"If you're able to be yourself, then you have no
competition. All you have to do is get closer and closer to that
essence." — Barbara Cook
When you watch groups of young children
and groups of adults play, chances are you will notice how children have
freedom of personal expression. Children are less prone to worry about
whether their socks match or they say just the right thing, and are more
likely to spontaneously do and say things that inspires them. We recognize
inspiration when we see it in performers and artists, and we appreciate
feeling the very essence of who we are when we are engaged in doing what we
love with those we love. Finding the essence of who you are can be found
through play, meditation, and asking yourself who you truly are.
Just as you could discern the difference between a human being and a
physical zombie that looks and behaves like a human, but has no human
conscious states, you can tell when you feel like you’re being
fully yourself. Being yourself includes focusing on what matters to you,
and caring about those you love. There’s a sparkle in your eye
and a spring in your step when you’re being yourself that is
just about completely the opposite from how you feel when going through the
motions without feeling fully involved. And when you feel fully involved,
you are most likely to experience some of the most amazing reality shifts
and quantum jumps.
I was mulling over what matters most to me a
few days ago, appreciating to myself how I feel certain that every good
thing comes from Spirit, comes from God. I was feeling deeply appreciative
of how health, wealth, happiness, luck, and wisdom seem empty to me without
Spirit—without God. I was driving my car while feeling this
sense of reverence and deep connection, when I heard a sudden "Pow!" noise,
followed by intermittent hissing and a kind of "Thwup-thwup-thwup" sound as
the steering became less fluid and the front right side of the car went
slightly down—the distinctive sound and felt the distinctive
feel of my car’s right front tire going flat.
"Oh,
no,” I thought, as I found a clear place to pull the car
over and park. I got out of the driver’s side door and walked
around the front of my car to inspect the right front tire. What I saw
confounded me—the right front tire looked good. I walked back to
the driver’s side door, and then thought to myself,
“No way!” and returned to take a second look,
much closer this time. The tire appeared to be completely inflated, with no
indication of any type of trouble. From what I’d just felt and
heard, including during the time I’d driven seeking a safe place
to pull over and park, I expected to see the car had been driving on a
deflated tire, riding on the rim of the right front wheel. But there was no
mistaking that this tire looked good. I returned again to the
driver’s side, sat down behind the wheel, started the engine,
and slowly pulled back onto the road, listening with windows open for any
unusual sounds. With heightened sensitivity, I heard the gravelly noise of
tires rolling over asphalt—apparently the normal noise of
driving down the street.
I checked the tire at the parking garage,
and again when I got home—and every time I looked, I saw that it
was fine. As the flat tire had vanished before I’d seen it, the
memory of what I heard and felt seemed more distant. I began to doubt that
I’d really heard and felt a flat tire, but also had a nagging
suspicious that it might actually be flat, and the air pressure should be
checked. After all tires were checked, I was stunned to learn that one of
them was fully inflated to manufacturer’s
specifications—the right front tire! All the rest were slightly
deflated, as is normal after having driven for some time.
One
might think I’d be properly wowed by all this, but instead I
found this reality shift a bit hard to wrap my mind around. I thought to
myself, “You must be confused. You must be mistaken. No way
could something like this happen—it’s just too
unusual, to improbable. I’ve never heard of such a thing.
Therefore, it’s much more likely that for some bizarre reason I
mistakenly heard and felt indications that seemed to suggest my car was
experiencing a flat tire, when it actually
wasn’t.” Part of the reason I initially
disregarded such a miraculous reality shift had to do with the way I was
able to remember hearing and feeling a flat tire—and also at the
same time feeling that was a distant far-off reality, due to my feeling
this reality shift was just a bit too far out, even for me.
The
next day, I learned my phone answering machine was full of
messages—dating back to 2012! I like to archive some of the
messages from friends and family before erasing them from the answering
machine, and I’d just two months earlier transferred the phone
recordings. So how could the machine be full of messages again? I found my
cassette tape and recorder, and froze in confusion and astonishment as I
held them in my hands. The batteries in my tape recorder were old and
starting to leak, the cassette tape cases were dusty, and my handwriting on
the cassette indicated I’d last archived phone messages in 2012.
