You must love yourself before you love
another. By accepting yourself and fully being what you are, your simple
presence can make others happy.
Be thine own Valentine!
Valentine's Day has long been a favorite holiday of mine, mostly because I
have always adored the idea of having a special day dedicated to the idea
of Love. I enjoyed cutting and pasting hand-made Valentines when I was a
little girl, and giving them to people I cared about. Valentine's Day is
such a marvelous opportunity to tell the world how much you love it... and
to let yourself know how much you love you, too! Never mind all the hype
about how this day is devoted only to romantic love... the real beauty of
having a day to honor Love is that when we stop to think about it, love is
everywhere, all around. The key to most fully enjoying Valentine's Day is
to be loving toward ourselves... being our own Valentine!
One thing I notice as I get older and wiser is what an enormous difference
energy, enthusiasm and attitude makes. It's obvious how much better my days
are when I start each day with meditations to clear, harmonize, balance and
raise energy to a central core feeling of being the embodiment of love.
This feeling of loving oneself is not so much "all about me," as it is
about experiencing unconditional loving acceptance and support for oneself.
This feeling can become one's regular everyday state of being, even when it
feels strange or unfamiliar at first.
I was fortunate growing up to have a mom who frequently asked me the
question, "What would make you truly happy today?" Whether or not you are
in a romantic relationship, ask yourself, "What would make me truly happy
today?" and imagine what you can do to brighten your day. Many of the same
acts of kindness we like to do for others are every bit as wonderful when
we do them for ourselves... such as thoughtfully making a favorite
beverage, finding a favorite book, or going to a special place at sunset.
You can even get yourself something whimsical and fun as a special token
and reminder of love. Let this Valentine's Day be extra special for
yourself this year, and know that when you feel loved by yourself, you are
truly brightening the world.

"I'm really amazed how powerful and beautiful the reading was. Touched
and impressed and it feels as if it lifts me up and let me experience a
whole new dimension of 'me', of 'love'..! Thank you so much for helping me
towards this level of consciousness! I keep it a little bit short because I
really have to / want to stay in this momentum, this feeling of peace and
love... although you represent this energy as well! I feel so much love
around me, as if the reading made / makes me more connected and aware of
the importance to be thankful that the spirits guide me, protect me and let
me grow both spiritually and as a human being! Thank you soooo much!" --

Katrina Dreamer Interviews Cynthia Sue Larson
5 January 2011
Katrina Dreamer is a spiritual artist and photographer who reminds us that
"We're all connected and we're all dreaming about (and as) Nature. We might
not notice it in our everyday lives, but I believe if we start to pay
attention to our dreams and to Nature in waking, we will start to notice
patterns of nature dreaming." Katrina introduces me in her web site's first
interview, "Welcome to the inaugural Katrina Dreamer interview! My first
guest is the radiant Cynthia Sue Larson, whose favorite thing to ask is,
"How good can it get?" As a spiritual life coach and author, she encourages
us to gently shift our thinking. Here she speaks about her connection with
nature and how she integrates it into her work." http://katrinadreamerart.blogspot.com/2011/01/katrina-dreamer-interviews-cynthia-sue.html

Psychologist Andy Martens from the University of Canterbury in
Christchurch, New Zealand, and his colleagues found that having high
self-esteem doesn't just feel good, it has physical benefits too. It seems
that thinking well of ourselves may protect both the heart and immune
system. http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn19575-love-yourself-to-stay-healthy.html

The Disappearing and Reappearing Credit Card
Carl
Saint Paul, Minnesota, USA
My wife and I were out doing errands and our last stop was for groceries.
Char didn't have her credit card, so I handed her mine. She was concerned
about having to produce ID; I told her they never check anyway. As we
predicted, there was no hassle at the checkout: she handed me my credit
card back, and I distinctly remember putting it in my shirt pocket.
We got home and were both concerned that our dog be let out immediately as
we were gone a long time, so the first order of business was getting her
out side. As I walked in the house I removed both my credit card and wallet
and set both on the counter (with the intention of rejoining one in the
other after dog duty), the credit card was on top of the wallet. After she
did her business I went back to the counter with the intention of putting
my credit card back in the wallet and returning the wallet to my rear pants
pocket. However I saw that the credit card was no longer on top of the
wallet. I called out to my wife and asked if she had taken it (keep in mind
it had literally been less than a minute since I put the credit card and
wallet together on the counter) she said no. From that moment on and for
the next hour we looked for the credit card without success. Eventually, in
frustration, we gave up. We both agreed that this was extremely weird but
kind of weird-fun. Then a few weeks later I was looking in our business
card organizer for the card of a handy man, when there in front of me was
my cc, the very one I thought slipped permanently into another dimension.
We were both amazed because we had both been through that organizer several
times in our initial search for that stupid cc. There simply is no
explanation for what happened ... How irritating and exhilarating!
The last part of this recounting was when I actually found the card. As I
said we wanted to get the contact information of our favorite handy man
which required a quick perusal through the business card organizer. As I
opened the drawer where it is kept I was very aware of an expectation that
the credit card would somehow show up in the card organizer. It was a kind
of giddy, unrealistic expectation the kind I had as a kid playing hide and
go seek and it was my turn to be “it”. To my great
surprise there that little bugger was. Since this has happened I have
developed a suspicion that “reality” is full of
discontinuities due to a deep misunderstanding of the nature of reality (if
there is such a thing).
Note from Cynthia: This story reminds me of times I've lost
important things (money, jewelry, keys) and seen them reappear when being
in precisely this state of mind you state so eloquently as being like
playing hide and seek. Rather than feeling freaked out that something
essential is missing, I've just felt a buzz of anticipation that I'll be
seeing it sometime soon... and it'll be a wonderful surprise when I do. And
yes, the fact that it works to be in such a state of mind and then witness
something appear where it definitely hadn't been before is truly
astounding! Thanks so much for sharing your experience!

