A Course in Miracles

by Anne Malatt, Australia

Some years ago I met a man, Serge Benhayon, who inspired me. I had a healing session with him and began attending Universal Medicine courses. These courses have been a course in miracles.

WHY ARE THEY MIRACLES?

I am now my true weight, having carried over 20 kg in excess weight for years.

I do not diet, in the usual sense. I eat what I feel my body needs, in the quantity it needs, at the time it needs, to nourish and sustain it.

I have changed my diet, which was full of carbohydrates and sugar and loaded with gluten and dairy, to one which is now rich in quality, nourishing food.

I used to need to eat these foods to keep my exhausted body going and to help me to not feel the pain and sadness I was in. I now no longer need them, as I no longer feel this way.

I no longer drink coffee, having been addicted to it and needing it to get through the day.

I was exhausted, and needed coffee and sugar to fuel me, to keep me going, to do the things I thought I needed to do each day. I now have all the energy I need. It is only a breath away.

I no longer drink alcohol, having previously been addicted to it.

Alcohol was my ‘friend’. It was a treat at the end of a long hard day in a long hard life. It picked me up, it sweetened me, it was a substitute for caring for myself. It was my only way of giving myself permission to stop and sit. Now, if I want a moment with myself, I stop and take a moment. Just for me, just with me – wherever I am, without the need for anything from the outside. I love my days now and enjoy the way I feel at the end of my day, most days, and now I don’t need a reward to feel good.

I now sleep like a baby, having been an insomniac.

I used to stay up late, fuelling myself with alcohol, coffee and sugar. I never felt the day was enough, and would stay up looking for more. Now, I wind down after work and go to bed when my body is tired, by  9pm. I sleep soundly and wake feeling rested and refreshed in the morning, looking forward to the day.

I don’t often feel stressed now, having lived under constant (self-induced) stress in the past.

I still feel anxious and stressed at times, but when I do, I take a moment to stop and bring myself back, by focussing on my breath and what I am feeling in my body. I don’t go looking for stress or excitement to make me feel alive or to distract me from my other feelings, because I feel great and have no need for anything outside me.

I am now in the tenth year of my relationship, having been a serial runner-away from relationships.

This relationship has not exactly been easy. But we have, by loving perseverance and commitment to ourselves and each other, developed a quality of love that I would not have dreamed was possible for me when I was young.

I am in a loving relationship, having been in abusive ones before.

I now care for myself enough to have a relationship in which anything less than love is not tolerated. If either one of us brings less than love, in our words, behaviour or being, we say so, as lovingly as we can, to bring awareness to them and to help each other return to love. We are as honest as we can be with each other at all times, and whatever is happening between us, we deal with problems by remembering first and foremost that we love each other.

I like myself.

I did not used to feel this way. I now appreciate who I am and what I offer.

I care for myself.

I have come to understand that I cannot care for another until I learn to truly care for myself. And, I am putting this into practice, for myself, my family and for everyone.

On a good day, and most days are, I even love myself.

Every one of these is a miracle. Together, they are amazing. And today, I am amazing, and I feel it and I know it. I am a living miracle.

HOW HAS THIS HAPPENED?

  • I have never been told what to do (no-one has ever been able to do that!).
  • I have been shown a loving way of life, by someone who lives it himself. Serge shares this way with his family, who also live it, and they share it with others.
  • I have been inspired by example: a simple, loving way of life, that is natural, that is the way my body truly wants to live.
  • I have been reminded that this way is found inside me, by listening to my innermost voice, the living wisdom of my body.
  • I have re-connected to myself, and made this connection my way of life.
  • This way is the Way of the Livingness.

  1. Miracles are usually associated with some sort of divine intervention, though you could say it was the divine intervention that inspired you to reconnect to the miracle you always were and rediscovered…. it is in truth our nature.

