Today, with rapid changes occurring in business, one of the most valued services is strategic consultation. To survive, today one must have a business, service, product, book or type of media that connects to the marketplace in a very tactile way–it must reach the consumer where he or she lives, works, plays or interacts via the web. It should appeal to the head and the heart.  Furthermore, it has to have media appeal and wherever possible, adhere to new standards of environmental sustainability, global consciousness and social responsibility.

"Jackie Lapin changed my life. We spent two hours talking and as a result she helped me repackage myself as a Business Development specialist. She helped me see my skills in an entirely new way and it opened incredible new doors for me in the way of business opportunities, clients and income." –-Kelley O'Hara, Business Development

 

“After a 45 minute conversation with Jackie about two books I am currently writing, I finally had a tangible direction and at least half a dozen strategic ideas that I can wrap my head around. Jackie’s no-nonsense approach and marketing experience gave me a focus and approach that I know will yield incredible results. Completing the two projects and diving into the book proposals doesn’t seem nearly as daunting. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Can’t wait to finish my first set of action steps and finally see myself moving forward!”--Anita Pathik Law, author, The Power of Our Way; A Path to a Collective Consciousness

What if Money Were No Object and You Had All of the Time in the World—What Would You Do in 2009?

 

As you begin to embark on an exciting new year, I’d like to encourage you to breath in the possibilities! Now is the time to release any of the pain and struggle from 2008, unhook yourself from fears related to the economy and your financial status. Let go of problems with family and relationships. Forgive yourself for judging yourself and finding yourself falling short of who you want to be. Release and breathe!

 

You have a great opportunity to start anew as we usher in the 2009. Let’s wipe the slate clean and ask the wonderful question: What if money were no object and you had all the time in the world? What would your 2009 look like?

 

Why should we do this exercise? Because it’s the perfect way to start visioning and Consciously Creating your near term future—and maybe long term. So what would be in your plans if you could do anything you want with your time and energy?

 

Here’s what I would do if my bank account overflowed with cash, my financial future was set and all of my debts and bills were paid: I would be out leading people in major United World Healing Vision-In events to set the course for the world’s future. I would continue to travel all over the world teaching The Art of Conscious Creation in seminars, speeches and lectures. As I travel I would be taking stunning photos for my Lapin Gallery photo website, and sharing this wonderful experience with my incredible lover and friend who has come into my life. I’d be enjoying the fantastic success of my latest three books, while at the same time I’d be taking plenty of time to rest and relax in nature, read, exercise, do yoga and live in the moment. Furthermore, I would be giving my time, leadership skills and money to worthy causes, organizations and individuals– helping people of little means and opportunity live more empowered, directed, abundant and prosperous live.

 

Now what would your life look like?

 

  • Consider where you would live.
  • Whom you would be with?
  • How you would spend your time—both leisure time and constructive time?
  • Would you still work and if so, what would you be doing?
  • What causes you would take up and how that would manifest?
  • What would you want to learn or teach?
  • What creative endeavor or outlet would you pursue?
  • What recreational experience would you like to have?
  • What would you want to travel to see or do?
  • What do you want more of in your life?
  • What would your relationship be like?
  • What would be different about your relationship with your family?
  • What kinds of friends would be in your life?
  • How would you manifest greater health and vitality?
  • What spiritual or meditative practices would you adopt or do more often?
  • What would you do to increase your personal frequency, be more positive and release negative vibrations such as fear?

 

I suggest that you take some time before New Year’s eve and consider these questions. Because they can create a blueprint for next year. Now, not everything is likely to come to pass unless perhaps you immediately win the lottery, but you are putting your “wish list” into the cosmic Santa and that allows him to get the elves working on it. Some elements may begin to manifest or being evolving in the direction you desire. However, if you don’t do this, you are at the whim of whatever unconscious frequencies you are transmitting and who knows what will turn up in your life in 2009!

