When the Student is Ready… Pt 3
This is the final part of this article and probably the most important thing to get from this post is that as students, we get to choose which direction we want to go in.
What this means is that life (as the teacher), doesn’t impose itself onto us, whenever we’re ready, we get what we need. The sooner we realise that we are the ones that create our reality, the sooner we get to live more joyfully.
The only reason that things may not be going as you would like them to go is because you haven’t yet opened up to new possibilities and life (as the teacher), keeps showing you difficulties so that you look for a new way.
So you see, even when things are not as we like, there are little gems to help us to change direction.
The question is, are you willing to give up that old conditioned part of you?
Much Love,

Movie Stars Syndrome – Pt 3
To sum it up, a “star” or TV personality is no different to any other human on the planet. All of us have bodily functions, eat, abide by the laws of gravity and will leave the body we inhabit one day.
To pretend that the person you are seeing on TV or the movie screen is any more special than you is to deny your true nature. You, are so amazing that you can choose to create the illusion of bondage in a massively abundant universe.
Ultimately it’s your journey to realise your Truth and what I think of you really doesn’t matter.
I trust that you will see how worthy and deserving you are of love, well-being, wealth and abundance and that you already have everything within you.
Much Love,
Angelo Campione
When Disease Isn’t Disease
A few people have asked me to discuss diseases and how to overcome them.
My view is that we don’t “overcome” anything, we only ever resist or allow, these are the only choices, whether we’re aware of it or not.
There’s an old school of thought that believes struggle and effort is required to achieve the things we want in life and this has carried through to wellness. As if somehow, once you find yourself with an illness, you need to struggle or force something in order to get well again!
I often hear on TV people saying things like, the “fight against” this or that (often for cancer) and because of the emotion behind it, a lot of people believe that fighting is the way. I see this as a misguided use of energy, the illness is not an enemy it’s simply an indicator for where you’re at in this moment. The circumstances you find yourself in, in this moment, are an accumulation of the responses (or in most cases, reactions) to situations you have set up for yourself.
So lets say you find yourself with an illness now and you think you have to fight it, the way it works is that life senses your vibration of wanting a fight, and so a fight is what you get (remember, life doesn’t differentiate, it totally allows you to have whatever is dominant in you). So if you feel the need to resist or see yourself as a battler in any way, the wellness that you really want, won’t truly happen, you simply get to a point of being so tired of resisting (fighting) that wellness is then allowed. It’s either that, or you die and again life allows whatever to be fine.
Have you noticed how well we heal when we rest? We offer no resistance to the illness and thereby allow the body’s intelligence to take care of things. If you doubt this, consider how rarely animals get sick, even when they do, it’ll be because of the energy they absorb from the owner!
I like the way Abraham-Hicks says it, “there is no disease, there is simply the disallowance of wellness”
Our essence is one of joy, light and abundance and we are so powerful that we can block off wellness, so that the impression of disease seems to be a separate entity that attacks us.
Think of it this way, a dark room is only dark because there is an absence of light, the light, which you have the power to switch on, is an energy source and therefore “something”. In order to have light you do not need the absence of darkness to be there, light has an energy source whereas darkness is simply what you’re left with when that energy source is not there.
Following on from this reasoning, disease is the absence of our own presence (which happens when we lose connection with the light within us by getting lost in the mind), which causes a misalignment within and the body produces a condition to indicate that an imbalance has occurred, it’s then up to us to find our way to alignment again.
The main issue is that we don’t realise our own power and so we use a negative situation to feel the power. If you look at any situation that’s considered negative and then feel anger, frustration, resentment, sadness, righteousness or helplessness, you’ll notice that it enables you to release a form of power that actually feels good. It’s a backward way we’ve learned to experience our power and in some cases we experience it as an illness.
The way I see disease is as dis-ease, i.e. a lack of ease. When we get caught up in a situation, whether it’s financial issues, relationship issues, the death of a loved one, or whatever, we respond/react internally in a certain way. The response will either be one of allowance and acceptance of what is (ease) or of resistance to what is (dis-ease). Most often it’s the latter and while we don’t see the instant manifestation of this dis-ease, over a period of time the accumulation of this lack of ease shows up physically in one form or another.
I know that what I’m saying here is not easy to accept if you’ve lived your whole life seeing illness as something that just happens. However if you accept that you have the power to create, then for no other reason than consistency, you accept that illness is your creation also.
Become aware of when you are resisting something and begin allowing, your body will thank you for it.
I wish you continued allowance of wellness,