  2. “I have come to understand that I cannot care for another until I learn to truly care for myself. And, I am putting this into practice, for myself, my family and for everyone.” I completely relate to this, we have to start with self before we start with others, this is my experience too.

  3. I so love the simplicity and beauty of what you share here as the miracles. It’s like, why ever not? Really exposes the complication and self-sabotage we choose to indulge in and package as ‘that’s life’.

    1. I tool love the simplicity and beauty that has been shared here. It is clear to remind us of the magic we all bring.

  4. These really are significant changes, miracles no less, and beautiful how you describe them unfolding from re-connecting with yourself, from inside of you and how this developed in your way of living, not some randomly bestowed event.

    1. Its a great reminder that it is all within us, and it starts from us, not something outside of us where we give our power away.

  5. Could it be that life is full of un-utilised miracles and simple but profound life choices could unleash a whole plethora of miracles that are just waiting to happen?

    1. Absolutely. I believe life is full of miracles, it is us who has to say yes to them and start connecting from within.

  6. Wow – this is a miracle. A true blessing that you have absolutely changed how you are living and do so in a way where you have no investment in going back. This is very rare. Many times in the past I tried to give something up, and either i would go back or I would replace it with something else. So it shows how it can be difficult for us to let go of a hurt – but when we do – when we break the energetic connection – that is a miracle.

  7. Anne, this statement struck me as not only one that used to be very familiar to me in the sense of wanting to have fun doing exciting, adventurous things, but also for the way that we have been hood-winked by a belief that life is about experiencing new and exciting things. To me, now this feels like the folly of the human spirit who is constantly looking for the next ‘hit’ of excitement that confirms its separation from the soul (stillness/connected to God) and its ability to make choices that are only in the benefit of itself and not the whole of humanity.

  8. Yes all of these incredible turnarounds are absolute miracles. Most of the world’s population spends billions of dollars trying to achieve these miracles without going back to basics, taking responsibility and making life about love. You show how simple and powerful a true miracle can be.

  9. Yes The Way of The Livingness is something that works with all parts of our lives at the same time and not just a single part, which I find so super awesome about it.

  10. What you so beautifully describe Anne is a deepening relationship within ourselves, a reconnection to our innermost.

    1. Yes it is a deep relationship with self and when we take this journey, so much more is revealed from our innermost.

  11. And what an inspiration are you to all of us who have only recently come across the works of Serge Benhayon. People like yourself and others who have been practicing The Way of The Livingness to me are shining stars showing me the possibilities for me in life.

  12. Absolutely Beautiful Anne! I can feel the love you now have for yourself inspiring me to value, deepen and connect more to the love in myself and this is how the miracles get passed on.

  13. And the love grows and expands too, I bet you love yourself everyday now Anne, not just on a ‘good day’, as you are that Love. 🙂 Thank you for sharing the miracle of you.

  14. Sometimes the route of our life can seem inexorable and that we were forever destined to be as we are. Yet this is absolutely not true. Our everyday choices define what comes next and creates a momentum. It’s this build up of force that can seem predictable – it is, and takes some commitment to break. Thank you Anne for this powerful blog.

  15. It is a miracle that lives on and on, when we become aware of and can feel the contrast between living entrenched, encumbered and drowning in all that we are not whilst struggling to get through each day, to living more and more freely all that we are in awe of exploring the magic of who we are the life we are here to live, as a consequence of The Way of The Livingness. This is a way of living that at the end of the day is led by our connection to our Soul, our inner-truth, our wisdom in which we all have access to from within. A way of living that has no end to deepen our relationship with who we are, all that we are connected to, the universe, each other, God and our Godliness.

  16. It occurs to me that when we truly heal and deal with our hurts and our issues, miracles happen for it is they that form the causes of our lack of truth in life in the first place.

  17. I love this Anne. Beautify expressed and claimed. This is what The Way of The Livingness brings when we choose this way of living for ourselves. We become the miracles – it is utterly incredible what and how we heal.

