Making change and breaking the mould!
Tuesday, November 17, 2009 at 08:52PM Well I am here in NYC and I love this place although I have to say it's not the same without Janey, my best friend... we have kinda adopted it as 'Our' place and so to be here without her, is just not the same.
However, I decided to stay on the East Coast this week as it would have meant 3 days off, with 2 days flying forwards and backwards, so Mike and Jonesy have Charlie and I have spent most of the time in my room, working...
Yes, my days have consisted of, yoga, meditation and writing my book... oooppps I missed the part where I had a massage and have been beaten black and blue, yet she assures me I will feel wonderful tomorrow!
But seriously it's been a retreat for me, and I hibernated in my room for over 24 hour, over looking central park channeling messages for my new book, which is due to be submitted in January... so I am working hard at it.
Some of the messages surprised me today, and i have been working with Master Guides and Elders today and they have been taking me through the process of dying... and no, I haven't been heading over to the white light, they have been showing me the process of what happens when we die and also the connection to 'God'
It's been enlightening, and what has surprised me is when Josiah, my guide was talking about my past life... which by the way, I can't wait to see Dr Brian Weiss at the weekend and tell him what was said. Anyway I was informed that in a past life I gave up my life so that someone else could have theirs and that there is a history about this.
It's incredible because somewhere in your life, whether it's this one or the next you have to break a pattern, not only n our past lives, but also this life that we lead, we have to break disruptive patterns that lead us down a pathway that we don't want to take.
And it's interesting, have you ever wondered why you make the same mistakes over and over again... and when you do, you have to break the mould you have to realize what your pattern is and look beyond that and see how it can be changed.
We all have the answers within us and it's up to us to find out our own pathway... and if that means changing and stepping out of the comfort zone then so be it. We all have to do it, we all have to grow and this is one way of doing it, stepping out and learning and not relying on our default mode and going back to what we know.
So change the routine, and change the way you do things, shimmy it all up and make changes. You don't have to be drastic but gently does it and you never know what you may feel or where you may end up!
Much love and I'll be on Hayhouse Radio tomorrow so tune in, I will be helping you connect to your higher self and help you with your enlightened pathway!

Lisa, that blog was speaking straight to me. I am going through some changing and I get fearful and think about going back to what "did not" work because it's what I know, I want the changes, I embrace changing but when I hit a bump I'm tempted to stall. Thank you for sharing.
Lisa, smart move to give the extra time to yourself in NYC. You deserve the down time in between all the work. I'm excited to hear what you've shared on your writing process and I am so looking forward to the book. I'll also be listening to you tomorrow on the radio. Enjoy Tampa and all the best. I needed just what you wrote today and appreciate you for sharing so candidly. :D
Love to you,
Carlos (Sunny)
Lisa, honey, what a heavy topic and I so wish I had the energy tonight to process it. I will tackle it in the morning. In the mean time, I too am on the East coast and my lady it is late and time for bed. The sleep part has to happen to for you to be/stay healthy too ya know. So, go to bed! ;)
Good night and the sweetest of dreams to you and yours.

Time for reflection and changes comes to us all...it took until I turned 40 but it happened...
Looking back I think my NDE might have been the start, although it took me a while to realise this...I still slip back sometimes but I soon pull myself up and I am forever grateful for the glimpse of joy, I have had and the memories given to me...to hold on to...
Continue to enjoy your time, writing and listening ... we are all really looking forward to reading your new book, when it is published !!!
I am hoping to tune in at 3.00 am my time !!!! LOL....try being the operative word !!!! haha
Love

Dearest Lisa,
Once again, what an amazing post. I would love to know the details of the past life in which you gave your life so someone else could live. Also, would love you to share with us the process of our passing and how we connect with God. You have such an awesome gift and it is so wonderful that you have chosen the path that you have because without you, we would not be able to share in your experiences. I am assuming this information which you are receiving will be put into your book... can't wait to read it!!
