Your Connection With Innate, by Dr. Ogi Ressel

Saturday, January 10th 2009

Warm hellos to everyone,

I've sent this out just a few short years ago but I think it is
important you really get this, so I'm adding some new info
to it and sending it to you:

Let's have a good yak about something we all talk about,
discuss with each other at seminars and  conventions, and generally
accept as part of Chiropractic, but...... (there is always one of these),
from my perspective, have little understanding of - INNATE.

I was listening to Dr. Wayne Dyer on PBS recently - I believe that either
he once was a chiropractor in a past life, or he is very much connected
to Innate in a way that most of us would like to be - and should be.
That is probably why he is a frequent speaker at chiropractic seminars
and gatherings.
He framed an observation in his children's bedroom which was read by all
his kids each and every morning:

Good Morning,

This is God

I will be handling

ALL of your

Problems today.

I will not need

Your help, so have

A miraculous day.

Awesome!

The problem is that as we go through life, our experiences often
have us become disassociated from the Innate that we really all are a
very intimate part of. Our hunger for success, "things," survival, etc, tends
to overshadow the fact that we are all very much connected to a higher power
and resonate at a higher frequency -  something we all forget.
We become disconnected. ...and that is when we become unhappy, dissatisfied,
angry, selfish, self-centered, power-hungry, feel lost, unappreciated, a victim,
etc. - the list is huge.

One thing that we need to remember is that joy and happiness is our natural
state - if you are not experiencing these, you are not connected to your Innate
power. Simple!

Take a close look a babies, for a moment. They have done nothing to be so
joyful about. They don't drive the latest Bimmer or Porsche, own the largest
house, have a yacht, own part of a golf club, have a winter home in the
Caribbean, and they don't have a practice - they don't even see a single patient!
No new patients at all!  Zip. Nada. Zilch. Squat. Niet. Nic. They don't work.
They poop in their pants and someone cleans it up - nice life! They have no
goals other than to expand, grow and experience this wondrous world. They love
everyone. They are completely entertained by an empty plastic bottle or a set
of keys or goofy faces and they are in a perpetual state of love and affection.

What's worse is that they have no hair - they are bald, they have no teeth, they
are pudgy and they are flatulent. Yet they are always happy, joyful and easily
pleased. Why? They are connected to their Innate and experience no resistance
to being in a state of joy.

So....Like a baby that you once were, you don't need a reason to be happy - your
desire to be so is sufficient.  
Many of us "lose it" though. We become so preoccupied with "crap" and "stuff"
that we lose sight of our innate connection - that connection which is our essence,
and that is when things seem to go wrong.

Here is what I would like to suggest for you to do to get started on becoming
reconnected with the power of the universe:

• Decide that what you do as a chiropractor is a hobby. I like that!
  You life is with your family - your hobby is Chiropractic! Awesome!
  This perspective reduces tons of stress you may be experiencing!
• Spend a little time holding a baby in your hands - look into his/her eyes.
  See the love that lives there. Connect with it. Let go of all your other
  "pressures" and just be there.
  Experience.
  You don't need to say a word. The baby will totally understand. And so
  will you if you
  listen hard enough.
  Where can you get a baby? "Borrow" one, rent one (I'm teasing),
  but spend a littletime with one.

Warmest connections,
Dr. Ogi Ressel
