Gulf of Mexico Oil Spill: A Message from the Dolphins and Whales
For weeks now, I have watched the disaster in the Gulf of Mexico get worse and worse. I kept trying to stay in joy, in my “all is well” belief, seeing things through the eyes of Source. But as I saw my beloved ocean, dolphins, whales, sea turtles, the coast get covered in an ever increasing oil slick, I felt my thoughts turn into a black, oily, suffocating mess. Finally, yesterday, I let it all out. I allowed myself to get REALLY angry. I cried on and off all morning. I felt powerless, I felt the pain and anguish and frustration. I let it flow. I posted to a few friends of mine on Facebook, and through them and a few of my sistas, I began to find better feeling thoughts.
Even through my darkest anger, I was able to see and feel the higher part of me, the part that knows all is well, but I couldn’t quite close the gap between us. By the end of the day, I felt much better and was quickly closing the gap.
This morning I felt a message coming through from the dolphins and whales, so I sat down to listen. I started off by asking them: “I believe I am the creator of my reality… so tell me, how did I create this?”
Sierra, you asked for this when you asked for alternative energy and to clean up the political arena. Did you think that would happen without an event like this? The asking was so big, so strong, from so many, that only a big event like this could answer the asking.
We love you so much, and we will be fine, our species will continue. You cry for our bodies, but you know you can connect with us telepathically anytime. They are just that, bodies, our vessels in the physical. And while we know you and others like to see us in the physical, our non physical connection is even stronger. And our species will survive. We will come back in even greater numbers in the new world.
It will come back, new and better than before, like a forest after a forest fire. When the smoke clears, new life will appear. Yes, things will never be the same. They will be different. It will be a constant reminder of what you never want to go back to.
The power for change lies with the American consumer, the buyers…. Do not forget that the powers that be are dependent on YOU and your buying dollar. You, and your friends, really are the ones with the power. It is an illusion that it is any other way. They just want you to believe that. You must demand alternatives and you can do that with the power and energy of money. This is really a case of putting your money where your mouth is. The people will come together like never before.
Yes, many of us will die, there will be much more than now, this IS going to get worse, but you know that there is no death. We are eternal. We know this is for a higher good. We understand. And many of us are already on the move to other places; the word is out through the Cetacean Communication Network (CCN) our very own CNN. (I hear laughter). We lived here long before the humans and they cannot destroy us. We have safe havens to go to where you will never find us.
We applaud you, Sierra for allowing yourself to get angry. As our friend Joe Noonan said, anger is good to clean out the pipes. Do you see what a clear channel you are now that you have acknowledged your feelings of anger, let them run through, and move past them? This event will cause a lot of anger. And it is very good as it is through the anger that change will come. It is through the anger that new desires are born.
Do not doubt the power of creation. Do not doubt the power of many focusing together for a common goal. Do you see how through your tears and getting really mad you sent out all those rockets of desires for something new? Do you see how through the passion of so many; the anger, the frustration, that a powerful desire for a new world is being asked for in a very powerful way? This is the power of creation at work. Through the catastrophe comes the powerful new desires; the creation of something new. It was time, it is time. This is what you have been waiting for. A new world. The time is now.
You must not focus on dead and dying bodies. This is focusing on the problem and focusing on that will bring more of it. We know this is very hard for we know that you and your friends love us. And we love you. But you MUST focus on what this catastrophe caused you all to desire. You MUST focus on the solutions. You must focus on alternative energy, on transparent politics, a new world order of the best kind. You all have been asking for this for so long, can’t you see? This is what you have been waiting for!
A new world awaits. What do you want to see in your new world? Therein lies the focus.
We love you, we love you all. All is well.

Be Unlimited... Notes from my Higher Self
I wrote this a couple of years ago, but I just came across it again and felt inspired to share it now:
I have shared with some of you how I have been feeling since 08-08-08. I knew it was a day of openings, of activations, of higher connectedness, a shift in consciousness. But I really had no idea how it would affect me so much. On that day and since then, I have been feeling incredibly high, incredibly connected to ALL THAT IS, a whole new level of BEing. I am loving it. On that day I wrote a rampage about how I was feeling. The next day I began to have some incredible experiences and synchronicities that are beyond what has happened before. Things are flowing. Things are different. I can really feel the shift in energy. I feel so connected! It is amazing.
So, I was excited to get out on the water today. I have some of my best conversations with my Higher Self while on the water. No computers, no animals wanting my attention, just me, the water and my inner being. The conversation beginsL
"I'm heeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrre!" I tell them.
We feel you, Sierra, we feel your high vibe, your new stronger connection. And we want to help you take it further.
"Oh Goody, BRING IT ON!!", I say.
With this shift in energies and consciousness that has now happened, everything is moving even faster than before. The synchronicities, psychic experiences, the connections with others will become, and are becoming, a part of every day life. Just HOW IT IS NOW. There are opportunities for growth and expansion like never before. It is now more important than ever to control your thoughts, to only think about what you want. The gates are wide open (they literally show me gates with doors wide open, big crystal gates with black iron doors). It is easier than ever to manifest what you want, to connect to Source, to become WHO YOU REALLY ARE. Without Limitations. You just have to walk through the gates. But in order to do that, you have to leave behind the remaining doubts, fears, self sabatoge, and judgments of others. Now more than ever, it is the time to See Through the Eyes of Source.
Okay, I want to do that. I am already doing that more and more. Especially now, these last few days. How do I go further now?
Each and every day, do something that you wouldn't have done before. IT'S TIME TO STEP COMPLETELY OUT OF THE BOX. UNLIMITED THINKING. We know you are a quantum leaper, but you will not be able to do that with all issues that you have built up lots of limiting beliefs around and most people can't do that at all. With some remaining limits you have placed upon your self, you will have to take step by step, a little bit each day to rewire and reprogram your thinking and beliefs on these subjects.
For instance?
Look in the areas of your life where you have limited yourself. Things that you fear, areas that you hold yourself back. Relationships, finances, you know this, Sierra. Each day, take a step towards unlimited thinking in these areas. Start talking to yourself in a new way on these things. There are NO limits on what you can be, do have. Only you limit you. Start taking things to a new level, you are going to be amazed where you are going. You are already there, you just have to let it in. It's like this: your connection to Source is like tuning in a radio dial to a certain station. When you get too far away, the signal is weaker, but as you move closer to the Source, the signal is strong. (I get an image of being in a car and trying to tune in a certain station, and there is lots of static, but I turn the car around and go towards the Source, and it is strong) Always keep focused on the Source, on what you want. Each day take a step towards the Source. Again, step out of the box. Do things that you once feared, even if it's little by little. Only you are holding yourself back and there's no reason for it anymore. There is no reason to fear, Sierra, we are with you. Talk to someone you might not have talked to, go somewhere, do something you might not have done before from fear or doubt. Do SOMETHING every single day to move towards the Source, to bring the signal in stronger. There is nothing to be afraid of. You can handle all that is coming to you and more. YOU CAN HAVE IT ALL! BE UNLIMITED!
BE UNLIMITED, BE UNLIMITED, BE UNLIMITED! I shout to myself (I would have shouted it out loud, but I did have guests on the boat with me) The third time I say BE UNLIMITED with all the passion that I have, a dolphin jumps out of the water 2 feet from the boat, turns in mid air and looks right at me!!!! OMG, talk about confirmation! I am constantly amazed at the U and the way they send me signs and confirmations and evidence. Totally amazing. I am breathless at the Divine Orchestration of it all.