 

Take this time and put these very important thoughts on paper, and then look back one year from now and see how many of them have started to come to fruition!

 

My dear friend: May you Consciously Create Everything You Desire and Yearn For in 2009!    

 

5 Tips on How to Not Let Your Relatives Ring Your Holiday Bell

Are you one of those people who dread the holidays? Last minute shopping, decorating disasters, difficult people to buy for, demanding kids—and most of all the run-ins with relatives!

 

If you're anticipating a rerun of previous years where your relatives made you crazy and your holidays were filled with headaches, then you are sure to experience that again this year. Because the energy you put into dreading and anticipating will pave the way for more of the same. The energy—also known as the vibration—that you project in the world will manifest the reality you imagined.

 

However, you can begin to change all that just with your thoughts. You can use  “personal frequency management” and visualization to manifest a truly happy holiday and keep the joy in the holiday season. By Consciously Creating your day–juggling work, shopping, cooking, tree trimming, kids, the management of those pesky relatives etc–you can have the kind of holiday season you desire effortlessly and without hiccup.

 

Here are five tips for creating “Relative Harmony” for the Holidays:

 

  1. Throw Out the Love Net

Well before they show up at your door, when you begin planning your holiday, send your “love net”—your high vibration loving energy–out to your relatives—and keep doing it throughout the holiday season. Feel love toward them even in the most trying times. Know that love is patience and understanding. Plenty of loving energy can head off, diffuse and transmute negative energy emanating from your relations. Ask for an unending supply of loving energy to pass into you from the Universe and through you to your family members.

 

  1. Visualize

Take some quiet time each day and visualize just how wonderful your time with your relatives will be. In your mind, see them helping you instead of criticizing, offering support, staying out of the way, picking up after themselves, volunteering instead of demanding, loving the gifts you have picked for them, finding ways to make your time together joyful and loving. Relish the emotions of these wonderful reunions. Thank the Universe in advance for granting this incredible camaraderie, goodwill, grace and warmth.  Then go ahead and visualize the rest of your day going smoothly, too!

 

  1. Stay in Your

    High

    Frequency

    Range

      Whatever happens, do not allow your relations to pull you into the low frequency range of anger, frustration, bitterness or regret.  Stay in your high frequency states of love, contentment, joy, compassion and generosity –play music and tune out negativity, focus on those who appreciate what you are offering, do something creative that serves your soul. If you are being bombarded by negative energy—excuse yourself and go do something yummy just for you—take in a movie, go for a walk, play with your puppy, give yourself a bubble bath, shoot some hoops.

 

  1. Redirect Them into Helping you in a Good Way

If you know that they are likely to be under foot, in your way or just over-helpful in the wrong ways, have a list in advance of things you would like them to do to help you in a “good way.”  They’ll feel good about being able to help, and making you pleased, and you will manifest goodwill on all planes.

 

  1. Give Santa Those “Hot Buttons” and Let Him Take Them Back to the North Pole

      You can do all of the above four things, but if you allow your relatives to push those “Hot Buttons,” you’ll be back where you started. Make a conscious decision that you are giving those Hot Buttons to Santa—as your gift to yourself. Release those previous memories of pain and angst with your relations and start fresh. If they start down the old path, surprise them and don’t engage! Let go of the mind-chatter in your head that gets you crazy and allows them to get your goat. Just decide NOT to go there. Instead just keep telling yourself, you deserve joy, peace, goodwill and good, kindly relatives at the holidays! And they just might turn out to be what you imagined!

 

Actor Bill Cosby once said “I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody." Please yourself during this holiday season and you will truly have a Happy Holiday!

“Choosing” Our Future

As each of us takes on the mantle of Conscious Creator, we begin to become aware of the thoughts we have let overtake us, the emotions that have previously ruled us and the words we use to imprison us. As newly-birthed Conscious Creators, we learn that we can indeed counter these powerful negative forces by consciously willing ourselves to think, feel and speak differently, to raise our personal frequency through choice.

