Discover the joy in life
Posted by Intuition Girl
Dear Joan Marie
I want to thank you for the Monday Morning Inspirational Messages. I really look forward to receiving them each week. Some how the Universe knows my needs and when I read it, the message is exactly what I needed for that moment. I am looking to fill my life with more “JOY.” I don’t seem to be accomplishing it right now. You always sound so upbeat and positive so I thought you might be able to help me discover the way to feel more joyful. I look forward to your comments.
Thank you again,
Inez Petre
Answer
Dear Inez:
Thank you for your kind words.
Joy is a feeling that fills the soul and causes your entire being to become uplifted and alive. There is a beautiful piece written by Bob Perks titled, “I wish you enough.” And when I reflect on this inspirational passage, I imagine the sun’s glorious rays touching my face; and for just one small moment, the world seems to stand still. My one wish to you, however, is joy. Could you visualize your life to be one filled with peace and happiness? Yes – when we rediscover the joy within our hearts, it’s a transformational experience. Suddenly we find healing, strength, and the wisdom to know the difference to what really matters in life.
Joy is like the eternal flame illuminating the torch of your life light. It is never far away because it resides within our hearts. Stop for just one second and close your eyes. Take in a deep, long breath and feel the surge of life entering your body. Now slowly release the toxic and negative emotions by exhaling through your mouth. Can you feel the release of anxiety and tension? That’s joy. It’s working in you, through you, and all around you.
Joy is truly what we make it. We can choose to live in fear, grief, and sorrow — or live in joy. When we live in joy, we no longer hold onto old and destructive blockages from the past. We begin to see the world with a renewed set of eyes. We begin skipping over life’s little roadblocks, and no longer do we feel the need to dwell on negative situations. Today, I wish you joy, because living in joy is what enables you to move forward in life, to learn acceptance, and to find peace and happiness in all things.
Until we speak again, I am

Trying to lose weight
Posted by Intuition Girl
Dear Joan Marie,
I have been trying for a long time to lose weight but I love food too much and find it really, really hard. I get to a level then I treat myself and gain a few pounds all over again. I find it to be really hard to do and I could use some helpful hints and thoughts. Maybe you know of a magic pill that will get my head in the right direction?
I hope to hear from you,
Frieda Harris
Answer
Dear Frieda:
Believe me, I know how you feel and I am sure there are many others out there that can commiserate with you. This is a worldwide problem and the only solution that I can offer you is this: You are the problem and you are the solution! Now don’t get angry with me.
One of the primary motives why people may want to lose weight is for health purposes. Over eating of food is an addiction. It takes effort, willpower, and a 360-degree change in behavior and your mindset in order to be able to win the battle. The main reason as to why some folks do not succeed in resolving this addiction is because it’s difficult to stop doing all the things they’re accustomed to doing. They’ve become complacent with the normalcy of how they’ve trained themselves to think and live.
Whether we choose to drink too much, eat too much, or smoke cigarettes – it is a choice that we have made for ourselves. The good news is that life offers us many choices. While we may have made one choice, we can easily make another choice to undo the harm that we may have created for ourselves.
Are you prepared to re-train your thinking? When you set your mind into transformation mode, you are ready to redesign your destiny and live the life you’ve always wanted to live. Changing our behaviors takes commitment, dedication and a willingness to reshape our mindset into believing that we CAN accomplish what it is we want.
Truly, if you are steadfast in changing your thoughts, you can change your life. Are you ready to go the distance and transform your thinking today? When you finally make the decision to look, feel and be thinner, you will be rewarded with a healthier, happier and more successful lifestyle. You can be successful when you take the first step to achieving your goals – change your thoughts for a better you! Start observing the way thin people eat, exercise and behave…you just might find a role model to follow.

