more about the power of words

[Guest guest]

Words SO have weight. Or Lightness. Your subconscious mind hears

everything you say. This means you body hears everything you say,

and so does your deep emotional self, which lives in every cell of

your body...

This is especially true when you are not paying attention. Just

waking up, zoning out, in a hurry, driving your car, or getting

sleepy at the end of the day. Or very very open and yet not

maintaining some sort of observing presence at the same time. Any

time you're very open the words go deeper and tend to lodge.

So, be especially mindful of how you talk to yourself when you are

in these hypnogogic states.

Since we are all part of a whole, what we say, or even say as we

subvocalize, think words to ourselves...influences the state of all

that we are as a human family.

So, if you speak kindly to yourself or to another person, you lift

up the collective vibration with your words.

May you speak sweetly today, words of comfort, of praise, of good

humor, of kindness. And may these healing words bring light and love

into your heart and the heart of all humanity.

You might experiment with singing words. When I was a kid, I used to

sing sacred music in a choir. Later, as a yogi and meditator and

meditation teacher, I sang Sanskrit chants. The music opened me up

and the words anchored Beauty, Peace and Love in my being.

This week's homework assignment from Rob Bregzny (Freewill Astroloy

on myspace) is to sing a rousing song every day for a week and

report back to him the outcome. What an amazing idea! I'm looking

forward to reading some of his collected comments.

Suggestion on how to develop the habit of Communicating from the

heart: Read " Nonviolent Communication " by Marshall Rosenburg.
