Inspirational Jewelry – Tree of Life Necklace
Walking up and down the streets of Manhattan and Los Angeles, you will see more and more how popular “Yoga Jewelry” is becoming. Yoga Jewelry represents a line of jewelry that has specific meanings and symbolism relating to life. One particular piece I am seeing more and more in boutiques and retail shops is a very intricately designed sterling silver necklace with a design representing the Tree of Life. What is truly beautiful about this piece is not just the hand-made intricate design, imported from Indonesia, but the phenomenal meaning behind it.
The Tree of Life is a universal symbol found in many spiritual traditions and cultures. It symbolizes many things, including wisdom, protection, strength, bounty, beauty, and redemption.
A tree also bears seeds or fruit and is a sustainer of creation, which is also symbolic of regeneration and immortality. The tree can also be representative of human life, as trees develop roots, strengthen, and grow. As the branches of a tree reach skyward, we too, as humans, grow and learn. Also, the tree provides shelter in a nurturing and caring manner. A tree also lives for many generations, as humans do.
The tree of life is an important symbol in cultures and religions around the world, including Judaism and Christianity. The Tree of Life is also central to modern Kabbalistic study. The tree symbolizes creation, existence and the return to the divine in ten spheres and twenty-two connecting paths. In Kabbalah, the Jewish mystical tradition underlying Judaism and Christianity, two different Tree of Life symbols are utilized. One Tree Of Life Symbol is upside-down and the other right-side-up.
Due to the fact that trees take on the appearance of death in the winter – losing their leaves, only to sprout new growth with the return of spring. This also represents symbols of resurrection and immortality.
The Law of Attraction
Hypnosis
Please note that we have NOT strayed from the subject at hand. Hypnosis bears much in common with the tools of the secret. Hypnosis requires focus, visualization, and relaxation.
Hypnosis is done to focus inward and the results are within the hypnotized subject. Let’s take a look at several uses of hypnosis:
Appetite reduction Smoking cessation Obsessive/Compulsion relief Pain reduction
Addictions
These are deeply root habits and compulsions. Changing the subconscious positively helps build a more powerful conscious or “waking life”.
The basics of hypnosis are simple. Hypnosis is a trance-like state produced during deep relaxation. It gives the hypnotist access to the deeply influential subconscious mind. During this state, the subconscious mind is NOT a sponge.
A person who has hypnotized dozens of people can tell you that the subconscious mind can resist, lie and even counter commands given to it. The person must be willing to carry out commands. Let me give you a transcript from a session:
Hypnotist: Stella, where are you from? Stella: I am from Texas.
Hypnotist: Stella, where do you go to college?
Stella: I go to South Texas College, STC. Hypnotist: Stella, do you have a boyfriend?
Stella:
(At this point the session has strayed from its point. The point of the session was to cure her fear of confined spaces.)
Hypnotist: Stella, do you like men? Stella:
..Yes.
Hypnotist: Stella, would you like to lose weight?
Stella: Yes
Hypnotist: Stella, do you eat anything other than fast-food like McDonalds, KFC, Domino’s Pizza, and Burger King ?
Stella: No.
Hypnotist: Would you like to eat more salad? Salad is good for you. Stella: No, I don’t like the taste.
Hypnotist: Salad will taste like hamburgers. Do you understand when you eat salad, it will taste like hamburgers.
Stella: Huh? That makes no sense! Hypnotist:
..

Now, let’s see how you can hypnotize your own inner self
Law Of Attraction Basics & Fundamentals
Ancient teachers, mystics and philosphers have tried to teach us about the great workings of the Law Of Attraction. Great works have been written that gives us a sneak at its power. However, the true meaning, power and role of the Law Of Attraction still eludes many. But know this, whether you understand the law or not it is still working every minute, of every hour, of everyday in your life and the lives of everyone else. Isn’t it time to learned how to use this great Universal Principle for your own benefit?
The Law Of Attraction at its very basic level states that everything is created by thought and that thought attracts to itself physical things, people, situations and circumstances. Your thoughts are attracting these things in this very moment!
Having said that, you should also be aware that it is not only the outer material world that is affected by our creative abilities. Our bodies and our very personalities, characteristics, physical, mental and emotional attributes are all created by our thinking. Are you creating the life you desire & becoming the person you wish to be or are you like Job and bringing upon you all manner of woes because you are giving your attention to them? Perhaps you are even identifying yourself as a victim and refusing to acknowledge the Law and use it consciously!
Although the movie ‘The Secret’ told us this law was hidden for centuries. The Law Of Attraction is not really as much of a secret as they think. Having been in existence since the very begining of time, it is an unyielding, never bending, unbreakable Uiversal Rule. You cannot escape it! There is a great body of evidence that suggests mankind has known about, and utilised, the great Law for about 7000 years. However, the teaching of universal truths did become clouded for many hundreds, if not thousands, of years by greedy self-serving dogmatists that wished to keep control of the masses and was actually banned at one point.
It was largely at the beginning of the 20th century that the general public started to become aware of this great law due to the diligence, fortitude, integrity and grace of writers such as James Allen (1864-1912), Napoleon Hill (1883-1970) and Charles Haanel (1866-1949).
Wallace D. Wattles, born in 1860 and died in 1911, was also a forward thinking man. In the masterpiece, ‘The Science Of Getting Rich’ by Wattles, the author tells us “There is a thinking stuff from which all things are made, which, in its original state, permeates, penetrates, and fills the interspaces of the universe. A thought in this substance produces the thing that is imaged by the thought.” How revolutionary that statement was in 1910.
