Being in the flow, being connected with your heart, your mind and your body, so that all will be in alignment, and moving forward in this world in a purposeful way.

Charissa Sims have been doing a podcast for two years now called, “You Inspired”. And it’s been amazing. She feels so blessed to have met the incredible people. She has been going to seminars for 25 years. And it was her intention when she started the podcast, that she would resonate so deeply that she would attract these people that she looked up to.

Charissa sang in the choir of the Gates of Praise Church, Inc and that was one of her dreams, to sing on stage. And, she had a dream to sing with Black Eyed Peas. And that came to fruition. She sang with Will I Am and though she didn’t have a dream for this, but she sang with Stevie Wonder. She had an incredible experience singing in the choir. They also went on tour and went to Australia and sang for presidents. It was just an incredible time for Charissa being part of that church and was part of the global ministry who have projects in Africa and all over the world. She has that in her heart that she always wanted to give back.

Charissa met Mark Victor Hansen, who is the co-creator of the Chicken Soup of the Soul book series. She bet he came into the church for their projects. Mark is good friends with Reverend Michael Bernard Beckwith. And so, he gave out books called, The One Minute Millionaire. Charissa thought he was so amazing. And would love to be friends with him someday. Charissa connected with Mark through another person. And they had the interview, it went so well that Mark and Charissa stayed connected for personal reasons. Charissa now feels honored that Mark is in her circle of people that she can call her friend. And it’s just such an amazing feeling to have someone so successful, so warm, so focus on giving back because she feels like that in her heart as well.

So then, because the interview went so well, Mark forwarded Charissa’s name to 20 or 30 of his closest friends and they became Charissa’s circle too. Now, there’s an incredible synchronicity of people, journey, and manifestation and that is what Charissa wanted to share. That can be your life too, she said. If that’s what you desire, if that’s what you visualize, if that’s what you want to create. So, this is really your journey, your own Zen success journey.

Charissa is not a practicing Buddhist, but she really does love the philosophy of it. She would say she’s a spiritual person, and she believe in God and the universe. And she believes in whatever it is that you believe is true for you and can help support you on this journey. So, this podcast is not religious, it’s meant to be inspiring. So, it’s meant to be neutral.

You can do that through nature, being mindful. Being present. Eckhart Tolle, on his book “ The Power of Now” says really feeling all of that, you can focus on the now by focusing on one body part at a time, eventually, you’ll be able to feel your entire body in the present moment. But you can start off with something small like your hand or your finger and notice where you are and notice your surroundings. Clearing the mind, you can do that also, through exercise or through meditation.

Visualize It 

So then, after you get clarity, then visualize it and be there with it. Don’t see it outside of you. You really be in it. Don’t see yourself in the picture. Your eyes are looking out because you’re experiencing it. You’re smelling it. Who are you with? How’s the air? What’s the temperature? Like? What do you see who’s with you? Think about all those details and create them in your mind.

And as much as you can be consistent about that process. Now you can also visualize you can go back in a circle and get clear the mind again and you can visualize it during your meditation too. That would be helpful. And then it’s time to take divinely inspired action to be in the flow of life to let synchronicity happen. Be Ready. We are powerful creators, and we all have the power to create our own Zen success. Remember that.

Stop fighting the universe and allow it to show up for you. And then receive, receive, receive, and you’ll be ready. And you’ll sit there and say yes, then you’ll feel it that you are in your Zen success.
