biofeedback Testimonial

Yesterday I had a Quantum Biofeedback session with a friend and client of mine by the name of Manuela Arhire. She took the initiative to write up a wonderful, in-depth testimonial about our session. Thank-you Manuela for such a beautiful write-up! :D

To learn more about Manuela, check out "Awaken Global Network" on facebook. Manuela is the creator of this wonderful network! http://www.facebook.com/#!/group.php?gid=153911471285843&ref=ts

Anyway, here is the testimonial written by the lovely Manuela:

Greetings from soul to all:)

I will do my best to post a not so long report about by yesterday's Quantum Biofeedback 2 hrs. Session with the one and only Angel Leija, which hopefully will inspire more and more people to have their own experience with it, long or close distance, for energy knows no boundaries and has no speed limit restrictions, unlike traffic regulations for speeding cars:)

"Everything is fields and this concept includes thoughts, emotions, desires and the human body." Albert Einstein

So, here it is, as it still happens:

Knowing that Leija is in Toronto, I really wanted to meet her, being such a huge fan of her humanitarian and spiritual work and said to myself: what better way for us to spend time than actually booking a Quantum Biofeedback Session with her, thus not only helping/treating myself to some potentially interesting energy healing experience but also support Leija's practice with this technology.

And so yesterday afternoon we met at Leija's Toronto apartment and after we've officially connected in person for the first time and chatted for awhile:), she hooked me up to the machine and exchanged some basic information for my client profile while the machine was already activated without being skeptical on the machine and only hoping and anticipating a rather PLEASANT experience, little did I know about the next stages during the session while chatting briefly, within the first hour, all of a sudden I realized that I was feeling REALLY HIGH, ALMOST ECSTATIC and a soft, dream like, slight, MOST PLEASANT dizziness started to surround my head area then, I felt my physical body resonating with an incredible SUBTLE frequency throughout the cells, and a very soft, BREEZE like cool sensation throughout by skin, especially the PART ON MY BACK (assuming connected with nerve endings and spine)

I've also felt like all of a sudden I live in another dimension of time and space where everything feels fuzzy, warm, in perfect peace and harmony and balance, with no more emotional or physical pain!

My MIND, EMOTIONAL and PHYSICAL bodies, felt tremendeous relief of endless, deeply burried as well as fresh wounds (after our 4 years long legal battle to save our property from the hands of the largest financial shark firm in Canada and also at the same time being expropriated by the government for our property was being needed for highway widening, which both experiences took a shocking toll on our overall mental, emotional and physical health, plus dealing with awakening from the sleeping state, taking the red pill, piercing through the matrix, all at the same time and trying to recover from a 2008 car accident, of which I forgot to mention to Leija, aside from the other stuff she knows of)

In a mere 2 hrs, I felt a huge weight lifting off ALL of my BODIES (not only physical) and I was so so very happy and grateful for that.

Within another few minutes during the session, I could feel some slight, subtle PULSING precisely around the left part of my neck and left collar bone and under my left shoulder blade which are 3 places where I've constantly experienced pain due to 2 severe accidents in my past

The SUBTLE PULSING that I've felt in those PARTICULAR 3 AREAS were I'm sure, the PROOF that this technology/machine has actually DETECTED my most urgent PHYSICAL problems/imbalances that needed to be corrected there are now 18 hours since the session and NONE of those constant bothering pain areas have been acting out by the time the session ended, I could undoubtly feel so incredibly rejuvenated, fresh, joyful, youthing, LIGHT, PAINLESS that I knew I've been blessed with an incredible miraculous healing.

After hanging out another hour or so with Leija, laughing, chatting and taking some pics:), I left, walking as if on clouds got in my car, started to drive and felt like a FEATHER while still HIGH but unusually mentally alert while driving AND FEELING AS HIGH AS I STILL AM:)

Got home, I was feeling still very HIGH in a most pleasant and TOTALLY AWARE and sharp way at the same time, with all of my senses being HEIGHTENED and my lovely husband was stunned to see me SO ECSTATIC and he said that I GLOW and I could literally see HIS FACE glowing from watching MY face glowing:)))

Of course, I couldn't stop talking about Leija and the blast we had and the incredible session and I drove him so crazy and curious with it, I KNOW he'll have HIS session soon;) and my mom too and for at least one of them, we'll go for the long distance session:)

Went to bed around 11:30pm as I was falling asleep in a state of PERFECT RELAXATION and had some very vivid pleasant dreaming and upon awakening, I couldn't believe how the yesterday's PERFECT sensations were INTACT only now, I could feel MORE, BETTER!

