ACIM lesson 81 Review: “I am the light of the world.” and “Forgiveness is my function as the light of the world.” Dr Tim talked about the issues with the chatroom and Blog Talk glitches. Caller Joe, confusion is a healing process. Question: When I find myself triggered, want to ask why are you saying that? Wanting respect. Been taught that forgiveness is silent and I get quiet and do not want to engage her anger. When she asked if I was angry I said yes then she got quiet and she left the room. michael offered definition of denial, when I think I am upset because Lisa dissed me. And can hear you acknowledging it is yours. Responsibility Communication might look like Lisa, when we were with your daughters and that the girls were listening and saw me do nothing when you dissed me, what came up for me is sadness. And I want to heal my sadness. And if I misinterpretted what was said then I want to heal my misperception too. It takes time to really grasp what it takes to truly engage this process, we have generations behind us doing it differently and that is engrained in us. |

ACIM lesson 84 Review: “Love created me like Itself.” and “Love holds no grievances.” Sophistry – tell lies and make them appear true. To undo the sophistry we must accept truth. The further from LOVE we are the more we fall into the lies. Pharisees. We must release all grievances. Dr Tim, the intro parallels with the first sessions he has had today. Example of how the tools have made it possible for Dr Tim to respond differently. Not as upset for as ong as previous to using these tools. Passive Observer space. Caller Kim T. from Wilmington, have done 105 wake-up sheets since meeting us 5 weeks ago. Now finds she is stuck in a place relevant to the Love holds no grievances. Relationship with Mother. When is it ok to just withdraw? Realizes that it is her method to not be triggered because it is easier. Her Mom is 86 and not in good health and really wants to create a better space between them before she leaves the planet. michael restated what he heard her ask, Every time I go see my mother, she is such a master at showing me what I need to heal (resides in my tissue) but I prefer to stay away and not be triggered. As a naturopath if you had a client that chose to stay away from what is causing their pain and not deal with it…what would you tell them? Your mother can’t open your tissue structure and put physical hurt inside. I cancel m need for my mother to function as love, to affirm me and accept me. Then when you show up a miracle happens – they change. michael shared that after his father died michael would drive her from Canada to Florida and back and got to spend time with her and because she was in this work they processed through all their stuff and so when he spent the week with her before she passed it was sweet and peaceful without drama and trauma. May this Mother’s Day be active Love whether she is in her body or not. Question for Dr Tim on faster EFT tapping – was trained in the EFT tapping then the ‘faster’ EFT – I release and let go and let it flow through me. Same as cancel the goal. With clients when they are crying so hard it works to spin off the energy so they can get back to their forgiveness work. Caller Laura from NV, just read the book again for third time. When you talk about truth in the book is that a Spiritual truth or actuality? michael said yes they are the same. When we drop our false perceptions then real truth of actuality will infill us. We often only get small tastes of that – beyond common experience and so there are no words to express it. Laura then said when her Mother passed, her Mom shook her head and then laid back down. Laura said she got in bed with her and put her arms around her. Mom passed 10 hrs later. michael said she was listening to that direct guidance and what a blessing to be that space. (Note: we may be coming to Pahrump this fall) Caller Susan B., consciously or unconsciously, push something aside to not go there and deal with it. Imagine Mom sitting in front of you and talk with her. If something moves then that is your work and if not then you’ve probably dealt with it. Explain Power Person. 1. More power over your life than you did 2. they were not functioning as love 3. you perceived it as survival |

Took caller first. Caller Michele, doing worksheet on rejection and has difficulty letting go. 1. Release “need to be right” and 2. “how have I violated this goal” michael offered, notice your mind is holding to the story that your daughter and parents are rejecting you, you came to that conclusion because they do not contact you. Notice you are doing the same thing and yet calling it something different. When you tell your story about them how do you feel? Michele said guilt, fear, hurt, pain and sadness. michael offered, better to release the need to be right in order to collapse the thoughts behind those feelings. It is blocking your connection. The Course says I can prove I am right and show they are wrong but it feels like hell so maybe I can drop the story and feel better. Second question, when have you not accepted yourrself? Michele said she often rejected herself and wanted to hurt herself. ACIM lesson 85 Review: “My grievances hide the light of the world in me.” and “My salvation comes from me.” Only your own grievances will block you from seeing you are the light of the world. You are saved from the hell within (all the broken ideas) and the change is up to you. You have to do your work in removing what is less than love in you. Remember who you are and remember who your daughter is – LOVE – and let go of the messages that there is something broken in either of you. Dr Tim, had Woodstock Support Group last ngiht. Someone who had not been there in awhile and the lesson we did tied in with what she did in the Budhist Temple that morning…synchronicity. Shared with the group the insight he got from the MindShifter and worksheet from the show the other day, summary is that his father ran away from his grief and launched into the intellect to navigate through life, so unless someone could give a logical explanation for their position then they did not have a valid thing to discuss and they were dangerous. When doing a worksheet on someone he knows who took a plea deal, he asked why would a person who maintains they are innocent take a plea deal? Got the intuitive hit, his father put himself in a prison by running from his intuition and grief. (michael explained the mindshifter process) Explanation of the Apps. |

