GO FOR THE GOLD! Spiritual Lessons from the Olympics

(Credit ABC)

I love the Olympic games and as a clairvoyant I can’t help but watch as many of the athletes get into the “zone.” There are many lessons we can learn and it doesn’t take a professional psychic to point them out. As you watch the games you can easily see who has cleared their pictures and who hasn’t.

I’ve heard the commentators refer to an athlete who didn’t do well as having the ‘Olympic jitters’ but it’s more than that. The athletes must own their space, have certainty, clear any fear of failure and know with every fiber of their being they have the ability to reach their goals. They must know beyond a shadow of a doubt they have what it takes.

Every athlete participating has trained countless hours, qualified through other competitions and each of them is ready to go for the gold. While they represent their countries as part of a team they compete as individuals. They cannot let pictures of fear or failure creep into their performance. They must WANT that gold medal and KNOW they are ready. There is no doubt in the minds of those who actually win a medal. You hear it time and time again in the interviews; their goal is to go out there, stay focused and do the very best for themselves, their team and their country. In spiritual terms they must be in the “zone” and free from negative influences. They must find gold  to win gold. If you apply this to your own life you will indeed open up to golden opportunities!

You’ve trained for this moment your whole life!

You have lifetimes of experience (training) to draw upon. Consider that every moment of your life you are learning and in training for the next thing that comes along. As eternal spirit you have information from other lifetimes. Whatever happens in this current lifetime as spirit you’ve trained for it and you have the ability and the knowledge to get through it. Owning your space, standing in your truth (grounding) and surrounding yourself in a healing gold energy bubble gives you strength and certainty in your choices. Know and remind yourself that all you’ve gone through in your life is a part of training for whatever is next and that you’re ready no matter what it is! There is beauty in knowing because it brings your attention back from the future and calms both your spirit and body. You no longer have to fear or worry about the future or an outcome because you KNOW you can handle it! When doubt or fear comes to mind, re-focus and get back into your “zone”.

Spiritual Competition Destroys!

Competing in the Olympics, or anything else one competes in, is fine. It’s fun, we root for and support our teams and at times compete with ourselves in the sense of trying to get better but competition on an energy level is a different story. The energy vibration of competition destroys. This is a spiritual truth. Jealousy, envy, worrying about what someone else is doing or thinking you are ‘above’ someone else stops your spiritual growth. It will slowly eat away at you causing misery and in some cases disease. Spiritual competition takes your attention completely outside of you and stops the flow of your creative energy. Think of what would happen if instead of an athlete wanting to do their best, they were more concerned with the other guy? The shift in focus puts their attention on someone else and takes away from what they need to do. When your attention and focus is on you it helps center you so you can get access to your own abilities of inner strength and creativity.

There’s more than enough gold to go around!

Gold is a healing energy and, unlike the one Olympic gold medal per event, there is a limitless supply. Why would you want someone else’s gold vibration when you have your own? Picture a golden sun above your head and have it shine down on you. Allow it to fill you up until it fountains back out the top of your head and fully surrounds you in a bubble of golden light. All you have to do is visualize. As spirit you’ve trained lifetimes and have information for this moment. Remember you are spirit with the ability to find and access gold anywhere at any time.  Banish thoughts of doubt or fear. Gold is yours for the taking. Allow it to heal and protect you. Proudly stand on the winners podium surrounded in gold. Use this energy often to open the doors of golden opportunity. Are you ready to GO FOR THE GOLD?~Shine Your Light Debbie

YOU are Valuable and Contribute! Don’t think so? Read on….:)

Do you know the value of everything you do and every person you touch? Do you see the value of YOU? Did you know that even the most seemingly insignificant act of kindness is a valuable contribution to society? Your value goes well beyond having money and no matter what you do, you contribute and bring value to the world!

I’m very fortunate to have wonderful generous and loving friends and family but often I wish I had more time and money to give to the many organizations I would like to support. In a recent episode of Secret Millionaire I found myself marveling at the generosity of Chicago native Steve Kaplan as he stepped into the role of volunteer giving of his time and then presenting very generous donations to several worthy Chicago organizations (see below for website links).

Philanthropy is one thing but putting yourself in the shoes of people not as fortunate as you and living it for a week is altogether a different story. As I watched the episode (tears streaming down my face) all that kept going through my mind was “I wish I had enough money to do that”. This same weekend a dear friend went to an expo for the disabled where they offered animal therapy. After seeing the pictures and hearing his story I thought to myself “what an amazing person. I wish I could be like that”.

It got me to thinking about value and how each of us contributes in our own way. We all have something different to offer and everything we say or do is a valuable resource whether we know it or not. What each of us has to offer has value that goes well beyond our scope of consciousness. Do you see yourself as having value? Do you value all that you are and that your contribution is even more valuable than you might realize? Your value is MORE than how much money you have and the more you value who you are, your talents and what you have to offer the bigger your contribution becomes!

Who is to say the waitress at the diner is not a single mother raising a future millionaire who will create an organization to feed the hungry or give shelter to a homeless person? Who is to say my client who is a psychologist or a social worker friend, both of whom have dreams of working with abused women, won’t heal and empower themselves through sessions or words of encouragement to move forward and create a safe haven to help countless battered women? Who is to say that my dear friend who because of volunteering at an event for the disabled and now wants to get his PhD in Equine Therapy doesn’t go on to help an untold number of disabled people and bring them joy?

It is not what you DO, how much money you have or if you have the time or inclination to volunteer. You have value and contribute by doing what YOU do! There is great value in living and expressing your passion. You don’t have to be wishing you could ‘be more like’ or ‘have enough money’ or time to give. The things you do now and being true to who you are, these ARE the contributions because who is to say what the future effect of your words or deeds will be. Take a moment to think about the people in your life and your contribution. There is value in love and friendship and that love and friendship may be the very thing that allows another to heal and create great things! The children you raise, those who you mentor and those whom you inspire; You contribute to all of them and there is great value.

Do you see this value within yourself? Do you recognize how valueable you are? Do you see the value in small acts of kindness or words of encouragement? If you are passionate about helping and have the resources to give your time and money by all means volunteer or present that big check! That said, maybe it’s time you see your REAL net worth and how valuable you are. See and feel your value and the contribution you make every day of your life! ~Shine Your Light Debbie
