Healing a tornado funnel cloud: do you think it made a difference?

One thing about thinking of yourself as a healer and being aware of your profound ability to make a difference in every moment is that interesting healing situations crop up everywhere! 

Yesterday we drove home in a torrential downpour from touring the town's brand new high school.  Right away, on the south edge of town, we noticed a long, thin, dark funnel cloud pulling out of the clouds ahead of us and running mostly parallel to the ground, with the wispy end angling downward slightly.  We watched it in fascination as we drove right under it.  By the time we reached the library, the town's tornado siren was wailing.

I grew up in the midwest and remember my parents alertly monitoring such potential twisters.  Most of the time, they never came near us.  But in the 8-10 mins of our trip from the high school, the end had significantly widened and was now pointing down maybe 30 degrees off of vertical.  Eek!  Would it get bigger?  Would it reach for the earth?  We debated, watched, checked weather.com for news, and marveled that a long funnel cloud like that could hold its shape so steadily for so long.

Then, I realized the clouds were actually slowly drifting towards us.  Well, this was fascinating and educational and all, but what a pain if it touched down in town and messed up property!

"Do you think Reconnective Healing would do anything for it?" I asked my son, who is also a Reconnective Healing practitioner.  

"I don't know," was his excellent answer. 

"Well, if Reconnective Healing brings out the highest potential for all in a situation, then whatever the outcome, it will be best," I said and started healing work aimed at the clouds.  

Within a minute the funnel had broken in half.  Within four minutes it was gone.  The sirens stopped.  We looked at each other.

Coincidence?  "Re-coincidence"?  What do you think?

I find it delightfully amusing that we will never know if the healing was what ended the funnel.  And does it really matter? 

Either way, a tornado did not rip through our town today, and I hope you had a pleasant afternoon as well.

Healing the lake

From my newsletter before I started this blog, July 5, 2008:

Well!  I could spend every post talking about the incredible coincidences that punctuate my days!  Thursday I had arranged to meet my friend Althea in Madison, WI, where we went for a walk along Lake Monona.  A small park along the lakefront tugged at me hard and we crossed the street.  I followed my feet onto a floating dock and, with all the recent flooding in Wisconsin, we walked UP the hinged first segment of (instead of the usual DOWN). 

I love looking out over water, don't you?  At my feet, it was fascinating that the current under the water (full of the green dots of algae) was going one direction, (toward the dock), while the surface of the water (covered with tiny flower petals) was going another (toward the middle of the lake).  What a metaphor for people, I said -- trying to appear on the surface to be something different than we are underneath!

Then I saw the fish -- tons of little bluegills and a striped perch or two.  I had to say HI!  They were everywhere.  Then Althea mentioned it felt like a kind of fog was over the lake and I could feel it too.  Thick, slow.  So while we continued chatting, I did some Reconnective Healing over the water to see if that would help.  You never know about healing, but you can always offer it. 

I played, and we talked.  Then, after several minutes the wind picked up suddenly and tiny ripples on the water made it look all sparkly.  I smiled and asked Althea if the lake felt the same, and, surprised, she said no, not at all.  Then we tuned into something that felt like a giant muddy morass in the middle of the lake, and I focused there.  After a while longer, we agreed that it felt like some container was still there but it was empty now, whatever that means.  But overall, the lake felt much better. 

As we turned to leave she pointed down and said, "Look!"  Now both layers of the water were going in exactly the same direction. 

We finished our delightful walk. 

Feeling more intensely after The Reconnection

A Reconnection-based HealerToHealer.com entry from Sunday, March 25, 2007, less than 2 months after my Reconnection:

I am Spring
I have never been so connected to Spring. I have never in my life been so aware of every moment of melting snow, every degree of warming air, each green bud peeking up through the dirt, even the daffodils in the grocery store!  Friday night, on my amazing healing circle conference call, we began, as we do, with a visualization to harmonize us together -- but this time, instead of connecting with light, we connected with darkness. With cool, receptive, comforting, refreshing, nurturing yin darkness. It was a very powerful connection. After a while, I felt like a seed in the earth, just beginning to wake up. By the end of the call, I felt fully nourished and ready to emerge. (I love those calls!)

