Juicy Joy – A Personal Development Book of Authenticity and Self-Love

I’m celebrating Louise Hay’s birthday with her this weekend. What a deliciously wonderful sentence to get to write. For millions all over the planet, Louise has been the catalyst to a vastly improved existence. How must it feel, at 85, to look back on a life so abundantly well-lived?

Most of us in this New Thought community (a community we have Louise to thank for, in large part) are dedicated to spreading messages of love and compassion with the intention of raising the consciousness of humankind to a more peaceful, connected level. But how many of us can even imagine creating the kind of global infiltration of juicy goodness that Louise is personally responsible for?

Her goal in establishing Hay House—now the largest, most active publisher of New Thought material in the world—was obviously to uplift and inspire as many people as she possibly could. So the question becomes: Did its success surpass her wildest dreams? My guess is no. My guess is that it matched her dreams precisely.

Louise has achieved her miraculous legacy steadily and gracefully, by consistently applying one simple principle. It’s the principle she built her career upon: belief. She’s bestowed the invaluable gifts of clarity, joy, and desperately-needed self-love upon millions of people, simply by believing, unwaveringly, that she could do that. (“I Can Do It,” said Louise.) Imagine how much we, together, could achieve if we too maintained that kind of pure, unfaltering faith.

One of her many popular affirmations goes, “I know what I send out comes back to me.” If that’s true (and it is) then Louise Hay is without any doubt the most love-wealthy soul walking this earth. I can’t wait to see what she does next.

Some people “go” through life; and other people “grow” through life. The term personal alchemy describes the ability to take a piece of dirt, roll it around a few times, and fashion it into a pearl. This is what an oyster does. Personal alchemy is what your grandmother called turning lemons into lemonade. It’s what old wizards described as turning straw into gold.

Two caterpillars were crawling along a tree branch one day when a butterfly flew overhead. One caterpillar said to the other, “You’ll never get me up in one of those things.”

It celebrates your unlimited potential to grow, blossom, and evolve—in spite of everything.

Learn right now, by clicking here, how to break through that invisible force field that’s separating you from the delicious adventure your life is meant to be. All you Juicy Joy fans know this phenomenon as your “Filter” — the subject of Step 2 in Juicy Joy – 7 Simple Steps to Your Glorious, Gutsy Self. My friend and mentor Dr. Christian Pankhurst has named this pesky neurological defense mechanism “Stuart.” (Ah, that cheeky British wit!) The good news is that he is a master at disarming our Stuarts!
Many of you have heard me rave about Christian in my blog and Facebook posts. This dude is a self-dev rock star. And I’m not the only one raving. Neale Donald Walsch, author of the bestselling Conversations with God series, says “Christian knows how to articulate these messages as well as, if not better than I do. He is a profound source of clarity and understanding of the richness and depth of this material.”
All of us on the personal development path occasionally reach those points where we feel stuck and ask, “Is this it?” This content-packed, FREE sampling of Christian’s work will teach you how to get unstuck and move your life forward to the next level. Click here and enjoy!
Right now, Christian is taking questions on his blog so feel free to comment and interact with him in the space below the video. He’ll respond to you personally!

A common metaphysical assertion goes like this: Whatever shows up in your outer world is simply a reflection of whatever you’re holding in your inner world. And there’s a corollary to it it that says that when you’re really ready to break through to a new level of consciousness, all the lingering bits inside you that are NOT aligned with that new level will start popping up in your outer world to be dealt with – a housecleaning of sorts. It’s like the Universe arranges a round of rapid-fire challenges for you, just to give you the opportunity to deal with them authentically and fully at last, so that their hold on you can be released.

I truly feel cherished and loved by the Universe, so I know that these painful events and difficult choices are always a gift; an opportunity for me to push through to a deeper place of self-acceptance and self-love. I’m in one of these phases right now and I’m committed to viewing it as a teacher. I must have been a ready student, for this teacher to appear.

And I’m hoping that this metaphysical phenomenon works the same way for everyone because some people I love are wounded and I want Rumi’s “light” to enter them. We can’t do that for other people – not really. They have to be ready themselves, and they have to want the light.

I’m so grateful that I had the foresight to plan some student-time for myself next month. I’ll spend a week early in November with Christian Pankhurst – an amazing coach and mentor that I recommend wholeheartedly.

Then, November 12-14, I’ll be at Hay House’s I Can Do It Conference in Tampa. This phenomenal weekend of inspiring teachers always leaves me expanded, excited, Juicy Joyful, and deeply, deeply grateful to be a part of my beloved personal-development industry.
