Mindfulness Meditation

Posted on 11 March 2010 by Dr. Karen

Deepak Chopra is one of the true Law of Attraction masters. I have enjoyed many of his books and videos and I thought I’d share one called Mindfulness Meditation. Our abilities to connect with that “quiet space” amidst a crazy busy life is key to manifesting our dreams. Our abilities to control our reaction to the thoughts that come up in our minds and choose other more peaceful thoughts is the real KEY to being successful in our manifesting.

Sounds weird, but it is all about MIND CONTROL.

So enjoy this lovely video by Deepak Chopra. Let me know what you think of it by commenting below.

Enjoy!

Understanding how the Haiti earthquake affects you (and vice versa)

Posted on 15 January 2010 by Dr. Karen

Why are we getting earthquakes? Isn’t it awful..all those people dying?

These are some of the questions I get asked. These are a loaded questions.

Let me ask you this: how did you feel when you learned about the lives lost in the Haiti earthquake? How did your body feel in the day(s) prior to, during and after the earthquake?

Why am I asking?

Because it affects you even if this is the first time you’re reading about it. As reported in Lynne McTaggart’s book, The Intention Experiment, any significant emotional shift in the planet experienced by a large number of people are felt all over the world as evidenced by the random event generator experiments. These machines are like a random toss of the coin. Without any intention being placed on them, they will split up the toss 50:50.

But when there is significant intention or similar thoughts shared by significant numbers of people, they no longer are RANDOM….to me that is proof that our thoughts hold great power to change matter.

Did you notice yourself feeling uneasy or irritable a day or two before the Haiti earthquake on the 12th of January? Did you feel tired on that day? Don’t be upset at yourself if you were out of sorts, most people were…but they may not have known WHY.

The answer to “why” are we getting so many earthquakes is not fully obvious, but there are many answers. See which ones resonate with you:

1. Mother earth needs to “let off steam” - as negative energy builds and builds it transforms or manifests into something physical. It could be a tumor or it could be an earthquake. Neither is judged “bad”, it is just a shift in energetic form.

2. It is an opportunity, spiritually, for people to connect as one (energetically as the random event generators would prove to us) and an opportunity for us to be more present and compassionate with those around us.

3. We are in the “dark” ages of our World Age as described by the Aztec and Vedic traditions and earthquakes, wars, famine, are just some of the things to expect during this time and through 2012. PASTE

4. It is the opportunity for some to rise above their current state of light into a higher state of being. It reminds me of the Canadian man who practically rebuilt a whole town’s homes after hurricane Katrina hit (with newer technology that would widthstand a future hurricane).

There is ONE thing I know for sure though and that is how you can help. Of course you can help with giving money in the disaster relief. Money, of course, is just another form of energy. If you’re feeling sad, confused or even depressed, then I need to warn you that your reaction is not in your best interest (nor the best interests of those who are in the midst of recovering from this natural disaster). Here’s why:

Since your thoughts generate “things” in the real world especially when they are added to similar thoughts from others all over the world, it is your responsibility to hold the energy of empowerment and light during a great time of stress. In other words, your feeling depressed and upset is NOT HELPING and is in fact hindering the healing of others.

That doesn’t mean that you do not feel genuine compassion and sadness in the moment as you connect with those who lost love ones. Of course you do. But at the same time, your job is to live your life to the fullest, to your greatest potential – to shine YOUR LIGHT so that it will empower all others.

One of my teachers used to say, “You will either inspire others with your greatness or infect them with your mediocrity”.

So as you go about your day, the prayer I’d like you to keep in your heart for those in Haiti is one of their recovery and health, as if it has already happened (that’s how you manifest!!!). If you can do that for them, you can do it for yourself too. So don’t “pray for” them in a way that “asks” for their healing, but instead pray in joy and gratitude for the healing that has already happened in your mind. Get it? 

I need your help in this regard. Our energies combined can make a bigger difference! Please let me know how you’re feeling by commenting BELOW!

In the meantime the Ask Dr. Karen box is back up on the website! For those that were looking for it, I appreciate your patience.