And this morning, it felt like an exquisite experience to be able to hop out of bed without thinking "brrr", then to so easily turn off the shower water when I washed my hair and enjoy the coolness of my wet skin instead of shivering. I love how much joy I find and feel in these simple things! I had no idea life could be this good.

Much has changed in me and in my life in the last seven months or so. Among other things, in February I had a Reconnection, and it was so wonderful that I am now planning to take the training for this unusual process later this year. The Reconnection fully reconnects you to who you are, as well as the resources of the earth and the Universe. I have felt better, slept better, been healthier and have moved through "stuff" much easier since then. Is this what has so reconnected me with spring?

It's like I AM spring. I AM the buds emerging from the earth. I AM the birds singing. (I saw my first redwinged blackbird three weeks ago already!) I AM the thawing and relaxing of the ground.

May such Peace and Joy be yours, too!

Polishing silver with Reconnective Healing

Story from my client newsletter, July 2008:

Yesterday, I wanted to wear my silver star necklace and earrings that I hadn’t worn in 10 years.  They were totally tarnished black, so I got out the silver polish.  I don’t have the super-quick dip-it kind, so I daubed on the regular creamy blue polish and added elbow grease.  I barely made a dent after a several minutes!  The black came off the edges of the stars, but barely budged from the middles.  Of course, I wanted to be hurrying and leaving the house early at the moment.  I added elbow grease. 

I’ve been playing recently with Reconnective Healing –- trying it out on my plants, in my yard, on the kids' mosquito bites.  Remember that once you have been Reconnected, or even have had a Reconnective Healing session, you too have these frequencies available to you all the time.  

Well, polishing was getting boring fast so I decided to play.  For fun I started doing Reconnective Healing while I worked.  I expected nothing of course -- they didn't cover working on jewelery in class.

But my mouth dropped open when immediately I saw the black start to fade before my eyes!  I kid you not.  I couldn't believe it.  I stopped for a few seconds, stopped the Healing, and then polished the regular way again, just using force.  Like before, I could see slight changes only after several passes of the cloth.

So after another minute of that, I shifted into Reconnective Healing again. Immediately, I could see a slight change with each pass of the cloth. Wow. Shocked and confused, but still in a hurry, I used the Reconnective Healing to finish fast.

OK.  What was going on?  Does Reconnective Healing really polish silver?  Does it change the inanimate silver molecules?  Does it allow the necklace to move closer to its full potential?  Does it allow order to be created from disorder and decay on its surface?  I have no clue!  But ponder this:  Reconnective frequencies connect living beings like you to your Full Potential, and to your life's purpose, or why you're here. They make it easier for you to do what you came here to do, and you can heal, even instantly, if that's getting in your way.

Yesterday morning my destination was church, to talk about meditation and talk to the kids about how most adults wish they were more childlike, even as we ask them to act more grown up.  The earring polishing was delaying me, so finishing that faster would move me along my spiritual path.  How the frequencies worked to actually untarnish the silver, I am not sure.  Perhaps tarnished silver is just another of those illusions that The Reconnection helps you to see though in very real and immediate ways.  ;)

I do love how my life has become a delightful adventure since my Reconnection!  How about yours?

Expectations can blind you to healing

It can be limiting to enter a healing situation, as the practitioner or the seeker of healing, with specific expectations.  We all naturally do this, but it's a very logical (left-brained) way to approach healing, which is distinctly a non-logical (right-brained) phenomenon. 

In other words, healing does not compute.  For instance, it is holographic and holistic:  it does not work on one level -- you experience healing benefits throughout your being and life.  Having expectations about your session limits your thinking, blinds you to seeing and appreciating healing in unexpected venues. 