 

And in raising our frequency, we vibrate the positive energies that create greater harmony and ease in our lives, influence others in positive ways, and provide a smooth, easy, speedy path for manifesting what is in our hearts.

 

And so we might find ourselves reframing our thoughts and words into far more positive statements of possibility, opportunity, faith and confidence. Indeed we often may find affirmations a valuable tool in making these changes, by saying such vital and impactful words as “I am….” This is a compelling practice that truly helps shift our world view, and allows us to grow into who we want to become. Instead of focusing on the negative, we now also go about our daily lives with great intentions of positive declarations, instead of focusing on the negative. We often say we “will” do something, or we “want” to take action.

 

But while these are all very important positive and valid steps toward becoming a Conscious Creator and Master Manifestor, there is one word choice that is even more powerful—because it implies a conscious will…and that is to say “I choose to…”

 

By saying these simple three words “I choose to…,”  you are telling the Universe that you are taking responsibility for your actions, that you are deliberating going down this path and you are signaling to the Universe that you desire to attract its help in reaching the preferred outcome.

 

For example, here are the kinds of statements that are powerful incentives for the Universe to help you achieve what you have selected:

·         “I choose to” open my heart, be more compassionate and look at everyone else with the knowledge that we are one.

·         “I choose to” to be more abundant in my giving and my receiving.

·         “I choose to” be open to receive love, support, compliments, joy, respect and wisdom.

·         “I choose to” be healthier and more disciplined in my self-care.

·         “I choose to” be more confident and willing to speak up for what I need in my job and in my relationships, but to do this with grace and consideration for others.

·         “I choose to” release my fears and trust the Universe.

·         “I choose to” make wiser choices about the people with whom I spend my time.

·         “I choose to” eat only those foods today that are nutritional and valuable to my body, and in my highest good.

·         “I choose to” to love and respect myself today.

·         “I choose to” to express my emotions in a healthy and appropriate manner, so that they free me from imprisonment.

·         “I choose to” to have a positive and healthy relationship with my parents and to forgive them for their unconscious actions.

·         “I choose to” to be a powerful attractant for abundance, and to show the Universe I am worthy of its gifts.

·         “I choose to” be more patient with my children today, regardless of how they behave and what I am doing at the time.

·         Etc…

 

See how much more power these words produce? You are standing tall and proud when you make a choice that is right for you. Proclaim that choice! And when you do, two things happen, you are consciously aware that you have made a commitment that you must now live up to, and the Universe sees the seriousness of your intent and supports you. 

 

Choose to choose! Show the Universe that you are truly conscious of your thoughts, emotions and actions. Let your choice be your ticket to a life of your design.  

What Would My Soul Do?

 

 

 

 

 

Most of the time when we are faced with choices and decisions, we anguish over them because of all of the baggage that we have built up over the years. Our decisions are made more difficult because of fears, anxieties, past memories and other emotions that press in from all corners. We allow our mind chatter, mistrust and self doubts to project all kinds of negative consequences and these either cause indecision, delayed decision or the wrong decision. Even if we make the right decision, we have anguished over it and suffered the painful process of sorting through the baggage before we get to the relief of commitment. And then, even, we may second guess ourselves.

 

Now just imagine that you were your soul. Your soul is filled with light and joy! This incredible being vibrates with love and peace. It is completely trusting in the Universe to guide it, and has at hand the faith that every decision is one that will lead to its highest good. And if the decision doesn’t appear at first to be a clear path to expansion, than the soul knows that this is a valuable lesson that will redirect it to the light. This soul has a knowingness, it taps into the Zero Point or Unified Field to gain information that allows it to make a good decision, it relies on an intuition that is always right. The soul is a repository of integrity and honesty, making choices that show honor for its existence and honor for the other souls in which it comes in contact. This soul recognizes that we are all one and that there is no separation between beings, so it blesses each contact with another soul with love, kindness and compassion. It sees in each and every other being that soul’s dignity and demonstrates appreciation for the path it has taken.

