For my mother, Phyllis Haner,
who saw the world through artists eyes and
who taught me how to see the patterns all around us.
Then it was as if I suddenly saw the secret beauty of their hearts, the depths of their hearts where neither sin nor desire can reach, the core of their reality; the person that each one is in the eyes of the Divine. If only they could all see themselves as they really are. If only we could see each other that way all of the time. There would be no more war, no more hatred, no more cruelty, no more greed I suppose the big problem would be that we would fall down and worship each other.
THOMAS MERTON
Call me silly, but I never cease to marvel that Louise Hay is my friend. As author of the international bestseller You Can Heal Your Life and founder of Hay House, shes beloved by millions of people around the world. And shes even more wonderful than you probably imagine. Whether were taking a walk through the wildflowers of Southern California, traveling to some far-flung location, or laughing over a meal together, being with her is just a pure joy and delight.
Over the past few years, wed sometimes talked about how we felt that we had a destiny together. But I never expected that a simple Christmas gift from her would actually reveal one aspect of that destiny: the surprise discovery that her affirmations are validated by Chinese medicine, which is what my own work is based on, and the manifestation of this book.
I remember it was one of those magical winter nights when the air is crisp and clear and the darkness seems to sparkle. Louise had cooked an amazing soup made from vegetables grown in her garden; it was so rich with love and nutrients, each taste was powerful medicine. We spread organic butter on bread and enjoyed a beautiful salad as we laughed and talked. As the evening came to an end and I headed out the door, Louise handed me her new calendar of affirmations for the upcoming year.
As soon as I got home, I sat down to look through the calendar, admiring the power of the deceptively simple affirmations. I could feel my energy changing as I read them, and I thought, Wow, imagine if everyone in the world would just read one of these every day!
I kept turning the pages, reading one affirmation after the other, just soaking in their healing energy. But as I read, it dawned on me that I noticed patterns in their messages. In fact, what was becoming clear was that each affirmation fit like a perfect puzzle piece into each aspect of what Chinese medicine teaches about the human spirit. I sat straight up in my chairwas this my imagination?
I ended up pulling the pages from the calendar and sorting them according to the patterns I knew so well. My mouth hung open as I ended up with neat stacks of the same size, each applying to one classic personality type, emotional challenge, and phase of time in the human life cycle. It was a complete and coherent match to how Chinese medicine treats and transforms peoples energy.
Chinese medicine is thousands of years old, and through century upon century of research, its creators and practitioners came to develop a very sophisticated understanding of how all life on Earth works. Its like a map of how energy moves in a complex but perfect symmetry of harmonious and balanced proportions. You can place this map over anything to see whether its in co-herence. Acupuncturists use this chart to diagnose your physical well-being, but it can also be applied to any situationto evaluate whether a business plan is complete or how a romance is proceeding, and most important, to see the patterns in your own personality and how the design of your life is unfolding.
