Happy Monday to You!

My awesome weekend began Thursday afternoon after finishing a series of coaching calls. I enjoyed a massage and an evening of relaxation.

Friday, Angie Lustrick came down to visit Vidya, Penny and I at the house.

Penny was busy as usual doing all her catch-up work for the week so we enjoyed creating art and laying in the sun relaxing outside in the front yard with all the wildlife.

We wanted to create a piece of art together so I thought of a theme we could use to guide our intention.

We took each of our birth dates and Angie did a numerology breakdown to get our common number, which turned out to be eight.

We then read Arnold Patent’s Universal Principle number 8 aloud and allowed that message to sink into ourselves.

Universal Principle 8: AWARENESS OF PURPOSE

Awareness of my purpose for being on the planet at this time now manifests to my conscious mind.

Positive thinking is fine, but it must be focused. We come to this focus by defining our purpose. Purpose is our vision of the ideal. Purpose is our conscious-mind discovering truths about our beingness, which our Higher-Self has known all along. When we align all of our thoughts with that purpose, life looks different.
We notice that everything has meaning and supports us.

We then took a big sheet of watercolor paper, got out the watercolor pens and let it flow.

Holding the vision of our highest purpose, we began working like bees in a hive. Without any obstruction to each other, we began quietly expressing ourselves artistically.


Over the course of a couple hours, the drawing you see above emerged.

Though I could give you a symbolic reading on the art, I feel I’d rather not prime your mind with ideas and let it mean what it means to you.

If you simply look at the art with a soft, unfocused gaze after dumping the thoughts of the day and feel what rises in you, your unique offering will emerge. We all hope you enjoy our expression.

We also hope you will take the time to read Universal Principle 8 and create something special for yourself.

After our day together, I had this image arise in me as an expression of the day we shared together.

This is Vidya’s expression of our day together. She always amazes me with her ability to create such delicate beauty.

Hopefully, looking at the art we are sharing takes you into the experience so you can feel our joy and friendship.

There’s something deeply fulfilling about being with friends that are comfortable with you as you are, and offering that experience to them too.

Angie wrote this poem to go with Vidya’s mandala after seeing it:

The sun is a circle
The earth is a circle
The moon is a circle
The drum is a circle
We are a circle

After we finished our art, we went for a nice hike in the hills behind my house. It was great to get out into nature and pump our bodies with some good hill climbing and walking. We ended our day with lovely shared dinner.

SATURDAY

Our meditation on purpose worked so good for me I actually went to my office and worked on fulfilling my purpose on a day off! While at the office, I enjoyed a lovely, quiet deadlifting session.

I did six sets off the box for 6 reps with 315 and coupled that with reptilian crawling. I left the gym feeling young and vital again!

I enjoyed a relaxing evening watching a movie and enjoying organic popcorn with Penny and Vidya.

Saturday night, before Brent and Rory arrived, I had this vision of our day together. It really encapsulated the experience we shared.

Enjoy feeling the image with a relaxed gaze and you can be there with us if you like!

SUNDAY

Sunday morning, Rory Mullin arrived to stay a few weeks with us. Brent Meier, a friend and one of our best trained CHEK Practitioners who lives and practices in Los Angeles came down to spend the day with us too.

Vidya and I had so much fun doing the art project with Angie, we thought we’d offer Rory and Brent a similiar experience.

Instead of reading a Universal Principle, we did some toning together. We chanted “OM” for some time until we were all harmonized, then we began drawing.

This is our combined creation.

Again, we were in harmony as we worked for a few hours on this mandala together. We all really enjoyed the process.

It was a beautiful, sunny day and Brent was enjoying the view of the rock garden, the hills, and all the birds and animals in the garden with us.

Here we are celebrating the completion of our day before Brent had to head back to LA. If you would like to know more about Brent and his work, you may visit his website: https://globalhealthperformance.com/

 

Vidya drew this beautiful picture in the evening as we were all relaxing after dinner. I’m always amazed at how beautiful Vidya’s art is! I hope you enjoy it too!

It was an amazing day! We were all energized and ready for a productive week.

Tomorrow, I’ll share a piece of art that I created over several days.

I wish you all an abundant, productive day!

Love and chi,
Paul Chek
