Claim Your Destiny

It Is Never Too Late to Claim Your Destiny

From your times of childhood dreams and desires, a sense of destiny may have teased your mind.

Throughout your life, you may have argued with yourself to put aside those thoughts of destiny, telling yourself that, “life is what happens to you.” I believe the rest of that statement is, “while you are making other plans.”

Indeed, a great deal happens in life! If you simply expected life to lead your destiny it may seem fulfilling that sense of destiny was possible when you dared to dream.

But then life happened. You made choices that didn’t work out the way you planned. You made mistakes. You began to no longer trust yourself, or more seriously to trust your life to lead you to your destiny. You may have lost hope, become discouraged, become complacent, or even contented.

What do you feel it is that keeps holding you back?
Is it the things that people have said you are not good at?
Is it something people have told you that you lack?
Is it a personal characteristic or physical trait that you are subconscious of?
– Claim Your Destiny by Sugar Ray Destin, Jr.

After all, you may have thought and reasoned, those were childhood dreams, childhood images, and you are now an adult. You have put away childish things. Life, you thought, is what is happening, good or bad, positive or negative, it is what is real. Dreams, and certainly dreams or a sense of destiny guiding and even directing you, are not really real.

Yet for some strange reason, in the quiet recesses of your mind, in the undirected and undisciplined mind chatter, you find fragments of those childhood dreams and that sense of destiny compelling you, and you may find a bittersweet tear in your eye as you smile and morn the dream that has never manifested in your life.

You may conclude that it is too late for your life to change. You may think that the die has been cast. If you believe in such things, you may even sigh and say, “well, maybe next life.”

As I am meditating and pondering on destiny, I am aware that as long as there is life, there is hope.
– Genevieve Gerard

I am reminded of the powerful and impersonal law of the Universe that “energy follows thought.” And I am aware that the sense of destiny that formed so many childhood fantasies and dreams is so often the initial contact of your Soul revealing to you your life’s purpose.

As I write these words and go deeper into these thoughts of my mind and of my Soul, about destiny, I am reminded that within these childhood daydreams there may be, for many, a first contact and subtle connection with an Angel, an Angel who foretold or forecast about your future and destiny.

A journey of 1000 miles begins with a single step.
– Lao Tzu

As I ponder and consider destiny and Soul purpose, I am reminded that it is never too late to fulfill your Soul purpose. I ask you to stop and pause and take a few moments to dream and remember what you once dared to think and dream about your life and about your purpose before you made the compromises or accepted the limiting beliefs that structure your reality today.

I ask you to pause to ask yourself when and why you left your dreams and your sense of destiny behind.

I ask you to meditate upon and consider what you feel your Soul is directing you toward. I invite you to “calm your mind, open your heart, and invite the Light.”

As you do this, I encourage you to open your mind and your heart to new possibilities.

I invite you to open to and consider new opportunities.

I ask you to imagine any limiting beliefs falling away from you and gathering around your feet like old used and dirty clothes. As they lie there on the ground imagine the breeze of an Angel stirring them, as they gather into scraps of flotsam and jetsam and form into a white bird as they take wing and fly away across a clear blue sky until they have flown out of site and are no longer in the field of your thoughts.

I invite and encourage you to, with a calm mind and open heart, invite into your awareness the Light of your Soul and let it spark your intuition and inspiration to reaffirm and align your life with your Soul purpose no matter what the situation or circumstances in which you currently find yourself, right here, right now, today.

I ask you to consciously invite your Soul to claim your destiny and align you will with your Soul purpose as you affirm and confirm with the words of power:

Purpose Itself Am I

I invite you to do the following guided visualization and claim your destiny today.

Aligning & Igniting with Your Soul Purpose

Take a moment to decide that you desire to live out the balance of your days aligning with and fulfilling your destiny.

Gather your journal and sit and quietly let your mind drop your everyday focus. Let yourself dream. Let your imagination be free.

Take in a very deep and relaxing breath and let your body surrender to the support of your chair, realizing you are being supported by the chair, which is supported by the floor, which is supported by the earth. This support is available to you through the Law of Gravity and is part of the support you receive as a child of God. It is one of many natural laws that are available to help you manifest your dreams.