OMG, talk about confirmation! I am constantly amazed at the U and the way they send me signs and confirmations and evidence. Totally amazing. I am breathless at the Divine Orchestration of it all.
The guests on the boat are a family from Holland. Mom, dad and two kids, about 13 and 16 years old. The water was pretty wavy today, we had a big storm last night. The kids are starting to get sick. The son throws up. I ask the Mom if they want to turn back. "NO!" she says. I start to judge her. Her kids are sick, obviously miserable, but she doesn't want to go back. I start thinking about what kind of mom she is".. my thoughts are going that way and I hear:
Ah, perfect this is happening now, Sierra, this is the next thing we wanted to talk to you about. Judgment of others. You don't know the story behind this family. Now step back and look through The Eyes of Source.
I close my eyes. I see the mom planning their whole vacation to Costa Rica around this dolphin and whale tour. She LOVES them. She wants more than anything to be with dolphins and whales in the wild. She tells her kids the night before that she really wants to do this tour, and if they think they might get sick, better not to go because she doesn't want to have to come back. They insist on coming anyway. I open my eyes and I see her pure delight at seeing the dolphins. She is screeching with glee. She is glowing, she is so happy. And I had judged her for being happy when her kids were sick. Amazing what happens when we LOOK THROUGH THE EYES OF SOURCE. You should have seen her when we found the mom and baby humpbacks!! I put my attention on her, not the sick kids, and brought myself back to PURE JOY.
See, Sierra, by judging others, by not allowing others to be who they are, by putting your own opinions and beliefs upon others, you are only disconnecting yourself from WHO YOU REALLY ARE. You don't know their story, you don't know what has happened before, where they are coming from, and even if you do, IT DOESN'T MATTER!!!! Your job is to stay connected to WHO YOU REALLY ARE and allow allow allow others to find their own way, their own path. Judging others only takes you further from where you want to go.
They told me to pay attention to my posture, to stand up very straight, to improve the flow of energy going through my body. They told me to imagine that I am reaching for the sky with the top of my head and to keep my shoulders back, opening up my heart center more... it seems very important to allow that energy flow through my body and that keeping my body straight and aligned is essential for more energy flow and expansion. They also talked about how important deep breathing is, they said "deep, even, steady breathing." They told me to pay attention to these two things, and it will also help my body adjust to the new higher vibrations I am feeling
There was a lot more, and I know I am missing some things that we said to me, but I need to process it so that I can explain it how it was meant. It was much more a FEELING, a feeling of BEING UNLIMITED.
I do know that as we came back in from the tour, the amazing rainforest that comes all the way to the beach looked greener. The sky looked bluer. I was once again SEEING THROUGH THE EYES OF SOURCE. APPRECIATING the beauty of it all. The connectedness of it all. THE DIVINE PERFECTION OF IT ALL! WE ARE SO BLESSED TO BE HERE, RIGHT NOW, AT THIS VERY MOMENT, AT THIS TIME OF GREAT EXPANSION AND AWARENESS. IT'S A GREAT TIME TO BE ALIVE INDEED!
And my higher self, in order to finish the conversation with a song, talks to me once more. I come back from the tour, walk into my room, and the song that is on is I Hope You Dance by Lee Ann Womack. If you get the chance to sit it out or dance, I HOPE YOU DANCE!
And I add to that, not only dance, but DANCE LIKE NOBODY IS WATCHING!!!

Unlimited Possibilities...
What I've noticed this week is that I am down to my core beliefs and patterns. I've gotten through most all of the smaller ones, the limiting "lite" ones. Now it's down to the very foundation of where I stand, what I believe in and how I behave. All outer walls and excuses and upper limiting has been peeled away and now I am at the core. I am at the beliefs and patterns that have been so a part of who I am for so long that I couldn't even see them until now. It feels strange, to be looking at myself so naked and almost completely stripped away of fluff. And it feels really good too. It feels like you feel after a visit to the stationary store and you have all this new, neat, pretty paper to write on. A clean, flowery, perfumey slate.
Now is the time I can rewrite those core beliefs how I want them to be, written from knowing who I truly am, written from knowing that all is well. I shall acknowledge and appreciate the beliefs that kept me safe as a child, that have gotten me to here... and I shall release them into the river of consciousness past. I create new beliefs and run new patterns that allow me to operate from a space of unlimitedness and pure freedom.
I love the unlimited possibilities and the unlimited me that I see before me.

