Billed as &#8220;Exploring Spirit in Every Day Life,&#8221; Dr. Kaye kept the audience laughing at his jokes and anecdotes, and mercilessly ribbed attendees.  &#8220;Take the names of all those who didn&#8217;t stand for the standing ovation when I came in!  I want to know who they are,&#8221; joked Paul.  He started us off on a journey packed with reminders of all the things we can do to bring joy and Spirit into every moment of our ordinary everyday lives.<\/p>\n<p>Paul shared many helpful tips from the book, &#8220;Momentum: Letting Love Lead&#8221; that he co-authored with John-Roger.  &#8220;I really liked the concept of priming the pump,&#8221; shares Kate Martin, a minister from Kentucky.  &#8220;Paul suggested using the phrase, &#8216;I love this&#8217; when a situation is unpleasant.  &#8216;I love this&#8217; primes the pump to begin finding the good in the situation, allowing a positive change to be made in the situation or in my attitude.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Certainly the simplest technique shared was watching the breath for 10 seconds.  Most of the audience raised their hand to indicate they had noticed a change in the quality of their focus after they had watched their breathing for only 10 seconds.  Paul suggested watching one&#8217;s breath three times a day.  Certainly we can all find 30 seconds in our day to refocus inwardly and become calmer. <\/p>\n<p>Many people attending had never been to an MSIA event before.  Paul chose new people in the audience to offer up thoughts about what made up their &#8220;false self&#8221; such as guilt, ego and judgments.  The same folks then shared what made up their &#8220;true self&#8221; &#8212; loving, joy, forgiving and accepting.  The &#8220;newbies&#8221; did a great job having never been exposed to MSIA&#8217;s teachings!  The audience then shared experiences in their relationships, careers, finances or health where they were not satisfied and talked through their layers until they reached the &#8220;true self&#8221;, which found much more grace and ease in the situation.  <\/p>\n<p>Paul kept us laughing throughout and everyone felt more peaceful and more present at the end.  Paul signed copies of &#8220;Momentum: Letting Love Lead&#8221; for the participants and yummy cake was served as the audience visited and browsed the gift shop.
