            <link>http://christysnow.com/news.html#84</link>
            <description><![CDATA[<p><strong>Attune To The Ancients</strong></p><br /><p><strong>A Native American Flute Journey Into The Vision of Oneness</strong></p><br /><p>&nbsp;</p><br /><p>On May 3<sup>rd</sup> 2011 I entered Hollow Reed Studios in Asheville to once again have the privilege of working with the very talented Chris Rosser!&nbsp; My latest recording project is a Native American Flute CD that is a trance-like experience.&nbsp; The only instruments on the CD are Native American Flute, Native American Drum and the Didgeridoo.&nbsp; I chose the word &ldquo;Attune&rdquo; instead of Attuned as this CD is an offer of action, an invitation to the listener to attune to the ancient energy of oneness.&nbsp; You will hear the Native American Drum carry the heartbeat of mother earth and our connection to her and to all life.&nbsp; You will experience the didgeridoo, an amazing aboriginal instrument made from plant and animal (wood and termite) working together to produce this fabulous resonance.&nbsp; Most prominently you will hear the Native American Flute; symbolic of the breath of life that blows through each of us in every moment and as we each breathe the same air as the person next to us we realize we are actually connected through the very air we breathe.&nbsp; Each of these instruments speaks to the infinite and profoundly intimate connection of all life.&nbsp; The CD Attune To The Ancients came to me in a vision and I mean that quite literally.&nbsp; I was having body work done and during this massage and healing energy session I felt myself move sort of into a trance state.&nbsp; I was aware of being blissfully unaware and sort of floating in and out of thoughts and feelings.&nbsp; Then during this in between state a flash of 5 CD covers appeared in my mind&rsquo;s eye.&nbsp; I could see the titles and feel the energy of each.&nbsp; They were each very different; some prayerful vocal CDs, some folk CDs and some Native American Flute.&nbsp; There were no background influences of music playing or anything else during my energy session and I was not then nor had I been thinking about recording but none the less there they were, CD covers and titles popping into my head.&nbsp; Since Attune To The Ancients was the first title to pop into my awareness I decided it should be the first to be recorded and I began making plans for a trip to the studio.&nbsp; That was in the fall of last year.</p><br /><p>&nbsp;</p><br /><p>May 3<sup>rd</sup>, was the first day in the studio to record this new flute CD.&nbsp; This will be my 12<sup>th</sup> recording (10<sup>th</sup> CD as two of those recordings were in the days of cassettes).&nbsp; In all of my years of recording since 1990, today was probably the first time that I have ever entered a studio so completely detached from an outcome and yet purposefully, easily and beautifully guided and directed.&nbsp; It doesn&rsquo;t hurt to have Chris Rosser at the helm of the sound board as engineer; he always makes the studio work effortless.&nbsp; Then I was blessed to be joined by John Vorus playing the mesmerizing didgeridoo, his work was flawless and exactly what I wanted, even though I didn&rsquo;t really know what I wanted when we started.&nbsp;</p><br /><p>&nbsp;</p><br /><p>This CD is unfolding much like a folk song in the sense that it is a story.&nbsp; The story of creation AND evolution honoring our path of oneness.&nbsp; I believe we all came from the same God stuff and that we were born out of an ever evolving Universal energy of love and creativity and that this Infinite intelligence expresses as everyone and everything.&nbsp; Much like our evolution as a species and as a planet I believe that we each have our own internal evolution and perpetual creation story taking place and that to the degree that we can Attune To The Ancients, we can awaken to a life of limitless good and possibility.&nbsp; We can learn much by looking at the wise traditions that came before us.&nbsp; All of the world&rsquo;s religions carry within them the perennial philosophy of oneness and co-creation with a Beloved presence by many names.&nbsp; So attuning to the ancients is tuning into infinite ever present wisdom, it is tuning in to the still small voice within, it is tuning in to the oneness and connection of all life as integral parts of God&rsquo;s creation.&nbsp; Attuning to the ancients is a journey of awakening that shakes the dust of complacency off of our boots and leaves us dancing to the rhythm of life continually moving within and around us.&nbsp;</p><br /><p>&nbsp;</p><br /><p>I am grateful for this journey, for the gift of awareness and for all of you who choose to attune to the ancients with me and open up to this continually evolving process of life.&nbsp;</p><br /><p>Stay tuned....</p><br /><p>Enjoy the journey!</p><br /><p><strong>Christy</strong></p>]]></description>

            <title>Charlotte's Interfaith Thanksgiving Celebration</title>
            <link>http://christysnow.com/news.html#83</link>
