Exciting News....Spirituality, Health and Divine Alignment!

So many of you have been so supportive of my articles and columns over the years, it is with GREAT EXCITEMENT and GRATITUDE that I share this story and announcement with you!

About six years ago, a dear friend Rev. Heather Mueller gave me a subscription to Spirituality and Health Magazine as a house warming present when we first moved to the property that is now The Sacred Garden.

I was delighted with the gift as the magazine resonated with my heart in every way. It was visually beautiful; it emanated peace through its pictures, words and even its advertisements. I never threw away a single copy, rather I kept them in out hoping to share them with anyone visiting who might be sitting with a moment to read.

And every time it happened to be me with a moment, I would pick up a copy, flip through the pages and exclaim some variation of or all of the following thoughts: "This is such a beautiful magazine," "I love this magazine." "I want to write for this magazine." I wonder how I would go about writing for this magazine." This internal commentary has been going on for six years.

In February of 2011, I was pondering the next steps of my career as this is something I do with pretty great regularity. As I pondered what was next, I realized that two large things were on my "list." One was to redo my web site and update it and the other was to get my column (that I had been writing for a local newspaper on Maui) into a national publication. I then considered some of my industry friends' websites and wondered if that was the direction I should take. I pondered several magazines that I could approach for my article. For both I came to the conclusion that I wanted the energy of my work to be "branded" with the same energy that The Sacred Garden held. I wanted to have an alignment of my work, my message and my presentation to the world.

At that point, various magazines began to flash through my head. I could feel my ego pull at the idea of "O" Magazine as every author knows what happens when Oprah is behind you. But one after the other my heart said, "No, that isn't it." Then, I remembered my Magazine Mantra for the last six years as Spirituality and Health came into the view of my mind's eyes. I felt internally at home. I felt the "yes" resonate throughout me. Yes, that is the "brand" of energy that matches my own. I held that clarity, put it in queue to pursue some day when I had some time and went to work on my normal daily routine.

A day or two later, I was sitting in The Sacred Garden behind the counter when a man came in. He walked straight to my book, How to Love Your Marriage, and picked it up. I watched and then greeted him. He looked over as if I had surprised him and said, "Are you Eve?"
I said, "yes" and he said, "You are who I came here to see."

He then walked over and plopped 4 issues of a magazine on my counter. The first thing I thought was that he wanted me to advertise in it. Then, suddenly, it registered that I was looking at THE magazine of my mantra. I picked up one of the copies of Spirituality and Health, hugged it and said, "This is my favorite magazine!" To which he replied, "My name is Paul and I own this magazine. "

I proceeded to gush (not my most controlled, professional moment, I'm sure!) and excitedly tell him the story of my Magazine Mantra. I explained that I have wanted to write for this magazine for six years but had never done anything to make that happen. He looked at me sweetly and said, "Well, apparently you have. I'm looking for a relationship columnist. That is why I'm here."

Within a matter of months my first column was submitted and accepted. I received an email at one point along the way from one of the publishers saying that, "It is our goal to have you write for our magazine." I felt like blowing up those words. How could it be that the magazine for which it was my goal to write would also have a goal of me writing for them? Divine Intervention.

SO PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE support Spirituality and Health Magazine and go buy a copy of the July/August Issue, or better yet get a subscription and have it delivered to your home....

AS THE JULY/AUG. ISSUE HAS MY DEBUT COLUMN IN IT!

Also, I am now blogging on their website so check it out for weekly (if not more frequent!) Q and A blogs. Feel free to send me your questions: Eve@HeartPath.com

And yes, while not quite finished, I have made major headway on updating my website HeartPath.com, so if you haven't been there recently, check it out!

Thank you so much for your encouragement and support!

10-10-10 A Day of Love

They say on Oct. 10, 2010 more weddings were performed internationally than any other day in history. According to the NY Times, somewhere in the vicinity of 39,000 couples tied the knot in the US alone…and that is just one country! All around the world the same phenomenon happened.

I performed several of them myself. One couple I performed the marriage for both shared 110/10 as their birthday and now too their anniversary. Another couple got married after 16 years of being together. I joked with them about saying “I did” instead of “I do.”
I have to admit, at first, it sounded kind of cheesy to me and as I stood on the beach watching couple after couple flaunting their wedding attire, it seemed kind of comical.

As the officiant, I felt like yelling, “Next!” just for fun.

But as the sun set on kissing couples with cameras flashing all up and down the beach, I noticed that I was walking away from the day feeling absolutely joyful. I could feel a a tangible energetic high. I felt like we had all taken part in a historical event and rather than one about war or terrorism, the event was about love and hope and commitment and devotion.

If the theory is true that the energy expelled when a butterfly flaps its wings can impact the path of tornado faraway, one has to wonder when thousands and thousands of couples hold the intention of love on a single day, what does the energy of million kisses send across the planet?

Ah, the power of love.

Start planning, 11/11/11 is only a year away!
