• Turn Fear Inside-Out

  Posted at 10:20 AM by Krista Gorman, PA-C, on February 25, 2015

  Fear can be really motivating and really stagnating.

  Why?

  Why does it have to exist at all?  Sure, there’s the life-perserving type of fight-or-flight kind of fear that ensures the propagation of the species and once we experience it we run like hell, but why does it exist beyond that stage?

  Think about what you’ve experienced in the past where fear motivated you to run…what purpose did it serve?  Self-preservation.  To preserve the “Self”.  But, what is the self?  Ego.  Let me explain…

  When we’re faced with a situation that challenges our present mind-set or belief system, a common thing to do is react to it by becoming defensive.  We want to defend our mind-set or beliefs because the Ego is all about standing its ground and maintaining its position.  What underlies the Ego?  What supports it?  Fear.

  The question we must all ask if we’re to grow into the loving beings we came here to be is this:  What am I afraid of?  Open it up and dissect it, remove all the parts and lay it all out on the table.   Turn it inside-out.

• On Patience….

  Inner calmness allows for the bringing forth of such life-vivifying experiences!  When we are able to let go of the butterflies in our stomach, to soften the furrow in our brow and allow our breath flow in and out easily and effortlessly, a whole new world opens within that reflects without.

  Love to you  xox

• We Are Supported

  Posted at 7:09 AM by Krista Gorman, PA-C, on January 8, 2015

  Just by being here, we are supported.  We can never, ever be alone.  There are energies all around us, all the time ready to lift us up when we call upon them.  Some refer to these energies as angels.  I love the word, but choose ‘benevolent spirits’ to describe them myself.  They are spirits I met during my near death experience 14 years ago and as a child before that.  They love us in a way nothing else can here on earth.  It is an ego-less love, as they need nothing in return.

  If you feel alone, unsupported by those around you think about asking for help from those you can’t see 😉 then pay attention to what your intuition tells you to do.  Wait and see what happens…

• Flippin’ Fear

  Posted at 4:18 PM by Krista Gorman, PA-C, on December 30, 2014

  When we take what it is we fear, flip it around and look at it in a beneficial way, we create a whole new life for ourselves.

  Happy New Year!  Happy Old Fear!!

• Joy vs. Suffering

  Posted at 9:55 AM by Krista Gorman, PA-C, on September 5, 2014

  Life is unpredictable.

  I used to be so uncomfortable with that saying.  I needed a schedule that didn’t change.  I had to function within certain parameters where, if they were breached with an unexpected “whatever”, I would be sent spinning.

  What I never realized was how afraid I was.  I carried a fear of living around with me all the time, yet was completely unaware of the extent to which it affected my life.  I figured it was something that was a part of life.  Most of us are afraid.  That’s just how it is.  That’s why we get life insurance.  That’s why we save for retirement.  That’s why we go to the doctor and take the pills we take.

  We’re afraid of living. We’re afraid of dying.

  But, why?  Why do we see this life as something to be feared? Why do we see death as something to be feared?

  Why do we approach life, the most natural thing in the world, as if it is something to be endured, suffered through and ultimately end through this horrible thing called death?

  I didn’t get it.

  Then, I died.  

  Then, I got it.

  We come here with the experience of who we are in our most fundamental state of being, which is pure, conscious love, and with that, all the joy that comes with it.

  When we come into the body, we have the experience of the suffering that occurs when we are separated from the source of who we really are. We’re in the body so we may once again endeavor to experience the joy of who we are. When we do so, we are able to understand the difference between suffering and joy, and when we live to experience only joy, we cease to suffer. We’ve returned.

  Love to you 🙂

• The Journey

  Posted at 8:38 AM by Krista Gorman, PA-C, on May 7, 2014

  Experience is gained along our journey, which gives us wisdom.  Conscious living through awareness, along with experience and wisdom, help to re-create our true selves here, in the body.  To what degree this happens is based on the degree of our ability to know and share love.

  Love to you all!!