Haanel set out in a 24 part correspondence course, which is now condensed into one volume called “The Master Key System”, a complete guide to successfully using the Law Of Attraction! It was banned by the Church in 1933 due to its revelations. This is allegedly the book Bill Gates read before he created Microsoft!
Napoleon Hill revealed Andrew Carnegie’s great Secret to the world – that thoughts create things – when he wrote “Think & Grow Rich” in 1937 (although it had taken him 25 years to complete).
James Allen wrote his famous work in 1912 and in “As a Man Thinketh” he tells people that “mind is the master-weaver, both of the inner garment of character and the outer garment of circumstance, and that, as they may have hitherto woven in ignorance and pain they may now weave in enlightenment and happiness.”
However, although the teachings have been around for thousands of years and they have been readily and easily available to the general public for almost a century the great majority of people do not take the time to learn the workings of probably the most powerful physical law in the Universe.
I think you owe it to yourself to delve deeper into this mysterious Universe and learn as much as you can about the laws that govern your life. When you truly understand the Law Of Attraction and begin to work with it for you personal advantage, I promise you, your life will change in fantastic, unexpected and unlimited ways.
Begin now to utilise this gift and construct in your imagination the life you really want to live. You must find ways and means for removing your own self-imposed limitations, beliefs and resistances.

Let There Be Light in Your Bedroom!
Winter Solstice is the shortest day of the year, and then the light slowly starts returning to the northern hemisphere. But that still means we have many months of the year when our bedrooms get very little or no light in the mornings, when we get up, and are dark long before we go to sleep. If you’re someone who gets blue without enough light in your life, try brightening up your bedroom by making it feel like summer!
Think summer. Light colors, light fabrics. Take down the dark, heavy drapes and let the windows bring in as much light as possible during the day. When evening approaches, pull down the blinds and close the sheer curtains, which will look delightful in the glow of your warm bedroom lighting. Use soft white or pink-tinted bulbs in your lamps, or the full spectrum bulbs that replicate natural sunlight. They can make a huge difference in how you feel!
One way to optimize the light that comes in during the day is to position a large mirror on a wall across from or corner to a window. The mirrors will reflect sunlight and bounce it around the room. Hanging crystals in your windows is another way to bounce light around the room at certain times of day — except this will be like having rainbows all around you!
Make your bedroom feel lighter simply by eliminating or moving around your furniture to have more open space available. Use colors for your bedding that complement the summer scheme, such as celadon, aquamarine, a hint of orange and yellow, or nautical navy blue and white stripes. A floral-pattern or green rug on the floor will evoke summertime thoughts, as will adding some flowering plants, greenery, or vases of flowers. A large tropical plant with palm leaves gives an instant feeling of warmth!
If you have a fireplace in the bedroom, try decorating the mantle with shells or framed photos taken in the summer. A painting or photo above the mantle of the beach, a boat on water, or lush foliage can add to the effect.
Try a few of these suggestions to brighten your bedroom and give you a taste of summertime — even during the dark days of winter!
Prosperous Living
Western Engagement Rings and Wedding Bands
Western engagement rings and wedding bands can capture a spirit of American romanticism for couples. Do you dream of riding off into the sunset and living happily ever after? Western-theme engagement and wedding rings may be just perfect for you.
Among these Western themes engagement and wedding rings are horseshoe rings. For the horse-riding couple or the people who wish to invoke good luck in their marriage and lives, these horseshoe rings capture the essence of Western and American romance. They can capture the spirit of the horse or the spirit of the free-roaming cowboy and cowgirl. Or, they might just capture the spirit of rusticana. They might come in a horseshoe shaped mounting of the ring or in the creation of a horseshoe design using diamonds or other precious gems. Anything from a diamond solitaire to turquoise can be use for the stone, while the usual precious metals of choice are sterling silver, or white or yellow gold. Couples can get matching horseshoe rings or antique-style rings such as the now very stylish old European cut diamond engagement and wedding bands.
Bennett Fine Jewelry, Danny’s Jewelry, and Shepler’s are among the very best who offer horseshoe rings. They can each offer you many different amazing variations on the decorous use of horseshoes and horseshoe patterns.
But the horseshoe engagement or wedding ring is not the only Western motif that you can get if you want this brand of romance to dazzle your relationship.
Typically, semi-precious gemstones are what fit the Western ring style. Among the most prominent of these are:
Hematite; jade; jasper; mother of pearl; obsidian; pyrite; tanzanite; topaz; agate; opal; onyx; turquoise; peridot; and coral.
Western style engagement and wedding rings are meant to reflect individuality. Birthstones or colored gemstones and personal symbolism are much more easy to accent when one moves away from the traditional diamonds and typical traditional styles. The Western rings can also be an alternative to a couple that doesn’t have a lot of extra money to spend on engagement and wedding rings.
The semi-precious gemstones of the Western style rings are also easier to find and give a much wider varietal appeal, making them a lot more diverse to meet more personalized tastes. Remember that semi-precious gemstones are really no different in value or beauty than the precious gems. Emotional investments in tradition are all that separate them, along with traditional levels of availability. The gemstones that were reserved for royalty — diamonds, emeralds, rubies, and sapphires — were the “precious” stones. Today, we mostly think of diamonds as the precious stones, even though they have also become more easily attained.
So, the Western theme in engagement and wedding rings can be simultaneously romantic, individually customized, and affordable.