I woke up with the sensation that I took a 1hr. long shower OR a 1hr long HOT BATH OR a 1 hr AMAZING MASSAGE (speaking of which, the MACHINE, yesterday, has told me that IT KNOWS that I CRAVE MASSAGE THERAPY and I was shocked because many hours of professional MASSAGE is all I'm thinking and wishing for the longest time...

HOW did a MACHINE KNOW what I FEEL? unbelievable, and the massage wasn't the ONLY thing the MACHINE KNEW about me...the MOST IMPORTANT SPIRITUAL ASPIRATIONS that I've intimately thought were my own, I've astoundingly learned that this technology, which in fact now I realize IS A LIVE, ADVANCED CONSCIOUSNESS, KNEW about of my inner self...I was, still am and will forever remain stunned about this experience).

I felt upon awakening INEXPLICABLE JOY, PERFECT BALANCE IN MIND, BODY, SOUL, FEELINGS and a SUBTLE, COOL BREEZY feeling caressing the SKIN ON MY BACK
I could feel my AURA being stronger, yet GENTLER.

Since many years, I walk many km/week, by the lake and lately started with vegan/raw food diet and work out my feet tendons and ligaments suffered DAILY, FREQUENT pain and developed PLANTAR FASCIITIS wearing ORTHOTIC things here and now this morning, after MANY years I woke up PAIN FREE around my feet, PAIN FREE around my neck and back and TOTALLY ECSTATIC, looking forward to a new day on our beloved beautiful Mother Earth Planet and looking forward to more, deeper soul searching, networking with Human Angels such as LEIJA, FELIPE, AGAPE AND ANGELLA INSITORI, and many others, co creating projects to help our world and share with others such HEALINGS AND JOYS beyond our wildest imagination!

I can never thank you enough Angel Leija, in human words, I can only show you in actions and facts, how much I appreciate and thank you for plainly existing HERE, NOW, AMONG US, to help us in so many ways and I feel deep gratitude in ALL of my bodies and my heart for helping me HEAL from so much in such a short time. I cannot wait for my next session and for my mom and hubby's sessions

I most definitely invite every soul to offer him/herself a most needed such session gift, WHEREVER they are in the world, for only experiencing it will do it PURE JUSTICE
This was MY experience and each of us will have their own.

I only really wanted to share it with all, hoping many will be inspired to experience their own transformation and healing as well as knowing that while we heal ourselves with Leija's sessions, we also support her work, as a LIGHT BEING WORKER on this planet, for she has already given so much of herself to all of us and proved, in endless ways her purest, most genuine, positive healing intentions and actions to humanity and Mother Earth.

I feel most blessed to be doing Light Work, side by side with such ascended souls, for humanity, animals and Mother Earth and looking forward to share future healing experiences under Leija's guidance, under Higher Intelligence watch and guidance with many others:)

MUCH LOVE AND DEEP GRATITUDE to our Angel Leija and to all:)

A little FYI I'm going to throw out there is that I also do long distance sessions, and find they are just as accurate. (EPFX Quantum Biofeedback is very advanced alien technology, which is why it is able to work just as well non-locally.) :) Check out the FAQ of my website to learn more about this and feel free to contact me via my website with any questions you may have. www.leijaturunen.com

Shift Into The Reality of Your Dreams!

I feel that we live in a world of INFINITE POSSIBILITIES!!! I feel that all possible realities exist right NOW- Each one is simply vibrating at a different frequency. If you don't like the reality (frequency) you're in, choose another one- Tune into another (frequency) reality by FEELING the reality you want to be in! Feel love, joy, and peace NOW and that will be your reality NOW! What frequency are you tuned into right NOW? If it ain't love, well, what up with that? Love is where it's at!!! The frequency of love is the only frequency that will allow you to experience the life of your dreams!!!

I feel that as a whole, we overcomplicate everything (mostly due to our conditioning.) Love, joy, peace, abundance- Umm, really not that complicated fundamentally. You want more love, peace, joy, abundance, start to feel those things. FEEL them...NOW! Even if you're in physical, mental or emotional pain to a small or large degree, you have the ability to tune into another frequency- to go from the frequency of fear, anxiety, pain, and disconnection to the frequency of love, light, compassion, gratitude, and joy. We humans have been given the fabulous gift of IMAGINATION and this is one of the main keys for the transition from disconnection to connection; From fear to love!