Sierra's Weight Loss Tips
If you are reading this, you are probably one of those people who are always struggling with their weight. Believe me, I understand. I have been yo-yoing with my weight my whole life. I understand what it is like to feel fat and unattractive, to not have any energy, and to feel helpless to do anything about it. I have been there. I have lost 170 pounds. Of course everyone wants to know what I did. It was a journey of mind, body and spirit. I believe addressing all aspects is the key to long term weight loss.
I have put together some tips that helped me achieve my long term weight loss. My wish is that you find something here that helps you along on your weight loss journey.
· Find your motivation to change your current eating habits and lifestyle. For each individual person, "the thing", the one thing that finally motivates you to go for it, is different. You have to find your thing; the person, or place, or photo, or health issue that motivates YOU. I recommend taking pictures of yourself so you can no longer avoid knowing what you look like to others. You have to be honest with yourself, even if you are not honest about your weight on your driver's license! Sometimes the photos alone are enough to motivate you. If that doesn't do it, maybe there is some hot guy you like (or some husband you want to keep!), or a trip you want to take, or a cute outfit that you want to look good in. Whatever your motivation is, post it on the fridge and all around your house and keep it in the forefront of your mind at all times. I kept several things in my mind during my weight loss. One was a photo of myself looking like the Goodyear Blimp's younger sister. The other was that my knees were starting to go and I thought about having to use a lift system to get up the stairs to my house. That one really motivated me. The idea is to find something that gets you motivated and gets you started.
· I am a big believer in the power of affirmations and visualization. It is a very powerful message to the universe and to your sub-conscious mind when you write down your hopes and dreams as if you already have them. I used a journal and wrote things like: "I am healthy and thin", "I weigh 130 pounds", "I am a size 5". You get the idea. The trick is to write the sentences AS IF YOU ALREADY ARE AND ALREADY HAVE THE THINGS YOU ARE WRITING ABOUT. Do not write "I will be", or "I wish I was", or "I want". Once you have your affirmation list, LOOK AT IT EVERY DAY, best is in the morning before you start your day (while you are drinking your green tea!) and even better, all throughout the day and before you go to bed. To go with your written affirmations, VISUALIZE AND FEEL YOURSELF as the thin person you are. Sit up!! Hold your body like a thin person, walk like a thin person, talk like a thin person. Visualize yourself in the clothes you want to wear, FEEL IT, BE IT! This is an important part of weight loss, do not skip this step, it really helps! One of the things I did is when I was huffing and puffing up the steps from the beach to my house was that I pictured myself bouncing and even running up those steps. Now it is true! Visualize yourself on vacation with lots of energy and cute clothes, visualize yourself buckling your seat belt without holding in your stomach, visualize yourself zipping up adorable Size 5 jeans with ease. The more you do this, the easier your weight loss will be. Trust me on this.
· It is so important to do things that make you feel good about yourself during this time. Please take off those ugly sweats, cut them up and use them for cleaning the house and buy yourself some new clothes that you feel good in, no matter what size they are. NO FRUMPS!!!! eBay, Torrid.com and Alight.com were a Godsend for me as I was able to buy really cute plus size clothing that made me feel great. Don't go crazy, because your new clothes wont fit you for long! Keep cleaning out your closet as clothes get too big on you. Donate them to your fat friends who will want to know what you are doing or even sell them on eBay. Don't keep around "fat clothes" just in case. You don't want to have that to fall back on. Don't create safety nets for yourself this time. Go for it or Go HOME! Get a manicure, get your hair done, treat yourself like the princess (or prince) that you are! The trick is to keep you feeling good about yourself and not fall back into self pity and overeating. If looking in a mirror frustrates you, don’t look in the mirror until it feels good!
· Raise your hand if you are a member of The Clean Plate Club. Yep, I thought so. I am the same way, there are starving children in Africa , you know. I have learned to ask for smaller portions because it is so hard for me to leave food on my plate. If you are still served too big portions, repeat after me, "It is okay to leave food on my plate. Worms and bugs need food too, it will get eaten by something eventually, it doesn't have to be me." Keep saying it. Stop eating when you are full. It is always good to drink green tea 10 minutes before you eat. You will feel fuller faster and will have that extra motivation and willpower that you need.
· It is very important to identify and release the belief systems that keep you eating food to self sabotage your dreams. If you are overweight, your beliefs are holding you there. It is very possible to change these beliefs with your persistent new thoughts and emotions. Read my ebook, Becoming Thin that teaches my I AM Diet Plan and use my Guided Visualization which helps to eliminate the limiting beliefs which keep you from your dreams.
· Don’t put off your life until you get thin. Start doing the things you have been putting off. Live NOW as you would if you were already thin. Be thin now!
· Find a long term eating plan that works for you and that you can stick to. What is important is that it is a program that you can stay on without feeling deprived and hungry (feeling deprived leads to overeating!) and that will support you after you have reached your goal.
· Sorry, but you cannot get out of the exercise thing. It is essential not only for weight loss, but for your overall health. Start out slow, don't push yourself. Take a walk with a friend or your poor dog who never gets out. Find fun things to do for exercise that you don’t dread. As you lose weight, you will find that your energy level is higher and you will WANT TO EXERCISE. Really! I never thought it could be true, but as I got thinner, I actually wanted to exercise because I had so much energy. It just feels so good for so many reasons. There are also lots of great online workout programs too.
· Stay conscious when you eat. If you are like me, you can go into a kind of food stupor and you don't even think or breath until everything on your plate is gone and then you wonder where it went! Put your fork down between every few bites, eat slowly, chew, chew, chew! I still have to remind myself to do this. It is a hard habit to break, but so important to do for your health and weight loss goals.\\
· Be kind to yourself. Don't beat yourself up if you really want to eat something. If you are going to feel guilty before and after eating, you are not going to enjoy it and it will be even worse, body, mind and soul. Enjoy your meal, enjoy every single bite, slowly. Then just get right back on and continue. You deserve it and you are worth it. Be like thin people and when you overeat, compensate. Get right back to listening to your body. And if you are going to eat something that you consider bad, like a hamburger, be sure to eat it with leafy greens like a salad to help your body digest it.
· Congratulate yourself on the big and small victories and successes. I threw a party when I was able to cross my legs again with ease (but of course I didn't tell anyone what the party really was celebrating!)
· Do not let yourself get to the starving point as that can lead to a major overeating binge. It is always better to eat 6 small meals during the day, or at least have a snack between meals to keep your metabolism up. I usually snack on nuts (don't go overboard, but they are a good source of protein and very filling) or fruits or both.
· One of the best things you can do for your overall health and weight loss is to stop eating processed foods. Fill your diet with whole foods like fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds and whole grains. Foods that are still in their original, natural form. Highly processed breads, pastas, meats, and other foods that no longer resemble what they once were will slow down your weight loss. Fried foods are out too, they are just horrible for your system. Become a lean, mean, greaseless machine!
· Drink lots of water. This helps with weight loss but will also help to keep your skin hydrated to avoid stretch marks and hanging skin. Use lots of lotion too. Coconut oil is one of the best products for your skin!
· Get yourself some support. Hang with people with like minded goals. Get a Life Coach, preferably ME, who will support you and keep you accountable. Join other groups that will support you in your dreams.
· Look in the mirror everyday and say "Love You" and mean it, no matter where you are with your weight loss goals!

