Powerful and Rich

#blessed, #faithoverfear, #influence, #rich, #terihunter #gifts, freedom, power

Hi Everyone,

Its been quite some time since I’ve written a blog. I was inspired by a conversation I overheard at lunch the other day between a mom and her teenage daughter. They were talking about college prep courses. Mom asked what classes she was interested in taking and she said “I don’t care as long as I become powerful and rich when I grow up.” Her mother, without skipping a beat replied “do you want to split the grilled chicken sandwich?” and that was the end of that. I was a little taken aback.

On the walk home I wondered how that girl defined powerful and rich. When I was a teenager it meant having a lot of influence over people so they thought I was important and, of course money, sitting on bags and bags of money. When I had the money, everyone would do what I wanted. I chuckled at the naivete of my youth.

I found myself conversing with the younger me. Inspiration welled up as I started telling her what I have learned about real power and being rich. “It’s an inside job,” I would tell her, “it comes from trusting the creator inside.” NO I’m not talking about God. I’m talking about me, my gifts, my talents. I told her that as I/we focus on how we feel when we express those talents and gifts, the sense of freedom that it elicits, that’s when we become most powerful and infinitly rich. The joyful expression of self sends a ripple into the Universe that gives others permission to express themselves. That ripple has unmeasurable influence and power in ways that supersede, and at the same time, are inclusive of material wealth and power.

Walking along the ocean’s cliff, the springtime breeze blowing my big old mane of hair around, me and my mini-me feel free. I have been blessed with the courage to walk toward myself regardless of outside input. I have been rewarded for being vulnerable to my dreams and in my belief that I have what it take to make them a reality.

As I faithfully and purposefully choose me, keep pointing my ship toward what feels good, I live an amazing life that gets better every day!

In light and with love,

I don’t know if I can put it into words what I’m feeling but I’m going to try to share what I’ve taken away from this historic week, for me, Teri Hunter, a Soul having a human experience.

I love this country. I love being an American. I love the idea that, we as an American people, are encouraged to voice and express ourselves as a God given right. To be able to pick and choose, who and what we want to be, is the ultimate freedom. This freedom is the vision of our founding fathers, a vision countless souls laid down their lives for.

On Wednesday morning the shedding of our country’s old skin made me anxious all day, worse than the days leading up to the election. I wanted to hide. The collective energy outside felt contemptious. Everyone who was looking forward to the anger, the hatred, and the name calling to be over was in for a rude awakening. We all know, it has only gotten worse.

This upheavel brings resolve to my heart. It’s not about winning or losing. It’s about how I show up in the game. I took a good hard look at myself this week. Am I being the change I wish to see in this world?

I pledge to see the best in others when they are not at, what I think should be, their best.

I pledge to see the person, the human, the soul rather than a Party, a Vote or a Color or any other label …. You fill in the Box. And it is a Box.

I pledge to remember that everyone has a story that wants to be heard. I will try to listen more. And in doing so, I can choose my actions versus reacting.

I pledge to remember love when others have forgotten what it feels like.

This turbulent time in our country has reminded me of how much I love The United States. How much I want to nurture her and how invested I am in her founding principles.

Thank you to all of you who took the time to read my thoughts. May blessings fill your days and nights.

In light and with love,

Teri Hunter

Thoughts

#itswaitingforyou, #iwantitnow, #lovemyselfsomuch, #manifest, #stayingpositive, #thoughtsaretwothings, #two, Thoughts

A lot of people are telling me how frustrated they are in their attempts to manifest their desires. They have tried everything they can think of. The list of “doing” is long; vision boards, saying affirmations, getting energy work and, the most common, staying positive. Yet, there are no results.

What I’ve learned in the years I’ve been doing my work is that every thought is really two thoughts. The first is the initial desire, thought #1. Then there is the “road to get there” thought #2.

It is thought #2 that usually gets the most attention. People ruminate and chew on all the challenges, the potential pitfalls and the hurdles. In doing so, the “excited, joyful” energy it takes to manifest is eclipsed by the struggle to get there thoughts.

I’d bet if you stop right now and think of something you want… the instant you do, the thought of “how will it happen” will follow in a flash. Now I ask you to observe how much time you spend on the “how.” The how usually instills a fearful energy and that fear dominates the energetic vibration being sent out into the Universe.

I propose a little experiment. This week when a desire comes to mind, watch yourself in the moments that follow. What is your predominate thought? Is that thought based in fear or faith? What percentage of time are you feeling excited about your desire and what percentage of time are you worrying about it? This can be the measure of how close you are to manifestation.