Take in another deep breath imagining you are, with that breath, inviting the Light of your Soul to ignite your intuition and enflame your inspiration.

For a brief span of moments, suspend judgments and relax your logical mind. Release with a deep and relaxing breath all criticism of yourself. Let blame go. Let yourself just be and let your mind be free.

Continue drawing in deep, relaxing, and fulfilling breaths, as you, with each exhale, release any fears that may emerge or any thoughts that may be discouraging as you simply draw upon the resources of your Higher Self (your Soul) to empower your life.

Take the time to build a pathway of Light from the top of your head to your heart. Imagine that Light is infused and ignited by a Light above your head that glows with the radiance of your Soul. As you breathe in, imagine that Light igniting and inspiring your imagination. See that Light stimulating your creativity.

With your exhale as you release your breath, consciously and with intention put the past behind you. As you do this, realize you are releasing old bonds that have held you. Let them go!

Now, as you draw in a new breath, bring with it from the unlimited abundance of the force of life itself all that you need to manifest in your life your destiny.

Bring the energy deep into your heart and ponder on and consider what truly is your heart’s desire. Imagine that desire expanding the breadth and reach of your heart.

For a cycle to 3 or more breaths, let your energy circulate and stimulate the path from your Soul to the top of your head and then to your heart. As you sit with that circulation, allow your energy to continue to release self-criticism and judgment and let yourself absorb and enjoy the free flow of freedom that inspires and ignites your creativity.

This moment, this meditation offers you new opportunities. And since you have released the past and entered into the present, you are standing on a threshold of possibilities that have never been before. The energy of this moment, this Now is new. Claim it. Create with it what is your Soul purpose, what is your life purpose, what you now dare to dream, and only in the NOW dare to do.

Sit quietly and calmly merely breathing in and breathing out allowing and accepting the wisdom of your Soul to infuse you until you feel ready to return to the requirements and routines of your life assured that there are new possibilities and new opportunities that you can claim and incorporate into your life as you move forward.

Before you leave this experience behind, please take a few moments to record the thoughts you have had, the ideas that have emerged from the chatter of your mind, aware that within them may well be the wisdom of your Soul and the guiding whisper of your Angels.

Last, offer gratitude and appreciation for your experience in this mediation and then go forth and consider all the ideas and impressions you have received.

Let Your Dream Grow

Your destiny does not always reveal itself overnight. Don’t expect to make one significant change in your life and see the results the next day. These insights into your destiny and the actions you take in life take time. You have to let your Soul do its work and you also have to let the universe do its thing. Just remember, today is truly the first day of the rest of your life.

Namaste,

Genevieve

The Power You Unleash When You Dream

Genevieve Gerard

The Power You Unleash When You Dream

As the calendar of time shifts from one year to the next the magic of creation is released into the world.

It is a magic you can use to empower your life.

It is by daring to dream that you unleash this magic.

It is by daring to dream that you can explore new possibilities and transform your life.

Your life has a purpose. There is a reason for your life, a reason held deep within the mystery of time itself.

Every experience you have had in your life, positive and negative has brought you to this moment in the annals of time. Every success you have had or mistake from which you have learned prepared you for NOW.

When you pause and think about where you are in this moment in your life, something special happens. Your understanding can be freed as you realize that no matter what mistakes you may have made in life, they are all in the past. And in some miraculous way, they have prepared you for exactly what is being created to come into manifestation right now.

As the days of time unfold from last year to this new year it is time to consider the life you have dreamed of. Your dreams, your desires are the treasure map of your life’s adventure. This is especially true, and especially powerful when you take this time as an opportunity to align your life with your Soul purpose.

Your Soul is the part of your spiritual anatomy that has vast power. And, it is your Soul that engages you in your co-creator role with God. Being a spark of Divine Light, both grants you certain privileges and calls you to certain responsibilities in your life.

Fuel Your Dreams

Even your Angels, especially your Guardian Angel are aligned with your Soul Purpose, your life purpose.

Amazingly your dreams provide the revelation of guidance that is unlocked and unleashed when you dare to dream. So, take some time during this transition from one year to the next to consider what you want, what you need and let your creative mind fuel your dreams through your imagination.

Dreaming is the perfect tool to ignite your creativity.