If you’d like to ask me a relationship or Law of Attraction questions, you can now fill in the form on the CONTACT page. If it is a question that hasn’t been answered before on my blog or radio show, then I’ll be posting the answer up in one of these two forums.

I love the newsletter I got today about “thinking positive”

Posted on 13 January 2010 by Dr. Karen

The message below is now one of my new favorites from bestselling author and spiritual teacher, Neale Donald Walsch. Why? Because it really hits me where it hurt (or used to hurt).

I was the BEST at “thinking positive”, but also ignoring the “elephant sitting in the middle of the livingroom”. His message below is for all of you who are great at “thinking positive” while your bank account, health and relationships are deteriorating and you’re not exactly tackling the “problems” head-on.

“On this day of your life, Karen, I believe God wants you to know…
…….that positive thinking does not mean turning into an ostrich.

Burying your head in the sand in the name of “staying positive” is not a good strategy. Wearing blinders rather than looking rightat what’s going on right now is not the way to create your vision for tomorrow.

Sculptors have to look at the block and begin cutting parts of it away before their vision emerges in the marble. Look directly at the block if you want to create the art.”

Love, Your Friend….
Neale

If you’ve enjoyed this, consider reading his latest book, When Everything Changes, Change Everything available at the Law of Attraction in Love  Bookstore.

Blessings,
Dr. Karen Kan

P.S. Would love your comments on how this message struck you! Have you ever been an ostrich?

What are your New Year’s Resolutions?

Posted on 31 December 2009 by Dr. Karen

Most of the time we beat ourselves up with making New Year’s Resolutions and then not following up with them. There is much controversy about HOW we should make our New Year’s Resolutions. Most of the teachers I read prefer to set  GOALS with deadlines.

Nevertheless it is a personal choice. See what is working for you and what is not.

Here are some tips I recommend:

1. Type it up with large pleasing font on a nice sheet of paper and paste it up in your workspace or somewhere like your bathroom mirror where you’ll see it every day.

2.Put “small” goals as well as large ones on the list. And if the list is too large and overwhelming, it isn’t going to help you…it will just depress you. Example, “Tell James at least one thing I appreciate about him every day”

3. If you’re goal-setting around habits, then make consistency the most important thing and give yourself some wriggle room and make sure you write down your successes: eg. Contact at least one sales lead every week for my network marketing company (even if you think you should do 50)

4. Be willing to revise your resolutions as you reach for your goals and dreams while at the same time staying focused on what you want to create.

If you want to read more on goal-setting per se, read this article by Mark Victor Hansen.

Comment below and let me know what YOUR resolutions are going to be!

Happy New Year!

Blessings,

Are you ready for Miracles?

Posted on 31 December 2009 by Dr. Karen

Tomorrow is very auspicious. We have a Blue Moon – in other words, not only do we have two full moons in one month, the full moon begins on the eve of a new decade…and there’s a lunar eclipse!

Get ready for synchronicities to fill your life. I’ve been experiencing a lot lately…and it isn’t just me. If you pay attention, you’ll know what I mean. I have so many stories to tell you I can’t possibly write it all here…but I’ll blog about them.

I was just up in Canada visiting my parents. They aren’t really “into” the Law of Attraction, but even they experienced miraculous synchroniticities that they shared. One such episode occurred when my mother went to Vietnam to visit the Twin Heaven bridge my great grandfather built years ago. There they met a well-dressed elderly woman with permed hair (very rare in Vietnam) who happened to be standing there (seemingly for no reason).

My mother decided to ask the short old lady (who reminded my mother of her own mother) about whether she remembered the special ointment my great grandfather had created (from a dream he had) which became famous around the country. She nodded yes and strangely enough even spoke English as she rubbed her tummy (the ointment aided stomach aches).

After the event, my parents were both convinced this woman was an Angel because of so many coincidences: she spoke English, had a perm and was short like my grandmother, and she happened to be there when my mother asked about the bridge and the ointment.