When you allow your imagination to flow to the obtainment of that desire, what will it be like, what will it feel like? When you muster the excitement regardless of the physical evidence, you are in the zone. Once in the zone, your desires are on their way.

I’d love to hear how your experiments go, what you notice about your thoughts and what they are drawing toward you.

Have a great week everyone. Sending love and light to your days and nights.

Blessings to you,

Teri Hunter

Kindness

#kindness, #magic, #payitforward, #peoplearekind, #theworldiskind

I woke up this morning with the sense that good things are popping up all over the place. I have been making a point of thinking the universe is actually magical and its got surprises lined up for me. There are no outward signs of magic, nothing has overtly changed to bring on this feeling. I’ve just been making a concentrated effort when I open my eyes to think what a great day it’s going to be.

The glint in Morgan Freeman’s eye perfectly captures how I have been feeling.

So today I go to the local healthbar, Jan’s Healthbar @janshealthbar, as I do every day since they opened to get my juice. Well, I dropped $40 bucks on the counter without realizing it and you know what happened… KINDNESS

I was waiting outside with Lucky completely clueless when one of the girls comes out to ask me if I paid with cash. The KIND woman in line saw the money, told the girls, they know I pay with cash most of the time and they gave me my $40 bucks back.

That collective act of kindness inspired me beyond true expression. Today, $40 bucks reminded me that the world is a kind place, people are kind, good things are happening.

In light and with love (and $40 bucks in her pocket)

Staying Positive – The Undercurrent

Tags

#havingitall, #positivethinking, #stayingpositive, #whynotme, evolve, Love

Lately I’ve been hearing a lot of people talk about staying positive and thinking positive. Whether they are experiencing challenges, looking for their dream job or finding their soulmate, whatever it is…. Everybody is going to be “positive!!!”

I may sound like a nutjob right now but I think staying positive is what is holding them back from getting what they want. Staying positive feels like I’m resisting the negative and in doing so… ‘what you resist persists’ Right!!!!

The undercurrent of staying positive really focuses on the absence of what we desire. We think “Oh I want – you fill in the blank” and in the same instance we think of the struggle to obtain it.

If you are like most people, which I am, you will spend way more time thinking about the absence of what you want, which will turn into the feeling of that absence, much more than you will focus on the fulfillment of your desire. Which will, in turn, push that desire further away from you rather than closer.

And then you declare “I’m going to stay positive.” More resistance. When we say “I am going to be positive” we put that positive feeling out in the future somewhere. We’ve now doubled our resistance. We are resisting giving into the negative thought (1) by staying positive sometime in the future (2).

A vicious circle you say! It doesn’t have to be. Yet getting out isn’t for the faint of heart. It takes determination. It takes a willingness to hold onto to that desire regardless of what the real world is showing you right now. You’ve built a certain momentum. To shift that momentum you get to shift what you focus on and build a new momentum. It takes faith that what is already inside of you is waiting to show you what you can do.

On the days all you have to hang your hat on is “staying positive” what if you surrendered lack and sarcity rather than resisting it. Be willing to stand in the uncomfortable energy of what is deemed “negative.” What if you asked Spirit to show you something you have forgotten about yourself. What if that “negative” is really a “positive” you’ve been resisting.

Something to think about.

In light and with love

Conviction of the Heart

Tags

#convictionoftheheart, #courage, #ichoose, #igotthis, #loveyourself, #whatsatstake, Love

I’ve been thinking a lot about happiness, love and prosperity and what it means to say “I am fully living my life.”

The first thing I noticed was that I was trying to define what it “means to say I am living my life fully.” Sounds like I care more about what other people think about “my full life” than I care about how I feel living it.

Conviction and commitment are unwavering by nature. Happiness, love, and abundance are the product of a person’s willingness to have commitment and conviction to their own heart’s urgings. Our souls yearn for this vibration so that we can allow these experiences into our physical space.

Every single one of us walking planet Earth has had our heart broken by someone or something. We hope that things will fall into place or that they will change. This is where most of us sell ourselves short. We give up and settle for what is being offered rather than what we truly need. If you think about it… really get deep and ask yourself “Do I walk a path with Conviction of my Heart leading the way?”

Conviction of the Heart takes courage. Conviction of the Heart says “I will protect and serve your highest and greatest good. My commitment is to your infinite happiness and joy. Rely on your conviction as you transition out of any ‘virtual’ experience that asks you to dim your light or dull your desires.”

Trust the Conviction of your Heart. Listen to its wisdom as it steers you away from what you ‘thought’ you wanted into what you have only dreamt of.