Is the Law of Attraction Yesterday's News?
Lately I have been hearing a lot of people saying that they are giving up on the Law of Attraction (LOA). They are tired of hearing about it, tired of the thousands of websites, seminars and self improvement programs promising the moon and the stars with the LOA because it just does not seem to work for them.
The truth is, the Law of Attraction is ALWAYS working, it is Universal Law, but if you are not vibrating in the energetic vicinity of what you desire, you are not going to get it. When people are not getting what they want, they think the Law of Attraction does not work. But sorry, folks, there is no getting out of Universal Law. It is working; you are just not allowing it to work in your favor.
Another reason people don’t want to hear about the Law of Attraction is because they don’t want to be responsible for their own lives. They find it easier to blame others for everything that happens to them or blame some cruel God who punishes us for our sins.
I also think the recent turn from focus on the Law of Attraction by many whom have been teaching it for a long time now is that the LOA just IS. It’s like gravity, and we don’t talk about gravity all day long trying to figure out how to use it to our advantage in our lives. We don’t go around trying to “invoke” gravity. We just KNOW it IS and act accordingly. Why keep talking about it and trying to get it to work for us? It already is working for us. People don’t have to know anything about gravity to stay planted on the ground, nor do they need to know of or believe in the Law of Attraction to attract like energy. It’s a given.
Before the term “Law of Attraction” became so popular, I learned it as the “Law of Love” or the “Law of Divine Orchestration”. It is only in recent years that Law of Attraction has become the buzz phrase for this Universal Law.
There is no doubt that like energy and vibration attracts like energy and vibration; that is the proven scientific explanation. But spiritually, the explanation is that Divine Super Intelligence loves us unconditionally and wants to give us what we want. So to make it easy, and not overwhelming like Jim Carey in Bruce Almighty, Source let us be our own self sufficient creators, each of us holding the power that creates worlds within us. Why would we ever think/feel/vibrate anything that we don’t want knowing that we are powerful creators who create our reality with our thoughts/feelings/vibration? Like duh!!! But there is a reason why we hold ourselves back.
For me the focus has more shifted from concentrating on the Law of Attraction to focusing on the beliefs we have acquired during our lifetime, some of them outdated and limiting, and re-wiring those to match what we truly want. Our beliefs filter our perception of life, how we see ourselves and others. Our beliefs are there to protect us and keep us safe; we created them early on when we observed something and made a decision about it. Or maybe we heard someone say something like “You will never amount to anything”, or “Don’t eat that, you will get fat,” or “You have to work hard to make money,” and boom, a belief is born. Our forming brains soaked it up like a sponge and made it true for us. But what we thought we needed to keep us safe as children is no longer valid as adults, especially as we evolve and expand. We need to learn to adjust and amend and re-wire until our beliefs match our desires so that we get what we desire by Divine Universal Law.
It doesn't take rocket science to figure out where you are vibrating on any given subject. Just look at your bank account, your relationships, your career. What you are getting is what you are vibrating. Every time. And if you are not getting what you want, you have beliefs that are keeping you where you are. Bust the limiting beliefs and you are free!
If you are saying positive affirmations, created a vision board, visualize and keep a lucky charm in your pocket but you are still not manifesting your desires, you have subconscious limiting beliefs that say “no you can’t, no you aren’t, it’s not going to happen,” that sabotage your positive actions. All the affirmations in the world are not going to work if your underlying core belief is that you are not worthy of your dreams.
Why do we ever not follow our dreams? Why do we limit ourselves and justify and settle? Sometimes beliefs are so ingrained and so a part of who we are, we don’t even realize they are there and that they are limiting us. But if you not living the life of your dreams, you definitely have limiting beliefs holding you back from being the unlimited being that you truly are. Let’s bust em up now!
There are many ways to bust your limiting beliefs:
It is helpful to first identify your limiting beliefs. One way to identify them is to become a conscious thinker. Become observant to your thoughts. Become present and in the moment to what you are thinking about. Notice and observe your thoughts instead of just letting them run on and on. Stop yourself and think about what you are thinking! The background running thoughts that we think without thinking are the subconscious mind running our core patterns and beliefs.
Our conscious mind says, “I am happy, wealthy and healthy, see I even wrote it one hundred times and cut out pictures about it!” And our subconscious mind says, “Oh, no, you’re not, remember that time they told you that you are stupid and would never amount to anything?” And the subconscious dominate belief wins.
Become a conscious thinker and notice when your mind chatter is saying “I’m not good enough, I can never do that, I’ll never have a lot of money.” When you notice those thoughts, don’t get upset with yourself. Just gently bring your thoughts to positive statements such as, “I am worthy, The Universe is loving and supports me, I am abundant in all ways.” With time and repetition, you will start to believe them.
The key here is focus and repetition. Repetition rewires. You can literally rewire the neurons in your brain to create a new path that connects to new core beliefs. Dr. Joe Dispenza of What the Bleep? fame says it takes seventeen days to rewire the neurons in your brain to create to new core beliefs and habits.
I love to use RAPs (Repetitive Audio Programs) for fast and efficient rewiring. RAPs are selected affirmations repeated over and over while you meditate or sleep. When you are in a theta brain wave state, your subconscious is open to receive new information without resistance, making for fast and easy reprogramming. I put on the mp3 before I go to sleep, and then all night the recorded statements are seeping into my subconscious, rewiring my beliefs while I dream. This is my kind of rewiring!
The only problem with repetitive programs is that some people don’t stick with them. They do it for a few days or a week, declare it doesn’t work and then go looking for the next speaker or seminar or book to give them the answer. The problem is, wherever you go, there your beliefs are.
People will also find that resistance can come up after a short while of using a repetitive program. As we are reprogramming our core beliefs, events or emotions come up that need to be released and it can become a bit uncomfortable, so we stop using them.
Be patient, give yourself a break, you have been running these patterns and beliefs for most of your life and the prize you get for releasing them and replacing them is well worth the effort. After all, it’s your life!
Another very effective method for releasing limiting beliefs and old emotional baggage is the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT). EFT uses the energy meridian points on your body, the same ones used for acupuncture. You simply tap on these points in order while going through a sequence of statements that relate to your issue. I have seen miraculous results using EFT and have added it to my coaching practice because it is so quick and easy. EFT is becoming more and more popular as people discover its powerful and rapid belief release abilities.
While I have not yet explored it myself, I have heard great things from people I highly respect about using the Sedona Method for releasing limiting beliefs, so I mention it here.
Hypnotherapy is also great for easily getting to your core beliefs and replacing them with new ones. You can visit a qualified hypnotherapist or even find a self hypnosis program that will guide you into a relaxed theta state and then feed you some new beliefs to hang onto.
Do some research and follow your inner guidance and intuition to find which method will work best for you. It might be one or a combination of them. YOU will know what is best for you. Trust your guidance and what calls to you.
All these methods are great for helping you to release limiting beliefs that no longer serve you, however they are in addition to, and do not take the place of, becoming, right NOW, the person you want to be. Step right into who you really are, your true authentic self. Limitless. Free. Joyful. Abundant. Loving. Be happy now, appreciate what you have now, start to live out your dreams now!
How would you feel if you were living your dreams right now? What would you do? How would you walk, talk, be? Stop seeking and start BEING. Be it NOW, and be it consistently, and watch your limiting beliefs fall away fast! Talk about instant vibrational alignment!
Surround yourself with people who support you in your new beliefs. Get a life coach who will guide you into your dreams and be your cheerleader. Join or form a master mind group where you all support and hold each other in the vision of who you really are. Join positive groups that are aligned with your vision. There is big power in numbers. Take constant inspired action steps towards your dreams. Let go of blame, anger, old emotions and baggage that no longer serve you. Follow your heart and intuition. Take time each and every day for your enlightenment and expansion and health. Overcome the limiting beliefs that bind you and set yourself free!
When you align your core beliefs with your desires, there will be no stopping you. Like gravity, you will not have to think about the Law of Attraction working ever again. You will be too busy living your dreams!

