Lea Bayles:

Thank you so much, Anita. It's so great to be here

Lea Bayles:

with you. Yeah, thank you.

Anita Adams:

Yeah, I feel like you and I are entrepreneurial

Anita Adams:

sisters on the same journey, which is so cool, dude, we're

Anita Adams:

doing many of the same things and serving our clients in many

Anita Adams:

of the same ways. And I'm just so excited that we found each

Anita Adams:

other. You know, when

Unknown:

I read about you, I felt that like, oh, we have all

Unknown:

these commonalities. And yeah, I was really eager to meet you. So

Unknown:

it's so great to be starting the connection. Yeah. So

Anita Adams:

awesome. You know, I'm not in the least bit

Anita Adams:

surprised that we're we found each other, it seems and you

Anita Adams:

probably agree with this, when you are really clear about what

Anita Adams:

it is you want and how you want to serve in the world. It seems

Anita Adams:

people find you the right people find you and are you find them

Anita Adams:

and I just I feel I'm really excited about that you find your

Anita Adams:

tribe, right?

Unknown:

Yes, that serendipitous way you get into it and, and

Unknown:

unexpected miracles and happy accidents happen to bring you

Unknown:

together?

Anita Adams:

Exactly. Well, before we get into talking about

Anita Adams:

miracles and making them everyday. Can you tell us a

Anita Adams:

little bit more about your backstory, what got you to where

Anita Adams:

you are today? And specifically, I'm curious to know more about

Anita Adams:

your wake up call where you discovered your own healing

Anita Adams:

powers?

Unknown:

Well, you know, there's the story about when I got sick

Unknown:

and that well, but the one that really comes to me right now, I

Unknown:

think if you're thinking you know, as listener, as you're

Unknown:

listening to this, think of the pivotal stories in your life.

Unknown:

And sometimes we talk about one pivotal story, and I think we

Unknown:

all have lots of them. So I invite you to notice, you know,

Unknown:

maybe the one that you're most used to thinking of, but also

Unknown:

some of the others. And here's one of mine. When I was a

Unknown:

teenager, I think I was 17 It was a hot summer day, and I was

Unknown:

hanging out with friends on the edge of a river. We'd been

Unknown:

sliding down a rock, a slide rock and having a great time.

Unknown:

And I was exploring down river a little bit and I slipped off the

Unknown:

rock and fell into the river and was swept away. Immediately. I

Unknown:

left my body. Immediately I was watching from above. I had I

Unknown:

could see down below way down on the rocks, my little teenage

Unknown:

body bouncing from rock to rock, and I was up above at the

Unknown:

treetops watching and I could feel this quiet, peaceful sense

Unknown:

of connection with everything. And then suddenly, I was right

Unknown:

back in my body again, climbing up onto the rocks and my friends

Unknown:

were coming around and I went into shock coming back into my

Unknown:

body that night and ever since I've had this feeling of like a

Unknown:

Oh, yes, there's so much more. There's so much more than we are

Unknown:

usually taught we are. And, you know, and that experience of

Unknown:

suddenly being outside of my body, seeing things in a

Unknown:

different way. And feeling that deep connection and peace with

Unknown:

the world with nature was one of the things that has propelled me

Unknown:

forward that knowing there's more than we usually talk about

Unknown:

in our everyday ordinary reality. And that more carves us

Unknown:

into our more full, expanded capacities.

Unknown:

What a beautiful story, but a beautiful story.

Anita Adams:

And I imagined, I imagined it must have been

Anita Adams:

really scary in the moment to see your body drifting down the

Anita Adams:

wrong

Unknown:

area at all, no, wasn't scary at all. It was that sense

Unknown:

of like, oh, there's that little body going down there. I you

Unknown:

know, it's like that way that that we can have different

Unknown:

perspectives. And the perspective I was in with that

Unknown:

big overall watching perspective, as soon as I was

Unknown:

back on my body, I was feeling all of the physicalized things

Unknown:

without knowing that we can have different perspectives. And that

Unknown:

sometimes that happens, I don't call this a near death

Unknown:

experience. I don't think it was that close. But it had some of

Unknown:

the elements of what we call a near death, certainly an out of

Unknown:

body experience. But to realize I didn't just exist in that

Unknown:

body, somehow, in a wonderful, wondrous, mysterious way.

Unknown:

There's a part that's bigger than that. And so it wasn't

Unknown:

scary. While I was up there, seeing it was like, this great

Unknown:

sense of oneness. And so that led I think of it as Wonder

Unknown:

experiences. And I think we've all had that. Yeah.

Anita Adams:

I love that wonder experiences, I'm stealing that

Anita Adams:

they wonder experience.

Unknown:

But we can all use that wonder it's like to see, here's

Unknown:

one thing, I think we don't talk enough about our wonder

Unknown:

experiences. And I didn't talk about it much. In fact, it's

Unknown:

kind of interesting. I said something about it several years

Unknown:

ago at a family gathering, and one of my relatives said, I

Unknown:

never heard about that. I don't believe you. Because I hadn't

Unknown:

talked about it much. But the reason I hadn't talked about it

Unknown:

much was that same attitude, I don't believe you, you know, it

Unknown:

was that I held it close in my heart, and did tell not many

Unknown:

people at all. Not because I was ashamed of that, because it was,

Unknown:

I don't know, sacred and different. But I think we need

Unknown:

to tell our wonder stories, because it makes us realize that

Unknown:

we are more than the everyday reality, and that there are

Unknown:

bigger capacities that want to come through. And I think we

Unknown:

especially need them in the world today, are bigger

Unknown:

capacities that are natural, that are a natural part of us.

Unknown:

So I think it's important. Yes, please use wonder experiences,

Unknown:

you might mention me. Use that, like, let's talk about our

Unknown:

wonder experiences, let's bring them up. Let's talk about them.

Unknown:

And help remind each other that we are more than we have usually

Unknown:

been taught.