 

Essentially, your soul is a clean slate that brings only its joy and love to the party. It doesn’t have all of the other baggage that your earthly human life has amassed. It is free of all restrictions, pain, anquish and limitations. All it asks is “does this lead me to expansion, light and love?”  

 

So, as you go about your life, why not ask “What Would My Soul Do?”  Just let go of all of the other mind chatter, pair back to basics and ask this one simple question: “What Would My Free, Expansive, Happy Spirit Do In This Circumstance?”  

 

Get quiet, go deep into yourself and just open the door for your soul to answer.

 

Unencombered by all of the worries, anxieties and history, your soul can make a clear decision based on your highest good. With the freedom of not being weighed down, it can fly! It will soar with the knowledge of the right decision, guided by the Universe, embraced by God. Note how this feels to you in your emotional core! Clear, joyful, easy, peaceful, confident, relieved? That’s what you should be feeling if your soul takes the lead. 

 

Now you may still have to consider the consequences to others close to you when you make your decision, but at least you will have the wisdom of knowing what your spirit believes is right for you before you make your final commitment. And this clear knowledge and wisdom should be given the weightiest consideration. If you must compromise your soul’s guidance to accommodate the circumstances, than at least use this wisdom as a compass to where you ultimately want to go.  And begin Consciously Creating a good outcome for the decision you have to make and for an even better opportunity in the future to fully implement your soul’s guidance.  

 

“What Would My Soul Do?” Whether this is about a relationship, a career move, a financial decision, a health matter, or anything else…This one question can simplify your life, allow you to drop away all of the inessentials that hold you back when you are faced with a situation, enable you to see more clearly what is truly in your highest good, focus on what is really important, be decisive, and blaze a trail to a happier, more productive, more relevant and more soul-satisfying life.

Create Your Fantasy Vacation!

 

There's still a little time left in summertime!  The sun is warming you, the birds are chirping (I seem to have an aviary in my backyard—each of my potted plants has a nesting mother bird in it.)  The beach beckons.  Nature calls you to its alter.  Your thoughts turn to frolicking with your lover, your children, and your friends.  The movie theatres are filled with summer blockbusters and whimsical art house films.

As you are thinking these wonderful thoughts, you’re probably sitting at your desk, with that big chain around your ankle!

So let’s create our fantasy vacation!  Let’s create the visualization that will open the door for the vacation that you crave.  Let your imagination soar!  Feel free to get out the travel magazines to set your imagination free.

So where are you going?  Wandering beautiful Paris, enjoying the crystal islands of Greece, stalking game with your camera in Africa, touring the U.S. national parks, climbing Machu Pichu, surfing in Australia, exploring exotic corners of the globe?

With whom are you going?  With your husband, wife or life partner?  With your fantasy lover who is on the way?  With your children?  Your parents?  Your girlfriends or guy friends?  With someone you wish was more than a friend?  Or even happily alone!

Where do you want to stay?  In a 5-star resort?  On a houseboat?  In a converted castle?  In a tiny village?  In a cabin?  In a tent?  In an eco-resort?  In a beachside villa?  In an over-water bungalow?

What do you want to do when you get there?  Completely relax and become toast?  Sightsee everything!  Take a tour?  Walk or hike the area?  Photograph?  Visit the best eateries?  See how the locals live?  Try all the adventures—parasailing, horseback riding, diving, bungee jumping, play among the manna rays, swing in the tree tops?  Meet other singles?  Check out the nightlife?  Go to museums?

What do you want to take with you beside your sunblock?  Your telescope?  A novel you’ve been meaning to get to?  Your golf clubs?  Your tennis racket?  The list of collectibles you want to acquire?  Your iPod?  Your camera?  Your pet?

Where do you want to shop and what do you want to shop for?  The souk? The authentic crafts market?  The antique mart?  The jewelry factory?  The rum factory?  The local farmer’s market?  The art dealers?  The t-shirt shop?