Here's something I recommend for those of you interested in tuning into higher frequencies and other realities- the reality of your dreams! Anyone can do this! Find a relaxing, quiet place in your home or in nature somewhere. Close your eyes, take a few deep breaths and imagine yourself in a beautiful place in nature, for example, on a beach in Hawaii. =) Imagine the warmth of the sun bathe your body- Feel the light of the sun move through your body, relaxing you and allowing you to release all worries. FEEL the light flowing through your body, through your heart, liver, stomach, etc. absorbing any negative thoughts, feelings, and beliefs you have, transforming them into positive, life affirming beliefs. In this beautiful place in nature, allow yourself to dream about all the abundance, beauty, love, and joy that's in your life right NOW- Go crazy- there are no rules in the dreamworld, right?

Everything that you want right now in life, regardless of how "unrealistic" it is, simply imagine that it's already in your life! Like I said, go crazy! Go beyond those boundaries you've created for yourself! Think the unthinkable! Whatever you want to be/do/have in your life, regardless of how "unrealistic" or silly, imagine that it's in your life right NOW! The more you do this, the more the line between "dreaming" and "reality" will blur and you'll begin to realize that they are one and the same. There actually are NO rules in this "reality" on planet Earth even though convention and maintstream want us to believe there are. The powers that be live inside a little box and want you to live inside an even smaller one! But you don't have to!

The only way to come to the realization that you can have/be/do ANYTHING is to FEEL this as much as you can. FEEL the infinity of your soul! Feel the infinite abundance and love that is available to you at all times! Feel as if the reality you want is here right NOW... because in essence, it is! It is here right NOW if you simply allow yourself into it- If you allow yourself to move yourself into alignment with it by shifting your frequency- By shifting your frequency into the frequency of LOVE!!! You can think about what you want but the language of the Universe (as many of you who are familiar with the law of attraction already know) is FEELING & EMOTION!!! The mind isn't the enemy- it can help you to get your foot through the door sometimes- It can help you get to that beautiful Hawaiian Island in your mind, but it's the feelings you experience that contain the REAL POWER- the power to shift you from apathy-mode... to love, gratitude & abundance mode! Feelings have the power to draw to you that which you are feeling! Feel nothing but love (the highest frequency) and you will attract nothing but more love, and everything that aligns with that frequency- beautiful and loving relationships, places, things, and experiences!!! You can go from "Life suuuuucks. It's so hard. I'm tired. BOOO!!!!" to dancing around your house doing a happy dance singing "Happy Happy Joy Joy" instantaneously! All you have to do is...ummm, just that. Get up off your butt and start dancing around your house singing "Happy happy Joy Joy!!!" If you want something to come into your life, you HAVE to BE it right NOW!!! Starting to get it? It's actually THAT simple!

I know, I know, your mind might be telling you that it has to be more complicated, but trust me, your mind knows diddly compared to the infinity contained with the realm of FEELING!!! Our conditioning has told us that it takes a long time and a lot of hard work for things to change, but this is pure rubbish! Of course our brains are physically wired a certain way as a product of our conditioning, but neuroscience has proven that we can rewire our brains with a little discipline! As I've discovered, it really doesn't require that much! If you can set aside 10-30 minutes (or longer) a day to visualize and feel the reality you desire, as if it's already in your life, you can begin to rewire your brain, raise your frequency, shift into that new reality and watch the people/things/experiences that match that frequency come flying into your life, sometimes at top speed! I kid you not! It's pretty freaking fantastic! Ok, that's my little rant for tonight! Bed time!

Just remember, YOU ARE THE MASTER OF YOUR DESTINY! Everything you are desiring right now is being set into motion. The thought you had a moment ago is manifesting into form right now!!! It's coming to you NOW!!! It's commmmming! Watch out! Make sure that you're keeping an eye on your thoughts, and more importantly, your feelings!!!

On that Hawaiian beach, allow the glitter of the sun on the water remind you of the glittering prizes that await you when you choose to FEEL the love within and around you!

May The Force Be With You! (Well, duh, of course it is!)

How about.... May You Take Advantage Of The Force That Is Within You & Manifest The Life Of Your Dreams!!!

