Today’s Mandala Message: Get to the Total Truth

This week I’m working through Principle #29 from Jack Canfield’s “The Success Principles” entitled “Complete your Past to Embrace the Future”. I set my intention today to ponder the idea of getting down to the total truth. Canfield states: “The Total Truth Process and the Total Truth Letter are tools to help you release negative emotions from the past and come back to your natural state of love and joy in the present.” … as taught to him by John Gray and Barbara DeAngelis.

Essentially these tools (Total Truth Process & Total Truth Letter) take you from anger to love in six stages:

  1. Anger and resentment
  2. Hurt
  3. Fear
  4. Remorse, regret, and accountability
  5. Wants
  6. Love, compassion, forgiveness, and appreciation.

You can download Canfield’s PDF document entitled How to Have Difficult Conversations where he describes these tools.

A good mindfulness practice would be to allow yourself to arrive at your Total Truth.

So how about you? How do you cope with negative emotions? How do you process them? Are you aware that they may be from unresolved issues from your past…and are holding you back now?

“Just be honest with yourself.
That opens the door.”

— Vernon Howard

My Mission: connecting with our Inner Light in delightful, inspiring ways For me, creating mandalas is more than just coloring pretty patterns in a circle. I do it because my spiritual evolution and creativity require it of me. My mandala designs come about within an active meditative state, connected with my higher self, my spiritual guides and nature spirits. Together, we bring into form, mandala art the allows me to re-connect with my own inner peace and joy, letting me explore and expand my own creative spirit to however far and in whatever direction I want to take it. As part of my own spiritual journey, I encourage, and hopefully inspire, others to explore their own creativity, to help them re-connect with their own inner peace and joy. As a means to that end, I make all of my mandalas available for people to color. Why should I have all the fun?
