Creating altars is a very old-fashioned method of magic, manifestation, and psychological focus that is becoming more and more accepted in other forms in our cultures. The things you now find in Journal, scrapbooks, and vision boards are all the kinds of things you previously would have found on an altar. Because this is such

Greetings! Back in the day, back when I got N.F. and landed in the neighborhood trauma center to undergo a buttload of surgeries, among other joyous occasions, there was a time in particular that stuck in my mind. (Actually, there were several of them, but this is the one I am being directed to tell

Thursday’s prompt was: “What do you want to be when you grow up? Why?” I always answer this question differently, so here’s another iteration! I want to be a keeper of space for other people. I want to create and keep a space where people can explore themselves, their realities, and their worlds safely without

Wednesday’s prompt was: “What does your perfect client look like? Do you already have a perfect client?” I DO already have a perfect client! I’m not going to name them, of course, but I’m using them for my avatar for my perfect client. My perfect client is someone who is seeking for the truth in

Last Sunday’s prompt was: “What is the most important thing to know about life?” I’m torn between two answers here, so I’m just going to give you both of them. The first is, “that nobody gets out alive.” There’s nothing to be gained from not taking chances and not living out loud except for a

Last Saturday’s prompt was: “What are your biggest challenges in productivity?” Ooooh, this is a hard one to answer, too! My biggest challenges in productivity are actually my daily habits. Especially my sleeping habits. If I don’t get the right amount of sleep at the right time, my productivity drops and I start seeking out

Last Friday’s prompt was: “What behavior do you have that keeps other people comfortable while holding you back? What are you doing just to maintain the status quo?” I’ve probably actually got a few of these hanging around. I’m definitely a “peacekeeper” type and like to keep things comfortable for the people around me. The

There are typically two types of creative people (and the creativity you have may not be obvious, but it’s there!): Idea People and Implementors. Thinkers or Doers. People who come up with wonderful ideas and schemes and those who know how to get the job done. Everyone is at least a little bit of each,

Goal-setting can be tough sometimes. Sometimes it’s like lightning striking your brain! But this time, let’s set our goals deliberately. #CakeinHawai’i is a pretty big goal that we’ve set for ourselves – and it’s very specific! You should go ahead and set an equally specific goal as well. But there’s a lot of different goals

Greetings! Change can hurt. It can hurt a lot. But the thing you have to ask yourself is… Which hurts worse? To change? Or to stay where you are??? This wonderful & wonderfully-maddening piece of advice was given to me recently by my awesome husband & business partner, Mike Diamond. And it’s so true. I’ve

Greetings! A wise friend asked me an extra-amazingly insightful question recently. She asked, “Birdy, do you do predictive channelling?” I said no, because I do not. Then she said, “Then quit trying to predict the future.” This is why she’s my friend. (Among many other reasons.) She had a point. One of those, “Oh, my

I recently tripped over this TED Talk by Derek Sivers, whom I adore. (His book, Anything You Want, is excellent. And he answered my fan mail!) This one is short – check it out: In his talk, Derek cites research that indicates that telling someone your goal makes you less likely to achieve it. What?!

Sacred Politeness So, I was talking to one of my fellow conspirators here at A2Abundance about how to balance making what we do casual but also keeping it sacred, and we came around to this idea of Sacred Politeness. The way I view Sacred Politeness is the same way I view using “Namaste.” In using

Wow, we had some really great comments when I posted about creating a spaciousness experiment a bit ago with some really fascinating results! For me, the day I decided to be spacious and share it with others, I ended up in the opposite space. And, of course, the more I got frustrated with it, the

(I apologize. This week’s Wednesday Weekly Wisdom is a day late simply because I’m not good at telling time. Apologies all around.) I want to talk to you this week about asking the right questions. The grand questions, the mystery of the cosmos, and what energy is really made of are fantastic questions – mind

Three people, their Galleries of Guides, and a wonder-full community of Fellow Travellers are taking on the #CakeinHawai’i Challenge in 2013.
A year-long Journey through the ‘Abundant A’s and the ‘Radiant R’s, learning how to apply concepts of Abundance to our lives and businesses, so that we may all receive our own ‘CakeinHawai’i’ rewards, whatever they may be. :>0<:
See you in Hawai'i!
- Birdy, Mike, and Nathara