            <description><![CDATA[<p>Wow!&nbsp; What an amazing night.&nbsp; Charlotte's 35th Annual Interfaith Thanksgiving Service was held on Tuesday Nov. 23rd.&nbsp; I had the honor and priviledge to deliver the Children's Message.&nbsp; I adapted a story from my friend Demetra Yuvanu's book Bejowilo's Upper House and spoke to the kids about asking for what they need believing in faith that they have already received it.&nbsp; I told the story from the view point of a&nbsp;magical and enchanting land which&nbsp;was the home of Bejowilo a wonderful woman who's name stands for Beauty, Joy, Wisdom and Love.&nbsp; The story reminded the kids, and hopefully the adults too, that what we focus on expands in our world and our job is to have faith that life and God are for us.</p><br /><p><a href="http://www.charlotteobserver.com/2010/11/24/1862673/gathering-to-share-the-blessing.html">Here's What The Charlotte Observer had to say</a> about the evening and the 1600 Charlotteans who gathered to honor and accept one another regardless of&nbsp;differences.&nbsp;</p>]]></description>

            <link>http://christysnow.com/news.html#82</link>
            <description><![CDATA[<p class="Default">In our Living In Solution Class we have been joining together with&nbsp;daily exercises of shared intention.&nbsp;&nbsp;We invite you to join us&nbsp;with the following intentions and remember this only works if you work it, but if you do I promise you the results will be startling and powerful.&nbsp; Happy adventure.&nbsp; Email me with your results if you would like to share :-) <a href="mailto:christy@christysnow.com">christy@christysnow.com</a></p><br /><p class="Default"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Mondays</span></strong> &ndash; <strong><em>Go With The Flow Day</em></strong></p><br /><p class="Default">&ldquo;In whatever way you can today, <strong>go with the flow</strong>. Do not resist or oppose. Do not control. Proceed through your day without expectations. The world seems to be a huge entity and you a very small one. But in truth the world is flowing from you. You are its source. To realize that truth, you must start to live as if it is true.</p><br /><p class="Default">&ldquo;You can think of this as an input-output exercise. When you operate out of a belief that the real world &lsquo;out there&rsquo; is pushing against you, your mental input manifests as obstacles, resistance and struggle. But if you operate from the belief that you are the source and the world is secondary, then events will move smoothly, with time and room to spare. Solutions to problems will begin to come effortlessly.</p><br /><p class="Default"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">&nbsp;</span></strong></p><br /><p class="Default"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Tuesdays</span></strong> &ndash; <strong><em>Present Moment Awareness Day</em></strong></p><br /><p class="Default">Experience the <strong>present moment</strong>.</p><br /><p class="Default">&ldquo;Right now, the present moment is full for you, but in an unreal way. It is full of memories, expectations, projected beliefs, and past conditioning. The present moment could be full in a different, far more real way, through the qualities listed &hellip;</p><br /><p class="Default"><em>Alertness&mdash;</em>being awake.</p><br /><p class="Default"><em>Openness&mdash;</em>or being free from expectations.</p><br /><p class="Default"><em>Freshness&mdash;</em>not being overshadowed by the past.</p><br /><p class="Default"><em>Innocence&mdash;</em>not judging from old experience.</p><br /><p class="Default"><em>Spontaneity&mdash;</em>allowing new impulses to come in without criticism or censorship.</p><br /><p class="Default"><em>Fearlessness&mdash;</em>the absence of traumas from the past.</p><br /><p class="Default"><em>Replenishing&mdash;</em>the capacity to renew oneself from within.&rdquo;</p><br /><p>Let your focus on being full with the present moment be on the above today!</p><br /><p>&nbsp;</p><br /><p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Wednesdays</span></strong> &ndash; <strong><em>Powerful Prayer Day</em></strong></p><br /><p class="Default">Jesus said <strong>&ldquo;Ask, and you will receive.&rdquo;</strong> In the book the Third Jesus he tells us:</p><br /><p class="Default">This may seem to be one of Jesus&rsquo; most extravagant promises. We have all asked and not received. To find out what Jesus actually meant, then, we have to answer a few questions: Who is asking? Where is the request going? Whom does it reach? For most people, the asking comes from the ego, with its unending stream of desires. The request is going out into empty space or to vaguely remembered God from childhood. The receiver of the request is unknown.</p><br /><p class="Default"><strong><em>&ldquo;What this means is that asking and receiving are disconnected</em></strong>. Indeed, they must be, because in everyday awareness the world is separate from us and fragmented into millions of isolated events. However, at a deeper level, everything is unified and whole. When you ask for anything, the One is asking the One, God is asking God. And there is always a response.</p><br /><p class="Default">&nbsp;</p><br /><p class="Default">Practice &ldquo;asking&rdquo; in a new way today.&nbsp; Let having a prayerful heart be your priority today but &ldquo;Learn to ask in a new way, by expecting every wish to bring a response. Take the attitude expressed by the Persian poet Rumi: &lsquo;Ask all of yourself.