August 2010 Inspirational Message


Greetings!

Well what can I say? Are you tired yet from all the paperwork, repairs, renewals and the details in the practical areas of your life? Don’t worry, things will be slowing down soon, as Mercury Retrograde hits once again on August 20th - Sept 12th. Expect to hear from friends from the past and maybe get a little sentimental about the “old times”. Enjoy the nostalgia by tuning into your favorite oldies station, or for me that would be the 80’s channel! What can I say, it doesn’t get any better than 80’s films such as “Back To The Future” and “The Karate Kid”! As many times as Hollywood tried to bring these films back with a bang (with special effects), it just doesn’t compete with the simplicity of the original 80’s films.

Which brings me to my next topic: Simplicity. As you have seen from my announcement above, I have a passion for real estate, homes and all kinds of structures. Even though I am not a Feng Shui practitioner, I am amazed by how much our homes and the energy they bring have an effect on our lives.

When I bought my first home, I couldn’t believe the information that was given to me during my consultation. And it just so happens that the woman who was brought into my life (randomly — but of course you all know “random” is just the universe doing it’s work anonymously!) — is now one of our Certified Readers, Yona! She offers Feng Shui consultations for anyone buying a new home, selling and those who would like better energy living in their current homes. Plus now she offers intuitive readings at our events, so she is a great resource. Her website link is below!

My love of real estate combined with what I’ve learned about energy and how it affects us, is what finally led me to find out more about the real estate business. I thought this might be a great addition to what I already do, and may aid my current clients to a happy place full of great energy!

Mind you, I have been thinking about this for the last three years! Over the past month, I finally took the plunge, enrolled in classes, took tests, filled out paperwork, and most recently interviewed with many brokerage firms. During the class, several of these companies provide luncheons for recruiting purposes. Being a business owner, I found it fascinating how each company worked differently.

Since I have been doing this and posting about it on Facebook, I can’t believe how many of you are in the real estate business! Thanks for coming forward and offering me your insights!

There is not much out there about “choosing your brokerage” firm. Of course, I have to rely on my area of expertise: “my intuition”. Nevertheless I still got pretty confused because I don’t know the industry well. During my two week journey, I decided to meet with as many companies as possible. I’ve become so inspired by each manager, their belief systems and ethics about business. I even met with one manager who had a passion for technology greater than mine, which was awesome! We ended up talking about cool gadgets for a while. I met with some really great people, all who became successful in their own right through pursuing their passions in life.

Of course, being as curious as I am, I’m not one of those people who just chooses a company based on the quality of pizza at the luncheon. Although, food definitely is a way to my soul (mind you some companies had BAD food — so yes, I have to admit, they were out of the game for me). I thought maybe it would be nice to choose one based on the colors, just to see what would happen (just kidding!). So yes, being the extremist, I had to do it all! I met with as many as I could! So as I was thinking about what to write about during my August message, and this came to mind.

During one of my interviews, a manager gave me a copy of the book, “The Millionaire Real Estate Agent” By Gary Keller (founder of Keller Williams Realty). I love books and decided to read a little bit. I assumed it would be about the real estate business, but that was only the title.

Basically, it is a book about success, and how each one of us limits ourselves through our beliefs and doubts about our own achievements. He mentions how fears need to be dissolved in order for success to happen! Now I’m sure you loyal readers have heard me say that once or twice :)

He mentions how most people have a very limited idea of what they can achieve. Next, he outlines the statistics that indicate how those who are successful didn’t limit themselves in their aims for success. THEY ACTUALLY BELIEVE IT IS POSSIBLE. They don’t “hope”, they don’t “dream”, they just believe it to be true! He talks about a concept called your “Ceiling of Achievement” and how you will remain at that level unless you have a breakthrough. You may only go so far as your natural ability will take you.

He writes that the path to success and to fulfilling our dreams is simple, but we tend to think the formula is complex. So, most of us stay in our comfort zones and believe that aiming high is very risky and not a probability. So many of you just won’t try! If you are in business, or just want a little inspiration and don’t mind some real estate terms, it’s a definite read.

So now I ask you, what is your “ceiling” and how are you limiting yourself? Do you believe your dreams are possible? When someone asks you how much you would like to make in the next year, do you give a “reasonable number”? Once you give that number, once you speak it out loud, it will become what the universe provides for you. Why limit yourself? Do you do the same things with relationships? Do you settle for the draining friend who you just have to “deal with”? Do you settle for temporary happiness when you go on vacation? Or maybe some of you may believe you don’t even DESERVE a vacation.

Breakthroughs are not easy, but they can happen in an instant. Some people say that a breakdown is actually a breakthrough — it’s just our perception. Are you positive or negative?

Another great author on breaking out of lack and limitation is the late metaphysician, Florence Scovel Shinn (who was actually born in Camden NJ and went to school in Philadelphia!). Her teachings are very simple. Most of her books use bible quotes to reflect on the teachings.

However, if you are a different religion or just spiritual in nature, don’t let the bible quotes close the door to you reading this book. She outlines simple ways to manifest abundance in all areas of your life. Her teachings seem so simple that you almost don’t believe they work! Her concepts were very “forward thinking” for her time, especially living and teaching in the late 1800’s. I would recommend getting the complete collected works on amazon. You can get the entire collection on one book.

Florence Scovel Shinn (September 24, 1871, Camden, New Jersey - October 17, 1940) was an American artist and book illustrator who became a New Thought spiritual teacher and metaphysical writer in her middle years.[1][2] In New Thought circles, she is best known for her first book, The Game of Life and how to Play it (1925).

Shinn expressed her philosophy as:

The invisible forces are ever working for man who is always ‘pulling the strings’ himself, though he does not know it. Owing to the vibratory power of words, whatever man voices, he begins to attract.
The Game of Life, Florence Scovel Shinn[1]
Collected works: F.S. Shinn, The Wisdom of Florence Scovel Shinn: Four complete books, Fireside Books, New York, 1989.
My advice for August, get out of YOUR comfort zone, and try something you have always wanted to try. It will give you a sense of renewed energy and even increase your confidence. Sometimes, when we have too much energy to spare, and there is no passion or creativity attached, the mental energy becomes unbalanced and the racing thoughts begin. Boredom sets in and then drama or chaos is usually the next fix for the mind. If the mind is bored, it will take that exhilaration, even if it is negative because you are looking for stimulation.
However, the stimulation you get will not be long lasting. You may get this from your anger, hearing gossip, or being involved in negative thinking and obsessions. This blocks creativity and passion from your life. If you are living doing things you love, your experiences will always have an element of joy to them.

Also, you have to watch your energy flow. As a full time medium, I am always receiving energy. I’m giving out my energy all the time, listening and picking up on the energy of others. That can literally “drain the battery”. I have to find ways to replenish my energy and “feed the life force” energy or I will become unbalanced. How do you do that? Do the things you love!

If someone asked you right now, “What are you passionate about?” Would you be able to tell them? If not, you need to go on the journey to finding yourself, because maybe other things have prevented you from knowing who YOU truly are. And if you don’t know yourself, how can you share that joy with others?

