When You Don’t Feel Good……. 

What do you do?
The body is a barometer of what is needed physiologically and emotionally.
The mind is an indicator of what we believe and think and judge.
The emotions are an expression of our response to our thoughts.

Which comes first or second is not so important as how we manage them all.
I am not my body. I have a body to wear for this human experience.
I am not my mind. I have a mind (computer) with which to think, remember, imagine and evaluate.
I am not my emotions. I have feeling with which I can recognize the energy flow of my experience.

If I am not my body, mind and emotions, what am I?
I am the spirit, the creator, the decision maker behind the scenes.
I am the chooser, the responder, the willing One who can play victim or Creator.
I can believe I am at the effect of my body, mind and emotions or I can take responsibility.

When my body doesn’t feel good, I can have a loving response or a fearful reaction.
I can treat my body as does a loving mother or I can be frightened by its apparent symptoms.
I can have my list of home remedies designed to bring comfort and rest (inner peace is healing) or I can add all my learned fearful reactions and add to my mental and physical stress.
I can surrender to God and only Goodness, Wholeness and Love and respond with assurance and peace.

When my mind thinks crazy, unhappy or upsetting thoughts, I can buy into them or change them.
I can treat the fearful learned  beliefs of the world with seriousness and defensiveness or…..
I can forgive and erase the thoughts and the thinker behind the thoughts.
I can choose again to affirm that which I choose to hold in my mind and imagination.

When my emotions appear to be less that open and flowing, with frustration or fear, I can recognize the blocks to the flow of life energy.
When I feel bad or sad or mad, I can choose again for the feelings that make me feel glad.
When I have lost the willingness to change my emotions, I can seek for the idea that is holding me hostage and release that thought with one that is more helpful and kind.

I am the chooser.
I can choose judgment or forgiveness.
I can respond with fear or love.
I can be upset or peaceful.

When I don’t feel good, I am patient and kind.
I am respectful and responsive.
I am open and willing.
I am forgiving and listen within to choose again.

I am loving you everyday, because Love is my natural State and yours as well,

Home Again 

Can you imagine being at home wherever you go?
Can you get in touch with what would make that so?
Do you feel safe and at peace when you travel?
Do you give yourself loving and happy thoughts throughout the day?

I notice that familiarity is helpful because I know I will have what I need to prepare a meal or sit and read.
I notice that when changes occur, it is helpful to have some anchoring familiar stuff.
Regular routine, usual foods, taking time to appreciate, or just writing these loving reminders every day.
In the ever-changing world, there is a call for anchors, safe havens and home base.

When we are traveling from home to work, on vacation, changing habits or moving, it is essential to our inner peace to find a rhythm or comfort zone in which to rest or return when storms appear.
Where do you go when you are in doubt or questioning?
What do you do when your body needs a rest and renewal break from daily stresses?
How do you eat and sleep when you are traveling or in unfamiliar circumstances?

More than we know, we are creatures of habit who need some habits so we can simply flow.
More than we see, with the multidimensional world of kaleidoscopic changes, we need some stability.
More that we care, we have need of safe havens, sanctuaries, places of refuge and renewal.
Life asks much of us physically, mentally, spiritually and in all our relationships, so take the time.

Give yourself quiet time.
Give yourself methods of getting centered and grounded.
Establish habits and routines which are both stabilizing and natural.
Trust your own unique needs for  the familiar and comfortable.

I love to travel.
I love to come home.
I love to create diversity.
I love routine and schedule.

My life works because I create a balance that works for me.
When there is too much happening, I need to slow down and be comfortable.
When there is too little going on, I need activity and diversity to wake me up.
Do what you need to do to give yourself what is highest and best for you.

I am loving you and so glad to be home.

And already packing light for our trip to Australia in three weeks!
Loving you and me as we make our sacred journey through life as fun, safe and easy as can be!

Giving Love Is Living Love 

Spirit Self = authentic natural trusting and free Self
Life is for Giving!
You are the Gift!
When you are giving your self fully and freely, there is a realization of the infinite gifts of Love within.

