    • The Benefit of Focused Love

      Posted at 1:51 PM by Krista Gorman, PA-C, on September 25, 2022

      There are SO MANY potential distractions all around us, things that can pull us away from our desired focus. When in the world, doing what we do each day, the ability to hold oneself in a state of being which feels loving can be a real challenge at times.

      When we are able to shift ourselves, even just a little bit, away from a distracting energy whether it be a person, a circumstance, or a feeling that’s caused a disturbance in our good-feeling force, we open up the opportunity to shift even more, and more and more. We show ourselves it is possible. We move closer to who we are in our essence.

      Focusing on Love, on feeling good, heals us. Focusing on Love and feeling good heals our neighbor, our community, our world. The ripple effects happen without our having to do anything else. They happen in our physical bodies first, and foremost. Cells respond to the good-feeling chemicals released which, as Candice Pert, PhD observed in her research, vibrate into place on their respective receptors in the organs of the body, transferring energy and information. Which ones are triggered for release is determined by how we feel.

      Focusing on the high-vibrational feeling of Love gives us the opportunity to create a healthy body, community and ultimately, world. Imagine it.😄❤️✨

    • Baby Steps

      Posted at 10:58 PM by Krista Gorman, PA-C, on February 15, 2022

      In our recent move to the Hawaiian island of Maui, I’ve had some interesting things about myself come to light. Like, I hadn’t realized how much familiar surroundings and routine meant to me. Not that I had a super specific routine in my life before, but what surrounded me was familiar. Things around me had their place and I knew where to find them. My “stuff” was all around me. There was a comfort in just feeling the energy of my home, my neighborhood, my town. All of that has changed.

      Moving 4500 miles away from where I lived for 22 years was more of a challenge than I anticipated. Although I’d chosen it, I’d planned it, I’d hyped it up to my husband, I found myself in moments of fear. I wasn’t completely sure if picking up my life and moving to the middle of the Pacific Ocean was such a great idea. I longed for home and the comforts of it. I wanted to see the same landscape out my window I’d seen every day for so long. I wanted to go to the grocery store and have the people working there nod hello because they knew my face.

      Then, I watched the sunset on our wedding anniversary and a sea turtle swam by. Not only did it swim by, but it lifted its head out of the water and looked straight at us! Another swam directly underneath me two days later. We watched giant waves crash on ancient lava rocks and felt the energy of nature. We stood on a forest path amongst trees that had been there since indigenous Hawaiians lived on the land and it was still theirs.

      I’ve been here 13 days and I’m already transforming. I’m moving toward who I came here to be. I’m becoming more, and I couldn’t be more grateful or more sure that yes, this was the right decision.

      Much Aloha! xox

    • Choosing To Live (using Twelve Principles For Daily Living)

      Posted at 8:55 AM by Krista Gorman, PA-C, on April 12, 2021

      One thing that I find myself doing on a daily basis, sometimes hourly basis…sometimes minute by minute, is choosing to Live. That’s with a capital “L”. It’s so easy to move through my day, weeks, month going through the motions of life rather than really living them.

      What do I mean by that?

      I mean: When my husband stops me in the hallway for a hug and and a kiss, I stop myself, both physically and mentally, bringing myself into that moment and being fully Present. I get to experience him/us in a way I could not had I continued on with the thoughts and the forward momentum of my day. I get to appreciate that moment we shared, which is then stored as a memory in every cell of my body…a memory of Love.

      I mean: When I’m doing various tasks throughout the day, paying attention to where my thoughts are, where my attention lies. Focusing on enjoyment of the process of life in that moment. If it’s something I usually find tedious or don’t like doing, easing into an energetic space of gratitude for simply being physically able to do it. Simple, isn’t it?

      I mean: When faced with challenges which would potentially cause emotional pain, stepping into a Loving space where I am willing to walk through the fear, the unknown, with the overarching energy that all is always well and I have the ability to shift myself into a better feeling place any time I desire to, and that if I have created a situation which feels less than good, I can create something that feels better too.

      We are NEVER victims of our circumstances. We have created them, along with the Universe, for a purpose sometimes greater than what we may presently comprehend or feel. Setting judgement of those circumstances aside and simply Loving eases everything. Awareness of our participation in the creation and of our power to create something better. Willingness to move forward in Love. Patience for the better-feeling situation we are intending to manifest. Faith that it will. Compassion for ourselves and others. Understanding our Miraculous, Spiritual nature and how, as Creative beings, we get to design the life we desire then Lovingly going about designing it from that moment forward. This is Life!