After the batteries were replaced in the tape recorder, I heard a recording
of my own voice ending the last recorded phone messages stating the year
was 2012. “What?! This doesn’t make
sense—I just transferred phone messages a couple of months
ago!” I had replaced the batteries, dusted all the cassette
cases, written notes on the cassette, recorded my voice with the year
2015—but now there was no record of any of that. The dust, my
voice on the recording saying 2012 , and my handwriting on the cassette
with the 2012 date all begged to differ with what I knew to be true, but
now had no record for.
After finding a new cassette tape to
record on, with the message transfer once more underway, I wondered,
“What on Earth is the point of having to do all this work
over again?!” I then remembered how I’d
disregarded the miracle I’d just experienced with my
instantly-repaired flat tire. While it is true that car miracles tend to be
more common—probably partly due to people being in relaxed,
meditative states of mind while driving—this car miracle was
different. I’d just started driving and was engaged in heartfelt
morning prayers that morning. I was in a very high state of grace, rather
than relaxed meditation, feeling about the highest level of reverence and
rapture I can sustain while driving a car. This is probably the most
important detail in my experience, since it feels a lot to me like "God
fixed my flat tire. Instantly. With perfect inflation to exact manufacturer
specs." I've never before had a reality shift quite like this one, which is
probably why I felt initially inclined to dismiss it—since it
seems so improbable as to feel it’s almost impossible.
When feeling the frustration of having to do the work of transferring phone
messages all over again, while observing how my methodical record-keeping
was so different than expected (notes on the cassette tape showing 2012
rather than 2015, voiceover recording of the 2012 date, and placement of
the tape after the last transfer of messages, with dust over everything as
if it had been sitting undisturbed for years) really drove home the point
for me that there is no limit to how big or fast things can change. Even
and including instantaneously fixed flat tires that get fixed faster than
you can even see! Especially when you've just been thanking God with all
your heart and soul for bringing every good thing to be.
Being
yourself is a process of discovering just how good your life can be when
you stay focused on how good your life can get. Keep asking “How
good can it get?!” as you focus on how you can utilize your
unique gifts in service to the world at the highest level possible. By
acknowledging a sense of how your life can be much larger and more
fulfilling than ever before, you access the level of infinite, eternal
consciousness where the most extraordinary reality shifts and quantum jumps
occur.

How to Break Cell Phone
Addiction Have you noticed signs of cell
phone addiction in yourself or others? Maybe you’ve tried to get
someone’s attention, and found they were so deeply ensconced in
their cellphone that they were completely oblivious to you and pretty much
everyone and everything around them. Or perhaps you’ve noticed
you’re spending just a bit too much time on your phone when you
dozed off with cellphone in hand, texted someone standing next to you, or
grabbed your phone before doing anything else when you woke up. Cell phones
can do a marvelous job of helping us stay connected with friends, family,
and colleagues, but they can also be a bit addictive. Good news! You can
break the addiction to constantly check your cell phone by utilizing the
concept of the Quantum Zeno mechanism for mental control over bodily
action. Dr. Henry Stapp describes a little bit about how this works in a
paper he presented at the 2014 Foundations of Mind conference, Mind, Brain
and Neuroscience, about a way of better understanding the role of free
will. Dr. Henry Stapp, a colleague of Wolfgang Pauli and Werner Heisenberg,
emphasizes the significance of our choices in influencing the realities we
experience: Read the full post here: http://wp.me/pbqQk-H1
Interview
with Cynthia Sue Larson on the nature of the universe
After writing a review for my book, Quantum Jumps, author,
mudsmith and psychologist Dr. Bob Rich asked my
permission to interview me. He asked some questions that nobody has
previously asked me, such as, "What was it like to be a female Physics
student at University?” and we had a fascinating conversation
about anomalous events, teleportation, quantum technologies and
consciousness. You can join the dialogue by adding comments, questions,
observations and ideas in the comment section at the bottom of this
interview, and I would love to know what you think! The interview
starts like this:
BOB: What was it like to be a female
Physics student at University?
