Open Your Heart To Healing

by Maria Lisa Polegatto
Published in The Edge Magazine

We live in a world so in need of healing, yet to do so we need to take the time to achieve it. We need to allow our heart to open to the many possibilities before us. Healing starts within you, deep within your heart, and it radiates out to your body as it pulses through you. We need only relax and accept it.

Truly You

Spending time at the ocean meditating on the rolling waves as they breathe in and out, reminds me of being a child spending every moment I could at the water. The water has natural healing abilities that wash away the busy of the world and allow us to relax and bounce back to who we truly are when there are no pressures and demands placed upon us.

Angels Are Calling

Angels Are Calling. Reports of people seeing Angels come from all over the world.....

Reports of people seeing Angels come from all over the world. Some with events of unexplained happenings in times of tragedy that disappear into the ether. Do Angels exist? In my opinion, yes. They comfort us in times of sorrow, they lead us away from danger, they give us signs, they rejoice with us.

The Benefits of Massage Through Acupressure

The benefits of massage through acupressure and essential oils.

Massage is so relaxing and soothing in moments when you can let go of pain and the energy it steals away. That sounds so good, but, what if you have injuries, trauma or other reasons why you can’t get massage, not even the lightest touch? While you may think that could be rare, it does happen. So what do you do instead?

Intuition Leads Me

3/2/2018

Intuition Leads Me. Being in tune with oneself can lead to many benefits, some of which can not be fully explained. Intuition is more than knowing the phone is going to ring before it does. It is the knowing and feeling you are on the right path, when you need to change your path to avert danger and having knowledge about things that others have done and left unsaid before you.

Yoga Balances My Spirit

27/1/2018

Yoga Balances My Spirit. I have fond memories of being a child practicing yoga with my mother. We sat on the floor and bent ourselves in many poses to strengthen our minds and bodies. It has served to balance my spirit as life unfolded over the years.

Inward Community

1/7/2017

Introvert. Introversion. We are all thrust into this world racing through the day and into the night to do it all again over and over. While we can be open and eager to spend time in the bright lights, we also need those who can teach us how life can be enjoyed by oneself. When we accept ourselves for who we are, we can teach ourselves and others so much about life.

Abundance of Spirit

1/6/2017

Spirituality. We are constantly on the search for abundance in the form of great amounts of wealth, health, happiness, possessions, and prosperity in life. But there is still more to abundance that can give us great peace and solitude within. An abundance of all that which sustains us - Spirit. When we are filled with spirit, we are filled with the Light that guides our way towards abundance.

Nature Expands My Consciousness

1/5/2017

Spirituality. To think, to feel, to be aware of oneself and of that which surrounds us in our daily life; consciousness. So simple yet so complex that it requires your full awareness to achieve. In life we often look for the complexities instead of these simplicities for healing our soul, but healing occurs when we enter into stillness, awareness and the unfolding of emotions where consciousness exists. What a better place to find this place of sweet serenity than nature.

Healing Spirit

Spirituality. As the morning dawn comes upon me, the Light opens my heart to a new day. Prayers of plenitude for others awaken my spirit preparing me for the day. It is in these early morning hours that healing takes hold setting me forth for the daily journey that awaits.

Nature Revives My Spirit

2/3/2017

Life leads us many places, good and bad, through daylight and darkness. Each step leading us toward another event that molds us into ourselves. As days pass by quickly, we can still slow down the pace by taking time for ourselves to revive our soul to new heights. My place for this renewal is the depths of nature and all of the treasures it has to offer. A walking meditation along the path that Light has opened before me.

When Life Comes Calling

4/1/2017

You can continue to run from it, over and over, but it's going to find you. It's life. It's your life. You don't really want to escape from it, do you? And you can try to keep running, but it will be right there with you, all the days of your life. But when life has something to say to you, to teach you, it will whether you like it or not. For there comes a time when life comes calling. Will you hear it knock upon your door of life? Will you pay attention? Will you heed its warning? Life Coaching.

We live life as though it will always be there for us. We wake up, jump up, run through our day, eat, drink, run, run, run, off to bed and it all starts again the next day, over and over. It can be so exhausting. Until one day, one day when life says, "Ok, now it's time. Now it's time to show you what life is all about."

Breathe Love

1/12/2016

Breath Love. We all know how to breathe and how to love but do we know how to have that love heal you? Breathing allows your body to flow air in and circulate that air through your body to keep your cells healthy. Love is so many things. Most of us think of love as being something you give but it's so much more than that.

I see too much stress in the world, don't we all, it's everywhere - let's take a moment to relax into our peaceful soul, deep within ourselves to find some tranquility within. For what happens within will mirror what happens outside of us.

Healing Love

12/3/2016

Healing Love. Thank you cancer, not for what you robbed me of, but for the moments I have learned how to overcome. For in this life we are a total sum of all of our experiences, both good and bad, that shape us into the here and now of each and every moment of our journey in life.

When Canine Cancer Strikes

And there it was one day right out of the blue. It's hard, it's round, it's on my furry child. It's.....it's.....it's.....a lump!!! Alert, Alert!!! Oh my goodness, as I sit next to her and stare at it. No, it couldn't be. I feel it again to double check and triple check. I do a dog once over again and again, all over. Yes, it's still there. It wasn't there yesterday. We check you everyday in our morning ritual to get you ready for your day.

Dan-de-lions are roaring!

5/5/2015

Bees. Once upon a time there was a bee named Dan. He had slept all winter and was still pretty tired and cold but he was getting hungry waiting for the sun to come out and warm up nature. He was all snuggled up with his family of 30,000 bees in their hive keeping warm. Sometimes the sun warms up the hive and it can trick a bee into thinking spring has sprung. Dan had learned from his family that it was dangerous for a bee to venture out of the hive or even out of the comforts of the warmth of their snuggle. His uncle couldn't wait one year and he was sadly missed. In memory of his uncle, the bees all met and decided they would elect a head bee for each hive. Dan was now protector of the lady worker bees and their precious Queen Bee of their hive until Springtime.

Angel Dreams: Holding the Light

29/12/2014

Angel Dreams: Holding the Light. For me Reiki is love. I do animal Reiki because animals are love and love to channel love. The more animals you find populating in an area, the more their message of love is needed in that area. Welcome them into your heart and they will teach you great things. We can all be part of the Light that lights up this world. From East to West and North to South, let your Light shine in this World; let it circumvent this globe. Love really is all there is in the beginning, during and in the end. And so it is and always will be. Love will endure without end.

Last night I had a dream. I was dreaming in my dream. I was peaceful and oblivious to the happenings in the world. The Angels were protecting and teaching me. I had fallen asleep in class with students all around me. I was learning from the Angels while the other students were learning in class. As I slept the power went out and light was needed to fix the fuse panel but there were no lights to be found.