Unknown:

Wow, I love that so much. It's so beautiful. Have you?

Anita Adams:

Do you experience wonder experiences? Do you have

Anita Adams:

wonder experiences like daily?

Unknown:

Would you say? Well, I think we can. And I think living

Unknown:

in wonder is one of the best ways. You know, we're going to

Unknown:

talk later about making miracles. But I think I talk

Unknown:

about taking off your cynic goggles and opening your wonder

Unknown:

eyes. So you can even do it. Everybody can do it like

Unknown:

Stennett goggles, they like limit what we see. And that sort

Unknown:

of the attitudes that go with it. Like, oh, I know all about

Unknown:

that. Or, well, that's just kind of silly or been there done

Unknown:

that. And we have these that limit our vision, our

Unknown:

perception, we take those off, and we open our wonder eyes, and

Unknown:

we realize what an amazing world we live in. What an amazing when

Unknown:

you could do it right now you can like open your wonder eyes

Unknown:

to look at the world outside your room or in your room or

Unknown:

your body or you to other you know, when we take off the

Unknown:

goggles that limit our vision, the attitudes that keep us

Unknown:

looking small. And we look right now is a wonder experience.

Anita Adams:

I have to tell you right this moment I feel like

Anita Adams:

this little girl, this little girl that's playing with the

Anita Adams:

goggles and my hands and letting them go and I just bubble this

Anita Adams:

coming up from me it just it's beautiful. Thank you for

Anita Adams:

bringing out the childhood wonder in this moment.

Unknown:

Well and that say that you Upstate, I think is our best

Unknown:

way of being creative, and becoming visionaries and opening

Unknown:

to new possibilities for ourselves and for our beautiful

Unknown:

world. So yes, I love that you were willing to get in it and do

Unknown:

it physically and clay and feel it can and then we can begin

Unknown:

noticing what attitudes are closing our vision, what

Unknown:

attitudes are closing us to the amazing world and possibilities

Unknown:

that are there. And know that we have choice. We can take those

Unknown:

off, we can open our wonder eyes. So when you say do you

Unknown:

have wonder experiences very often? We all can. You know

Unknown:

nature, you live in an amazing place. I'm in Ireland, and you

Unknown:

know, and I live surrounded by trees. But wherever you are,

Unknown:

you're in a city. You're in a suburb wherever you are. Nature.

Unknown:

Is there the sky is there trees are there birds are there. And

Unknown:

are our lives are there so we can open. What an amazing world

Unknown:

we live in.

Anita Adams:

Yeah. Yesterday when I was on my usual walk out

Anita Adams:

through the meadow in the forest. And this is one

Anita Adams:

beautiful spot I love stopping at. It's just this little bridge

Anita Adams:

over there, this creek and it's kind of a marshy area. And

Anita Adams:

there's just so much wildlife in this area. And I just stopped

Anita Adams:

and watched the birds that were flying. And there was just one I

Anita Adams:

think was a raven, it was a pretty big black bird. And it

Anita Adams:

was just soaring in the sky. And I started to imagine that I was

Anita Adams:

that Raven, and I could feel it I could feel in my imagination

Anita Adams:

soaring through the skies and being lifted up by the draft. It

Anita Adams:

was it was just a few moments of that maybe even just a moment of

Anita Adams:

feeling that feeling that I'm up in the in the sky with this bird

Anita Adams:

being that burden. It was magical. It felt like a little

Anita Adams:

mini miracle in itself. And that in that moment.

Unknown:

I love that. You know, we talked about shape shifting

Unknown:

and shamanic work, we talk about shape shifting, and it can be

Unknown:

just that simple. We can let ourselves be taken by an image

Unknown:

that's interesting to us. That's beautiful. That's enchanting.

Unknown:

And imagine that were there. And like you said, we could all feel

Unknown:

listening to you. I need other the joy that you had and the

Unknown:

expansion. And I think to have that is kinship. And you were

Unknown:

you're creating kinship in yourself and that bird by

Unknown:

feeling that through that imaginal sense. And I believe

Unknown:

kinship is another one of those things that we most need right

Unknown:

now. For our own well being and for the well being of our

Unknown:

planet. Yes. Yeah, connect. So yes, that wonder, I love that.

Unknown:

It's a perfect example. experience that you allowed

Unknown:

yourself to have. Yeah, yeah. You create it for yourself. And

Unknown:

you could easily and probably you've done this, I do this

Unknown:

sometimes to your thinking about something or you know, worrying

Unknown:

about something when you're going on your walk and you might

Unknown:

not be as available to that. So to choose to let yourself be

Unknown:

available is wonderful. Yeah.

Anita Adams:

There's this beautiful book that I love by

Anita Adams:

Donald sorry Neale Donald Walsch Conversations with God and in it

Anita Adams:

in one of his books have that as a trilogy, I believe and he

Anita Adams:

talks about this, he doesn't use the word kinship, but I like

Anita Adams:

that word. He talks about identifying with everybody and

Anita Adams:

every thing that you come across so if you, you know you, you go

Anita Adams:

into a store and you start to think that I am that cashier. I

Anita Adams:

am that woman. I am that old man walking with his cane. I am that

Anita Adams:

street person, that homeless person and it's an interesting

Anita Adams:

exercise. I do this quite regularly and I do it with

Anita Adams:

animals and I do it was actually nature all around like I am that

Anita Adams:

tree and I just it's just a second or a couple seconds of

Anita Adams:

thinking I am that. Yes. And it's a beautiful exercise to do.

Anita Adams:

Yeah, like I believe it. It creates that kinship and that

Anita Adams:

sense of compassion.

Unknown:

That is so beautiful. I absolutely love that. I do that

Unknown:

too. And I absolutely love it and what it breaks the spell of

Unknown:

our modern society of separation and believing that we are not

Unknown:

part of nature and we are not part of the world. It breaks

Unknown:

that spell very again very quickly. You know, sometimes we

Unknown:

forget how simple these transformational things can be.

