Year: 2005

2005 was the year that I became clear on the importance of self-expression. Expressing yourself is associated with the energy center around your throat. Being in touch with who you are and what you love is only the beginning.

Once we know ourselves, it is time to take the risk of expressing this inner knowledge to the world. I believe that as each of us opens up, we become like portals, pouring light and pure spiritual energy into the world, healing it and ourselves simultaneously.

Another twist to self-expression is that it is tied to self-discipline. If healing the world isn’t incentive enough, know that the more you put yourself out there, so to speak, the less cravings you will have for excessive eating, drinking, and shopping.

Over consumption is a symptom of starvation – cravings for pure life energy that can only be absorbed by the body when it is expressed from your core, through your entire being and out into the world.

There you go! No need for dieting to be one of your New Year’s resolutions, simply express yourself.

Happy New Year,
Kimberly

As I just said in a note to my best friends, “May you be present enough to enjoy your presents.” Have an inspired holiday.

Merry Christmas!

This time of year our hearts are more open than ever – I’ve even noticed people being ultra polite at packed malls!

Sunday morning my daughter lovingly sacraficed watching Arthur and allowed me to watch my favorite Unity of Phoenix church service. Reverened Rogers was talking about unconditional love and acceptance of others – even difficult people.

The last couple years I have given this topic a lot of thought. I do think it is possible to love unconditionally when we do the same for ourselves. Enter boundaries. It is only possible to completely accept others when we honor ourselves 100%.

This may mean not spending time with a loved one who drinks him or herself under the table at every gathering, or quiting a job where you feel harrassed by a boss. What if we only hold on to emotional judgement of others when we don’t take care of ourselves?

The word unconditional implies that we deal with everything gracefully. Perhaps, if we dealt with less, we could love more.

Please say a prayer for a man named Donnie. He is a beautiful man with a huge heart who is in Iraq right now. He is struggling. What he is experiencing is more than his innocence is able to digest.

Donnie is the son of one of my students. He came to speak to my communication class about what it’s like to be in the military. At that time, he still had his spunk, hope and passion for life.

Yesterday his mom shared that he is having a very difficult time even remembering the value of his life. I know our love and prayers will lift him up and buffer him through this.

God Bless,
Kimberly

You know when you contain a lot of energy because your presence sharpens with intensity and you develop a palpable edge or border. Each time you honor your unique personality you infuse your being with energy. Each decision you make that reflects your true feelings rushes energy from your core into each of your cells and into the energy field that surrounds your body.

The upside of claiming and honoring your authentic self is empowerment and brightness. The downside is that sometimes being true to your core conflicts with other people’s agendas. That is when you feel your edge. And they feel your edge. You bump up against somebody else’s edge and chose not to cave in on yourself.

It takes time to get used to this feeling – you may already be proficient, or you may continue to feel the tension of another wanting to shape and define you, but yet, do not cave in to the expectation. Or, you may be empowered as long as it doesn’t offend, but when it does, you give your power away in order to “keep peace.”

Wherever you are in this process of becoming edgy – know that being edgy is a good thing – powerful and transformative.

– Passage from my upcoming book on personal energy management

Classes are coming to an end this semester. It is always bittersweet for me. It is such an honor to teach the principles of communication and energy management. I develop a genuine fondness for each and every student and feel sadness as the classes come to a close.

Each of us has a unique archetypal blueprint awaiting our acceptance. Before wondering if you are in the right career or living your purpose, identify your archetypal blueprint. You can do this by identifying the major aspects of your personality since birth.

You are like a diamond. Each facet is one aspect of your archetype. Each facet has sub-facets. For example, the four major facets of my archetypal blueprint are healer, teacher, performer and lover. Each of these has a more specific list below it like writer, mother, etc.

Once you identify your archetypal blueprint, you can align with it and further integrate the various facets. As we identify, claim and integrate each facet, we become shiny and radiant like a diamond.

I’ve noticed that the people I am most taken with are those who embody their unique archetype. They are powerful from the inside out and affect us all with their brilliance. No two of us are alike – the world needs each of us to be bold, sparkly and powerful in our own way.

Babyface was amazing.

One of my classes just ended at Scottsdale Community College. Two students wrote some wise and profound messages that I would like to share. The first passage is from the student’s own experience. The second is a letter written to the class.

“A real failure in life is when someone has fallen and they don’t get up, because they fail to realize that every passing second was another chance to turn it all around.” -Z.

“There is a reason for each of you… There will be times of utter solitude and complete devastation. This I promise. But I also promise you that you will experience the greatest heights that life has to offer. You will experience love. You will experience joy and happiness. You will watch your dreams come true right before your eyes. You will change this world in some way.” -L.

Having a blog is an odd experience. I envy the youngin’s who have had years of practice on “My Space.” For the writing to flow, I’m finding that, like in a relationship, I have to tell the truth or I get blocked. I can tell when I have something to say, but am not saying it because all of a sudden I can’t come up with anything to say. Confused yet?

So here’s what I have to say. I feel like I’m putting my words into a big black hole. It feels as if I’m yelling in the forest, somewhat useless to be perfectly honest. However, my ex-husband, still handy in a blogging sort of way, assures me that I NEED a blog so I will continue to babble on.