    1. Beautiful we become the miracle when we choose to live in truth with our connection through The Way of The Liviningness.

  18. No longer needing certain foods because you no longer feel a certain way is a wondrous and glorious thing.

  19. Such deep appreciation shared in this blog about some of the miracles that have occurred for Anne, not just one but many miracles. Why is everyone not wanting what Anne has found?

  20. A course in miracles… absolutely Anne! Observing the change in my life, as a result of the Universal Medicine courses has been equally miraculous as yours. Observing the equal life changes of hundreds and hundreds of Universal Medicine students just make the miraculous changes normal!

  21. Miracles are aplenty when we choose to live life from the inside–out rather than from the outside-in. When we allow ourselves to live from the impulse of our innermost, we inform the outer with a more loving way to be rather than allowing the external world to shape who we are and thus deviate away from what is true and known deep within us all.

  22. This truly is a course, indeed a way of miracles… And I see these miracles reflected in simple expressions all around me in people who are choosing to live in the way that you describe Anne

  23. All of the things mentioned in this blog are indeed miracles considering the state of humanity at the moment, and what this shows us is that it is very simple to turn it around and to live in a different way that nourishes us instead of depletes us.

    1. Absolutely Julie. Many people will go to their grave without being able to turn around a single aspect of life the way that Anne has done and all because of a stubborn refusal to get honest, accept responsibility and connect to how incredibly gorgeous they truly are. This is a great tragedy when miracles are so easily accessible to those who seek the truth they know.

  24. There is this part of us that hides from the fact that we actually all know the truth solidly inside ourselves. Pretending we don’t is just an act. And when we finally align and go with the flow of the truth then amazing readjustments take place. We fill magazines full of sensational diet ‘transformations’ but it’s these loving Before and Afters like yours here Anne that should be front page news.

  25. I have to say I am a living miracle as well, thanks to The Way of The Livingness. I still have a way to go and far from being perfect, but I can so relate to waking up refreshed and not hungover ready for the day ahead after a perfect night’s sleep.

  26. ” I have been inspired by example: a simple, loving way of life, that is natural, ”
    This is so beautiful thank you Anne .

  27. When we have been so far from our true selves, no other person or courses have been inspiring as Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine.

    I love the miracles you described and a beautiful sharing, reading this enabled me to appreciate the miracles in my life since meeting Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine.

  28. We do a lot of things that harm our body and it is difficult to stop them because they serve an important purpose each. Once we deal with the purpose – which is actually possible – the need for the behaviour disappears and then we have a choice.

  29. Do we truly allow ourselves to feel the miracles that are taking place? Do we have pictures about how this looks or are we willing to see that in everything there is a miracle taking place because every moment offers an opportunity to embrace.

  30. Most of these behaviours you have left behind Anne are ones we gather along the way in life, we are not born doing any one of these and yet it is rare to find someone who is not being affected by at least one of them. In the context it is miraculous, though it is in fact our normal way.

  31. These changes you describe Anne are remarkable. Our world is full of self-help books with sage advice with which we agree and vigorously nod. But who actually makes these changes stick? And not only that but I feel how each one you outline roles into the next, all helping you live well and be the amazing you. It seems so simple the way you have outlined it here but in the context of the world today these changes are miracles and something to appreciate every day in all that you do.

  32. Any one of these is a miracle – all of them together is a great whopping miracle of life lived.

  33. Miracles really can occur every day. However, we have been indoctrinated into thinking that they have to be these huge and ostentatious things that occur and can only occur to the special or chosen ones. But that is just not the case, miracles can and do happen every day, it is just whether or not we have the awareness to see them.

  34. A miracle is when something occurs that we never thought was possible and The Way of The Livingness offers the miracle of living with love in all that you do.

  35. A miracle is anything that restores the expression of our innate divinity so that it is seen once more on the surface and not buried deep beneath.