Are you unhappy in life right now? If so, stop ruminating in your head! If you have no idea what you love to do, try something new and if you don’t like that, you are a step closer to knowing what you do like.

WHO ARE YOU?

I’m finding out a little about who I am every day. I’m really looking forward to learning more about the real estate business! I still have some more technical things to take care of before I become an active agent — but the journey thus far has been most interesting. I will keep you all up to date with an official announcement in the next few weeks about where I will be working and the details!

But don’t worry all my Connection Beyond fans! My work in the spiritual realm and my clients here are still my priority! I hope this will just be an added addition, and of course something fun for me. Stay tuned also to lot of exciting new happenings in the fall with Connection Beyond. I hope to see you at one of our upcoming events!

All my best for August!

July 2010 Inspirational Message By Medium Marisa Liza Pell

Saturday, July 3rd, 2010

Greetings!

Happy 4th Of July Weekend! Please have fun and be safe. For those of you on my Facebook Fanpage, you know that I have made some current posts about the universe conducting a very powerful “cleansing process”. That which no longer serves you (or does not serve your highest good) will gently fall away from your path.

Over the past several months, we encountered more severe energy shifts. We have also seen this reflected globally by earthquakes and skittish weather. Unexpected bursts have been happening in our atmosphere, but this month there are no “surprises”. Sometimes doors close on us unexpectedly (even abruptly) leaving us feeling adverse emotional effects.

During this personal “cleansing” in your life, this energetic shift will be as gentle as the summer breeze. But don’t be fooled, there are major shifts that will happen in your life, and many aspects that have been in your life for years may wash away like the tide. You will accept these changes without knowing how or why you were able to do it so easily. You will no longer feel stuck. How are you able to have this acceptance, whereas for so many years you have been fighting your own path?

Well the answer lies in something far beyond our Earthly comprehension. The universe is preparing us for many changes, all of which require us to be moving toward our spiritual purpose during this lifetime. All of you are required to be where you will best serve humanity, regardless of whether you want to or not. Most of these shifts will be POSITIVE in nature. Very positive in fact.

Any negativity you have encountered over the past year was due to you being aligned with those who are not serving your highest good. The universe is letting us know that there is no more time to waste our energy to contribute to lowering the vibration of the planet. The planet is going through a cleansing and renewal process, and as this happens on our earth, your life and state of mind will follow.

Like attracts like, and if you SHIFT, which you will — your vibration and frequency will change. This means that you will no longer “connect” with what you once connected to. It’s just that you are meant to live now in accordance to a divine plan — to engage in your SPECIFIC PURPOSE here. I believe that we all agreed to our Earth Contracts before we came here, and sometimes we get lost along the way.

The best way I could describe this to you is with this analogy. Let’s say you were in cast in a Broadway Show. You know your part, you receive a script, you memorize your lines and you rehearse. But when you’re out of the theatre after rehearsal, you encounter other life distractions. If there are problems at work or home, you might not prepare as well for the show, and that will reflect on your rehearsal. If things get too tense, you might even drop out. But let’s say you are under contract and you MUST PERFORM ON OPENING NIGHT. Other people in the play depend on you just as much as you depend on them.

The role you play is not as important as that you play your role well. We can’t all play the same role. What good is the play if there is no lighting or direction? You were cast in YOUR role with these other people because you all have a purpose to serve together, and YOU have an important part to play. They are depending on you to be as focused as them to make the show a success. No matter what the outside world brings (those distractions that do not serve you), YOU MUST AT SOME POINT “TAKE YOUR PLACES” and perform on opening night.

In life now, the universe has announced it is time “To Take Your Places”! You will automatically start to be shifted back to Life’s Theatre! If you miss your call time, the show must go on without you. The good news is that if you just “Go With The Flow”, you will be in alignment with your purpose. If you are in alignment, you don’t need to know the how’s or the why’s. You just need to look at the script and play the role to the best of your ability.

Think about your passions in life. What drives you? What gives you energy? What drains you? What makes your body feel tired? Pay attention to the way your body reacts and what fills your life force energy. Remain close to those people, situations and passions that align you with positive energy. The people and situations that fall away are not “bad”. So don’t think of yourself as better or worse. They are just vibrating at a different frequency and have different life lessons to learn.

If you have learned certain lessons, you are ready to take the next steps, and you will vibrate to what is meant for your highest good.

This is very interested and exciting energy!

Can’t wait to hear all your stories!

Best,

Marisa

June 2010 Inspirational Message From Marisa Liza Pell

June 2010 Inspirational Message From Marisa Pell

Greetings!
I was driving  thinking what I was going to write about today, and the topic of “inspiration” came to mind. What exactly is inspiration and why is it so important? One could say that inspiration is the universe giving us a little push to fulfill our purpose. In my career, inspiration can be looked at quite differently. What you think seems like a feeling of joy followed by an “inspirational” thought or idea, may actually be a loved one or spirit guide attempting to communicate with you!

Inspirations are also fleeting moments and then life comes back to reality again. It’s a bit difficult to hold onto that inspirational feeling for a long period of time, especially when work, kids, and other responsibilities come into play.  Herein lies the dilemma: Inspirations can truly inspire us. And that inspiration can be a fleeting thought or a euphoric feeling. What do we do when the inspiration wears off?

If you are running solely on that inspiration to make things happen, you may find yourself spinning your wheels. Action is the key ingredient to help yourself along to making that inspired dream a reality. Say you are having a difficult time, and you are looking for a way to uplift your spirits. You talk to a trusted friend and upon leaving you feel so much better. You feel a sense of relief. Someone else understands your plight and they may actually have some words of wisdom to turn on a light bulb inside of you. But what happens when that feeling of relief wears off and the bad feelings return? Or it just doesn’t seem that you can get your life together? You still have problems and that sense of peace that you are looking for was small compared to how you feel on a daily basis.

Real change is necessary to making your dreams a reality. Those feelings of low self worth, plummeting self esteem and restlessness are not going to go away by inspiration alone. Eventually, you will get back to what isn’t healed inside of you, and you will go through the cycle again. A euphoric week could turn into a depressive month. And then you may turn on yourself, asking yourself, “What am I doing wrong and why can’t I GET this?” “Why does the other shoe seem to drop?”

The answer lies in one corroding emotion: resentment. A resentful heart will not be able to fully love, accept or be at peace. Resentment keeps us in the dark. With underlying resentment comes all sorts of emotions such as anger, fear and bewilderment.

Another key ingredient is Compassion. Compassion is necessary to truly be able to form any intimate relationships - whether that be friendship, love or defending a cause. Compassion means having true empathy for another. Resentment is different, it revolves around the self — and usually fear comes deeply into play.

Within a resentful state, compassion is no longer accessible. Nor can your intuition be fully accessible to the universe so that you can be inspired.

To be truly at peace, healing of the heart is a first priority. Compassion is the bridge to that healing. How can you have compassion? Forgiveness is the key element, and mainly the forgiving of yourself and your own short comings.

However, character defects and fears will not erase themselves through self knowledge alone. No amount of “will power” will increase your self esteem. You can never really forge any true spiritual relationships without first being honest about your darkness. We are truly helped when we humbly ask both for universal help (from our guides, higher power, or those that have passed) and for Earthly help. We are supposed to grow spiritually by helping one another.