What do you want to do to pamper yourself or how do you want to be pampered?  Have a luxurious massage?  Go to the spa?  Read all day in bed with breakfast delivered?  Sit on the porch with your favorite music playing?  Cuddle with your lover in a hammock?  Give your full attention to your child all day long?  Sit in the hot tub as the sun goes down?  Take a walk on the beach holding someone’s hand?  Eat one very rich desert?

Describe your most memorable day.  (No help here…Let your imagination do the work!)

Describe your most memorable night.  (Same as above)

What photo do you want to come home and show to everyone else?  The giant marlin you caught?  The attractive playmate who romanced you?  You at the peak of Mt. Everest?  The wonderful village family that charmed your heart?  Holding a koala bear with your kids?  Walking arm in arm in Waikiki with your mate?  The fabulous lion that crossed your path, strolling as if you weren’t there?  You and your friends waving from the castle-top?  You kissing the hand of the Pope?

Now make sure to write this down!  And have fun on your imaginary vacation.  May it manifest for you now or in the future!

Happy travels!

Are You Surfing the Love Vibration?

Surf The Love Vibration: 10 Tips for Using Love to Make Your Life Happier and Easier

Do you want a happier, easier life?  Surf the Love Vibration!

Is life a bit of a struggle?  Do you find yourself thwarted at work, unhappy at home, yearning for romance, feeling unappreciated?  Then love is your answer.  Not romantic love, but Universal love — the kind that opens the doors of infinite possibilities.

We live in a world where fear, anger, disappointment, jealousy, hopelessness and self-hate are the primary currency.  These are just some of the underlying negative emotions and thoughts that are most people’s default response to their experiences.  Such thoughts are limiting and destructive perceptions that simply permeate one’s world, and perpetuate misery and unhappiness.

The reason is that our thoughts and emotions are energy.  Quantum physics is proving that they have the power to influence and change our future.  What we think, we manifest.  We are Conscious Creators.  If we put out negative energy, we will attract more in return.  Negative energy throws up roadblocks in our life; it makes everything more difficult.

Consider for example the last time you had a disagreement with a co-worker.  Did you show your anger or disappointment?  What happened?  Did you create tension?  Did you get your way?  What was the cost?  What about the last fight you had with your lover or spouse?  Could your negative approach have made things worse?  If you do see yourself in these descriptions, then maybe you are ready to try Surfing the Love Vibration.

Love is the highest frequency energy in the Universe.  It is the positive energy that drives and powers the Universe.  When you raise your own personal frequency—the frequency of your thoughts and emotions—to match the Universe, you will be floating along in concert with the Universe instead of going against it.  In other words, you have the opportunity to grab your board and go Surfing the Love Vibration.

So how does one grab the wave?