CYNTHIA: I’d love
to say "No big deal," but the truth is I felt keenly aware of being one of
a handful of women physics majors at UC Berkeley. I was painfully shy
during my college years, so I mostly remember wishing I could just blend
in, while knowing that was simply not going to be an option, when there
were just five or six women physics majors total on campus. I remember
having an initial sinking feeling with mostly subconscious doubts along the
lines of, “Women must not be good at physics,”
followed immediately by my conscious thoughts of, “Lots of women
just like me are great at physics!” I’m glad I talked
back to my subconscious doubts, because that gave me enough of an emotional
energy boost to do my best.
The New
Science of Instant Transformation Quantum
jumping is an everyday experience for us each time we jump out of bed on
mornings we’d rather not get up, or feel noticeable improvement
when our mother puts a Band-Aid on our knee and "kisses the boo-boo
better." Shamans utilize quantum jumping when they assist people with
healing, and the ever-increasing “placebo effect” in
modern-day western medicine indicates people are increasingly accessing
parallel worlds where they are healthy and well. Feeling stuck in a
dead-end job or relationship, or longing for a fresh new start in life?
Quantum Jumping shows how if you can imagine or dream it, you can take a
leap into a wonderful new world. Quantum jumps require both a flash of
insight that a new reality is possible, and a burst of sufficient energy to
make the leap. Those decisive instants when we feel simultaneously
energized by knowledge of a better reality and inspired to act are the
moments that we make quantum jumps.
Woman Miraculously
Recovered After Stillbirth Hernando
Fayetteville, North Carolina, USA
In 1962 I was a young doctor in
Colombia, South America; just out of medical school. After completing my
year of internship, we were required then to work in a rural area for one
year prior to getting the MD degree, and I chose Barichara, a beautiful
small town, which had a nice hospital. I was the only doctor in town and on
Nov 24, I got a call from the mother superior, Sister Teresa who was the
administrator of the hospital, to let me know that she had received a phone
call telling her that there was a woman on the way to the hospital, coming
from a farm up in the mountains who was ready to deliver a baby but had
been bleeding for 2 days and was very sick. The only way to get her to the
hospital was by horseback and the husband was bringing her. I asked her to
let me know as soon as she got to the hospital. Around 6 pm the woman
arrived and I was there within 5 minutes. When I examined her, I noted she
was in shock, no blood pressure, pulse hardly palpable, very week and
extremely pale from anemia caused by persistent bleeding. She looked more
like a dead body. The fetus had no heart beat, it was already dead. I
determined that the only chance she had was to perform an immediate
cesarean section. Since she was unconscious, I did not bother to give her a
spinal anesthesia. I removed the dead fetus, and as if this were not
enough, as I was doing the surgery I realized she had developed a fatal
complication called consumption coagulopathy, a condition in which the
blood loses the ability to clot and it is impossible to stop the bleeding.
The uterus had a generalized oozing that could not be stopped with sutures.
I felt that she probably had no more blood left to lose. During the whole
procedure she never had a blood pressure, and we were unable to transfuse
her because the equipment we had requested had not arrived. For all
practical purposes she was dead, except that she had an occasional breath.
Knowing that there was no hope, I closed the uterus, but did not bother to
close the fascia or muscles, just closed the skin. I talked to Sister
Teresa about the hopeless situation, but, she insisted that she would not
die. I said to her: Sister, If she does not die I will quit medicine
because all that they have taught me is false. The next morning I came to
make rounds. I asked Sister Teresa at what time she had died. She had a
grin in her face as she said: I told you she would make it, you just
don’t have faith, come I will show you. I found the patient
sitting up in bed, having breakfast. Her chicks were pink, she was
cheerful, had no further bleeding and the inner aspect of her eye lids were
red. Vital signs were normal, she had obviously materialized out of thin
air at least 6 units of blood !!! I had to take her to the OR the next day
to close her surgical wound adequately. She left the hospital a few days
later, her wound well healed, happy, as though nothing had happened. To
this day, I have no explanation for that miracle. It is possible that
Sister Teresa’s faith was so unshaken that she switched to a
parallel universe where the patient never bled?