Dreaming is a creative exercise when aligned with your Soul and aligned with Divine Will in your co-creator role as a “child of God.”
-Genevieve Gerard

Dreaming activates the universal laws of creation. It can be powerful beyond your understanding.

Empower Your Life With Your Dreams

As I write these words to you, I am aware that in order for you to empower your life with your dreams there may be some things you need to address to unlock the full potential of using your dreams to create your life.

You may have been criticized in your life for being a “dreamer.” If so, I ask you to firmly, with clear intention put that criticism in your past.

I invite you to step into the creative role of being a dreamer, recognizing that your dreams can be the blueprint for creating your future.

The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.
– Eleanor Roosevelt

Active Dreaming

I invite you to engage in an exercise and technique I call Active Dreaming.

I ask you to practice this technique of active dreaming for 5 minutes a day, for the next 21 days. Before you engage in your practice of Active Dreaming I ask that you prepare yourself with these four simple steps:

Go to a place you will not be disturbed for 5 minutes.
Turn off any background noise that you can so your distractions are minimal.
Place your spiritual journal with a writing implement in easy reach.
As you begin your Active Dreaming Exercise get comfortable, sitting in a chair or couch with your spine aligned, not lying down, with your feet on the floor.

Active Dreaming Exercise

Take a very deep breath and as you draw in the breath draw in vitality and creative life energy. And as you exhale release any stress you may have been holding in your body.

Then taking in another very deep and relaxing breath let your body surrender to the support of your chair, realizing you are being supported by the chair, which is supported by the floor, which is supported by the earth.

This support is available to you through the Law of Gravity and is part of the support you receive as a child of God. It is one of many natural laws that are available to help you manifest your dreams.

For the next few moments, while you actively dream notice that each breath that you take, deep or shallow teaches you and confirms for you that life is providing exactly the amount of air that you need, in exactly the proportion in which you need it for energy and vitality.

Trust that what you need is available for you to create and manifest your life’s purpose, your Soul purpose. Ponder on this.

Now, as you pause and reflect, consider your life. Consider your dreams and desires. Let your mind and your imagination run free for at least five minutes.

What would change in your life if you were living the life of your dreams?

How would that feel?

Let your mind fill in as many details as you can while you engage in this active dreaming exercise. There are no limits to what is possible in your dream.

Let your mind be free. Examine and explore ideas you have never considered before. Suspend all your judgments.

This is a time for creative exploration. There are no limitations with creative exploration, there are only new possibilities and opportunities.

Then, release your dreams with no attachment to them. Take another deep and relaxing breath and release with the exhale any fears that may have arisen during your active dreaming time.

Now, take another few moments to record in your spiritual journal any ideas you may have had that you do not wish to forget.

Before you return to your normal day and normal activities consciously align your will with Divine Will and call upon you Angels to assist you in manifesting your dreams as long as they are in alignment with Divine Will and for the highest good of all.

You may wish to expand the time allocated to 10 or 15 minutes a day to allow adequate time for your spiritual journal entry.

Then go about your day freely.

Keep up this Active Dreaming exercise as a part of your life for the next 21 days. You may notice how you are able to see new possibilities and new opportunities more often. You may notice you have more hope in your heart. You might observe you have less negative self-talk or are naturally releasing some of your limiting beliefs.

Namaste,

Genevieve

A MEDITATION OF REMEMBERING

Genevieve Gerard

Check out my article on “Opening Your Heart To Your Childhood Angelic Message” that I wrote to go with this meditation.

A MEDITATION OF REMEMBERING

As always to begin, calm your mind, open your heart, invite the light.

Sit quietly with your spine aligned, let your energy center as you bring your awareness to a place of peace.

Although you are opening to remembering a childhood event, come into the present. Let the past fade away. Firmly relegate the past to the past. That was then, and this is now.

Release any feelings that may accompany the reactions others had if you shared your experience. Free yourself from external judgments and influences.

Take a deep breath as you are calming and centering your energies. As you do so, forgive yourself. Let go of any blame or self-judgement.

Forgive those who may not have supported you in the way that you needed in your childhood.

You are here now. You are now open and receptive. The past has no power over you. Right now you can expand your awareness to hear the message that the Angels bring to help and guide you in your life.

As you draw in your breath, draw in the Divine energies of grace and forgiveness.

