Your Diamond Mind –
Power of Peaceful Ideas
Ideas which bring peace to us expand to bring peace to others.
When we learn to live a life of peace, it counteracts the disturbances and violence of the news.
We learn to reject what does not bring well-being for all.
We learn to continue to expand our peace even in the midst of the news and advertising harassment.
We have a life which characterizes the inner listener.
We are prepared for whatever may come through quiet, habitual, daily listening within.
The ideas which we share are peaceful ideas.
They generate peace when they are practiced.
We live in a way which promotes well-being for all.
No one is left out.
This generates peace.
When we are all able to contribute our skills and talents and gifts to creating a peaceful community, we all do well.
We all know each other.
No one is left in isolation.
We value and respect everyone.
We are all worthy.
We look for opportunities for self-improvement and for opportunities to offer skills development through sharing our knowledge.
Whatever is needed in our community can be met by those who are willing to learn new skills.
With this community-wide practice, we have an overflow of gifts to share.
We invite other communities to develop their local resources.
We invite them to practice daily inner listening, individually, and collectively.
Whatever is brought for common cause can be acted on in a way which contributes well-being for all.
This is the greatest gift for all of us, at any time.

Pebbles of Peace –
Peaceful Gifts
Peaceful gifts show up when they are most needed.
Our gift is to recognize this and tune into their arrival.
We can expect the arrival of peace by turning away from disturbances and listening within.
There is always a message of peace, once we let the noise of the day pass over us.
We sit quietly until we feel ourselves relax.
As we release the tension in our body, we release the tension in our mind.
Our peaceful mind reminds us that all is well, that there is a Source for wellness.
We can choose the Source for wellness and receive Its’ gifts.
We are ready to receive gifts of peaceful solutions.
We sense the next effective step for our project.
We find the best route across town.
We connect with the expert for our field.
Surprising and unexpected things occur which move us forward.
We reference the feeling of peace when this happens.
We build an expectation for peaceful solutions.
We sit quietly and wait for the answer to come to us.
It is always there.
Our acceptance of this fact shows that we are aware of our Source.
We are willing to trust the solutions to appear in a timely manner.
We live a life of greater ease and less tension.
Finally, we learn to release tension as a practice, while we wait for the solution.
We find what we are looking for.
We accept the innovative idea from a teammate.
We are alerted to an unusual source for supply of the materials we need.
Whatever we need appears in peace.

Loved Cherished Adored –
What is our ultimate gift to ourself?
Our ultimate gift to ourself is patience.
We will get there. Pressuring ourselves does not work.
There is work that is being done and we are being impelled forward by it.
Our desire to solve our problems and overcome our challenges brings in the energy to do it.
The first steps are the most difficult.
Convincing ourselves to do it despite our long history of discomfort requires tremendous energy.
Even though it looks like a tiny thing, it is powerful desire which has set it in motion.
The next steps are hard, too, but the opening has been created.
How we proceed is up to us.
It is up to us not to return to the level of discomfort even if it is only a tiny bit different.
Continuing patiently and determinedly with our tiny steps continues to create the new path which will lead us out of our present circumstances.
New steps appear in new directions as we release our fears bit by bit.
Our goal is to live well, to create a feeling of well-being for our day-to-day life.
We can do it.
We can take the deep breath which allows us to listen within.
Our new circumstances come from the breath of calm we connect with over and over again.
Our level of discomfort is our motivating factor.
We can continue to create a moment of calm and trust for ourselves with our deep breath.
Each deep breath strengthens our connection and our conviction.
We stop looking at our circumstances, which are already well-established in our thought.
We focus on the feeling of the deep breath.
Graudally, we create the new circumstances as we listen to Guidance and take our steps.
Breath. Listen. Act.
This creates a new habit and a new life.

Young Persons Mentor/Uplifting Parenting –
Healing gifts of harmony
Harmony in the household is the best gift.
Healing takes place in so many ways when there are many interactions between members of the household.
Misunderstandings can be corrected with patience.
A sincere interest in receiving healing brings it about.
The desire for harmony for everyone creates space for it.
New ways of expressing appreciation open up.
We can create more space for harmony and healing as we become aware of the need.
Making space for daily communication allows needs to be expressed.
We know that our desire to see everyone comforted and provided for opens us to receive the healing ideas for each member.
We can also provide the healing we need through making time for rest.
We can build in supportive structures which allow us the time to process what we need, in preparation for providing for others.
Setting ourselves on a firm foundation where we require and receive support creates a flow for healing.
Our uplifting attitude requires refueling.
Then we can share our harmony and see to others’ needs on a regular basis.
Most importantly, other household members learn how to give within the household.
When everyone participates in creating an uplifting and healing atmosphere, it happens.
All the nuances of living are hamonized.
We all seek out ways to express healing and harmony.
We fill in the niches of doubt and criticism with reassurance and support.
We become aware of ways in which our actions can be healing and uplifting.
We use our words carefully and attentively.
We maintain our space in an orderly way.
We do everything we can to promote harmony and healing in our household.