Unknown:

And I love you have said it several times just took a

Unknown:

moment. It was just a shift of attention. You know to do that

Unknown:

and what a difference it makes to realize we are all connected.

Unknown:

I love that I Am that I Am that tree. You know we are brothers

Unknown:

and sisters. We are family We are akin I am you, you know to

Unknown:

find that mirror, in a in the world of ourselves or in

Unknown:

ourselves of the world. Beautifully said, we are not

Unknown:

disconnected. And I think a lot of agree many of our problems in

Unknown:

the world today I think come from that false sense of

Unknown:

disconnection. And any other problems can be solved and

Unknown:

healed by remembering our connection. And what you gave

Unknown:

people is just such a beautiful example of a simple practice we

Unknown:

can use as many times during the dance we want. Yeah. Mother

Unknown:

Teresa talked about, you know, from her Catholic perspective as

Unknown:

a Catholic nun service worker, she talked about seeing Jesus in

Unknown:

every face, you know, and so from each perspective we can

Unknown:

have, it is a spiritual perspective. It's not, it

Unknown:

doesn't need to belong to any specific religion. But you know,

Unknown:

it's like, when you see each person as that each being as

Unknown:

that connected part as that spark of divinity, however, we

Unknown:

want to imagine it, what a shifter that is no kidding.

Anita Adams:

It's, it connects you.

Unknown:

With who we really are, we are really are connected.

Anita Adams:

Lovely. So I came across this beautiful quote, and

Anita Adams:

it was written by this lovely human being, her name is Leah

Anita Adams:

bales. In it, she says, a miracle maker mindset allows you

Anita Adams:

to see the abundant miracles that are all around you, and to

Anita Adams:

open to the bright possibilities that are wanting to happen

Anita Adams:

through you. I love this quote, Leah, can you can you elaborate

Anita Adams:

on what is the miracle makers mindset?

Unknown:

Well, I believe we get to choose, we get to choose to

Unknown:

be miracle makers. So just thinking as I was thinking

Unknown:

toward this, four C's and the first one is choose and the

Unknown:

second one is create, but the first choose, you get to choose

Unknown:

to be a miracle maker, because you are by nature by birthright,

Unknown:

you are a miracle maker. And I think we often instead choose to

Unknown:

be miracle wishers miracle Helpers, oh, I hope something

Unknown:

works out. I hope this works out. Realizing we can

Unknown:

participate in the miracle making, we can open ourselves to

Unknown:

it. And part of how we do that is to create way beyond a

Unknown:

positive mindset, you know, is a miracle maker mindset. How do we

Unknown:

and and what you quoted, so Well, I probably won't even say

Unknown:

it quite as well, myself is a miracle makers mindset, let us

Unknown:

be open to the miracles that are here right now, just like we've

Unknown:

been talking about. And it opens us to the bright possibilities.

Unknown:

We've taken off those goggles, we've taken off the Senate

Unknown:

goggles, we're believing bigger, we, I believe possibilities are

Unknown:

always trying to happen through us into the world. And miracles

Unknown:

are trying to happen through us into the world, but many of our

Unknown:

kind of normal ways, or normal ways of thinking ways in this

Unknown:

culture of thinking, block those. So I have a whole series

Unknown:

of little videos like miracle maker mindset. And what do we

Unknown:

how do we do that little ways we shift. And so one is we take off

Unknown:

the goggles, and we see what's here. The easiest way to make

Unknown:

miracles every single day is to notice what's around you notice

Unknown:

the amazing world that is around you right now. Being present,

Unknown:

being present, being present, with a playful sort of spirit,

Unknown:

as everyone's around you talk with people that are a little

Unknown:

serious about being present. I just play with it. Let's play

Unknown:

with it and see him and then open to the little things. I

Unknown:

mean, we have flowers growing, we have birds, all these things

Unknown:

that are really miraculous in the sense of being wondrous and

Unknown:

amazing. And so we don't need to limit ourselves. So, you know,

Unknown:

one miracle maker mindset thing is to look for the amazing,

Unknown:

wonderful things around you right now. I'm I mean, I don't

Unknown:

have any idea how people made my microphone or my glass or you

Unknown:

know how these flowers grew or and, you know, those are all

Unknown:

gifts that happen and and another way we play with miracle

Unknown:

maker mindset is to reset your reticular activating system,

Unknown:

which is a part of your brain or the RAS and I'm sure lots of

Unknown:

you've heard about that and either you've heard about that.

Unknown:

But it's the part of your brain that looks for what we tell it

Unknown:

to look for. Hmm, right. It collects evidence for what we

Unknown:

believe up, which is why whatever we believe gets

Unknown:

stronger and stronger and stronger, because our brain

Unknown:

says, oh, that's what she wants to believe. That's what she

Unknown:

wants me to look for. So I'm going to find evidence for that

Unknown:

example. If a woman has the feeling that she can't trust any

Unknown:

men, all men are untrustworthy, that is almost certainly the

Unknown:

only kind of man she's going to find. Wow, yes. Our brain brings

Unknown:

that to us. You know, and we, they come to us, the reticular

Unknown:

activating system looks for that. A really simple way. A lot

Unknown:

of people have used examples like this, of how our reticular

Unknown:

reticular activating system works. If you're at a party, and

Unknown:

it's noisy, and you can't really hear much around you, but

Unknown:

someone across the room says your name, your brain thinks

Unknown:

that's important, and it will pick it up. Ever notice that

Unknown:

happening? Yeah, absolutely. Across the chatter at you'll

Unknown:

hear your name, because your reticular activating system

Unknown:

says, oh, Anita is that name. And Anita is important, not

Unknown:

better listen to it. It filters out everything else, because we

Unknown:

can't pay attention to everything. So it filters

Unknown:

everything else out except what we think is important. When I

Unknown:

was pregnant. Suddenly, I saw pregnant women all around when I

Unknown:

bought a white Yeah. And I suddenly saw white vans all

Unknown:

around. They weren't more prevalent, but my brain now

Unknown:

believed they were important. Mm hmm. So the reason this as

Unknown:

important as because when we have beliefs, we hold on to

Unknown:

them, because we keep getting evidence of them. If I believe,

Unknown:

let's have a belief like, well, it's partly how prejudice

Unknown:

happens. If we believe a certain thing about a group of people.

