You have the POWER! (Nathen’s Newsletter, May ’21)

May 29, 2021 by Nathen Aswell

Warm greetings and blessings to you, dear Friend!
May we embrace the POWER that’s within every one of us with Ease and Grace and JOY. 🙂

THIS MONTH’S TOPIC

(In video format! Please click here.)

As mentioned in the video above:

1) It seems that we’re figuring out how to lessen Covid 19’s impact on us all – Yes, Yay and AMEN! – AND, Love and Blessings to everyone in New Zealand, including my dear friend Christine Hayvice, who conquered Covid a while ago and set a fine example for the rest of us.

How have YOU been coping with the pandemic? What has helped to keep your heart happy? (For me, it’s been making music online; spending time with Kim, my beloved; staying connected to friends and family via Zoom, FaceTime, etc; and Chi running every morning (in which the principles of Tai Chi are combined with running – to learn more, please read Danny Dreyer’s book, “Chi Running“); long walks; and enjoying a lot of wonderful t.v. shows and movies on various streaming platforms.) Please e-mail me with your coping “tools”  – perhaps one/some of them will inspire someone else on my mailing list.

2) “Morning Musings’ – my weekly 10-15 minute offering which includes a musing, a new chant inspired by the musing, and some shared silence – continues and is now being carried on the New Thought Media Network. I’m excited about the opportunity to reach more people with my weekly offering, and I thank Rev. Robert Brzezinski for the opportunity. If you haven’t already, I hope that you can join me for one/some/all of these offerings! You can find the current one on my Facebook business page every Wednesday morning at 10:00 AM Pacific, or see any of them at any time on my YouTube channel.

I’m also blessed to virtually serve more and more spiritual communities in both Canada and the U.S. – sometimes, two or more of them on the same Sunday! (Some centers request that I pre-record music for them.) I’m curious to see how the lifting of covid restrictions will change all of this…! For up-to-date info on all of my performances, please visit my online calendar. 

 3) This month, I’ve been exploring POWER – an important part of my 2021 theme of SURRENDER, which is a deepening of my 2020 theme of FREEDOM. (My monthly themes for this year are inspired by the 12 Powers created by Charles Fillmore, the founder of Unity Church.) My chants have been about surrendering to the power within, embracing the power within, and affirming the Presence and Power that is the Divine/God/Spirit/Source/Perfect Love.

In honour of this month’s theme of POWER, this month’s video features “I Have The Power”, a 3-part chant about embracing the power within each of us, inspired by an affirmation from Unity church (“I have the power to create my world”), and powerful quotes from Susan Polis Schutz (“This life is yours. Take the power to choose what you want to do and do it well. Take the power to love what you want in life and love it honestly. Take the power to walk in the forest and be a part of nature. Take the power to control your own life. No one else can do it for you. Take the power to make your life happy.”) and Steve Maraboli (“Today is a new day. Don’t let your history interfere with your destiny! Let today be the day you stop being a victim of your circumstances and start taking action towards the life you want. You have the power and the time to shape your life. Break free from the poisonous victim mentality and embrace the truth of your greatness. You were not meant for a mundane or mediocre life!”). The chant begins at 7:27 in this month’s video (above). May it serve you well!

And, as always…
You can listen to my songs and chants here and here.
You can find the words to my songs and chants here.
You can buy my CDs here.

How about YOU, dear Friend? What’s most resonating in YOU this month, and how can I best serve YOU? WHEREVER you are on your journey, I’d love to hear from you, and I welcome suggestions for future Morning Musings or whatever else you’d like to share. Please e-mail me; we’re all in this together, and we have much to learn from each other. (BIG THANKS to all of the kind souls who respond to my newsletters; reading your comments is always a highlight of my month.)