As you exhale, release all of the negative “should” thoughts you may be having, imagining them moving away on the breath until they disappear.

You may wish just to sit quietly breathing while your energy calms and centers. You can do this as long as you like being gentle with yourself, letting yourself come to the point of calm and a place of peace.

Release and forgive with the exhale of each breath anyone who may have encouraged you to forget these childhood moments you are now endeavoring to recall. Let the past be in the past.

Surrender into the safety of being right here and right now.

Now, draw in a really deep and relaxing breath, drawing the air to the very bottom of your lungs as you expand your diaphragm to draw in more of the vitality of the breath.

Continue to draw in your breath until you have filled your lungs all the way to the upper lobes of the lungs.

Hold your breath briefly and consider that as you release your breath, you are also releasing anything that could interfere with you receiving the guidance and clarity that is available to you today in this meditation.

Pause and be receptive in the stillness to the quiet promptings of your heart. In the silence open your mind and heart. Listen.

With your heart and mind open, remember the time of innocence when the whole of your life lay before you were naive and unformed. Then, let any memories that are hidden emerge.

Take this time to recapture your childhood experience and bring it to your conscious recall, open your heart and mind as a child.

If no memories appear, take a moment to imagine a connection to your Guardian Angel on a thread of Light and open your mind to receive any guidance and clarity that may be available for you today.

You may wish to visualize a bridge from the top of your head to a golden radiating Light that represents your Soul. Then, with your mind calm and your heart open be receptive to whatever awareness of the spiritual realm that is available to you today to guide and empower you on your life’s journey to help align you with your life’s purpose.

Remain in this meditative focus for as long as feels right for you and record in your journal any thoughts, impressions and memories that may come to you.

Stay in the peaceful nurturing calm and grace of meditation. Let your heart be filled with the unconditional love that accompanies an Angel’s presence.

Be open and receptive without judgment or expectation. Let what comes to you flow to you spontaneously. You can consider and evaluate it later. Right now just be receptive and open.

When you feel you have completed the meditation, take the time to record your impressions. You can ponder on them either now or later.

Last express your gratitude to your Angel for the gift of guidance that you have received. If not now, then shortly.

Namaste,

Genevieve

Dare To Dream

Genevieve Gerard

Dare to Dream

A key element of being successful is that you dare to dream.

Ultimately, you can only achieve what you have dared to dream.

Now is a good time to spend some conscious thought on what you want in your life. Then let your mind free as you dream the details.

Dreaming is an important part of creating success in your life because as Napoleon Hill wrote long ago,

Whatever the mind can conceive, it can achieve.

That makes dreaming not idle fantasy but an integral part of the creative process.

Imagining is a powerful tool in achieving. Imagination reveals things that you may just sense intuitively that are often integral to your success.

Dreaming and imagining open the consciousness to your Higher Mind and ultimately, your Higher Self, your Soul. Therefore, I encourage you to dare to dream and to dream in as much detail as you can.

As you do this, it is a good time to journal so that when you are dreaming, thoughts and impressions of how to create the life you desire, you can write the details as they emerge and have the ideas to develop consciously.

Dreaming and imagining, followed by conscious consideration of what actions help bring your dreams into manifestation is powerful. Napoleon Hill also said that, “Goals are dreams with deadlines.”

Achieving what you want in life is empowered by an integration of the forces of your desire and your intention. It involves planning and then putting your plans into action. When aligned with your life’s purpose you are not only manifesting your dreams, but you are also fulfilling your destiny. You have available to you, not only the power of your mind but, the wisdom and guidance of your Soul.

Success, when aligned with your Soul purpose, is spiritual work.
– Genevieve Gerard

As you strive to bring your dreams into manifestation, you may notice thoughts, or encounter beliefs, that limit you or work against your success. It is in facing these challenges that the practice of meditation can be of great value. Meditation is a practice that belongs in the midst of life to help and support you in living a life of success and joy. It is not just for bringing calm to your mind and body. It can be an active force to help you grow into the full integration and the full glory of being both human and a spark of the Divine Plan of Evolution.

Meditation uses many techniques to help you live a conscious life. The more you are aligned with your Higher Self and are living with conscious attention and intention, the more successful and empowered you become. Meditation can influence your perspective in ways that bring greater joy and freedom from much of the negative self-talk that carries emotional pain and often result in dis-ease.

