Created Self responds to message about breakthrough LE event

Most transformational work is designed for and is incredibly effective for people who find their truth with their intellect. My work is designed for 'feeling-centered' beings. My clients are more effective when they 'trust their guts' or 'listen to their intuition.' Learn to trust your truth and live your dreams.

Breaking news:  I am not a coach, I am not a trauma resolution specialist.  I am an Intuitive Healer. 

Magi Speelpenning, Intuitive Healer:  cue theme song....

As I step into being Intuitive Healer, my world how view is different from the world view of others.  What is new is being responsible; that is to say conscious about it.  There are moments; each moment connecting on-goingly to the next, each precious and unique unto itself.  'MIND' --as is its design--files each of these moments into other files of similar data.  'MIND'   is not designed to allow each new moment to occur fresh, without prior interpretation.  This serves us for things like driving, walking, navigating our computers etc.  The world view of 'MIND'  is I know this, I know this, I know this.  Nothing is new, including our responses to incoming moments. 

Landmark Education is the world view of 'be your word', a gorgeous world view which lets us bring integrity and workability to all of our interactions with other beings--whether they are being their word or not.  ' Be your word' is a powerful way to interact powerfully and effectively with the mechanations of 'MIND.'   In my experience, Landmark serves the intellectually structured community beautifully--those people who source 'be your word'  from 'word'.  Declare (word) something then configure yourself to align with those words.  Ongoingly true your being to those words.  It is a brilliant strategy that works. 

And, for feeling-centered beings, such as myself, 'be your word' is sourced in 'be'.  I check in energetically, recognize my truth, my center, then and only then do I speak the truth of it.  My words align with my being--they are there to verbally express the truth of the moment.  Moments that are sourced in my heart feel connected and open. The moments that feel creepy, uncomfortable,or like trying to fit a round peg into a square hole are always when 'MIND'  is trying to be my source.  Said differently, for feeling-centered beings, heart is being, mind is word.  And--this is the truly juicy discovery--for intellectual types, you experience yourselves as connected and open when you live from the truth of your word.  Both ways of engaging powerfully with the mechanics of 'MIND' are valid.  Both are ways of engaging with the moments coming at you. 

I am in wonder, with great joy to know that transformation  and making the world a kinder, richer and sweeter place to live is available for both intellectual and feeling centered beings. 

And now, what there is to say about the beautiful evening below is 'MIND'  turns distinctions into things, formulas that get filed.  'MIND' files: enroll and register from 'it works, go try it' will become the way to get people to participate in Landmark, rather than something created heart to heart--being to being--in the moment.

in response to:  a Landmark event---

1. a few seminar leaders shared about what this work gave them access to - what they got from the Forum 
2. they had to do it without the shares and stories, just distinguish what "it" was that they got - not easy
3. When it was clear that "it" is a kind of freedom from the tyranny of believing your point of view is reality he moved to the next point
4. about 70,000 people a year do the forum.  That's how many are born in a day on the planet
5. the way the planet is going our work is needed - really needed.  What would it be like if all of us could distinguish ongoingly that we operate inside of interpretations?
6. He thought that we had all gone (himself included) "numb" about the difference this work has made and is making in our lives
7. our problem with enrolling and registering others is not that it's hard, it's that there's a failure in our past (in the area of enrolling/registering) that we're not complete with - one seminar leader shared how her sister in law will not do Landmark and how this has stopped her
8. he told us that over 400 or 800 corporations have done Landmark - it's on Apple's approved list of courses for staff development, and how CEOs are speaking in favor of it, and how a very senior prof emeritus at the B School at Harvard is working to brink Landmark into univ curricula
9. He also announced some big exciting changes coming up that will make it easier for us to enroll-register
10. he talked a lot and we laughed a lot about how we/Landmark has been using highly technical language in a world where that is neither wanted nor understood.  We've all tried to play junior forum leader or explain the distinctions, when all we need to say, "it works, go try it!"
11. We all left back in the presence of what it was alla bout in the first place

Your Mother Should Know

When our children are little, they come to us with a cut finger or a scraped knee and say, "it hurts, kiss it and make it better!"  And we do.  And it does, tears are replaced with giggles and our babies run off to resume playing.  And in those moments we are invincible.  We are the mother.  We can fix everything. 

Until the day comes when something happens and we can't fix it.  And we are devastated, because the magic of our kisses has always worked before. Really, we are blindsided by this phenomenon. 

I became aware of these distinctions as I sat in the waiting room of the hospital with the staff member from the Sukyo Mahikari center, where my friend and I are both practitioners in the Art of True Light. http://www.sukyomahikari.org/  Earlier that afternoon, I helped my friend bring her daughter for what would be her final stay.  We had left her husband to fill out paperwork, and we had driven back home so my friend could gather clothing and toiletries for a few days.  The hospital was great about setting things up so my friend could be in the room with her daughter 24-7. 