Unknown:

And we believe that to be true, our brain will look for evidence

Unknown:

of it, and it will filter out the other things. So

Anita Adams:

if we look for miracles, we'll see more

Anita Adams:

miracles we look for

Unknown:

Yeah, we if we look for miracles, we start seeing them.

Unknown:

If we look for things, we look for miracles not being real and

Unknown:

being foolish, and being a waste of time. That's what we'll see.

Unknown:

Okay, cool.

Anita Adams:

So that brings me to a question I have that that

Anita Adams:

cropped up in a book I was reading last night, I'm reading

Anita Adams:

this beautiful book come called The Wisdom way of knowing by

Anita Adams:

Cynthia Burgo. And she references the gospels that

Anita Adams:

report that Jesus could do no miracles in his hometown of

Anita Adams:

Nazareth, because the people there could only see him as a

Anita Adams:

carpenter son. And I just thought that was so interesting.

Anita Adams:

It could he and I'm wondering, you know, could he not perform

Anita Adams:

miracles? Because there was not enough belief around him? Or did

Anita Adams:

he choose not to perform miracles in his hometown?

Anita Adams:

Because the people would not recognize them as miracles? If

Anita Adams:

he did? And it also made me wonder, is there an energy to

Anita Adams:

miracles? And if more people believe in them, does that

Anita Adams:

energy grow, to create even more or bigger miracles? Do you have

Anita Adams:

any thoughts about any of those? I

Unknown:

think those are all great questions. I mean, I

Unknown:

think, yeah, great. I love again, hanging out in those

Unknown:

thing, you know, and and so I think, to the final question, do

Unknown:

when more of us are open to miracles and letting miracles

Unknown:

come through us? Do they happen more often? I would say, almost

Unknown:

certainly, that seems to me like that would be true. And I have

Unknown:

felt that to be true. When you're in a group of people who

Unknown:

is interested in looking for miracles, from little miracles

Unknown:

to big miracles, they definitely happen more often. I don't think

Unknown:

I think, oh, go ahead.

Anita Adams:

Well, I'm just that kind of comes back to where we

Anita Adams:

started at the beginner beginning when you said we

Anita Adams:

should share our wonder experiences, because they were

Anita Adams:

making more people aware of the magic or the miracles. And if we

Anita Adams:

talk about it more, it brings it to the forefront of our

Anita Adams:

attention. And we start seeing them more,

Unknown:

right, resetting the reticular activating system.

Anita Adams:

Fascinating. So we need to talk about those one.

Anita Adams:

Yeah. And

Unknown:

you know, what I often find like, I've told that story

Unknown:

of falling into the river and being swept away several times

Unknown:

at conferences or different things. And every single time

Unknown:

people come up to me and say, I thought I was the only one that

Unknown:

had that I thought I was weird. I and many people believe you

Unknown:

know, they've had some unexplainable experience, you

Unknown:

know, an experience that I would think is amazing. And they've

Unknown:

thought they were weird, or they were told they were weird. And

Unknown:

they get it they hit it so we shut down that part of

Unknown:

ourselves. That is connected. You know, like you were very

Unknown:

free talking about how you're like I am the tree and I am the

Unknown:

bird and you know, some people have a hard time with that.

Anita Adams:

Well, I did a couple years ago I would not

Anita Adams:

have to talked about where we go,

Unknown:

yeah. And especially when children grow up relating

Unknown:

some of those experiences in families where it's not okay. Or

Unknown:

even the parents just think it's their duty to make sure the

Unknown:

child understands reality, quote, reality, you know, then

Unknown:

that gets shut down and the kids can even feel like there's

Unknown:

something wrong with them. And many of us grew up thinking, you

Unknown:

know, I think in our culture, we marginalize the invisible, we

Unknown:

marginalize or downplay or denigrate the soul qualities.

Unknown:

And so for the two of us that people probably you listening,

Unknown:

you know, believe in soul qualities know that soul

Unknown:

qualities are really important know that the invisible things,

Unknown:

imagination and dreaming and wonder, and miracles are really

Unknown:

important. And yet our culture, minimalize is in marginalized

Unknown:

systems. So we're taking them back.

Anita Adams:

I feel like that's shifting.

Unknown:

Yes. Yes, I do. I think it definitely is.

Anita Adams:

Yeah. Yeah. And it's one of the reasons why I

Anita Adams:

think there's doing this podcast and you and I, you and I are

Anita Adams:

doing similar work. Because we want to make a bigger shift, we

Anita Adams:

want more people to recognize and tap into the miracles, the

Anita Adams:

magic, the wonder,

Unknown:

the deep powers we have that we are not aware of the

Unknown:

power to heal each other and ourselves in the planet, the

Unknown:

power to make connections between species, you know, the

Unknown:

power to be more creative than we realize we have been.

Unknown:

Yeah. It's so

Anita Adams:

wonderful. And it's, you've used the word being

Anita Adams:

in wonder a lot. And we talk about that a lot on the show as

Anita Adams:

well, you need to be in wonder, and what a, what a wonderful way

Anita Adams:

to be is to be in wonder, right?

Unknown:

Look at the world

Anita Adams:

in a childlike wonder. I love that.