Eric Pearl, founder of The Reconnection, suggests coming to your healing session in a state of expectancy rather than with specific expectations or demands.  This wisdom is not limited to healing.  It also applies to our spiritual journey and practices  (a major side effect of which is... well... healing).

I came across a lovely description of this issue over Thanksgiving while rereading The Wisdom of the Enneagram by Don Riso and Russ Hudson, Bantam, 1999, page 347.  Another point they make is that we often think of healing as "fixing" things that are wrong, another concept that doesn't apply to wholism, spirituality or healing.  Please enjoy their insights:

"A major obstacle to regular practice is the expectation that we will attain a specific result.  Ironically, this obstacle is a problem especially if we have made significant breakthroughs with our practice.  The personality seizes on breakthroughs and wants to re-create them on demand.  But this is not possible because breakthroughs occur only when we are completely open to the present moment, while anticipating a certain payoff distracts us from such experiences.  In this moment, a new gift or insight is available -- although more likely not the one that was available last week.  Furthermore, the personality may use our breakthroughs as justifications to stop practicing, saying, "Great!  You've had a breakthrough!  Now you're 'fixed' and you don't need to do this any more."

P.S.  Funny story:  I just opened a Dove chocolate as I saved this, and the saying on the inner wrapper is: "Set your goals high but not your expectations."  :)

A life of heightened ease and grace in holiday planning

From my October 2007 client newsletter:

Another of the effects of my Reconnection in February [2007] that I've noticed is kind of hard to describe but really wonderful.  Like so many, it's subtle but noticeable. It is a sort of heightened awareness, like living more vividly, more in-the-moment, plus with grace and ease. Like I can notice everything around me more easily and enjoy it more.

I'm much more aware of where I am in time, too, which is new and different.  I've typically been pretty lost when it comes to time, scheduling and the like.  What hit me recently is that I usually start Christmas stuff after Thanksgiving "attacks" and leaves me in its wake.  Usually, I resist planning for Christmas because it's such a headache and I'm not a planner.  We have 4 kids, generous aunts & uncles, and three sets of grandparents -- yes, I do have a HUGE spreadsheet and actively manage a lot of gift-buying to significantly tone down the Christmas morning craze.  I'm toast (though happy toast) by 12/26.

This year, however, it's very strange.  For the first time ever, I'm very gently aware that the holiday season is approaching.  I have even started to think about and buy gifts.  I don't feel stressed, just in the flow of it... maybe even looking forward to it.  No panic, no denial (I think that's what made Thanksgiving a surprise).  Just grace and ease.  This is really weird for me.  And wonderful.

How about you?  Did The Reconnection affect the way you perceive the world around you?

My strange experiences in the Level III (Reconnection) class

In early July 2007, I took the level III class right after level I/II, with Bee Jimpson and Karen Keeney. The first unusual thing that leaped out at me was that, as we learned each stage of the process of The Reconnection®, I memorized it. I just had it, instantly. Now, over the years I have learned more than a dozen different massage therapy and energy healing routines. And I needed cheat sheets to get through all of them, even with lots of practice, so this was highly unusual.

Another strange thing was that at one point (and I wasn't even on the table), I very clearly smelled Jasmine, one of my favorite essential oils and flowers. I got a clear whiff and then it was gone, though I sniffed my way around the table and asked if anyone else had smelled it (nope).

On the second day, however, when they held up a chart that had to do with the sealing process at the end of The Reconnection (one of the reasons it doesn't come undone is this sealing process), tears suddenly started welling up in my eyes.  I felt a distinct feeling of relief and satisfaction, and then thoughts like, "Oh, I found it again, it wasn't lost, it's still here, I found it, it's still here..." floated through my mind while the rest of me watched, puzzled and a little embarrassed about the tears in the middle of class.  

Very odd.

Past life?  Intuiting someone else's thoughts?  What do you think that was?