Your natural innocent Self is pure energy, free flowing Love, being given and received effortlessly.
In the flow of life, when you know Love is your natural state, anything unlike love is an error.
When we remember being Love, we experience that Joy and Peace and Abundance are natural as well.
The Joy of life is truly being fully Who We are with no withholds, fear or regret.

Ego self = false learned fearful self
Life is for Getting!
You are not enough.
You need another to give you the love you need, because without another’s love you are not complete.

Love is letting go of fear.
Love is trusting that there is endless Love within.
Love is freeing oneself to simply live in a naturally loving state.
Love is giving all you are to all.

Giving love is giving not with things or sacrifice, but with a natural flow of what is eternal.
Giving Love is extending peace.
Giving Love is sharing happiness.
Giving Love is trusting in the natural flow of life.

Giving Love is not a barter to be measured and evaluated.
Giving Love is not a score to be compared with what others may give and receive.
Giving Love is not an out-picturing of our past in an effort to recreate or avoid what was.
Giving Love is not an endless give away to those who have less to fill the emptying bucket.

Giving Love is living.
Giving Love is as natural as breathing.
Giving Love is responding to whatever comes in the natural way.
Giving Love is listening within to give whatever will be truly helpful.

Giving Love is our holy healing purpose.
Giving Love is contributing with gratitude.
Giving Love is awakening to each new day with full appreciation.
Giving Love is honoring everyone you meet along life’s way.

When we are feeling bereft and needy, we look for someone externally to fill our cup.
But always we need only to prime the pump, by allowing a little to flow in before we can give again.
When we have given away what we have, and need to get to give again, we were mistaken.
Giving must be received by the giver, so there is no “giving away”, sacrifice or martydom.

When we recognize, all that we give is a gift to ourselves, there will be no loss.
When we remember, we are merely flowing from the infinite resource within, we will never be empty.
When we offer that which we have, we receive ever more to be shared.
When we live a life of loving, there is pure joy everyday.

Loving you and me as One, 

Betty Lue

What is Bugging You? 

“A mote in your eye?”
“ Thorn in your side?”
“A growth needing removal?”
“A tooth causing pain?”

Signs of condemnation or a fearful unforgiven place in your psyche?
Everything is connected to everything in the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual realm.
All that we hold as pain and problem will be manifest in some form until we take full responsibility.
Being “able to respond” in a loving and healing way heals the pain and the apparent problem.

Through my own experience, just now, I have asked what is the experience I am having?
I have chosen to listen both on the surface as to how to respond with conscious healing?
I have asked and listened deeply to be able to share with you as to the most conscious response.
Everything is connected to everything, with it all being an “on purpose” to wake up to what is.

With ordinary victimization consciousness, we fall prey to believing life happens to us.
In the world of form, we tend to take notice when there is an obstacle in the road of life.
As a being with a body, we often don’t pay attention until we have physical or financial pain.
And when we seek to get love, it is the lack of love that we notice.

It is the absence of wholeness or disease that we seem to value with our energy.
It is the tiniest interruption of our life energy flow that bugs us.
It is the momentary experience of pain that causes us to stop and think scary stuff.
It is the on tenth of one percent of our aliveness that seems to draw us into “FEAR”.

The stories we tell about our problems beget more stories and more problems.
The mistakes we make, our failings and our faults become the issue of our concerns.
The history we hold of our downfalls, struggles and hardships become our badge of courage.
The myth we carry that our lack, littleness and limitation comes from the lessons we need to learn.

It is time to put away these childish notions.
It is time to stop belittling our value and our potential.
It is time to forgive the errant teachings of our history.
It is time to take responsibility for our Power and Greatness.

How do we  undo what has never been true?
How do we stop pretending we are mistaken?
How do we own our wholeness and Goodness?
How do we step up and live our Truth?

Step out of our spiritual laziness.
Undo the truths of past generations.
Stop guilt and blame, all judgment of any kind.
Take the spiritual laxative of massive forgiveness.

Practice the 30 day diet for enlightenment below.
Consider continuing all day everyday.
Be responsible for it all by responding with awareness and Love.
You can change your life right now.

