I have been meaning to write out this, one of my most favorite Easy World experiences, for many months, and finally did that today. Enjoy!
=========
One of my most dramatic Easy World stories occurred early this past September as my husband, Rick, and I, plus our two dachshunds, were headed up to Lake Michigan from our home in Denver, Colorado. We were more than ready for a totally relaxing, 2-week stay at my sister's wonderful old Victorian-era cottage that sits only a few steps from the shore of the lake. We were driving our Honda Odyssey van, which we'd had thoroughly checked over by our neighborhood mechanic the week before we embarked on the journey, and we set out with high spirits, expecting only ease and joy on our way.
Which is what we experienced--until we came within 45 minutes of the hotel we had booked for our first night's stop in Atlantic, Iowa, at an economical, dog-friendly hotel. We met up with a huge storm, and while we were able to make it to the hotel without incident even in the pouring rain, the skies fully opened up as soon as we arrived. Fortunately, we had been listening to intuition, and had stopped at a gas station just before the storm had gotten really bad and had walked the dogs and filled up the van. So when we got to the hotel in the midst of the deluge, the real problem was unpacking the stuff from the car that we needed. Rick valiantly handled that while I got the dogs settled in the hotel room and though he was soaked, he was not unhappy. Though the storm had effectively stymied our plans to go into town to get dinner, fortunately, the hotel had frozen pizzas for sale, and facilities for baking them. We were amazed at how delicious that cheap pizza was because it seemed heaven-sent! And the rain went on and on, the storm seemingly stalled over Atlantic.
The room had high-speed wireless Internet service, and we had brought both our laptops, but we were so tired from the long day's drive, we didn't really need them. I did, however, check some weather sites only to find that, indeed, the storm had stalled over Atlantic, Iowa, dumping an amazing amount of rain in a very short time (not that I needed someone else to tell me that!), and that the highway we'd come in on was partially flooded! Good thing we had arrived when we had! We had joked about a place in Iowa being named after an ocean--we now had a clue as to why! I decided to look into the forecast for the next day, and was none-too-pleased to see that the storm we had ridden into Atlantic on was taking exactly our route eastward, and was even predicted to turn north and move up the eastern shore of Lake Michigan exactly as we would be doing! Unbelievable! We would be catching up with the storm and would most likely be driving in it all day the next day. I caught myself starting to freak out. Driving in the rain is one of the biggest fear-triggers for me, and it just did not fit in with the Easy World scenario I had planned.
We were determined to reach the cottage the next day, and I was equally determined not to spend time in the rain! So I tapped into my power and said, "Look. That will simply not work. I will NOT drive through the rain and lightning all day. I choose to live in Easy World where everything is easy!" And I felt a peace about it and fell asleep quite sure that it would be handled.
When we awoke the next morning, it was a beautiful, sunny day, the only hints of the storm being some puddles in the hotel parking lot and steam rising off the highway. I gathered our stuff and walked the dogs while Rick packed the car, and we were right on time leaving according to the schedule we had set. We had some coffee and mini-muffins in our room and planned to stop down the road for a more substantial breakfast as we were only about 90 minutes from the charming little town of Newton, Iowa, where we had stayed in the past, and had enjoyed breakfast at Hardees, a North Carolina-based fast food franchise. Being an NC girl with no access to Hardees in Denver, I was excited at the prospect of having a Hardees breakfast biscuit. So Rick went to take the last of the stuff to the van and I was ready to join him, after making a last check of the room.
But our departure was to be delayed--the van wouldn't start. Fortunately, we hadn't yet checked out and there were hours to go before checkout time, so we went back to our hotel room and called AAA. They sent someone out immediately and our wait was only about 20 comfortable minutes, relaxing on the bed, watching television. We never let this incident concern us--clearly, we were being watched over, such were the conditions of the situation. I mean--if you're going to have car trouble on the road, best to have a comfy place to wait it out!