Overall, throughout the class, it felt as if some part of me knew The Reconnection very well or had been waiting for it. I've often had the experience that someone or something I would get to know very well in the future felt quite familiar to me the first time I experienced it. (Time runs in two directions, dontcha know.) So I suspected I was going to get to know The Reconnection very well. And I have.

Today when I Reconnect a client or do a Reconnective Healing session, I get the hugest happy feeling. I always feel better when I'm done than when I start. I absolutely love it and could do this ALL DAY LONG!!!  Have you been drawn to the Reconnection or Reconnective Healing in any inexplicable ways?

The #1 result of having Reconnective Healing is...

Though clients have a variety of experiences on the table and after their sessions, I find there is one result that stands out most consistently in my mind.  

That would be (drumroll please): decluttering with grace and ease.

In the days, weeks or months after a Reconnection or Reconnective Healing session, clients very often declutter their home space.  Reorganizing closets, letting go of old possessions, rethinking their furniture, cleaning off kitchen counters.  A couple months after my own parents were Reconnected, they firmly presented me with a box of my childhood "stuff" they had extracted from their closets!

Clients rarely connect this physical decluttering with their healing work.  Partly this is because like so many of the results of Reconnective Healing, it flows so naturally it almost seems to happen by itself. (You were meaning to clean the garage for five years but two weeks after your Reconnection you suddenly realize it's not so hard and do it in one weekend?  Hmmm...)  

But I see a clear connection.  The Reconnection connects you more completely with your full self, with your higher self and your full potential, however you name or conceive of that.  You more clearly become who you truly are.  You can more easily sense when clutter in your life doesn't support you or your potential. You can feel its interference more easily, so you clean it up!  

Have you experienced decluttering in any form after your Reconnective Healing work?

More results from my personal Reconnection (2): Writing

One of my favorite effects that happened several months after my Reconnection is that I remembered I was born to be a writer.  Today I am finally writing again, both poetry and books.  Writing for a living was a dream I gave up in my early 20s, when I decided I couldn't make money at it -- which was the only way I knew how to value myself and base life decisions on back then.

So about a year after my personal Reconnection, I stretched myself and hired a well-known business coach to help me expand my business out to where I could feel it should be.  In our first meeting in January 2008, we decided I really had to start writing "my book".  That in itself has been a huge healing process of self-discovery, and now, almost two years later, with the help of three editors and a publicist, that book has become a series of seven books for healers, plus a few ebooks in line to boot. The first paper book is due out in 2010, and the first small ebook is available now for free at HealerToHealer.com.  More are coming...

The Plot Twist:  Even More Healing

An additional layer on this healing story is that earlier this summer (2009) I finally admitted that writing has been unusually exhausting, time-consuming, and difficult for the last year and a half. (Well, expressing ideas was easy, but editing and making it come out in the right order was very hard.) Through a series of 'coincidences' that started with listening to a wonderful (and free) Eric Pearl interview on Conscious Media Network, I have officially discovered and admitted to having the gift of dyslexia.  

I'd suspected it for a long time of course, and healed some issues early on as a healer (like not being able to find the correct next line of text).  But this summer I finally was able to easily face the issue fully and without shame, and for the first time desired to move through it with official help. One way we heal is not to wake up miraculously cured one morning, but to let go of hiding our problems out of fear and solve them.

If you know anyone with dyslexia, ADD or autism, then in addition to recommending some Reconnective Healing of course, I'd also point you to Ron Davis's fascinating books about the dyslexic mind and how he learned to learn. As a former dyslexic and autistic himself, Ron's is a beautiful story of a healed wounded healer, and he tells his tale in a Conscious Media Network interview, too. Ron Davis writes the best description I've ever read of what happens in the mind of a dyslexic. Understand your loved ones by reading:

   ~ The Gift of Dyslexia, by Ron Davis       AND     ~ The Gift of Learning, by Ron Davis

I love God's sense of humor in creating a dyslexic writer, but thanks to my Reconnection, healers can look forward to some of my books about the healer's spiritual path in the future!  Have you had any healings or spiritual evolution that surprised you since your Reconnection?

