I dare to walk alone

I dare to walk alone.

Do not be misled by this ego challenge. For that, is all it is.

A while ago I had a client who partook of my smoking cessation hypnotherapy session. All went well as usual but I could recognize the resistance he was holding. While all it usually takes is one session sometimes people resist or overanalyze themselves into doubt and have to have a backup session to hit home. I enjoy these sessions because they allow me to interact at a deeper level of relationship to each client.

This particular person told me, when asked what happened, that it was as if he challenged or dared himself to go ahead and have another cigarette. His ego spoke loudly saying “I dare you, you’re not strong enough to have just one more.” Needless to say that cigarette was lit.
The point is this; the ego uses any and all things to keep you doing what it wants. The problem is that you don’t even realize that the ego is not you. Not the true you.

The ego is like a character you have made up in your mind. It is your image of yourself. The problem is that most people are delusional and not able to see reality. They live in the movie images in their mind and it is projected out there on the world you think you are seeing. In reality what you see in the world is only the mind movie being projected back to you and the image of you is the lead character or hero of your film. None of it is real.

The real you is not contained in this world and that is why every great teacher throughout time has said the same thing in many different ways but can be summed up by the following statement.

”Do not be attached to this world and it’s trappings for they are meaningless”

Only you give meaning and value to the things in this world. Please notice that throughout your life you most likely have experienced great suffering and anguish over these worldly attachments. Yes, they can feel good for a time and be pleasurable but in the long run it never lasts. It always turns, at some point, to dust.

The only way to move through the dilemma the ego presents is to believe and understand the truth that you never walk alone.

God’s grace shines on you in every moment, from every angle, from every frame of time. All you have to do is stop watching and acting in your movie and start watching and playing in God’s.


Have a great day!

Open Mind, Open Heart,Open Hands

Open mind, open heart, open hands

The mind is the transmitter, the heart is the receiver, keep the hands empty.

“My mind holds only what I think with God”. –A Course in Miracles

Give your thoughts to God to be purified, cleansed, and corrected. The truth shall remain while illusion shall be removed.

Imagine opening a channel from your mind to God.

This is like an air flow cannon. Anything put in is shot straight to God. You are giving to God. The air flows only one way. The mind is the transmitter only, which is its correct function.

The heart is the receiver. It is the pump or engine that takes in the flow. It sucks in the air, energy, inspiration, intuition or light from God. This is the stuff that has already been corrected and filtered by God coming back to you in a cycle like way from the heart and mind of God. God is continually giving.

Now, any thoughts you have that may come up are not to be kept in your mind and analyzed or fretted over. They are to be placed immediately within this beam of air or light that is connected to God and shot up and out straight to God. This cannon is continually on all the time, it is always flowing 24/7. The goal here is to send the thoughts to God to be corrected before you even think about them. You need only ever concern yourself with the truthful corrected thoughts!

“My mind holds only what I think with God”. –A Course in Miracles

The air/energy/light is brought into the heart, sent up into the mind and then released to God.

The renewed energy/air/light/thoughts are received back through the heart. The heart shares what is received with the mind and the mind gives it to God. This is the simple way the ego/lower mind is easily bypassed.

Any time you have a thought arise in your mind immediately send it to God via this light beam. God immediately removes the untrue illusion and sends the pure, cleansed truth back to be received by the heart. If you continuously do this with habitual consistency you will eliminate all suffering, pain, worry and stress from your life.

You will also end up automatically replacing those illusions with the truth of joy, peace, love and harmony.

In the act of giving you will be receiving. They are just about simultaneous. There is only about a second or two needed to receive back the truth from specific thoughts given.

Specific thoughts can be given at any time. Either when they arise or manually at any time.

Imagine your hand placing the word or thought into the air stream/cannon flow.

At this point anything in your body that is connected to the thought will try to go with it to be released. You need to make sure you let it go! Your part is to release it, some thoughts naturally do not want to be let go of. That is the ego mind holding onto it’s illusions. Do not be afraid to empty yourself out. You will be filled with truth in just a moment but you have to empty the space first. Giving is receiving.

“Only what you are not giving can be lacking”.- A Course in Miracles

“The usefulness of a cup is in its emptiness”- Chinese proverb


The most resistance, I have found, has been with the thoughts about money, sex, food and the body. These are the most powerful illusions the ego mind uses to keep you trapped in its destructive cycle of illusion. These are the ones that typically you see as the “you” that you think you are.

So to get rid of these incorrect beliefs and thoughts all you need do is place the image of the word within this light cannon and shoot it to God. You will feel other connected thoughts try to leave the body and mind. Do not resist let it go, it is not you. If you have trouble, stay relaxed and keep giving to God, keep the channel open and flowing.

Now realize that all this takes just a single moment. It is very similar to what A Course in Miracles calls the “Holy Instant”. This is instantaneous. You can release any and all thoughts one after the other in just an instant each. They are immediately transformed and sent back in truth and light to be received by your heart only to be given up again. It is a continuous cycle that never stops.

And you will not want it to stop for you will feel more alive, more in tune than you have ever felt in your entire life. For once you start this process you will be living in truth and you will be living in your passion and in the full abundance and truth of God. The falseness and sickness of the ego cannot touch you. With just a little consistent practice you will be able to master a continuous level of “no thought” so quickly that monks who have been searching for this truth throughout lifetimes will be flabbergasted and amazed.

The only thing left to do is work this technique and expand upon it to work flawlessly for you.

Good Luck!

P.S.- Once you become fully clear and have released all you need to, it is quite fun to imagine placing a large bag of love, joy or happiness and send it to God. Not only do you receive it back in an instant but it is magnified and multiplied. You can also feel good that you are not the only one that receives the benefits from it. Try it out!

Practice this techniques everyday, keep the flow going and you will transform your thoughts and your life!