  • Whenever you are confronted with an unpleasant situation or conflict, send love as your advance guard.  Stop before you speak.  Instead imagine sending out pink light from your heart or throwing a net of love over the participants.
  • Before you enter a situation you think might be confrontational, shower yourself in pink light.  Feel yourself being loved and embraced by the people you are soon to encounter.
  • When you feel down, depressed, unworthy, unloved or unattractive — give yourself a love bath!  You are a fabulous human being, a part of the Universe’s essence.  Remember that you are loved and that you must love yourself.  By doing so, you will attract more love.
  • Love those who you often forget to love.  This includes people such as mailmen, auto mechanics or store clerks who make your life easier and provide a service to you.
  • Forgive and love difficult relatives, ornery neighbors, demanding bosses, forgetful boyfriends, nagging wives, bad waiters, clueless salesclerks, crabby seniors and anyone else that has been an annoyance in your life previously.  Love them ‘til they begin picking up your “vibe” and begin behaving differently!
  • Choose love first when you must have a heart-to-heart talk with your loved ones—no matter what the topic.  Start from that framework — not anger, disappointment or need.  State what you are feeling and perceiving, and then ask what he/she feels about the matter and what is that person’s perception.  Don’t accuse or demand.  Seek compromise.
  • Practice random acts of kindness.  Whether it’s for someone you know or someone you don’t, such acts of grace are a powerful message of love in the Universe.
  • When you feel fear, seek its opposite.  Are you afraid of success or failure?  Are you afraid of trying something new?  Are you afraid to voice your feelings?  Whatever you fear can be transformed with love.  Give yourself love and permission.  Trust the Universe to help you, once you’ve administered that love.
  • When in doubt, spout love!  Not sure what to do or how to handle something?  Just send out waves of love.  Direct them toward anyone that impacts you and your decision.  Direct them toward the desired outcome.  Direct them toward yourself.  Direct them toward the Universe.
  • Love the World!  Love the Earth and its inhabitants—all living things.  Love the people who are courageous and conscious leaders.  Love the people that put their lives on the line to protect us (police, firefighters, servicemen and women, search & rescue).  Love the people who live a conscious life—and love those who don’t so that they may become conscious and caring.  Love the animals, sea creatures and insects that share our Earth.  Love the food and water that sustains us.  Love truth and integrity; and respect everyone so that they may become the social engine that drives the world forward.

“Why Don’t I Ever Get a Break?”

Most everyone at one time or another has thought, “I never get a break!,”  “Nothing ever goes right for me” or asked “Why doesn’t my life work?”

It is simple to think that uncontrollable forces are conspiring against us. But who is really at fault here and what can you do about becoming one of those people where nearly everything falls perfectly into place?

Quantum physics, is proving that we create our own reality and that the life we currently have is one we’ve manifested for ourselves. We are Conscious Creators, or UnConscious Creators, whose thoughts and emotions attract the outcomes we experience. Our thoughts are packets of energy that go out into the world and bring back similar energy.

Do you hate your job?  If so, that energy is likely to foster more dissatisfaction and sorrow, and should you seek a new job, you’ll find one that is equally unsatisfying. If you choose instead to picture yourself in a better working environment with happy relationships and supportive co-workers — and emit that type of thought energy — you’ll realize an improvement. If you’re having fiscal issues and focus only on your lack of money, the Universe will match your negative energy with its own and further the lack. However, think of yourself as a happy, wealthy person with an abundance, then money will begin to flow your way. If you’re unsatisfied with your body, that thought’s energy will keep you stuck in a downward spiral. Begin to love yourself and accept who you are, then you’ll draw joy to yourself and love from others.

What’s likely happened in your life is that you’ve become an UnConscious Creator. You are manifesting your future through default. Negative emotions and thoughts guide your existence. Want to stop asking “What is wrong with my life?”  Then start asking “What is right with my life?”

• Strive to become a Conscious Creator. Form your new life by envisioning it with love! Create an image in your mind of the life you’d like to experience, and include all the outstanding aspects that bring you joy. See your new life in detail … and actually feel it!

• Start to consciously change negative thoughts and feelings. Ask what is the opposite thought you might conjure in your mind? What emotion or thought will produce positive energy that will draw from the Universe your desired results?  Think from the perspective of what it would be like to be in the space where your desire is already present.

• Look at your assets and take stock in those things for which you should be grateful. Gratitude is a great location to start the process of transformation. The Universe responds to gratitude by bringing more things for which to be grateful.

• Begin to monitor your thoughts. Are you self-sabotaging your life with negative thoughts and emotions? It helps to keep a list of negative thoughts that emerge in your consciousness. Carry a notepad with you to catch yourself in the act of creating negative energy, and note those thoughts.

• When in doubt, spread love! Compassion, kindness and love are the most powerful thoughts and emotions that resonate with the Universe. These will not only come back to you, but they will help pave the way to your new existence.

