Where's your Instant Pot?



 
Hi everyone,
 
I am soooo eager to share with you about the results of my doing Splankna for ONE WHOLE MONTH!  However, that could take awhile and I have lots to do today.  Perhaps I'll be able to do that tomorrow on my day of rest.
 
I can share that I owe Splankna Therapy a big thanks for helping me conquer my fears of my Instant Pot.  I bought the Instant Pot a few months ago but promptly put it in storage under my island.  I even understood why I put it out of sight. 
 
You see, when I was growing up, my mother was learning to cook with a pressure canner.  She told me about the cautions she was given when she bought her pressure canner.  I'm not talking about the cautions mentioned in the manual that came along with her purchase.  I'm talking about the horror stories passed around between housewives about pressure canners BLOWING UP!!!
 
I'm uncertain as to how I worked up the courage to buy an Instant pot in the first place.  How can we ever understand ourselves??   I know that I've been wanting a friend in the kitchen ever since my daughter got married.  lol 
 
So I've been watching videos on You Tube on how to use an Instant Pot to make marvelous food full of nutrition very quickly.  I kept watching videos and dreaming of the day when I'd have enough courage to drag my unit out from under the island. 
 
One night, earlier this week, the day was so full that I didn't realize that it was way past the time to begin preparing the steak I had laid out for supper.  "THIS IS IT," I said to myself and out came the Instant Pot. 

I watched several interesting videos and decided on the one the mom of 4 had made.  I wrote down the steps and 45 minutes later I served my guys tender, juicy steak with gravy that I made in the Instant Pot.  Nothing blew up but my fears.  Now my Instant Pot has taken it's rightful place on the counter between my coffee maker and my Bosch!!  YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
So, how can I credit Splankna for this success?  Well, if you read the post just previous to this one, you will have learned about collar bone statements and how to use them to reduce fears that hold us back in life.  If you haven't seen it yet, it's amazing how this works, and I urge you to watch it.
 
Now, I don't recall ever doing a Collarbone Statement to clear my fears of learning how to use my pressure cooker.  However, I've been doing them regularly now--like 2 - 5 a day.  Somewhere in all of that clearing out of old junk, I shed whatever was keeping me afraid to use my Instant Pot.  How do you like THAT for a side effect?
 
So, today I'm going to make yogurt in my Instant Pot.  How do I know?  Because I made up my mind to learn and I went in search of a video to teach me.  This one is GREAT!!!  I'll share a photo of my yogurt when it's finished!!   So, if you like me, have an Instant Pot under your island doing nothing, I urge you to do a collar bone statement to help you get over the fears and get to cooking!!  YUMMM!
 
Happy Preparation Day everyone!

I said WHAT?

MY JOY IS GROWING EVERY DAY!!!!
 
You may recall that I was able to participate in the Splankna level 1 training in Denver last month.  It has completely changed my life and the lives of those I've been privileged to work with since then!!
 
A Splankna session starts out with prayer for the Holy Spirit to guide the client and I to the area that needs to be addressed.  We then remove resistance to the session; find and release the central emotion that needs to go; and do the same for all supporting emotions.  Next we identify the trauma that was involved with all of these emotions.  Then we identify a vow or lie that the enemy convinced my client to believe when they were in a vulnerable time of life. The client then prays to break the vow and I seal up the session with a prayer for protection.  Lastly, we thank God for the work He has allowed us to do through our time together!   Usually there are lots of smiles and sometimes tears of joy.
 
Some vows that I've been privileged to help people break are "God doesn't love me;" "I will never love anyone ever again;" "God doesn't want me happy;"  "Friends aren't worth it;" "I will never say thank you again;"  "I will never trust anyone again;"  "We'll never be able to pull together to make this thing work;" "Sabbath isn't worth it;" and "God loves my sister more than He loves me!"
 
Can you see how believing these lies can wreck a life?  I received this testimonial from one of my Splankna clients.  I rejoice to share it with you to give you hope of a better life too! 
 
 
I participated in a Splanka session with Dawn that uncovered a lie I'd believed for 30 years which was causing major anxiety symptoms.  After our time together, the symptoms were completely resolved and haven't returned.  I have felt lighter and freer ever since.  Thank you, Dawn, for the beautiful healing you guided me through.  I am deeply grateful.

 
I'm taking time today to share the hope I've found with this program.  I, myself, had made a vow when I was 14 years old that I would never sing wholeheartedly ever again.  My very musical family was also an incestuous family.  They killed my desire to pour myself into my singing.  Fortunately, in class, the woman who gave me my very first Splankna session was able to help me to revoke that vow!  Then I repented of all the harm that it has done in my life by my clinging to it. 
 
The truth is that my gift is singing praises to God with the voice He has given to me.  Yes, I have noticed a difference this month in the quality of my voice.  Instead of a mere whisper, the strength of my voice is growing with the strength of my desire to use it to praise our amazing Heavenly Father!!!
 
You don't have to wait for a Splankna session to begin to benefit from this Christ-centered system of healing.  One of the ways that we remove resistance to the session is through collarbone statements.  This video shows you how to do them for anything that is holding you back in life. 
 
I pray that my writing this will encourage you to find a Splankna practitioner near you!  Here's the link to the website: https://splankna.com/   God wants us well and FULLY functioning in our gifts.  He has a plan for each of us and it is GOOD!!!
 
God bless,

Dawn

Who will win?

 
 
Tomorrow is election day in America.  I'm once again helping with the election as a Judge.  My duties will be to initial each ballot; hand it to the voter; inform them to completely fill in the ovals by the name of the person they choose (even write-ins); give them a secrecy sleeve for their ballots; and point them to the voting booths. 
 
It's not difficult work.  It's not inspiring work but it IS important work.  Helping to insure that the election is fair to everyone IS important. 
 
The most important work, though, I've been doing for weeks. By encouraging everyone to vote, I am giving them a voice.  "One vote doesn't matter," is sometimes used as an excuse for not taking the time to vote.  Those who think that need to read "Horton Hears a Who!"  EVERY VOTE MATTERS!!!!!  YOUR vote matters!!!
 
Please keep the elections in your prayers!  That is another way you can help your/our country to choose the best leaders.  Please keep us poll workers in your prayers too!  It gets to be a long day! 
 
Lastly, I pray that people will pull together in our country and around the world.  I pray that the peace the angels sang of on the night of Jesus's birth WILL become reality everywhere on this globe!  What marvelous things can be accomplished when people work together for the well-being of all of us!!!
 
We all have our opinions on things.  It's natural that there will be disagreements.  However, when our hearts are set on peace, God WILL make a way for it to happen!!  I'm thinking of a movie that I've never been able to forget. 
 
This movie is called SILENT NIGHT and is a true story that occurred during WW2.  Both sides met in a cabin in the woods on Christmas Eve.  The blizzard outside forced them to make peace for just one night and lives were changed for the better!!  It's an amazing movie and I urge you to watch it.
 
In the meantime, I pray for a peaceful election day tomorrow no matter who wins!!  Even if the "Wrong person" wins, does that limit God from using that person to accomplish His purposes?  NO! 
 
Here's a poem to give us pause as we go to the polls.  I pray that it blesses you as it did me.
 
For His kingdom to come on Earth,

Dawn
 
 

Pray For Election Day

Election Day is upon us
In America once more.
We will choose candidates
And vote as we have before.

What a responsibility!
For wisdom, we must pray
And make the right choices
As we vote on Election Day.

Please don't be indifferent
And say, "What'll be will be."
Try to make a Godly choice
For leaders for you and me.

Prayer makes a difference
In who wins each race,
So Christian, we must pray
And seek God's holy face.
