“You have value, you are important, you matter and your life is to be lived exclusively by you.”

From “Energetic Invocations: A Book of Vibrational Change,” Part Three: “People,” page 110,  www.EnergeticInvocations.com 

You are important and you do matter. If no one has ever told you this, now somebody has. So get comfortable feeling, believing and knowing that: You do matter.

Every day, take a few hearty doses of reminding yourself that as your daily medicine. Build your moments remembering that you do matter and surround yourself with that energy rather than spending your time complaining, expecting, hoping or waiting. Thoughts about what happened in the past or what could happen in the future are inconsequential to your right now. 

You have value, you are important, you are someone and You do matter. Your life is yours, exclusively. So, what can you imagine, for you, and how do you want to live your life, now?

“Your real currency is more than society’s definition . . . it is not just about money. How do you define your currency in each and every interaction you have?”

From “Energetic Invocations: A Book of Vibrational Change”, Part Two: “Journey”: “What is my currency?” www.EnergeticInvocations.com 

It is alluring, mesmerizing and hypnotic, especially when in movement. But is plain old money truly your currency? Can your value really be measured by metal, paper or plastic, only?

Sure, money brings friends, opportunities and hearty social calendars. But money also brings lack. Because if your currency is only money, then how much is enough and will you be fulfilled by just that or still want more?

What matters when money is your prime focus? More money, and that means more happiness, right? But when that is spent, what’s left? We all want to feel more pulsating in our veins and pushing us to the edge.

But isn’t “more” more than just money? In every interaction there is a transaction of your value. What are you basing that on and allowing others to obtain in return? If "more” is not enough to take to the bank that matters, then you should be reevaluating how you define your currency, your value, your worth.

“There is always another way to be happy, not just someday down the road, but now.”

From “Energetic Invocations: A Book of Vibrational Change,” Part Four: “Environment,” page 126, www.EnergeticInvocations.com

Is happiness just a state of mind? If so, what state are you choosing to live in? Because you are the only one who can do the work to either belly flop or expertly dive into the idea of happiness.

If you are expecting your happiness to come from someone else you may be disappointed. Then you are just waiting for that person to fix your problems and tell you what to do and how to live. And that is not healthy for either of you.

If you can only be happy when you have a specific item or when a certain resolution occurs, you are drowning in your own mirage. Most often that kind of happiness ties you into a vicious cycle of lack. 

If you are adopting someone else’s definition of happiness and are wanting what others have, why? Instead, look within and determine what your true definition of happiness is. Then gracefully move toward it.

“Eastern thinkers, mystics, Quantum Physicists and Buddhists have all prophesized that this moment is all there is.”

From “Energetic Invocations: A Book of Vibrational Change,” Part Five: “World,” page 138, www.EnergeticInvocations.com

Big deal, right? But if this moment is all there is would you still waste it thinking about whatever it is you are rehashing over and over in your brain? 

Would you continue to beat yourself up with psychological insecurities and persist on mind dumping your insignificant thoughts, on everyone? Would you choose to temper your vices with limitations or would you let them run amok?

What if now is all that mattered? Not today, yesterday, one hour from now or six years from now, but right now. Are you willing to be present for it?

Be here, awake, alive and pulsating. See, hear and imbibe all that is in front of you and around you. What are you waiting for?

“Once you know the impact of your words and your thoughts on your health, you can no longer beat yourself up, nor can you beat others up with those words and thoughts.”

From  “Energetic Invocations: A Book of Vibrational Change,” Part One: “Self,” page 43, www.EnergeticInvocations.com

Are your words yours or is your mind treating you like a puppet? Is it opening your mouth, guiding your actions, and stabbing you in the back to open your eyes? Is it telling you what to say, what to do, where to look and how to sit?

If your words are not your own, then you are the dummy. You are somewhere but nowhere because your every move is being controlled. Projecting your sound, causing sadness and pain, your mind is pulling the strings and you are letting it.

But now you know. So will you watch what you say, carefully choosing each word? Will you struggle to be in every moment, rather than allowing yourself to be manipulated from behind? You are aware now so you cannot be without expression.

Know how powerful your spoken words and thoughts are and how much they can impact yourself and others. This is your journey, but it is also all of ours. It is time to be responsible and stop unhealthy cycles, so choose not to be the dummy.

“Energetic Invocations: A Book of Vibrational Change” is about changing your thoughts and beliefs, and working with the energy surrounding them, as a way to change your life.  (www.EnergeticInvocations.com)

So, what are you thinking about right now? Are you setting up scenarios and giving your characters dialogue in order for things that haven’t occurred yet to work out in your favor? Or are you methodically plotting vengeance for something you think may happen but hasn’t? 

