How Good Can it Get?
Cynthia Sue Larson
Speak Words
of Gratitude
Talk as if you are breathing words into existence
full of gratitude straight from your heart,
to find out how good your speech can get.
Our words have the power to heal, and also the power to destroy. Much of
that power comes not just from the content of those words being spoken, but
from the tone of voice we utilize when we speak.
While attending the West Coast Dowser's conference at the beginning of this
month, I was enthralled to hear one speaker describe how he'd located a
negative power spot in a couple's San Francisco apartment. This negative
energy spot existed in between the husband and wife's closets, which he
pointed out to the couple when clearing energy in their home. This couple
immediately explained that this spot is where they stood each morning while
getting dressed as they would argue with one another, and that this daily
morning argument was part of their daily routine. At the gentle prompting
of the dowser, a suggestion was made that they might feel much better if
they did not engage in daily arguments, but rather respectful conversation.
The couple agreed.
While this story may seem amusing and perhaps even a bit ridiculous, we
would be wise to consider how each of us might better recognize our
internal 'argument spots' that can be transformed into respectful inner
dialogues. Gratitude in particular is one of the best and strongest
internal tools for transformation, and something we can all benefit from in
our lives.
You can feel a sense of the benefit of experiencing daily gratitude by
asking, “What am I grateful for that I had something to do
with today?” Chances are excellent you've done quite a lot!

Observation, Identity, and
Influence
Quantum physics depends on observers selecting how and where measurements
are obtained–unlike classical physics which has no such
requirement for an observer.
The idea of observation and the role of the “Observer”
are key to the study of quantum mechanics, since the selection of how and
where a measurement is made affects what is subsequently
observed. There is a special meaning to the word
‘Observer’ in quantum physics, in which selection of
a method of measurement of a quantum system influences what is subsequently
observed. Methods of measurement include people at some point, so
we play the role of Observer when we choose what we look at and how we look
at the world.
This aspect of quantum physics is sometimes referred to as “the
observer effect” and “the measurement
problem.” The so-called ‘measurement
problem’ is related to the Observer and has been called the most
controversial problem in physics today, because in the realm of Quantum
Mechanics, there appears to be no singular fixed reality that is exists
when nobody is looking. Intriguingly, there can exist layers upon layers
of observers–such that it can be possible for someone observing
an observer to ultimately influence events–such as Schrodinger
observing a cat inside a box of poison (such that the cat can be envisioned
to be existing in some state of being both alive and dead)–or
someone observing someone observing the cat inside the box with the poison.

Thriving
with Quantum Jumps, Reality Shifts and Mandela Effects
A Gaia Meet up Talk with Cynthia Sue Larson
Sunday, July 8, 2018 from 7-9 pm
The Caritas Center
5723 Arapahoe Avenue, Suite 1A
Boulder, CO 80303
(303) 449-3066 http://www.caritascenter.org/a-gaia-meet-up-talk-with-cynthia-sue-larson.html
Increasing reports of alternate histories in mainstream and
social media suggest the “Mandela Effect” phenomena
is not going away any time soon, and indicate we may be receiving important
clues as to the true nature of reality. Incidences of inexplicable
changes to books, movies, products, and more are raising more questions
than answers. Can experiences of the “Mandela Effect”
be simply dismissed as a matter of collective misremembering? Are we
witnessing evidence that we are living in a glitchy computer simulation?
Have scientists at CERN tampered with something they shouldn’t
have? Cynthia Sue Larson shares insights from two decades of research in
the field of reality shifts, providing startling evidence of alternate
histories and an overview of aspects of quantum physics that can begin to
answer many questions. We can learn to thrive amidst shifting
‘facts’ and relative truths, discovering core
stability not so much in measurable, but rather in aspects of perennial
wisdom, as we see increasing evidence of many possible truths, many
possible realities. We are alive at an extraordinary time, as
recent scientific research indicates that we influence what we perceive,
and objectivity is an illusion. Consciousness is intrinsically interwoven
in the true nature of reality, and we can express free will with our
ability to ask questions.