If you have followed my previous writings, or explored my meditation products, you will notice some very significant interwoven themes that are available to give you ways to live in joy. I hope these writings help you have a better life, a more joyful successful life.

Life is both an amazing gift from God and an amazing adventure in being and becoming all that you are meant to be. Being happy and successful are a part of the very best of what life can offer.

Meditation is Integral to Success

For me, meditation is integral to success on multiple levels. That is why I have created guided meditations to help you deal with a wide variety of life challenges. It has become a bit of an inside joke among my friends and family that when someone is expressing a life problem I often respond by saying “I have a meditation for that.” I think that is because I have used meditation in my personal journey to resolve most of the challenges limiting my success and happiness, a practice I continue to this day.

When I identify a difficult problem in my own life, or in the life of someone I am coaching or a friend, I ponder upon it and usually create a meditation to help bring greater perspective and understanding to how it can be approached differently, or reframed to eliminate the obstacle. Over the years, this has resulted in a wide range of meditations that help with all kinds of specific life challenges.

Involving my Higher Self, my Soul, in an active role has led to an integration of my body, emotions, mind and personality that incorporates the best of me, with the rest of me, resulting in a full and joyful life.

It is my dream and my life’s purpose to take the challenges, difficulties and even sorrows and pains and produce from them what can help others along their path. When I write and share my thoughts, my insights and solutions then it reframes my experiences into a service to help make life better for others. It is my Soul purpose and my joy to share with you the techniques and tools that come from my lifetime study of meditation and the Ageless Wisdom; to provide a practical application in life of the gifts of the spirit into integration to empower the experience of life.

Many obstacles along the journey can help or hinder your success. How you deal with these obstacles, the growth, and mastery you achieve, are all a part of conscious living and fulfilling your purpose in life. Using meditation to enlighten you and grant you the wisdom of your Higher Self, by learning to cope with life’s many challenges, is a way that you can direct and control your destiny.

Achieving success requires an integration of many aspects and elements. It is best achieved through the full integration of your whole body & being, for taking action is essential. Emotion and desire can fuel the fires of achievement, and your mind can be your most effective power as energy follows thought. When you add to this strong influence the dynamic guidance of your Higher Self, you have a winning synergy. Ponder on this.

Daring to Dream is a significant step in living the life you have envisioned. It is, however, only one step. Many have found their dreams shattered or never even started because of the limitation of letting your fears control your life. Learning to transmute, transcend and transform your fears so they are not a barrier to your success and happiness is a significant part of a spiritual path. Conquering your fears and overcoming your limiting beliefs is a task that requires discipline and vigilance. It is one of the best uses for meditation; it is one of the most transforming and empowering gifts that meditation can give.

Fundamental aspects of creating the life you envision include being successful in a variety of life’s trials. Some of these are basic. However, when you gain mastery over these challenges, life can be happier and healthier. Some may come easily to you; others may provide a greater challenge. It is in the integration and mastery of these life issues that growth and progress are demonstrated.

On my website, in my many articles, blogs and among my guided meditations, are a variety of spiritual tools that are available to help and empower you along your path. Dare to try something new.

Finding Your Life’s Purpose

Genevieve Gerard

Finding your Life’s Purpose

Each of us has a purpose for our life.

To fulfill this purpose brings us into harmony and alignment with our Higher Self, our Soul.

To engage in that purpose brings you more than happiness, but joy.

Knowing that in your daily work you are expressing your higher purpose gives a satisfaction that no paycheck or material reward can ever match.

Unfortunately, as you work for survival in the world the importance of manifesting your purpose in the world and finding “right work” can be lost. This is a sad reflection upon our society and demonstrates the ways we fail our children and more importantly, fail ourselves.

Years ago, Paul Goodman in his book “Growing Up Absurd” noted that

we work in jobs that are meaningless,
for which we get money, which is meaningless,
with which we buy things, which are meaningless
and wonder why we have a meaningless society.”

Right work, doing what you love in life, is a key to joy and often the best way for you to unlock abundance. So, as I ponder these things I wonder why more people don’t manifest their life purpose in their work.