Note from
Cynthia: Thank you so very much for sharing with me the letter to Ms.
Owens, recounting your remarkable miraculous experience in Columbia in
1962. I appreciate your recollection of precise details regarding the
medical condition of the pregnant woman in your care at that time, and your
honest assessment that with the serious condition of consumption
coagulopathy, her prognosis looked grim. Yes, this does appear to be an
example of consciousness moving to another parallel reality in which the
woman could fully recover. It's been my experience that the presence of a
person of faith can be highly conducive to miraculous healing results,
which seems to have been the case at this time. I find your first-hand
account to be tremendously inspirational and uplifting, as well as
providing well-documented evidence of a remarkable medical miracle--and
quantum jump.

I wanted to briefly relate an
experience that happened to me a couple of days ago. Basically I went out
for the afternoon and when I returned I went into my bedroom and froze! The
whole room felt slightly different. Indeed, my bedside cabinet was angled
slightly differently, the chair looked like it had been moved and some
books on the other bedside cabinet looked like they were in a different
place. It all felt so different that I thought I had disturbed a thief. I
went round the apartment but there were no signs of a disturbance and
everything was locked form the inside (wooden Italian window shutters have
locks on them) and in any case I live at the top of a condo with a sheer
drop to the ground that even Spiderman might find a bit of a challenge. So
... maybe I had stepped into a different place? But why? and how? and to
what purpose? Prior to this experience, I had spent some weeks strongly
wanting to get free from a specific personal situation that had occupied my
mind a lot. Prior to returning home on that day, I had been in a very
emotionally charged situation. This situation does feel different now
actually. Maybe I'm putting 2 and 2 together and coming-up with 5! Dunno -
was a strange experience though.
Note from Cynthia:
Strong emotions are often associated with powerful reality shift
experiences--so it makes sense to me that you'd just been through a very
emotionally charged situation after strongly desiring a change in a
specific personal situation.
Entry
Code Change Brian Winslow, Maine, USA
Cynthia, I find Reality Shifting bizarre and not a little unsettling
since it's happened to me several times in my life. The most recent event
happened this week when I tried to gain access to my workplace via the
numeric keypad attached to the outside wall. I punched in the usual four
digit combination, as I had done for months prior, only to be rewarded with
the red LED of no admittance, instead of the welcoming green. The door
remained stubbornly locked, and after several more failed attempts I went
inside by a different entrance with a different code. Later in the day I
tracked down the maintenance department and asked them what the new code
was. They denied the code had been changed. Feeling a bit spooked I left
them, went outside, and tried the code I knew, only to again be met with a
locked door. Eerily, a coworker arrived at that moment, saw my fumbling,
and easily entered the code for us both to get inside. She recited it aloud
for my benefit, perhaps thinking I had forgotten. The only thing was, the
new code had a single digit different from the one I knew. Such a subtle
reality shift, such a tiny blip of change, but I am wondering what else has
been altered in my environment, indeed, the whole world at large? Are words
in my books changed, new, or omitted? Are the fluid levels in my car
different? Are my colleagues different versions of the ones I've worked
with who now have alternate memories of me? Was there a single event
somewhere, somewhen which has fractured spacetime in this manner? Is this
all a side-effect of DNA division? Or the cause? Whatever the origin, it is
a most peculiar phenomenon in that the shifts are minute, small change sort
of alterations which don't send the general population into panic. They
just fascinate and provide stock for wonder and maybe a little worry. I
have a copy of Reality Shifts
that I found engrossing. Now, hopefully it's the same version that you
actually remember writing—That’s the thing, isn't it?