I have also been trying to change the pattern of my life, which is a mould that has been pretty difficult to break as these patterns have been passed down from my dad to myself and to some of my siblings. However, I am so proud of myself because I have managed to break the pattern and am feeling absolutely great. As I was saying to someone yesterday in the chat room, it has taken me over 50 years to reach this point, and so the fact that I feel I have won the battle is such a relief for me and such a huge accomplishment. I have to tell you, two of the main things that have given me the strength to make these changes for good this time, is discovering you, Lisa, and buying my Doreen Virtue, Daily Guidance From Your Angels, and the key factor that I have learnt, is to love myself unconditionally as God loves me and that we are all beautiful souls that live on forever. As a result of this knowledge I have stopped putting myself down and given myself permission to be happy and opened my heart to receiving and giving love.
I know I can sometimes write longer comments than your blog... haha... so I will stop at this point, suffice to say, THANK YOU LISA for helping me change my life. I will be eternally grateful.
Hugs and blessings,
Jeanette
Hello Lisa,
I'l listen to you radio show tomorrow or over the weekend.
I really look forward to reading your book when it comes out.
I'm also going through a few small changes in my life.
Its really easy to get back in to the routine that you use to be in. I some times get back into the old routines which is not good at all.
Thank you!!
Hi my love,
This is a short one as its getting late and I have to get to work.
Thanks for an enlightening blog. As I have said before you always hit home.
I am glad that you are taking this week to yourself. A much needed break. Can't wait to
read your new book!
I must go now.
Love to you my friend,
Mary
Wise words, Lisa, and I've had to shake it up a bit to break patterns as well lately. It's so much easier to stay in the pattern - or rather, it takes less energy so we tend to stay there. Pow! Break out and make it what it should be, not what you're used to! Am glad you are in your little cocoon writing, and isn't it wonderful that you can do your radio show from anywhere? Perfect!!
As Always Lisa... THANK YOU :)
May God Help us to Make the Right Changes.
Amen
Cant wait to read the new book sweetheart
Big Yorky Hugs XXX
always
Keith
LOVVVEEE
YOU LISA.
Now I am scared to do this change thing. LOL
I need YOU!!! I know, I must forge this myself lol
Great BLog Lisa!
Dear Lisa, will try to make gentle changes. Wishing you all the best with your new book. Would appreciate that alot on learning how to connect with the higher self.
Thanks for teaching us, Lisa.
Have heard about Dr Brian Weiss before. He did a book called 'Many Masters, Many lives'. He also has a new book out about souls. Interesting stuff. :-)
Great blog Lisa, it really helps ;-)
We all have decisions that we're agraid to take... so now I know what to do ;-)
Have a great day in NYC !
Lots of love,
Lise
HI Lovely Lisa,
Profound thought path. Tying up loose ends then one can flow freely about the cabin???
taking care of something the last 2 hours, and missed you. I went to Hayhouse and did not see you, or a "listen to you". That was about 12:25 pm EST.
it's now 12:37...maybe you are still on, (I will check later) but I saw the list but did not see you.
With Love and Big Hugss....
YOU are coming here soon...see you then.
ooo xxx
Dear Lisa
It is a time for change and I am reading Neal D Walsh' book; "When everything changes, change everything" to help me through.
SO looking forward to your book no 2!
Brian Weiss' first book "Many lives many masters" helped me years ago when my daughter was bringing up her past life and I just felt like a bad parent as she mentioned her other family etc... His book made me understand my daughter and the cycle of life and that changed my life..
Books do change lives and beliefs and help people heal. Thank you for writing another gift to ....probably millions!!
Love from way up up north (where we are still waiting for you to come visit)
All of NORWAY will be there to show you, if you come!!.
Dear Lisa,
Had to just mention that I listened to the audio of your show in Birmingham tonight while I was cooking supper... jeepers, what a tearjerker... I was bawling my eyes out because of that poor mother that didn't want her son, Neenan to leave. She was sobbing so much my heart went out to her. I would imagine there wasn't a dry eye in the audience either. Then you were in tears because your nan came through as well. I can only say thank God that there are wonderful people like you around to give these poor people some comfort.
You also mentioned that John Edwards sent you flowers and that you had them in your dressing room. He is actually in South Africa at the moment, doing shows between the 19th and the 22nd, but only in Johannesburg, and unfortunately it is impossible for me to get there to see him this time around... aw, bummer. I have been trying to coax my one friend to go and see him because she lives there and she has lost someone very precious to her, but her hubby thinks it is hogwash so I can't force the issue.
