My Life as a student of "A Course in Miracles"

My Course book

I have been a serious student of "A Course in Miracles" for about 5 years now. Before that, I dabbled in the Course, but it wasn't until I had a major healing with my son that I made the decision to dive in fully and completely! 

I have made a commitment to my connection with the Divine through this teaching, and I am getting results!! I had been a "seeker" for more than 15 years before this point and I felt helpless in the face of my many challenges... nothing seemed to work... until now.

The results I am achieving through my daily commitment and practice are nothing short of miraculous, but it takes vigilance and dedication to both study and apply the teaching, not just read and analyze it. It is my #1 priority. The Course promises that if I make my connection to God/Love my primary purpose, all my needs and wants will be taken care of! It's hard to believe at the level of the world, but I find that the more I take responsibility for my experience, the more peaceful and loving my life becomes!

Another one of the beautiful things about this spiritual thought system is that it does not claim to be superior to other paths...  it is, quite simply, for those people who resonate with it. It's okay for others to have different paths because we are all loved equally by Source no matter what "course" we are taking... and we are all waking up together as the "one mind".

I have started combining my photography with ideas and phrases from "A Course in Miracles" and sharing them on my Instagram and Facebook Hug Healer pages... I welcome you to connect with me as I expand my role as a teacher and demonstrator of Love!

Transitioning into Newness

Spring has arrived… and with it an opportunity to open more fully into our true Unlimited Magnificence! What does that look like? This is the question I am asking myself… not in form, but in feeling and intention. Feelings are everything! After all, isn't every "thing" we want coming from the idea about how we think we will feel when we get it? So why don't we just go for the feeling?! Who cares what the form looks like if I'm happy and peaceful? And if I decide what my happiness is supposed to look like, might I be limiting myself to smallness? ...when I could be opening myself to infinite possibilities beyond my wildest imagination? 

So, my intention, as I move into spring, is to cultivate my connection to Divine Source as my guide… and flow in the direction of peace and inspiration in each and every moment… to an experience of new and unknown potential. 

I am just beginning to unfurl my wings!

Inspired Ideas

Sometimes a random thought enters my mind that starts to snowball as my enthusiasm and excitement builds… I've had many such thoughts in my lifetime that I like to call inspired ideas. 

Where do they come from? What purpose do they serve? I'm never 100% sure, but often my enthusiasm results in hours, days and weeks of taking action and pursuing my vision… yet aside from my spiritual growth work, all of my inspired ideas have fizzled and faded over time. 

I'm sure each one has been perfect for my evolution for as long as it lasted, but I always wonder if the next one will be "successfully" achieved… whatever that means! 

Some things I realize I need to ask myself each time:

• Who am I now?
• How is this new or different?
• What is my purpose in this endeavor?
• Why is it important?

One big shift for me has been surrender. If I have an inspired idea, I'm not the one in charge of its success. My willingness to take action is important, but I am focusing more on allowing the Divine to be my guide, and for inspiration to flow through me and not from me! I may not know how it will all happen, but I can be more present to my guidance every step of the way. And who knows… the result this time could be far beyond my wildest imagination!

Here's to dreaming BIG!! :)))

Imagination Meditation

Affirmation: "I am open and receptive to all the GOOD & ABUNDANCE in the Universe."
- Louise L. Hay ❤

Speaking affirmations is "the practice of positive thinking" in New Age terminology. In this regard, all we are doing is trying to convince ourselves of something we really don't believe!


To truly embody and experience a shift in perspective does not have anything to do with trying to trick ourselves into believing something we don't actually accept as true subconsciously. 


A much easier, authentic, and stress-free approach is to simply imagine what it might feel like to see things differently, while accepting and being honest about your doubts! 

I call this an "Imagination Meditation"

You can say to yourself: "Well, at some level I would like to believe that there is unlimited good and abundance in the universe, but right now that is not my experience in my life, and I probably have some blocks to being able to receive that.... but let me just imagine for a moment what it might feel like to REALLY trust and KNOW that it is true. I realize that there must be some people out there in the world who really do experience this level of trust.... what must it FEEL like to be them?"


Then simply imagine (for a moment) being someone who knows and lives and experiences (beyond the shadow of a doubt) the goodness and abundance that exists in the universe. Close your eyes. IMAGINE if it really was true. FEEL it in your body. PLAY with the idea of seeing things in a new and unfamiliar way. 


Can you feel yourself relax? Can you feel the muscles in your neck and shoulders release? Does your body automatically want to let out a deep sigh of relief? This is simply an exercise in imagination... a "trying on" of a new way of being and thinking... a respite into peace and trust... A way to practice positive thinking without the guilt!! Give it a try with anything you would like to see differently. :)

Embracing Something NEW

Newness Quest

by SuZen

Leaving the old... that which no longer serves.

Embracing Newness... what will I discover in my quest?

Open heart, trust, freedom, innocence, love

 Clarity, transparency, vulnerability, communication

*~~{{{PEACE}}}~~*

Ahhhhhh... deep sigh...

Emerging from the depths of confusion and moving into the crystalline awareness of a NEW paradigm

...where no path yet exists.

Forging the way... with bravery, determination and 

wild abandon.

The Quest for TRUTH is not for the timid!

With Newness comes sights never before seen, 

and experiences never before felt.

I TRUST in my fortitude - the serene peaceful knowing of sure success...

Bring It On!
