~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~* 1. Welcome ~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~* Dear Friends – My new e-course Dear God: Send Money” was released only three weeks ago and I’m already hearing from some of you who are seeing a turn-around in your financial situation. I love reading about those success stories! If you’d like more information, or to sign up yourself, go to this page Dear God: Send Money” I’ve also provided some details in section 4 below. This month’s issue is about life transitions. Love them or hate them, we all experience them! I’m in the midst of one myself. I find myself wanting to fall back into what I think of as my “default style.” For me, it’s always been about taking action and setting goals. Yet, I have to acknowledge that’s not working this time. I’ve decided to embrace the fact that life is changing. I’m simply going to have fun and go along with it instead of fighting it or trying to change it back to what it was. I feel a bit like a trapeze artist flying between the bars. I’ve let go of one thing and it’s a little scary to trust I’ll get to the next stage! In January I made a list of fun things I like to do. There are a few big ones, like the cruise to Belize and Mexico I took last month.* However, most of the items are small things like reading more mystery novels and taking time for coffee with friends. Hey! I just might enjoy this transition after all! Stay tuned! In gratitude, Lynn * If you check out my Gut Trusters blog you’ll see a few pictures from my trip. ~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~* 2. Wisdom Quotes ~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~* Life's up and downs provide windows of opportunity to determine... [your] values and goals...Think of using all obstacles as stepping stones to build the life you want. --Marsha Sinetar If you have great ambition, take as big a step as possible in the direction of fulfilling it. The step may only be a tiny one, but trust that it may be the largest one possible for now. --Mildred Mcafee. A smooth sea never made a skillful mariner. --English Proverb We all have angels guiding us… They look after us. They heal us, touch us, comfort us with invisible warm hands… What will bring their help? Asking. Giving thanks. --Sophy Burnham You want to speak out and sometimes strike out to make things happen, but don't forget, God works from the inside out. You must first look within yourself to eliminate the fear, the anger, the imbalance in your mind and life. Then, and only then, can you move forward peacefully and powerfully to make the changes needed in the world. --Iyanla Vanzant ~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~* 3.

I’ve decided to write a thirty-week e-course on the topic. I’ve always been fascinated by the fact that some people seem to create abundance and success in their lives and others seem to experience only failure and poverty. Is it fate? Are there a lucky few who are destined to have money, fame and fortune? I’m writing this course because I believe each of us has been given all the resources we need to accomplish the mission we came here to fulfill. We learn to create abundance in our lives and in our world through the power of our thoughts and the connection of our Spirit. Many of us have not only forgotten our life purpose, we have also forgotten how to use the tools that forge the path to prosperity, success, love and health. In the “Dear God: Send Money” thirty-week course you’ll find tools, exercises, inspirational quotes and techniques to help you create financial as well as spiritual abundance.

When Your Life Turns Upside Down ~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~* Between letting go (of the old) and successfully launching the new there is a time of confusion and emptiness. People often feel lost during this time, and too often they interpret that lostness as yet another sign that something is wrong. It is simply a sign that they have entered the fertile chaos of the neutral zone -- William Bridges I don't know too many people who love to go through a life transition. About 90% of the calls I receive for intuitive consultations are from people who are contemplating a career change, beginning or ending a relationship, or are coping with a tangible or intangible loss of some kind in their life. I frequently hear people telling me that they're "stuck" or "in a rut" and yet most are in that limbo state called transition. It often feels like being lost in the woods. There seem to be no obvious markers that say, "this way to safety." If you look up the word "transition" in the dictionary, you'll see definitions like "passing from one to another," "transformation," a "passage," "major change," "shift" and "development." Even though you may feel stuck, these are words that indicate movement and change. Sometimes it seems there is no apparent progress towards your hopes and dreams. You feel scared that you're falling apart and might be in this "no place" forever. You may feel stuck, and yet often it’s that uncomfortable shift from one place in your life to the next where the most growth occurs. When I'm in this transition zone and fear that nothing is happening, I find comfort in the example of tulips. You plant them in the fall and they come up in the spring. In the intervening months, there appears to be nothing going on. You wouldn't think of digging them up in the middle of winter and yelling at them that they're "stuck" and admonishing them to "grow faster!" They are doing exactly what they need to do. And when all the circumstances needed for their flowering are in the right place, they appear and bloom. The same is true for your transitions. The wisdom that guides the flowers guides your life as well. Everyone experiences transition many times during the course of a lifetime. It feels unpleasant because it requires that you let go of the known, the familiar, what you've come to think of as safe. You know where you've been but you don't know where you're headed. Many people deal with this discomfort by trying to go back to the old. It's like trying to stuff the toothpaste back in the tube. You want the old job back or you attempt to re-establish a relationship that is no longer viable. When you feel bored, restless, or out-of-sorts, it's a call from your intuition that it's time for a change. You call on your Higher Power to help you and it responds with encouragement to release the old to make room for the new. We hear of people trying to "cope" with change. That word implies struggle. If at all possible try to embrace change. Author Margaret Drabble wrote, "When nothing is sure, everything is possible." The fact that you're uncomfortable doesn't mean you're doing something wrong. It just means that change is happening and you - like most people - feel anxious when it occurs. This transition zone can be a very creative time. Your life is up in the air, but anything and everything is possible. The Universe is helping you move the old, resistant places in yourself to allow something new, fresh and invigorating to take its place. I've found that, as difficult as it is, the most helpful attitude is to embrace the transition. The one true thing about transitions is that they have an end. You will land on solid ground once more. It will just be in a different place than you've ever been before. There's an old saying, "When everything is breaking up, something new is breaking through." Times of transition are a study in contradiction. At the point you want to rail at the Universe for causing this change in your life, you also need to trust the wisdom of this same Force to bring about the transformation you need. Intuition is extremely helpful in transition, as it will point the way to the path that will take you to your new life. However, it's also challenging to attempt to find a balance between taking time to listen to your intuition, and taking action to put your inner guidance into motion. Victor Hugo said this well, "Have courage for the great sorrows of life, and patience for the small ones; and when you have laboriously accomplished your daily task, go to sleep in peace. God is awake." ~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~* 6. “Gut Trusters” Blog! ~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~* I have a blog!
