Today, Thursday November 8, 2007, is a clean slate for me to enjoy. As long as I can CHOOSE my thoughts, I can CHOOSE what I attract and create in my life. Starting today, my ongoing intention is to find efficient and playful ways to attract massive financial wealth into my life so I can focus all my energies on my Divine life mission...

Okay.. I've got 5 minutes for my 15 minute miracle, so here goes!

Today, Friday November 9, 2007, is clean slate for me to enjoy. As long as I can CHOOSE my thoughts, I can CHOOSE what I attract and create in my life. Starting today, it is my ongoing intention to make more time for hiking, hooping, dancing and all activties which will bring more resilance, strength and fitness to my body!

I truely appreciate my husband's hot body because his sexy muscles and hard body feel amazing. I am so grateful for the sun being out today because it will be warmer and more cheerful. I am so glad that I feel happier today than yesterday because I know that the day will flow more smoothly. I am psyched that I got some business opportunities which will bring some more abundance to HoopGirl, Inc, because that will allow me to focus on creative projects. Thank you!

I love it when I feel optimistic. When I feel this way, I smile and look on the bright side of things, which makes it easier for me to relax and take it easy.

I now own a spacious, sunny house in Fairfax, California on a tree-lined street with a big yard, a redwood tree and delightful hiking trails in walking distance.

I now also own a spacious, sunny and comfortable condo with a large porch in Maui on the beach which nurtures me at a deep soul level.

I am in the best physical shape of my life!

I take pleasure trips all over the world to exotic spiritual desitinations which inspire me deeply!

I enjoy lots of free time in my life to do anything I want.

I now invite assistance from the Loving Power that dwells within me and in All Life Everywhere. Dear Luminous Energy Matrix of Life, and ALL who walk with me in Love and Light, Thank you for your perfect guidance, unconditional love, and ongoing support.

I've been visualizing a bright white light saturating the water of our dear San Francisco Bay, which was doused with 58,000 gallons of toxic used motor oil from the ship which hit the bridge last week. It is all rather surreal, actually. I think about it daily, and honestly I wonder why people aren't crying about it or even talking about it much. I mean, I would think there would be a huge emergency call for beach volunteers, emergency fundraisers, prayer circles, and more... but all I see are alarmist newpaper headlines and in conversations amongst people, business as usual... not one word...

For whatever reason, I have never been able to get into the series of books channelled by Lee Carroll about Kryon... until this past week! It was my meeting with Vera last week, when she mentioned she read and enjoyed, "The Journey Home", which opened me up to trying again. This book is not written as all the others are (Each of the eleven other volumes are a collection of essays - each a channeled sessions held in various cities around the world). This book reads like an actual fictional story .. a parable. So I went back to the Open Secret Bookstore in San Rafael this past weekend and got it, along with two other volumes of the direct channels which *finally* spoke to me, and I have been absorbing it all, like a thirsty person who has stumbled upon water after a long time of wanting it...

Yesterday I attended a fabulous all day workshop with psychic Sonia Choquette... synchronicity started when my mom and I couldn't manage to buy out $150 tickets at a discount online and were told to just go there in person. We arrived at the fabulous Westin St. Francis in Union square, with golden angels hovering above us all across the ceiling in gorgeous art... as I started to tell them about diffficulty buying tickets, Melinda (the woman at will call) interrupted me, saying, "Christabel! I took your hula hoop classes a long time ago... take these! I happen to have two free passes for you here." Mom and I looked at eachother and smiled. We felt so blessed! Magic! We went in giddy...

Last night I had an amazing dream. I was in Hawaii and I was in SO happy!! I felt as if I was in the most absoluetly perfect place at the absoluetly most perfect time. It was lush and sunny and beautiful. I was standing by a massive lagoon and suddenly I heard this deep rumbling which was growing louder and lounder, like a groaning vibration. I heard a noise and turned to my right and saw a massive whale sliding across the greenery and mud and into the lagoon. It was HUGE, the size of a sperm whale, like a tractor trailer. It was vibrating and my whole body started resonating to the deep sound, just like in a nightclub when all my organs resonate to the deep bass. Suddeny they were everywhere, sliding all around me into the water, and they absoluetly FILLED the entire bay with their massive shapes and sounds, The deep whale talk felt so wise and otherwordly, and I *knew* they held ancient knowledge. I just stood there, overwhelmed, watching them swim and surface and feeling their sounds resonate my whole body, wanting so deeply to understand. Kramer was nearby in some kind of beachhouse and I called him but he somehow didn't see or hear any of this. I quickly released the need to go get him and just let myself soak in the holiness. I felt so blessed!