My mother found out later when she relayed the story to relatives that the description of the old lady matched one of her deceased aunts whom she never met before, who used to live in Vietnam! Wow!

My parents also encountered another synchronicity while in Hong Kong. They wanted to meet up with an old friend, but could not for the life of them contact him. They just about gave up. My mom had a party in her honor to attend. Sychronistically, the man they wanted to see was also being honored in the next room in the SAME restaurant.

Hong Kong is huge and has a zillion Chinese restaurants. What are the chances?

My dad said finally, “I’m beginning to believe there is no such thing as co-incidence.” This from my skeptical dad!

So here’s the news: those of us who have been working on manifesting our dreams and working on our personal growth are helping all others to do the same whether they want it or not! How awesome is that!

It is called the Holographic Universe. What I learn will seem to be magically transferred to every other living being who is energetically connected to me and vice versa. I have miracles of my own to share, but will do so on the blog because I’m running out of room here!

Suffice it to say that YOUR dreams are not far behind. If you don’t have dreams, then you’re not taking advantage of our connection. And it isn’t about me, it is about the consciousness of the entire world is shifting with lightning speed as we approach 2012.

Yes, there will be stragglers, but eventually they will be pulled along by the sheer momentum of our positive energy. It will look chaotic and messy along the way, BUT you will have synchronistic signs along the way.

I promise.

So when you make your New Year’s resolutions, make them good ones! (check out the blog for details)

Guru Advice: Just Frickin’ Do It!

Posted on 18 December 2009 by Dr. Karen

Here’s what came in my INBOX today from Neale Donald Walsch, one of my all-time favorite spiritual teachers:

On this day of your life, Karen, I believe God wants you to know… 
 ...that the next step is the most important step. Take it now. Do not wait.

Life is not going to come down there and sprinkle glitter dust on your shoulders to let you know that you are Good…or that you are walking the Right Path…or that you are making the Best Decision.

Take the next step. Right now. Stop waiting for a “sign” from the “gods.” Your sign is your intuition, wrapped in your desire. 

Hesitation is not a stopping place on the road to heaven.

I love the part about the “glitter dust”. Do you resonate with this message? I certainly do because I was the “poster child” for waiting for the perfect opportunity to show up in order for me to take action. In fact, if I wasn’t already guaranteed some sort of outer world “success”, I would shy away from the opportunity.

Take my favorite pasttime for example: figure skating. When I began, I had the not-so-lofty notion (I chuckle when I think of it now) that I was going to learn to skate once and for all (being Canadian and not knowing how to skate was terribly embarrassing to me!).

I was awful at skating! Terrible! OK, that’s a little harsh, but let’s just say that I was the second worst skater in the entire adult skating class and I was embarrassed. (The worst skater was the friend who convinced me to go with him).

I was about to quit when my husband at the time, the blessed gift he was in my life, gave me his opinion of my situation. He told me that I was one dimensional and that I was too scared to try something I didn’t already know I was good at, so he felt I should stick it out (and be OK with, in his words, “sucking” at something new).

Thankfully, I took his advice and stuck it out for 20 weeks. I found a fabulous new coach, who I’m still with today, and the rest is history. Several Gold medals and national recognition in my sport is the result of the Just Frickin Do It approach to life.

So if you’re waiting for a GRAND invitation to take the next step in your life, be it introducing yourself to the cute gal in the next office, or walking up and saying hi to the guy with the goo-goo eyes you see at the grocery store every week, stop waiting!

Just Frickin’ Do It! as my teacher T. Harv Eker would say.

Take action. Any action. Take the next logical step action. Yes it is scary sometimes, but believe me, it is WELL worth it!

For someone who was afraid of everything growing up (ME), I’ve become the embodiment of the opposite these days. You should have seen me flying on the Trapeze last summer.

So Just Frickin’ Do It. Don’t worry about falling down. If you do (like in skating), just get back up, correct and continue! The only true failures in this world are people who QUIT moving towards their dreams. Don’t let that happen to you.

I believe in you.

So Just Frickin’ Do It!