Assuming that the water from the night before had caused the battery to fail, the guy that AAA sent simply gave us a jump, and we assumed that the drive would charge it back up. So we set off toward Newton. When we were just about to the exit, I told Rick I didn't really feel the need to stop since we'd already lost time and even if we had left as planned it was going to be a very long day's drive, but he wanted me to have my treat, so he decided we should stop anyway. Besides--we had loved Newton--and were sad that the Radisson we had stayed at with the dogs before was now defunct since Maytag was no longer headquartered there. It would be nice just to be there.
As we drove the few miles off the interstate into the heart of the little town, we were disappointed to realize that what used to be Hardees was now another fast food place, and decided not to get food but just to stop and stretch and give the dogs a chance to relieve themselves. We spotted the perfect shady place behind some commercial buildings where there was a swath of green, ideal for a dog walk. We pulled around to the back of one of the buildings, walked the dogs, and got back in the van. Rick turned the key and...nothing. We were so very glad we had our AAA membership!
So we called again and they said someone would be on the way. They asked for our location, and so I walked around to the front of the building so we could tell them, and my funnybone was immediately tickled: we had unwittingly parked behind an auto-parts store! While we waited for help, I suggested to Rick that he might want to go in the store and scope out a new battery in case that is what we needed. So he set off to do that while I read a magazine. He came back with a new battery and tales of a Mayberry-like encounter with the guys who worked in the store. Clearly, we were in Easy World. Where better to have parked?!
When AAA finally arrived (this time, we had to wait almost an hour), Rick, who is a computer genius, but not at all proficient in anything relating to cars, offered him $15 (all the cash he had in his pocket) to install the new battery, which he did. We figured this would save quite a bit of time since Rick had found out that the only full-service garage would be short-staffed around lunchtime and that we might have quite a wait if we went that route. But we were soon back on the road, feeling very grateful. Not once during these delays did we allow ourselves to leave Easy World.
The rest of the day's trip went without a hitch. Our new battery worked perfectly, and we made amazing time. Truly amazing time! In fact, when I had first called my dad to tell him where were were in eastern Iowa and it was already afternoon with so far to go, he had beseeched us to spend another night on the road, thinking it would be really, really late when we got in and that we would be catching up with the storm at any minute. But we never did catch up with the storm. When we'd stop to eat or get gas or walk the dogs, we'd notice puddles, and occasionally, we'd have to run the wipers to clear the light sprinkles from the tail end of the storm we seemed to be continuously right behind. It was a bit cloudy most of the way, but that worked to our advantage as it kept the van cooler and more comfortable. We had fun listening to the CDs of Garrison Keillor that Rick had checked out from the library, and, in general, just experienced harmony and joy. And even though we hit Chicago during Friday afternoon rush hour, we had an amazingly easy time making our way through it, and were on the other side almost before we knew it. The trip between Chicago and the cottage just flew by, and when we called Dad to say we were just a couple of hours from being there, he could not believe it.
We had succeeded in staying in Easy World--in just allowing things to unfold, not letting ourselves get caught up the the notion that things were going "wrong," and because we had, everything had lined up for us to have an easy, fun, safe trip, without encountering the violent weather. If we had not been delayed leaving our hotel, and again, in Newton, we would certainly have been driving in the storm all day, and indeed, when we reached the cottage, the storm had just passed. My insistence on not being in the storm and our invocation of Easy World and our continual appreciaton of it had saved the day. We miraculously ended up at the cottage at the time we had originally planned to be there and it was almost eerie--like we had somehow slipped in and out of time.
Choosing Easy World is truly the only way to travel! It's simply the only way to go, period!

At last! A video to introduce Easy World. That's what we did with a chunk of our weekend and I'm really glad we got something acceptable.
We had tried a couple of times before and just not captured all that I wanted to say. I'm really not great with scripts--Rick says I couldn't even make news anchor in a 3rd-tier market because of how stiff I sound. So I just jotted a few notes and went from there. I picked this version out of a whole bunch more because I got most of it said, remembered to look in the camera, and I could feel the energy shift after I said the EW "magic words,"
See if you can!