I Saw my Husband and Daughter in an Alternate
Dimension
Joanne
South Windsor, Connecticut, USA
One evening, many years ago, I saw my husband and young
daughter, pass by me going in the opposite direction as I was driving home.
I thought my husband had gone on an errand, and taken our daughter, which
was not something he typically did without me, as she was born with a
disability and needed a high level of care at that time. When I got home
less than 10 minutes later I was extremely surprised to see them at home.
My husband assured me that they had never left the house. I absolutely
knew that I had seen them. I had a strong feeling that I had been given a
glimpse of my husband and child simultaneously living in an alternate
dimension. Since my earliest years, I have been very sensitive, intuitive
and have had very unusual experiences at times. This second experience
also happened many years ago. It was a very difficult time. I remember
feeling stressed and overwhelmed. Our daughter was often in the hospital,
we were having financial struggles, and I was grieving the deaths of my Dad
and two of my best friends all within a few years. One day I headed out in
the car alone to go shopping. I remember saying out loud before I left
that I couldn’t handle another bad thing happening. Perhaps this
statement changed what could have happened next.. I started to pull out at
an intersection, when another car suddenly came speeding down the road and
literally passed completely through my car and disappeared. It entered my
driver side door and exited the passenger side without impacting me or the
car at all. It was like watching a ghost pass through a wall. I sat there
in stunned disbelief. I felt that I must have been saved by my guardian
angel. Perhaps my self who could not bear another bad thing happening was
spared through a quantum jump to another reality. In reflecting upon my
first experience, being given a glimpse of my husband and daughter in that
other dimension driving by me years ago, I wonder why my alternate self was
not with them in that car. If I survived a very close call in one reality,
I think it is possible that I did not in another. I do not know. I do know
that I am grateful to be here, that our daughter is now an adult and we are
all doing well. I am increasingly aware through my experiences and my
lifelong love of learning that I am a spiritual being, living in a
multidimensional universe. In my life, and through my work as a nurse I
have found that healing can be found through compassion, caring and having
the courage to share our stories.
Note from Cynthia: Thanks so much for writing to me, and for
sharing with me two unforgettable reality shifts you've experienced. While
having an oncoming vehicle pass through yours and seeing loved ones out in
their car and immediately thereafter seeing them still at home may sound
unbelievable to some, I've found when giving talks about these topics that
both of these experiences are far more commonly experienced than most
people realize. Many people who've come up to talk with me about
either of these types of experiences typically start the conversation with,
"I've never told anyone about this," since here in the western world there
seems to be quite a negative stigma about believing such things can happen.
Yet clearly, these types of experiences are happening, and apparently much
more often than has so far been formally acknowledged by much of society.
What seems to be happening is that sometimes, we literally do get to choose
which reality we're physically experiencing, with occasional real-time
glimpses of other adjacent possible realities that we might usually call
'imaginary.' Yet within quantum physics, such possible realities have a
reality of their own, and observers definitely do play a big role in
selecting between them.

Door Hinges Appear on Screen Door
Lawrence
Glendora, California, USA
In May 2014 I was going to put up (install) an aluminum
screen door I found under the manufactured home we had just recently bought
and i had everything ready to go with screws and tools and I called my wife
over to help me out with her holding the door while i positioned the door
to the door jam and screw the 2 hinges at mid top and bottom into the wood
of the outer door frame when i noticed that the hinges were not there on
the screen door for there were 3 large open holes at each hinge area where
the hinge would have been pop riveted to the side edge of the screen door
mid top and mid bottom . and i remember saying to my wife oh look there are
no hinges and she looked and said, “Oh, maybe that's why
the previous owner threw it under the home to begin-with,” and I
said, “Okay, I will measure the 2 hinge areas to get the right
size before I go to Home Depot,” and I put the screen door in
the back yard for a later time, which became a week later. When I went to
measure the area where the hinges would go, I became astonished, because
right before my eyes I saw that the hinges were there on the screen door.