Never be afraid of your own darkness, because on the other side of it you are a great light. Some say those who are able to transcend great darkness will be able to offer others great wisdom. Do not be afraid that you are not perfect, because those imperfections can also be your greatest assets. True strength is accepting your weaknesses, not disguising them. Shout what’s not so pretty from the rooftops, so that someone else doesn’t feel so alone. Maybe none of us are really that unique. To be whole, to be integrated, to be wise, you must first accept yourself in your entirety. Allow others to see you as you really are. How can we really be true to ourselves and to others if we are only projecting only the side of us that we want others to see? That’s a lot of hard work.

In my field, I have to give guidance to people on a daily basis. I seek to offer spiritual insight and strength to my clients. Every month, I hope to provide a little bit of inspiration. However, I do not live my life in perfect spiritual alignment. In fact, some days are a struggle! There are days that I am full of fear, resentment and anger. There are days when I get stuck in a rut, and whine on the pity pot. There are days when life isn’t “treating me right”. I’m no different than anyone else. And I’m sure you don’t think any differently of me because I also have my bad days. Many years ago, I did not have the tools to deal with these feelings, and it caused me a great deal of distress. Today, I do know that I can ask for help, because without getting the help I need, I cannot help you. Show others who you really are, and maybe it will be the inspiration they need to change! Look in the mirror and embrace you!

You are a beautiful spirit of the universe and you are here to grow! I wish you a great June!

Best,

Marisa


A Birthday Gift From The Other Side: PART II

Thursday, May 27th, 2010

If you haven’t read PART I of “A Birthday Gift From The Other Side”, please do so first as it provides the basis for this amazing validation!

Click Here to Read Part I First Or Just Scroll Down To The Previous Post

If you have already read part one about the Roses sent from the other side on my mom’s birthday, awesome! Sometimes, even these amazing validations surprise me! After I wrote the blog, I didn’t expect that there would be anything more surprising news that day! However, the next day, I received another phone call from my mother.

She said, “You won’t believe this! At around 9PM, my brother called from NJ (my uncle) and asked me if I received the roses today! I didn’t receive any flowers from him, but did relay that I did receive flowers.” On the other end of the phone, my uncle calmly explained that the flowers weren’t supposed to be from him. My mother got very confused and asked him what he meant. What came next made me silent!

He said that he was in church that morning, and prayed to St. Therese to have someone send my mother flowers (roses) for her birthday! He had complete faith that this would happen, and knew nothing about my story. Once she told him what happened, he was amazed but not surprised!

She asked him what time this happened, “Between 8:30am and 9″ he said!

A Birthday Gift From The Other Side!

Tuesday, May 18th, 2010

So normally I don’t post unless it’s the monthly inspirational message, but this story is so incredible that even as a medium, I was completely shocked! So I thought I’d share…

Today is my mother’s birthday and I was planning to see her over the weekend. During that time I was going to give her a gift and I wasn’t planning on sending anything in the mail. However, I was woken up by a message early this morning (around 8:30am) that told me to buy her a dozen roses. I saw the image of the roses in my mind — and “knew” that this was her best friend who had passed a few years ago. She has come to me several times over the past few years, but with no urgent requests such as this.

Along with the image came the message to send her roses and to add her name on them. I was thinking, “Ok, this is going a little too far!” I didn’t feel sending my mom flowers with her best friend’s name on them who is deceased would be appropriate for her birthday. The last thing I would want would be my mother getting upset or sad on her birthday! Plus that would be a little strange.

I was fighting this message, but it was so clear. So then, she said, “Don’t put my actual name on it, write that they are from “Sophia”. Now this was getting even weirder. She wanted me to put a name on there that made absolutely no sense? I knew that my mom and her best friend had nicknames for each other back in high school, but I didn’t know what they were. They had been friends since there were very young.

So, reluctantly, I ordered the roses and wrote a card along with the message from “Sophia”. If, by chance, my mother got confused by this message, I could always come up with something! This protected me from saying they were from her friend on the other side. It just seemed too over the top, even for someone like me! I love roses, but am really not a fan of sending red ones. When I inquired if they had any additional colors, they told me there had rare green roses in the shop! I had never seen green roses, but the shop owner said they were absolutely gorgeous, so I said YES.

So about an hour ago, I called my mom to see if she received them. She had just gotten them as I called and was reading the card. She read the part about “Sophia” and said, “Who’s Sophia?” Ok, now I know I was just out of my mind and had to come up with something. But she just bypassed it and read the rest of the card without much to say. So now I had to know! I said, “Mom what did you and your best friend call each other growing up?” She stopped for a few moments, and had to spend some time recollecting. She said, “I remember we used to call each other by the names of two Italian ladies.” I said, “Was it Sophia?” And then there was silence. She gasped, “Yes! We were Angelina and Sophia”!

WHOA! This was NOT happening! I was woken up by a spirit submitting an order for flowers for my mom’s birthday? No way. But should I really be surprised? So I inquired further. She said, ” I can’t believe this. My friend gave me a doll for Christmas many years ago and as I was cleaning this morning I was praying to her telling her how special the doll was to me!”

I asked my mom what time that was, she said “Around 8:30 in the morning….”

Wow!

May 2010 Inspirational Message From Marisa Liza Pell

May 2010 Inspirational Message From Marisa Liza Pell


Greetings!

Congrats! You are through the majority of the major harsh energies from the past several months including misunderstandings, delays and worries. This is especially true concerning business partnerships and the workplace in general. The word “monkey wrench” comes to mind! Sometimes your carefully laid plans don’t work out no matter how hard you try to force them to happen.

And there is usually a reason for that! It’s either not the right time, or a different opportunity is meant to be in your life. Remember, what the universe has in store for you is usually better than ANYTHING you will dream up for yourself. Plus, the universe is not self-defeating and does not look to sabotage our lives!

Right now you are in the midst of some very clear and “clean” energy. It’s like going from a traffic jam in the city to a nice Sunday drive through the country side. But those of you who are used to the chaotic life will be quite weary during this time. You might ask, “Why am I feeling so calm”? “The other shoe must be dropping soon!” or better yet, “I’M BORED!!” Yes, this calm energy will make you feel a little bored, but with the racing mind a little on a the back burner, you are ripe with new possibilities for creative expression AND to put your affirmations to the universe on the table. What are your dreams? Now is the time to reaffirm them to the universe, because anything you put out now will act like a healthy seed that will begin to sprout great results!

Do not try to plan your “future” right now. There is a saying which makes me laugh every time but it’s so true, “If you want to make God laugh, plan your day!” Sometimes your carefully laid plans are really not the best for you! If you’re unhappy or most of your life has been difficult, maybe you should STOP planning — because the decisions you are making on your own probably aren’t working in the long run.

This is a time to trust others and have faith! Of all the challenges in the universe, FEAR is the largest culprit. It affects more of us than anything, and misread perceptions are the number one cause of us acting out towards our fellow human beings. What we perceive is usually our reality, but we usually fall short in getting the FACTS! Usually, instead of communicating our fears, we go into protection mode, and when we PERCEIVE a threat, we act on it. Whether that means pulling back from an important person, not being open with a loved one, or acting out through irrational emotions — the only person you will hurt is you.