  36. The Way of The Livingness is most certainly a miracle – like you Anne everything on you list I totally relate to and also was the way I was living. It has been completely life changing to be inspired by Serge Benhayon and the teachings of the Ageless Wisdom, that there is in fact another way we can live and it is a choice to reconnect to our inner being and live from a pulse that is of Love.

  37. The changes you have made are miracles . Most of the world is suffering from all the ailments you list Anne but you have managed to heal them all. To me this shows that they are all connected. Alcohol makes us restless and opens us up to energies that can affect our sleep, being over weight affects our sleep and so does stress. We need to look at all the things that affect us. If we don’t love ourselves how can we truly love another? This one has been a big one for me and one I am still working on, but when I do it is amazing how much life flows and is so much more enjoyable.

  38. It’s true Anne, what you are describing is a miracle, given how we live. I’ve taken the same course in miracles, with the same results. I recommend this course to all.

  39. Really love what you present here Anne. You remind me how simple it is to choose love if we truly want it. In fact we can start with a choice to breathe our own breath “I now have all the energy I need. It is only a breath away.”

  40. It’s pretty amazing, no “detox”, no New Years Resolutions, no rah-rah, just an inspiring reflection and support from Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine, and your own love guiding you to make changes – simple, yet extraordinary outcomes.

  41. Beautiful Anne, there are many miracles on offer when you commit to The Way of The Livingness – a simple yet truly powerful way to live that delivers this magic and joy every day.

  42. Could it be that we blind ourselves to the myriad of everyday miracles we are showered with because we are looking somewhere else than right before our very eyes to the beauty and magic unfolding within?

    1. This so true Liane we are so busy looking elsewhere trying to fix things or make things better that we don’t see the miracles that are unfolding right before our eyes every where we go. Appreciation is the key here it opens our eyes and allows us to see so much more.

  43. We tend to look at miracles as being magical and suddenly brought to us but the magic behind the miracles you show me today, when reading this blog, as being the result of our own choices and, that while the miracle could be there in an instant, mostly is the result of our unwavering commitment to love and nothing but love instead. Magic revealed….

  44. There are many false friends in what we consume, be it alcohol, tobacco, sugar etc…they all kept me company but never gave what they promised…being still, connected and aware of what is within me, my heart, soul, love, essence, rather than trying to drown out the busy thoughts in my head has worked wonders…miracles and I do not lean on false friends any longer. Connection with body, equals natural joy.

  45. And another miracle is the power of appreciation that this blog reflects. Amazing things happen in our lives but when they are not appreciated their full value is not known. Miracles like these continue to share their light in our lives – through our willingness to appreciate.

  46. This is an inspirational sharing for all Anne. For us to look at our lives and re evaluate as well as appreciate where we have come from to where we are now . I can see for myself how the teachings of Serge Benhayon of the Ageless Wisdom has made a huge difference to my life too!

  47. The miracle is feeling again the love and preciousness that we are, and so all our choices in life start to change, because we have lived in a way for too long that does not confirm this absolute truth.

  48. What you describe here Anne are true miracles one by one and you’ve been inspired by Serge Benhayon to re connect to this way called The Way of The Livingness and now you inspire others by reflection to choose this amazing way of life, a life full of miracles.

  49. Thank you Anne for an amazing sharing of all the miracles that have happened in your life, all the changes being possible through the loving choices to connect to your inner love and live this way, and these miracles are possible to all who find their way back home to their inner heart.

  50. This is a brilliant detail on what a true miracle is, it is a great exercise of appreciation and taking stock, very inspiring woman you are!

  51. The course you describe is available to us all, along with accompanying so called miracles, that will be miracles for each of us, and yet are the everyday that is available to all.

  52. This is a huge transformation. Wow what a story – thank you for sharing Anne – the changes have happened from the inside out and how gorgeous is that!

  53. These are the kind of true-life miracles that should be our front-page news – how different would it be to be met with genuine stories of healing and change rather than headlines and stories of bitching, gossip, lies and sensationalism…

  54. What you have shared in this blog Anne is very inspiring; I loved reading about what you learnt and the responsibility you exercised to make self loving choices.