Personally, I'd feel even more unnerved if things suddenly appeared from
nowhere, like the sausages you mentioned. It's a matter of trust in the
universe, I suppose. If stuff comes and goes, winks in and out of
existence, how does one dare to take a step?! Rags and riches woven from
the same illusory cloth which unravels with deep inspection. I suspect
someone elsewhere has already put together a quantum computer and turned it
on, and the wretched machine is overwriting everything everywhere because
its memory core is infinite with data containment failure.
Note from Cynthia: Thanks so much for writing to me about the
change in building access code at your workplace. Yes, very often reality
shifts can be subtle ones with very minor changes from what had been
familiar before--and sometimes they can be much bigger, such as influence
life-and-death. As I've written in my book, Reality Shifts, words in books
definitely can change. I've previously reported incidents experienced by
myself and others in the RealityShifters ezine of movie content
changing--sometimes even the most significant scenes in movies have
changed, which can also influence the duration and length of a movie. Fluid
levels in your car can indeed be different, or as happened for me
yesterday, a tire that had just gone flat with a sound of rolling on tire
rims being instantly changed to a tire that is now the most inflated tire
on my car (I pulled over right away to inspect the tire, and again checked
it later that day). I discuss in both my books Reality Shifts and Quantum
Jumps the ways that yes, your colleagues most likely are different versions
of the ones you've worked with who do have different alternate memories of
you--and this is also true of your early childhood friends and family
members. Rather than a single fracturing event, this is part of the
intrinsic quantum logic nature of reality itself, which mankind is only now
fully beginning to appreciate, thanks to our search for scientific and
technological mastery of quantum physics required to build, operate, and
program quantum computers.
Opened Box of Mustard is Sealed Again Jo Bournemouth, Dorset, UK
On 11th June 2015, I made
up some mustard to accompany a meal I was preparing. I prefer to make
mustard from the powder rather than use the already prepared tube variety.
I had 2 boxes of mustard in the cupboard, as I mistakenly bought and opened
another one some time ago, thinking I needed a new box. Since both boxes
were now opened, I thought I would use the contents of the soonest to
expire box first, in this case, the one that had a ‘best before
date’ of October 2015. The other box has a best before date of
August 2016. Anyway, I reached into the cupboard and brought out both
boxes, just as I had a number of times before. But this time, I was
surprised to see that one of the boxes was sealed. This was the box that I
was going to use and had last made mustard from only 2 days before! I was
amazed to see that its seal was now intact. I remember that I opened it a
while back, cutting around the seal with a sharp knife. Now the box remains
in its new unopened state as I write this, a week later. Will it stay that
way? Well, for the moment at least, it’s a tangible reminder and
‘proof’ for me that alternative reality states really
do exist. It's strange about the mustard. There was a significant time
between buying both- I can't remember how long. But the spooky bit is that
on 9th June when I made mustard and when both boxes were unsealed, I had
the lids off of both boxes and was thinking how funny it was to have 2
boxes opened as well as wondering which box would provide better tasting
mustard. Silly really, but it was memorable and helps me trust my 'memory'
and experience on this peculiar happening. (Or was I dreaming then, or in
an altered state, I ask myself!) Anyway, as soon as I bought and got the
second box home I opened it then got mildly irritated when I noticed that
there was already an opened one in the cupboard.
Note from
Cynthia: That's amazing that you remember having opened both boxes of
mustard, having opened a second one accidentally before realizing you
already had a box in the cupboard--and then subsequently noticed only one
box of mustard had been opened!
Bilocation Experience Jo
Bournemouth, Dorset, UK
During my 20’s and early
40’s especially, a number of different people on separate
occasions told me that they saw me in other places doing different things.