Insurance for Reconnection Practitioners at ABMP

From a January 2008 email to clients:  please check with ABMP for current information, at abmp.com.

Great news for those of you who have taken the Reconnection classes and are considering setting up a Reconnective Healing practice AND who are looking for practice insurance.  Here is one option:  consider ABMP, the Association of Bodywork and Massage Professionals, for just $199/year.  (This is where I've been insured for a few years now.)  Because one of you asked, I just got off the phone with the ABMP president, Katie Armitage, who adjusted their list of approved practices to cover Reconnective Healing and The Reconnection, yahoo!!!!

They provide liability insurance coverage, $2 million per incident, plus other benefits like a bodywork magazine, website listings, etc.  Please review their policy and get all the information before making your own decision, of course.

Usually there is a 100 hour minimum bodywork training requirement for their Practitioner Membership (membership includes insurance).  If you do not have this bodywork/massage therapy, or nursing training, however, you can now still get that membership with a "one technique letter" on the insurance policy.  That means that with your Reconnective Healing certificate(s) from class, you can get the insurance but it will only cover you doing the Reconnective healing or doing The Reconnection, whatever you have taken the class for.  Just specify Reconnective Healing, or Reconnective Healing and The Reconnection when you apply. 

Let me know if you sign up for this.  I'd like to know that it's working like she said it would!  Thanks.

Bite bug bites back

Welcome to bug season!  There's something around here in Wisconsin that takes a nasty bite.  Someone said chiggers, but I'm not sure.  It's like a mosquito bite that is both painful and itchy.  It swells into a huge, rock-hard lump, about the diameter of a golf ball.  They go black and blue as they very slowly heal, and they make the kids miserable, as well as making them look later like they've been in a fight.

But two years ago, in the face of an unhappy bitten child, I gently lay my hand over the area to do some hands-on Reconnective Healing.  We chatted and after about two minutes, I thought I must have moved my hand because I could feel my daughter's skin pull away from mine.

But no, it had just decreased in swelling that much!  The area was also much softer. I've tried this over and over, and I find it rather entertaining to do this for just a few minutes (no more than 5, usually 2 or 3) until I feel the swelling recede under my hand.  The bites also tend to heal up super fast!  

What is your favorite experience with hands-on Reconnective Healing?

More results from my personal Reconnection (1)

I had my personal Reconnection in February 2007, and felt better almost immediately, as described in my April 2009 post.  But that was only the beginning.  I soon started noticing bigger, deeper results. 

About a month after my Reconnection, I found myself painting my office.  What you don't know about this simple act is that this sunny room by the front door had been intended as my healing office since we bought the house.  Yet it had sat empty -- or rather, it had sat stuffed full of unopened boxes and badly installed cabinetry waiting to be reinstalled.  It was a saga and an eyesore, and I finally put a screen across the open doorway, yet I continued to avoid the whole room or resolving any of the issues in it...

For five years.

In contrast, just a couple short weeks after my Reconnection, I'd somehow figured out what to do with the once impossible-to-move stuff!  I had the office designed (by Inner View Consulting -- highly recommended) and I suddenly found myself painting the ceiling lavender. The walls became butter yellow, I've got a window seat full of colorful pillows, a purple chair, and she even found me a fun, red polka-dot lamp for my desk. 

As I painted, however, I could not figure out why I didn't do this earlier -- it was just so simple!  Since my Reconnection, in fact, there have been several things I "couldn't" do before (two in the "always wanted to do" category) that I suddenly found myself doing without unusual effort. This effect seems to be especially true if these activities are in alignment with my spiritual development and growth.  

It wasn't until long after I finished decorating my office and had new french doors installed that I finally realized the importance of this act: this was the first time in over 8 years of being a healer that I had a dedicated office just for my work!  The first time.  It was a huge, important step for me towards taking myself, my inner healer, and my healing work more seriously.  It also began a process of taking steps to stop playing small. (More on THAT later...)