  55. Anne, no doubt there are MANY more miracles that you could describe here…
    Just the ‘taste’ of what you’ve shared is deeply profound. You stand today as a woman removed from the angst and ‘quiet desperation’ (as Thoreau termed it) that most yet live in. A true role model that there is indeed a ‘way’, and that that way is, The Way of The Livingness.
    It is the natural way of all – to live so soulfully as you describe. Thank-you for sharing this absolute gold.

  56. Sometimes in life, it can seem inevitable that it’s turned out a certain way. We can take for granted that we are where we are at. But we miss then that we could so easily not have made the loving choices that we have, not have the gifts of beautiful relationships we enjoy every day and not live in the joy and pleasure we receive. It could be so different. When we cherish the choices for we have made we pave the way for more Love to come our way. Thank you Anne.

    1. This is so true Joseph. By appreciating our everyday miracles we provided the space for more of the same to unfold.

  57. Yes they are all miracles in the true sense, not the walking on water type, we have been tricked into thinking the only amazing things are big things that dazzle and amaze instead of appreciating the miracle of moving from a position of self hatred and self loathing to self love because in that you connect to the divinity of the universe and that is the pulse of all the magic we see all around us.

  58. We have been so short-changed by the concept that a miracle is something that is granted to us by powers greater than anything we could ever possibly be. Knowing yourself as that one and same power allows the everyday miracles that occur constantly to be seen and felt for what they are. A beautiful example of which you have shared here Anne.

  59. Re-connecting to our inner heart and living all that is impulsed from there is the key that opens the door to miracles in every moment of ones life – Thank you Anne

  60. It would blow the lid off for the world to realize that true change does not from telling each other what to do and what not to do. But it is to allow people to come to the understanding on their own by feeling a common truth equally within each and every one of us. This process is self-empowerment as no one can make this choice but ourselves and when we make it, we bear the responsibility to it.

  61. If only we would stop, stand back and see the truth of our life, understand the many beautiful things that have taken place, the self loving choices we have made, then surely we would start to appreciate that who and where we are at today is a miracle in itself compared to the route our life was previously destined to take. For me I can only say that meeting Serge Benhayon and attending Universal Medicine events was a huge turning point in my life. The more I appreciate the beautiful teachings Serge has given us, how could I not see the miracles in my life for what they are?

  62. Beautiful to read how your choices have changed, when I gave up drinking alcohol I’m sure my friends and family thought it was a miracle, and indeed it was, not the actual choosing to stop drinking alcohol but the amazing difference I felt from simply choosing not to drink.

  63. It says a lot about society when it is a miracle to be and express love. It should be something that is normal considering we are all made of it and come from it.

  64. We can be walking miracles by saying NO to everything in this that is not true and equal to the love we are. In that movement, we can inspire others to move towards truth too and away from the lies and distractions that this world currently runs in – this is miraculous.

    1. Saying no to what is not true is saying yes to all that is. It is our only way forth out of this mess.

  65. It’s so true Anne. We can sabotage ourselves and our potential simply by undermining the quality of the details in our everyday life and how much we actually value caring for ourselves.

  66. Honesty in relationships is an essential ingredient to support evolution and while sometimes I may not appreciate it at the time usually it is not long before I realise what I have been offered. At the moment being the only student of Universal Medicine in my family there has been in the past a tendency to belittle others and not listen to them thinking I knew best. Thank God this arrogant behaviour I am observing and feeling myself as an equal while doing my best to take responsibility for the reflection that is in front of me – it is impossible to cast the blame on another.

  67. These are miracles Anne, even just one of those changes would warrant most feeling delighted with themselves and as though it was quite a ‘life achievement’! But to marry all those changes IS truly amazing… and can only occur if we have been able to truly heal , thus restoring the simplicity and beauty of who we are in our essence. Thanks for sharing the details of the living example you so clearly are of the inspiration offered through Serge Benhayon and the potential to heal through what Universal Medicine presents.