Tonight was the first session of A New Paradigm Course in Becoming Your Self. It was wonderful! The people in the class are all such bright, shiny lights, and even though there are 6 of us in total instead of the 13 I had first imagined, it is very clear that it's all just as it is meant to be. It's a great size for intimate sharing and for everyone having a chance to contribute. I was thrilled that all 5 were so ready, willing, and able to MOVE and to embrace their God-Beingness.
Interestingly, I had a crisis-of-confidence meltdown this afternoon. My ego-mind was intent on making me think I was in grave danger of failure for having promised so much (I, personally, did not promise it--when I came up with the course and the bullet points, I was taking dictation from Spirit) and brought to mind every time in my 3 decades of teaching that I ever did anything that was not as well received as I had wanted it to be. Sheesh! But a great chance to retrieve the energy from the projection and absorb it back into the Light.
So I worked with that a bit and then employed the Step-By-Step Frequency Raising System. I had myself a good ol' #3 and used some other frequency-raising tools (aromatherapy, breathwork, music) and by the time the class started at 7:00 p.m., I was in a fabulous space of trusting and allowing. I finally remembered to invoke Easy World and guess what! It was SO EASY! Once I remembered that I was simply facilitating the process of these folks being more of who they already really are, and recognized that all I needed to do was get out of the way and allow my Spirit to lead me (DUH!), I relaxed into it and everything flowed beautifully.
I have never claimed to be a teacher because I personally always have it all together! I just know how to get it all back together when it gets away from me!
I'm really happy to have five more sessions of this course with this great group, and 3 sessions of the Raise Your Vibration, Transform Your Life telecourse (which starts Tuesday), with what I'm sure will be another great group, ahead of me. I just LOVE facilitating them and being with people who are so spiritually focused and ready to grow!
Nothing too profound tonight...just little bits of news...
We made a new batch of videos today--this time, about Easy World. Rick will be editing them and getting them up in the next couple of days. Loving them! I've been wanting a video for the ILiveInEasyWorld.com home page for quite awhile. I think we've got one--or several to choose from--that will work just fine. I put one of the other videos (Solving problems by raising your vibrational frequency) on the PI Forum, and it has been very, very well received. I checked the stats on it at YouTube, and it has had 114 views so far. If you feel like it, please go see it at YouTube and rate it!
The courses I'm offering this month are filling, but more slowly than I had expected based on what I'm charging. I've been wondering if I've seriously underpriced them! Maybe people think they aren't going to be worth their time since they're offered at such a low price. Someone in the teleseminar the other night piped up and said, "These are an amazing value--I encourage you to take a look!" I really appreciated her saying that because it's so true. I think if people realized what's being offered, they'd jump on them! And so I'm intending that they will!
I've been putting together a promotional email for the courses to send out Tuesday, and I'm offering anyone who takes either class the chance to have a one-hour personal attunement at 20% off in Feb. or March. We have enough in each class to go ahead with them, but I'd love to have more people for a fuller dynamic. I guess I'll just stay in Easy World with it and know that we'll have exactly the right configuration!
Tomorrow's going to be like another Saturday as Rick's taking Monday off (yay!) because it's his birthday, so I'll probably be relaxing too. Mine's not till Feb. 27th, so he'll officially be older for just around 3 weeks. We'll be 54 this year! Unbelievable. We're planning to have a little private Super Bowl party--not because we care that much who wins, but because it's a great excuse to have a Margarita and eat chips, guacamole and Mexican 5-layer dip! Gooooooooo Broncos! I mean...um...who did you say is playing?
Found out today that my first month's commissions from the Holy Tea Club add up to close to $350! Not bad for doing hardly anything...
As I was swimming last night in my Endless Pool, I realized that it's coming up on the 1st anniversary of my rediscovery of Easy World. I was predisposed to be thinking about Easy World for a couple of reasons.
First, how much easier can it get that when I want to swim, I just go into my garage! On a day when it's 12 degrees F outside and snowing, I just suit up, grab my towel, walk down the hall, through the living room, and through a door to my snuggly warm garage and into my warm swimming pool for a great workout! That always raises my vibration and helps me to feel great! In case you don't remember, that swimming pool and garage--and the cold January weather--were the catalysts for me to redisover Easy World!