I wanted to write to you about an experience I had this morning. I know
you'll understand it (or at least recognize that it must have been a
reality shift).
I was driving to work at JFK. I saw one of my former professors, who I
assumed was on his way to JFK too. He drives a blue Ford station wagon.
There was one car between us, an SUV. I watched him turn left onto Contra
Costa Blvd and continue on to the left turn at Ellinwood. He was the first
car at the left turn light, then the SUV, then me. But when the light
turned green, there was a silver car instead. My professor was nowhere to
be found. There was no other car there before... it's not like he decided
to leave the turn lane and go straight. I know this because the SUV didn't
move up to fill the space that would have been left had my professor left
the turn lane to go straight.
The silver car turned right into a shopping complex. When I arrived at
work, my professors car was nowhere in the parking lot. It's like he just
wasn't there anymore. Is this a case of me seeing him for a reason...almost
hallucinating him there? Or is it some kind of bilocation? Where did that
silver car come from? Any thoughts?
Note from Cynthia: Thanks so much for sharing this experience
with me! This kind of reality shift reminds me of some I've had where I've
been driving and observed cars in my rear view mirror that had been behind
me are suddenly gone, when there were no exits or off-ramps, and nowhere
for them to have gone.... and also various times when I've seen people
literally vanish before my eyes, as I describe in my book,
Reality Shifts: When Consciousness Changes the Physical World.
From what you describe, it sounds to me like you moved from one reality in
which you saw your former professor's car into a reality where a silver car
was there instead. This kind of discontinuity in reality is often the way
reality shifts are observed... where something is there one moment (a
broken bone, a cut, a person, a car)... and gone the next. Instantaneous
spontaneous remission of disease and injury is another area where these
kinds of discontinuous shifts in reality are most remarkable.
As far as the "why" of this particular shift occurring... you might have a
clue based in thoughts and feelings you had at the time... or perhaps we'll
never know. Sometimes just witnessing such a shift in reality seems to be
the point of the whole event.

(5) Reality Shifting Q and A / Mail
Bag
Hi Cynthia, I found your email on a review from amazon. Hope you don't mind my
writing. In it you mention "changing the past"... I'm really interested in
this, as a couple of tragedies ruined my life. Could you give me some info
on it, please? Thanks in advance. Best wishes,
Emi
Dearest Emi, Thanks so much for writing! Yes, it's possible to change the
past... and in rather small (yet important) ways, we do this all the time,
through our attitude toward events of our pasts. I recently gave made a
presentation at a conference on this topic, and you can read my powerpoint
slides from this talk posted at: Listening to Future Selves, Reviewing Our Pasts
http://www.scribd.com/doc/40924785/Listening-to-Future-Selves-Reviewing-Our-Pasts lots of love,

Voices Out of Stone is my favorite kind of travel guide, as
it shares both personal experiences and a fascinating history of ancient
mysterious sacred sites. The standing stones of Carnac are the central
focus of this book, and they are written about intimately by author Carolyn
North and with an overview as to global significance by Natasha Hoffman.
Readers who enjoy books by Hamish Miller such as The Sun and the Serpent
will love Voices Out of Stone for the way it invites us to open all our
senses and more fully experience the deepest levels of meaning of the
mystic standing stones of Brittany. I love the sketches and descriptions of
various stone alignments, dolmens and menhirs in this book, and am
particularly delighted by tales of visiting some sites at times when they
could be enjoyed in solitude... or with a traveling companion equally
devoted to listening to hidden wisdom of the stones.
Voices Out of Stone truly shines when describing how Carolyn North became
something of a reluctant yet highly sought after healer during her visit to
Carnac, and the ways these and other sacred stones transformed Carolyn's
view of health, personal growth, and transformation. Reading this book
graces me with something akin to the quiet, poetic beauty of the sacred
sites themselves. I felt sad coming to the last pages and the realization
that my journey to Carnac was coming to an end... for like a vacation to
Carnac, Voices Out of Stone transports me to magical realms.
I highly recommend Voices Out of Stone to all who love connecting to nature
and Earth, to anyone intrigued by ancient sacred sites, and to those
interested in planning a trip to Brittany, France.
There's a lot to love in this fast-paced novel about a young
teenage girl whose healing abilities provide her with both tremendous
opportunities and challenges, as she embarks on a quest to track down her
mother. Ada's journey has a sense of urgency to it, as she breaks free from
her aunt's care to take off from Canada to France, keeping a low profile so
as to not attract attention of those who seek to harness Ada's healing
powers greedily for their own. While much of Ada's antisocial behavior at
first seems a bit unusual, her history of having been moved from foster
home to foster home help explain why she has learned to look after herself
in a world where others seldom truly look after her.
This book's interesting illustrations and simple vocabulary make it ideal
for young readers who feel different than their peers. Ada is an empowering
heroine who rises to meet any and all setbacks. Ada's avid interest and
dedicated commitment to learning new skills set an excellent example of a
young woman who is smart, strong, and compassionate. Many of Ada's deepest
conflicts have to do with coming to terms with how she sees herself in
relation to others in the world, as she frequently wonders about just how
responsible she ought to be when blessed as she is with the power to heal
anyone of any ailment.
I know a book is wonderful when I read it straight through, and have
trouble putting it down, and Ada: Legend of a Healer is a page-turner! This
book deeply touches my heart, as it addresses feelings that a young woman
would have of wondering how best to fit into a world full of people who
would seek to possess or control those who have gifts to heal. This story
has such a strong ring of truth to it that I frequently found myself
feeling that this is a true story about a girl I'd really love to meet.