Authenticity
The Invitation
It doesn’t interest me what you do for a living.
I want to know what you ache for
and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart’s longing.
It doesn’t interest me how old you are.
I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool
for love
for your dream
for the adventure of being alive.
It doesn’t interest me what planets are squaring your moon…
I want to know if you have touched the centre of your own sorrow
if you have been opened by life’s betrayals
or have become shrivelled and closed
from fear of further pain.
I want to know if you can sit with pain
mine or your own
without moving to hide it
or fade it
or fix it.
I want to know if you can be with joy
mine or your own
if you can dance with wildness
and let the ecstasy fill you to the tips of your fingers and toes
without cautioning us
to be careful
to be realistic
to remember the limitations of being human.
It doesn’t interest me if the story you are telling me
is true.
I want to know if you can
disappoint another
to be true to yourself.
If you can bear the accusation of betrayal
and not betray your own soul.
If you can be faithless
and therefore trustworthy.
I want to know if you can see Beauty
even when it is not pretty
every day.
And if you can source your own life
from its presence.
I want to know if you can live with failure
yours and mine
and still stand at the edge of the lake
and shout to the silver of the full moon,
“Yes.”
It doesn’t interest me
to know where you live or how much money you have.
I want to know if you can get up
after the night of grief and despair
weary and bruised to the bone
and do what needs to be done
to feed the children.
It doesn’t interest me who you know
or how you came to be here.
I want to know if you will stand
in the centre of the fire
with me
and not shrink back.
It doesn’t interest me where or what or with whom
you have studied.
I want to know what sustains you
from the inside
when all else falls away.
I want to know if you can be alone
with yourself
and if you truly like the company you keep
in the empty moments.

Keys to Deliberate Creation
I’ve done quite a few programs in the past, but there’s one I did recently that I absolutely have to say that if you only ever do one program in your life, this is it!
Ken MacLean’s Keys to Deliberate Creation goes through a process that will challenge you to the core (after all that’s where true change happens). It’s entirely up to you how quickly (or slowly) you want to go through it, but as long as you go through it and finish it, you’ll get value from it.
If you are serious about allowing the greatness that is within you to shine in the world, I whole heartedly recommend Ken MacLean’s Keys to Deliberate Creation.
Be warned however, Ken has produced a no B.S. program that will take work on your part to truly get the benefits you want and he’s offering it at a price that doesn’t capture its true value, in fact, I think he could sell it at 3 times the price and it’d still be exceptional value.
A final point, Ken would prefer that you don’t buy this program unless you are definitely serious about finally becoming the deliberate creator you are, he knows that this program is not for everyone at this point and asks you to be honest with yourself and not go into this expecting a magic bullet. It’s refreshing to come across someone with such great integrity.

Our Self
Our Self, that lives within, Joy is our name, All is well and all is Allowed.
Enjoy-in this moment, present here and now, and as this moment is allowed, the life force that is our source flows all about.
If we find ourselves in circumstances that feel painful, know that we are always worthy and deserving of Love and can find Joy.
As it is within so it is throughout.

The Guest House
This being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.
A joy, a depression, a meanness,
some momentary awareness comes
as an unexpected visitor.
Welcome and entertain them all!
Even if they’re a crowd of sorrows,
who violently sweep your house
empty of its furniture,
still, treat each guest honorably.
He may be clearing you out
for some new delight.
The dark thought, the shame, the malice,
meet them at the door laughing,
and invite them in.
Be grateful for whoever comes,
because each has been sent
as a guide from beyond.
~ Rumi ~