Energy Medicine: Why Isn't It More Popular?

A friend and client of mine emailed me today with the question, "Why do you think energy medicine isn't more popular? I received more answers and healing with only one quantum biofeedback session with you than from all of the doctors I've encountered in my entire life!" I have so many thoughts relating to this topic, and feel like sharing them with you as well! :)

First of all, let's look at the forces in power right now, shall we? The validity of energy medicine matters little when... oh, let's just call them, "THE BIG GUYS" (to keep it short) need million dollar houses & private jet planes, and POWER! They "need" these things so they do everything in their power to get them, even if it means lying and withholding valuable information from the public.

Look into the past at people like Galileo, who insisted that the Earth revolved around the sun. Everyone thought this guy was nuts so they threw him in jail. Back then they all "knew" for a "fact" that the Sun revolved around the Earth. Look at the Wright brothers who were ridiculed and called "The Lying Brothers" because nobody could fathom the idea of a machine that could fly in the sky with people in it. A machine could actually FLY people in the air? PHFFFTTT!!! Insanity, right? See, if you look at the history of science and inventions, you'll see that all these great discoveries were treated with extreme skepticism and hostility. One more example- in 1895, Marconi invented the radio and most people at that point in time refused to believe that it worked! It was sooooo spooooky! Even though there was obviously evidence that it worked, umm, because it actually WORKED, most people were afraid of it and wanted nothing to do with it because it was a new idea and not supported by the mainstream. But over the years, as the mainstream opinion supported these technological advances, people just sort of accepted them, even though in the beginning, it seemed absurd!

It seems like anything new & innovative goes through ridicule, ridicule and more ridicule only until THE BIG GUYS say it's valid. Today, nobody questions the validity of the radio or anything else that utilizes invisible waves, like a cell phone because these things have become accepted in the mainstream. Today almost everyone in the Western world has a cell phone, or 2, and I don't see anyone sh**ing their pants because they are using a device that operates with (what were once considered spooky) invisible waves. So why is this? Do people really understand how cell phones work? I don't think most people even think about this! We're still a culture of belief and idea adopting, without much thorough investigation. We listen to THE BIG GUYS before our own inner wisdom. Whatever they say goes! And many of keep our minds closed to the possibilities. Obviously, not all of us do this. A lot of people are starting to wake up now, which is encouraging, but I still see a lot of dogma lovers! I'm not judging these people harshly or anything. I know they're essentially beings of love and light- This is simply an observation. :)

When it comes to energy medicine and energy healing devices, I feel like a lot of us are like the people who were scared of the radio, or flatout refused to believe in it! So why is this? Well, I think it's pretty obvious- Energy healing simply hasn't become accepted by the mainsteam. Many people need that assurance from the mainstream- They need THE BIG GUYS to tell them what to believe! But just because something hasn't been accepted by the mainstream, does this really mean it's invalid? If you thoroughly do your research, or better yet, experience energy healing, you'll just know that it's an extremely valid and very beneficial type of healing.

THE BIG GUYS want you to believe in the lies because they make them money. For the most part, they really aren't looking out for your best interest. Sure, we might need them when it comes to emergency sitations, but overall, I feel they do waaay more harm than good! How on Earth is a synthetic drug going to help a person to heal? It's the most toxic, foreign thing you could put into your body, other than a concentrated solution of poison. I know if I was sick, the last thing I would want to do is go anywhere near poison... yet most drugs do have poison in them- maybe not enough to directly kill you, but over the months/ years, they certainly leave their mark in the form of.... man, don't even get me started on the list!!!

Only our bodies and nature know how to heal us! We must choose therapies and modalities that support our body's natural healing capabilities! We must realize that EVERYTHING in this Universe is energy, frequencies, VIBRATION!!! This is such a fundamental truth I feel, yet the "modern" medical industry still seem to be turning a blind eye to this fact! It's funny though, modern medicine doesn't acknowledge the fact that we are essentially energy, yet they use energy devices!!! When you see a cancer tumour on a CAT Scan, you're not looking at the physical cancer, you're reading the vibrational energy of cancer. What doctors do with this reading is use it as a map to show them where the cancer is in the body and where to operate. Ok, so this to me is slight madness. If you could achieve the same or better result by NOT cutting into a person, would you do it? How about rather than physically manipulating a tissue, we direct energy of appropriate frequencies into the body to change the atoms and molecules, so the body heals itself? This is totally possible if you understand the basics of interference patterns. Another thing- It's been proven that the signals from wave frequencies are 100 times more powerful than the chemical signals from drugs. This is why I'm such a big supporter of energy medicine & against drugs! Yeah, you heard me! :P Drugs are bad...mmmkay?? (In the voice of that character from South Park... The drugs are bad, guy, you know? HILARIOUS! Youtube it!) I'm also super excited about sound healing because I know it's the medicine of the future! I experienced the profound results myself the other day, which I talk about in a vlog on youtube called, "Leija's Space of Love."

