For 1 1/2 years I had been inwardly listening to my guidance, calling to me of a far away land....Costa Rica. I knew nothing of this wonderland, just kept hearing that little voice letting me know that I needed to be there. In an attempt to quiet the voice I headed for the travel magazines to see pictures of this land that was calling me. Ah... I can see why, I envisioned myself sitting on the beach, jungle at my back and a grass hut as my abode. This will definitely work for me was my first impression, so I signed up for the project. I cut out pictures at the end of that year, decided to put them on my annual vision board and see what happened. It seemed to calm the voice down but not turn it off. I was ok with that for now.

It took me a short time to convince myself that I was still needed in this area, I didn't have the resources to just fly to Costa Rica and check out the situation, I had a cat, a debt, and... You may recognize some of the chatter that goes along with stretching the envelope and moving to a new paradigm. So...I decided that if the universe needed me there, it would be arranged and get handled.

Medicine itself is stuck in a time warp. It has advanced amazingly in diagnostic terms with the use of electromagnetic means. electron microscopes, magnetic scanners, clever testing devices, are now all the norm. Through these tools medicine has learnt to diagnose most diseases and has discovered the subterranean world of viruses and bacteria and by these means has advanced medical understanding tremendously in the last two hundred years. But the system of therapeutics has remained stuck in the crude pharmacology process, pills you put in the mouth. Sometimes these save lives, in acute diseases, but less often treat chronic diseases effectively. Often they suppress or manage symptoms in chronic diseases to the detriment of the person or simply conventional medicine has nothing effective to offer for example in war trauma. Quantum physics has yet to impinge of conventional therapeutics. It's a profession with its head in the sand as far as therapeutics goes (we are not here critiquing surgery, life saving actions, vaccinations or diagnosis here). Even the homeopaths are stuck in this old paradigm; they use pills when they could use electromagnetism directly. Yet quantum physics tells us that everything is electromagnetic. Magic Max-XL is a revolution in healing that is long overdue as the old paradigm is way out of date. We are already witnessing the emergence of many forms of electromagnetic healing, signally the demise of chemical drugs.

That summer on the beach, several people mentioned that they were heading to Costa Rica, I smiled and thought, “That's nice, I'd love to go there,” thought briefly of my vision sitting on the beach, jungle at my back and a grass hut as my abode. Mmmmm yummy. In January, two of my friends casually mentioned that they were going to Costa Rica, one and then the other two weeks later. My first thought was in victim consciousness, “how come they get to go, it's my vision, it's in the center of LAST YEARS vision board!” My second thought, “What have I done about it?” I teach a manifesting workshop, I am a Master Creator, what am I doing? Carol it's time to walk your talk.

Medicine is the best word, for in the Native tradition, medicine means that which has to be taken to heal, that which leads to magical powers. So I started by honoring the medicine/experience of the situation, as it was. Not good or bad, but grateful, pure and simple. I embraced my current creations, and owned the truth that they had brought me. Now it was time to choose a new possible outcome.

Where was the voice that urged me so strongly to leave for Costa Rica last year? Would it return, or had I banished my guidance, my inner knowing with my reasons why not and my limiting belief patterns?

To re-connect I began by going on a quest for new information, allowing spirit to open the door to aspects of myself that were interfering with manifesting my mission. I chose to open myself up to paradigm breaking inspirations about me, my life, and my purpose.

I pleaded with my guidance to return, what stepped forward were connections that took me way beyond my personal crisis. I was shown ways to step forward onto a higher path allowing me to take one of the biggest risks of my life.

From this place, it was simple. I needed only to follow the lessons that I facilitate in my Manifesting Workshop.

• I did a God Self connection and became clear and focused on the end result.
• Then I aligned my thoughts, emotions and feelings.
• Chose a powerful affirmation and locked it into my body.
• Set up a crystal grid on the new moon.
• Changed my Helpful Friends and Travel area in the house
• Did a couple other creation exercises...

The door swung open in front of me, and my part in this magnificent creation was only to walk through. Step by step gifts were laid in my path, affirming the greatness in risking and in the tools I teach. My cat found a new home on her own, a client gifted me by paying my loan, another client showed up with my airfare, limitless and endless miracles continue...daily!

When I look at my day timer, on February 4th, 2003 it says: research possibilities for Costa Rica. I followed my heart and opened myself to receive limitless and endless possibilities. Today is April 6th, 2003 and I am flying to Dallas to connect with Joseph Rolley and other remarkable healers. Together we are co-creating a glorious adventure that will serve humanity on many levels and guess what? I'll be in Costa Rica this summer! I believe that life expands or shrinks according to our courage...How courageous are you?