One of the other reasons I had Easy World on my mind is that one of the delightful folks on the Easy World Forum had just posted a fabulous story of his remarkable experience with invoking Easy World. Maciek is young Polish man, living temporarily here in the U.S. He is quite an Easy World natural and has brought a lot of energy and excitement to the forum. Here is a photo of Maciek
, and here is a link to the thread where you can find his telling of a couple of his Easy World adventures. The one that just tickles me pink is the first one, about his trip to Philadelphia and back. Enjoy!
Rick and I are on our way to Boulder tonight to take Stepdaughter #2 out for dinner and hear about the mission trip she took over her winter break from U. of Colorado to Thailand to help with tsumami relief. I'm looking forward to a chance to see her, eat a great meal, and not write anything or be on the computer for a few hours! I'm about written out. What I believe is the fattest newsletter I've ever done is being sent out tomorrow and I've done soooooooo much writing for that and creating new web pages for new classes and writing class descriptions and on and on! Very excited about it all--and very glad to remove myself for the evening! If you're on my email list, the newsletter will be delivered to your inbox in the morning so keep your eye out for it!
First, I want to tell you how much I wish you could feel my face! Yeah--I know that sounds very weird, but my face is as soft as...no, softer than a baby's behind! I first noticed this when I reached up to rub my eyes one evening last week (please don't tell Dr. Becky, my opthalmologist!) and thought, "Wow--did I just put on moisturizer and don't remember doing it?" so dewy-soft was my face. (If you have reached middle age like me, or are just a space cadet--also, like me--the notion of doing something and not remembering you did it only seconds later is not that far out there!)
But after focusing for a moment, I realized that I had not applied moisturizer for almost 24 hours! Next, I felt my hands, which had not seen lotion for as many hours and they were soft, too! Unheard of in Denver's dry, cold winter and our dry, warm house without a humidifier! My skin is soft and moisturized all over my body--which is especially great because I am really slack on lotioning up! It's just amazing. No cracked skin on my fingers, and absent are my typical bouts of winter itching! The only thing I know that I've done differently is religiously drinking Holy Tea (pardon the pun). I had heard that one of the benefits was soft skin, but this is crazy! Crazy-wonderful!
I received an email from my friend, Nancy, and she said this about the tea (she's been drinking it since September): "Well, a few people have mistaken my 31 year old son as my brother! And when I took my close-to-the-same-age friend to the hospital one morning, the nurses thought I was her daughter! I eat pretty much anything I want (which is a lot lately), but am maintaining a significant weight loss.
PLUS, like you said, I just feel CLEAN! Love it!" Lots of people report spontaneous weight loss. If you haven't read the testimonials on the Holy Tea Products page, definitely do. There's lots and lots of things this tea helps with.
I haven't personally noticed weight loss yet, though my stomach is not bloating since starting the tea, which kinda makes me look a little sleeker through the middle, but losing weight is something I'm definitely looking forward to. First, I think I need to get my post-menopausal hormones straightened out. That's something the tea is supposed to help with as well. I am also going to consider a new product that someone told me about that is supposed to help with hormones, and I'm going to up my maca consumption and use of progesterone cream. I may even go so far as to get a hormone assessment when I figure out the best course of action for that. But meantime, I'm so thrilled to know that drinking the tea is such an easy way to be helping my body at a foundational level.
The business is still amazing, too. I have been totally stunned at how it has built itself. I now have more than 2 dozen people in my downline without even trying. Rick's and my monthly tea bill ($80) is way more than paid for by all the commissions just from people buying the tea through my site at retail--people I don't know and have no clue how they even knew to buy it from me! (I guess from other of my retail customers raving about the tea and giving them the URL for my Holy Tea site) And I'll be receiving a lot more money from that in commissions from the distributors I've effortlessly sponsored. The tea is positively magnetic! But I must tell you--I wonder at the wisdom of buying it retail.