The Power of Visualization: Woman Visualizes $112 Million Lottery Win... And Does It!
Oh, the power of visualization! I cannot stress enough how powerful visualizating your desires, as if you already have them, is. Put yourself in the space of HAVING IT, BEING IT, LIVING IT. Do not waver from that. Feel it through your whole being. Dream Big. Really, really BIG. Let the Universe know that you are open to receiving all that you desire. If you can dream it, if you deeply desire it with passion, you can have it. Know this with all your heart and it shall be. Just ask Cynthia Stafford, a woman about to lose her house who visualized winning $112 million in the lottery and did it! Check this out!

The Avatar Effect – Creating Your Own Personal Pandora
Someone sent me a link to an article on CNN.com about people getting depressed and even suicidal after watching the movie Avatar. The article said in part:
These places/feelings do exist right here, right now. I've been feeling like I am in some kind of magical Pandora right here in San Diego with some incredible nature and mind expanding experiences with birds, bees, clouds and more. I always feel that amazing connection on my property in Costa Rica. Avatar reminded me of HOME.
The Pandora kind of connection to nature and All That Is exists within everyone, right now. Those people feel depressed after watching Avatar because they are missing the connection to who they really are; the intricate and magical connectedness to Source. It is not about a virtual place called Pandora.
When you are being who you truly are, with a strong connection to Source Energy, you see magical nature all around you, no matter where you are. You attract to you friends that share your connection. While you might not press your tails together like they do in Avatar, holding hands and sharing divine energy is the same thing. I feel it when I hold my beautiful cat, Kira. I feel it when the bees come to me and land on me without fear (on both sides!) I feel it when I bask in the beauty of flowers. I feel it when I hug trees. And I feel it when I connect with like minded, high vibing people. Yep, Pandora exists everywhere!
A great thing about people seeing the possibility of a place like Pandora is that they are shooting off rockets of desire and feeling passionate about living that kind of existence. They are entering into the 3D virtual reality of a magical place and existence, which is one of the things we do when creating our reality. The more people who get into the Pandora state of mind, the closer it will become reality on a mass scale. But your Personal Pandora is only a thought and State of Being away.
I highly recommend connecting with nature, and therefore All That Is, in any way you can. Walk barefoot, hug a tree, really listen to the birds singing, watch for shapes and symbols in the clouds. I realize some people are under several feet of snow right now, but that is no excuse. Truly connect with your pets, feel the Source in them. Put rainforest sounds on your CD player, look for pictures of rainbows with your computer. And most of all, FEEL THE CONNECTION to Source within you. You will never feel lost or ache for some far away land when you are in connection with who you really are.
James Cameron's completely immersive spectacle "Avatar" may have been a little too real for some fans who say they have experienced depression and suicidal thoughts after seeing the film because they long to enjoy the beauty of the alien world Pandora.
On the fan forum site "Avatar Forums," a topic thread entitled "Ways to cope with the depression of the dream of Pandora being intangible," has received more than 1,000 posts from people experiencing depression and fans trying to help them cope.This made me realize how blessed I am to have a strong and deep connection with nature and how some others are missing that in their lives; to the point that seeing Avatar would make them suicidal.
A user named Mike wrote on the fan Web site "Naviblue" that he contemplated suicide after seeing the movie. "Ever since I went to see 'Avatar' I have been depressed. Watching the wonderful world of Pandora and all the Na'vi made me want to be one of them. I can't stop thinking about all the things that happened in the film and all of the tears and shivers I got from it," Mike posted. "I even contemplate suicide thinking that if I do it I will be rebirthed in a world similar to Pandora and everything is the same as in 'Avatar.' "
These places/feelings do exist right here, right now. I've been feeling like I am in some kind of magical Pandora right here in San Diego with some incredible nature and mind expanding experiences with birds, bees, clouds and more.

Predictions for 2010...from Beyond
I love this video from my friend, Peter Beamish.
All quotes are from the December 2009 edition of "The Sedona Journal".
The track is called, "Amazing" and the band is "One Eskimo".
And this is from the incredible Stewart St. John who channels Source through his music.

My Statements of Being for 2010 and Beyond
Ah, New Year’s Resolutions… how many have we made… and broken over the years? This year making “resolutions” didn’t seem to resonate with me. I want to step further into the ME that my inner/higher self IS. I am becoming more of who I really am. So I decided instead to write “Statements of Being”. Statements of Who I Am and Who I Am Becoming.
I’ve done a lot of seeking. I know the teachings of Abraham-Hicks, Bashar, Richard Bartlett and countless others. I’ve done a lot of searching for the fundamental questions I had, like who am I and why am I here? I already know the answers. Now it’s time to not only KNOW these teachings on an intellectual level, but to BECOME them, EMBODY them, LIVE them. In every moment possible.
