The 7 Huna Principles of Life – 4. MANAWA

There are several beliefs about how our past shapes our present. From the eastern concept of Karma where you good or bad actions shape your present and you now have to eat those "Karma fruits" (i.e. you have to bare the positive or negative consequences of your past actions) to a western belief that our present is vastly shaped through our genes or our early upbringing, and therefore mostly controlled by influences outside of our own power.The shamanic Huna tradition has a very different viewpoint on what shapes your current reality. It is NOT the past that has shaped you into what you are today, nor has it given you, what you now have.

The 7 Huna Principles of Life – 3. MAKIA

Whatever you spend most of your conscious and unconscious time thinking off, will grow in your reality. This works on the positive as well as on the negative side. If you focus the majority of your attention on why things are not working out the way you want them to, then your struggles will grow and become more concrete through time. If you aren't clear about your goals and direction, then the fuzziness will grow within your life.

The 7 Huna Principles of Life - 2. KALA

Actually Kala has two meaning attached to it. First it states that there are no limits, and second it points at the necessity to release and forgive, which are the 2 ways to overcome those limits.This is the same approach that unwrapping your mind is all about. There are no real limits to your life, to your capacity to the universe and what it will give you freely - other than those that you define for yourself. That thought at first seems unrealistic, since we do see limits all around us. Our bodies can only grow to a certain height, we only can see up to a certain distance, our ears can only hear within a limited frequency range, we only live a certain amount of years, the earth is limited in its dimension, resources are limited, we only have a certain amount of money in the bank – limits, limits and even more limits. So what’s this no-limit thing all about?

The 7 Huna Principles of Life – 1. IKE

This refers to the importance of belief. Whatever you believe in, you will manifest. If you believe the world is a place full of struggle and hardship, then surely hardship and struggle will come your way. If you believe that the world is a great place for adventure and happiness, that you will surely experience much more of those than the person believing in the world of struggle.

Master the Art of Giving

This is a guest article by Tess Marshalll from The Bold Life

“Give others all that is alive in us—our interest, understanding, our knowledge, our humor, everything in us that’s good. In doing so, we enhance the sense of aliveness in others while enhancing our own. When we give, we get a “heightened vitality” of what it means to be human.” –Erich Fromm

With our changing economic times, everyone is asking for help in some form. There are as many reasons to give as there are ways to give.

UNWRAPPED: The Ultimate Guide to Get Where You Want to Go - FAST! Part 5 - Check & Adapt Your Course

BEING OFF COURSE IS NORMAL

As much as I like that state of being fully aware of my doing and being present, I also know that l need to check frequently whether I am still on course.

Did you know that an airplane is most of the time of course? It doesn't matter whether it is on autopilot or whether on manual-flight, wind changes are resulting in slight deviations from the original course. So what a pilot (or an autopilot system) constantly has to do is to compare the current location with the planned route. Since the plane will be off course 99% of the time, the pilot needs to adjust to get back on course.