How many of you have found out that what you believed in your head wasn’t true at all once you asked for the facts? Perhaps you held onto anger and resentment for years only to find out that you misinterpreted someone’s intentions. Being overly protective of yourself will only alienate people! However, this is not as easy as it sounds.

Back in the old days, people didn’t lock their doors!! Can you believe it? Yes, people actually trusted their neighbors and knew that in time of need they could rely on those in their community for help. In the era of TV and Media News, we hear the message of fear every day — PEOPLE ARE BAD! They want to rob from you, steal from you, sue you and so on. We don’t hear about people that are GOOD and who help other people.

Also, we are trained to take actions so we aren’t taken advantage of. We are told that if we scream at people we get results! The screeching wheel gets the oil. We need to put up fences to defend our property lines! Don’t stop to help someone in need, you might get hurt! We are being told to isolate ourselves more and more from our fellow human beings. The message in our minds is that at anytime someone could turn against us! So you better protect yourself! Doesn’t that sound silly? What happens to those people that do this? Yes, they end up alone and bitter at the world!

I could tell you personally that this is not the case when booking clients for my services. I give my appointment setters and administrative staff full reign over the business I take in. An overly aggressive client, a rude tone, or someone speaking to my staff in a disrespectful manner will not get an appointment.

Yes, it is true. I do not take every single client that wants to book an appointment if the energy is not right. I know that this will only drain my staff and myself, as WELL AS THE CLIENT. Knowing when something or someone is NOT RIGHT FOR YOU is the solution. Who wants an unhappy client? I have to know my limitations and what I can handle and what I can’t. I am not superwoman and cannot handle everyone’s energies. I tend to react and then I don’t give my best. However, I do have readers that I refer who are not affected by the same energies I am sensitive to! Knowing yourself is the first step to a peaceful life!! Knowing what WON’T work for you before you agree to something is the key!

The question for you is: Who are YOU saying YES to when you should be saying NO? In business are you dealing with people who aren’t right for you just for the money? Are you in a job that doesn’t treat you right because you are in fear of not finding another one? Are you helping so many people that you have no time for yourself? Do you live in guilt that others won’t like you if you don’t do things for them? Let me say for sure, it will never be enough!! Guilt is an endless treadmill! People pleasing doesn’t exist — because most of the people you are trying to please are never pleased to begin with!!!

So on this lovely weekend in May, get yourself off the couch and do something fun! Plan a trip– give yourself something to look forward to in life! Say NO today!! You don’t have to be rude — see how it feels! Just say, “I’m sorry I have other things planned today!” Give me a call during the week! More often than not, that person will find someone or something else in the upcoming day for relief and YOU WILL BE HAVING FUN!!

Have courage and take great risks!

All my best,

Marisa

April 2010 Inspirational Message From Marisa Liza Pell
* Plus A Special Message About Alignment and Manifestation!

Greetings!

Springtime is a time for new life! This is the best time to rise from the ashes of your old life — without any regrets.

At this point there should be no excuses about leaving the past behind — in all forms, especially old emotional wounds. Holding onto past pain, anger and resentment will only AFFECT YOU! By holding onto these toxic emotions, you are not harming the person who did you wrong in any way. Just you.

Emotions that are not released have a tendency to build up over time and can cause a myriad of emotional disorders, add to present addictive behaviors, and can manifest in the physical body in the form of diseases and chronic pain.

Holding on tight to these emotions because you feel JUSTIFIED will NOT SERVE YOU — and will not lead to justice. Some of you may even use the wrongs others have done to use as an EXCUSE to not be able to move forward in your career, love life, health, or to make the necessary changes that will lead to a better and more fulfilled life.

Happiness depends on you and you alone. There is no outside “fix” that will act as a magic wand to your happiness — no will any intuitive reading do the job. I have many clients who spend their hard earned money on a reading, only to want to hear that they can keep living their life in a destructive way and that there will still be a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Do yourself a favor and don’t waste your time or your money on any advice or self help if you are NOT WILLING TO CHANGE.

Change takes a lot of hard work, and yes there is pain and discomfort attached because you are taking actions against your natural patterns. But the small amount of discomfort is worth the years of happiness you will reap!

Let me talk for a minute about manifesting your desires. When you take a shower, do you stand in the back of the shower and hope that the tiny splashes of water will get you clean? Obviously not, because that would be absurd — right? When you take a shower, you stand directly under the flow of water! This same concept applies to manifesting your desires.

Manifestation of all your dreams and desires starts with ALIGNMENT. It doesn’t begin by begging or wishing things to happen, or having “hope”. Being in alignment with what you refer to as your higher power will be all that you need to move forward in abundance — whether that is financial, your love life, or your health.

When I mention higher power, I mean whatever you deem appropriate for your spiritual direction and growth. You may call your higher power God, Jesus, Buddha, or you may merely call your higher power the spirit of universal energy. Whatever you choose, it is important to be in daily alignment with that power, or YOU will start to lose power and start to exercise YOUR OWN WILL POWER in your daily situations and life decisions.

Once you take your own will back into your hands and start to make decisions based on WHAT YOU WANT, YOUR IMPULSES, YOUR IMPATIENCE, or ANY DESTRUCTIVE HABIT, you move away from the alignment, and you start to take the road that will lead to a lack of fulfillment. A good way to judge whether you are in alignment or not is by asking yourself some of these questions:

  • Are you in a state of constant anxiety and depression?
  • Do you feel a lack of joy in your lfe?
  • Do you feel that life is just a constant struggle to get by each day?
  • Do you have obsessive or racing thoughts?
  • Do you have fear of not getting what you want or losing something you have?
  • Do you try to control, manipulate, or change others?
  • Do you play angles to get what you want (i.e. trying every possible avenue to get what you want — for instance if being nice doesn’t work, do you try to be forceful instead?)
  • Do you see negative patterns emerging in your life?
  • Do you find yourself asking why life just isn’t treating you right?

If you answered yes to many of these questions, you are NOT IN ALIGNMENT.

Small steps you can take to begin alignment:

  • Stop trying to FORCE anything
  • Let go, surrender and release situations that are causing you struggle
  • If something isn’t working right, it’s probably not right
  • When in doubt, make the decision to not make a decision
  • Completely let go and have faith without taking ANY action for a certain period of time — the universe will provide clarity and insight.
  • Change you and others will follow, not the other way around
  • Focusing on change in others in a sorry excuse to not work on yourself
  • Exercise and eat right!
  • Be kind and help others without any expectation.

Thanks for reading! All my best!

March 2010 Inspirational Message From Marisa Pell

March 2010 Inspirational Message From Marisa Liza Pell
Greetings!

Ok my sensitive ones, have you been feeling like your world has just been turned upside down and you don’t know how to put all the pieces together?