Unknown:

So we can shift into that curiosity, like, in fact,

Unknown:

my teachers can Katie Hendricks have a wonderful practice that

Unknown:

they teach that super simple, and it's wonder questions. And

Unknown:

you say, Hmm, I wonder, I wonder how I could do this differently

Unknown:

for a better outcome. Or, hmm, I wonder how I might shift this,

Unknown:

or, you know, any way that you can use it, but it really helps

Unknown:

us shift from that place of like, being overly focused on

Unknown:

figuring it out and being in an intellectual place into a more

Unknown:

spacious open state of mind and body, where more possibilities

Unknown:

come in. So yeah, great shift.

Anita Adams:

I'm writing about that very thing. Right now, I'm

Anita Adams:

working on my book, and I'm writing a chapter about

Anita Adams:

surrender. And I pose that very thing, like when you're

Anita Adams:

confronted with a challenge, and you can choose, you can choose

Anita Adams:

to brace yourself and fight against it, or you can choose to

Anita Adams:

be in wonder. And the Wonder is actually, it's kind of

Anita Adams:

surrendering, it's surrendering to everything, and choosing to

Anita Adams:

be in wonder about what's going to happen next. And that so it's

Anita Adams:

a gentle way, a gentle opening of your heart, and being able to

Anita Adams:

move forward to see what the possibilities might be. It's I

Anita Adams:

just I love. I love exploring surrender, because I feel like

Anita Adams:

that's something I need to work on. That's probably why I'm

Anita Adams:

writing about it. surrender, surrender, you know, and it's,

Anita Adams:

it's a big part of any spiritual journey as well. It's turning

Anita Adams:

out it's

Unknown:

very important. And I think it's important to to

Unknown:

differentiate between giving up, which sometimes people do you

Unknown:

know, sometimes, I know, that's not at all what you're saying.

Unknown:

And I think it's important to remember, you know, sometimes he

Unknown:

goes, Well, I don't want to give up. I'm like, why don't keep

Unknown:

doing this. It's like very different. And you even

Unknown:

expressed it in your gestures, you were like, opening opening

Unknown:

to something bigger, letting go of the forcefulness and the

Unknown:

pushing and opening to something bigger. So really a huge, big,

Unknown:

fun piece of it.

Anita Adams:

Sometimes it doesn't feel fun in the moment.

Anita Adams:

You can shift the attitude and make it fun for sure. All right,

Anita Adams:

you

Unknown:

share I think part of this surrendering the part

Unknown:

what's fun is remember, Oh, I'm not alone. I'm not doing this

Unknown:

all by myself. I don't have to figure it out. In my small brain

Unknown:

in my small you know, the big heart however, whatever our

Unknown:

belief system is, you know, that bigger mind the bigger heart

Unknown:

that is there that I can tap into and that to me are

Unknown:

surrendering to and also surrendering that idea of like,

Unknown:

what I think is supposed to happen. Almost always when we do

Unknown:

that, don't you find like we surrender that something bigger

Unknown:

is that

Anita Adams:

goes up. Yeah, it's amazing when you can detach from

Anita Adams:

Have your perceived outcomes or desired outcomes and, and just

Anita Adams:

surrender to the process. It is it is a process. It is a

Anita Adams:

journey. And it takes practice to do that I and I am constantly

Anita Adams:

having to work on myself to surrender and I love that I love

Anita Adams:

how I'm learning and leaning into that practice a lot more I

Anita Adams:

look forward to becoming a master might not happen until

Anita Adams:

I'm like 99 or whatever, maybe, maybe in another lifetime, and

Anita Adams:

I'm enjoying the journey.

Unknown:

Absolutely. I know, I think one of my teachers said

Unknown:

we're all shamans and we're all stupid. No matter who, how we

Unknown:

are on the planet, you know, it's like we all have moments of

Unknown:

like, transcendence and understandings. And moments,

Unknown:

we're just kind of like, Oh, what am I doing? You know. And

Unknown:

I, that's part of the beauty of it, it is

Anita Adams:

it is part of the beauty. And it's those moments

Anita Adams:

that I keep seeking, you know, those moments of transcendence,

Anita Adams:

those moments of connecting with that bird soaring in the sky,

Anita Adams:

the moments of connecting with other people and beings and

Anita Adams:

situations, and just stepping into, I just want to create more

Anita Adams:

of those moments. And I am and because of this conscious

Anita Adams:

intention to choose coming back to your word choosing to create

Anita Adams:

something. So you shared another quote by Gandhi that says, there

Anita Adams:

is a force in the universe, which if we permit, it will flow

Anita Adams:

through us to produce miraculous results. What do you believe, is

Anita Adams:

that force and high and

Unknown:

that's one of my favorite all time quotes. So I

Unknown:

believe it's the creative force of love in the universe, you

Unknown:

know, and that grows this forsythia and grows all of us

Unknown:

and that we can tap into, people might call it by different

Unknown:

names. And that doesn't really matter. To me. What matters is

Unknown:

it's something right here right now, we can always tap into. And

Unknown:

I know you've had this, some of the quotes that you've made, and

Unknown:

then some others I put together that are in your resources list.

Unknown:

I forget what to call that your toolbox. toolbox. Yeah, well,

Unknown:

yeah, cool. And, you know, I teach people how to shift which

Unknown:

when we shift out of push power, we shift out of thinking that we

Unknown:

are the one who's got to make it happen, we're pushing and we

Unknown:

shift into not giving up, but allowing this bigger energy to

Unknown:

move through us and help us do it. So it's like the difference

Unknown:

between having to push some push the river to make it happen and

Unknown:

be in the river flowing with it to let it happen. So river of

Unknown:

lifeforce we can call it. It's a little hard to find a word for

Unknown:

it, but we all know it. Yeah, we all know that experience,

Unknown:

everyone. We've all had the experience where even just for a

Unknown:

few moments, we're like, where did that come from that idea,

Unknown:

maybe I'm bet sometimes when you're writing a book, and

Unknown:

either you've got like, it's like, you're almost like you

Unknown:

fall away. And the book begins for at least a few moments,

Unknown:

maybe writing itself where it gives you the ideas of what it

Unknown:

wants. And so those were when we permit it. There is a force that

Unknown:

will flow through us to produce miraculous results. Years ago, I

Unknown:

was helping to teach at a yoga retreat, or a yoga yoga therapy

Unknown:

program at the Mount Madonna retreat center. And one day, was

Unknown:

a very, very hot afternoon, was a group of men out building a

Unknown:

rock wall, there were people who lived there at the community,

Unknown:

and we're building a rock wall. Most of them were very young men

Unknown:

in their late 20s, early 30s, very strong, vigorous, one man

Unknown:

was barely five feet tall. And he was very, very thin. And he

Unknown:

was in his 70s. And he was outworking all of the big,

Unknown:

strong young men. He could lift rocks, as if they were Boulder,

Unknown:

or boulders, big rocks as if they were feathers and place

Unknown:

them in place. And he worked with this smooth, effortless

Unknown:

grace and calm. And in the evening that night, I was

Unknown:

sitting in the dining room. And some of the young men who've

Unknown:

been working with him came out there say get out like, oh, man,

Unknown:

all day long. We're working. We're sweating. You're so tired.

Unknown:

We're into the day we're exhausted Balaji they call them

Unknown:

poverty. Never breaks a sweat. He works harder. He gets more

Unknown:

done than all of us. But he's doing it in a different way.

Unknown:

Baba Ji is working in a whole different way. Man, he's working

Unknown:

with energy. Barbati knew how to let the energy come through so

Unknown:

he could work with it to build the rock wall. Now we all have

Unknown:

that capacity. While they are building a rock wall. You can do

Unknown:

it from force. You can do it from effort. You can do it by

Unknown:

being the conduit for that A force that creates miraculous

Unknown:

results to come through. And we can all learn to do that.

Anita Adams:

I want to know, how do you have a secret says share?

Anita Adams:

Or

Unknown:

do I have a way, you know, if again, it's I mentioned

Unknown:

it on the handout that is in your toolbox I have, in this

Unknown:

whole big life treasure trove, there is something that's called

Unknown:

the 62nd shift from push power to flow power. And it's five

Unknown:

steps that people go through energetically that can happen in

Unknown:

less than a minute. And you know, of course, that's

Unknown:

something I work with private clients to bid, it's right there

Unknown:

in the report, I encourage you to it's free, it's there on the

Unknown:

handout that Anita has included of mine in her toolbox. And I

Unknown:

encourage you to sign up for that the 62nd shift, and you

Unknown:

know, begin to play with it. I was talking to a client last

Unknown:

week who was work is a professor and she's working on a book. And

Unknown:

she said she calls it metabolic grind power, you know, I call it

Unknown:

push power, but it's like your gears just in that. Notice

Unknown:

called the clench mode when she gets into that clench mode. And

Unknown:

then when she learned it in the way we've talked about to shift

Unknown:

out of it. And so one of the ways we can see that we're in

Unknown:

that like, we're really trying hard, we tense, our body is

Unknown:

tense, our eyes tense, we're working, we're pushing hard, we

Unknown:

think that's the best way to get things done, and it works

Unknown:

against us. So it's the process of letting that go. And letting

Unknown:

ourselves open into a bigger flow that can happen through us.

Unknown:

It's not giving up on our big goals and dreams. It's doing

Unknown:

them more like Baba Ji was building that rock wall. And she

Unknown:

said, I can't believe how much difference that makes. So she

Unknown:

said, sometimes her brain will go, No, I've got to push that to

Unknown:

get this done. And she said, As soon as she went through that

Unknown:

shift, what a difference it makes that I you know, people

Unknown:

from all walks of life, whatever we're creating, we can do in

Unknown:

that way of flow power, instead of push power.

Anita Adams:

I love that. I yeah, I will check that out more

Anita Adams:

myself, because I am somebody, I'm a type personality, you

Anita Adams:

know, I'm competitive, I'd like to get things I'm very, I'm

Anita Adams:

ambitious, I'm driven. I love what I do. And I try to I push

Anita Adams:

myself sometimes too hard. And a big reason why I started

Anita Adams:

walking, do my daily walks in the forest was to let go of all

Anita Adams:

that, you know, just trying to calm the mind trying to calm the

Anita Adams:

body. And to be more in flow, it is a very conscious thing that I

Anita Adams:

have to keep reminding myself to do because I am hard, why

Anita Adams:

hardwired to push. And I find it really challenging to often let

Anita Adams:

go of that, that push that drives

Unknown:

me well. And you know, that's what we're taught to do.

Unknown:

And it works up to a point up to a point did you break down and

Unknown:

cry, except to a point and then it's exhausting is and it will

Unknown:

never take us to where we really want to go?

Anita Adams:

Yeah, yeah. And I know, like I can point to times

Anita Adams:

in my life. And there have been many times in my life where

Anita Adams:

I've, I have successfully let go and been in that flow. And I'm

Anita Adams:

amazed at what has happened. You know, so I, so I've experienced

Anita Adams:

it many times, and I still have to keep reminding myself to just

Anita Adams:

be in that that river be in that flow.

Unknown:

And that totally makes sense. And also, I think that we

Unknown:

have to convince ourself that it doesn't mean we're just gonna go

Unknown:

lay in a hammock all day, which but you know, it doesn't mean

Unknown:

you have to like give up all of your goals and dreams to be able

Unknown:

to do it, it means that it's a better way to do them. And, you

Unknown:

know, it's it's breaking for most of us. It's breaking a

Unknown:

really big pattern. You know, I just briefly that's how I got

Unknown:

had the immune system crash in my early 30s. I would say

Unknown:

though, that you mentioned earlier, I was in grad school, I

Unknown:

had three little children. I was volunteering at the school, I

Unknown:

was babysitting other people's kids, I was going from my big

Unknown:

goals and dreams the way I thought it was supposed to,

Unknown:

which is pushing and pushing, I got sick, I kept pushing, I was

Unknown:

tired, I kept pushing, I pushed and pushed and pushed until I

Unknown:

woke up in the middle of the night. And my heart was going

Unknown:

boom, boom, boom, boom. Well, it was terrifying. It was

Unknown:

terrifying. And yet I thought I wonder if I should wake my

Unknown:

husband up and I didn't you know, because I was self

Unknown:

reliant. I was gonna deal with it and, and then I woke up the

Unknown:

next morning, I could not move. I felt like a truck had run over

Unknown:

me. And I you know, took me a long time to recover. And it was

Unknown:

one of the best things that ever happened to me.