 

And the crazy thing is, it was EASY.  It was like it happened by itself, no effort from me.  How about you?  What has happened by itself or become easy after your Reconnection? 

Do you KNOW there's more?

"I used to think that people fell into one of three groups: those who don't believe in anything beyond their basic five senses, those who are open to the possibility that there might be something beyond those senses, and those who definitely believe there's something more.  Yet suddenly I find myself in a fourth, smaller group:  those who know there's something more."

How I came to have my personal Reconnection

When I turned 40 in October of 2006, I would get a rather buzzy feeling thinking about the year ahead of me.  Just 93 days later I was Reconnected (on February 1 & 3, 2007), and my life has been quickly transforming ever since.

I met Ronette because she was my cousin's healer's friend in Sedona's friend in LA (of course).  She had moved to Madison a year and a half earlier.  Everyone said we should get together, so we finally did.  She was wonderful.  On her way out of my house one cold January afternoon, she threw over her shoulder, “Oh, I forgot to tell you I also do this thing called The Reconnection.”  

Out of my mouth immediately popped, “I'd like to do that, it sounds great.”  

A moment later when my brain caught up with my mouth, I asked what precisely a Reconnection was. The answer didn't stick, but we scheduled anyway.  Logically, I don’t know why I did.  I was fond of understanding (and picking apart) other healing methods before rushing to have them done.

So I had no idea what The Reconnection was at the time of my appointment, which was probably good, since I would have been a snob about it.  (Yes, I had quite the healer's ego at the time, but that is another story...)  I was shocked by the price tag, but wrote the check and lay down on the massage therapy table anyway.

After she told me to close my eyes, I had dropped into a meditative state within seconds.  I rarely sat still to meditate and had a very hard time focusing back then, but I knew that buzzy meditative state I could eventually get into with a lot of effort, where I just don't want to move.   

On my way home from my first appointment, I was unreasonably ecstatic about whatever had just happened.  In the car just a block from her house, I asked the Universe aloud how I could get more of this kind of energy into my life.  (Yes, it's "frequencies", not energy...)  In my mind's eye, I saw a picture of my hands curving around an invisible ball, palms facing each other at about noon and 6:00.  My practitioner had loaned me Eric Pearl’s book to read before my second session; I about fell off my chair when I got to the part where he describes an energy exercise exactly like that.

After my second Reconnection appointment, I was flying, felt like my feet weren’t touching the ground.  A week later, I read the book again, and it became the first and only chapter book I'd read more than once -- cover to cover no less, also highly unusual.  By night I scoured the internet for Eric Pearl interviews and listened to them multiple times, too.  

It took about a month for me to finally notice that I generally felt better, slept better, didn’t need as much sleep, and could eat chocolate like I was 20 again.  (That was quite fun for a while!)  By the end of March I had signed up for the Reconnective Healing I/II class, and had to wait an excruciatingly long three months for it.

But that was only the beginning of my transformation...   

A recoincidental healing session

A story from my client newsletter, November 2007:

For three days, I've been feeling under the weather, and struggling with some big "letting go" and future planning issues.  Doing Reconnective Healing on myself was just not flowing for whatever reason.  I had too many fears, I think.  Then my right lower jaw swelled up overnight and was very tender this morning, the last straw.  

So this morning I told the Universe that I accepted that I should have and would please like a Reconnective Healing session from someone else, so I could lie down and relax and stop stressing.  I had no idea who I was going to call or how I was going to arrange that, so I avoided doing so, for a while.  

Meanwhile, on the other side of town early this morning... a friend (who just took Reconnective Healing Level I/II) was thinking about the healing session she had scheduled for this morning with her acupuncturist a long time ago.  And while she was thinking about canceling and calling me to get a full RH session instead (but fighting doing that) the acupuncturist called and canceled the appointment!  So my friend, a Reconnective Healing Practitioner, calls me about getting a session within minutes of my deciding that I wanted a session. 

