Talk about a mind/body connection! Personally, I've recently done a personal "re-boot"— reinserting some old habits (good ones) back into my daily routine. An important one has to do with getting back to my TM (Transcendental Meditation) practice, even while I'm on the road. Just 20 minutes, first thing, while brewing (or going out for) my morning coffee. I can't believe the difference it makes in my day — I'm more focused, more present, and my choices are more conscious.

And who knew! — Research is showing that meditation helps reduce belly fat! Whoa...

I enjoyed watching Oprah's interview with Depak Chopra on her OWN network. Meeting up in India, she asks him, "Where to you go when you die?"

His response: "The moment you 'die' — you don't go anywhere. That's the moment that you fetch your thoughts, fetch your creativity, imagination, insight, intuition — you simply stop using the physical body for communication."

Here's a great example of the relevant and effective use of Remote Viewing, an exercise that I take apprentices through in the Illuminations Apprenticeship Program. This subject will also included in the curriculum for the online Intuition Advancement Series.

This was sent to me from an apprentice alumna:

In my earliest classes, I used to reference Ann Faraday's book, "The Dream Game," a wonderful primer for dream interpretation. Still a favorite quote: "Dreams represent the unconscious giving us back what the heart recorded, but the mind rationalized away."

Releasing "earthbound" souls has never been my forte. However, when clients ask me how to deal with unwanted energies, those existing on lower frequencies (outside my bandwidth)— my reply is always the same: "It all depends upon how you're occupying your own space!"

Sometimes I have a hard time detecting a certain spark in a client — a sense of wonder...passion...curiosity. Here's a great suggestion from an article in "O" Magazine by Lindsy Van Gelder. She suggests using a wonderful sort of mantra to "Cultivate Wonder!"

A handful of apprentice alumni were joining me in the online "meeting room" trials of the upcoming Intuition Advancement Series, beta testing new technology and various formats. One participant in this lively group informed me that she would have to miss one of our meetings. She was still a bit shaken following an incident involving thieves who'd stolen her car, purse and laptop.

I love gathering evidence that demonstrates the interconnectedness of all living things. These examples usually arrive unexpectedly, often surfacing in consultations, whether I’m meeting with the client in person or over the phone. Perhaps you’ve read the account of Tina the Tree Lady and The Flower Story.

Well, here comes another account, one that involves (of all things) — a pig!

It doesn't take a rocket scientist (or an intuitive) to know that za-zillion folks are getting all goose-bumpy this morning at the thought of winning the half-a-billion Mega Millions jackpot. What are the odds? Something like 1 in 176 million. Oh, yeah, we know all that...but still...

For myself, I'd start off by incorporating some wisdom that Elizabeth Gilbert shares in her article, Confessions of an Over-Giver.

Through the years, I've encountered clients who are incredulous that I'm able to do consultations over the phone. I'm simply merging with "non-local" Streaming Consciousness. When I lived in London for a few years, I had to play down the fact that I was actually reading clients from "across the Big Pond!"

The Contest ends on March 29th at 12:59pm! Winners will be announced on the Professional Facebook page the next day, followed by Louise's video response beginning on Friday/2nd.

I hope that some of you watched Jake on "60 Minutes" a couple of weeks ago. Many of us are starting to experience a blending of 3rd and 4th dimensional realities that is contributing to the incredible expansion of consciousness occurring in this lifetime.

Jake KNOWS that he pulls in his prodigious math info as "colors and shapes from the 4th dimension!"

Do try to watch the "entire interview!

I suppose that some of us are like the cats!— (ie, sensing a greater presence within ourselves!)

It's exciting for me to watch my clients and apprentices become increasingly aware of the difference between their own right and left-brain sensings. One apprentice works in the IT industry. He would call for his weekly phone session before leaving his office at the end of the day, when everyone else had gone home.

From Heart-Links: Here's an excerpt from the transcript of a consultation with a skeptic who became a believer — in her own words:

Again I felt doubtful, even though it felt right on. My mind kicked in with: “But anybody would in this situation...I wish she'd be more specific…”

L: “OK, that's what he's talking about; he's saying, "I'm there; I hear every word."
D: “I want to connect with him...”
L: “That's why he's doing this here today; he's giving you examples of when he's there and he's wanting to help you trust the feeling.”

Here are pages from Leonardo Da Vinci's To Do List!

I've personally re-resolved to resume my regular meditation practice! You'll find the author's conclusion very interesting:

(Here is the article in full).

"We live in an age that worships attention," says my friend (and Radiolab colleague) Jonah Lehrer. When we need to work, we force ourselves to concentrate. This approach can also inhibit the imagination. Sometimes, it helps to consider irrelevant information, to eavesdrop on all the stray associations unfolding in the far reaches of the brain."

That ability to let go, float free, does seem like an essential part of a creative mind, not just in giant ones. Those of us who make our livings closer to the ground, have to do it too. In his forthcoming book, (coming to bookstores this Spring) Jonah mentions a study by Dr. Holly White, then at the University of Memphis, and her colleague Priti Shah, of the University of Michigan.

“Well, first we’ll say we really appreciate your disrespectful word of croaking, we like it very much, because there is no such thing as death….

So, let’s get this straight in your mind. So what happens when some beautifully connected, physically focused human Being transcends into Nonphysical? In other words, lies on the pillow as you’re describing, and goes to sleep, and wakes up in the Nonphysical dimension and does not wake up in this dimension? What has happened?