I immediately ran to my wife and asked, “Do you remember seeing
the hinges gone on the door last week? We could not put it up,”
and she said, “Yes, why?” and I said,
“Because now they are there on the door,” and we both
went out to look so i could show her, and she saw the hinges were there.
While I was seeing this again also, we both saw knowing they were not there
before. This was filed away in my mind to rehash my memory later on about
the strange thing that happened to us; Cynthia what do gather from this
incident.
Note from Cynthia: Thanks for writing to me with your
first-hand report of the aluminum screen door hinges appearing on the
screen door one day, when you went out to take measurements so you'd be
able to purchase the correct size hinges. I've also experienced situations
like this, where an item is clearly and obviously in one state of being one
day--such as a hinge-less aluminum door--and in quite a different state on
another day. I describe my experience of once witnessing a Gortex coat
we'd gotten that was definitely not rip-stop nylon (which was a more
expensive material for coats at that time) one day be the same color and
the same size and by the same manufacturer--but now suddenly without ever
having been taken back to the store to exchange or any such thing it was
now rip-stop nylon. I describe my experience with that in my book,

Altering History
Lyn
Coventry, West Midlands, Warwickshire, England
I’ve jumped to a new dimension where something
very odd has occurred! A few weeks ago I was at a family bbq and some
family friends were there; one friend I was talking to was talking to me
about his ‘late’ mother and how his father was
overtly upset at the funeral (when Roy was just 16 years old. Roy is now
61) we had a long conversation about it. Then a week later my mum told me
Roy has just lost his mum! I argued this and said that can’t be
right ?! I was only just talking about him losing his mum at the young age
of 16! We talked for w while about it)! She said I don’t
understand that as he’s just lost her! I went on his face book
to see for myself and she’s right!! This has to be the most
shocking quantum jump I’ve made todate where history has altered
and someone who was once passed has had all that extra time now??! Very
very strange! What are your thoughts on this Cynthia?
Note from Cynthia: Wow, this change truly is remarkable, with
such an unmistakably large shift having occurred in such a relatively short
span of time! And while this obvious a shift feels shocking, I'm glad you
didn't block it by deciding that either you or Roy or your mum must be
mistaken. I love how you've followed through by double-checking to see
what Roy is now reporting online. If Roy hadn't actually just lost his mum
recently, you might have asked him what he recalls you talked about with
him a few weeks ago--but obviously that's a bad idea to do now that his
mum's death is so recent in this current reality. In this case, the long
conversation you had with Roy is something you know for sure definitely
happened--just like you know for sure that just recently, Roy has (again!)
lost his mum. I like your observation that now you're in a reality where
Roy has had so much extra time with his mum--which might have been
something both you and Roy were wishing for a few weeks ago when you were
talking with him. And in many cases, reality shifts do happen that move
reality in a direction we much prefer. I notice there is also a similarity
of this reality shift with one that Raul reported in the August 2005 issue
of RealityShifters, where he experienced film director Frank Capra's death
twice, six years apart: Find Hope in Infinite Possibilities

Earring Returned after Going Missing in a
Store
Gina
Sacramento, California, USA
I have to say that even though I've had some adventures
myself losing things, all I cold think of is "please not my grandma's
diamond!" I'm right now looking for a broach which contained my great
grand aunt's picture. It was "borrowed" a couple of weeks ago. Trying to
be patient while waiting.
I did have a bit ago one of my earrings disapear off my ear at a store.
Well, okay, I came home and made peace with my loss. About 6 months later,
there was the earring, sitting on the top shelf of my fridge. I have
cleaned that shelf at least twice a week in the last 6 months.
Note from Cynthia: Thanks for sharing your experience having
patience, waiting for a while, and then experiencing the return of valued
items, such as your earring that went missing when you were out shopping in
a store. How wonderful that your earring arrived to sit so boldly on the
top shelf of your refrigerator six months later! I've found that patiently
waiting approach helpful, too--a kind of cosmic, "No questions asked"
arrangement, where very often the missing items really do return at some
point in the future. Keeping a positive attitude definitely is helpful, I
have found!