Focus regularly on the positives and you’re on your way to transforming your life! Plus, you’ll be helping the world as a whole because happy people add positive energy to the planet’s consciousness and assist in transforming the Earth into a happier, more loving and compassionate place. So do yourself and the Universe a favor — start Consciously Creating your own joy.

How to Stay Positive…With a Negative Vibration Spouse or Partner

This is a topic that has come up several times in interviews over the past few months.  People who are making the change to a conscious and spiritually-driven life often discover that they are yoked to someone who is not prepared to come along on that journey.  The partner is mired in his or her own negative thoughts and emotions, and meets any topic of spiritual enlightenment, positive vibration and conscious creation with a wall of resistance.  Don’t despair…lots of others have gone through this phase too, and come out on the other side with a happier life.  Let’s look at what you can do in this situation:

• Stay in your positive vibration state.  Don’t allow your spouse or mate to pull you out of alignment with the Universe.  When you feel yourself drawn into it, take a walk, go play with the kids, read a book, or go have lunch with your best friend … and continue to think and feel positive about yourself, your life and the good qualities in your partner.

• Create a sacred place in your home where you can go to meditate, clear your chakras, express gratitude, Consciously Create, connect with the Universe, —activities that keep your frequency high.  Ask your partner to respect this private time, so that you can “recharge.”  This recharging should continue to buttress you against his or her negativity.

• Demonstrate how your life has changed by just being happier, more upbeat, and less stressed.  Soon your partner may want to know what it is that has changed you and how he/she can get some of it!

• By changing how you respond to things, your spouse is bound to have to adjust.  If you are doing something different, that will change the dynamic between you and within the family.  Your partner will have to adjust in some ways to meet or stay up with the new you.

• Visualize a harmonious relationship. See your relationship changing and your partner opening up to greater dialogue, a more open-minded attitude and a willingness to explore new avenues—new ways of thinking.  Take your focus off of what is WRONG, and put it on what is right and what you desire.

• Throw your “love net” around him or her.  We’ve previously written a bit about the “love net,” but I really believe this is an empowering tool to create waves of love that generate vibrational change.  See yourself throwing the net of positive loving energy over your mate and yourself, so that it will allow him/her to release the negativity in a net of safety and acceptance.  This raises the vibration between the two of you, and floods him or her with your loving, positive energy.

• Each day of the week, spend five minutes telling your partner one or more of the things you love about him or her.  Your partner will be delighted to hear praise instead of complaints!  It may well begin to shift his/her expectations, mood and outlook.

• Focus on making the present moment the very best and most enjoyable you can and vision for the future.  Release the past.  Don’t reintroduce old patterns, or hold him or her to past behavior by bringing up how it’s been previously, and make sure that you don’t fall back into old negative repetitive interactions yourself.  Let go of the anticipation that your partner will respond in “the same old way.”  Leave the door open for change and possibility.  Create a new pattern of interaction through your change of emotions, thoughts and energy habits.

• Present your partner with positive alternatives.  When he or she focuses on the negative, gently demonstrate what alternative thought, emotion or perception may further his or her desire.  Be a teacher, but do it gently.  Don’t force-feed these concepts.

• Become a Master Manifestor.  As you raise your frequency, good things will increasingly come to you at your beckoning.  If your spouse or partner gets jealous, point out that he/she can do this too if he/she follows your path.  Then hand your partner a copy of The Art of Conscious Creation!

• Accept that the Universe is creating an opportunity to test how effectively you can maintain your own positive energy in the face of a challenge!

• Lastly, and this is the most extreme outcome, if you have tried all of these over time and you find yourself in a situation that is not emotionally healthy for you, you may have to leave the relationship.  It is when the negatives outweigh the positives, with little prospects for change, that you have a responsibility to your ebullient and joyful soul to find an alternative lifestyle either alone or with a more positively-disposed and spiritually aware partner.  Remember, even when there are children involved, they fare better with at least one happy parent, rather than two miserable ones.

For many relationships, the awakening of one partner is often the key to evolution and positive growth for both.  May yours be one of those!
