Here is a synopsis of the lessons I teach in each of my three books:

 Book 1: Angels and Horses

1. We can’t control how a person behaves towards us but we can control what we ‘think’ about it and then what we ‘do’ about it.

When someone either does or says something mean to us it gives us an opportunity to get to know the part of ourselves responsible for being greater – being forgiving, compassionate, or just nice’.

By not reacting the way the offender expects us to (answering aggression with either aggression, over reaction or submission) but by employing a neutral position, we disarm him or her.

Change the way you actually ‘feel’ about the attack. (ie. pity instead of defensive)

 2. By focusing on a past situation one repeatedly surfaces old feelings associated with that situation and even recreates events that evoke those same emotions.

Everyone can control the way they feel by focusing attention on one feeling or another. Keep reaching for the next best feeling. Imagine your emotions on a scale and keep reaching for the next best/highest.

Feelings are how you create the world around you – focusing attention.

3. Meditation/Intuition: Listening to one’s intuition – getting quiet.

Look up at the clouds but instead of imagining them to be objects look between the clouds instead. You won’t be tempted to make them into anything.

Imagine your mind has two doors – an entrance door and an exit door. As a thought comes into your mind, acknowledge it as being there but you don’t invite it to stay, simply let it leave through the exit door.

4. Expect the best from a situation. Instead of wasting your focus on expecting the worse and hoping for the best, just expect the best! Not only does it affect the outcome on a subatomic level, it also keeps you in a happier state. If something doesn’t turn out the way you would like you will be disappointed anyway, so why not feel better and more hopeful until it happens?

5. We are all part of an eternal thing – made up of the same thing. From a subatomic perspective we are all just energy vibrating at different at different frequencies – whether human, animal or inanimate object.

Energy may change form but it never disappears. You may not always be as you see yourself now, but the energy that is you will go on forever.

6. I introduce the idea of time not being linear and the possibility of things existing in different dimensions at the same time. I do this primarily to encourage philosophical thought.

 Book 2: Summer of Magic Horses

I continue to talk about time and alternative realities (multiple dimensions) and I also present the idea in depth about communicating with animals along with discussing the roles animals play within our lives.

I speak a great deal about quantum mechanics and how we create on a subatomic level.

The main character is repeatedly presented with complicated characters in which a method to relate needs to be cultivated. The little girl learns to shift her focus and find things she can like about these difficult characters, and even creates opportunities to make a connection.

This particular book is mostly about developing friendships and tolerance for others unlike oneself. I also offer reminders of how to stay focused in the present where appropriate.

 Book 3: Angels, Horses and Other Worldly Lessons

I embark on further discussions on quantum physics explaining the mechanics of how when we place our attention on something we collapse its wave potential and force it into a particle reality – matter, in essence.

I talk about emotions and thoughts being energy and more about changing what one ‘feels’ in order to create new life circumstances.

I give more strategies for quieting one’s mind and listening to intuition. I offer a light meditation presented in an age-appropriate way encouraging the idea of living in the present and maintaining a positive attitude.

My angel character, Marguerite says, “One of the most important ways to feel happier is to avoid basing happiness on whether or not anything changes in the world outside of yourself…”

I use horses as a means to show the characters in the book aspects of human nature.

I talk about time and the possibility of parallel universes and inter-dimensional travel.

While the characters continue to have issues surrounding complicated friendships they learn forgiveness and tolerance.

What can you do with time? Waste it? Spend it? Kill it? Use it? Cherish it? Chase it? Ignore it? Embrace it? Wish it wasn’t?

Any other ideas? I am writing an article about asking children philosophical questions, one of which is, “What can you do with time?” I would love some more ‘timely’ ideas!

I wrote this article back in  March 7, 2009 ~ and I thought I would re publish it.  As I’ve been busy visiting schools and meeting with teachers, these are only some of the deep curiosities experienced in my wonderful encounters ….

How can the Law of Attraction make a difference in my life?

By becoming aware of your predominant thoughts, and continually shifting your focus away from what you do not want towards what you do want, you will begin to see a change in the situations presenting themselves in your life. You will begin to realize that it is YOU who is actually in control. You will no longer feel like a tiny boat being tossed about by a turbulent sea.

How can I use the Law of Attraction to get what I want?

You can have anything you want – but you have to decide what it is you really want and stick with that thought. The more energy you put into a thought or an idea the more quickly and firmly it will manifest in your life (good or bad). Your current situation in life is a direct result of what you are feeling, thinking and believing.

Shift your focus to thoughts that include only what you want.

Continually seek a better feeling. If you are feeling doubtful and victimized you will not attract what it is you are wanting. Feelings are the ultimate creative engine!

Take some proactive measures to bring the feeling of your desire into your current reality. When you think of it do so as if the object of your desire is already in your current reality. Access the emotion of it by cutting out pictures of it, painting it, drawing it, and creating it in any way you can. Keep it in your imaginary reality and it will manifest in your physical reality (there is real science behind this).

Stop worrying! Worry removes your focus from everything else and shifts your focus in a concentrated way on the very thing you fear. Worry and fear then join forces to bring into your existence that which you are fearing! The Law of Attraction responds not only to what we want but also to what we don’t want consciously as well as subconsciously.

And… of course… READ MY BOOKS!

Why would you want to teach Quantum Physics to kids?

Well, why not? We spend a lot of time teaching them Newtonian Physics (gravity) and plenty of other things that seem to control their reality. We can empower children by showing them how their world is created on a sub-atomic level, and show them how they are fully involved in it whether conscious of it or not. What better gift than to show a child they have the power to control their world.

Isn’t this just positive thinking?

This goes way beyond the idea of controlling your life through “positive thinking.” Although ‘positive thinking’ is a nice start, it won’t create a reality in and of itself. The reality is really created by thinking and feeling together. Mindless repetition of a positive thought doesn’t work because there is no feeling behind it. I have a friend who has labeled this the “Happy Face Sticker Over the Empty Gas Gauge” syndrome. To manifest your desires a fair amount of attention needs to be placed on that intended desire. Here’s the really tricky bit: to place attention on it and then ‘let it go’ and know it is forthcoming. No clock-watching to determine constantly whether or not it is here yet. Doing so only brings the thought that it isn’t here yet so it isn’t coming, and that emotion pushes it farther away.

Sounds like science fiction to me…

You needn’t take it from me. There are innumerable resources which explain this at different levels of complexity. Quantum Physics has been around since at least the 1930s when Einstein began to popularize his atomic theories. We’ve all heard of E=MC2 (which, by the way, I explain to children 8-12 years old easily in Book 2, Summer of Magic Horses). Once the Quantum Physicists got the Philosophers to understand how reality is created on a subatomic level, we were, and are, able to deliver it to the general population in terms they can understand and relate to.

What other messages do your books contain for children?

Learn to listen to your intuition.

By learning to listen deep within yourself you can gain insight into any situation. We are all graced with an inner knowing, an inner guidance system, which allows us to steer our way through life effortlessly if we pay close attention. Sounds simple, yet it is not easy because we get distracted by dramas unfolding in front of us.

We are all ‘One’

By realizing that we are all part of each other, every entity, every object, everything; by the mere fact that we are made up of the same energy and only separated by the frequencies with which we vibrate, we gain the understanding that we are one thing. To do harm to another simply means doing harm to oneself. By offering kindness to another we are being kind to ourselves. All beings and things, no matter what they are apparently made of, deserve the same respect we would have for ourselves.