      Love to you all! xox

    • COVID-19–A Lesson In Growth

      Posted at 5:21 AM by Krista Gorman, PA-C, on April 26, 2020

      We’ve all heard the saying “There are no guarantees in life.”  Dying while in labor with my daughter was the last thing I expected to happen that morning.  I had the expectation of a safe delivery, but that expectation was not met.  I had all these plans for my life afterward, but those plans changed, and in a big way.

      This virus has no consideration for the outline you have of your life.  It is here, and may not be going anywhere.  Consider that for a moment.  A virus that we know little about, one there is no vaccine or at this point, no medications to treat, may be a continuous threat for the foreseeable future.  Our lives have been fundamentally altered in one foul swoop, leaving many reeling, wondering how they are going to manage themselves now.

      Our personal and professional lives, in some cases, have been turned upside down.  From the cashier at any store in America to the physician (or physician assistant in my case ;), the financial impact of this pandemic is significant, for some irreversibly damaging to their lively hood.

      But, I ask you, is this a “bad” thing?

      We are here to expand in awareness of who we are.  We are here to connect with ourselves in a fundamental way so we may then better connect with one another.  It is through our connections that we grow and become Who We Are.  Sometimes things need to be shaken up in a big way for this to happen.  No matter the source of this virus, whether you believe the scientists or the conspiracy theorists, its here.  My question is, what are you going to do with the time you have on this earth, right now?   Are you going to continue on in the same way as before?  My guess is the world won’t let you.  None of us are going to be able to, and that’s a good thing.

      Focusing on what we have gained from this virus being present at this time in our lives, rather than what it has taken, completely turns our experience around.  We go from the perception of loss to one of gain.  We have gained time either alone, or with family.  We have gained time to consider where we are in our lives and where we’ve always wanted to be.  What is your hearts desire?  What do you want to do that you haven’t done yet because fear has kept you from it?

      Now.  Now is the time to make the changes that will allow for greater growth and spiritual expansion.  Fighting the changes, lamenting about how life will never be the same, keeps you stuck in the old when all your soul wants is to let the new rush in.

      Say “YES” to your life and your life will step up to meet you.  Every. Single. Time.

      Much Love to you !!  xox

    • The Next Right Thing

      Posted at 11:49 AM by Krista Gorman, PA-C, on April 6, 2020

      This is a phrase that anyone who’s into self-help/spirituality probably hears a lot.  When you don’t “know” what to do, “Just do the next right thing.”

      Sometimes it eludes us completely, other times, it is crystal clear.

      For me, during the Covid-19 health crisis, it is the latter.  I am a Physician Assistant who has worked in Emergency Medicine for many years.  Through a series of synchronous events, prior to the crisis becoming the crisis it is, I found myself laid off my job with pay for 3 months.  As I was looking for temporary positions while plans were laid for a permanent position, I was guided to serving in NYC.

      I am here to be of service in whatever way I can be.  Right now, it means taking care of people in a place and time where they need it so desperately.  I am not afraid.  I am not, at the same time, burying my head in the sand about the risks.  I deeply feel that I am protected with all of the PPE available to me (which they have plenty of now) and my energetic disposition of “all is well.”  My plan is to bring my expertise and Love to everyone I encounter.

      Walk courageously today, then maybe tomorrow too.

      Much Love to all of you!

    • Sprinkles

      Posted at 7:02 AM by Krista Gorman, PA-C, on November 20, 2019

      As I’ve gotten older, there’s something I’ve come to understand better.  That this life, this existence, is to be LIVED.

      Not trudged through, not skimmed over.  We are meant to dive into it with every bit of ourselves and swim in its beauty and ugliness.  We’re here to experience the divine in all of it.  Every bit is as it is with the purpose of helping to mold ourselves into who we chose to be when we came here.  We are not victims of our lives, we are the creators of it.  We get to choose whatever we want to be here in these bodies.  When life starts to pile up with the demands of the outside world, remind yourself of your divinity and the reason you came here.  Create the time to focus on that, then create that.

      Much Love to you! xoxo
