Dr. Jean Marie Farish

Love Light inspires you to cultivate a lifestyle of living in the spirit of love, based on the premise of wholehearted connections through worthiness.

My personal mission of altruistic and heart-centered living is grounded in the power of love to become authentic, overcome unworthiness, and transform our lives. You will gain a new perspective on the meaning of love, engage in authentic expressions of love and strengthen and embody the practice of love for yourself and others in your daily life.

    FINDING INNER PEACE

    Dr. Jean Marie opens with a LOVE LIGHT Meditation. We are constantly bombarded with outside forces that disrupt our peace. Whether it's a series of events, behavior of others, or our own life challenges, we feel tired, emotionally exhausted, and at risk of losing ourselves in chaos and drama. How do we get to a place of peace? A powerful quote by Saint Francis de Sales reminds us of our responsibility to preserve our peace, "Never be in a hurry, do everything quietly and in a calm spirit. Do not lose your inner peace for anything whatsoever, even if your whole world seems upset". This is a tall order but central to our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual wellbeing. Reclaim your power and return to your natural state of peace, love and joy by: Getting quiet, Setting your intention for peace, Moving into Stillness, Anchoring in divine love, and Dwelling in peace. Dr. Jean Marie highlights each. Life is your epic journey. How will you choose to travel? Inner peace brings so many positive emotions and rewards. It is not escaping from problems but gives us clarity, understanding and coruage to gain a new perspective. It enables us to accept life as it comes, engage in authentic self-expression and fully participate in all facets of life. From a peaceful heart free of anxiety, confusion and worry, divine love flows. There is victory in peace and we should aim for this in all life circumstances with the realization that all is happening for our own spiritual evolution. Make peace with yourself and you will make peace with all that manifests in your life. Be grateful and know all is well! Our Love In Action Practice is to take time to free yourself from external noise and distractions. Take time to be at peace with yourself. Throughout the day take well needed emotional breaks and respites for peace. Get quiet, set your intention for peace, move into stillness. Feel the peace radiating from within. Affirm, I Am Peace. Feel the flow of peace encircling your inner being and radiating outward into the world. Be present in this moment of peace. Revisit this place and be restored with peace throughout the day. Dr. Jean Marie closes with her excerpts on Self-Composure and Inner Peace.

    WHY YOU MUST LEARN TO FLOW LIKE THE RIVER TO FLOURISH IN LIFE

    There's a river in each of us that knows no boundaries. The image of water provides an outward reflection of our inner self. Like the surging power of a rapidly flowing river, life can be unpredictable without knowing where it may lead. However, we have the innate capacity to navigate change with grace and ease. This requires faith and trust in ourselves and knowing that we are on the right path for forwarding movement. The sustainer of life, water is a gift of nature that nourishes our entire well being. Associated with qualities of ever-changing emotions, feelings and intutition, going inward we can connect to our true selves and embrace change. Marked by ancient and traditional ceremonies around the world and integrated with other forms of healing, meditations and blessings, our sacred connection to water nurtures our collective spirit. Water inititation rituals support our life's journey by surrendering to what we do not know and taking us just where we need to be. During the time spent in the Himalayas, immersed in nature and surrounded by breathtaking views, majestic mountains, pristine rivers and waterfalls, my mind, body and soul were refereshed. Keenly observing the rivers flowing downstream, gently washing over obstacles and meandering around rocks embedded in the stream, nothing stopped the natural flow. Taking time for journaling and self-reflection, I became one with the river and felt a profound sense of serentity. When we are out of the flow, we feel dammed up, stagnant, and out of balance resulting in stress and anxiety. When we are in sync, like the flow of the river, we trust our decisions and know that we are divinely guided. Water consciousness has a deep symbolic meaning that shows us the dynamic fludidity of nature moving through cycles, rhythms, and patterns representing change and transformation. Connect with the sacred flow of the river to be healthier, happier and more creative. Flourish like the river to achieve clarity, patience, freedom, goodness, and endurance as you move forward on your path to achieve the life you desire. Dr. Jean Marie highlights each. Our Love In Action practice is twofold. Reflect and journal on challenges you faced and overcame. What did you learn? How did you grow? What was the outcome. How are you all the better for it. Build on the lessons and the blessings. Next, reflect and journal on what you are trying to hold on to and control that you need to let go. Why are you holding on? How can you love yourself more, surrender and release the reins of control?

    FINDING YOURSELF

    Can I really  be lost? What detoured me from my path? How can I get back on track? Findng yourself is an ongoing journey of self-discovery that can ultimately lead to self-mastery. It takes a great deal of self-trust,  self-discipline, self-confidence and courage to follow your own path. The voices of others influence how we think, what to believe, and how to behave. Some of those voices, established very early in life, may be positive and negative. The negative ones derail us and are often remembered most. Unfortunately, the struggle to conform, based on fear of being ridiculed, rejected and alienated, inevitably takes priority over our heartfelt desires. Abandoning ourselves, we become frustrated with self-imposed limitations. Furthermore, on the human plane, we lose connection with our true self. As you endeavor on your life's  journey, alone time is necessary to get to know yourself. The adventure of self-discovery can be challenging. However, it is an opportunity to experience a deeper spiritual connection as we forge ahead. Self-mastery keeps us from being steered off course by becoming more confident, courageous and resilient. We can find ourselves by living from the heart, fulfilling your passion and potential, practicing silence and stillness, learning from relationships, and attuning to nature. Dr. Jean Marie highlights each. Our Love In Action Practice is to reflect and journal on the roads less traveled and what you discovered about yourself along the way. Also, reflect on experiences staying in the comfort zone walking the same path. What are your beliefs that keep you from branching out. Think of something you would like to do that speaks to your heart. Take small steps to make this a reality. Share your insights and experiences.