Michelangelo and the Sistine
Chapel
Deborah
Bastrop, Texas, USA
First of all, I want to thank you for all you are bringing
to the world. I so enjoy your work! I clearly, CLEARLY remember that in
Michelangelo's The Creation of Adam painting on the ceiling of the Sistine
Chapel, Adam is sitting on a rock with his outstretched arm and index
finger reaching for "God" and the angels, engulfed in a bank of clouds,
reaching back down to Adam. Well, not anymore! NOW, "God" and the angels
are contained in a cross section of A BRAIN--A HUMAN BRAIN! How
interesting that when humanity was searching for "God", as well as personal
fulfillment, being something held in the "out there", the path of
accomplishing that quest was pictured as exactly that--out there, held in
some bank of clouds. Thanks to your work as well as the dedication of
others to educate our collective that the True reality is held within each
of us, now, the route of THIS quest is reflected in Michelangelo's art.
Again, thank you so much for the wonderful, clear, and entertaining way you
are bringing and explaining this reality shift to us all. Interesting that
God's arm now extends out of what would be considered the third eye. Also,
Adam is no longer even really reaching for God! There is just the slightest
effort to extend his finger is response. As I recall from the cloud
version, there was effort in Adam's reach upwards towards God. Hopefully
this is a clear indication that we, as a collective, have reached the
critical mass point where the lower vibrational egoistic aspect has
surrendered its quest to dominate thus opening our new paradigm experience
of living in higher aspects of heart based unity consciousness!
Note from Cynthia: Wow--this change to Michelangelo's Creation
of Adam painting is a big one! I do not remember anything like God and the
angels being surrounded by folded drapery in the form of a brain--good
heavens! I see that according to current historical facts, someone named
F.L. Meshberger presented a pictoral thesis in 1990 that God is enfolded in
what appears to be an anatomically accurate cross-section of a human brain
in Michelangelo's Creation of Adam--yet this is something I do not recall
having been possible in the way I remember this famous painting from the
ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. I also remember God reaching DOWN toward
Adam's extended hand and finger, but now God reaches across!
Ceramic Trays change to Plastic
Teresa
Morristown, Tennessee, USA
It's taken me a day or so to process this, but the night
before last, I asked my ex to get two square ceramic trays off the top
cabinet shelf for me. I had put them up there maybe two years ago and had
had no need for them until the other night. When he handed them down to
me, I was stunned. The trays still had the same wood grain finish as they
did when I'd put them on the shelf, but they were no longer ceramic or
square. Now they are rectangular and plastic. They also have a weird grape
cluster decal on them that they did not have before. I wonder where my
square ceramic trays went and where these cheesy rectangular, grape
adorned, plastic trays came from. There is no rhyme or reason to this
shift. I'm still stumped about the shift. You can call me Teresa from
Morristown, Tennessee if you want. It's nice to hear from you and I can't
wait to read the issue. And no one could have switched the trays. They had
been up there so long there were cobwebs on them and no one knew about the
trays except for me! Things have been shifting for me in many small ways
lately, and I tend to ignore them and let them go with little notice. I
guess maybe the universe is saying, "Hey, do you see me now?" I feel like
these shifts are indicating that life is much more mysterious than most
people realize! Thanks for the great work you are doing, Cynthia. You and
Rupert Sheldrake are fine examples of scientists who are out there doing
work that is relevant to the average person. I applaud you.
Note from Cynthia: This really is a bit of a head-scratcher,
with the familiar old trays now being completely different. Presumably,
nobody else would have switched out the ceramic trays for these rectangular
plastic wood-grained trays--and they sound somewhat similar to the
untrained eye or unfamiliar observer. This really is a remarkable shift,
since the items were familiar to you in a tactile way, as well as
visually--and they seem to be noticeably different in both regards!