Welcome to one of our major universal shifts, where the universe will shape you up (in a not so comfortable way), so that you can be put back together at your absolute best. The earth Herself is also shifting to accomodate for this major shift in consciousness. Think restructure, rebalance and renewal. You can see this reflected in the major Earthquakes that are now occurring. Right now, all I can say is hold on tight, because your ground will appear quite shaky — although when it’s all over, you will emerge much stronger — and having a sense of wholeness that you may also be surprised with!

This shift requires a partnership with the Earth in this process. She is shedding her skin to adopt a new form, and so will you. In the next few months, you will be at your absolute best. However, if you fight this shift, you will not benefit from the opportunities that will come of it.

Acceptance is the answer right now. Accept what is, and let the universe weave it’s mystery into your life. Get out of the driver’s seat and just sit back and let go of any control you may think you have over any situation in your life that may be troubling.

Think of yourself as a piece of clay. Perhaps you want to be molded into a beautiful piece of china. What is the process? The maker (our Higher Power) needs to remold the clay, sometimes pounding, sometimes pulling, and even heating the clay at very high temperatures — all to make the clay into a beautiful piece of porcelain. So be prepared for some bumps in the road and be willing to endure them. Stick it through, for only at that point will you emerge anew. Be willing to be uncomfortable and trust in the power of the universe to carry you during this time.

You are being pushed to be at your absolute best. There are many shifts coming for us as spiritual beings — and we need to be at our strongest!

This reminds me of the beautiful prayer of St. Francis.

A Hymn by St Francis of Assisi:

Make me a channel of your peace:
where there is hatred let me bring your Love,
where there is injury, your pardon, Lord,
and where there’s doubt, true faith in you:

O Master grant that I may never seek
so much to be consoled as to console;
to be understood as to understand,
to be Loved, as to Love with all my soul!
Make me a channel of your peace:
where there’s despair in life let me bring hope,
where there is darkness, only light,
and where there’s sadness, ever joy:

All my best!

February 2010 Blog on LOVE and WHAT IT ISN’T!

Tuesday, February 9th, 2010

Ok so let’s forget about the commercialization of Valentine’s Day. I myself have never been a big fan. In fact, it’s a little cheesy. BUT, I am a big fan of meeting the right person and falling in love. I have been overwhelmed lately with a shift that I am not only feeling, but I believe this vast “bubble of romance” will be affecting everyone very soon.

You will see a lot of celebrity couples “REUNITING”. Will we see a re-igniting of the flame between Jen and Brad? Why is the media so obsessed with this couple? I believe it is because they have some unfinished business, and that some tough lessons need to be learned. The marriage broke up before they had a chance to have their “breakthrough”. I heard this a while ago, and the phrase always stuck with me….

“It’s not a BREAKDOWN, it’s a BREAKTHROUGH”

Sadly most couples don’t get tough when the tough gets going. We are addicted to the instant gratification that our fast paced lives have to offer. Unfortunately, these intense bouts of chemical lightening storms usually amount to nothing but ashes. We want that passionate type of love that everyone yearns for. Some say that this type of love is no more real than Santa Claus (and I still don’t doubt good ol’ St. Nick’s existence!).

Ok, I’m going to say it! I truly believe the fairytale still exists, but not without human error and defect. In my case, I’ve been through a lot of what it isn’t. What I thought was once love was nothing more than a dopamine surge that ended up feeling like hitting the dry concrete from a two story building. The quest for that feeling again became so paramount that I would do anything just to feel it again. Sounds a little addict like, doesn’t it?

To me, True love is not a lightning storm, it’s the flame from one small lighter in a dark stadium.

From an intuitive point of view, I’ve been seeing clients for close to 15 years and the topic of love comes up rather frequently. I see the same patterns time and time again. Simply put, a crash follows the high. Some people just like the drama and need a thunderous sea. Calm waters make them restless. I once heard a woman at an event say that her relationship was so normal and boring, that it was making her insane — she started balling crying (I just looked at her like a deer in the headlights) LOL. I don’t believe we are meant to live in a lifeless, boring state within a meaningful blossoming relationship. But two people must be willing to grow spiritually and together. Hence the phrase “we’ve grown apart”.

Growing together means having some growing pains! Not everything is comfortable. As much as I want to run in a field of flowers and hearts everyday, it’s not realistic while learning our life lessons and for true growth of a partnership. I usually only blog on my monthly inspirational message. But I had some free time today, and have been pondering this issue.

Probably because we have the launch of our new dating event, Intuidate, on Friday. I am hoping to shed some light on an intuitive solution in the dating world. It’s really not about dating per se. It’s more about using your innate intuitive skills to align yourself with your destined path. Once you are aligned and “on track”, you will be on your way to finding true love.

Hope you enjoyed my little tangent. There IS a shift going on, so make the best of it. You will find yourself more open, passionate and ready than ever before to finally give it your all in the arena of love. Don’t give up on love just yet, the right person hasn’t given up on you.

February 2010 Inspirational Message From Marisa Liza Pell

Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010


Greetings!

Have you been feeling like you really want to RELAX? If so, that’s a great way to feel, because you will FINALLY have some moments to do so. If you have encountered the lightening speeds in January, you know how fast paced the last month has been (and how tough it was to KEEP UP with it)!

Don’t get too spoiled though :) This first week of February will slow down for you enough to balance yourself and then you’ll be off to the races again starting on February 14th. Pat attention to your speeds on the roadways and make sure you are not too distracted!

Take this first week to be kind to yourself. You will be feeling a very nice energy moving through you right now — take a bubble bath, heat up some tea, read your favorite magazine and kick up your heels (with slippers and your chocolate BON BONS of course).

If you are like me, you don’t like to sit still, or better yet you feel a little guilty for taking some time to yourself. I enjoy being productive (sometimes to a fault), but it’s best right now to go with the flow and unwind. Balance is necessary to your overall health especially in the upcoming weeks of movement. Don’t push yourself too hard, or find things to do just to “busy” yourself. It’s really important right now to meet your essential requirements: sleep, alone time, and good meals — and of course I would suggest some good gossip magazines for the ladies! I always get a laugh with those. Enjoy the energy this week — be in the moment.

All my best,

Marisa

What’s In Store For 2010? New Year Inspirational Message From Medium Marisa Liza Pell

Wednesday, January 6th, 2010


Greetings:
Finally we have entered a new year — a year that is definitely going to take over! I have no doubt in my mind that even as we are in a mercury retrograde period, you will still be able to feel the fast paced energy around you. This is not consistent with a retrograde, but because we are in the Chinese Year of The Tiger (Coming out of The Year Of The Pig), that sluggish energy will now be so fast paced, you may find it difficult to keep up!

For those of you who like to relax and have your nights at home — you may have a tough year! The energies are so fast that they will also be influencing your thoughts, dreams and aspirations. Better get on them, or they will start to get on you! It will be very hard to relax especially during the first three months of 2010. Sorry lazy couch potatoes — you either have to ride the wave this year, or you may find yourselves in a tizzy. The energies will affect you whether you like it or not.

Even those of you who are constantly “on the go” and pride yourselves on a fast paced lifestyle — it may be hard to keep up. 2010 is like that personal trainer that you can never keep up with, but keeps pushing you to be your best! And, there is no doubt in my mind, sticking with it with shower great rewards and accomplishments this year.

