Instruction: The Waking Gratitude Exercise

You may recall Dr. Joe Dispenza's ground breaking discussion in "What the Bleep do we Know" regarding his morning "wake-up" ritual of programming his day? You may also recall Lisa Nichol's segment in "the Secret" where she discussed the "Attitude of Gratitude?"

I have been personally using and prescribing a combination of these teachings in the form of what I am calling the "Waking Gratitude Exercise." Here is how it works:

In the morning, in that moment in which you are aware that you have awakened, but before you first open your eyes; say "Good Morning" to God. Next, begin thanking God for anything and everything that comes to mind. For example:

"Good Morning God (Lord, Creator, Father, Mother), Thank-you for this wake-up. Thank-you for a warm bed to sleep in. Thank-you for my pillow, for my blankets, for my bedroom. Thank-you for the sunlight. Thank-you for the birds chirping their song of praise. Thank-you for peace in the land. Thank-you for the hot running water I will use today. Thank-you for the food I will consume today. Thank-you for my partner (family, pet, etc.). Thank-you, Thank-you, Thank-you!"

After you have mentioned all that you are grateful for, say a prayer for blessing and opportunity for your day:

"Dear God, Please bless this day you have offered to me. Guide me in spirit and in truth. Open the doors you would have me walk through, and close the one's that will take me where I do not wish to go. Watch over me as I seek to do your work here on earth. Please cross my path with those to whom I can be of service, and those who will be my teachers. Sanctify this day to the service of the greater good of all Creation. AMEN"

This process can be completed in a little over 5 minutes, and yet it could be the most powerful part of your entire day. The power of gratitude is now a scientifically proven reality, and the mystics have been teaching it for millenia.

However, trust me when I tell you that learning to do this consistently is going to be very challenging. We often awaken with troubled minds that are anxious about our plans for the day ahead. I URGE you to train yourself, via a conscious intention of the will, to engage this practice each and every morning. If you do, it can transform your life!

Research shows that it takes 21 days to build a habit, so for the next 21 days do yourself and all of us a favor, and discipline your mind and spirit to practice the "Waking Gratitude Exercise" on every wake-up. Then let it begin to carry over into every waking moment.

Thank-you for taking the time to read this post, and thank-you for your continued commitment to becoming a "new creation" capable of rendering our world a "New Creation."

Reflection: The Current State of Affairs, Conspiracy Theory, and a Path Moving Forward

2K10 is upon us!

Will it be another year of "whatever," or will this be the year that we begin to realize that we are no longer bound by the parameters and limitations we once accepted as the standard norm? Will we "wake up" this year, or will we choose to remain in the deadly slumber that has befallen us?

I open this reflection in this direct and "care"-frontational manner for a purpose.

I have encountered information that has convinced me that we are running out of time. The current (de)evolutionary trends of humanity are not carrying us in the direction of enlightenment and prosperity, but are instead walking us towards the very real possibility of ultimate delusion and destruction.

We continue to kill one another on a moment- to-moment basis. The Earth's resources continue to be depleted in grossly eratic and un-enlightned ways. Many people are growing in greed and are amassing great wealth, while an entirely different segment of the population perishes for lack of food and even the most basic medical care. The list goes on and on.

And yet, even with multiple voices sounding the alarm, the larger part of humanity remains captive to various segments of this "grand delusion" that seeks to assure them that "all is well." Here we must ask an even more direct question: Is this really a matter of delusion, or is it the result of a more sinister choice? A choice that chooses to ignore or suppress these truths in order that one's personal dynasty and legacy might continue? A choice that labels some as worthy and others as un-worthy, and takes upon itself the powers of God to decide who will and will not be granted life, and if granted life, how much potential that life may be permitted to realize?

I assure you that there are indeed those who are quite aware of what is taking place, and who have chosen to particpate in a manner that has secured them with great wealth, power, and prestige at the expense of every starving child and homeless beggar on earth. These are they who believe they are in control, and who laugh at those who follow blindly the myth of materialism, the deceptions of advertising, and the "gift" of credit (By the way, the credit bubble has burst).

And here is what happens next: Those who stand to lose from humanity finally "getting it" will say, "Dr. Mik has lost his marbles. He has "gone off the deep end" and joined the conspiriacy theory "yahoos."" William S. Burroughs once said that "a paranoiac is simply someone who knows what is really going on." Let us not buy in to the tactic the "powers that be" utilize in order to discredit those who have penetrated their boardrooms, country-clubs, and fraternal organizations and can now expose them for who and what they truly are.

But enough of the negative! I am convinced that our task is not so much to engage in the smokescreen of direct confontation with these entities. Our energies are best invested in assisting each and every soul on earth to a place of understanding and realization regarding the true plan for humanity: that it survive and thrive in the beauty of creation and the wonder of Our Creator's provision and love.

When enough people's eyes have been opened, change will unfold, and accountability will be demanded (more positive news: this is already underway!)

If we are to accomplish this, then we must embark upon the greatest advertising campaign in the history of the human race. We must begin to "everywhere and always" speak and model the truth that the world needs to hear and practice. We must do so tirelessly, and with great perserverence. There will be forces that will seek to silence the message, and many who remain trapped in the comfort and safety of old paradigms will ardently resist.

Not to worry, the Christian tradition reminds us that "greater is He that is in us, than he that is in the world." Those who stand for Light and Love will not be forgotten. Besides, what could be more important in life than working for the rescue and ultimate salvation of humanity?

I close with a quote from the Jewish tradition: "As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord (and serving the Lord means serving humanity)!"