In light and with love,

Word Vibration of the Week #103 – LOVE

Tags

Happy Sunday Everyone,

It’s Week #103 of 103 – LOVE

Thank you for joining me and welcome back to my blog. The official site of Word Vibration of the Week (WVOW). My intention for this blog is to create a community where we can share our thoughts and ideas about how words resonant with our energy. I look forward to your comments and our discussions. For those of you familiar with these posts, please feel free to jump to the next paragraph. For those of you new to my posts here is a brief description of Word Vibration of the Week.

I have always been fascinated with the idea that words carry a certain vibration, an energy of their own. My fascination is fueled by the idea that two words having similar meanings can feel vastly different energetically. I wanted to know how particular words landed on other people. Do they feel a word’s individual character like I do? Do other people notice how the words we use, in large part, create the experience we are having? I decided to write random words, 103 to be exact, on pieces of paper. I folded them into little squares and tossed them into a bowl. Each week I will draw a new word and post how this word feels to me, energetically. These words are the basis for my interactive post(s), “Word Vibration of the Week.” I invite you to join me each week and share how each WVOW lands on you.

Two years and 103 Words later we reach the final word for this chapter of WVOW – And that word is LOVE…

The Universe is awesome! And how divine is it that our last word is LOVE.

LOVE’s vibration  is the frequency every human strives to experience.

LOVE defies definition. It is boundless and the foundation that links us to the best part of ourselves and enables us to see the best in others.

LOVE is the ultimate vibration. The Holy Grail. It makes all the other vibrations worth traversing. I’m pretty sure it’s why our soul longs for a physical journey.

Thank you all for allowing me to share my thoughts. I have LOVED each and every week.

And just as LOVE is ever expanding so is the life of this blog. I will keep you posted…

Until next time, keep your heart open… LOVE is everywhere!!!

In light and with love,

Word Vibration of the Week #102 – POWER

Happy Monday Everyone,

It’s Week #102 of 103 – POWER

Week #102 – POWER

It’s Monday and I apologize for the being late on the 2nd to the last post (as it is now) of WVOW.

This week’s word, POWER, had me going in a bunch of different directions. I will admit I thought about Hillary and The Don and the power struggle of an election year.  I thought about POWER TO THE PEOPLE and then I saw the phrase above and I thought this is the perfect way for me to depict how I feel the frequency of POWER.

It’s not always easy to take our POWER back when our mind has run amok with “what ifs” or “how will that happen” yet, when I focus my mind on what it is I want to experience I feel empowered and strong.

POWER’s vibration can easily be misused by the Ego, but when I stand in my truth, POWER is God’s loving light leading the way.

Have a great week everyone.

In light and with love,

Word Vibration of the Week #101 – DEPENDENT

Happy Valentine Sunday Everyone,

It’s Week #101 of 103 – DEPENDENT

Thank you for joining me and welcome back to my blog. The official site of Word Vibration of the Week (WVOW). My intention for this blog is to create a community where we can share our thoughts and ideas about how words resonant with our energy. I look forward to your comments and our discussions.

Week #101 – DEPENDENT

Ok, I’ll admit it, this word’s vibration straight up scared me. I immediately felt powerless, weak, and less than…. everything!!!!

This word’s frequency got me thinking about relationships and if I were in a situation where I was DEPENDENT on another. You know the big DEPENDENT where I have little to no say in my life, how would that look?  Whoaaaaaa…. Can you say trust issues? To be DEPENDENT is to display the highest vibration of trust.

While I know we come into his world DEPENDENT on others, I just don’t particularly like the idea of going back there in my old age. And that leads to the greatest reason to get my b*tt off the couch and get that blood pumping.

Happy Valentine’s Day to you all, only two weeks left to this version of my blog…. Let me know if you want the Vibes to continue.

In light and with love,

Week #100 – EXPRESSION

This week’s word, EXPRESSION, marks a milestone… It is the 100th word post from WVOW and it is the vibration that this blog was born of.

EXPRESSION is the benchmark of freedom and it is imperative for me to experience life in its sweetest, richest hues.

EXPRESSION is the foundation of creativity. It has a youthful frequency that demands attention. From my perspective it is the driving force behind all human endeavors from the building of Mount Rushmore to putting a man on the Moon, to countless others.

I have enjoyed EXPRESSing myself these last two years and find myself contemplating the final weeks of this blog. I’m not sure I am ready to let go of this forum for my EXPRESSION…. we’ll have to see???

Have a great week everyone and I hope you are enjoying being an exquisite EXPRESSION of love (whether you know it or not!).

In light and with love,