The HeartLand Aramaic Forgiveness App (both Android and iPhone) have received their first update and should be LIVE this evening. Thanks to Joe B. for testing the iPhone while Jeanie tested the Android. ACIM lesson 87 Review: “I will there be light.” and “There is no will but God’s.” Dr Tim is preparing for his Mom’s Announce the schedule. Including the trip to Egypt in November and the Food, Fun, Forgiveness & Work Program at HeartLand Quote from the movie “The Shack” the Creator says it is their joy to cure sin not punish sin, sin is punishment in itself eating one from the inside out. And another quote that God does not orchestrate the insanity but can use everything for good. Where there is suffering you will find Grace (the ability to process everything based in hostility and fear). Pain has a way of clipping your wings and keeping you from flying. Forgetting is not about forgetting but it is about letting go of someone else’s throat. Caller Nancy D., comment about the trip to Egypt, she took this trip with John in 2011 and it was great, safe, vibration high and it was an experience. Ceremony at the foot of the Sphinx. John does ceremonies that represent the chakras. The pyramids and temples were abundant and the trip down the Nile was great. Most prevalent was the vibration of the country. It will be amazing. Then a question, need a mindshifter, working with Julie has tapped into guilt and shame for not being the perfect mom or support person for her son Kyle and that I did not do something right. Kyle has opportunity to go to college and move on in life and he is not following through. See my own blockages of rage and anger and guilt in him. michael offered if you look back at your power person, did they have goals for you that did not match your own goals? Yes, they wanted me to go to college…Kyle is following her pattern completely. “My Dad is so delighted and he supports me in walking my path in my way according to my choices.” There is also resentment that I moved back to MI from FL to support him to go to college and then it hasn’t worked that way. Kyle wants me there and then he doesn’t. michael offered was that the same with Dad and you? yes. Take each of the vision statements and use them as goals and cancel and see where it takes you. Caller Joe, using the app, the sense of whether info was being stored is now gone and it feels freer. Joy to use this addition to the toolbox. Report: did responsibility communication with Lisa, to say to her that my pain and irritation and pain is not her responsibility or fault was such a joyful way to express when something happens instead of saying when she did something that it pissed me off. We are reading the commitment every morning and I feel and experience a depth to our relationship. More companionship. Caller Camille, can feel she can better have conversation with Robert. Qute from “The Shack” Creator says “All I want from you is for you to trust me. Grow and you are FREE to be the presence of Love with those around you (as I do with you).” Not your job to change them. Be love. |

