Disappointment and It’s Consequences
Are you one of those people that always seems to be unhappy about something?
You plan something and work hard, but the end result never seems to be what you hoped for.
Living in the cycle of disappointment isn’t the easiest road. Every time your creative force is put into action, it gets caught up in the dream. The thoughts, the energy in your actions- is actively set into motion through your beliefs and the effort you put in to build upon them.
The excitement is palpable. You can breath it, smell it, touch it if you dare. You have a new reason to get up and live for. You find meaning in life. Why not go after the “dream”?
Yet does your final product ever end up looking how you planned?
Have you ever taken time to notice what is permanent and what is not? As you look into the world in which you live, find one thing that remains the same forever. Is that possible? Have you yet realized that change is always happening here on earth.
The moment you reach out your hand and try to grasp something, the form or the object has already transformed into something new. Observation in itself brings change to that which is being observed. That is the way here on earth as perceived by human beings. When you look carefully, each supposed structure has its own unfolding, and its own relationship to everything else. And until we realize that we are all the center of the universe- living and pulsing, interconnected and empty in the void as One Being, we will experience the cycles of life and death and all that goes with it. Each point a living organism reaching, connecting, withdrawing, nothingness… going through its different cycles like a spiral.
In these cycles of creativity, for something to be real and to last eternally all expectations need to be dropped. The dream needs to be broken. It’s necessary to rip yourself apart from the necessity to be adhered to something that is only meant to be a momentary human experience. It’s not reality of all things. How often does one witness, the whole situation? Indeed,your dreams are only fragments of the truth.
Suffering is when we try to cling onto something that will never stay the same and in fact is only an illusion. The only way to break the cycle of disappointment is to acknowledge what is in the moment as something whole and complete. Explore the moment fully with the senses and your feeling body. Mindfulness is a good entry way into this state of being. Slow down and find the gratitude that does live inside of you for what is showing up here on earth. Awakening is a process of shattering the dream and finding the truth of what is real.
Next time you find yourself feeling disappointment, use a whole new fresh approach to your life. Count your blessings even if this only the first act of your personal paradigm shift. Find even the smallest speck of light and re-connect from there. Bring it into you and outside of you. Bathe in the light. Spread the light. Be generous. Give to the places where you least want to give. Stop holding back. Open your arms and spread them wide. Be vulnerable. Open up. Embrace the Universe for what it is… as vulnerable as that may feel. Feelings of sadness and grief may show up. You may end up feeling angry or upset.
But my friends, this is how suffering ends…
Disappointment can only rule your life is you cling to it. It dissolves as we unleash the beliefs we hold about ourselves and others, and let go of our future expectation.
There is so much to look for forward in today. But it will never quite be what you imagined. Thank God for the mystery!
Letting go of your Dreams to Live in the Truth.

Barbara Brennan’s School is situated in the South of Florida.
It moved there many years ago because Barbara Brennan wanted to find a location where Brennan Healing Science® could be learned in a college environment. It was her dream to make this work mainstream and used in a professional manner.
Since that time, many people from around the world have continued to attend, making this a Unique Environment to learn about Energy Dynamics and various Healing techniques. The program involves a four year commitment to graduate with the fundamentals of Brennan Healing Science® used as its foundation. The curriculum is all encompassing and is set up to help people with personal evolution as well as in helping people to bring healing into their lives, their careers, and in service to the world.

What is gained from this experience is so much more than you could ever imagine. The many thousands of students who graduated from the school can attest to this. From the moment you enter into the beautiful vessel of Light called the Barbara Brennan School, you can count on being held and supported in a healing and growing container to evolve into the best you can be. The community is close-knit, and immediately one feels like part of the family and connected to the greater whole… from the beginning students from over 35 years ago, to the students there now, studying and participating in this program is only improved from one generation to the next. There is a common thread that all the students live with in their commitment to complete their personal and spiritual work that is rarely found elsewhere. This community of the Sacred Human Heart is something that will touch you in the deepest places.
Beyond the Awakening Skills and other changes one experiences, the students also learn to work with clients. This begins with first year students learning how to ground and explore their inner landscapes while being in contact with their clients. It is a good time to learn more about the Self, belief systems, but also how to hold color vibrations, and hold the lower levels of the fields. It is a wonderful time to strengthen the core through nourishment and nurture and self-inquiry. The second year takes the student even deeper. This is the year that relationships become key in the exploration process. For those interested in astral work, this is an adventure. Some of the skills that are learned are basic spine cleaning, working with the astral realm and diving through the darkness, learning to come back through with even more light. It can be a bit of a roller coaster, but well worth the ride. The third year feels more spiritual as the student learns to inquire into their relationship in the higher levels and to God. Authority issues are often questioned and encountered as the curriculum supports Surrendering into the Divine. It’s a very special year because of the beauty and light that shines through as one begins to touch deeper into Spirit. The fourth and final of the basic four year program includes writing a Case Review of a specific Client, and also writing a paper of how to bring your unique blend of Healing into the World. Other skills such as “hara” and Core Star® are also learned to help bring alignment and the Four Dimensions of the Physical, Astral, Hara, and Core Essence into integration in ones life.
Personally, I felt so inclined that I continued to go further with the BIP program to Supervise Students and Groups, and the ASED program which prepared me to teach. I was honored to teach the third year as a faculty member, and am forever grateful to have to received and also shared the teachings of this work. One of my favorite things to do is guide clients to find their own truth and light as they progress through the years at BBSH.
I know that people have questions about energy healing. Many of us have had experiences of Higher Sense of Perception where we perceive more than what most do with the naked eye. Most children have the abilities to sense beyond, but are taught to discount theses experiences. But something inside that wants to awaken keeps sending sparks of light out to remind us that we are much more than we ever imagined. The School is helpful for people who have experienced a kernel of the truth. It is a container of Love and Kindness with expertly trained people to pass on the skills needed to be a successful healer. And let’s face it- the world needs more healing!
So if you have any questions- or are wanting to do a session either in person or via phone/Skype, call Sharon Hartnett LMT for a session to help you find your way back to Grace. Telephone number is (614) 372-6598 in Columbus, Ohio.

