Message from the Mountain

Some flowers including Queen Ann’s Lace in the wild and Yarrow in a domestic garden are essentially the same, except yarrow comes in different colors. Some people have wild ideas while others are more conservative. The key is to find a blend for the greater good of all. www.michaelhathaway.com/message-from-the-mountain Support the show

The Milkweed are now in the budding stage, and it won’t be long before the flowers will attract butterflies. It reminds me of the budding stage for our ideas. Some will reach the flowering stage while others will not. It can take courage to give oneself permission to take the risk of succeeding. www.michaelhathaway.com/message-from-the-mountain Support the show

The Ormond Garden is constantly adding new varieties of flowering plants that provide something of interest throughout the season. Positive diversity in life can add a richness of knowledge and understanding to our Soul’s journey. www.michaelhathaway.com/message-from-the-mountain Support the show

There is an old saying that you can’t teach an old dog new tricks, but I believe people that are willing can learn something new each day when they set their intentions. Recently I learned about catmint. Nature and people are great teachers. www.michaelhathaway.com/message-from-the-mountain Support the show

I am always looking for treasure, but not always the treasure that most people think of. It might be a turkey feather left in the grass or discovering a talent someone else has that goes unrecognized. Life is full of treasures that fill my heart with gratitude. You are a treasure to me! www.michaelhathaway.com/message-from-the-mountain Support the show

The pink dianthus flowers are currently in full bloom in the Ormond Gardens. They bring gratitude and joy to my heart causing me to feel in the pink. My intention is to share my positive feelings in many different ways to others like you. www.michaelhathaway.com/message-from-the-mountain Support the show

Every time I see the sunny face of a daisy, I think of the old song titled “A Daisy a Day”. I am grateful to Nature for giving me the opportunity to share its beautiful smile with others as I continue about my day. www.michaelhathaway.com/message-from-the-mountain www.buzzsprout.com/2037649 www.youtube.com/@MichaelHathawayHypnosis/videos Support the show

It is not uncommon to see an asterisk beside a word when reading a book. That often means there is more information available in the publication on the subject being read. We often have asterisks on our thoughts. It is information found in our subconscious minds when we open up to it. www.michaelhathaway.com/message-from-the-mountain Support the show

I like to look all around when I go for a walk in Nature. Recently my heart jumped for joy when I saw a small lichen heart nestled in the grass. Had I not been looking all around I could have missed this important affirmation for me. As I walk along my Soul’s path, I intend to be aware of all aspects of life. www.michaelhathaway.com/message-from-the-mountain Support the show

I have found that daily appreciation of Nature plays a major role in keeping on track with my life and soul purpose. In nature I take deep breaths, slow down my mind, and set my intentions to trust in the guidance that comes to me from my Source. www.michaelhathaway.com/message-from-the-mountain Support the show

In my mind, summer officially begins with the first blossom of my yellow daylily. I know that now I will be greeted with a colorful variety of blooms right through September. We measure life throughout the year by different events and yet each year offers a positive chance to learn and grow. www.michaelhathaway.com/message-from-the-mountain Support the show

It used to be that men were considered stronger than women and better suited for physical tasks. I have seen that change over the years as demonstrated by many of the females involved at the Center. They have taken over many of the tasks I used to be able to do, and I am grateful. www.michaelhathaway.com/message-from-the-mountain Support the show

Every day now there is something new to discover blooming in the flower garden, like the blue and yellow flags. No matter what time of year, there is always something to discover and share with others in a positive way. www.michaelhathaway.com/message-from-the-mountain Support the show

Looking back over my life journey, I have come to believe that nothing happens by coincidence. We are constantly having opportunities to learn, adjust, and make improvements on our soul’s journey. I realize that not everyone feels the same way as each path may be different. www.michaelhathaway.com/message-from-the-mountain Support the show

I have several routines that I intend to follow during the year that help me connect heart-based gratitude and positivity. Right now, I like to spend a little time each day wandering around the Center’s grounds and enjoying the flowers like the rhododendrons. Sometimes our routines get interrupted, and we feel off balance until we find the connection again. www.michaelhathaway.com/message-from-the...

I have been waiting a year for the lupine to bloom again. This next week I will visit the field as often as I can and am grateful to share it with others. We wait for many things in life, and sometimes they come and go without us noticing them. I have learned to set my intentions to be aware of special moments when they are happening. www.michaelhathaway.com/message-from-the-mountain Support the s...

JUNE IS BUSTING OUT ALL OVER. June 1st is often considered to be the first day of summer. Nature has come to life and so too has the opportunity to manifest winter dreams. Now is the time to be aware of each day with gratitude, so when fall comes, you won’t wonder where summer went. www.michaelhathaway.com/message-from-the-mountain Support the show

I discovered an old decaying tree stump with Canadian Mayflowers growing in it. Nature had helped find a home for these small wildflowers. People with positive outlooks can usually find a home for their acts of kindness that bring joy to others. www.michaelhathaway.com/message-from-the-mountain Support the show

We had a ladder propped up on the railing to the Center and the other day when it was moved, we discovered a very special surprise growing under where it had been. It was one of our favorite wildflowers only a few feet from the building. Every day can have a special surprise for us when we set our intentions for our next special discovery. www.michaelhathaway.com/message-from-the-mountain Support...

Our bridal wreath is in bloom. It came from my parents’ home which was brought there by a great aunt from her old homestead. I can imagine an old-fashioned wedding with bridal wreaths decorating the ceremony. There are still old-fashioned values that can create a sense of positivity in our lives. www.michaelhathaway.com/message-from-the-mountain Support the show

Years ago, I moved a small azalea from our house to the Center in a place that I thought was best at the time. Now with the focus on the Ormond Gardens, I feel it best to move it again. Some people change locations many times, often running away from situations that follow them, while others follow their hearts and start fresh again. www.michaelhathaway.com/message-from-the-mountain Support the sh...

A tiny flash of blue caught my eye as I wandered about the Ormond Gardens. I noted several ground covers that in time will cover the soil with a beautiful blanket. Most people have something about them that is eye catching to me that I want to learn about. Life is all about discovery and sharing. www.michaelhathaway.com/message-from-the-mountain Support the show

I must admit that I am a weather watcher. Every time I try to listen to a forecast my mind drifts on to my inner thoughts. Actually, it is one of my best ways to experience self-hypnosis. So, I prepare for the weather the best I can by keeping an eye on it. I do the same thing with life. www.michaelhathaway.com/message-from-the-mountain Support the show

I had been thinking about how great it would be to have some iris plants in the Ormond Gardens at the Center, and I could hardly believe my eyes when I found one in full bloom. Derek had planted it last fall. Wishes can come true, especially when they come through your heart. www.michaelhathaway.com/message-from-the-mountain Support the show

Over the years we have used different material to make signs to help guide people visiting the land. Now we have found the best ones yet. People have signs guiding them through life if they take the time to recognize and act on them. www.michaelhathaway.com/message-from-the-mountain Support the show