When we returned, the first sight that greeted us was the concerned face of our staff member.  Within seconds, before we could even greet him, a nurse came out, and confronted my friend saying, "if she dies do you want us to resuscitate her?"  My friend deflected saying that she needed to talk with her husband and would let her know.  Then she went off to look for him, leaving me with the staff member; both of us feeling a bit useless and helpless.

Knowing that this overwhelming helplessness would not serve my friend, I began to figure out  why I was feeling what I was feeling.  I did this out loud as the staff member, who was a dear friend, aware of my process, sat listening.  I spoke aloud what I wrote at the beginning of this post.  Just the process of seeing how we set ourselves up as mothers gave me some grounding and assurance, and I knew what I could say that would truly serve my friend.  She came out a few minutes later, looking very 'deer in the headlights.' 

In order to get her full focus and attention, I called her name somewhat sternly.  Immediately she looked into my eyes.  I said, "It is a year from now.  Your daughter has been dead for several months.  What is the decision you made today that is the easiest for you to live with?"   In that moment her eyes became clear and her face became peaceful.  She declared, with strength in her voice, "My daughter already told me that if she goes that she does not want to be revived or put onto any kind of machinery.   That is what she wants so that is my answer." 

Our staff member then spoke up and shared the devastating impact of the doctors driving the gigantic needle of drugs straight into his mother's heart--think of the needle scene with Uma Thurman in Pulp Fiction.   I was truly moved by the intimacy and vulnerability of our staff member, as the members from Japan tend to be very, very private about their personal lives.  I had the intuitive sense that he was providing an anchor for my friend so she would truly know in her heart of hearts that she was making the best choice for her daughter.

My friend left to find her husband again and to sign the 'do not revive' papers.  Her daughter passed quietly and peacefully three days later.  Her life was a gift and a blessing and she is missed here on the physical plain.

There are many structures and beliefs about being a mother which do not serve us.  They cause us guilt, or frustration, or a number of other feelings &/or behavior which derail us and leave us in a state of helplessness or hopelessness.  I am filled with such joy that I was allowed to learn and fine tune the processes that allow us to overcome the ravages of buying into all of that 'perfect mother' crap.  When you are ready to say, "Enough is enough!", I will be happy to work with you.  Freedom and ease await.


I used the terms 'my friend' and 'her daughter' in the post as a respect for their privacy and my inability to come up with fake names; it's just my way.

Who Are We?

I have been exploring the word 'consumer' as in 'we are a consumer culture' and as I looked this holiday season, I saw the festive red and green decorative call to spend, spend, spend. The red and green call comes earlier every year, and now even Black Friday has moved to weeks before Thanksgiving.  WTF?  When I picture 'consumers' what I picture collectively is a flock of locusts tearing through every environment they pass, leaving destruction and desolation in their path.  Individually, I picture massive amounts of stuff, stuff, stuff being fed into our systems and putrid piles of garbage being left in our wakes.  My new Samsung 4-G phone leaves behind the useless carcass of my LG Rumor--luckily, I was able to bequeath this carcass to my ever-lovin husband. So actually, my 4-G left behind the useless and non-disposable carcass of his RAZAR. 

I tuned into the Pachamama Alliance Luncheon live stream earlier this year.  I've tuned into TEDTalks and listened to how we are eradicating whole cultures and peoples with our insatiable need for more.   Will we ever come from replenishing as our core being rather than consuming?   What could our world look like if we buy all of our gifts on Craig's List or in second hand stores?  What could we create if we donated last year's computer to a school or last years cell phone to a women's shelter?  What if we learn  recognize the inherent value of all our possessions and see who could claim and enjoy that value when we are ready to let go? 

I am reminded of Edward G Robinson's character, 'Rocky' in the classic movie, Key Largo.  What he wants is: more; yeah, that's it, more;  there will never be enough, at least there never has been.   I wonder what happened to him that he is never satisfied.  In my 'who would I like to work with fantasy', he comes up as an ideal client.  We would get to the underlying beliefs that caused him to be so insatiable, and debug those patterns, release those barriers and leave 'Robinson's Rocky' with peace and freedom within  the core of his being.  A whole new life would open up where his actions are dictated from this peace within, maybe he would even apologize to Gay Dawn (you'll have to see the movie-HA!)  and buy her that drink. 

Why do We do this to Ourselves?

Years ago,as part of my job, I helped a professor post insightful comments in student workbooks.  One evening, I was reading through the workbook of a student whose entries pushed every opinionated WTF cell in my entire body.  I found it more and more challenging to come up with anything that I could say with integrity.  One of my room mates who had observed my increasing consternation said, "Magi, why don't you just write what you really think?