I write these Statements of Being not only as a statement to the Universe of Who I Really Am, but also as a reminder to myself on days that I seem to forget or find myself really bored and disconnected. Kind of like a spiritual cheat sheet. LOL. It happens to the very best of us… after all, we DID come here for the human experience. So when I find myself lost in my human experience, oblivious to my role as the Observer, temporarily forgetting why I am here and WHO I REALLY AM, I shall read my Statements of Being and remember… once again.
It is the gift I give to myself that will keep on giving, just when I need it.
When I am focused on my connection to All that Is, all these things just happen naturally, I AM BEING my higher self and I don’t have to read a list to remember how to be and who I am. But it’s when I am a little off kilter that these Statements will serve me well as reminders that beam me back up to my heart connection.
I fully believe in the power of writing things down as it sends my passionate desires and statements of being into the Ethers of the Universe and also serves to get me into the feeling/becoming place. It has always worked for me. I keep a Master List such as the one below and then create more detailed lists about various subjects that I break out from the Master List (abundance, health, relationships, homes, careers, etc.) So, I shall continue for this year of 2010, a year that excites and thrills me without yet knowing why.
• I expect the best possible outcome. And so it is.
• Everything always works out for me.
• I am lucky, I am blessed, I am divinely guided at all times.
• I follow my own guidance; I always go with what feels best to me, no matter what others say.
• I know that divine orchestration and divine timing is always in play.
• I let go of limiting relationships and beliefs with ease.
• I came here for the human game, and I play it with joy.
• I do not depend upon other people, places, things, surroundings events for my happiness. Only I am responsible for my happiness. And that gives me all the power over my experience.
• I see others through my broad Source Perspective of Love.
• I know that in any given moment, I have the choice of how I feel, and I choose the higher, broader, perspective of love and well being.
• I notice and appreciate the synchronicities, I notice and appreciate the magic, I notice and appreciate the divine love and well being in everything.
• I take what resonates for me and become it NOW.
• I ask myself “What are the unlimited beliefs I can hold about this and why not think them now?”
• I know that passion creates manifestation, so I acknowledge what makes me passionate and focus on THAT!
• I take complete and total responsibility for anything I create in my reality, and when I perceive something that I have created as not wanted, I look at it as an opportunity to show me what I do want. And then I focus on and get passionate about THAT.
• I always know exactly where I am vibrating and what my beliefs are in any given situation by looking at my checking account, my relationships, what I am manifesting, and if they are not where I want them to be, I do the vibrational/belief work to shift them.
• Just as I want others to allow me to be, I allow others to be. And I BE ME. True to myself. My authentic self. Always.
• I ask myself…. “Is what I am thinking right now what I want in my reality? Is what I am thinking in alignment with who I really am?” If yes, continue thought process, if no, it’s thought shift time.
• Thou shalt follow my bliss.
• I remember to reference these Statements of Being when I need them.
• Feeling good is most important.
• I am in my heart space/vortex and step out for no one and nothing. It feels too good in here!
• This is the year of BECOMING. 2010 is the best year EVER!
• Before writing, talking, acting… I ask, “Does this come from a place of inspiration, from a place of love, does this serve me and others?”
• I am living out loud and singing out loud.
• I bask in my uniqueness.
• I love myself unconditionally and know that I am worthy of all my desires.
• I am keeping my thoughts in the NOW. If I find my thoughts wandering, I gently bring them back to NOW. Like a waking meditation. All the time.
• I am pure source energy expressing in a human body.
• I am basking as Source comes through me as I hold the vibrations of pure love and appreciation.
• I am more cat-like… including taking cat naps when my body asks for them.
• I act from inspiration, not shoulds.
• When I get comfortable in my life and creations, and especially then, I remember to continue expanding through the ways that work for me. After all, we never get it done.
• I am applying the unlimiting beliefs I have about things I already do and manifest well to the areas in my life where I want to create unlimited beliefs.
• I feel first, then think.
• I speak of only possibilities instead of arguing for limitations.
• My beliefs are only thoughts I keep thinking. I can change my beliefs by changing my thoughts and emotional response to them. One by one, or bunches at a time.
• I am thinking the thoughts that match what I want until I believe them. I use my imagination and visualization to feel forward until it is TRUE.
• I am laughing a lot
• When I find myself beginning to resist things that are working for me (listening to affirmations at night, reading a particular book, or whatever), I remember that it is my limiting beliefs fighting for their lives causing the resistance. I remember why I want to change these beliefs, keep doing what is working for me for at least 17 days, and therefore create new unlimited beliefs by rewiring my brain.
• I am of service to others, not out of obligation, but from inspiration.
• I am dancing as if no one is watching