2010 will be a year of some monumental medical research finally revealing a cure after twenty plus years of research. We will see some great feats of heroism and talent this year Let’s see what this season of AI brings :) This will also be a year of competition. Better be your best at work, because companies will be looking for shining stars. You will not be able to coast in your jobs this year. Companies will be revamping their departments and hiring styles to shine. Everyone wants to be the best this year! And those with stamina of the tiger will win out!

Sitting home mulling with a “poor me” attitude will not even win the patience of friends and family. They will be too busy working towards their best! This is a year of no excuses. If you want to whine that you want love in your life, but you just want to stay home and eat bon bons, then you’re SOL. And noone will feel bad for you.

Because see, this is the year where GREAT LOVE can happen for you — the knight in shining armor is out there (if you want a tiger personality even better!). Although, men, if you are single be sure you can handle a tiger woman! These women know what they want and are planning to get it, so if you like an independent woman, there will be a lot of opportunities to meet them — but don’t throw water on their fire or you will be singed. Same sex relationships may be a bit tense this year, because of the energies of male/male & female/female being so powerful. One partner may get an opportunity of a lifetime, with a geographical move attached. Big decisions are needed here!

My best advice for those who will get overwhelmed is do the best you can. The energies will make it hard for you to succumb to illness — just stay away from negativity as many of you may use it as an excuse. Remember, be as the tiger, proud, strong, tenacious, and GRACEFUL. Take in the energy and work with it as best you can. You will have great accomplishments this year and a very interesting ride.

Happy 2010!

December 2009 Inspirational Message From Marisa Pell

Wednesday, December 2nd, 2009


Greetings:

What a great way to start off the holiday season — with a lot of downtime to browse your favorite stores! Luckily, this holiday season will not be as hectic as usual. The energies are slowing down for a Mercury Retrograde the day after Christmas. Normally a retrograde falling during a busy work period is not profitable, but over the holidays, the energy slow down is a welcome event!

If you are looking to concentrate on work and business this month, you may want to lower your expectations. Don’t worry, the start of the year will be packed with movement and exciting news. Enjoy this slow period. Giving or donating time, money and gifts during this holiday season may seem counterproductive due to the tough economic times, however it is imperative that you do so! The more freely you give during this time, the more opportunities you will receive in the new year. This is a time when giving is of the utmost importance. Non profit organizations and especially animal shelters are seeing close to a 30% decline in donations.

Think about giving in energetic terms. Giving and receiving need to be in balance. If you are ONLY GIVING, it is just as depleting to your abundance, health, and especially your finances. Saying NO is important over this holiday season, because even though the energy is slow, you will find yourself to be uncharacteristically tired. GET CREATIVE! If you can’t spend a lot of money, create something - creating keeps you in a flow and automatically charges your life force energy!

Give a gift to someone who is not expecting one. AND MAKE SURE YOU RECEIVE graciously and without needing to balance it out in return. Allow yourself the joy of giving without expectation. If money is an issue, donate your time over the holiday season. Many local animal shelters are overpopulated and the dogs really appreciate walks! Plus spending time with an animal during a stressful time can really GIVE BACK TO YOU!

Fear, lack and worry DO NOT make our lives more abundant — and when this goes to the extreme, you may find that obsessively saving is not creating abundance either. Take one step toward freely giving of your heart in any way you can. Opening yourself up to this will bring you not only joy, but a feeling of wanting to give more! Try to ask yourself this holiday season — are you giving out of obligation or because it’s within you?

This month is a time to reevaluate your life in its entirety. Get rid of EVERYTHING that no longer serves you. Holding on to anything will only hold you back. This year is a year of change, but only the drastic leaps will be immediately recognized by the universe. Maybe you’ve cleaned your home, but did you rid yourself of all your emotional clutter? Holding on to the past will only hurt you! Most of the people that we are angry at no longer think of us at all. You are not getting anyone back by holding grudges or “they should haves”. The truth is that in a lot of times in our life, our expectations haven’t been met. But this doesn’t mean that it’s not possible now. Focusing on “what hasn’t been” will only take you away from “what is now” and the ultimate possibilities of what could be.

If you could do anything for yourself, try forgiving someone right now. Who is the first person that comes to mind? Whether you like it or not, this is the person you have to forgive. Forgiveness does not mean calling them up, or even speaking to them. This is solely for your own peace of mind.

You don’t have to forgive the actions, but you do have to wish well for them in your heart. Tell the universe that you wish all the blessings for them that you would want for yourself, and ask the universe in return to change you. Reflect  on this person. Were your expectations not met? Did they not give you something you wanted? Did they take something away from you that you had? If the answer is yes, then your feelings are coming from a place of self-centeredness.

Sometimes, we place unrealistic expectations on others that cannot possibly be met. Say this mantra for ten days and watch what happens! Anything is possible. Finally write down one aspect of your life you are grateful for every day. You will see that you have far more now to be grateful for!

All my best to you and your family this holiday season!

November Inspirational Message From Marisa Pell

November 2009 Inspirational Message From Marisa Pell

Greetings:

You may feel a little sluggish all month — trying to push yourself to get your work done and feeling that you have absolutely NO ENERGY to do it. Think of your high school homework to get you in the mood. Remember how you would do everything BUT what you needed to do to avoid doing your homework or studying for that exam? Think of how it relates today!

And think about how it got done. Whether it was the night before, or a 10 minute cram on the due date, one thing is for sure. You had to just get yourself to SIT DOWN AND START. That is the hardest part.

So think about how you are beating around the bush this month and be honest with yourself about what it is that YOU have to just SIT DOWN AND START (or finish). I know for me — the one thing I put off is cleaning and organizing. However, if there is something else I really want to avoid doing, you can bet money you will find me CLEANING to avoid having to get the other work done! Can you relate?

The hardest part is just SITTING DOWN AND BEGINNING. The rest will flow. Most likely this relates to personal goals surrounding you this month.

Now onto career. I received a question from a client on Facebook about needing some insight about getting work in today’s economy and I promised to incorporate this into this month’s inspirational message.

Sometimes, energetically, we place our fate into other people’s hands. The belief is that our abundance is “out of our control” and that other people need to provide us with the opportunities to make our dreams happen — or else we are s%^& out of luck.

This is an illusion that gives all of your power away — and sometimes gives you an excuse to be lazy. Is laziness a character defect? Yes, in some instances. However, some of you may not make the effort because you are afraid of success! Yes, I know it sounds absurd. Some don’t believe they DESERVE happiness, and are more comfortable when times are tough. Where do you fit in?

Also, you may become afraid of actually being uncomfortable because something is AN EFFORT. We are used to instant gratification. Everything in our world is fast. If we want FAST FOOD, we go through a drive thru. How quick are we to get tempered when we have to wait a few minutes for the drive thru attendant to ask for our order? As a culture, we don’t like to WAIT for much. Why should we? We have most of what we want at our fingertips — look at technology today.

The question becomes: How much are you in control anyway? If you are in line with the universe, amazing things can happen. If your will (what you WANT for yourself) is stronger, you can definitely make a mess of the opportunities that are meant for you.

