NEWSLETTER FROM BLOOMING RELATIONSHIPS

At last I have settled into 2007. I wasn't ready there for a while. Now it feels like a welcome and familiar friend.

A major part of my personal life and work life journey lately has been thinking about and trying to understand my energy and my relationship to other people's energy. I find it amazing to consider how connected we are to each other and to everything in nature, while at the same time we are all struggling to have our own unique sense of self. Everything affects me. Which then means, of course, I affect everything. It might seem like a lot of power. Sometimes it feels like a blade of grass on the stormy sea. But most of all it feels like something I want to better understand.

Two things come to mind for me about my growing up years that contribute to my musing about energy. One is a "memory" or a "knowing" (an energetic knowing) that as I was being born I thought to myself, "My goodness! I didn't know this was going to happen again so soon!" The other knowing I have is of my best friend ever, Bradshaw, who was a constant and dependable companion no one else could see, but I talked about whenever given the opportunity. We played together endless hours. Both memories are Stories I Tell Myself (see previous newsletter), because I have talked about this and thought about this often enough over the years that it is far more what my adult mind says and far less about what my adult mind holds in conscious memory.

"I didn't know this was going to happen again so soon", and "Bradshaw", are both about going back and stretching ahead. Continuity. Not ending. Always being. What is this that goes back and stretches ahead? I call it energy. I also call it me.

Some Stories I Tell Myself are that I was an imaginative child, I have had other lives, and I was still connected to another world as a small child. I also tell myself I chose my parents because I had particular lessons to learn and growing to do that could happen with Ruth and Fred as my parents. I certainly took my own sweet time to learn those lessons! But it does seem to be happening. At least, that is the story I tell myself.

I am learning to use my energy and my knowing. I am prepared to guide and facilitate your journey with energy as well. Because I have six decades of experience in stretching and learning, I believe I can facilitate you and you and your partner as your journey together unfolds.

I invite you to join me in some next steps.

Sometimes I wonder if we have already met.

Someday I hope to go to my cottage (that I do not yet have) in the woods of northern Michigan to discover my way into a deeper and deeper knowing. When that happens, I will share the journey with you.

A recent reading I suggest:

"The Law of Attraction", by authors Esther and Jerry Hicks, featuring Abraham.

A recent CD I suggest:

"The Secret", a meditation with Kelly Howell. My grandson downloaded mine from Itunes.

A recent video I suggest:

"The Secret". I find the original one that features Esther Hicks and Abraham more satisfactory than the edition that has edited them out.

Warmly, Nancy Ross

Nancy, your blog and newsletters helped me to blow through my blocked-for-months creativity. I created a blog myself. Thank you.