My first thought when I woke was, how quickly I have forgotten that I belong in Hawaii. What at moments feels like a crystal clarity gets softened over the weeks in the city, with this lifestyle. It was a mini revelation, again. A sweet reminder. And the whales! I have had dreams of whales before and I am glad they are visiting me again. Thank you whales! This message felt SO big I just had to write it down.

I did it. Today, I went back to the gym for the first day since July. I was a bit stunned when the guy at the front desk said, "how was your summer?" when I checked in. I actually didn't realize it had been that long since I had been in. But there it was. The reality. Where had I been? What had I been doing? Hoop practices. Meditations. Work. So it was a nice day to be back. Of course they had lots of wicked new machines that looked crazy space age. I hopped on one at casually selected level 14 for 35 minutes. By the end I was a sweating, heaving wreck. Crunches, arm weights ,stretching then left. Especially after teaching two classes tonight, I can literally feel the connective tissue in my knees and legs humming. Winding down from a day at work... anticipating tomprrow's holiday...

I went to an all day Lee Carroll event today, a scientist who has channelled an angelic entity named, "Kryon" for the past 19 years. I was totally unprepared for what was shared... part of me thought that it would be similar to the Kryon books I have been reading. Actually, the actual channeling which took place in the last 15 minutes of the 5 hour event was much less interesting than the lectures Lee gave, as himself during the first four hours and forty five minutes...

Divine Source of All,
Brilliant Beauty in All Things,
Electromagnetic Crystalline Web of One-Ness~

I am so grateful!
I see myself walking a path of joy
Seeking joyful, playful bliss in every moment of every day!
Feeling joy, the body tingling, the efervescence, the zinging fun elation and excitement of the shimmering "YES!" to life!

I see myself having FUN and laughing and smiling and giggling
I see love surrounding me in a vibrating field of rainbow colored lights
I envision total peacefulness, divine perfection and a sense of connection
Thank you!!!

I see my skin clear, healthy, vibrant and radiant
My body is lean, healthy, strong and saturated with life energy
My thoughts are positive and always seek delight
My relationships birth wonder
My words and actions bring light and miracles to everyone
Oh, yes!

I nourish myself with foods which bring out my inner shine and choose wisely
Eating raw, brightly colored vegetables of green, red, orange, purple and more
Blessing my foods with healing images before consuming their wealth of energy
And worshiping water everyday through a personal hydration practice
Saturating the cells and space between my cells with precious liquid
The consciousness of my nutritional nurturing changes me at a cellular level
Uh huh!

I see myself experiencing personal growth through pleasure and ease
I see fantastic surprises of awareness and "aha"s!
12 strands of my DNA are vibrating with activation galore
I sense soothing sensations of Divine connection and guidance
I can clearly hear thousands of angels laughing and advising me in every moment
I easily transcribe uplifting messages from my guides which restore peace
I am so excited about this! Oh Yea!

I see myself starting each day, asking:
"Help me to perform whatever miracles you want of me today"
Moving into meditations of radiant geometric symbols, beings of light and soul quickening,
Emerging with a sense of "Oh! I understand"!
Walking through the day, amplifying my service to humanity
Bringing wellness to people, animals, and the Earth.
Laughing, laughing!

I imagine my Soul Family around me, I feel the strength of their purpose and focus, Absorbing the bounty of connection and high vibration,
I sense the light from the Central Sun, I feel the guidance of the Masters, I resonate with the accelerating diamond-like clarity of Source!
And so it is!

I feel the warm sunlight on my skin, soaking in the nutritious heat of purification
I swim in salty turquoise tropical waters with dolphins and whales
I slumber restfully under swaying palm trees, wiggling sand between my toes
Massaging rose quartz crystal spheres in my hands, feeling the divine pinkness
I climb super green mountains to cherished sacred waterfall grottos
Immersing myself in ultra-activated waters and feeling so good!
Pilgrimidge to spectacular sites which have absorbed millions of prayers
And play in the lightbliss of just sitting, breathing and being
Yes, I invite these experiences into my now!

