You’ve Got a Friend

“Self-care is never a selfish act; it is simply good stewardship of the only gift I have, the gift I was put on earth to offer to others.” – Parker Palmer

As she walked out the door, my friend Gloria said, “What would we do without our friends?” Three of us enjoyed a great lunch together and precious time to catch up. All three of us were going through a similar challenges and were surprised to learn that the others were experiencing the same.

There is a tendency to keep things to ourselves. We can minimize what we are experiencing and don’t want to bother anyone with our problems. Sometimes there are feelings of shame or guilt and it feels too vulnerable to share them out loud. The fear of rejection alone can keep us from connecting with others.

No doubt about it, reaching out takes courage. But the benefits far outweigh the fear. Friends can offer words of comfort, can listen without judgement and be physically present when we are going through something tough. Friends can help us build confidence when we are doubting ourselves. Friends help us be our best selves.

Reaching out to others is self-care. You are worth the time and energy. You are loved and appreciated more than you know. Summon your faith and courage and connect with a friend this week. Send a text and say hi. Or arrange for coffee time or a lunch. Be willing to receive. You will be so glad you did.

Imagine the Possibilities

“Everybody here on this plane is now ready to uplift whether they know it or not. If you can imagine right now that there is a tide that is rising and everyone is being lifted in this frequency, regardless of whether they know it or not, you will begin to understand that what is actually happening here is a global phenomenon.” Paul Selig, Book of Love and Creation

Almost everyone I know has shared about recently waking up in the middle of the night feeling anxiety and dread, worrying about things that may or may not happen. Our nervous systems are on high alert right now. What would it be like to contemplate a world of possibilities instead of thoughts of fear and dread. Imagine letting go of the worries of tomorrow and focusing on the infinite potential that await us.

Think about what the world would look like where we truly took control of our thoughts, prioritizing our desires rather than dwelling on what we do not want. While this wouldn’t magically solve all our problems, it would result in a calmer mind, a release of bodily stress, and a more peaceful vibration. As we see a greater potential for ourselves, we see that for others as well.

According to Joe Dispenza, the brain has the remarkable ability to form fresh neural connections and embrace new ideas. He states, “Spend time, contemplating who you want to be. The mere process of contemplating who you want to be, begins to change your brain.” As we shift to seeing things in a positive light, we raise our frequency. See yourself sending vibrations of love and peace.

We have an opportunity to send love where we see sorrow, to visualize peace where we see conflict, to recognize wholeness in the midst of lack. We can reframe what we are seeing and be open to infinite possibilities. When we refocus our energy and intention we contribute to a world that works for everyone.

See yourself sending vibrations of love and peace out before you. Affirm this attunement from Paul Selig:

“I am choosing now to recognize myself as a Divine Being in full manifestation. I rise above this planet. I rise above the limitations of this physical world, and I claim this: I am Love through all those standing before me on this earth.”

Thank you for raising the vibration of the planet.

Gratitudes

I am deeply grateful to serve as a spiritual mentor. My heart fills with joy to watch my clients grow and blossom on their spiritual journey. Here are some recent testimonials.

“I asked Christine to be my abundance coach and received so much more. She listened, shared insights and offered effective tools for maintaining our relationship on a spiritual path while we were closing down our family business of 44 years. I feel profoundly grateful for her prayerful and effective coaching–with her help both my partner and I came through this experience with our love intact. ” Carol D, Portland, OR

“I was 50 years old, divorced, and stuck in the middle of my career in the communication industry. I was enrolled in Christine’s class on Spiritual Economics, and I enjoyed the material. The class inspired me to apply for entrance in the George Fox University Master’s in Business Administration (MBA). I told Christine of my attention, and she encouraged me. Unfortunately, my letter and my application were rejected. I believed that I would not be a good candidate for the MBA program and was ready to forget about it; however, Christine did not. She very kindly and persuasively convinced me to really think about it and try again. Which I did and was accepted. It made all the difference in my career, my finances, and my ability to comfortably retire at 65 years old. I went from being a construction supervisor in a cable TV company to being a regional infrastructure director for a major power company. I am grateful for all I learned in my class, but more than anything I am grateful for Christine Green who has been a great teacher, mentor and spiritual guide for me and my community.” – William W. Portland, OR

“Christine skillfully helped my wife and I realize better health and wellbeing, improve our friendships and relationships, and experience greater financial abundance and creative expression as we worked together at our business of 44 years.  She skillfully listened with an affirmative acceptance as she asked the right questions.  She prayed with and for us, offered suggestions and gave us homework …  all that had us find the loving Spirit within ourselves and that made all the difference.” –  John D, Portland, OR

Celebrating Newness

“Spring is the best life coach: It gives you all the energy you want, all the positive thoughts you wish and all the boldness you need!” ― Mehmet Murat ildan

Celebrating Newness

Happy Spring!

There is something wonderful about Springtime. We emerge from the grayness of winter into a kaleidoscope of color in the spring. There is such joy in seeing the flowers blooming, hearing the birds singing, enjoying extended daylight.

Spring signifies a season of hope. We emerge out of the darkness of winter to see the transformation that springtime brings. Perhaps it is the feeling of hopefulness and expectation that things will get better.

We can cultivate that feeling of hope everyday. We don’t have to wait for springtime to arrive. We don’t have to wait for conditions to change in order for us to accept possibilities.

Ernest Holmes invites us to affirm:

“I know that Spirit within me goes before me, making perfect, straight, easy and happy the pathway of my experience. There is nothing in me that can obstruct the divine circuits of Life, of Love, of Beauty and Truth. Today I have faith that my word shall not return to me void.”

You are loved!

Do you ever wake up in the middle of the night feeling anxiety and dread, worrying about things that may or may not ever happen? Imagine what it would be like during those wake up sessions to contemplate a world of possibilities instead of thoughts of fear and dread. Imagine letting go of the worries of tomorrow and focusing on the infinite potential that await us.

Think about what the world would look like where we truly took control of our thoughts, prioritizing our desires rather than dwelling on what we do not want. While this wouldn’t magically solve all our problems, it would result in a calmer mind, a release of bodily stress, and a fresh perspective. As we see a greater potential for ourselves, we see that for others as well.

“I am seeing those before me with love. I am love through the ones I see before me.  I am Word through this intention. Word I am Word.”

“I am choosing now to recognize myself as a Divine Being in full manifestation. As I am activated in Word, I rise above this planet. I rise above the limitations of this physical world, and I claim this: I am Word through all those standing before me on this earth. I am Word through this intention. Word I am Word.”

” I am choosing to see all that I see before me in Divine Love.”