ACIM lesson 88 Review: “The light has come.” and “I am under no laws but God’s.” As turning on a light dispels darkness, Love dispels hostility and fear. God’s laws is how the eternal forces operate and are inforce in everything in our world. michael referred to an old movie “Boys’ Town” that we watched the other night, the priest said “there is no bad boy” and in the face of such negativity and fear and hate from one boy (played by Mickey Roonie) and he held Love conscious, active and present. During depression and yet Father Flanagan’s faith and determination changed many, many lives – still active today. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boys_Town_(organization) The thought ‘when I choose love it wakes up the love in everyone’ was actually inspired by this film years ago. Quotes from the movie “The Shack” if anything matters then everything matters. Nothing will be the same ever again. Both Android and iPhone App version 2 released April 8, 2018. ACIM lesson 89 Review: “I am entitled to miracles.” and “Let miracles replace all grievances.” What the world calls miracles will become the norm! If we recognize our trauma and pain is ours we can change it. If something is seemingly being withheld from us then there is a part of us that is denying it. Our grievances will take over the situation and block us from experiencing fullness. And we must replace all grievances with Love. ACIM lesson 90 Review: “Let me recognize the problem so it can be solved.” and “Let me recognize my problems have been solved.” If the Truth of who I am can see through this problem then the construct in my mind will dissolve. Caller Doug B., this lesson is on with what is going on for him now. New awareness surfacing of how he took on “not good enough – bad – other kids are better” and so on. And it is up because he is trying to come forward more and finding such resistance. Need to clear more to serve better. michael offered it is a sad state of affairs that some of the messages we take on about ourselves is from the church. Yesterday a Gideon was at church and he said what all he was doing (putting Bibles around the world) and yet said ‘there is nothing good in me’ when speaking about himself. Doug said he believed there wasn’t the intention to put down but yet everyone is laboring under the belief that we are less than. Dr Tim said when we can interrupt our thought process then we can create something different. Spiritual teachings tells us we have the choice ‘where I want to be is only a thought of where I am’ We can interrupt the thought, observe, breathe and make a different default habit. Doug reinforced, doing the forgiveness process in the moment. It is more an unconscious thought, Dr Tim said program yourself to listen to your regulatory speech. Caller Kim Turner, Laws of Living class with Susan is tremendous. Understands what ‘intensive’ means. So much coming to the surface, ask for the community to hold the space. Realizes her anger and rage is coming forward and it is not fun. She finds herself default mode going to judgemental. From last conversation realizes it is her default and she appreciates the advice to Doug to change the thought process. Asks about ‘judge not lest ye be judged’ and needing to understand is she observing or judging? michael offered judgmental thoughts come from within. How did it feel when your Power Person judged you and told you what was wrong with you? She said demoralizing and demeaning. Introduce to your mind gentleness, love and caring – make a new habit. What you give you receive the original. Look at the story, the Jews were lost in the desert for 40 years, the old generation had to die for them to enter the promised land. Means the old causes had to die to get out of the state of unconsciousness and enter into conscious creation. The culture did not provide this space for you. Kim realizes someone ‘holding the space’ for her is rare and so precious, emotional over this new experience. Release the grief for not having this in the past. In an instant you can rejoice that you have it now. You are what you have been looking for. |

Carbon-based memory – file folder effect – i.e. Don’t think about a purple allegator! Now purple and allegator are connected. ACIM lesson 92: “Miracles are seen in light, and light and strength are one.” Dr Tim in between sessions and listening to Alan Watts (referred to Krishnamurti) – the meanings of words are in the mind of those who receive the words. A good set of questions and learning to live in the question is better than the answer and getting stuck in ‘I’m right’ CBM wants to believe it ‘knows’ – the willingness to be taught and receive answers, a different input than what I hold to be true. Quote re: mind energy becomes flesh. Mathematician and astronomer Sir James James said today Jeans. Caller Susan B., pain in system. michael’s sharing yesterday of grieving about the Canadian kids getting killed. That seems any passive person would feel that so why did you do a worksheet on it? michael offered if he has removed his grief then he could bring the presence of love to the tragedy instead of adding grief to grief. Stand as the presence and offer compassion. She said her grandson is coming Friday and she wants to be there for him and not be anxious and fussing. michael offered it is reasonable to say no smoking the pot around us or here in the house. Refer to https://www.amenclinics.com/spect-gallery/addictions/ Joan in chatroom asked for further explaination … weaken the energies that don’t serve and strengthen the energies that serve the relationships and removes the traumas. Reading the commitment and breathing and stay in a meditative space. Dr Tim added, in this culture we are taught to sit around and talk about the horribleness and what can we do to change the situation or them (that is ‘gossip’) but we want to focus on our true nature and dismantle anything less than that. Caller Tracey, working on Food, Fun, Forgiveness & Work and the attendees. Also perception of social media and surveillance process. michael offered further information and said he is in the process of getting off of social media himself. |

ACIM lesson 93: “Light and joy and peace abide in me.” michael shares a light and joy experience he had. Dr Tim working with tools for himself and patients and clients and support groups. Incremental progress. Every day events that happen without the drama and trauma he would have had years ago. Some are so remarkable to others and becomes a teaching moment for me when someone mentions how I moved through an event without upset. Commonplace to flow through the day with peace and acceptance and allowance that he could not have imagined 15 years ago. What else is to come, I can only imagine. michael mentions the film “I can only imagine” true story about the leader of the singing group “Mercy Me” and overcoming family disfunction. App version 2 HeartLand Aramaic Forgiveness is LIVE in both Android and iPhone Caller Shelly, waiting to go into dentist office but almost cut his finger off a bit ago. Look forward to see michael in Cincinnati Sunday. Thank you Dr Tim for what he just shared. Caller Laura, in the book it says “What you are looking for is what is looking.” What does that mean? michael said if you are looking for a source for happiness then you must realize it is YOU! The Creative self is doing the looking but unconsciously it thinks it has to find it somewhere else. It is actually St Francis of Assisi quote. There is a delightful film about St Francis called “Brother Sun Sister Moon” Caller Julie, huge experience to come from being in my mind to being present with you. Guided to look at the idea of the two witnesses. What does the Aramaic say about that? And page 628 speaks of the two witnesses coming into high level choice and that the advisor is inside and will determine your day. michael said this is in line with the ACIM lesson today. DVD New Beginning, to make a choice you have to listen to either CBM or Being. These are the two witnesses. Julie said she can see when she slips from one mind to the other. She can see the world operating differently. There is no power in the world’s energy except what I give it. |