Good, bad, positive and negative, our thoughts shape us: who we are, how we live our life and what we will or will not do. While we are busy utilizing brain cells to orchestrate neural synapses cranked with chemical compounds generated by feelings, we mix our energy and intent and project our thoughts.

In turn, we may be enlightened, frustrated and consumed by our thoughts as they create our world. Is that kind of thought production helping you feel empowered and resilient or more lost and disheartened?

Make an effort to change your thoughts and beliefs and work with the energy surrounding them. Start by stripping beliefs from your inner world and finding your truth. From there you can start to change your life and the world in which you live.

“Who is the one person you can change? You!”

From “Energetic Invocations: A Book of Vibrational Change,” www.EnergeticInvocations.com

If you wait in line to get your coffee every morning, sit in traffic to get anywhere, listen only to what you are told, join every cause when pressured, and compete with every schmo around you, then you are participating in everyone else’s illusion. Face it, when you have a cranky day and everything pretty much sucks, no one really steps in to do anything to change it. 

It really is up to you, because: The only person you can change is you. Instead of being bullied to follow suit, take a hard look at who you are being and how you are living. Map out your beliefs and choices and empower and motivate yourself to change what you want to change.

It’s that simple and there are a lot of us out here inspiring each other to do this. As we work hard processing our own crap, we move into fulfilling lives. 

As we change ourselves, we change our world and the world around us. So, hang out with us or stay in everyone else’s illusion. It’s your choice.

“Passion should not be derived from being needed.”

From  “Energetic Invocations: A Book of Vibrational Change,” Part Two: “Journey,” page 70, www.EnergeticInvocations.com

Are you devoured by relationships or do you devour them? If yes, then commitment, for you, may be unbridled intensity, unrestricted devotion, and relentless need. If that works and your life is fulfilled, so be it.

But if you start to suspect that your own blood is no longer running through your veins, you may feel like everyone else’s needs have bitten into your own. Instead of your passion propelling you into the life you desire, it could be committing you to everyone else’s life instead. 

Relationships that bear unreasonable responsibility collapse your own commitment to yourself. Incessantly depending upon someone or being dependent upon is engaging in unhealthy paralysis, not self-care.

If you feel disconnected, unfulfilled and like you have lost who you are, ask why? Then, rise to the occasion and face your challenges and obstacles as a part of living your own journey, not someone else’s.

“Where are you stuck and what beliefs are holding you there? How do you create everything that occurs because of this belief?”

From  “Energetic Invocations: A Book of Vibrational Change,” pages 12-13, www.EnergeticInvocations.com

Do you buy into everyone else’s beliefs? Do you allow them to imprison your life and hold the real you captive? You will not know if you do until you take a good hard look at how you are living. Or if you are living your own life, at all. 

Excavating deeper inside of you than you ever have before can be excruciating, exhilarating, shocking, painful, joyful and enlightening. You may feel scared or alone, but don’t. Instead, celebrate your courage and know that there are a lot of us out here taking the same kind of journey, for ourselves. 

Every day we work at uncovering our own truths. We examine layers of beliefs we may have acquired during our childhoods, friendships, relationships, work experiences, and daily living. With awareness, we move from where we were once stuck and stock our shelves with new possibility.

It is a process and the most important work you will ever do. And, it is completely for you. So, isn’t it time you freed your own truth, and freed You?

“If you feel supported and empowered you could be surrounded by people like you. If you feel tired and like you don’t fit in, you might not.”

From  “Energetic Invocations: A Book of Vibrational Change,” Part Three: “People,” page 103, www.EnergeticInvocations.com

So, why are you looking here for answers? Why aren’t you looking around you? Who is beside you and do you really want them to be there? 

If you are always worried about fitting in, then you are the one attracting the riff-raff. If you like the attention or lack thereof, then do nothing. If you don’t, then do something.

Start with yourself. Who are you being and who are you really? Are you respecting who you truly are or are you pretending to be someone else? And in turn, are you just folding into the crowd letting everyone else call the shots and take the spotlight?

Cut yourself some slack and take the time to investigate the truth of who you really are. You are indeed worth it and no one else can tell you your truths, except you. So stop posting what everyone else wants to see and instead, step into the glorious immensity of who you really are!

“Your were meant to be you.”

From  “Energetic Invocations: A Book of Vibrational Change,” Part One: “Self,” page 16, www.EnergeticInvocations.com

You were meant to be you; beautiful, amazing, brilliant, powerful You. If you are too busy trying to be someone else, ask yourself why? Are you trying to fit in?

Why bother wasting your life fitting into someone else’s cookie cutter mold? Instead, be the best version of yourself that you can be. 

You were meant to be you, just you. However you look, speak, move and are, you were meant to be you. So know that, work on yourself and dissect your beliefs to find out if they are truly yours or someone else’s, that may be disrupting your life. 