They sometimes said they spoke with me too and that ‘I’
was usually outdoors in nature somewhere. At these times, however, I knew
that I couldn’t have been in these places because I remembered
consciously where I was in each case. I never took these
‘stories’ seriously before, but now, having read your
newsletter and Reality Shifts and Quantum Jumps books, I’m
wondering if I really could have been in two places at once! I'd most
likely be in my favourite place if it's related to daydreaming. Nature is
where I most want to be and feel most connected. A funny peculiar thing
with these events was that people said they were convinced it was me and
that my name was "Ruth" and they knew this because they spoke to 'me'. I
always used to laugh this off and say something like, "oh yeah, that's my
twin sister skiving off work again". I don't have a twin of course, but
it's spooky how different people came up to me with similar stories calling
me Ruth and saying how they saw me in nature whenever it was. Each time I
made a joke but then told them seriously that it wasn't me and my name
wasn't Ruth. Very strange.
Note from Cynthia: I love how
typically when people observed you in places other than where you knew for
sure you'd been at the time--they saw you out in nature somewhere. That
makes sense to me, since the times I've been observed bilocating have
corresponded to times I've been daydreaming, and I can easily imagine
daydreaming about being out in nature!
A Miraculous Journey Jo
Bournemouth, Dorset, UK
Some years ago, when I used to do onsite
massage work in the corporate world, I remember that on one particular
occasion, I had a very remarkable journey. That day, I had a contract to
work in a large office in Docklands, London. At the time, I lived in
Loughton, Essex. As I got ready to leave my flat that morning, I got out my
large A to Z map so I could plan the route. I was fairly relaxed about
this, since I thought to myself, “OK, this contract is in
Walthamstow, and I know that well enough, so finding this place should be
easy”. Well, of course, I got the location wrong! On checking
the venue’s address, I panicked as I realised it was a further
distance away than I thought, and in a very unfamiliar area for me. I
wondered how on earth I could arrive there on time. I was suddenly stressed
and embarrassed at the thought of letting down the other massage team
members as well as the event’s organiser. I also knew that if I
didn’t show up, I’d never get another contract with
this group again. Somehow I had to get there on time! There was no time to
call a taxi or even plan the route. So I made a decision, crazy though it
sounds, to just surrender, let go and hand over to
‘Spirit’. I trusted that a higher wisdom already knew
the way to this place and was perfectly capable of taking me there. I got
in my car, and without even looking at the map, I prayed to be taken to the
car park right by the offices I was to work in that day. I asked to be
taken there safely and with enough time to spare so I could set up my
massage table and get myself ready to see the full schedule of clients that
had already been booked in to see me for the day. I remember driving off in
the right direction and then praying with such an intensity and sense of
trust. I handed over. I drove. I went down streets and found myself in
areas I’d never been in before. One road in particular had a
very strange quality about it. It was narrow, very long, eerily quiet and
strangely devoid of other cars! I just kept driving and praying. After a
while, I had a feeling sense that my journey was coming to an end. Then I
somehow ‘knew’ I had to stop very soon, since I was
close to my destination. I looked around for a place to park. The area was
very busy with cars, but as I approached a roundabout, I noticed there was
a petrol station just by it. I decided to stop there, just to discover
where I was! I pulled over and parked. I went into the shop. I asked a man
by the counter if he knew where the venue was, showing him my paper with
the address written on it. He said, “it’s over
there”, as he pointed to a large building just the other side of
the roundabout. It was easily visible from where I was standing. He told me
I could also park there, right outside the building in the large car park
provided for employees there. I was astonished, but I don’t
think I let it show. I thanked him and quickly got back into the car. I
knew I had to keep focused as my journey wasn’t over yet. As I
pulled into the car park and parked in a slot just a few feet away from the
entrance, I noticed I was 20 minutes early! I went into reception, and had
my visitor pass organised. I got to the event room and set up my table. I
had time to get ready and then began work. The day went very well. When it
was time to go home, I had a long journey back. I was often stuck in
traffic and it all seemed like a busy, noisy and normal journey across
London- very different to the 'other worldly' one that I had had that
morning. To this day, I still have questions in my mind about how it was
even possible. The times didn’t fit- I should have been late.