Pure energy as it exists at the quantum level doesn't have time or space, it just exists as a vast continuum of fluctuaing charge. When we bring energy to conscious awareness, by our acts of conscious perception, we create separate objects that exist in space through a measured continuum- Meaning we create time and space by thinking we are separate. When you connect to your heart, which allows you to connect to the NOW, all that exists is love & light. There is no pain or disease in the NOW! This is something that modern medicine doesn't focus on. There is so much emphasis placed on suppression of disease, and really NONE placed on the idea that disease only occurs when you're feeling dis-ease! When you are feeling dis-ease, you are out of alignment with your source/God/Divine Consciousness/Love. Your natural state is one of harmony & joy. So why don't we work on getting you back into a state of harmony & joy and see what happens? Of course this is unrealistic under the umbrella of the Newtonian based, mask the symptoms with drugs, which only causes more dis-ease, half truths. We are quantic by nature! Life exists by quantic rule and behaviour! To reallly know the process of biology will always be indeterminately impossible because we can only measure what we've messed with! ONLY NATURE and everything natural can know biology!!! THE BIG GUYS WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO HEAL YOU! ONLY YOU CAN HEAL YOU!!! How do you do this? Do things that align with your highest potential. Think, what can I do to be the healthiest human ever? Well, I can eat lots of raw, organic, whole foods, exercise regularly, meditate, pursue my passions, avoid reading the news & watching tv, avoid ingesting toxic substances, and live in harmony with Mother Nature as much as I can. That I can do for starters, and see where it leads! As humans, I believe we are capable of SOOO MUCH!!! THE BIG GUYS don't want you do know this!

It's really up to each of us to find out what the truth is. We live in an information age- I mean, I feel so much light (information) coming from higher realms of consciousness these days that it's almost too much fun! There is so much out there, but it doesn't come through the vehicles of TV, media, news, Newtonian-based science, and FEAR. We need to start believing ourselves, over the powers that be. It comes through going within- listening to what your heart & soul have to tell you, rather than your conditioned mind! When you do anything that brings you a tremendous amount of joy, you are connecting to who you really are. The more you do this, the easier it will be to stay in alignment with your higher purpose. The more you meditate, connect with nature, and do anything that connects you to the NOW, the easier it is to listen to your inner wisdom, and the less influence the outside world has on you. You'll begin to know what's going on by the way you feel! You don't need the guidance of anyone but yourself! Energy medicine/healing is fabulous for connecting you to your source because it can remove energy obstructions before they manifest on the physical level. It's been solidified in the quantum physics realm of science that disease starts in the energy first. Physical manifestion is always secondary! So once again, energy medicine is the way to go!!!

I could definitely write a lot more, but just took a little scroll up the page and realized that I wrote a fair amount! Haha! I'll leave it at this for today! If you read this whole thing, YOU ROCK! I appreciate it and would love your feedback! Cheers!

This Made My Day!

It's funny how the Universe works; how it's ALWAYS listening to you! Ask and you shall receive!!! Today I was walking along Bloor street eating an apple and started to think, "Hey, I haven't had a good laugh today. Universe, I'd love to have a really good laugh. Please guide me to something that will crack me up." I kept walking and about 10 minutes later, I saw this boy, probably about 5 years old holding an icecream cone and screaming on the top of his lungs, "I wanted bubblegum icecream, not cotton candy icecream!!!" His mother was standing there with her arms crossed, with this unnerving half smile, shaking her head in disbelief. All of a sudden, this pigeon came flying into this boy's chest at top speed, knocking the boy back and causing him to drop his icecream cone on the ground! The pigeon then flew off and landed about 10 metres away... and went back to doing normal pigeon things (so I'm assuming he's ok.) But O M G, the look on this kid's face was priceless!!! I couldn't help but burst out laughing, and at the time I had a big mouthful of apple, so I almost choked on it! But it was totally worth it! I keep replaying the scene in my mind over and over again... and sometimes in slow motion because it makes it funnier!