The Power of Repetative Audio Programs (RAPs) for Shifting Beliefs and Manifestation
I recently discovered the power of listening to repeated affirmations, repetitive audio programs (RAPs) while sleeping. When we sleep, we are in an alpha state, a state of non-resistance where our subconscious beliefs are easily tapped into. During the day, we stay focused with positive thoughts, but sometimes our deeper beliefs held on a subconscious level are stamping out our good work.
I have had amazing results in all aspects of my life with listening to looping affirmations while in the state of sleep/non resistance, especially when coupled with bineural beat music, like the Guided Visualization I created.
It's perfect for people like me who don't like to do many processes. I just turn on my ipod and go to sleep. Now that is MY kind of process!
I knew my recorded affirmations were working and could feel the difference for sure, but then I started feeling a resistance...kind of an irritation when I went to put on my RAP playlist before going to sleep that made me want to just put on music instead.
I asked myself what that was about and my guidance told me that it was my limiting beliefs fighting for their lives...the constant affirmations at night were breaking them down and they were resisting being written over with new unlimited beliefs. I knew this was the most important time of all to push through it, keep listening, break on through to the other side!! So after a two or three night break, I started up again.
Truly, I am having amazing results in the way I feel and think. The trick is to stick with it, especially when you feel resistance, as this is a sign that your limiting beliefs are being shifted. Personally, I am really liking this Night Shift thing.
Of course, I recommend the looping affirmations I have created as it covers all aspects of wellness and wellbeing, including weight loss, abundance, worthiness, and more, and there are many others that can be found on the internet. I recommend ones with bineural beats for added sinking in factor!

Of course, I recommend the looping affirmations I have created as it covers all aspects of wellness and wellbeing, including weight loss, abundance, worthiness, and more, and there are many others that can be found on the internet. I recommend ones with bineural beats for added sinking in factor!
Sierra's New Becoming Thin Guided Visualization mp3 is here!
This is a visualization process for you to BECOME the healthy, thin, abundant person you desire to be.
It is enhanced with binaural beats which allow you to ease into a deeper state of concentration which synchronizes both hemispheres of your brain, causing higher awareness, intellectual thought and comprehension, and therefore you receive the information on a deeper subconscious level. Guaranteed to change the way you think and feel!

"I have been listening to your Guided Visualization for almost a month straight, and I am noticing significant changes in how I feel about food, and especially about myself. I am much more confident and happy and have been dropping pounds easily and effortlessly. Thank you for this gift, Sierra!"

My Goodbye 2009 Rap Song
Bye Bye Bye 2009
I must admit I did feel fine
But now it's time to say goodbye
I release you, I leave you, I shall not cry
Bye Bye Bye limiting beliefs
Bye Bye people who brought me grief
Bye Bye to thoughts that create unwanted
Bye Bye to feelings that kept me haunted
I say goodbye to say hello
All that doesn't serve me, you have to go
As I release the old, come new thoughts that deliver
What's next, who knows, but it makes me shiver
Bye Bye Bye 2009
I must admit I did feel fine
I love you now and I loved you then
But you can't hold a candle to 2010!