Loving you,  

Betty Lue

In Paradise? 

Wherever we are can be heaven or hell.
Whatever we experience is our choice.
However we believe is what we perceive.
Whomever we meet can be a holy encounter.

Yes, Hawaii is where we are now, on the Big Island of Hawaii.
Almost every year we bring a retreat group here to our Kona Coast condo.
The retreatants have departed and we have a few days without guests.
We can take some time to be still, listen and observe.

Why here? What about now? What have we learned?
Here in Hawaii, there are minimal distractions.
There are no complaints when you step into a warm, friendly happy place.
People can bring their past complaints and fears with them, if they wish.

With no place to go and nothing to do, there are only the thoughts we bring with us.
With freedom from schedule and obligation, there is the invitation to be honest with ourselves.
With everyone loving and no approval to seek, we simply are called to be true to oneself.
With life new each moment and freedom at hand, each day is a gift of love and  pure joy.

Paradise is found in freedom from fear.
Paradise is the place of perfect trust.
Paradise is the land of true love.
Paradise is wherever we live and give only gratitude and love.

Sometimes we fall in love to remember.
Sometimes we travel to beautiful places to remember.
Sometimes we experience a miracle to remember.
Sometimes we forgive the past to remember.

It is truly our choice to live in paradise or with struggle and sacrifice.
It is our decision to make, whether heaven or hell.
It is our experience we create with visions of happiness or pain.
It is our life to lead in openness and appreciation or contraction and judgment.

What a powerful place of realization…..to know I hold the key.
What a wonderful opportunity to be responsible….to choose paradise for me.
What a delightful movie to be created……tragedy, drama, comedy or enlightenment documentary.
What a grateful life in paradise for all to see.

Forgive, erase and release.
Choose again for today is yours.

Purpose for Being 

When we discover our inner motivation for being here, it is far easier to make choices that support our being.
Three generalized possibilities:
When we know this lifetime is to serve our own growth and development, we choose support.
When we know we are here to explore intimacy and companionship, we choose deep connection.
When we know we are here to contribute to the betterment of others, we choose service.

Each of us has our own focus and instinctual motivation which inspires us in certain directions.
When we are fulfilling our parents’ or societal expectations or desires, we mistakenly choose their path.
When we forgive external guidance and allow ourselves to listen within, we find our true purpose.
When we listen within and trust, honor and respect our path and purpose, life becomes clear and conscious.

To come to the realization of what our true purpose is frees us to choose the lifestyle, people and opportunities that support our integrity.
To know our purpose and live at odds is a waste of energy, a source of dissatisfaction and self denial.
To live our purpose fully and freely, renders us clear, energized, happy and super effective.
To discover our passion and purpose is like realigning with our own unique High Way.

Life can be fun, safe and easy only when we drop our distractions, detours, disappointments and delays.
We let go of our complaints and victimization when we are willing to take full responsibility for our choices.
We free ourselves to choose again when we hold no judgments, no guilt or blame, for making mistakes.
We love, trust and respect ourselves and our lives when we live on purpose with integrity.

So this is your work and mine.
Discover the Piece of God You Are.
Explore the Purpose or calling for which you have volunteered.
Follow the Path that supports your purposeful calling.

There is no hardship or difficulty in doing what God in you has appointed you Truth.
Take time to undo everything that is less than whole and Loving and trust what remain.
Life is simple and straightforward.
Humanity has created the complexity and crookedness.

Be still and see what your life really has been about.
What really matters to you in everyone encounter?
What really matters to you in how you spend your time?
What really matters to you in the way to live and love and give?

Once we determine our Higher Purpose in Being Here Now, we must eliminate the contradictions.
Where there are conflicting interests, it is difficult to be focused and successful.
Where there is confusion within, we cannot discern the inner voice.
Where there is laziness and lack of consciousness, we do not see the turn in the road.

Give your life your very best.
Assume nothing and be aware of everything.
Appreciate every choice and within it you will see its value.
Trust and respect you all along the way and your will be trusted and respected.

Life is your sacred journey.
Pay attention and Appreciate the Beauty and Goodness along the way.
Betty Lue