The odd street I went down- I don’t think it was in
‘this world’. And I can’t prove a thing
and I’m careful who I tell this story to. But for me,
it’s an example of how anything is possible with Spirit, if I
can just get myself out of the way. My miraculous journey was dream like
but it was a specific event with many other people involved and not a dream
(as I understand it!) The most amazing thing for me is that I got there at
all and without a map or sat nav. Normally, I have no sense of direction
whatsoever. Thanks for your work, it's helping to keep me feeling sane!
Note from Cynthia: Wow, I adore how you describe this
experience! I love reading how you recognized a need to move your
consciousness to a state of surrender to higher levels of awareness, and
subsequently experienced an extraordinary, dream-like drive in which you
ended up arriving early enough with very little traffic or traffic-related
issues to contend with. I've had a similar experience once while walking in
downtown San Francisco, realizing I'd missed meeting my friends in time to
know which restaurant they were going to for lunch--but I surrendered to a
feeling of trust and love and higher consciousness, and let my feet walk me
to where they were. And remembering having done that is one of the high
points in my life.
Hey, I'm in a
really extremely tough situation for something I did that I really
shouldn't have done. I want to know how to change the past and change what
I did so I can remove this situation from my life. — Aaron
Dear Aaron, While we constantly change
our past, most of us are not consciously aware of doing so, nor do we
typically make radical changes to events we're emotionally entangled with.
The reason being is the emotional entanglement typically is part and parcel
of a quantum physics entanglement, meaning once we're reacting so strongly
on an emotional level to something, it's like a dog with a bone that just
won't drop that bone no matter what. So my best advice to you is to make
peace with yourself emotionally, moving toward a state of acceptance and
forgiveness of yourself, with an end goal of getting to a place of 100%
acceptance and forgiveness for yourself, at which point you'll be detached,
and can actually "drop the bone" of that unfortunate past. There are
significant spiritual advantages to attaining a state of relaxed, energized
detachment for its own sake, and that's really the best reason to meditate
and engage in spiritual practice--rather than trying to achieve a goal with
your spiritual practice. So start meditating, tell yourself, "I love and
forgive and accept myself, no matter what," and get started on this
spiritual journey. Whether or not you get proof that the past has changed,
you'll be making tremendously positive improvements that will benefit you
on every level in your life. lots of love, —
Cynthia

I’ve recently seen evidence of
reality shifts after watching your videos. Ironically a day or two
before I heard of you I had worked out the possibility that reality was as
you described between my interest in physics and recently found interest in
the law of attraction as taught by Abraham-Hicks. With all of this
awareness and vibrational evidence and positive things that have happened
I’m extremely excited. I have one serious concern. Is there a
space time boom when I shift into different realities. I’m
trying to be in a reality in which I’m successful and with my
soulmate. I don’t want any negative butterfly effect like
impacts from me shifting into that reality. Literally minutes after sending
you the last email in a video I was watching a man ask, “Am I in
a f**ing alternate universe?” While that’s humorous,
all the signs of me ending up in different universes are a bit startling.
How do you stay grounded in an ever changing world? When you’re
constantly shifting how can you tell which reality you’re from?