As I question this and ponder this I find that there are multiple factors that influence this issue. As with so many things in life, we let ourselves be limited by our fears. We are afraid that if we hold out for the kind of work we love the kind of work we enjoy and what would bring us satisfaction and a sense of fulfillment that we will not make enough money for all the stuff we believe we need and desire. Perhaps what we should fear is living our whole life dissatisfied and burdened as we take on roles and responsibilities that are justified by society’s values that we cannot fulfill. This attitude is often summed up in the expression “that’s why they call it work.” Unfortunately, that expression and the values that it espouses are antitheses to living a full and fruitful life, living a life of joy.

Because we as a society do not value finding our Life’s Purpose, generation after generation is condemned to jobs that do not express or fulfill them as the materialistic values of our society encourage people to live lives of consumption and quiet desperation. This is despite the advice of various thought leaders to “Do what you love, and the money will follow.”

Working for survival can condemn you to a life where you may survive but it lacks a sense of meaning and purpose that will lead you to despair. The “stuff” you buy does not bring you satisfaction or joy. It becomes the clutter of a life of compromise and frustration.

We too often fail to believe in and trust ourselves, life, God or the very purpose of life itself to make fulfilling our life’s purpose work for us, even though it is in doing that is where the subtle energy of life aligns to help and support us. We buy into the limiting beliefs of our world that drudgery is fine if it is amply rewarded. Nothing could be further from the truth.

Perhaps, before you agree to let your fears and limiting beliefs condemn you to a life of sorrow and suffering as you commit to most of your life experience unhappy and unfulfilled, you might consider taking the time and attention to understand what actually brings you a sense of joy, what your real purpose in life is that will satisfy your hearts desire.

Ironically, that does not need to be a high-status job or a dramatic or glamorous one, but rather one that fulfills your sense of higher purpose. The most mundane and tedious jobs known in our society, as basic as a greeter at Wal-Mart, can be the fulfillment of one’s life purpose if as a worker greets customers, they express the intention to be a beacon of pure comfort and joy to other’s as they greet them. When you are doing this as an act of service, and you are aligned with your life’s purpose, yours is the most important job and you are important doing that job because what you are delivering and bringing to that job is more than can be imagined or rewarded. Joy and purpose can often be found in doing whatever you are doing with the fullness of your whole being infusing the task.

When you passion becomes your vocation you don’t need a vacation.”
– Genevieve Gerard

Early in my work life, I was a waitress. Although it was hard work physically, and I was tired at the end of my shift, I left the job satisfied and fulfilled because of my goal, my purpose, was to make my customer’s experience of eating out as pleasant and relaxing as possible. This focus of service to those who crossed my life gave me a sense of satisfaction that filled each day. I approached the job by desiring to be the very best waitress I could be and anticipate and fulfilling the needs and desires of my customers made it a challenge and satisfying. Remembering them from time to time, and remembering what they liked and how they liked it, made the human interaction valuable. This was equally true whether it was a fancy dinner restaurant or a sit on a stool, coffee shop. Not surprisingly, I was always rewarded with more tips than my fellow waiters who approached their service as demeaning or drudgery.

Each day was a pleasure to serve others and bring a little joy into their life even though it may have been as simple a pleasure as a well brewed and warm cup of coffee.

So, it seems to find right work not only has within it the element of finding the right job but also of finding within you that job that you can do to bring the energy from your Higher Self to make it align with your purpose in life.

Through meditation, by opening yourself to the guidance of your Higher Self, you can gain clarity on this issue. Because this is such an important factor in life that has such far reaching impact in not only your life but your relationship and opportunities for service with your fellow man, I recently conducted a group meditation on “Finding your Life Purpose.” This meditation is available as a MP3 download on my website on my New Group of World Servers meditations page.

It is not your purpose to be corralled by your fears into accepting compromises and be demeaned and limited by work but to find where in the world and how in the world you can be a fulfilled glorious expression of your real self.

Look into yourself and consider what you can do and what you can bring to each circumstance and each opportunity in life to align with your Higher Purpose which will bring you more and more opportunities and experiences compatible with that purpose.

Spend some time in meditation to consider what your true passion – your real purpose is, and then be brave and bold as you go forth to do it and live it to the very best of your abilities. Find your life purpose!

Namaste,

Genevieve Gerard
