Is your Soul on Fire?
Author: Lynn Scheurell  | Posted: 30-08-2007 | Comments: 0 | Views: 6 | Rating: (50)  (?) 
People around me are commenting on my high energy level… I feel like I’m on fire lately! It seems that other people want that kind of focus and excitement in their lives too. So my intention is to break “it” down to help them have it.
One of the pieces for me is that I feel like my soul is on fire. In a good way… but what does that actually mean? Where there is fire, there is obviously burning, a kind of merging that happens, a consuming of fuel or source energy, a transformational process that changes from one state to another. There is a driving passion, with a mesmerizing quality as flames dance, and a hungry seeking of the next fuel source.
And this is how I find myself living every day… as I seek personal truth, I am pulled forward to my next source (discovery, experience, feeling, etc.) in what becomes a transformational process that I want, and am compelled, to share with the world. Through the last eight years or so, there have been times when I felt like I was on my last glowing ember – only to get stoked again when I touched base with what my soul is here to express.
From my experience, when a person's soul is on fire, there is nothing that stops you. Taken in the largest possible sense, I suppose that can be good or not-so-good. If you jump out of bed because it's time to get burning again, you're on track. However, if you're not finding that kind of enthusiasm or not getting the results you want, it's time to check out what's happening with your source energy – the inner fuel that's feeding your fire.
3 Things You Can Do
1. Get mesmerized with yourself. Contemplate what's going on at a deeper level. Go past the obvious (the orange flame), past the hotter heat (the violet flame), into the white-hot center of you. Notice what feeds you, what makes you feel alive, what pulls you forward. If you aren't feeling the thrill of being you daily, there's something missing. Go back to the embers to fan them into flames. That is, go back to what has made you happy in the past, maybe distant past, and incorporate more of that into your current reality.
2. Use discernment in choosing your external sources of energy. That is, the best wood burns evenly, without spitting, and gives off good heat. If wood is too new or green or sappy, it won't burn well. If your environment (people, home, office, thoughts, ideas, business, etc.) isn't nourishing you to burn at your optimal rate, it's up to you to figure out which ones are spittin' and poppin' (to continue the analogy) and repair or replace them.
3. Explore the expansion. Just like fire grows with good conditions (oxygen, good wood, open space), so can you. When we have a fear or uncertainty about being in wide open space, with no boundaries to hold us back in where we can go and what we can achieve, we are genetically wired to experience insecurity. That used to save our primitive necks… but now, if we learn to embrace that exact same sensation and explore it for the possibilities, we may find new sources of energy to fuel our souls.
When you discover what feeds the fire of your soul, you discover your connection to your higher purpose. And when you know that, you can align everything you do with your soul's fire… it is my sincere wish for you that you find your personal truth and live it every day.

I had three house fires, my sister mobile, that was on my property home burnt to the ground. my friend's house that I was staying at caught fire, a loaner car burned up, and most recently an RV on my property, used for storage, burned to the ground. There have been other smaller incidents None of these fires, to the best of my knowledge, were maliciously started. I would like to find out why fire is such a part of my life.

High Androstenedione but low Testosterone
By: rob | 27-08-2008
I took finasteride for 3.5 years, the first 2 years were fine, but after a stressful period I began to loose muscle, stopped the finasteride, and have continued to lose muscle since (5 years now). Saliva tests show very high Androstenedione but low Testosterone. Has finasteride damaged the enzyme that converts Androstenedione to Testosterone and this reversible?

The Secrets of Your Purpose

Hands-down, the biggest question I get over and over from my clients is: how do I know my purpose? How do I know I'm doing what I'm supposed to be doing? What am I supposed to do next? How do I KNOW that I'm living on purpose? (And then the question becomes: how can I make that into a business? But that's for another time…)
The Accelerated Path to Personal Development
By: Lynn Scheurell | 28/07/2008 | Self Help
When people ask me what I consider entrepreneurial business, one of the definitions I use most often is that it's the accelerated path to personal development (on steroids). It is impossible to have a business, much less a soul-driven business that is your purpose manifest in the world, and not grow as a person. Here are five of the milestones of personal development that you may recognize yourself in random order (and if you haven't had them yet, keep an eye out!).
Having a High "havingness Quotient"

Imagine that you've gotten everything you ever wanted... the life partner, the house, the car, the clothes, the physique, the friends, the money, the lifestyle…
Now what?
If you're like most humans, it's likely that you'll sabotage yourself in "having it all". We here in the Western world are actually socialized to be in continuous striving; that is, we don't know how to have and enjoy everything we've worked for and received because if we have it, our culture says we're not working hard enoug
Three Secrets you Need to Know About the Monkey Mind
By: Lynn Scheurell | 09/02/2008 | Self Improvement
The term “monkey mind” was originally coined by Zen Buddhist monks to describe the condition of your mind racing from one thought to the next, creating mental churn that saps you of vital life force energy. We here in the Western world experience it as that which keeps us in busywork mentality, feeling overwhelmed, susceptible to taking on too much and having really long, sleepless nights.