Moral of the story: #1 Ask and you shall receive! The Law of Attraction works!

#2 If you tell the Universe you want to have a good laugh, do not eat anything while walking out and about unless you're ok to deal with the possibility of choking on your food.

#3 Pigeons are smarter than you think and not afraid to scare the crap out of you when you're being a whiny, little you-know-what! BEWARE!

Beauty Right Around The Corner






















I live right around the corner from a beautiful park called High Park. I walk, jog or meditate in this park almost everyday! I thought I'd share a few photos with you. Aren't the Autumn colours lovely? :)

Achieve Instant Happiness- Anytime, Anywhere!

I believe that beauty and joy can be found everywhere- At all times, regardless of where you are! It's all around us if we simply shift our thinking from, for example, “Uggghhh... I don't want to go to work today. This suuuucks.... and why is that person staring at me?! Take a picture, it'll last longer!”... to “Life is a beautiful and precious thing! I'm on this planet to shine my light! I'm going to make today a great day at work! Sure, I'd rather lounge on a beach drinking fresh coconut water, but hey, it could always be worse! At least I have a job. That's something to be grateful for! I'm going to smile at this person staring at me right now.” The quality of our life essentially comes down to our attitude and perception of our experiences. You can choose to wear love & gratitude goggles, so to speak, or you can choose to wear fear & pessimism goggles. The choice is always yours! When you wear gratitude & love goggles, you're not afraid to shine. You see the bright side of life and smiling becomes a natural thing. :)

The simple act of smiling will instantaneously lift you up vibrationally and send ripples of happiness out into the world around you! If you smile at another person, not only will it make you feel better, it will mostly likely make the other person feel better as well! And when that person is feeling better, he/she will cause others to feel better, and so on, and so forth! I dare you to try this next time you're walking out and about in public- Make it a goal of smiling at no less than 20 people, and see how you feel after! It's easy! Think about it this way- It takes 20-something muscles to smile, but to frown it takes almost twice as many! It's actually easier to smile! :)

I'm a big-time nature girl, but currently live in a big, busy city. Even though I prefer more scenic, mellow environments, I choose to wear gratitude & love (and beauty) goggles. Even in the midst of people, concrete, loud noises and traffic, if I look close enough, I see that I'm really in the midst of a magical playground where everything in my path radiates beauty, joy or excitement in some way: The building off to the left has steam coming from the roof, but it has a beautiful red haze to it, on account of the big red sign below; the couple walking down the street smiling, laughing and completely engrossed in their conversation about politics or traveling or that time Dave drank half a bottle of Rum and then ate 12 hot dogs in a row (yikes!); the work of art hovering right above your head if you simply look, aka, the swirling pattern of white clouds that contrast so beautifully against the nuances of pink, purple and blue in the sky. When you live in the moment and open your eyes to the beauty around you, regardless of where you are, everything in the world feels magical and perfect.

When I walk down busy Bloor street to the local organic fruit market (which is 2 blocks away from my house! Cha-ching! Badda!), I see beautiful people all around me. I smile at almost everyone I come across which results in various reactions- Some smile back and others give befuddled looks like they're thinking, a) Do I know this chick? AND/OR, b) I wonder if she's on drugs?? Once I smiled at this beautiful woman walking towards me. She had the most gorgeous long, dark brown, silky hair. I stopped her and said, “Excuse me, I just have to tell you that you have absolutely gorgeous hair!” She looked at me with a funny smile and said, “Umm... I like men. Sorry.” I smiled, laughed and responded with, “Umm... so do I. I just thought I'd pay you a complement.” LOL! I guess she wasn't used to receiving complements from random women! Oh well. That's not always my experience. I complemented this random woman the other day who had ridiculously gorgeous eyes... WOW! I told her simply that and she responded with, “Thank-you! (*Smiling and laughing*) You are such a sweetheart! That's such a nice thing to say! You totally made my day!” I know a lot of attractive women who dislike complements from men about their physical appearance, mainly because they get it so often, but complements from other women are usually a lot more acceptable and welcoming. Personally, when a woman complements me, it puts a smile on my face. Even though it's simply an observation of my physical package, it's nice because I can feel their good intentions. I'm not insinuating that I don't feel good intentions from men- Many guys who complement me are genuine and simply want to pay a complement, but the experience is usually a bit different with men, as opposed to with straight women, for obvious reasons. ;)