Better yet how can you tell which one you’re in? —
Brandon
Dear Brandon, The experience of
noticing reality shifts frequently is indeed quite startling at first, but
it is possible to become much more aware that this is the true nature of
reality, and that "I" am my consciousness--not any particular reality or
particular parallel universe. How we can "tell which one we are in" is thus
a matter of knowing that we're capable of being in all of them--yet the
"me" and "you" we truly are is not the physical reality in any of them, but
rather our consciousness. Such are the teachings of the perennial wisdom
traditions, and this new awareness also matches the new information we are
gleaning from quantum physics, as I describe in my book, Quantum Jumps: An Extraordinary Science
of Happiness and Prosperity. lots of love, —

Hi, I found your site about reality
shifting and was just wondering if you've ever heard of few people all
shifting realities. Into the same new one. Thanks, — Breona
Dear Breona, Yes, I've documented cases
in which several people have shared a reality shift experience--noticing
something has definitely changed in a big way. Some of these experiences
are documented in my book, Reality
Shifts: When Consciousness Changes the Physical World. With love
and thanks, — Cynthia

Hi Cynthia, I’ve just
read and enjoyed your book Quantum
Jumps. You mentioned meditating—what method or style of
meditation do you use? Warm Regards, — Peter
Dear Peter, I regularly practice several different
types of meditation, including one that's on my Aura Healing Meditations CD, walking
meditations, and meditations focused on breathing and clearing my mind. I
recently shared How
I Start My Day with a description of my current morning meditation for
the Times of India. lots of love, — Cynthia

Do the Clearing:
A Step-by-Step Guide to Living a Happy Life and Getting What You Want
by John Benz
How to clear
possessions, thoughts, and obstacles to your ideal life http://amzn.to/1L6Vzez
Therapist John Benz is no stranger to self-help programs,
having attended Weight Watchers meetings since age five. When Benz observed
a connection between emotions his clients felt related to their
possessions, and discovered that people who took steps to remove their
disempowering possessions made the most progress toward attaining their
goals, he took a closer look at the art of clearing. While the concept of
clearing is not entirely new--and feng shui practitioners have been
advising for years that we pay closer attention to the objects around us
and how they are arranged at work and at home--few people explain just how
powerful the process of clearing out disempowering items can truly be. The
concept of clearing is simple. Honestly assess how you feel and what comes
to mind when you systematically view each item in your home, and toss out
everything that doesn't contribute to feeling happy and good about
yourself. Benz appreciates that such a simple idea can sound almost crazy,
but points out that "if the memories associated with their possessions
reinforced that identity, that's exactly what they thought and what
ultimately became true." For those of us aware of recent research in fields
of embodied cognition and the placebo effect, it's not such a stretch to
recognize the immense and well-documented power of associating who we think
we are with what we are doing, and cues from our surroundings. How we feel
about our coffee table, bookshelves, clocks, vases, and dinnerware are
therefore tremendously influential in how well we stick to our diet, master
new skills, and achieve our dreams of living healthier, happier, more
prosperous lives. One of the things I like best about "Do the Clearing" is
the down-to-Earth way this book shares experiences people have had in
clearing rooms in their house, and immediately noticing obvious
improvements in their lives. My other favorite thing about this book is how
it emphasizes the importance of making the power question part of your
life, long after your first clearing is done. I love how Benz points out
that people become accustomed to feeling deflated, low-energy, and
uninspired, often without recognizing the contributing factors of how
everything in sight is energetically influencing them. Benz appreciates
that many people may initially think that clearing their possessions sounds
crazy. He then points out the importance of the power question--does the
item in question make you feel powerful? If yes, it stays. If no, it goes.
Benz explains, "If you are feeling powerless, swept along by the current,
then remember that possessions have power." He continues, "Use what's
around you to your advantage. Clear what isn't powerful, and create a
current that steers you toward the life you want." While the idea of
clearing is simple, and the seven steps straightforward and easy to do,
much of the value of this book comes from the wonderful pointers and tips
for overcoming potential pitfalls along the way of clearing out
possessions, and then clearing out residual thoughts. Some of these
potential pitfalls include involving other people in your clearing process,
as outside support can be tricky. You might feel tempted, for example, to
give things to neighbors, relatives or friends--yet this is mostly likely
not in your best interest. The idea here is to remove obstacles to feeling
powerless--not to see reminders of powerlessness from time to time. At this
point, you're likely wondering how well the ideas in this book actually
work for me. As is so often the case in my life, days before hearing about
this book, I'd synchronistically felt inspired to do what it prescribes.
I'd cleared out some items in my kitchen that had little to do with me, and
immediately noticed feeling an unexpected surge of positive energy. While
I've yet to do a complete clearing, I am now making the power question a
regular part of my life. I highly recommend "Do the Clearing" for
everyone!