I feel challenged
Posted by Intuition Girl
Hello Joan Marie:
Sometimes I want to scream and have a tantrum. I am a grown woman and know better but it doesn’t stop me from the way I feel—which is beaten and challenged.
I need some help so I can keep focused [as you so often say] My father used to say that he grew up in the school of hard knox and to tell you the truth, I feel as though I am following in his foot prints. Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Veronica V, Oklahoma
Answer:
Dear Veronica:
Whether we believe it or not, we grow stronger through adversity. Instead of beating ourselves up over perceived difficulties, we need to find resolve and learn to use “adversity” to our own advantage. More often than not, we encounter hurdles to reflect on what it is we are doing in life, where we’re going, and what we need to be doing. Sometimes, we keep running into the same encounters because we have not yet comprehended the message we were supposed to learn the first time. That’s not necessarily negative; though we may perceive it to be.
It is important to note, too, that while we may face adversity on many levels and at different stages in our lives, we should never be partner to creating our own drama. We must rise above the adversity that comes into our lives, and take a responsible view of what that event or person(s) is trying to convey to us.
In most cases, adversity shows up to challenge our spirituality, our mentality, and sometimes our physical being. We find strength and intuitive knowledge in our inner consciousness to sort reality from drama. When we do, the real truth that surfaces is a sage-like wisdom to overcome all obstacles. The key, however, is being able to discern whether or not we want to learn from the experience or not.
When we choose to learn from adversity, we are one step closer to becoming enlightened and one rung higher on the ladder of the strong character you’d like to portray and be.
Your degree at the School of Hard Knox should be proudly displayed. The education and experience you receive in life is all part of the grand adventure of becoming part of the positive flow of Universal energy. You are what you create, and adversity is simply part of the equation to fulfilling personal and spiritual growth on all levels.
Do not give in to the lower vibrations, instead honor your courage and strength. You will achieve greatness by overcoming the adversities of life through your sheer willpower and determination to succeed.

The significance of rainbows
Posted by Intuition Girl
Good Day Joan Marie,
My 17-year old Granddaughter sees rainbows a lot, even at night. We were wondering what the significance was?
Thanks for all the good you do.
Many Blessings,
Denise Larsen
Answer
Dear Denise:
Throughout the ages, different cultures and religions have expressed their belief and meaning as to the appearance of a rainbow. In each one there seems to be a common thread that it represents good and possibly blessings and magic from the Universe.
When I see a rainbow it causes me to stop and reflect on life and my journey at that particular time. It can mean you are on the right path. I look at rainbows as a promising sign, a symbolism for my hopes and dreams. It has been said that good luck comes to those who dream rainbow dreams.
I feel that your granddaughter is also able to see auras that are around all of us. She is probably intuitive as all children are. Encourage her to use her imagination and see what she creates from the rainbows.
I suggest that this young girl reflect on her own thoughts and draw a conclusion that fills her heart. She will know if it fits for her or not. It could mean that this is the time for her to follow her dreams and feel the power of creation supporting her all the way.
I hope that helps. Until we speak again, I am

Break the cycle and become a leader
Posted by Intuition Girl
Dear Joan Marie,
I seem to be attracting sickness and pain for my self and for those in my family. It is certainly not what I want but none-the-less here it is. I need to break the cycle that I am experiencing.
Please help me and give me some suggestions. I am ready to listen.
Thank you,
Kelly K from Phoenix
Answer
Dear Kelly:
You are awesome!! You have already made the decision that you are a leader. When painful situations come into our lives, I do not believe they are present to punish us but to awaken us to become more fully present and grounded in the moment. Sometimes our mind become cluttered with too many thoughts which leads us to overload. If you have time to meditate it would be helpful. If not, when you go to bed at night ask your guardian angels to clear the fog and help you to understand the real purpose of these unfortunate happenings. What I see for you and so many is that an old experience from your past is coming to the surface to be healed.
Since you are clearly ready for new beginnings, I am asking you to write out, in detail, how is it you wish to feel every single day. Can you right now in the midst of the pain go within and declare how it is you want to feel each day? Feel the sunlight living in your body and allow this energy to fill you with warmth and love.
Start today to train your cells to feed off of feelings of relief and joy instead of pain. Since you are ready to create a new story you must do something new every day to enhance the good in your life.
Many Blessings,
Joan Marie Intuition Girl