Jeanie is back and Dr Tim is filling in for michael. Jeanie gave an update on her trip with her Dad. Caller Kim from NC, question from Laws of Living class. In a relationship, we can hold one in the space of love and yet set boundaries. We are not to be a doormat. Dr. Tim said there is no separation, not mutually exclusive. We want to see everyone as brillint and light and maybe they have temporarily lost themself (temporarily forgot or not discovered yet who they are). We want to understand judgment and discernment and the difference. We can discern truth without judgement of ‘better or worse’ and say maybe a behavior is ‘right for them’ and ‘not right for me’. Dismantle upset within myself, negative judgement on them or myself and then CHOOSE a path that may be different. When we dismantle the judgement we can see when we did the same thing, have compassion for them and myself. In that situation I might still ‘run for cover’ or call the authorities. I can do it from the space of openness and compassion (not knowing what they need to learn) and even if sending them to jail results, my job while holding good boundaries is to monitor my internal experience. Then I have a better chance to discern what is happening in the actual world. Feel safe and sane and have joy and happiness. Everything I say and do communicates what I think is acceptable or not acceptable. Example a father ‘preaching’ always tell the truth and then one day a call comes in and he says ‘tell them I’m not home.’ Learning, 80% is going to come from the modeling not the lectures or grounding or spanking. The modeling educates everyone around me. Kim said she would like the relationship be restored before her mother leaves the planet and yet she knows she has a tendency to be sucked into the family patterns and she wants to be clear. Dr Tim spoke towards choosing the interpretation of the other person’s words. If anything other than compassion, amusement, or love is experienced then there is a link around the words or action that is connected to pain or fear. You have an infinite capacity to reconnect with her whether she accepts it or not. You can use it as a validation of your growth and progress or as an indicastion of the need for more work. Based on the interpretation you choose to put on it. Chatroom: Lightness being falsely accused Jeanie shared IRS experience. Breathing is better than believing. Dr Tim shared living by belief is not practical or productive as direct experience. Caller Susan B, question about The Way of Mastery. Coming into separation on the planet, our body goes when it is no longer useful and that we were created for joy to the Creator. Why do we end up as separate EGO and body beings? “You need do nothing!” at another level, I have to take responsibility for what I have put in the way of the flow…I do not create the LOVE but remove the roadblocks from it. Not about being perfect but understanding the spark of the Holy Spirit is in everyone of us. We just ask and receive. Make your home in the breath! Feel it fully and let it flow through you. This statement before each Be-Attitude more accurately carries the lost meaning of Jesus’ word -TOUVEYHOUN: God implanted in your mind neural structures which will guide you when they are active. If they are active, you who follow these instructions will come into conscious possession of and be able to use this latent guidance system, designed to make available thoughts and actions that will increase your happiness and well-being: |