&rsquo; The mechanics of giving and receiving are inside you. Therefore, the next time you desire something, go through the following steps:</p><br /><ul><br /><li>Express the desired outcome to yourself clearly. </li><br /><li>Detach yourself from your request after you make it. </li><br /><li>Take an undemanding attitude to the outcome. </li><br /><li>Be open to whatever response the universe gives back. </li><br /><li>Know that there is always a response. </li><br /></ul><br /><p class="Default">&ldquo;In this case, &lsquo;response&rsquo; doesn&rsquo;t mean a yes or no from God. There is no judge deciding whether you are worthy or not. Those perceptions were born of separation&hellip;In the state of separation that his followers experienced, many thoughts seemed to get no response. To restore it required a new sense of self. Jesus repeatedly teaches that &lsquo;you are in God, and God is in you.&rsquo; Gradually, we can begin to experience this truth, and one of the best ways is by observing how our prayers are answered. The ways are often subtle, and they change&hellip;</p><br /><p class="Default">&ldquo;By being open and alert to these responses, some of which are inner and other outer, you escape the dichotomy of &lsquo;God healed me&rsquo; and God didn&rsquo;t heal me.&rsquo;&rdquo; Also keep in mind when you treat to claim what you REALLY want such as peace, love, harmony, and happiness rather than things.</p><br /><p class="Default">&nbsp;</p><br /><p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Thursdays</span></strong> &ndash; <strong><em>Judge Nothing Day</em></strong></p><br /><p>Experience at least 20 minutes of designated silence today; no radio, phone, TV or other distractions.&nbsp; Meditate twice as long as normal today.</p><br /><p>Practice non-judgment. &ldquo;Today I shall judge nothing that occurs.&rdquo;</p><br /><p>&nbsp;</p><br /><p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Fridays </span></strong>&ndash; <strong><em>Giving Day</em></strong></p><br /><p>Give something to each person you meet today; a compliment, a smile, or a silent prayer affirming their good.&nbsp; Be a generous receiver, graciously receiving gifts from nature and gifts from other people.&nbsp; Accept compliments and gifts without denying your worthiness.&nbsp;</p><br /><p>&nbsp;</p><br /><p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Saturdays</span></strong> &ndash; <strong><em>Conscious Choice Day</em></strong></p><br /><p>In your choice making, ask your heart for guidance and be guided by the message of comfort or discomfort you feel in your body. Follow your intuition as you make decisions consciously even if you can&rsquo;t explain WHY you are choosing it.&nbsp;</p><br /><p>&nbsp;</p><br /><p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Sundays</span></strong> &ndash; <strong><em>Synchronicity Day</em></strong></p><br /><p>Be OPEN and Expect &ldquo;God Winks&rdquo; from the Universe today.&nbsp; Look for synchronicity today, stalk it, be open to an outpouring of so much synchronicity in your life that it will make you stop and say &ldquo;WOW!&rdquo;&nbsp; This means being alert and aware and really LOOKING for it at every turn, knowing with ever glimpse of synchronicity that it is a God Wink of Good showing up for you somehow.&nbsp; Accept it before you even know HOW this is for you, just know that it is and watch the demonstrations unfold.</p>]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[<p>What an amazing experience!&nbsp; My partner Stacey &amp; I just returned from facilitating a Women&rsquo;s Retreat just east of Eugene, OR at St. Benedict&rsquo;s Lodge on the McKenzie River.&nbsp; The retreat was entitled &ldquo;Returning To The Heart&rdquo; and we returned to the heart indeed.&nbsp; Hearts were opened, love was shared, intentions set and lives changed.&nbsp; I was so filled up by the experience that I didn&rsquo;t think it could get any better, and then&hellip;..our wonderful friend and hostess Carole insisted that we were too close not to drive a few minutes out of the way and experience Koosah Falls and Sahalie Falls.&nbsp; The weather had been picturesque and downright perfect the day before but Sunday was vacillating from misting to full on rain without any sun in sight.&nbsp; Being the nature lovers we are we decided to take her up on the offer despite the wet conditions.&nbsp; As we pulled into our first stop at Koosah Falls I was overcome by the smell of the massive cedar trees, the moss and the raging river but I was unprepared for the rush of emotion and feeling of aliveness about to come as we walked to the edge and I felt my spirit soar.&nbsp; I was so overcome with emotion, with the feeling of being alive and the pure perfection of life and God that tears began to stream down my face as I looked at this amazing sight!&nbsp; As I stood there I acknowledged my gratitude to the 56 women in the retreat who opened their hearts and went into the deep well of exploring the heart with us which in turn opened me to be receptive to this moment, this God Moment!&nbsp; I stood there allowing the mist from the waterfall to mix with the mist from the sky to mix with the mist from my heart.&nbsp; Soggy and completed filled up to overflowing I stood in amazement and utter gratitude for my life and the recognition of God&rsquo;s presence in it.&nbsp; Thank you God!&nbsp; Thank you Oregon! And so it is!</p>]]></description>
