Messages from Lillian Too

This week’s messages are with inspirations from Lillian Too, one of the best selling authors on Feng-Shui. Although I will write about Feng-Shui in the coming weeks, this time the messages are about life in general. You can use these messages as meditations and sit quietly with or without some instrumental music to listen to your inner thoughts and feelings that come up when you think about these suggestions and questions.

Let’s get started …

Week 1

Monday: April 2nd
Just let go…
When things get too much, just let go. Releasing is sometimes the best way to cope with life’s pressures. You do not have to be strong all the time, determined all the time, empowered all the time. Don’t let these ‘achievement’ gurus fool you. They too must have stopped many times along the way before they accomplished their own successes.

Tuesday: April 3rd
Four types of prayers…
You can be the judge as to which is the most powerful! First there is the prayer for wealth and success in this life. Second is the prayer for a good rebirth in the next life. Third is the prayer for total freedom from rebirth altogether, what they describe as liberation from samsara, and finally there is the prayer for enlightenment to benefit all other beings, the ultimate state of permanent happiness. Reflect on this and make your own judgment.

Wednesday: April 4th
Today open yourself to new ideas. Let your imagination take you to places. Dream; imagine; let yourself free to wander.

Thursday: April 5th
If you are feeling inadequate today for what ever reason, remember neither you nor anyone else is perfect in this world. Yet, we are great as we are. Please give up on giving yourself a hard time every time a personal crisis of confidence comes up.

Friday: April 6th
Whenever you feel down, think of sunny days. Or if the sun is out, you also go out and feel the sun on your face, on your skin.

Saturday: April 7th
Good always triumphs over evil. Deep in everything lays goodness. Be certain that light always wins over darkness.

Sunday: April 8th
Go with the flow. This does not mean do not work or try what is diffucult. Yet, if something is not working for you over and over again, it may be wise to look if there is another way that you may follow. You do not have to change your goal, just the road that will get you there.

Week 2

Monday: April 9th
What does your life mean to you? Why be sad when you can be happy? Why feel poor when you can feel rich? Why hesitate and hold back when you can move forward and on? Flow with life itself. Allow new ideas to come into your life.

Tuesday: April 10th
Be aware that you are fortunate to be alive today. If you accept that you have good luck, you will attract good like. The energy laws of the universe assure that we get what we believe is true. Our mind has amazing powers to actualize what we believe to be true.

Wednesday: April 11th
Pets provide strong life energy for us. They remind us that there are other realms of existence. Pets enhance the energy of our houses and apartments.

Thursday: April 12th
To shake off negative energy such as anger, hurt, or worry, just write them down on a piece of paper and burn them. Some people prefer to tear it or flush it down the toilet. Do as you choose, but get those feelings out of your system. Visualize that everything that makes you upset is leaving your life and making you feel fresh, new and energized.

Friday: April 13th
Do you believe in Magic? The more we believe in magic, the more it seems to manifest in front of our eyes.
Tune into others and you will see miracles…

Saturday: April 14th
Which of the seven planets appeal to you the most? What is your zodiac sign? Are you more attracted to one planet than others? Does it differ from the main planet of your zodiac sign? The seven planets according to some correspond to our seven chakras – the seven energy gates of our energy field that surrounds our body. Planets may tell things about us. Reflect on these questions and note the answers that come to you. Although they may not make sense at the moment, they may provide helpful information in the future.

Sunday: April 15th
There are no friends and no enemies. Remember that all is one. And all is love. If you are in a state that you are not able to feel the love, just be aware that you have let your energies down.

***

I share with you the things that we can do when our energies are down. As soon as you realize that you energy is down or slipping, take a shower or a bath. Listen to some uplifting music; take a walk or a swim. And if repetitive negative thoughts are coming to your mind, write them down, get them out of your system. You might want to burn or throw away what you have written if it makes you feel better.

Wish you luck and love, and all that your heart desires.
Z.