    HOW TO CELEBRATE YOURSELF

    What does it feel like when you celebrate yourself? What dreams have you realized? How do you rejoice in your accomplishments? We often celebrate after reaching significant milestones at particular points in time or waiting until we achieve some distant future goal, without realizing the small steps taken that move us forward on our life's journey. The marks of celebration can be at any time and every day for any good reason in the process of self-discovery. Through transitional phases of our lives such as health challenge, relationship changes, or geographic moves, we may become so immersed in the challenge without recognizing how much we have overcome. Feel into the energy of celebration and triumph in your victory of personal growth, resilience and fulfillment. Celebrate by appreciating your uniqueness, acknowledging your goodness, nurturing yourself, and rewarding yourself. Dr. Jean Marie hightlights each. Our Love In Action Practice is two-fold. Reflect and journal on stuggles, obstacles and challenges overcome. What did you discover about yourself? How have you become more resilient and even better. Next, Think of ways to celebrate and reward yourself everyday. Even during hard times, reflect on your accomplishments and be uplifted. Also, celebrate small steps toward achieving your dreams and heart's desires. Feel free to share your insights and observations: Email: jean72farish@yahoo.com Dr. Jean Marie closes with her excerpts on Self-Belonging and Self-Celebration.

    BE TRUE TO YOURSELF

    Our lives emcompass all kinds of adaptations, adjustments and accommodations. Influenced by social networks and illusive standards of success and happiness, our identity and behavior can be ever changing. The need for approval, to fit in and be accepted, can be exhausting by the diffent roles played in various settings. Living up to external expectations such as maintaining a suitable image and being excessively ambitious, can result in losing yourself. Ambition ignites creativity and innovation, but in excess, can be detrimental. Healthy ambition helps us maintain balance and allow natural unfoldment. Life is experienced through the lens of core beliefs, which are assumptions about ourselves, others, and outlook on life. These beliefs, some formed during early childhood, may be limiting and do not reflect the truth of who we really are. Our true self is obscured by external identities and limiting beliefs that should be exposed, acknowledged and transformed. Our true, authentic self, is unchanging and the moral compass that guides our thoughts, feelings and behaviors resulting in satisfactory outcomes. Being tue to yourself is living by your own standards and not compromising your moral values nor worrying about what others think. Do what really matters and what is really important. You can be true to yourself by knowing your worth, acknowledging your feelings, nurturing your inner child and developing your support system. Dr. Jean Marie highlights each. Our Love In Action Practice focuses on knowing your worth and being in integrity with yourself. Pay attention to what makes you feel comfortable and uncomfortable. Our true feelings can be guiding forces. For example, if you are given a task that compromises your integrity, how does it make you feel? Explore your feelings. Do you feel conflict or strife? Do you move forward making a decision to honor the request even though you have doubts or do you honor your truth? Take time to give thought before responding. Conside rappropriate responses and reflect on the possible outcomes. What response makes you feel good about yourself?  Feel free to share your insights and experiences: Email: jean72farish@yahoo.com Dr. Jean Marie closes with her excerpt on "Inner Truth".

    LOVING AND CARING FOR OURSELVES IS LOVING AND CARING FOR OTHERS

    What will happen to me as I age? Who will care for me? How can I not be a burden to others? How can I get the most out of my life each day? It is our personal responsibility to love and care for ourselves. As we love and care for ourselves, we gracefully reciprocate to others. Our human society is interdependent and as humans, we cannot live and act in isolation. Healthy and complementary relationships help us thrive and enhance the quality of our lives. Life circumstances are unpredictable, and we never know when we may need the support of others or be in a position to give support to others. Caregiving can be stressful due to emotional, mental, and physical srain. If we complain and regard ourselves as a burden, it causes difficulty and hardship. If we are neglectful of our own self-care, we set up a challenge for those who have to care for us in the event we cannot care for ourselves. Within the realm of our capacity to care for ourselves, it is essential to practice a healthy lifestyle to maximize personal well-being throughout our lives. This means reframing from destructive habits detrimental to our physical well-being, changing negative self-defeating thoughts that inhibit quality living and managing our emotions to maintain satisfying relationships. As we age, it is hoped that we become wiser and more thoughtful of ourselves and others. When we are compassionate, considerate, and cultivate loving qualities, we become beautiful people to to aaround. Whether we are the giver or receiver of support, we must take care of ourselves in order to take care of others. Loving and caring for ourselves are mutually reciprocal and complimentary acts achieved by: Being healthy, peaceful, generous, and grateful for challenges. Dr. Jean Marie highlights each. Our 'Love In Action' Practice is to focus on being your personal best to get the most out of life each day. Reflect on how you nurture and nourish your overall well-being. Examine each aspect of yourself including physical, mental, emotional, intellectual and spiritual. Journal on things you would like to do and take action steps for each.