  68. I loved re-visiting this ‘miracle of a blog’ again Anne. It is deeply inspiring and filled with loving wisdom bringing us all the opportunity to return home to the truth of love again, through self-care and nurturing, thanks to the presentations by Serge Benhayon.
    “I have come to understand that I cannot care for another until I learn to truly care for myself. And, I am putting this into practice, for myself, my family and for everyone”.

  69. This is so beautiful Anne. It really is this simple. So many of us struggle through life with very little energy, trying to lose weight, dealing with hangovers! All it takes is for us to stop and listen to what our body truly needs, and then act on that. I love how you claim it.

  70. And it’s beautiful how all the Students of The Livingness start to be an inspiration for many others to change their lives and make more self-loving choices, amazing miracles all over the world.

  71. Every choice matters and your blog Anne really highlights this. Very much to appreciate. Anyone would see this as a miracle, however the most extraordinary thing here is that the miracle has come from you, no-one else. Yes there has been assistance and others to be inspired by, but the truth is we can be our own miracles if we so choose.

    1. Yes true, each step has to be walked, there is no saviour coming our way that will cast a magic spell. It takes love and the willingness to be honest with ourselves and make those changes in our lives.

  72. What true miracles you have presented here Anne, thank you for sharing your livingness with us;
    “I have been shown a loving way of life, by someone who lives it himself. Serge shares this way with his family, who also live it, and they share it with others.”

  73. I remember seeing a book once called a Course in Miracles, I don’t think I read it but I always loved the word miracle, could it just the magic of everyday extraordinarily ordinary transformation?

  74. Although all that you describe is quite simple, they are all miracles as it can be so easy to be stuck in a certain way but to make true changes and heal the patterns that led to the behaviours to then have the freedom to make different choices is a miracle.

  75. What you describe here Anne, as a result of living The Way of the Livingness, are the real miracles in life which brings us back to live the glorious people we deserve to be.

  76. Big changes begin with small steps and when these steps are made in and with the love we are, miracles are aplenty. Case in point Anne Malatt!

  77. What is remarkable to me, is how once these amazing miracles take place, there is a tendency for our body to adjust, as if to say ‘oh yes, it should have always been this way’. And it’s correct – deep within we all know true health and harmony and that this is our real ‘normal’. So it’s vital for us to take a moment to celebrate each and every step, as you do here Anne, for we are returning to our natural state. What a true homecoming.

    1. We are each walking miracles when we give up the game of playing less than the full majesty we are.

  78. Thank you for this deep and loving sharing Anne. For so long we have been searching for True love , and I know for me the only place I have witnessed this is in the Presentations of ‘Serge Benhayon his family and the Universal Medicine Practitioners.

  79. “I have been shown a loving way of life, by someone who lives it himself. Serge shares this way with his family, who also live it, and they share it with others.” Having someone who is a true reflection of how to live a loving life is what makes a huge difference. We need to see true love in action

  80. We are a miracle from Day 1. Presently the purpose of some of our lives is to return to this knowing, for most of the world it is to run away or ignore this knowing. But the truth is, we will truly live when from Day 1 we simply be this miracle, and this miracle begins with feeling the love that we are, irrefutable, from within. Miracles are simply living what has always been natural, but we are now returning to once again with deep joy.

  81. The Universal Medicine community contains hundreds of people who, like you and me Anne, have made similarly miraculous changes to their lives. This is a group that needs to be studied. Well actually, it might not even require that, as Universal Medicine’s teachings are open to anyone with an interest, meaning one can actually experiment for themselves as to the efficacy of those presentations.

  82. Miracles are often presented as something that come out of the blue, with no apparent lead up to them but what you show to me here Anne is how the way we live truly can bring about miracles, from the inside out and not from some random event or special blessing.