Blessings,

How to Help Someone in Crisis

Posted on 07 December 2009 by Dr. Karen

My partner, James, just told me about an old high school friend he just connected with on Facebook. She was lamenting that her daughter, who lost her dad in the military, has been in the hospital due to mental distress. He was asking me about what he could do to counsel his friend.

I suggested two things, the first of which was specific to James’ skill as a healer. I told him that he could do a distance Reiki healing on the daughter. He would have to sense telepathically whether she would accept the healing before proceeding (us healers don’t IMPOSE our healings on others if they don’t want it).

The second thing I suggested was for him to tell his friend to write daily journal entries (5 minutes is all that is required) stating all the things she appreciates about her daughter for at least 30 days in a row. Since she lives far away from her daughter, she cannot be by her side to comfort her, and of course as a mother she is worried.

When we try to help people, our worrying adds to their burden. Instead, we want to send a higher vibrational energy stream their way. This journaling exercise is a great way to do it.

So if you have someone you care about in a crisis, the best thing you can do without even having to tell them, is a daily appreciation exercise. This will help them feel better about themselves believe it or not.

I had a case where a patient’s son was suicidal. My patient lived far away so he was distraught he could not help his son. I had him do this exercise for 30 days straight. Very quickly, both the son and the patient got out of the crisis and his son did just fine.

Do not underestimate the power of energy and YOUR power to heal yourself and others. You have much to contribute to the world through your love. And via the Law of Attraction, what you emanate in love will come back to you many times over!

My dream partner and I just won six gold medals!

Posted on 12 October 2009 by Dr. Karen

K, sounds like I’m bragging. Mostly, I’m just really happy to share with you. My partner James and I just skated really well at the ISI Adult national figure skating championships and brought home 9 medals, six of them gold. To see the press release and the photos, just go to www.adultfigureskater.com. Feel free to comment!

Why am I sharing this with you?

Because I want you to know that YOU can have your dreams too. I want my stories to inspire you. For us, it wasn’t about winning gold medals. Those are nice. But it was about the challenge of seeing how “present” we could both be in our respective skating events.

Those that have been with me in a live event know that I like to say, “Whoever has the biggest energy, wins!” To be honest, I didn’t feel all that well all week, but I wanted to see how I’d fare by just focusing on the moment and the artistry I wanted to create out there for the audience.

Well, it worked.

For James, it was his first singles competition. After an initial stumble, he was able to focus and complete the rest of his program flawlessly, the best he’d ever done. Not only that, he looked “hot” in his skating outfit (he blushes when I say this to people because he usually dislikes wearing tight clothes – ha ha ha!)

Wow!

This Law of Attraction stuff/personal growth stuff really works!

Life isn’t perfect, but what’s really cool is that if you let go of perfection and are willing and open to experiencing whatever is going on to the fullest, you’ll be the happiest person alive!

Blessings,
Dr. Karen Kan

Hi, it’s Dr. Karen and I need your vote!

Posted on 07 October 2009 by Dr. Karen

Have you ever had the experience of something changing your life so profoundly that you wanted to share it with the world? Well, that happened to me after I attended Peak Potentials Millionaire Mind Intensive. Even though the focus was “money”, what I realized was that the REAL focus was about my RELATIONSHIP with money.

You see my relationship with money was on very “bad terms”. Little did I realize until I took that transformative three-day weekend course (which was practically FREE), that my negative thoughts about money would prevent me from fully manifesting abundance in OTHER areas of my life including health.

Well, I need your help because my teacher, T. Harv Eker, just created a video contest for us graduates. We really want to get the word out on just how important this personal growth work really is. So what I’d like you to do is simple:

Please go to my YouTube video: T. Harv Eker and Dr. Karen Karen: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VPJAxgIpVq8 and VOTE 5 stars AND write a few positive comments below! That’s it!

The more comments and ratings I get, the more likely my video will be chosen to win…which means the better I can serve everyone including YOU.

I would like to thank you in advance for helping me out!! It really means a lot!

Blessings,
Dr. Karen Kan