Living in a big city you run into all sorts of interesting people. But I do notice, overall, that a lot of people walk around wearing extremely serious faces. It's an unfortunate thing to see so many beautiful people walking around with blank expressions or scowls on their faces. Have you ever seen one of those people who have what seems like a permafrown? It's the funniest thing! Well, maybe not the funniest thing, but it still cracks me up, especially when they look at me! It's like they're so absorbed in their worries or negative thinking that they're not even consciously aware that they're expressing it outwardly. It's written all over their face! Sometimes I'll walk by those people and wonder why they're so worried or angry. But I don't wonder too hard because I like to stay in vibrational harmony with my source, so I usually go back to smiling at people pretty quickly. =) Like I already mentioned, smiling is one of the easiest things you can do to raise your vibrational frequency, especially if you direct it at another person.

Our bodies are constantly generating patterns of electromagnetic fields of energy. When you're walking out and about, your movement is creating ripples of energy out into the world and mingling with the energy of everyone else. I feel that we essentially live in a divine matrix of energy. We are all a part of it, whether you want to admit it or not. When you're out and about in public, you are having an effect on everyone around you and everyone else is affecting you! Smiling with the intention of brightening someones day is probably more powerful than most of us realize. We are ALL emitting vibrational signals out into the Universe AT ALL TIMES, that attract like vibrations back to us!!! Many of you reading this are already familiar with The Law of Attraction, but I feel we can always use the reminder since life can distract us from time to time and suck us into thoughts of lower vibrations.

Every single thought you have is powerful- WE KNOW THIS- BUT, what numerous scientific experiments and studies have shown is that feeling and emotions are even more powerful!!! I read in some quantum physics book a while back that the electromagnetic fields around your heart reach anywhere from 100- 10 000 times farther than the fields around your brain! I don't remember exactly what book I read that in because I read so many books, but I remember that it was something profound like that! Since we're all connected, our EKG (heart) waves are constantly swimming with everyone elses EKG waves! And not only that, it's been established with double-blind scientific studies (that use EEG and EKG equipment) that, for example, when Person #1 is feeling love and directing it at Person #2, the EEG (brain) waves of Person #2 begin to attrain to the EKG (heart) waves of Person #1, who's sending that love! By smiling at another person with loving intention, you can quite literally influence the state of their mind! And you don't need to know anything about quantum physics or EKG/EEG Biofeedback Technology to experience this! I know that whenever someone smiles at me, especially a child, I experience an instant surge of joy on all levels! I'm sure you can relate!

Humans are the only organisms that use language to describe who, what, where, etc. we are in our planetary situation. All other organisms depend simply on reading the vibration. We're capable of reading the vibration, but most of us have been programmed to NOT listen to our feelings, but to make our decisions based on what other people tell us to do, or what we ourselves think is right based on our belief systems, aka. B.S.!!! But by denying our feelings, we lose one of the most important communication mechanisms that biology offers! Smiling is definitely an easy way to get us back into feeling good, but if you find yourself continually feeling unhappy, you need to ask yourself... well, why? Your feelings never lie. Just knowing that will allow you to give yourself permission to head back in the direction of what DOES feel good. If you're unhappy because you don't like your job or because a certain relationship isn't working out, you need to work toward moving away from those circumstances/ people and remember that happiness is your birthright! You are here to FEEL that light within, and allow it to glow and radiate out into the world!

Infinite beauty, love, power, creativity and wisdom are all contained within your temple (body). This infinite radiance within desires to shine outwards! It wants to express itself at all times! Choose thoughts, beliefs and activities that allow you to stay connected to who you are. Know that you can actually do anything you want in life! You make the rules! If you want to change something, you must be the change! That's what it comes down to I feel.

Anyway, that's enough rambling for today! If you're reading this right now, I hope you enjoyed my heart-felt ramblings! Oh, and just in case you're wondering, that adorable little girl with me in the photo above is Samantha. I worked as a live-out nanny a few years ago and she was one of the kids I looked after. We had quite the bond, as you can probably tell simply by looking at the photo! It was definitely easy for me to feel happy in the precence of such a pure and joyful being! Awww... I miss her!
