Have you ever wondered how other “more intelligent/creative/brilliant” people think? How did Einstein think or Aristotle devised his theories, how did Michelangelo visualize his work and how did Beethoven figure out what to compose?

How do some people unlock their potential while others just don’t?

By its very design, the human brain has limitless potential for learning, memory and creativity. The brain needs to be used and exercised in order to make best use of its potential. We each need to explore the power of thought on our own.

Several strategies can be used to assist in exploring your brain power. Read the rest of this entry »

Send healing balls…

BY: Diana Cooper

“The angels can work with your energy to make miracles happen. I love to make angel humming balls, which are very simple and very powerful, and it is a lovely exercise to do with a group. You make a ball of sound and color which you invite the angels to fill with their light.

If you know someone who feels lonely or has had a heartbreak, focus on the color pink and direct the angels of love to fill your ball with their compassion and love. Read the rest of this entry »

When non-Jews ask about Judaism, they commonly ask questions like: Do you believe in heaven and hell? In angels or the devil? What happens to the soul after death? What is the nature of G-d and the universe? The answers to questions like these define most religions; in fact, I have heard some people say that the purpose of religion is to answer these kinds of questions. Yet in Judaism, most of these cosmological issues are wide open to personal opinion. The areas of Jewish thought that most extensively discuss these issues, Kabbalah and Jewish mysticism, were traditionally not even taught to people until the age of 40, when they had completed their education in Torah and Talmud.

Royal blue candles are associated with happiness, inspiration, loyalty, group success, devotion, occult wisdom, protection and expansion, while dark blue candles assist with changeability, depression and impulsiveness.

Light blue candles symbolize truth, inspiration, wisdom, protection, good health, patience, tranquility, understanding, happiness, inner peace, fidelity, harmony and getting in contact with higher-self. Blue candles are aligned to the feminine principle in Nature.

I believe that a knowledgeable and balanced perspective is necessary in both our personal and work lives. This I have learnt the hard way – a focus on work led to me ignoring important parts of my personal life. I cannot take that back, but I have learnt to stop more frequently and to evalute where I am and what I am doing. Part of learning the discipline of perspective has been to expand my knowledge about life and the universe.

I also believe that when I consult with clients that I need to be able to offer the most that I can. To do that, I started studying all sorts of subjects. Right now, I am turning my attention to 2 things; Wicca and Life Coaching. Two opposing subjects, but I believe that both are necessary to expand my insight and understanding of the Universe.

I plan to start the life coaching journey towards the end of the year, but I’ll share what I have already learnt and continue to learn about the Universe.

Parshat Korach relates the story of Korach, Datan, Aviram and 250 members of the shevet (tribe) or Reuven challenging Moshe’s choice for Kohen Gadol (high priest). The end result was that the 250 members were burned by a heavenly fire, and the other 3 were miraculously swallowed by the earth. From a motive perspective, Korach makes the most sense, because he felt slighted for not having been chosen himself. But why would 250 people follow him to their certain death, with apparently little to gain?

The answer can be found in Rashi, the great medieval commentator, who writes that just as Korach’s family camped on the southern side of the Mishkan (Tabernacle), so did the tribe of Reuven. Rashi quotes the words of Chapters of the Fathers, “woe to an evil person, and woe to his neighbor.” The 250 people met their death simply because they were influenced by their neighbors (without so much as personal gain as a motivator)! This points to the awesome influence that friends, neighbors and associates have on us. So who do we surround ourselves with? Do we have positive friends and neighbors? Are WE positive friends and neighbors to others?