Divine Wonderessence of the Universe, which runs through me and is me,
I see myself choosing personal growth over personal gain
Trusting the perfect process of emotions and unfolding
Seeking at all times ways of thinking and being which feel more joyful
Letting go and releasing anything which is not brilliant, bountiful and nurturing
Making friends with my ego and choosing a higher path with tender compassion
This is truely the way to live, being light, bringing light, birthing light
Thankfulness is here!

It certainly has been a while since I have blogged! For a while it was like a lifeline... but acceleration in life has caused pause....

Also, something else interesting has arisen... a question of what is appropriate to put on a "professional" blog... what is "too personal"?

I get so many thank you notes from customers for my brutal honesty and sharing of life experience that I literally screened nothing from my transcriptions. But recently this has come up as an issue when I had a potential client decide not to hire me based on a blog entry! Shocking, but true.

So... there has been a sudden shift in the force of my blogs. Now, suddenly I have this second guessing happening, wondering, "is this not professional enough?", "will I offend people by sharing my personal beliefs?". So I trimmed down entries to nutrition tips, promotional information, media, and mostly hoop practice.

Honestly, it is not as satisfying. Is it as boreing on your side as it is on mine? There was such a luminescent joy in sharing everything going on in my life. My business is honestly a part of me... and it is interwoven with many other aspects of my awakening, try as I might to keep boundaries in place.

The bottom line is that what moves me about hooping is how it has been a part of my own empowerment, transformation and unfolding as a woman. I value your input, my dear readers, about what feeds you most from my blogs so I can keep delivering what feels good!

Meanwhile I am loving the sunshine nurturing from the beach here. Went for a 2 hour walk this morning in a bikini (an awesome change after the many layers in 40 degree weather and rain in San Francisco!) just absorbing the lightness of being from the super turquoise water and white sands. Something of a lighter, finer vibration happens breathing in the humid, warm air. I feel supported and loved in every cell! I am SO grateful to be here! Thank you!

I start every day with meditation in an outside area, on the earth in a special grove which I have created as a sacred sanctuary. I begin with my laughter practice~ warming up my abdomen with breathing and sounding exercises. I move into gentle sounds, then giggles, then full blown laughter. I ride waves of heart-warming chuckles for about thirty minutes, cresting, falling, surfing, rolling onto my back and kicking my legs with glee! I am feeling quite sparkly.

It has been a fascinating ride, these last few weeks. I have been downloading a lot of information, working long hours and sweetly surprised by the brilliance which has emerged. It feels really good, but also exhausting. Drinking gallons of water with lemon to stay clear...

Hmmmm... tonight after Bay Area Hoopers I swung by Borders and picked up "Dance of Kama Sutra" DVD, by Hemalaya. It has been on my mind for a couple weeks... as I have been wanting to stoke the fires of my inner Goddess!

I'm so glad I got it! I just spent the last hour feeling like an empress while undulating on the living room floor to the wonderful images and tantalizing music. Luxurious... full of beauty, presence and wonder...

I played with sultry elements I want to add to my dance... sweet delicious movements of my arms, my thighs, my hips, my eyes! There is so much power that can be moved with the eyes and conscious looking, and looking away... and back!

Slithering and sliding on the floor with the help of this hipnotic, intoxicating teacher Goddess who helped center me into my presence and breathe. The rolling movements felt so feminine and empowering... especially devoting the dance to an opening of the heart! I am so grateful for the virtual teachers available to me in my life, even from the comfort of my living-room. I can't wait to play with some of these exercises while hooping....

Beauty and love! They really all the most wonderful things in the world!

We arrived into Portland yesterday and Ann, Jasmine and I went to a steam and sauna spa for a while... a wonderful release of sweat and lots of girl bonding time. I feel so lucky to have such remarkable friends!

We had a big group out for sushi dinner and Carlos put on his shamanic business hat while speaking to me/us about business building challenges...

So many gems of wisdom!

Today I am including a practice in my blog from a book called, "The 15 Minute Miracle". Hooping is part of whole life practice of wellbeing and joy ... but there are other important aspects as well! One big part of my life is choosing to consciously create positive thoughts. When I combine hooping with these consciousness building activities, the benefits of both are amplified! Enjoy...

This weekend I had one of the biggest dreams of mine come true -- I attended a hoop training camp which united amazing hoopers and teachers from all over the United States, Japan, Australia and England. It took place in Santa Cruz at a lovely retreat center in the redwoods, supported by sweet lodging and tasty nourishing food.

What was most remarkable to me was the feeling that we were literally "all one"...
