Live The Life You Dream Of…

Welcome to May!
This last month has seen a lot of people feeling stuck and not able to move forward. Don’t worry! As both Mercury and Mars were in retrograde for the early part of April, it was still a time for review. There was a need for the completion of unfinished projects and tasks before moving forward, so don’t be concerned if you felt you hadn’t done as much as you wanted to do. Hopefully with the planetary shifts, your energy is starting to flow again and you are inspired to move forward again with new projects or start anew with old ones.

If you have realised that the old projects, situations and tasks are not worth pursuing any longer, then this weekend is the ideal time to let go.

Yes more letting go!

I know that some of you accept, let go and forgive more often than you did, which is excellent. But this weekend, with the ’super’ full moon there will be stronger energy to let go of those patterns, habits, emotions and situations which keep presenting themselves to you and you cannot shift. The moon is ’super’ as it is closer to the Earth and will be 16% brighter than an average full moon.  So make use of this full moon’s energy to help you let go.
The full moon will be on Saturday evening/ Sunday morning depending on your time zone and for exact times see www.fullmoon.info/en/fullmoon-calendar.html

To prepare write down everything you want to let go of. On Saturday evening when you see the full moon, read or say aloud what you are letting go of and then tear the piece of paper up or burn it.
Stay focused on how you feel after those situations have been released, close your eyes and imagine yourself in this state – how does it feel, what do you look like, do you feel lighter…. keep this feeling for as long as you can.
It would be lovely to hear your comments after you do this, so please e-mail me with them.

The other common theme this last month has been the number of people who have experienced the passing of a loved one. Everyone deals with bereavement differently and many have beliefs to help them along, but there are also many who cannot find any comfort in the unknown event of death. I have found that people who have had ‘near death experiences’ have a story to tell about what they felt and the ones I have heard, have all said that they saw or felt the presence of loved ones, felt love and no longer had a fear of dying. I have e-mailed the YouTube interview of Anita Moorjani many times to people experiencing loss and it has definitely given me comfort in my times of loss. Here is the link for those who haven’t seen it yet : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjLouLHH-_I and I hope it brings you some comfort too

There are still spaces available on my May and June workshops for those looking to book some self-development time on a Saturday – let me know if you would like to come along. I also do the workshops on a weekday for groups of 3 wanting to schedule in time during the week instead of a Saturday. Some of you may have noticed that my downloads are still £3 each following on from my March offer. I have decided to keep them at this price, so treat yourself to an afternoon or morning of meditation – recent downloads have been: meditating on your magnificent self, seeing the gratitude in your challenges and healing the body with light.

I have a stand at the Friends of Saltdean Lido Fun Day on Saturday 26th May 11am-4pm. It was a brilliant day last year, with lots of food, children’s activities, an entertainment stage and an arts and craft market. I’ll be promoting my meditation classes and life coaching for those local to the area who want to meet me. It’ll be lovely to see you

Have a great month and remember to use the energy of the full moon this Saturday ,

Try meditating before you sleep for an extremely deep, refreshing sleep.

How relaxed are you before you go to bed? Have you just watched the news? Have you just tweeted or checked one last e-mail? These will stimulate your mind and not be an aid to a restful night’s sleep.

Instead try switching off all your technology, equipment and screens at least 30 minutes before you go to bed and then do some breath meditation to relax yourself before you sleep.

Concentrate on your breath, allowing your focus to come away from your day and into the moment. The deeper you breathe, the more relaxed you should start feeling.

Try it today and notice the difference in your sleep.

I am back from my travels to India. My husband, Jay Parmar, and I were doing some charity work helping out the people in remote villages with shelter, food and clothes. We also did an animal camp where farmers can bring their sick animals for treatment they cannot afford and the vets travel from the town to them.

It had been a while since I’ve been to India and I was amazed at how much had changed especially in the big city Mumbai. It has become a massive shopping mall and consumerism is spreading so fast! The divide between the rich and poor also seems to be growing, with an Aston Martin showroom a few blocks down from slums – very surreal.

Our charity work though was very inspiring and we brought a lot of smiles and hope to many people.

With this in mind, I thought the tip of the week (yes I am late this week, so it is a Thurs tip) could be to see how you can inspire or be inspired this week. It can be acts of kindness you are giving and if you are, then please share this on the facebook page too: http://www.facebook.com/tarajni. It may be how nature is inspiring you or maybe a person. Or you may be doing something which is inspiring others. Take some time out and think what this could be this week.

Have a good week and see you next Tuesday

Limiting beliefs are beliefs which you have encountered from childhood and are holding onto – even though they may not be true now or never have been true.

Have you ever been told as a child that you were not good enough? Maybe you got a low grade at a subject in school and ever since then it has dented your self-belief… it is time to let these restricting or limiting beliefs go!

As an adult it is very important that you have your own truth about yourself and not allow old beliefs to shape your present and therefore your future.

A simple way to disempower any limiting or restrictive beliefs you may be holding is to write ways in which they have not been true throughout your life. Keep remembering and keep writing. Once these are written down, keep reminding yourself of them whenever the limiting belief pops into your head.

Speaking the truth especially to yourself is so important – there will be a throat chakra meditation on my site http://www.anamaya.net dated 13th Feb 2012 but uploaded in advance from this Saturday 28th Jan for you to strengthen your throat chakra and therefore your ability to speak the truth.

I am away for two weeks and completely offline so the next Tuesday Tip will be Feb 14th!

Try this tip and see the difference it makes to all aspects of your life. I am looking forward to hearing your comments.

Visualisation is such a powerful tool to manifest what you want.

When you visualise make it more effective by bringing your emotions into it.

How easy or comfortable does the visualisation feel? Can you bring joy, happiness and contentment to the image moving through your mind. The more you can feel the emotions tied in with what you are visualising on, the easier and quicker it will be to manifest and create what you visualise.

Enjoy it – it is like a wonderful daydream just waiting to happen

Over the Christmas and New Year break, I had a clear out of my office space and re-organised where and how I work. The new energy I now feel when I work there is wonderful

So the tip for today is ‘declutter and feel the difference‘…

Declutter all aspects of your home and business life – clothes, drawers, your working space, e-mail inbox, people you spend time with. Clearing out and feeling new energy can be done on all levels and in all areas of your life.

Don’t worry it doesn’t have to be done all at once! Take your time and tackle a part of your life per month or per week.

Believe me, you will feel a difference!

With Christmas coming up and a mad rush to do everything before people close for the holidays, it can be very easy to get caught up in the chaos and not take a moment out to breathe.

The busier you are, the more need for you to take some moments off to centre yourself, breathe and be calm.

Two minutes is all you need! Stop what you’re doing, close your eyes and focus on your breathing.

Try it today

I love the end of the year – it gives me a chance to assess how the year was.

I look at professional achievements, self-development, challenges I have come through. I look through my gratitude book at what I have been grateful for. In fact everything about the year. The challenges and the great things! I also see what lessons the challenges gave me and how they have helped me grow.

My tip for this Tuesday is for you to start looking back at the year – see what comes to mind immediately and which month you really have to remember what you did! Trust me, it’ll be interesting