Inspired, I pulled off a post-it sheet and rattled off something really crude, mean, and berating.  "How about this?"  I asked as I handed him the sheet.  We both howled with laughter, then he got up from his chair and pinned it to our community bulletin board.  Again we had gales of laughter which rendered us senseless.  Then things got interesting.  As we were sitting trying to regain composure, one of our room mates came into the room, walked over to the board and read the note.  Before we could speak, this person turned and stammered, "Who left this  for me?"

Then this person left the room, and the next room mate came through,  The same thing happened, note read, intended recipient-ship assumed.  We decided to see if everyone would have the same reaction or if there would be exceptions.  There was only 1 exception, but this person was always very chilled out. 

This seems to be one of those inherited behaviors, to assume that something is your fault.  What does "assuming that something is your fault" feel like in your body during your day to day interactions?   What would it be like to feel relaxed in your spirit, mind and body?   Identifying and releasing the energetic patterns of unresolved experiences feels like having a huge weight removed from your heart.  Big, open, eager hearts naturally become filled with big open visions, dreams, actions: the heart fulfilled, a life well loved.

My Work and How to Find Me

I train you to eliminate and release barriers, find the truth that lives in your heart, and open the creative pallet for designing and living a life you truly love, a life that fulfills your entire being.  My work is an emerging field within the emerging field of human software engineering and development.  While most bodies of work deal with obstacles using the intellect, my work provides huge breakthroughs through the feeling centers of the body.

We come into this world as feeling beings.  Our strongest access to the experience of ourselves as new beings is on a feeling level.  Although we can feel/hear sound coming into our ears it takes time to develop the capacity to differentiate between what all of the different sounds evoke.  Mother's voice leaves a different imprint on us than a loud startling sound.  A nurturing hug leaves a different feeling level reaction than a hard slap. 

While we are in this stage without spoken language to guide us, something either physically or emotionally painful happens which triggers a feeling level response and decision to never feel that bad again. This decision makes perfect sense at the time.  As we become adults, we have 20 times more of these cells that allow us to feel than when we were babies.  However, because of this feeling level decision, we only utilize about 10% of the capacity at our disposal. 

When things happen that overwhelm our capacity to feel, we do not complete whatever the experience is; this leads to problems later on.  In the ACE ( Adverse Childhood Experience ) Study conducted by Kaiser Permanente, people who had 4-6 overwhelming things occur were exponentially more likely to have addictive behaviors, have difficult time holding down steady jobs, and be much more likely to have kidney, liver or other debilitating diseases as adults.  

So again I ask; What would life be like if you completely let go of patterns and behaviors that no longer serve you?  What freedoms and opportunities would be available to you and what would you want to do with your new found freedom and power?

My Latest Breakthrough

My husband and I moved into an apartment while our home is on the market.  Here's our for sale home--
http://sea.themlsonline.com/search/new,map,c6b5695306571c4b4b185667f5d1aa1b.html  
One of the upshots of apartment living is that I have taken on keeping it clean.  I made the commitment to sweep, wash and vacuum once a week.  What actually happened pointed to early childhood conditioning.  When I was growing up, we only ran the vacuum cleaner when my dad was away at work.  When he was home, it was considered  better to keep quiet, hence no vacuuming.   I found that I could not get the vacuum out when my husband is home.  And he doesn't care, really.  Of course, I cleared out that energy, checked in and forgave myself, my father, his father and ancestors, our collective conditioning and myself again, several times actually as I tapped into different facets.  Into the energetic space I replenished myself and my psyche with cleaning as an expression of love and gratitude.  

The Best House --oops I mean Hell's Kitchen--Opening Ever

Hells Kitchen, for the uninitiated, is a show where 16 chefs compete for big bucks and a golden new career.  On season 8 episode 1, one of the competing chefs presents her signature dish which makes Ramsey throw up almost his entire intestinal tract with occasional bouts of 'bloody hell--uuurrrp; brraarrf.'   The next morning, during kitchen prep, the contestant goes into the storage room and falls to the ground in a spasming heap. Cut to medics. Cut to an ambulance and loud sirens. Cut to commercial.
For a moment I was surprised to not hear the opening theme from House.  The more I thought about it, the more I relished the idea of Dr. Gregory House going toe to toe against chef Gordon Ramsey.  who would win?  would there be blood?  whose wry barbs would cause the other to collapse into a quivering blob?  would they, could they, erupt into a passionate frenzy of Brokeback-esque manliness while Wilson takes blackmail pictures?   A rich imagination kept me busy and content for many bizarre and happy minutes.
Perhaps this is not what one would consider conventional wisdom, yet, perhaps, wisdom is the back of the hand to thinking thoughts that no (wo)man has thought before.  til we meet again....
