Hi there, this is Julia again. How are you all?
I have been struggling with emotions lately and not able to write anything. I couldn't think of anything useful to write.
You see, I am just a human being with emotions just like you! (yes this is a real person here) And sometimes these emotions overwhelm me. I have found that the best thing I can do is to sit in my meditation room and chant. Close my eyes, and ask for help from the soul world. To love and to forgive.
|Its really that simple. Sometimes it takes me a while, I think I have forgiven, and then I see that I am still angry. So then I need to sit quietly again and chant some more.
What to chant?
I love to chant: Divine Love,or Da Ai which means Greatest or Big Love in Chinese.
Or it could be just Love, or Forgiveness.
One thing I am really excited about that I would like to share with you is that my beautiful, amazing spiritual Master - Dr and Master Zhi Gang Sha will be coming to Melbourne, Australia from July 10-14th. So if you're interested leave a comment and otherwise go to drsha.com for more information about how you can experience and learn from such a great Master about secrets of the Universe, how to heal, what is the Tao and so much more.
So keep trying these practices I have shared with you, and come along and experience something truly profound in July.
I will be away from my computer for the next two weeks - so I will talk to you again soon. With much love and light to you all.
Yours truly,
Julia

Hullo again, this is Julia. Today I would like to write about TIREDNESS.
What has this got to do with emotions you ask? Well in my experience, when I get tired, I get grumpy - that's another name for angry! I also get down - that's another name for depressed! There you go, there's two emotions already that can come from TIREDNESS!!!
So what to do about tiredness, apart from sleeping, resting, eating well, exercising, taking vitamins etc.?
Master Sha, my spiritual teacher, says that we can boost our energy, stamina, vitality and immunity through a very simple practice for the Lower Dan Tian. What is the Lower Dan Tian? It is a fist sized energy centre just below the navel just inside the body about 1-2 inches.
This energy centre can boost our energy. To develop this centre, we can tap our lower abdomen, or place our hands over our lower abdomen. Master Sha says that "Where we place our hands is where we receive healing."
Then we imagine a golden light ball spinning in our lower abdomen.
Then we sit up straight. And then we use a mantra - Master Sha teaches,"What we chant we become".
We will chant "Jiu" pronounced "Joe" which is a chinese word for the number 9 - this has been found to reverberate in the lower abdomen.
So that's all we need to know - just chant Joe Joe Joe over and over with your hands on your lower abdomen. Imagine the golden light ball. You should do it silently if you are lying down. do it for at least 5 mins the longer the better and let me know how you go? Has your energy been boosted? No? then do more!!
I am going to do that now myself.
Wishing you all the best with boosting your energy.
Love Julia

WORRY - how to deal with it.
Hullo everyone, and welcome to my blog.
Today I would like to share with you about the emotion of worry.
According to Traditional Chinese Medicine the emotion of worry is connected to the Earth element,the spleen and stomach. Many of us are very good at worrying...I think worrying is about not being able to think of anything else except the issue at hand.
Let's look at a few examples of worry:
Your teenager has gone to the city - a nightclub - he won't be back til late. He doesnt want you to pick him up - he's already 18 after all!!!! So you go to bed at 10 p.m. but you cant sleep, and you toss and turn and imagine all the worst things that could happen to him.
Another example:
Your grandson has pneumonia, he's only 11 months old and lives many miles away. You imagine him lying limp in his mother's arms and all your greatest fears arise. You keep thinking about him and can't think about anything else. You feel sick in your stomach. You dont go out for the day because you're too worried. You keep ringing your daughter but she doesnt answer. So you think something terrible has happened.
This is worry. How can we deal with worry so that we can get on with our lives even though there are things happening to our loved ones or ourselves?
Master Sha, my spiritual teacher has many wonderful spiritual practices in his books to help us with worry.
Here's one you may like to try:
Use the Four power techniques:
Body Power: Sit up straight, put your tongue to the roof of your mouth. Put one palms on your lower abdomen and the other on your spleen, just under the rib cage and on the left side of the front of the body.
Mind Power: Focus on the first soul house - or first chakra, at the base of the torso in the middle of the body. Imagine a golden ball rotating there.
Sound Power: Chant or repeat silently or aloud: Gong Ya You Tao ( pronounced gawng ya yoe dow)
Soul Power:
Dear Divine, Dear Tao
Dear Heaven, Mother Earth and countless planets, stars, galaxies and universes,
Dear all my spiritual fathers and mothers in all layers of Heaven and on Mother Earth,
Dear Tao Song
I love you honour you and appreciate you.
When I sing the Tao song mantra for the Earth element, please clear soul mind body blockages from my Earth element and heal my emotion of worry.
I am very grateful.
Thank you thank you thank you.
Chant for 3-5 mins - or much longer - the longer the better.
Notice how you feel now!
This is a wonderful way to heal worry and leave you feeling relaxed and accepting of what is for the moment. If worry arises again, do the practice again. Of course sometimes we can take action as well, for example, we may insist on picking our son up around the corner from the nightclub, or fly to be with our daughter and grandson to help them.
As Master Sha says: "If you want to know if the pear is sweet, taste it."
If you want to know if this works, try it!
Love you and wishing you all the best in your journey to healing your emotions.
Love Julia

