Change Your Thoughts - Change Your Life

Your approach to starting the new year is really an approach to all of life! How do you want to live? What do you expect out of life? What do you believe is possible for you? How do you approach getting what you want? What is important to you?  You are not broken and you do not need to be fixed. You are whole and complete exactly as you are. Deepen your connection to your inner voice. Everything you need comes from within. Start with LOVE. “Any resolution that involves you making decisions about long-range upcoming behavior is not only a waste of time, but it reinforces the self-defeating notion of living in the future rather than in the present moment.” -Dr. Wayne Dyer  www.nadiadelacruz.com

Tune in for a conversation about Dr. Wayne Dyer and Ram Dass, including some amazing synchronicities from my recent trip to Maui that led me to Ram Dass' home. (Recorded live in the Wayne Dyer Wisdom Community on Facebook.) Dr. Wayne Dyer played a pivotal role in Ram Dass securing the support that enabled him to spend the last 15 years of his life on Maui. Wayne had looked up to Ram Dass as a mentor and modeled his own speaking style from him. They later became friends, having dinners together and joining to speak at conferences on the island. In his letter, Be Here For Him, Now, Dr. Wayne Dyer had this to say about Ram Dass: "To me Ram Dass was and is the finest speaker I have ever heard, period! He was my role model on stage; always gentle and kind, always speaking without notes from his heart, sharing his inspiring stories and always with great humor. I tell you this from my own heart; I could listen to his lectures for hours and always felt saddened when they would end." "One of the truly great men of our time needs our help. I write these words to encourage your generosity and support. Back in the 1960’s a Harvard professor named Richard Alpert left behind the hectic world of academia and traveled to India—there he was to meet his spiritual teacher who gave him a new purpose to fulfill along with a new name. He of course is Ram Dass. His guru told him love everyone, feed people and see God everywhere. Ram Dass became a person who lived out this mandate—he did what so many of us could only dream. He connected to his spirit and devoted his life to serving others. In 1969 he wrote and published the signature book on spirituality and applied higher awareness, Be Here Now. In keeping with his commitment to love everyone and feed people, he donated all of the royalties and profits to foundations that did just that. With millions of dollars at stake, Ram Dass simply chose to live his life as a man of service to God. After years spent in India in pursuit of a higher more enlightened consciousness for himself and for our troubled world, he returned to the United States to lecture throughout the country. He spoke to packed venues wherever he went, and as always he donated the proceeds to such causes as would keep him in harmony with his mandate to serve. He co-founded the Seva Foundation and his writing and lecture fees were primary sources for this compassionate and inspired work." "If there has ever been a great spirit who lived in our lifetime, literally devoting his life to the highest principles of spirit, it has been Ram Dass. I love this man; he has been my inspiration and the inspiration for millions of us. It is now time to show him how we feel by doing what he has taught all of us to do—Just , BE HERE for him, NOW." www.nadiadelacruz.com

We are halfway through summer and I wanted to share a really human moment and check in with all of you. Below is some guidance that I received in a beautiful quiet connection with spirit. Take some time to slow down and just be present. Love to you all!  I'll be back with more episodes after the summer break. Drop me a line at www.nadiadelacruz.com. Life is not a checklist of experiences, it is a way of being in the world. Don't ask what do you want to do, but who do you want to be? How do you want to feel as you move through this space, interacting with all that is? Are you someone that is relaxed, present, flexible? Connected to your body and enjoying the sensations that come with everyday things? Paying attention to how you feel and noticing how others are feeling, too. Not chasing or pushing or pulling, but relaxing into a new way of being. One that recognizes YOU ARE NOT WHAT YOU DO. Do not fall for the temptation of judging yourself based on achievement, appearance, or what others think of you. You are above and beyond all of that. Break the bonds and realize you are free simply by being alive in this body right now.
