What does it take to visualize something in your mind and feel it so strongly that you know in your heart of hearts, that is what you are supposed to create, and then bring it into reality? Many times fear of being rejected, not feeling smart enough, not enough finances, or other excuses, prevent us from moving ahead and manifesting our visions and dreams. You know a vision is inspiring when you feel equal amounts of excitement and fear about “what if” this dream could become a reality. It takes courage to some extent, but anytime you choose to serve the greater good, I have always found leads to fruition.

Why is it so difficult for many, myself included, to leap off the precipice of indecision and venture into the unknown? The fear factor immobilizes and also provides us with the excuse to not take action. So what does it take one to overcome fear? Any person can face fear, but oftentimes when there is no escape route or option, leaping becomes the only solution. Why does it take so long to create a sense of urgency, and how can you manifest your visions without this added incentive?

Besides fear preventing one from pursuing their dreams, complacency and contentment also stall one from achieving their goals. The reason is that, if life is calm and tranquil, why would we want to upset the apple cart and create unnecessary perceived stress into our lives? This is where many advocate the utilization of motivation to get the job done, however because motivation comes from an external source, the sustainability of the action is usually short lived. One must tune into inspiration and find a deeper internal reason to take action, helping one to overcome any obstacles or pains that come across the path to manifesting their visions.

Being truly aligned in your values and possessing clarity of intent, are the necessary catalysts in helping manifest your visions. Determination and dedication are by-products of these two elements. A clear mission and sense of purpose become the internal drivers providing the fuel and sustenance when one hits the proverbial wall, and encounters obstacles along the way. Being understanding that the journey towards manifesting a vision will have its ups and downs, and twist and turns, will help one navigate through times of hardship and frustration.

This was the case for creating my phone application, “Infinite Body Awareness.” Practice members often ask me questions such as, “What does pain in my right knee represent?” or “Why do I always throw out my back whenever I don’t pay attention to how I lift heavy objects?” Over the past sixteen years, I have worked on thousands of people, who have come to me in search of pain relief or to address different health ailments. I have learned that the secret to discovering what is causing one’s disharmony, lies in the quality of questions that one asks oneself, being brutally honest with the answers, and having a sincere desire to take ownership and responsibility of one’s healing and happiness.

Besides prompting by practice members to create something to help them understand the underlying mental/emotional components of health ailments, body aches, or bizarre health crises, I too yearned to help people discover a way to take ownership of their bodies and lives. My mission to empower people to trust themselves, and make decisions that help them achieve ease and harmony was the internal driver for me to make this app a reality. It has taken 16 years of practice, going over people’s histories, and helping them to link body pains or ailments to life experiences and perceptions, which has given me the body of information in my app and second book, Infinite Body Awareness. My challenge in creating the app and second book was organizing and attempting to explain the mind-body correlations with health conditions. I wanted to create a resource for people to access as well as give “action steps”, for those who wanted to apply the mind-body connection in healing their maladies.

Over the course of two years, there were moments I was inspired to write and organize my thoughts; there were other moments of non-inspiration. I was frustrated at times after spending a day of writing and organizing, only to reread what I wrote and have only half a page of good content. Along the way, I learned to ask for, and be open to receive help and assistance. Without the assistance of Erin Ushijima Creative Assistance, my app and book would be far from complete. Understanding that we all have timing and rhythms, assisted me in keeping on course as well. However, through the odyssey of getting my app created and released, also had its twists and turns. What I had determined as the release date for my app to be in March and then in April, only to have it finally released in May were all learning lessons.

It taught me patience and also to reassess, then refine my vision, so it was absolutely clear. The old saying, “When life gives you lemons, make lemonade,” is so true and valid. Each time an obstacle arose, it forced me to pause, make the necessary changes, and move forward once more. Always remind yourself of the bigger picture and by keeping that in mind, and knowing that your vision can serve the many, will be the lighthouse in the midst of the storm. Believing in yourself, your ability, and your vision to provide service to the many, will help you to manifest your visions.