Anita Adams:

Yeah, that wake up call. That call. Yeah.

Unknown:

Yeah. And it took me into studying the things that I

Unknown:

then learned for myself and to heal help other people learn to

Unknown:

heal themselves. I worked for 20 Some years as a holistic Mind

Unknown:

Body therapist and created wellness programs for hospital

Unknown:

systems, lots of different stuff. And now I use those same

Unknown:

mind body, holistic energy healing techniques for people to

Unknown:

be more creative for people to be more, you know, satisfied in

Unknown:

their lives. People who create the lives that delight, their

Unknown:

souls are still using those same things. It's not using them in a

Unknown:

hospital with people with chronic pain. I'm using them for

Unknown:

big hearted, high achievers for people who have a lot they want

Unknown:

to create in the world, and they are pushing to do it. And we can

Unknown:

do it differently and be more effective and much more joyful

Unknown:

on this journey.

Anita Adams:

Absolutely. I want to I want to bring it back to

Anita Adams:

talking about making miracles every day. We identified that

Anita Adams:

being in wondered and removing the cynical goggles is a key

Anita Adams:

part to making miracles. Is there? Is there anything else

Anita Adams:

that we can do on a maybe even on a daily basis to strengthen

Anita Adams:

our miracle making abilities?

Unknown:

Oh, one thing I think I mentioned, the four C's. So the

Unknown:

first is choose, you're going to choose I am a miracle maker. But

Unknown:

you know, be participating in that. And then there's creating

Unknown:

and creating a miracle mindset, how what is what allows us to

Unknown:

open to more miracles. So we look at that. And the third is

Unknown:

clear away what's in what's blocking. And some of that is

Unknown:

noticing attitudes, attitudes, of cynicism, attitudes of being

Unknown:

overly realistic. Also, getting caught in the dailiness our

Unknown:

daily life is beautiful, and wonderful and amazing. And I

Unknown:

love it. And we can get so caught. In that we forget to

Unknown:

have the bigger picture. And so we notice I have my facility a

Unknown:

little too close to me. She and I are dancing here. She thinks

Unknown:

she wants to gesture also. So that you know that what is in

Unknown:

the way of it, sometimes it's just we can get ground down by

Unknown:

the dailiness. Yesterday, I spent many hours on the phone on

Unknown:

the phone with I'm trying to figure out an email problem. And

Unknown:

it even got worse and worse this morning. So those daily things

Unknown:

we all deal with sometimes can grind us down. And we can choose

Unknown:

to clear those away bad things happen. And we choose to also

Unknown:

find the miracle in it. So we notice what's in the way.

Unknown:

Perfectionism is a great thing that gets in the way, self

Unknown:

doubt, you know, and that we lovingly notice these parts and

Unknown:

work with them to clear them. I have a journaling practice that

Unknown:

I offer. I teach a lot of my clients and students and it's

Unknown:

it's a variation I have actually I borrowed it and kind of

Unknown:

changed it from something melody Beatty does. And it's similar to

Unknown:

morning pages, which I think you do. But one of the focuses is

Unknown:

gratitude. And probably everyone listening to your show has done

Unknown:

gratitude journals, there's a little twist to it, you do it

Unknown:

first thing in the morning, because that's when like things

Unknown:

are really really fresh. I'm grateful. And then I'm even

Unknown:

grateful for the yucky emotions. I'm even grateful for the

Unknown:

emotions that are uncomfortable. I call them the yucky emotions

Unknown:

because that's how they feel to me. And it right here in this

Unknown:

sheet melody Beatty does it like talked about doing it for 10

Unknown:

minutes. And that's what I suggest to my clients. But it's

Unknown:

like a venting. And it's because we tend to those of us who are

Unknown:

positive. You and me and your listeners, those of us who are

Unknown:

wanting to create a better world and want to live in joy, how the

Unknown:

tendency often to push down the quote negative emotions. And

Unknown:

when we actually invite them in with kindness. And we even

Unknown:

grateful for those because they are part of being alive. They

Unknown:

are there in a way that will guide us and so it's an energy

Unknown:

that gets released. And this is a more there's a lot more we

Unknown:

could say about this. But just as a very brief thing. It's just

Unknown:

inviting even those yucky emotions, and they tend to be

Unknown:

more present in the moment. A couple of days ago, I was

Unknown:

feeling very discouraged about something and I would prefer not

Unknown:

to look at it. However I know if I do let it come up and I bring

Unknown:

it into a field of kindness. And I let those feelings what they

Unknown:

feel it feels like in my body to feel discouraged. Let that come

Unknown:

through. When I jotted down, there's a clearing that happens.

Unknown:

When that clearing happens, we are more open again, to the

Unknown:

possibilities that want to happen in our life, we're more

Unknown:

open to that river of energy that wants to flow through to

Unknown:

create great results, miraculous results. So that clearing

Unknown:

process is important.

Anita Adams:

Hmm, beautiful. I really love that I think we can

Anita Adams:

learn so much from those dark places to where those emotions

Anita Adams:

and and be in wonder about them as well. I like the idea of

Anita Adams:

embracing them with kindness and inviting them in love. What a

Anita Adams:

beautiful way of visualizing your emotions and how you want

Anita Adams:

to treat with them treat them.