Are you sure that you want to change your life?
Change means actually allowing habits to be broken. Are you up for the challenge?
Progress requires a price to pay, and you have have the power to change your thinking to volunteer for freedom. Your evolution is counting on your commitment.
Press the Blue Button for Change!
The majority of us face different places where we are stuck in our lives… yet the possibilities or awareness of positive change, indeed, is already resting in the Unknown, waiting to blossom and awaken the depths of your soul. But have you lost your connection to the creative process? Has joy and vitality escaped you recently? Are you ready to commit to breaking habits that have been holding you back?
Whether your creative amnesia falls under the categories of your personal inner landscape, business successes, health or even just learning how to relax and find quiet, those who feel stuck have become too accustomed to a certain sense of functioning whether it is healthy or not. We live in a world that we have created based on certain choices from a cellular level to the global consciousness in which we have grown and hopefully evolved somewhat. And being human, that often means limited beliefs. So- fortunate are we to be living in the matrix of our own reality which is always ready to expand and be taken to the next level, with each experience. Change is just a shift away.
Feeling stuck is an indication of stagnation. It can show up physically, emotionally, in our belief systems, our heart connections or spiritually. Indeed, it may take some time to even discover that we are have lost fluidity until discomfort or pain reminds us that something is out of balance. But rest assured, that we can find a way to wake up in order to be more proactive in bringing ourselves back into the unity.
So how does one heal areas in life where there feels to be no movement?
- The first thing is to become mindful of what is working in your life and what isn’t. In order to do this, it is important to be curious whether your thoughts are limiting you. Write down your stressful beliefs and begin to question the truths and the lies you tell yourself and others. You may not believe that you lie, but strategies and information has been taught to you that is not true. You have learned to believe these untruths. It is only in asking while experiencing discomfort that you can open to a new point of view. Connection to the whole is key.
- Bring awareness to sensations in your body that can offer vital information that can lead you back to your true essence. Listen to these subtle vibrations and trust their message. Ask your body to complete and cycles that are blocked from completion. Move with the rhythms of your body from the micro level to the large extended possible lengths.
- Be attentive to the thought that everything is temporary. Allow yourself to look at nature and remember the cycles of God’s creation here on earth. When nature’s form is through, it is finished and transforms into something new. One only needs to look at the butterfly to experience transformation. However, this change shows up everywhere and in everything. Birth and death may seem like reality, but something deeper than that is at play. Something that is whole and complete.
- Ask for help. I know this sounds easy, but often people don’t like to ask. If your body hurts, find a massage therapist or gym coach, if you are feeling emotionally stuck- find a psychotherapist, if you feel lonely-reach out to family and friends, if you feel disconnected to God- begin to meditate and pray. Remember at least one moment when everything felt like love and wholeness and begin to let go of everything that stands in the way of that connection. Ask for the Higher Self to guide you through your difficulties.
- Many people say it is the Will that takes you across the barriers. But the will itself is just another thought with some burst of energy behind it. If you want to change, it is necessary to be vulnerable and to feel deeply. Our defenses or strategies keep us stuck, and those need to be surrendered for real change.
If you want to experience progress in your life… self-discovery is essential. It all begins with you and your commitment to Self. When you can direct your positive intention inward and open up to miracles, life will show you want you have been longing for. Stay on track… and with others. We are all in this together.
Choose Freedom by acknowledging the truth in all things.