Foot Changes
Lynda
Morristown, Tennessee, USA
I have come to experience even more bizarre alterations in
this new reality, one of the parents at my children’s school
told me last year she had a prosthetic foot! And walked with a limp;
recently I noticed she had stopped limping?! So I asked her how her foot
was? She showed me and said she is waiting on surgery for her foot which
were definitely not prosthetic!! I obviously couldn’t say to
get you had a prosthetic foot last year as she would have thought I was
crazy. These changes are not subtle in any way shape or form.
I’m still curious as to why my financial experience
hasn’t improved for the better as yet? Albeit I’m
seeing small increases and options--perhaps this is to come? Thank you for
your interest and guidance through this new reality, Cynthia.
Note from Cynthia: Thanks for sharing this latest development
with what sounds like a radically improved foot situation for your
acquaintance--very cool! And these changes are truly not subtle in any
way, but rather shocking and astonishing and startling. Yet of course it
would be rude and inconsiderate to ask her anything about a previously
prosthetic foot--even though I suspect if you were so bold as to ask, she'd
likely think you were just confused.
Hey,
I saw your YouTube channel. And the subject of quantum physics always
interests me. My question is, can you use Quantum Jumping to improve
relationships, study better, improve confidence? Is it all about intention
and visualisation?
— Adithya
Dear Adithya,
The idea presented in my book, Quantum Jumps, is that all possible
versions of reality are within reach--and the key to attaining them is to
attain a relaxed, detached, energized (theta brainwave) state of mind
through meditation or self-hypnosis or something like that; focus on which
of the many possible realities you're selecting; and proceed onward with
your life as if you're now in that chosen reality. The book presents some
science to back up the assertion that this works, and has many exercises
that do show how to improve relationships, improve confidence, improve
mental clarity. In addition to intention and visualization (the second
step), it's vitally important to develop skill with the first and third
steps of detachment and acting 'as if.'
With love and thanks,
— Cynthia

Hi Cynthia,
I had wanted to ask you if, based on your experiences, as well as those of
others who have told you of their experiences, if and when we do get to
change our pasts, if we will have any memories of the new timeline, as well
as would we still remember the previous one? Having read your books and
some of the testimonies on your site, I'm inclined to think that we would
remember both. After all, how would you have known to write about the
changes that you had noticed, right? I think this for another reason too;
and tell me if you've ever experienced this.
— Daniel
Dearest Daniel,
Yes, we often do remember both the historically 'correct' memories as well
as the currently historically 'factually incorrect'. Sometimes those
memories come through almost like memories from a dream, slowly at first at
times, such as when noticing something seems strangely familiar, even
though it now makes no sense that it could have possibly occurred.
lots of love,
— Cynthia
___________
Cynthia,
Ma'am, what does "the observer" mean in QP? Does it mean us? And how we
perceive things/look at things? Also could you shed some light on the
power of our intention?
— Daniel
Dear Adithya,
There is a special meaning to the word 'Observer' in quantum physics, in
which selection of a method of measurement of a quantum system influences
what is subsequently observed. Methods of measurement typically do include
a person or persons at some point, so it does mean us--and the ways we
choose to observe / measure the world. Our intentions and our attention
direct the kinds of observations / measurements we make in the world.
lots of love,
— Cynthia
___________
Cynthia,
I checked your website, have you had any clients that were successful at
actually changing something in the past physically?
— Malak
Dear Malak,
The way I view such successes is not so much as 'changing the past' as
experiencing a transformed reality--in which past, present and future are
typically all transformed. Yes, I've worked with clients who've overcome
seemingly impossible health and other situations. The truth about
witnessing the past appear to change is that more likely what's going on is
that one has completely 'jumped tracks' to an adjacent reality. This sort
of thing happens every time there's a synchronicity, spontaneous remission
of disease, and many other things that are currently not considered to
involve changing the past--yet to me, it seems clear that this is what, in
fact, is happening.
With love and thanks,
— Cynthia
___________
Cynthia,
After a lot of experience throughout my life i have come to a conclusion
that this universe is a simulation.
Everythig is unreal.I think you have more knowledge than me in this
matter.So i have a query.
If the world is a simulation like a computer program then what could
probabaly be a hack for this computer program,like a cheatcode,with which i
may get anything i want.
