HOW TO TRUST
IN YOUR LIFE

ABOUT ME
In my early 20s, I ran a PR firm
representing nightclubs in New
York, got caught up in the party
scene and became addicted to
drugs and alcohol. When I hit
rock bottom at 25 and decided to
get clean, I turned to meditation,
a practice I had been introduced
to growing up but hadn't kept up.
I also studied the metaphysical
text A Course in Miracles by Helen
Schucman, which changed my
life. I decided to share my story
and have now written six books,
appeared on Oprah's Super Soul
Sessions and toured the world
to spread my message that the
Universe has your back.

TIPS TO
FEEL GOOD

START NOW
Choose a better
feeling, thought
or action and
build on it.

GIVE THANKS
Write a journal about
the good things, or
send someone a
thank-you note.

STEP ASIDE AND SURRENDER
The Universe won't step in until you
step aside and stop trying to control
the outcome of a situation. The
secret is to forget what you think
you need and instead ask for what is
of the highest good. I start each day
with a simple prayer: 'Where would
you have me go? What would you
have me do? What would you have
me say, and to whom?'

SHIFT FOCUS
When you feel
helpless, help
someone else.

BE CREATIVE
Sometimes putting
on a great song
and dancing is the
quickest way to raise
your energy.

FOCUS ON WHAT'S
THRIVING FOR YOU
Instead of obsessing about your
problems or a lack of something
in your life, redirect your focus on
what you already have going for
you. The more we celebrate our
lives, the more there is to celebrate.

WORDS: LISA KJELLSSON

REFRAME YOUR SETBACKS
When we recognise that obstacles
are detours in the right direction,
we find our path more easily. I spent
a long time trying to get pregnant,
becoming increasingly frustrated
that it wasn't happening. Then I
realised I had more healing work to
do to become the mother I wanted
to be. The Universe has a plan far
greater than your own - trust that
any detours are part of it.

ASK FOR A SIGN THAT
YOU'RE ON TRACK
Whether it is a line from the lyric
of a song you hear on the radio or a
slogan on a billboard that speaks to
you, the Universe is always guiding
us in the right direction - ask for a
sign and pay attention.

FLEX YOUR FAITH MUSCLE
When you think you've
surrendered, surrender more.
Let go of any remaining beliefs
or behaviours that aren't serving
you. Faith is a muscle that grows
stronger the more we exercise it. B

DAYDREAM
Visualise something
that fills you with joy
or excitement.

The outcome

When our attitude and actions become more loving
- being forgiving, healing our wounds and embracing
the moment - miracles occur. And this will also have
an impact on the collective field of energy. Each
person's spiritual shift helps to change the world.