Think about this: Could it be possible that the universe has things in store for you that are much BETTER than you could think of yourself? Reflect on all the things that you thought were “BAD” that happened in your life, and now look back on all the GREAT events that happened as a result of that door closing. Would you have people or a job in your life now if a door didn’t close at some point?

Sometimes if you don’t listen to the gentle urges of the universe to end something, it is ended for you. It no longer serves you. Don’t leave cat claws on the wall trying to hold on to it!!

Also, why wait for others to give you the “break” you need? Every business has been created from an inspired IDEA.

Some questions to ask yourself:

  • What is your idea?
  • Do you have something new and inventive to share with the world?
  • What are some creative ways for you to make some money while you are waiting for a company to hire you?
  • What did you want to do when you were a kid?
  • What tasks bring you positive energy?
  • If you could make a full time living doing one thing, what would it be?
  • Is this something you have the ability to create?
  • Are you anxiously waiting for SOMEONE ELSE to do it for you?
  • What are you procrastinating about?
  • Make a goal list for yourself for the next 6 months (written not typed).
  • If looking to get hired: think of creative ways to get employer’s attention. Don’t rely on e-mail submissions.
  • Find out the weaknesses in the company and propose a plan to meet their needs
  • EXTRA EFFORT IS REQUIRED!!!


Perhaps you have answered these questions, and now are asking. Ok, then what do I have to do? Don’t get overwhelmed! Take one small step in your desired direction. Maybe do a little online research or check out a book on the topic. Anything will help you to move forward and put the intention out there.

Worrying will do nothing.

All my best!!

October Inspirational Message From Marisa Pell

Friday, October 9th, 2009

October 2009 Inspirational Message From Marisa Pell

Greetings:

Wow do we have some energies coming in! In the past few weeks, the frustration mounted because nothing seemed to be moving forward. Now, the energy is moving at lightening speed and you may feel overwhelmed with everything that’s coming your way! That’s a good thing!

This is the BEST month for new opportunities — but don’t just keep your eye on one prize. This will keep you tunnel visioned to be limited in what you receive this month. It’s like the universe is throwing money out of the sky (not real money — symbolic abundance!) Gather as many opportunities as you can, because you are truly LIMITLESS. This is a month of magic in terms of the amount of abundant opportunities you could receive.

However, don’t get caught in the whirlwind and let the opportunities swirl around you without taking them!! Those who are too analytical will watch as other seem to prosper and they are sitting there dazed up at the sky wondering why good things aren’t coming to them. Why you ask? Because the opportunities aren’t necessarily what YOU HAVE IN MIND!

You may see opportunities hit, but because you want things a certain way you may bypass them because they aren’t exactly what you had planned. You might rationalize that you are going to pass them up and wait for the perfect opportunity! In this case, you will be played the fool. Sometimes, the universe is sending us in a much better direction. This direction may be light years better than anything we have envisioned for ourselves! Do not underestimate the mysteries of the universe. If you just FLOW, you may see that you are headed exactly in the direction of your dreams and visions.

Taking your will into your own hands this month will not lead you to your most promising goals. If you agree to get on the roller coaster, just go for the ride. If something is presented to you, do it. If a person comes in to your life, give them a chance. If you are sick, and someone presents you with alternative information, TAKE IT! DO NOT QUESTION IT!

This doesn’t mean it will be the right fit for you, but it may lead you in a miraculous new direction. What do you have to lose? Think about a lantern lighting your way in complete darkness. You don’t see the end point. But you do see each step along the way. KNOW THAT YOU DON’T KNOW, and leave how you want things to happen out of your head.

Of course, you can always wait for what you want, but magic doesn’t happen that way — and life can become quite boring. This is also a

month to tell others of your dreams and desires and watch how they help you bring them to light!

This is no time to “figure it out” or ruminate of your lack of abundance. Just take action, and great things will follow — just not what you expected :)

All my best!!

Marisa

September 2009 Inspirational Message From Marisa Pell

Tuesday, September 8th, 2009

Greetings!

Ok, so I don’t want any of you freaking out just yet. If you feel like you have been spinning in circles over the past week, you’re not alone. Yes, you may have guessed it. We are currently in another mercury retrograde period! If you are unaware of this astrological aspect, just google it, and you will see how you can maximize your time during the next three weeks.

First, let me just say that the worst is over. The past week has been brutal, both with misunderstandings, negotiations and plain communication. It would have been best to just shut your phone, computer and tv off — and said goodbye to the outside world for a few days. But, sometimes in life that isn’t possible. Work, school, and children still need our attention.

So here’s the good news! We are in a little “gold mine” over the next few days before another slow down hits. This is a great time to promote your products, services or to plainly shine in your endeavours! Don’t waste time right now, as the retrograde will start to dip into a slow period later on this week. Make your phone calls, finalize your schedule and get any busy work taken care of as you will be very productive until Thursday of this week. Over the next few days, beware of “putting things off” as it may kick you in the butt later in the month.

Writing in all forms will be beneficial during this retrograde. Pay attention to your inner process whether that be writing for fun, getting things off your chest in a journal, or putting together ideas for publication. If I could give you one adamant “suggestion” — get things in order!! October will come sooner than you think, and you will be too bust to play catch up. Don’t let small things hold you back. Organization is the name of the game, and believe me I have to take my own advice. I tend to know exacly where things are in my mess! But this is not a time to stick to old routines when it comes to being prepared for a big leap around the Halloween season. So, ladies and gents…GET YOUR DUCKS IN A ROW! You’ll be happy you had the heads up.

Now, as far as romance goes, this is a very gentle time in that arena. You may find comfort and solace within the whirlwind with your significant other this month. If you are single, it may be profitable to “mend your fences” and make amends with the past. Those you have hurt will be more receptive to you this month. Remember, being prepared isn’t just about organizing your papers. This applies to your love life too! Be prepared for BIG LEAPS. Some of you may hear of proposals in the fall, or a big move by couples who are in long distance relationships. Be prepared if you are the procrastinator for your significant other to make a BOLD MOVE before you think you’re ready to commit. Go with it! You will regret it if you don’t, because your partner is indeed set on his/her decision.

This month requires you to get out of your head and into serious action. Things around you may slow down, but take it as a ‘hint’ from the universe to get yourself together. The time is being freed for you to make your preparations. You may also see a lot of international travel in the fall. Take the leap when it is presented or you will be left behind in the dust — while others around you will indeed be celebrating!

Over the next few weeks get together with old friends and have some fun. The fall season is sure to be one of mysteries that will lead to your “pot of gold” :)

Have faith!

All my best,

Marisa

August 2009 Inspirational Message From Marisa Pell

August 2009 Inspirational Message From Marisa Pell

Greetings!

Now is your time to shine! There are no more excuses. I know many of you have been wanting to follow your dreams for quite some time, and just never really got off your butt to take a chance. Best to stop “Talking the talk” if you’re not going to “walk the walk”! Seems simple but the most difficult challenge is facing and overcoming your own blocks.