You can become a distributor for free--you get your own Holy Tea Club website for FREE--and you never have to sign up another person and you get the tea wholesale, a $10 savings on a month's supply of tea! If you opt for Auto-Ship, which doesn't lock you into anything because you can cancel or change it at any time, you get your shipping for free! That's the key to this--just sign up as a distributor and either just buy the tea for yourself wholesale, or, if you get as excited about the tea as I am and as so many others are, then sign people up under you so they can get the tea wholesale, too, and have a passive income as well if you want! No obligation--totally your choice. Actually--you don't even have to sign them up--that's the beauty of your free website--they just go there and sign themselves up!
And this is a mind-blower: there's a real chance you will get other distributors put under you without you doing a thing like some of my people did--complete strangers will be put in your matrix. Without you doing anything beyond buying your monthly tea at wholesale! Pretty soon, your monthly tea is paid for and you can have completely passive income without doing much of anything. Amazing. It's definitely an Easy World business! Do check it out if you are at all open to making money the easy way! Okay. I'll stop proselytizing, but I'm just so amazed at how this is all working out, it's hard not to share it with great enthusiasm.
If you didn't read my prior blog entries about Holy Tea and the Holy Tea Club, check out the entries from December 27, December 30, and, there's a little bit about it in the one for January 4.
I really, really want to make a blog entry about something other than the Holy Tea Club, but it has run away with me! I'll try to talk about something else, too, but it's very large in my consciousness at the moment. I suddenly have 19 people in my downline and it's all happened quite spontaneously! I started a Yahoo Group so that we could all share and learn about the tea from each other and to make it easier for me to communicate efficiently and that's taken right off, too. I have felt so much energy around this whole thing that I'm just going with it--inspiration plus energy = fruitful action, so I have not resisted!
Okay...something else to talk about...let's see...Well, I planned all day to make a long-overdue trip to Vitamin Cottage to get groceries and supplements, but I kept being busy in the office and it got later and later. I kept thinking how I'd better go by 4:00 pm or the store would be too busy--you know, Friday afternoon with people stopping off on their way home from work, etc. and I couldn't seem to help myself from visualizing a packed parking lot. Well I finally managed to get out the door at 5:10. The traffic there was strangely moderate (I hadn't thought to create that as challenging!), but when I got to the store, the parking lot, which is on a steep slope (they really could have used a day's more grading when they made it), was jam-packed, with no parking places at all open near the entrance. Just what I had visualized and created with my continuous reinforcement of the thoughts about the busyness I would encounter unless I went out by 4:00!
So I drove up the hill to the upper part of the lot and turned around and said to the powers-that-be in Easy World, "Look. I know I created this with my constant thinking about how it was going to be busy, but I am just not willing to walk down the steep slope (worst thing on my knees) to get to the entrance. You just have to find me a close-in spot!" and then I started driving back to the main parking area, TOTALLY confident that things were working out perfectly for me to have an easy parking spot.
Just as I was approaching the store entrance again, a car pulled out of a place directly opposite the door! It wasn't THE closest place, but only a few feet farther, which was only really an issue in taking the cart back to the corral, etc. and the extra steps that would entail. But as I was checking out, I mentioned that I had forgotten my canvas shopping bags in the car and to save mileage on my knee, I was just going to give in for today and use plastic bags, The clerk then offered to find me someone to help me out to the car, so I had a nice young man load my groceries into the van. He was so happy to be outside (we had an amazingly and uncharacteristically "warm" day today of 50+ degrees!). And, of course, I did not have to make the extra trip to put the cart back--he handled that. Because I was in Easy World, everything just lined up right for me and for all involved!
Even when you find you have created things to be difficult (a pesky human habit), you can move right into Easy World without penalty as long as you simply invoke it and trust and expect that the EW agents are creating things so as to support your well-being!
See? I DID manage to write about something other than the tea! Of course, the reason I was so busy in the office and got out the door so late was tea-business related, so did I really?!
I have decided that my New Year's resolution is to stop trying. I will stop trying and start allowing. No effort, just ease.
I will act only when inspired and energized to. Thus, I will coordinate with the Design for Harmony so that whatever I do will prosper everyone and everything including me!
I will allow Universal Forces to handle things for me. I will allow things to sort themselves out in perfect ways without interference. I will relax in The Flow and feel great joy and Love which will radiate from me to bless all Creation!
