Join Ani Kaspar and I on Help, Hope & Healing, WWLZ820am, Saturday, April 23rd, 12-1pm EST. Call in during live broadcast; (607)732-4820. We will be discussing Ani’s courageous journey with cancer and beyond, living healthy in everyday life. Ani’s book, Pelicans, Coconuts & Butterflies: Conquering Cancer with a Life of Soul is an honest, and sometimes heart wrenching, account of the struggles experienced living with cancer in our society. Ani is testament that change can happen with perseverance, faith, and belief in your inner guides.
This show will be archived April 25th under the title, “AM-WWLZ820 Talk Radio”, so you may listen at your leisure.

Ani’s humanitarian call to action “Compassionate Cure for Cancer®” asks cancer patients worldwide to request the modern medical community investigate and deliver natural, less invasive methods of treating and curing cancer. She is a four-year thriver of intra-ductal carcinoma—the most prevalent breast cancer in the world. Today, Ani consults, conducts educational seminars, workshops and retreats, and is a life coach and international speaker. After abandoning Wall Street, in 2005, she founded BodyByBliss™, an international wellness consultancy. She is the creator of a unique, self-exploration method called Intuitive Sovereignty or IS™. Ani is fifty one years old and lives blissfully in Rincon, Puerto Rico with pelicans, coconuts and butterflies. 
Breast cancer touches the hearts and souls of everyone connected to the dis-ease. Annually billions are spent worldwide on medical research and treatments that ignore a basic tenet of the primary Hippocratic Oath: “First, Do No Harm.” Each year younger and younger women are diagnosed with breast cancer. Each year younger and younger people are diagnosed with some form of cancer, the plague of our lifetime.
Among the fast paced movement of the world, I’m noticing more and more exhaustion rolling around me. People are running through life, and spinning so fast, they aren’t able to breathe, center, and connect to the nourishment of Source. When we listen to the signals our bodies give us, there is a high probability we are preventing illness, injury, inefficiency, poor decision-making, and poor performance. When your body speaks, listen!
How does your body speak to you? You walk around tired all day. Your extremities actually tingle with exhaustion and your muscles ache. Your memory is impaired. You’re irritable and have less patience with others. You feel depressed, angry, sullen. When we love ourselves enough to administer self-care, we are feeding the temple that carries us. Pay attention!
Sleep when your body cries for rest. Meditate when it screams for calm. Rest when it can’t carry you anymore. Replenish the emptiness within and you will accomplish what is needed in your life with ease. When you are exhausted every movement is an effort, rested and life flows effortlessly.
Treat yourself with the love, care and nurturing you deserve. You are porcelain walking this earth, protect your beauty within and you will never be without.

Journey of the Awakened Heart
A brand new book by Jeff Fasano
As we have walked our pathways on the journey of self-mastery we have read many books that have given us valuable information to think about, and we’ve been introduced to many spiritual tools to improve our lives. We have stored much of this information in our minds. Now, many of us are wondering, “What’s next? What do we do with all of the information?” Our next step is to bring what we have stored in our minds into our hearts, so that we may actually live from it.
Journey of the Awakened Heart is a book containing the teachings of Michael that guides us step by step to move within our heart space to discover who we are, our talents and gifts and our purpose in this lifetime. Contained within the pages of this book are messages and lessons that will assist you in discovering a new, highly individual, and self-mastered way of life that is more enjoyable.
This book, if it is in harmony with your essence, can facilitate the movement forward toward living the life you say you want, and loving yourself more than you ever have before. As Michael has stated so eloquently on different occasions, those of us for whom this message is intended have come to the intersection of the old way of life and the new, Journey of the Awakened Heart provides the tools we need so we can release the old habits, patterns, and rituals that hold us anchored in the old way of living.
In detail, it shows us a path to follow that will enable us to begin to honor and value ourselves, and recognize our unique gifts and talents. If we follow this path, as Michael has so plainly illuminated it for us, at the end we may step confidently into the unknown and live our purpose in this lifetime.

“These feelings won’t go away, they’ve been knocking me sideways, I keep thinking in a moment that time will take them away…these feelings won’t go away” ~Citizen Cope
We’ve all been there, knocked sideways with an emotional bang. You’re moving along in life, all seems fine, and then out of nowhere comes this pain so deep it knocks you off your feet. If you’ve loved and lost, you know this feeling buried deep down in your gut. You know the sadness and hurt, the anger and frustration. All emotions must be dealt with and released or the pain will continue to manifest in other areas of your life, causing you to stagnate and repeat the cycle over and over again. In time, self-love opens the door and you set your Spirit free again.
My daughters attended The Pulse dance convention this past weekend, and what a glorious experience it was! Among many exceptional choreographers, Tyce Diorio choreographed a piece to Citizen Cope’s Sideways. The feeling and expression he conveyed took the lyrics and music to a whole new level. Every movement held its own statement, allowing each dancer to reveal their personal release. When we express our emotions through movement our body and soul tell the story, as our hearts live the tale. It is an amazingly cathartic and beautiful way to feel every emotion.
May I suggest you click on the link below, close your eyes and FEEL what comes to you through the music. Move to it, feel it, breathe it, BE it. I’ve loved this song for some time now but to see it expressed through dance added a whole new dimension. My heart swelled. This is my favorite version of Sideways, Citizen Cope with Santana. Enjoy your flow….
” Move into the wound of your most secret fears, and find the seeds of wisdom that are planted there. Face what upsets you the most; it is a great teacher.” ~Lynn V. Andrews
Which one are you? Are you someone who accepts your position in life and chooses to take responsibility for your actions? Or are you someone who chooses to blame others for your lot in life? When we choose to blame others for messes we have created in our own lives, we remain stagnate in our mire of pain and often spiral downward as we take pity upon ourselves. In blaming others we erase our innate abilities and abdicate our power to master our own lives. Only you have created what exists in your life, and only you can change it. Until you accept responsibility for your past decisions and current situation, you will remain a prisoner of your negativity. You can lay down, claim defeat, and continue your cycle; or you can stand up, look yourself straight in the eye, and reclaim your life.
The Survivor chooses to create change. The road may be painful and full of patience, but the end result will be one of self-love, self-respect, humility, compassion toward others, and a knowing that you are fulfilling your purpose here on earth. In claiming your life, you become the master of your ship. There is no blame because you know you have the power to create your own life. You’re not depending on someone else to steer your ship, you take the wheel and accept full responsibility. The ups, the downs, and the in betweens. Life can be extremely difficult but when we know we can rely on ourselves to make it through the storm, and have FAITH that we will, all your perseverance will pay off. As we begin to TRUST ourselves we attract like-spirited people into our lives. Naturally, our inner circle of support grows and so do we.
Face your fears and seek the inner wisdom that will set you free.
Stay on your course, weather your storms, and the sun will shine upon your tattered and treasured ship.