I say goodbye to say hello
All that doesn't serve me, you have to go

Following Your Inner Guidance & Becoming Your Higher Self
We all have heard about our intuition or inner guidance. Some call it your soul, or higher being or inner being or higher self or even our sixth sense. All of these terms can be used interchangeably because for me, they all mean the same thing: the divine super intelligence that is the bigger part of us, the non physical part of us that is always connected to divine, supreme, higher, God Source energy. It is who we really are. That inner voice, the intuition; that is the God in YOU. You always have access to that. We can’t ask for better inner guidance than that!
We all have that constant, steady, always ready connection to divine God Source intelligence. You are not the lone human on the planet without this guidance. And people, please, God did not stop talking when the Ten Commandments were handed down to Moses. God still speaks through us, through the voice and guidance of our inner being. How cool is that?
It is important to learn to hear and trust that inner guidance. Your higher self always feels good. Being your higher self and listening to your inner guidance is connecting with who you really are; that thin, healthy, happy person who allows themselves to receive all the good that is theirs by divine birthright. YOU know you are worthy and deserving of all that YOU desire when you are connected with the HIGHER YOU.
Using your inner guidance and intuition is essential for a balanced, joyful life. Most importantly, you use your inner guidance to find your inspiration, what turns you on, what makes you go Oh Yeah, Baby!
Use your inner guidance to find what inspires you, your true journey or what I like to call my Divine Path. I know that when I follow the divine signs and messages that come to me, when I follow my inspiration, things easily flow into place. Connections, people, places things come to me that I never could have imagined. That’s when I know I am aligned with who I really am.
When you feel good, you are seeing things through the perspective of your higher self. When you are connected with your Higher YOU is when inspired ideas and magical messages and divine signs come easily and frequently. To be inspired is to be “in-spirit”. When we feel inspired, we are connected to God Source, and from that place we can create anything, including our desired weight.
It’s time to connect yourself with your body by listening to your inner guidance that knows what your body wants and needs. Your body will talk to you in various ways and direct you.
That’s how I knew I was totally aligned with losing weight this time. The journey was easy for me because I had used my inner guidance to show me the way to the best things to eat, how to exercise, and the best thoughts and feelings for quick and easy weight loss.
For instance, when I began my weight loss journey, I was called to order and drink Japanese Green tea. Not the Lipton variety, mind you, but the real stuff from Japan. And it wasn’t just the constant spam about weight loss with green tea that I kept receiving. I just KNEW it was for me. I felt like my body was calling for it. Every time I saw something about Japanese green tea, I felt something resonate within me. Of course, it turned out to be the closest thing to a magic pill outside myself that I could have found. It worked and still works amazingly for me. And I found it by using my intuition, what felt really good to me, not just by reading studies and believing other people’s stories of success.
Here’s another thing I discovered when I really listened to my body and inner guidance. Six smaller meals, instead of three bigger ones, really worked for me. I was never hungry, it was easier and this kept my metabolism up too. Where did 3 meals per day rule start anyway? Who made that rule anyway? Yes, it is the society norm but does this work for everyone? It doesn’t work for me and I no longer eat that way.
It is good to have your own beliefs; you take in all kinds of information from well meaning friends, the internet and books and gleen what feels good and resonates with you. But also don’t get stuck in your beliefs, keep exploring and expanding for what feels good to you. You are unique and the exact combination of foods, supplements and exercise is also uniquely yours. You are looking for the choices that feel good to you, what resonates with you, what makes you feel good.
Don’t let people convince you that something is good for you and you have to try it because it works for them or they think you should do it. Just because something works for one person, it might not work for another. If you have doubts, there is a reason… don’t let others influence you to do something you don’t feel good about. FEEL your way through, listen to your inner guidance and you will be led down the divine path for you! However, if it feels good, do it because often our guidance comes through others. As you listen to your feelings, your guidance, your heart, you will know when it is meant JUST FOR YOU!
Use your own inner guidance on ideas and concepts presented to you. Your guidance is there to lead you on your Path in a divinely guided way, to make it easy and flowing for you. You will just know what resonates with you and will work best for you. Trust it. Go with it. YOU know what is best for you!
If you don’t already feel you have a strong connection with your inner guidance, well you do! You just don’t realize it yet. We ALL have that connection; it is just different for each person.
The easiest way to follow your inner guidance is to allow your emotions be your guide. If you don’t feel good, you are not feeling or thinking about the situation from the perspective of your higher self. In other words, if we feel bad about how we look and get upset and feel like a failure, we are not looking at the situation through the eyes of Source. That’s why we feel bad! Your higher self sees you as perfect the way you are, and when you don’t see you that way, you feel bad.
Many people meditate to connect more profoundly with their inner being. Some find that guidance can flow out through them by writing or typing in a meditative state, others just ask and hear the answer come into their mind or they are shown in a short time the answer to their question by divine signs and messages. You do not need to sit in the lotus position for hours every day. A short 15 minutes done consistently each day is all you need to start connecting on a deeper level.
Edgar Cayce promoted 'creative writing.' He described this as sitting quietly and in a reflective state, even a spiritually attuned state, and then letting thoughts and ideas flow to you, writing them down as they come. Don’t think of these as being for others or for publication. The guidance is for you; it is communication from your higher self, even from God, to your outer self.
That voice you hear when you ask yourself a question, usually the first answer you get, but not always, is your inner/higher guidance. The voice that doubts and says you can’t do it, or it’s not possible or that you do not deserve it is NOT your inner guidance, but the B.S. (belief systems) you have built up over the years. The idea is to allow the voice of your inner guidance overrule and conquer your negative, limiting belief systems.
I asked my friend David how he would tell the average person how to connect to their inner being. He answered the following:
“I would start by saying hi to my inner being. Hello! Inner Being! In other words, I would acknowledge the presence of my inner being and I would affirm or intend to want to become a part of my inner being more intimately on a daily basis.
So whenever I give thought to the fact that I have a much larger part of me on the inside in the unseen world I become more and more a part of that person and I then open myself up to all the benefits of aligning myself with my inner self or my God self or my Source self.
Now if a person is filled with too many outer thoughts to hear their inner being at first, I would consider some quiet time meditation to still the outer voices filling the brain. When all the mind chatter is quieted, one will really be tapping more into their inner being like never before.”
How you communicate with your inner being and receiving divine guidance is very personal to you. And how your higher self communicates with you is also very unique. Some people feel that their inner being is a female, some a male, some a “group”. Some see visions, some hear their guidance like a voice, and for some it is strong urges… or all of them. There is no “right” way to connect and communicate with your higher being. The important thing is to do it, trust it and listen to it. The more you connect, the more you will easily flow down the river of life!