  83. Appreciating our choices and our life experiences allows us to see just how amazing we are and how far we have come. Appreciation is a confirmation of the divine within us all and that is much to celebrate everyday.

  84. It’s so true , alcohol or anything we use as a “treat ” or to give ourselves relief is a substitute for caring for ourselves. As I care for myself more I do not feel the need to seek relief or entertainment. Like you Anne my weight is now true and thus more stable . I sleep better waking early and refreshed. There is so much that changes for us when we begin to truly care for ourselves.

  85. I do not want to reduce your miracles, but have to say: it was and is the same for me. These words could be mine. So I join you in your miracles…and like to see that thess miracles become our ‘normal’. They should and can be.

  86. And what’s even more miraculous is that you are not the only one experiencing these changes. There are thousands of examples of people’s lives that have been inspired by Serge Benhayon and The Way of the Livingness, and for good reason.

  87. Bravo Anne. Each of the points you make here is a true miracle. The way you have been supported to make these choices is a miracle too and a beautiful example of the way that we can reflect the truth to each other.

  88. Anne these are indeed true miracles, they are life changing and yet they are not isolated for I have had many of these experiences and so have many that I know who choose to be students of The Way of The Livingness. For me it confirms that what is a miracle is something that is available for us all.

  89. Your commitment to your true way of being through a change in your movements, consistently building and redefining your steps to your loving expression. Truly inspiring thank you Anne.

  90. Anne you are a living miracle, this is a beautiful example of the power of love that supports us to truly heal any unwanted patterns or behaviours that are holding us back in anyway.

  91. What I get from all that you have shared here Anne, is that when we re-introduce love into our lives, through self-love and caring for our bodies, miracles are bound to happen. For love is the greatest healer of all time. It is through love that we can heal what is not loving, and as we let go of abusive behaviours our lives are transformed, filled instead with more love, more of who we are, returning us to live life in a far more natural and Soulful way. You are a living miracle, a living testimony of what is possible when the true power of love is embraced which is very deeply inspiring.

  92. ‘I love my days now and enjoy the way I feel at the end of my day, most days, and now I don’t need a reward to feel good.’ Amazing! I have a habit of wanting to reward myself when I do something ‘good’ for myself or even if it’s just something ‘good’ in general. It’s a tough one to let go of because it means accepting that I am enough plain and simple.

  93. What a beautiful way to look over your past life and appreciate yourself for taking responsibility for your choices and choosing to now live with true love for yourself bringing so many miracles of healing to your life, thank you Anne. There are so many of us who are walking miracles today due to accepting the truth of the Ageless Wisdom brought through to us by Serge Benhayon.

  94. In order to truly make change in our life, it is not enough to look at diet, and sleep. The massive failure rate of people who attempt to go on diets to lose weight stands testament to that. What is truly needed to make such long lasting change is a commitment to rhythm. Life is about rhythm, and consistency of rhythm. And what is rhthym? Put simply, it is the quality of your movements, which in turn affects your mood, thoughts, and vitality. Move abruptly, or in anger, or harshly, or in disrespect to your body, and you will find it has an affect on your sleep diet, etc. Most of us are not aware of the connection between movement, and our moods, because have become so disconnected from our body in terms of awareness. We do not take any note of how we simply get from a to b, and part of this is because we have been fooled into thinking that life and making change in our life is a mere matter of willpower, of mind over matter, that it is our mind that controls our emotional state of being etc.

  95. “I now have all the energy I need. It is only a breath away.”

