HERE'S 
A SNEAK PEEK 

18. Express gratitude - Expressing gratitude on a daily basis is a very positive, fulfilling exercise to practice. Ways to express gratitude on a daily basis include: giving thanks for your food, expressing gratitude for yourself and others through prayer (as discussed earlier), complimenting others, and letting another person know that you are thankful for having them in your life. 
By sharing and expressing gratitude, you feel extremely satisfied and will become more consciously aware of the things that you truly appreciate in life.

19. Make yourself happy - What sort of things make you happy? The answer is usually different for everyone. You can do yourself a favor right now by making a long list of everything that makes you happy in life and acting on your listed items. Feeling and experiencing happiness in your life also will give you the powerful drive that it takes to make yourself more conscious.
20. Act on your desires - Simply having any form of desire will raise your consciousness. Desire encourages us to take action to advance consciously. The state of apathy, or not caring about your consciousness, will naturally lower your consciousness. Desire is a powerful way to raise your consciousness.
21. Boost your brain power and functioning - There are many helpful exercises that you can do to boost your brain power and overall level of functioning. One of my most popular articles, 50 Ways To Boost Your Brain Power, should get you on the right track if you are currently confused about the topic. Raising your level of consciousness will naturally boost your overall brain power, and boosting your brain power will raise your level of consciousness; both affect each other in equal proportion.
22. Take full control of your lifestyle - Are you living the lifestyle that you feel is most beneficial for your mental and physical wellbeing? Maybe there are certain bad habits that you need to get rid of or certain good habits that you’d like to implement in your daily routine. Don’t be afraid to act now and make necessary positive changes in your lifestyle to help you take full conscious control.
23. Choose empowering beliefs - In the process of changing beliefs, choose beliefs that are empowering to your soul. A good way to know what belief will be empowering is to simply ask yourself how you feel about adding the new belief. If you feel a strong connection with a new belief, such as feelings of excitement, it will probably be a very good choice of a belief to implement. Make a conscious effort to purge all beliefs that areless than satisfying. Understand also that as you become a more conscious human being, changing your beliefs will become a much easier, more natural process.
24. Avoid physical fighting and abuse - Physical fighting stems from emotional misunderstandings, hatred, and negative emotional expressions. Fighting can be described as the opposite of peace. Physical fighting and other forms of abuse can really do a great job at distracting us from becoming more conscious human beings. Anything that you can do to stop physical fighting and abuse will ultimately make you and the individuals involved more consciously aware.
25. Be aware and accepting of your emotions - No matter your current emotions, you will profoundly help yourself if you are accepting of them. Going through life resisting your emotions and trapping them inside yourself makes life much more difficult. Trying to escape from our emotions lowers our awareness. When you accept what you feel and consciously understand why you feel a certain emotion, your level of consciousness rises.
26. Speak compassionately - When having conversation with others, do you choose your words wisely? Or are you the type of person who could care less what you say? The truth is, people who choose their words wisely and consciously think during conversation are the ones who show greater respect for themselves and more compassion for others. Make a conscious effort to speak compassionately and positive results will follow.
27. Think positive, act positive, be positive - Being a positive influence sets a good example for others and for yourself. Positivity and states of being positive are direct effects of raising your consciousness. I highly recommend trying to be a more positive person in all areas of life; you will notice and feel the beneficial changes in your awareness.

LET IN MORE LOVE, PEACE and JOY IN 2012

HAPPY NEW YEAR FROM 
HEART AND SOUL

In Service of Older Adults

Service with Respect and Compassion goes a Long Way.

Working with clients in their home on a day to day basis can be a great joy, if you love the work. I find it is vital to have good boundaries and to give them their needed space and independence, balanced with compassionate oversight and care. I watch for the little successes and accentuate the positive and I find most older adults really appreciate this. Each one has a history, a personal journey that makes them unique and in my experience, sometimes even a little eccentric.  I love that about them!

I truly value the generation of my parents and grandparents. Their time was one of the best to be alive and to have worked and raised a family. Their generation saw civilizations being built from the ground up, not only in the US but around the world. Their generation gave us such great talent, inventions, entertainers, writers, artists, businesses - whole industries were created. 


I enjoy discovering little eccentricities about my clients as I give them excellent care, respect and a sense of safety. Their past experiences led them to who they are today. I sometimes feel like a keeper of the past, a preserver of the creations, stories, sufferings and sacrifices they made, to get to the here and now.  I want to offer them a sense of pride for their entire life span - past to the present.  My goal is to help them be their best now, allowing them to tell their stories well and in their most vulnerable state, to have the freedom to feel, give and receive love with their family and friends.

I place the utmost importance on their well-being and I am convinced a person can receive great care, safety and security in their home, thought their senior years.