I’ve heard every excuse in the book. Here are a few. Does this sound like you?
* The kids have so much going on! I just don’t have any time for myself.
* I’m so busy with work. Once I get home, I’m too tired.
* There are only so many hours during the day!
* I’ll get started once things slow down.
* I have no energy to do anything.
* I just can’t take many risks with a home, spouse, kids and pets to take care of.
* I just don’t have time. Period.
* I have responsibilities to my elderly parents.
* I feel guilty doing something for myself. Too many people need me.
* If I’m going to do it, I need to devote myself 100%, and I just can’t right now.
* Once my health improves, I’ll get on it.
* My spouse, parent, significant other doesn’t approve.
* I’m not qualified to do anything like that.
* I need more training, schooling, guidance, or certificates to really do what I want.
* It’s too much money.
* I work multiple jobs and have a family. I can’t afford to spend the time on luxuries.

If a number of these excuses sound familiar, YOU are the one holding yourself back from a joyous life. If you have the time to surf the Internet, collect eggs on Facebook, or worry excessively about things you have no control over — then I hate to break the news to you, but there are NO EXCUSES for not having the time to do the things to love, or to finally go after your childhood dreams!

If you don’t want to take a big risk, take some smaller ones. Make a list of all the things you would like to do in the next 6 months, and make your mind up to at least put your best foot forward on three of those items. What do you have to lose?

Once you take the action, leave it up to the universe to decide what doors to open for you. Remember, it’s not about what YOU WANT, it’s about what is meant for you. Meet the universe half way, and don’t settle for anything less than what makes you happy.

Are you happy right now as you read this sentence? If the answer is no, then what are you planning to do about it? It’s YOUR life, so LIVE IT. No one has a claim on it unless you allow them. One thing is for sure. You do not want to wake up twenty years from now with regrets.

A golden window of opportunity is there. The bigger the risk you take right now, the better the reward!

If you decide to move forward with your dreams, write me with your success story! I will post it on my blog to inspire others to take a chance.

There’s absolutely no reason to be miserable. See the miracle in each day :)

All my best!

July Inspirational Message From Marisa Pell

Monday, July 6th, 2009

July Inspirational Message From Marisa Pell

Greetings!

There is no time to waste this month. It’s time to get down to business, and start moving forward. Starting over the fourth of July holiday weekend, a very powerful energy vortex opened up.

This vortex is VERY POSITIVE and supports all those in the creative fields. If you are currently attached to a creative project or work in the arts, this will be a very successful month for you. The energy of the past few months has been very turbulent and stale. Now that we have new energy flowing in, nothing can stop you!

Go back to all those projects which you haven’t completed and take a fresh look at them. Once we hit mid August, things will shift again to a slight halt, so get everything completed now. The window may be small, but the opening is vast, so much can be accomplished.

Creativity does not have to come in the form of being an actual artist! If you are in business, creativity may come in the form of taking a new risk with a promotion or product. You may feel the urge to move furniture around, repaint, or buy some unique artwork for your home. If you are looking the refresh the home, now is a great time to get rid of clutter. A summer yard sale would be very lucrative!

This is a month of skin problems and burns, so be very careful even if you are not in the sun. Watch yourself while gardening, or grilling, as there is a very careless energy in place this month. This energy will make you less cautious, but more prone to minor injury. If you are doing any home renovations, (i.e. getting on ladders, going on your roof, or doing any handy work), take extra precaution — especially with the ankles, feet and Achilles tendons. If you play tennis or run, make sure you are cautious if you have a weak ankle or foot.

Water sports are ok, but be aware of waterparks, wave pools and waterslides. Because of the energy of minor cuts and mass population, be careful of infections, as open wounds or small cuts on the feet by the general public can generate infection. Wear flip flops or water shoes when attending theme parks on very hot days. You’ll be more in luck on warmer overcast days.

All in all, this is a very good month for business (even though it might be slow — great consumer interaction), health, and definitely romance!! A day trip or picnic with your loved one or friend will make you very happy!

All my best!

Intuition Exposition 2009 A HUGE SUCCESS!

Friday, July 3rd, 2009

Thank you to all who participated in our First Annual Intuition Exposition 2009! We will definitely be doing smaller events with all of our readers throughout the year as well as another expo next year!

This show, we had six graduates and two alumni. All of our readers conducted private sessions during the day fair, and four of them presented in the evening show. I am proud to say that our three apprentice readers, Rich Braconi, Alex Abrahantes and Kristine McAdams has successfully made a wonderful introduction as a launch for their professional careers.

Congratulations to our 2009 Graduating class: Gerri Willever, Debbie Carey, Alexandria Matthews, Alex Abrahantes, Sharon Moore, and Norm Dobo!

Our guests had a blast and our vendors are looking forward to being a part of our next event. Thank you to all of our afternoon presenters and to SJPR for a flawless presentation with both audio and visual footage of their investigations!

June 2009 Inspirational Message From Marisa Pell

Sunday, June 7th, 2009

Greetings!

So are you pretty much at your wit’s end? If so, you’re not alone. Communication and problem solving, especially at work this month, has taken it’s toll for many due to the erratic energies of Mercury Retrograde. It’s over! However, there is a week period where the energies need to stabilize, so I wouldn’t do anything risky right now if I were you.

This month was probably so draining for you that it may be time to ‘hand in the towel’ so to speak. Stop fighting and take a break. It’s time for a vacation or to at least take a day off from work. The energies are calming down now, so peace should be sought if you made a ‘mess’ this month!

You probably felt a little out of control in the past few weeks and have not even recognized yourself as you flew off the handle or said things that usually “weren’t you”. The good news is that you’re not crazy! Those things that no longer serve you need to be cast out! Make some decisions for change and go with it.

This past month has also been a very fear based month. Fears seemed to surface in the areas of finance and romance! These fears have been with you for many years and now is the time to let go and move on. This ‘unearthing’ was also seen literally during the earthquake in CA.

So moving forward, stop the self pity!! It’s not serving you. If you are reading this and you have been feeling sorry for yourself, this is a message for you to cut it out! The universe doesn’t respond to whiners.

Realize that you have the power to make choices in your life for the better and stop blaming others for your life circumstances. A question to ask yourself: Did you have a part in your life choices? Are you pleasing others rather than taking care of yourself? If so, who is the finger pointing toward? Yes, that’s right, YOU!

Have some GRATITUDE for your life already! It’s really not that bad. And if you want to change, then face the music, be uncomfortable and do it. Stop procrastinating and make some decisions. Take your innate power and wisdom back, and assume responsibility for your happiness and your life. If you start making decisions to make yourself happier, then those around you will benefit.

Some of you are addicted to drama and chaos and will find something wrong no matter what. Great things are around you but you can’t see them. If you are a drama king or queen (you know who you are!), then use that your advantage and create some new exciting opportunities for yourself in a positive way. Go on an impromptu trip, scream on a thrill ride, or try an extreme sport. Create some positive drama!

Now, after all that, relax!!! Take some time out for yourself over the next two weeks until this energy stabilizes and get out of your own way. Do the things that make you happy, and turn your phone off! Take a break from television, especially current news. Spend some time at a pool or around water to clear negative energies. You really need to replenish right now!

All my best!

Marisa
