Breakthrough!
oh, wow, it's been a crazy month, with a lot of stuff happening. I got an email last night from Bart who called out a 6:00 a.m. at the Golden Gate bridge this morning. Wow, so much time has passed since my last 6:00 am sunrise bridge gathering, I just had to go and represent Act X. I called Corey, who as usual was stuck on "well, can I?" Sheesh, it's the past, of course you can, just say so, silly!
So we all met at the bridge. Aaron was there of course representing Act I. He of course drove with Patty. As usual Patty ignores me which just turns my stomach each time. I know, she loves Aaron, and they are good friends, and it would really make Aaron much happier if we could find a way to meet half way in our friendship. So at the end when Bart inspires us to think about the Golden Gate bridge and what we commit to creating in our life today, and the lives around us, I chose forgiveness. It seems to be the word of the month for me anyway. But then, who to forgive? Oh, yes, Patty. So I approached her and asked her if there was anything I have done or created within her that she feels that he door to friendship is just not open to me, and she swears there isn't. She appreciated the feedback, we hugged and committed to trying to create a friendship. It felt good to try to bridge the gap, standing on the foot of the Golden Gate bridge. The sunrise was awesome!!
Corey and Doug were there and we chatted for awhile about breakthroughs in our lives. Corey realized that he had a lot of "mom" issues deeply hidden when I shared with him my revelation about women, trust, betrayal and my mom. He said having that conversation with him, created a huge breakthrough about his own mom and what Lynne creates within him.
It was good to be involved in ACT again, I have to say. I'm thinking of staffing, if the opportunity presents itself in the near future. I've held tightly that I never would, but now I'm considering...anything is possible. The opportunity to stand for some in their greatness is now a gift, not the burden I held it just two short years ago.
The center is coming together. Aaron amazed me yesterday, again falling back into love with him in a way that I had only experienced with him the first time around. Except now it's so much more sweeter, more depth behind it, not just the initial fluttery stuff. :)
Claudia, the massage therapist tenant at the Wellness Center, and I are fast becoming friends, mentors and business partners. She's very bright, one of those networking kinda gals. She invited me to a women's networking breakfast over in Danville next Friday morning and I'm going to try to find a way to make it there and get Jake off to school. I don't know how, but I know it's important, so I'll make it happen somehow.
Did I mention by trip to Florida? I decided to get official certification in colon hydrotherapy, and took an advanced colon hydrotherapy class at the Wood institute. (Which I turned into a client when I mentioned it would be great if they had a website.) I walked away with just a wealth of new information, new techniques, more business insights and what's going on in the healing world. Did you know American spent $15 billion on alternative care last year? Out of their own pockets. A health organization is creating a prevention medical plan that will include colonics, accupuncture, chiropractic, etc. This follows in line with what Aaron has mentioned to me about aligning myself with Kaiser to get them to make colon hydrotherapy a part of their wellness plans they are experimenting with. With the device being FDA approved Class 1 (self-administered, non-professioanl use), he's right, it's very possible. Note to self: create a referal list and introdue myself to physicians and alt care practitioners in the area.
I also began reflecting where my passion lies in this, because my partners have me working on budget stuff and creating value. My core value needed to be solidified again to helping people. If I lost all my money, if I could just help one person live a more vibrant life, then the satisifaction alone could pay my bills. Well, at least for a little while. But I look how signfiicantly I have simplified my life so that I can do what I love, be proud of what I do, and just to help others. I wouldn't change it for anything.
OK, Jake is addicted to WoW. I need to cancel the account soon, I know. But right now, WoW is his babysitter and while I'm running around trying to get things together it's been a godsend to have him distracted for a bit without having to drag him around everywhere with me.
I'll handle that next month.
Time to run the doggy.