Do you want to trade, I asked?

This is how easy and harmonious life has become after my Reconnection.  It seems to work like this: when something will genuinely help you along your path, it comes along, often uncannily easily!

So we traded early this afternoon.  The swelling in my jaw, which had continued to swell slightly all morning, was down very noticeably by the end of the session, and is about 75% gone now (a few hours later).  Other issues I've been struggling with for three days are suddenly becoming clearer, too.  I love this!

I hope you are having fun with cool "recoincidences" in your Reconnected life too!!

Bach flower remedies and The Reconnection

Bach flower remedies are tinctures that hold the energy essence of a plant.  After many conversations with Reconnection clients who did and didn't use them, plus my own experiences, I believe these remedies can be useful in evening out the emotional impact of life's transitions following The Reconnection. 

We already know they don't affect the Reconnection itself.  (Not even Superman could stop that.)  But even Dr. Eric Pearl took five Bach remedies regularly after his Reconnection to help him transition more easily to this new level of Being. 

To try the remedies, find a health store that carries the line and see which ones you are drawn to.  Consider choosing up to five.  A sentence on the bottle grossly summarizes what it does.  You can make a mixutre of all five, or use them individually.  My favorite activity was to take a bath with three drops of each in it.  I didn't want to get out!

If you are indecisive, I invite you to consider Walnut, which "allows you to make or adapt to major life changes and to fulfill your ambitions free from the influence of others" (from the bottle).  From the Internet:  "Walnut helps to break links with the past so that the person can move forward with confidence and without undue suffering."  The Reconnection is impressively gentle, but change does seem to accelerate afterwards, always for the better, and towards your true life purpose.

If you have any other questions about your Reconnection or related experiences, please let me know.  Good luck and enjoy your Reconnected ride!

You have what you need when you need it

A friend and I traded a Reconnective Healing session after she took the level I/II class.  We had briefly discussed that a session is exactly 30 minutes, and I said sometimes my hands will drop by themselves and when I look over at the clock it's been exactly a half hour! 

But my friend, doing her first actual full session, was feeling a bit uncertain.  When 30 minutes rolled around, she saw that I was still in register and could still feel the frequencies moving around.  She wasn't sure how to proceed, wondering to herself, "Should I stop now?"

That very second, from the next room, my 4-year-old yelled at her sister:  "STOP!"

So cool. 

New job / change in plans recoincidence

So last year I coined the word “recoincidence” with my Reconnection clients to refer to a Reconnection-related coincidence.  These are the things that happen that make life SUPER easy:  the answer that presents itself right after asking that “impossible” question in exasperation, running into someone you wanted to see, money arriving in the mail the moment you run out, driving the “wrong” way when it turns out traffic ahead was being rerouted that way anyway, etc.  Recoincidences also seem to make it easier for you to stop messing with life's details and fulfill your purpose.

So here’s one from last July.  At that time, we'd had a regular daytime babysitter for our younger two kids for over a year.  But we decided that when the older one went to Kindergarten that fall, the youngest would go to a great daycare and we wouldn't need the babysitter any more.  Feeling guilty and cringing a bit, I told our babysitter what we were thinking of, hoping to land the news softly. 

“Oh,” she said brightly, “When is she going to start?  I’ve been offered a full-time position at my part-time job starting September 2.”  Yes, you guessed it, that was the exact first day of day care. 

Recoincidence means win-win, all around.  Thank you Universe, I love it!!!

Watch what you wish for

I said to friends: yes I could meet at 9 am next Thursday, but I have a 10 am so we'll have to keep it short.  After I sent the email, I looked longingly at my calendar thinking how nice it would be to have another half hour for the 9 o'clock meeting.  Oh well.

A couple minutes later, my 10 am called, apologizing and asking to push back to noon.  OKAY, SURE!

Recoincidence, with an almost immediate turnaround.  I've learned that it's a hint that I will gain something very supportive to my path from the 9am call...  I look forward to it!