— Anubhav
Dear Anubhav,
If this universe is a simulation, which I dearly hope is not the case (and
which honestly feels like an unsavory and dissatisfactory possibility to
me), then you could consider the cheat codes to consist of honoring the
highest spiritual truths as described in the perennial wisdom
philosophy. Such 'cheat codes' will likely not feel much like
cheating, since such things as cheating are antithetical to the perennial
wisdom philosophy.
With love and thanks,
— Cynthia
___________
Hullo Ma'am,
Can you suggest any(Quantum Jumping) method for studying well? I need to
study with a non attached mind and enjoy what I'm doing. Is it possible to
grasp things quicker, become more intelligent? I loved the method you
mentioned about healing relationships.
— Adithya
Dear Adithya,
There are a few things you can do to improve your ability to study well
that I mention in my book, Quantum Jumps. One is that you can
point your fingers to your head for a few moments; this increases your
mental clarity and cognitive abilities. Another is that you can
clench your hands into fists for a few seconds and then open your hands
wide for a few seconds--and repeat--while at the same time focusing on your
resolve to study diligently and practice good study habits. A third
excellent technique that is also mentioned in "Quantum Jumps" is to tell
yourself, "You've got this" before working on studying any material.

This book reduces pain and helps us heal by providing us
with powerful insights into how best to focus attention in our
lives--before, during, and after any crisis--to live our most meaningful,
precious lives. Dr. Nadel's book "The Five Gifts" helps us find the way to
find the ability to move forward when devastating hardships occur.
Nadel describes five gifts of: humility, patience, empathy, forgiveness and
growth that have the power to uplift us when we feel we've hit rock bottom
in our lives. The key to harnessing the power of these gifts lies
in recognizing that we humans are truly resilient, and quite capable of
recognizing that life's events can't torment us nearly as much as our own
thoughts and feelings about those events. What makes "The Five Gifts"
priceless is the wisdom Nadel conveys through first-hand descriptions of
survivors of a wide variety of tragedies that recount the remarkable ways
people have found to focus attention on what truly matters most, and
maintain clarity of heart and mind even when tempted to lose heart and give
up. Nadel herself is such a survivor, in addition to also being a
psychological counselor specializing in working with those who've lived
through disasters. I treasure her soulful honesty and genuine
heartfelt courage as she describes what she's lived through, and how she
has made use of the many brilliant tips she includes. I love the simple
elegance of how Nadel presents the five gifts, and then delves more fully
into each one in ways that clearly illustrate the benefits of accepting the
kinds of gifts one might at first not wish to receive. I love how
Nadel describes these gifts as strengthening our core, and shares her
secret doubts and fears during dark times in her life when it was almost
impossible to hold a clear vision of her thriving future self.
Nadel is an author who not only "walks her talk," but also lights the way
for all of us to benefit from five gifts capable of reducing our pain and
helping us heal. I adore Nadel's sense of humor as she writes, "No one
outside a religious order actually wants humility. Nor will you
find patience, empathy, forgiveness or growth high up on anyone's gift list
for the holidays. These Five Gifts are like those poor animals in
the shelter that keep getting passed over. Humility, patience,
empathy, forgiveness, and growth are unwanted because they break us
open--again. Seriously, haven't we been through enough?"
Yes, we may have just been through the worst time of our life so far, yet
there is an almost miraculous magic to choosing to accept these five gifts,
and that is breaking through the ego's control of how we see the world. As
Nadel succinctly sums it our relationship with these five gifts,
"Logically, and under ordinary circumstances, you would never be looking
for them. But when disaster strikes, these Five Gifts will help you
to heal more quickly." This extraordinary gem of a book is the perfect
gift for anyone you know who's physically survived some kind of crisis or
disaster, and who you might think would surely have 'gotten over it by
now,' but most likely is smiling on the outside and still reeling on the
inside. "The Five Gifts" is an outstanding book for anyone dealing
with grief of any kind, and anyone who's been a survivor of tragedy.
Highly recommended!