I am taking your nan's advice and going to say God Bless lovely lady. I wish you everything you wish yourself.
Hugs,
Jeanette
HI lisa !
Thank you for every blog and surely this one!
The illness and death of my husband, i felt, was also to help me grow...I sensed/realised that after his death. As you did.
Then really started for me spiritual life , it was a hugh present back for me and the children, although our sadness. We are grateful. Now this strong feeling left me but his presence stays.
Anyway it made my life !!!
It changed it and it was stepping out of the "comfort" zone to....get into a much more comfortable zone ..... and ever since I semm to have to go into new zones....PPfftt.....its like I never stop working, lol !
Hope to meet you after the show on friday (in Tampa). Have a wonderful time on the radio and btw you feel kicking after your massage !?!
love always, Lisa !!!
Marlies (frm Belgium and now in FL (woohoo) staying with friends)
Lisa -- it is so amazing to me that you wrote THIS particular blog entry. It was exactly what I neeed to hear....all of it. THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART for your divine inspiration, and for passing that along to us. I am very grateful to read this entry today. If you only knew (& maybe you do)!
NYC is my favorite city of all time. I lived there for over 7 years, and my heart is there. That city & I went through a lot together -- and she is awesome. Im glad that you had some down time for yourself, to be productive & pampered -- it probably helped the writing process along, to feel nurtured. Hope the B&B's go away! Ive had those massages before.....lol.
Sending love & light your way~~I love the east coast, and Im glad you do too! Very cool! xoxoxo
The radio show was great.
Thanks, Lisa.
peace....deb t./illinois
Hi Lisa,
By chance we have our HS working on us...
Otherwise we wouldn't get out of our comfort zone easily! LOL!
Also, what i think about life is ....patterns are part of it so they can be tools to our HS and for us. To help us to make the changes that we really need.
Friendly yours on the East coast,
I cannot wait for your book!!!!! I'm so glad you are doing this book Lisa, you have no idea!!!!! Thank you for writing it amongst everything else you have to do. I wish I could see Dr Weiss, lucky girl:) God Bless and enjoy this focused quiet time and Christmas in NYC. Isn't everything beautiful all decorated!?! Coll
PS I hope you really detail the patterns betwen lives. I knew that has happened with me but I feel like I've messed up. i hope it's not a pass or fail, I hope if we're trying it counts.
Dear Lisa, hi :-), today I read about a girl (30 something years of age), who used to smoke about 20 cigs a day. She has spent half her life smoking like that. Imagine 20 cigs being smoked a day.
What is beautiful about this girl is that she has managed to quit smoking after joining a support group. It must be very brave, the day that she decided to quit smoking. Her parents had both passed away from cancer when she was in her twenties and I guess that the smoking became her clutch/ comfort.
But today she has started a support group to help others to quit smoking. It really is something to admire. People who are able to break patterns and turn their lives around. For myself, my will is not that strong. My secret addiction is chocolate when I need comfort. But I will try and take baby steps to change my life. I know that my will power is not that strong. So I will try not to set too high expectations of myself. Will try to be gentle with self. Wishing all of you the best in life. Take care. :-)
Lovely Lisa,
Would you please, if you can, get some information about suicide for your new book? There are many of us who have been touched by it, either through friends or family, as well as in past lives (pretty sure my most recent past-life was a suicide and it took me 20 years this life to overcome the urge, once-and-for-all). All I know for sure is that it is NOT a way out, we have to come back and deal with whatever it was we thought we couldn't before (rather, we choose to), and that this time for me, I knew that I would not be allowed to take my own life again (now that is breaking a pattern!). It just wouldn't work. Period. Boy, did that used to make me mad, but I'm sure it is something I agreed to, before coming back. I just know that now, no matter what, I'm here for the long-haul, and finally, glad to be here- I WANT to be here!!! One big plus is that I'm not afraid to die, having spent so much time not wanting to live. That's just my 2c, for whatever that is worth. However, I would love to have your insight on this, as I'm sure many others would. Thanks for everything, Lisa. ps- find a less sadistic massage therapist, LOL- "no pain, no gain" is NOT necessary and bruises are unacceptable!!!
Love,
A Serious Lisa Fan
