Thoughts about self judgement






About the movie "What the Bleep do we know?"


"If you can't control your emotional state, you must be addicted to it.."




..What always puzzled me, was how I could be so positive and uplifting on the outside and at the same time, be so negative about myself.


Honestly, I didn't like me very much. I had this wrong image of myself for a long time.


It doesn't matter how much I had improved in many aspects of my life, I used to look at myself with 'bad eyes".

We usually live today with yesterday's expectations.

It's easier than we think to change our minds about ourselves.
I used hypnosis to look at myself from the outside and worked for me.
Revaluating it, I love myself.
I hope you do too.


Do you?

My latest discoveries; hypnosis and Quantum Physics

It all started 5 weeks ago when I decided to see a friend of mine, who is a hypnotherapist.
My previous idea of hypnosis was as a stage show, some kind of "mind manipulation", never thought as a healing therapy.
My experience was a soothing and enlightening treatment.
Instead of being taken to a state of unconsciousness, (where you can't control or remember), your mind goes to a "state of alertness".
I wondered using my imagination ..

After the first sessions, I noticed a mild and continuous change in my behavior. My response to different issues of everyday life was balanced and stress free.
Just like that?, I reasoned.
Then I watched "What the Bleepy do we know?" (Netflix), and understood that Quantum Physics explains hypnosis , at least for me.

Quantum Physics is a science of possibilities. It acknowledges and studies God.

My favorite lines in the movie:
"Ask men to explain God is like ask a fish to explain the water it lives in ."

"It is like looking at yourself through the eyes of the Ultimate Observer."

" What happens in our minds, manifests outside of us."

Then I had a AHHA moment!.. hypnosis takes you to your "perfect place", and your mind can stay there, if you allow ..
I learned a lot more watching this movie,
For now, I'll leave you with that..
Aloha,
Celia

Through the eyes of a volunteer


It's been almost 2 years since I started volunteering with Maui Pet Therapy and I can honestly say that my life has changed with a great magnitude.
Being part of a program that brings so much joy and healing to the patients we visit every week, had changed my perspective of what is really important in life.
We all have something to give, a smile, a kind word...
Being around the animals has inspired me to go back to an old passion of mine, writing.
I wrote an inspirational children's book based on a true story of one of our therapy dogs, Mana.
Mana had been rescued and trained by Dr. Shannon Domingues, Director of Maui Pet Therapy, and now does an excellent job and is always ready to work.
Mana was abandoned along a roadside and had all the odds stacked against her and with love, dedication and training became a certified therapy dog.
Rescued animals are wonderful pets, once they are given a chance.