Think for yourself, get to know yourself, compete with yourself, trust yourself and celebrate yourself. Be yourself. Take a hold of your life and live it with gusto because it is time to be the best version of you that you can be!

“There are times during our journey where life becomes so uncertain and we question where we are and what we are doing.”

From  “Energetic Invocations: A Book of Vibrational Change,” Part Two: “Journey,” page 49, www.EnergeticInvocations.com

Have you ever wanted to run far away from everyone and everything around you, just for a change?

But then, you remember you have responsibilities, people that rely on you, and things you just have to get done. So you trudge through the molasses of your life as uncertainty gnaws at your thoughts, making you worry and feel like crap.

When things get messy and over-the-top, it is difficult not to want to question everything about your life and how you are living. And then, it is difficult not to want immediate change.

After all, this is your life and life is change, so something has to change, doesn’t it? Your journey is occurring for you, so by asking more questions you uncover your truths. Choose to participate in your life rather than sitting at the sidelines waiting for someone else to show you the way. Change yourself, and in return, your life and your world will change.

“The more powerful you become at exhibiting self-care the more your environment will change.”

From “Energetic Invocations: A Book of Vibrational Change”, Part One: “Self”, page 30, www.EnergeticInvocations.com

You are powerful. Sometimes, you might not feel like you are, but you are. You are a living, breathing amazing individual with unlimited potential. You can create, participate, move, grow, learn, share and expand. You can decide what you want to do, where you want to go, who you want to be with and how you want to focus your thoughts.

So don’t allow yourself to convince yourself otherwise! You are powerful, so allow yourself to exhibit self-care.

Self-care is not being selfish, demanding, judgmental, covetous or self-centered. It is not hurting yourself or others, or running your life on guilt, pity and drama. Self-care is taking the time to understand who you are and what you want. It is trusting the wisdom of your inner self and living from that.

The sooner you exhibit self-care, the sooner your environment will change, for you. So, choose you and celebrate what happens!

“Why are you looking outside yourself to fix your problems? You change your world by changing yourself.”

From “Energetic Invocations: A Book of Vibrational Change”,  www.EnergeticInvocations.com 

It is so difficult sometimes to stay positive, especially when all around you just doesn’t seem to make sense. Maybe yesterday the world didn’t feel so chaotic, but perhaps today, it does. So, what do you do?

Looking outside yourself to fix your problems seems to only make everything worse. There are days when no one seems to show up to help, to listen, to care. And so nothing changes.

Why are you looking outside to fix your problems? Instead, take a trip within. Teleport with inspirational music, a powerful book, or time with a close friend. Change your energy and immerse yourself in the knowledge that You are the only one you can change.

Doing the work to understand who you are and what your world is is important. And when you keep at it no matter how difficult it is, you move deeper inside yourself to find your truths. No one else can tell you what your truths are. Only you can. And when you start uncovering them, you change yourself, and in turn, you change your world.

“What defines you? Where does your sense of self come from?”

From “Energetic Invocations: A Book of Vibrational Change”, Part One: “Self”, page 16, www.EnergeticInvocations.com

Is who you are set in stone? What defines you and how do you and others use that to fabricate your life? Is that the truth of your sense of self, or is there something more, to You?

There is something more to You. You do matter and it is time you started living from that truth. Look at your beliefs and find if they are truly yours or if they are a hand-me-down jacket you keep wearing day in and day out.

Admit it, it is quite worn, tattered and not very flattering, isn’t it? So why do you keep wearing it?  Stop watching everyone else from a distance, agreeing to be defined by their terms, as you wear their labels. 

If you are just hanging on the ledge still squawking about your life it is time for you to define yourself. However you want to, define yourself, now, for you and only You.

“Our physical and energetic presence is affected by our thoughts which help direct chi, our life force energy.”

From “Energetic Invocations: A Book of Vibrational Change”, Part One: “Self”, page 29, www.EnergeticInvocations.com 

Chi is life force energy. It moves through our energetic beings, our physical bodies, our blood. It is alive. But are you alive? Right now, are you aware that you are alive? And will you remember that in five minutes, one hour, 2 days?

Stop being a pitiful being. You are here, whether you want to be or not. You are breathing, whether you are aware of every breath or not. And you are somehow present, whether you are mindful of it or not. 

So, screw all the drama and distractions around you that are making you forget that you are alive. Why don’t your thoughts remind you that You ARE alive?! 

Embrace being alive. Not how everyone else is doing it, but how YOU want to do it. Show up for yourself and get the truth of who you are! Stop worrying about fitting in and how everyone else sees you. How do you see you? That is the question you should be asking, thinking about, answering and living. Be alive! What are you waiting for?