I will experience unprecedented success and joy because I will not be blocking it by trying.
A simpler way of saying this is that I will choose to live in Easy World where everything is easy. Let me put that in the present tense:
I choose to live in Easy World where everything is easy!
HAPPY NEW YEAR, everybody!
I did not become a Holy Tea Club distributor with building a business in mind. I just generally don't like doing that. But it seems that this is an Easy World business--it builds itself! After simply responding to inspiration and energy, I blogged about it here and posted about it to a health list I'm on, and I have somehow attracted something like 16 people (things are happening so fast, I can hardly keep track!)--7 retail customers and 9 distributors --with no effort at all! (It's not effort when you're inspired and energized and just do what you are excited to do--that's the Easy World way!) This great wave of response could have something to do with the fact that it's a very new company and getting in on the beginning is so appealing, but it's more than that. It's EW magic!
It stands to reason that something like the tea, that is so powerful but works so easily, would be in alignment with Easy World. I just wasn't expecting it.
Let me give you a little background.
The evening before blogging about the Holy Tea Club, I said to the Easy World angels, "It's time to make some money. But I'm not willing to do anything that I don't want to do. I'm only willing to take inspired, energized action in alignment with Easy World. Please come up with some easy ways for me to make money that will help people."
Actually, I had been mostly focusing on offering some new classes as the way to help and make some money and not thinking about the tea when I asked the angels for help. And I will, indeed, be offering some exciting new classes this winter--lots of potential to really help people elevate their vibrational state which I'll soon be telling you about--but the Easy World angels apparently had more in mind! Thanks, angels! (Did you hear John Forsythe's voice saying that like I did?!)
I am truly continually astonished and thrilled at how easy things are when you invoke Easy World, do what you're inspired and energized to do, and just allow things to work. Oh, how I love Easy World!
I want to introduce you to the "Holy Tea Club." I discovered Dr. Miller's "Holy Tea" through Venus Andrecht's blog, and the minute I read about it I just knew it was what I needed. I had finally been doing a mercury detox a year and a half after having my mercury amalgams removed--I had been waiting to get my colon, liver, and kidneys ready to do that and finally felt it was time to, but after a couple of weeks of it and feeling really crummy, my chiropractor muscle tested me and said my liver was overwhelmed and that before taking more of the homeopathic mercury detoxer, I needed to detox my liver. This occurred around the time I read about the tea, which is called "Holy Tea" because it contains a large percentage of milk thistle, also called "Holy Thistle," an herb that supplies silymarin, which is a liver detoxifier and support! How Easy World is that? I didn't have to pursue the answer--it came right to me.
I immediately ordered a trial amount of the tea, and started using it as soon as it came. I loved it right away! Very, very cleansing--but very gentle. In fact, it was so gentle, I upped the dosage and started getting more dramatic results. As soon as I was certain I wanted to stay with it, I signed up as a distributor (for free) so I could get a better deal on it. I decided to wait till I was absolutely sure of the results till I shared it with you, and now I am.
Without going into gory detail, I am cleansing at a level that is surprising from just drinking 14 or so ounces of the tea per day. I love the flavor--very mild--and I have to guard against drinking too much because I don't want to cleanse too fast! Instead of telling you what I'm finding in my ...um..."cleansing evidence," I'll refer you to the list of benefits of the tea and let you deduce! As for the benefits I'm experiencing, I just feel so much cleaner inside, less bloated, skin is soooooo soft, joint discomfort has diminished, brain fog is lifting (and that's even with the toxic Christmas load I added!), sleeping more deeply and feeling more rested, having more energy and stamina. I'm really psyched about this! It's not only cleansing my eliminative organs, it's helping to detox the mercury as well. It's wonderful to be able to do something so easy that has such a big impact.
Holy Tea is quite an Easy World product. I have taken a lot of cleansing products in my time, but I have never experienced such benefits without discomfort! Do go look at the products page on my Holy Tea Club website and see what you think. Check out the list of benefits and read the testimonials.
What a healthy way to start the New Year--clearing away the old toxins and reclaiming energy and clarity! With ease!