Hullo everyone, this is Julia again. How are you?
Do you every wonder why you aren't happy??
Do you search everywhere for happiness? Like overseas holidays, gourmet or junk food, alcohol, drugs, partying, shopping,personal growth workshops, gambling??
If we look at all those things, they are all outside us. What is it that drives us to do the things we do looking for happiness?
I believe it is the mind. Our minds are very powerful. Some think too powerful.
We believe our minds, we listen to our minds, we think that what our minds tell us has to be the truth. But is it always the truth???
NO! Our minds are only as old as our bodies - e.g. 20 or 30 or 60 etc. So that's how much experience our minds have had.
When our minds tell us "My hair looks horrible today" or " I look ugly today" or "I'm not much of a person because I don't have lots of money", how do we now this is the truth???
We dont. But we don't usually question our minds, we say, okay that's what my mind said so it must be the truth! Then if we believe a statement like "I look ugly today" we start to feel sad, or depressed, or if we're a model we might feel fear that we could lose our job!
So this is where it can be so valuable to ask ourselves the question:
Is this true? Is this absolutely true? How do I know it's true?
There is a great teacher called Byron Katie who has written several books about this if you're interested.
We can also make a conscious decision if we hear the voice in our heads saying something negative about who we are, or how we look, we can simply say:
Dear my mind,
Thank you for your input, however, this is not helpful for me today.
Now I will think something positive
I Love my hair, I love my body just the way it is.
Thank you mind.
Then we could take it one step further and repeat over and over,
I love my hair, I love my body.
This is Mind Power, the power of the mind.
This requires discipline, but it can be done, bit by bit until we stop saying negative things about ourselves and also other people.
I will talk further about this and how we can use Soul Power which is even more powerful than mind power to heal ourselves.
In love and light,
Julia

Dear Friends,
This is Julia again. How are you?
When I learn how to I will add some videos etc. to make this more exciting for you. Until then I will just write to you.
Today I thought I would write to you about the Mind and expectations.
Its just past Easter now and as I reflect back on my weekend I think some of my pain on Friday was due to expectations of how Easter SHOULD be!!!
I have memories of happy Easters when my children were small. Happy Easters even as a child. The warm weather, the relaxation, the Easter egg,s the laughter and more.
But life never stays the same, life is change.
And so the mind - the mind doesnt like change, it wants to hold onto joy and happiness. It wants everything to be just perfect and lovely all the time. And then we can get angry because of this desire. And then we get depressed because we can't MAKE it how we want it.
Of course, we do have the power to create a happy day. It may be a different kind of day than we have been used to, it might be a quieter day, or a noisier day, or a busier day or whatever, but if we can just ACCEPT what it is, and what we can do to make it how we want it, that is, Happy, then we will be happy!!
But we have to catch the mind and what it is up to!!! There's the catch, we have to start watching our mind. Noticing its little sneaky thoughts that start to build until suddenly we have a strong negative EMOTION. Try to catch it before that and ask yourself, What can I do to make my day enjoyable even if its not what I think it should be.
We could save ourselves a lot of pain if we just did that and nothing more. But we do have to take action and find something to do that will fill us with joy.. For example if the children come over and expect a nice lunch from us and we're grumpy because we feel like lying on the couch reading a good novel, How about changing the thinking to GRATITUDE and enjoying their company while we have it. Make them laugh, make them sing, bring joy to someone else and WE will experience joy.
Or if no one is coming and we are lonely we could think of all our friends and family and send them LOVE, sing I LOVE YOU, dance and sing I LOVE YOU.
We can also chant: I am so grateful for everything I have received in my life.
Here's just a few thoughts, based on my own life experience that I am still learning to do.
Much love to you all,
Julia

Relationships and depression
Good morning everyone! Welcome to my blogspot!
This morning I would like to think about emotions - given that is what my blogspot is all about that's a good start.
When we are in the middle of negative emotions like depression - everything seems very bad indeed.
When we are not in the middle of negative emotions like depression - everything doesnt seem so bad.
Why?
When we are depressed - and Im not talking about Clinical Depression which is an entirely different thing and I will not be addressing here as I am not a Psychologist or Psychiatrist.
When we are depressed it is - for me - because of something that has happened. Usually someone has said some stuff to me that has "hurt my feelings". Sometimes I am not fully aware, in the moment of their speaking, of how I am feeling. Then the next minute I am feeling depressed. Why?
Because my mind has taken hold of the things said, or the way it is said, and given it all a label. For example:
"He/she is so unkind", He/she is so unfair, He/she has it all wrong" and so on. Then that can escalate into:
He/she doesnt really love me or he/she would never say such a thing, act in such a way.
How can I live with such a person. How can I put up with this kind of talk, behaviour etc.??
Then if we have made a committment to that person we just can't walk away! So then the mind gets stuck and feels there is no solution, then the depression sets in. That's for me anyway, how about you?
Then the next day we get up and the person is normal again, kind again, thoughtful and loving again!! Then we feel so strange - what is going on here??
Well I used to have a teacher who talked about "When your demons attack!!!" So when your demons attack - this part of you takes over and makes you a crazy person an unkind person, an obsessional person or whatever is your particular demon (we can have more than one kind of course).
What I think personally I need to do is when the person close to me has a "demon attack" I need to recognise it as such and start to send them LOVE and start to send ME LOVE. Then when and if my mind starts to take over and reflect on how awful this all is, I might start chanting I love You .
Well anyway, Im just ruminating here and will think about this more, will you think about this? - let me know what you think!! ???
In summary:
1. Label the other person's outburst: A Demon Attack
2. Give LOVE to yourself and the other
3. Chant I love you
This way you are being pro active and you dont have to feel like a victim in all this - which is what can make us feel depressed I believe.
There is a way to deal with our relationships, our depression, our unbalanced emotions.
In fact there are many ways. This is just one. But a very powerful one because
"Love melts all blockages and transforms all life" Dr and Master Zhi Gang Sha
I will write about other ways in further blogs.
I will also let you know if next time this happens for me I am able to do the above and not just write about it.
With love and blessings,
Julia
