Rev. Michael Bernard Beckwith of Agape Fame Shares a New Twist on an Age-old Question – VidetteV TV


This past weekend I was invited to see Reverend Michael Bernard Beckwith speak at the Agape Spiritual Center in Culver City, CA. He and his wife, Rickie Byers Beckwith founded the Center 29 years ago, and since then, Rev. Michael has, not only built a membership at his center of a reported 8,000 members, but has also become an author, international spiritual leader, an expert featured in the movie, The Secret, and a popular online radio host on Hay House Radio. I LOVE his show, by the way be sure to tune in! I have listened to some of his CD s and have read a couple of his books, but seeing him in person? W-O-W! Mind-blowing. On Sunday, Rev. Michael shared ONE question that had me contemplating the rest of the day, and even now, two days later. It s an age-old question we probably ask several times a day, but with this insight, you won t ask it again without being steeped in awareness about YOUR OWN being AND be snapped right back into authentic happiness.

The Secret to the Journey to Authentic Happiness


    So, we all have heard the saying, The destination IS the journey. We get that .or do we? A few months ago, me and my family took a trip to the the Lost Coast of California. It s one of the hardest beaches in California to get to because there is no direct route. During our journey, I got a little life lesson, (funny how that works), and a big secret to life,  because it didn t feel like we d EVER find the Lost Coast. I realized, how the journey to authentic happiness is very similar. Authentic happiness happens when we are living fully, living our Personal Legend (as is explained in Paulo Coehlo s book, The Alchemeist, and truly living authentically happy.

The Secret to the Law Of Attraction


    The "Law of Attraction" is a well-used word in our modern culture, thanks to the movie, "The Secret." There is, however, something that is often missed from the guidance to visualize, create our dream boards, and to repeat affirm...

“How to Raise Your Vibration” Meditation to Experience Authentic Happiness


Last week, I had a friend who needed a little up-lifting. Life had happened and she was pretty down.  I explained that staying in her funk would just attract more funk to her life. She had a choice to make Stay in the funk and create more funk, or, choose to raise her energetic vibration. How the hell do I do that? she asked. My answer to her sparked an idea of how I could serve her and you! (HINT:  It s a guided meditation: Grab this FREE meditation HERE and it will teach you how to raise your vibration!) Here s the thing, everything is energy.   Your thoughts, emotions, actions and words are ALL energy. And, energy attracts like energy.  Like attracts like. Meaning, if you stay in the feeling and endless thoughts of the my life sucks funk, you will attract more my life sucks funk. And it will show up in an endless array of funky-funkiness, outside of the actual circumstance that has you feeling pissy you ll stub your toe, you ll back your car into the garage, your kids will be

Authentic Happiness in 3 Daily Steps - VidetteV TV

What is authentic happiness?



 I mean, REAL, authentic, happiness. Not the fake kind that most can smell a mile away, but the grounded, genuine, authentic happiness that people FEEL you emanating.



Authentic happiness is, unfortunately, not the norm in our culture, but that's what this community is hoping to change.

In this episode of "Modern Zen," I'm sharing three steps, taken daily, that will have you living in authentic happiness faster than a dog leaping on a dropped piece of meat!



 I encourage YOU to live in authentic happiness....and do the things that bring you that happiness....just like me creating these episodes! As you'll see in this episode, I embarrass myself royally, but have a great time doing it!

A Rainbow Loom Bracelet Video Leads to a Tool for Transformation?


    Think this is an ordinary Rainbow Loom Bracelet Video? Think again! This past weekend, I was introduced to the Rainbow loom. It was for a good cause; creating Rainbow Loom creations for children in Ecuador, but what happened later was rather .transformational. After my charitable Rainbow Loom experience, I found myself at home scrolling for Rainbow Loom Bracelet videos, Rainbow Loom rings and truly getting lost in all the creativity people have found in this current kid phenomenon. In doing so, I realized something rather interesting the Rainbow Loom served as a tool for transformation and gave me the idea to share it in this episode of Modern Zen. You never know where your next a-ha moment will come. Or when you will realize that almost everything in your current life can become a way to connect deeper to the ZEN that is always available to you! Watch this episode to see how an ordinary kid s toy can become a tool for transformation! Don t forget to Like, and SUBSCRIBE if you l

Like Jessie J Says, "It's Not About the Money" - VidetteV TV

During a family adventure to the Wanderlust Festival's, "Yoga in the City" in LA last weekend, I BLEW my debit card up!

I mean, it was flaming...like, burn-my-fingers H-O-T!!



As soon as my kids saw the crazy fun on the Santa Monica Pier...i.e. the ferris wheel, the cotton candy, the games, the food trucks...oh my...I think my debit card jumped out of my wallet and started doing it's own dance from card swiper to card swiper.



 We rocked out the day, and got into the car to drive home totally spent, sweaty, and plum-tuckered out from our rad day. And then....

...that quick feeling of dread as I knew the fun had passed and now I'd have to tell my husband about the blown budget....eeek!!!



 But, something happened later that night that reminded me of the Jessie J song, "It's Not About the Money!"

And, as a good song usually does to me, I couldn't help but break into the tune as I re-told the story on this episode of "Modern Zen."

2 Questions, 1-Minute a Day That WILL Change Your Life! - VidetteV TV





Visit this post on our blog at:  http://bit.ly/1j8Wtti



Want to know two questions that you can ask daily that WILL change your life?



Sound too good to be true?



Well, it's not, as long as you are willing to accept that life should be a hell of a lot simpler than we have been led to believe.



When we ask these two questions of ourselves every day, as busy moms, we will find ourselves more joy-filled, fulfilled, and much more pleasant to be around!



There are also some unexpected goodies that happen as well, in our families, when these two questions are asked and acted upon!  You can't NOT ask yourself these questions everyday!