Unknown:

I think of them sometimes as like, these little,

Unknown:

like, kind of slimy creatures we put down in the cellar. Really

Unknown:

dark and they haven't we opened the doors and come on into the

Unknown:

kitchen. Oh, come on in, you know, and as soon as they shift,

Unknown:

you know? So come on. Yeah. And because they really do have

Unknown:

energy for us. Yeah,

Anita Adams:

I'm gonna play with that some more Thank you. Just

Anita Adams:

want some clarity, we've got use of the four C's Choose, choose

Anita Adams:

to make miracles. creat create a miracle mindset. Clear away the

Anita Adams:

blocks. What was the fourth that I

Unknown:

missed that, oh, we haven't said it yet. It's

Unknown:

celebrate great to me is one of my favorite words. And I think

Unknown:

of celebration as a form of gratitude. You know, we're

Unknown:

grateful for what we've been able to accomplish. We're

Unknown:

grateful for what we have. And we celebrate it. And we find

Unknown:

ways to do that. And the more we celebrate the goodness that has

Unknown:

come to our world, the beauty that we see, you know it the

Unknown:

more more comes in, there was a great movie A few years ago. And

Unknown:

I love the title as much as the movie, it was called happy.

Unknown:

Thank you more, please.

Anita Adams:

Awesome. I haven't heard that. I'm gonna have to

Anita Adams:

look for it. Happy.

Unknown:

Healthy. Thank you more, please. And you know, that

Unknown:

is a great mantra. You're happy with what you have what you

Unknown:

already have. You're giving gratitude for it? And you're

Unknown:

saying yes, More, please. Because I think sometimes we get

Unknown:

caught. Some people get caught in the place of like, I want

Unknown:

more, I need more, I need more. And I forget to be grateful,

Unknown:

which we need some of us, which is more for me, and maybe for

Unknown:

you, too, are more like, Oh, I'm so grateful. How could I ask for

Unknown:

anything more? You know, I have so much why would I ever need

Unknown:

more? And, and so to be like, open in this, like, you know,

Unknown:

it's like, happy? Thank you more, please. Yeah, because the

Unknown:

more we open to that, the more we have in our life, and the

Unknown:

more we have to share,

Anita Adams:

that is going to be my new mantra.

Unknown:

It's definitely one of my favorites. And so is that

Unknown:

living in that celebratory state and, you know, celebrating, I

Unknown:

think rather than looking at like what you didn't get done at

Unknown:

the end of the day, celebrating whatever you did get done, even

Unknown:

however minor it is, I like never really get done with my to

Unknown:

do list. But I do try to remember to celebrate what did

Unknown:

get done. Brilliant. And I find too, that many people that I

Unknown:

work with have a hard time celebrating their own

Unknown:

achievements. And when we can think of it as a form of

Unknown:

gratitude, because our gifts, I believe are bestowed upon us.

Unknown:

And so it's our job, to bring those gifts to the world as

Unknown:

fully as we can get out of the way we do what we can to bring

Unknown:

those gifts to the world. And we celebrate them not as a form of

Unknown:

self aggrandizement, but as gratitude that we have these and

Unknown:

that we're able to bring them into the world.

Unknown:

Beautiful.

Anita Adams:

So many, so many nuggets of wisdom in this

Anita Adams:

conversation. I have one last question for you, Leah. The big

Anita Adams:

picture vision for the joyful journey podcast is to heighten

Anita Adams:

the collective consciousness and to harmonize humanity. What is

Anita Adams:

one thing you think we can do as individuals to raise our

Anita Adams:

vibration so we can access our highest self and move closer to

Anita Adams:

achieving this goal?

Unknown:

Well, one of the things we can do individually and

Unknown:

collectively as part of the miracle maker mindset is begin

Unknown:

thinking of the world. We would love to live in. What is the

Unknown:

world we would love to create? And we think of that for

Unknown:

ourselves. And then we think what are the steps today I take

Unknown:

toward that? But I think it's really important that I'm so

Unknown:

glad you brought this up, to think of it collectively. What

Unknown:

is the world I want to live in. It's so easy to think up. I

Unknown:

can't believe this is happening. And this is happening. It's so

Unknown:

awful. When we go into what is the world, I want to help

Unknown:

create, what is the world I want to live in? I want my children,

Unknown:

my grandchildren, that grandchildren of all species to

Unknown:

live in what is that world? And what? No. And that just

Unknown:

envisioning, that is important. Envisioning and again talking

Unknown:

about it, we talk about it with people, what is the world you

Unknown:

envision? What is the world I envision when we open to

Unknown:

possibilities? And then we also ask, what is my step today

Unknown:

toward that? It may be very small. Yeah, what right it may

Unknown:

be a way of being, it may be an action, it may be a letter may

Unknown:

be something we do, you know, that feels like an outward

Unknown:

action, it may be a way of being. And we because we are all

Unknown:

creating that future together. Whether we're aware of it or

Unknown:

not. Absolutely.

Anita Adams:

Beautiful. Beautiful. Thank you so much,

Anita Adams:

Leah. I absolutely loved our conversation today. And I feel

Anita Adams:

like we could sit and talk for hours and hours and hours. All

Anita Adams:

About the Podcast

Joyful Journey
If you are a leader, be it a leader of self or a leader of many, who strives to be a force for good in the world, or if you are someone who is simply uncertain about what you really want and why it matters, then this podcast is for you!
The Joyful Journey Podcast is about finding clarity about who we choose to be and the life we want to live. It’s about tapping into our inner wisdom and accessing our highest selves so we make choices that are aligned with who we are and what matters most to us. By accessing our highest selves we also make choices that are best for our families, our communities and the organizations we represent.
Perhaps most important of all, by learning to tap into inner wisdom and access our highest self, we raise our vibration, unleash a great joy and heighten the collective consciousness.
That, my friends, is world changing and it all starts with you and me!
Welcome to the Joyful Journey Podcast.