Coptic Conference this weekend in Johnson City, TN then Food Fun Forgiveness & Work Program at HeartLand in June (with Julie Haverstick’s Pay It Forward Program). Several intensives scheduled in July (see schedule on website and download the flyer). Then in November is a tour to Egypt. ACIM lesson 104: “I seek but what belongs to me in truth.” The world hides the truth of who we truly are – LOVE! The essence of the newborn. ACIM lesson 105: “God’s peace and joy are mine.” If I experience my life as something other than CBM then the peace and joy are mine. There is not a “the end” or a final chapter – it is an epilogue. The work continues, we are not finished yet. Generations of work to do. Movie “Unbroken: The Redemption” an olympic athlete who went through horrible abuse in Japanese concentration camps. He comes home with PTSD and becomes alcoholic but after meeting Billie Graham has a conversion and actully goes back to Japan to not kill the head of the camp (who was now imprisoned) but to let him know he forgave him. michael said it would be great to do a third movie to explain true forgiveness he did, not letting them off the hook for what they did to him. What is inside will continue to run our lives. Jeanie explains the journaling of a wake-up sheet. Complementary ways to use the forgiveness process. An app, written wake-up sheet, journal. One is not better than another. Caller Lynn, need help on wake-up sheet, she’s been writing about her marriage. They are back and forth and it is not healthy. He actually introduced her to this work and he saw her sheets and he said she was doing it wrong. So she wants to do it accurately. Also on archives heard a lot of Power Person and wants to deal with the repetition due to ultra stress of PP behaviors. michael suggested download Commitment and read it to his picture (he is out of country right now) and read the one to Self in mirror. Restructure deeper parts of mind. CoDependence worksheet too. Being ‘aware’ is a big step in the ‘how to.’ She is willing to do all that, but what happens is she is going through the day cooking dinner for example and all at once the trigger happens, probably escalated through the day, and she can’t just stop and do the sheet. And she finds herself in the same upset. What is she missing? She can function at a level 10 stress. michael pointed out that a year or so ago she was at 200 and yes it might be 150 now but that is better than 200, she is making progress. She said yes it is less but that is because her awareness is higher but her response is still an escalated place of 10. michael said the mind will lie saying there is no progress might as well go back but when you can see you have made progress then acknowledging that will reinforce the progress. Dr Tim said what keeps us locked in from making progress is that the PP dynamic happened early in life, the PP was not functioning as love, and it was when I felt so vulnerable that I downloaded that this was survival problem and if I did not have a solution then I would not make it. Dr Tim gave an example of a client triggered by a simple event and was in a ‘slash & burn’ reaction. Think when was a time in your life that you were that threatened or scared and journal about that, break through the jam where we created the initial belief. Congrats on continuing using the tools. michael offered an early dynamic besides survival or being told you were wrong. Takes time to shave off the energy of that experience. |

Welcome from Johnson City, TN where we begin The Coptic Conference tomorrow through Sunday. michael announced the upcoming Food, Fun, Forgiveness & Work June 8 – 23 followed by intensives June 29 – August 4. Egypt tour in November 8 – 20. ACIM lesson 106: “Let me be still and listen to the truth.” We get lost in an identity that is false. If ‘crazy’ moves in you then it is about you and forgiveness is removing the crazy so no matter what happens in your world you would not experience hostility or fear. Engage this thought and tell your mind to be quiet and ask “what would life be like if I could not generate any form of hostility or fear?” Active love shows up in the world. Dr Tim, for the first time in awhile, shared the whole process of managing goals to manage stress (Mind Goal Management Sheet and Getting the Stress You Need). The client was thrilled with the possibility of cancelling goals and getting relief. Developing will. Life is driven, controlled or inspired. Five faculties of Will: frame a goal, set a goal, select for immediate attention, maintain a goal and cancel a goal. Last thing before going to sleep is cancel all goals. The mind’s purpose is to work on goals to achieve to alleviate stress. Chatroom, location of Dr. Amens brain spect imaging https://www.amenclinics.com/healthy-vs-unhealthy/ Question around medical marijuana. Caller Ann from FL, re: Lynn from Mexico yesterday, Ann is also in a marriage with struggles when it is immediately in your face. While we don’t do it perfectly, I see I still react but not as intensely and often catch myself and pull back instead of going through with the reaction. Plenty of opportunities to practice the change. Feel better about myself and stopping the behavior and getting more pleasant. |

ACIM lesson 107: “Truth will correct all errors in my mind.” Completed the Coptic, We are “Powerful Spiritual Beings, Change Your Thinking” and michael’s topic was “The Impossible Dream” made the point that we need to change our mind (not just our thinking). Caller Michele from Canada, tired of going through the process. Going into the same spot she was before the worksheets. Does not think she has the energy to continue doing the 77×70. michael said he totally understands wanting to quit, he too has been there. But while doing the work takes effort it is an easier way to live, going back does not take effort but life is hard. michael explained the vitality meter and how we can’t see the next depth of issues until we reach the vitality level that is above that. And the potentially resulting healing crisis. Dr Tim good show on Friday with good questions. The fuel for moving forward. “Willingness” is the theme. We have our infinite capacity to choose – free will. No one can do it for us. Am I willing to keep going even when I dont feel like it. Caller Susan in PA, ask for an explaination again of the Power Person. michael went over who the Power Person is and then the behaviors we do when we are controlled by the PP dynamics against our will and choice based on level of stress. |