    We spend lifetimes lost in the seemingly endless web of complication we weave for ourselves oblivious to the truth that simplicity is only a breath away. A part of us know this but is not ready to choose it for the simple fact that we have invested so much in the mess, where do we stand without it? There comes a time for us all when our exhaustion gets too much and we let down this wall of chosen ignorance to feel the truth of what is behind it. Learning to let go of the reins we use to steer us on a certain course can be terrifying at first because it asks us to surrender to something far greater than our self and trust we are held in this love, no matter our errant ways or the movements we make to not feel the majesty of this. When we begin to align to what we are truly designed to align to, we change the whole geometry we have moved in and instead of creating angles that constrict and confine us, we begin to move in and with the universal order that we belong to. Naturally this brings with it an ease and a harmony that was not previously felt when choosing to move with the mess that we were the creators of. Releasing ourselves of this binding means we are free to breathe our own breath once again. This is what it means to truly live. This is the Livingness.

  96. ‘We are as honest as we can be with each other at all times, and whatever is happening between us, we deal with problems by remembering first and foremost that we love each other.’ This is only doable when you start living the fact that love comes from you being love and not from a place of need or recognition. The Way of The Livingness connects us to this love we are on the inside and how wonderful when we let this love out and let love in.

  97. If anyone thought this was the results of being in a cult, I would say – whether it is a cult or not, I am certainly joining because with such a rich way of living like that it is far far better, truer and enriching than just about anything else out there in society. There is no way a cult by its current known definition and based on historical experiences, would ever produce people living such richness as this.

  98. A sadness was felt in me that what should be a given of everyday life is now counted as a miracle. As sad as this is, this is the truth, and I’m grateful for being shown many miracles of true love and care that lay a path for many to walk.

  99. It is beautiful where we can come to when we choose to commit to living lovingly with the recovered wisdom that always has been inside us.

  100. This is indeed a course in miracles Anne. Hear, hear! Well said. I for one can relate and vouch that this is a course in miracles worth embarking on.

  101. This way of living could be our normal. Yet we have deviated so far from this normal that these are now considered miracles. And they are because of the intensity of daily life that we navigate. Thank you Anne, I’m sure because you live these miracles you have inspired many others to be their own miracle.

  102. This is so beautiful to read Anne and is testimony not only to Serge Benhayon, but to you too; yes you are a living miracle, now one of many who, inspired by the living way of Serge, have made the choice to change the way they are living their own lives. I see these miracles every day, and the ripples that flow on out from them to others.

  103. Why of course Universal Medicine is ‘A Course In Miracles’ – this is a classic example of my knowing something inside and yet not taking the time to stop and truly appreciate this incredibly obvious fact.

  104. Love it Anne a great article on the miracles that can happen when we choose to bring self love and self care into our lives along with the reflection of the life of love lived by Serge Benhayon and the Way of The Livingness teachings that he offers to us all.

  105. The miracle for me is that this way of living and loving has been in my body all along but I have not chosen to tap into it – in fact I did not know it was there to be tapped into! Like you Anne, until I met Serge Benhayon and heard his presentations I was not aware of what is possible and now I am deeply appreciative of what he has brought through for us all.

  106. I can relate to this myself, my life has altered so deeply, I feel so good so often, but there were years when I did not. Low energy level, stress, exhaustion, getting by, surviving was normal life and I know it still is for many people I know around me. A friend said recently she felt like she was on a hamster wheel, in society it is a miracle to not feel like that. Feeling vital, energised, joyful consistently is rare and so, a miracle. I am also learning that circles of the magical godly nature are there all the time also, to observe, to appreciate and enjoy, I am feeling blessed and this blessing has been through an openness to feel from the inside out, from my inner heart.

  107. All these changes you have made Anne are miracles in themselves and as you state, taken altogether they are amazing. Then if you take all the amazing changes experienced and shared with all students with Universal Medicine, you get a phenomenon that in this day and age very much worth celebrating but more than that, worth studying and using as a model for health care and well-being in the world.

  108. Reading about how you treated alcohol like it was your friend, and the way you described how it was ‘there for you’ so to speak, felt exactly the same as how sweet things are for me. I’m in a bit of a sweet phase at the moment, which is a habit I thought I had kicked to the curb, but alas, when big changes occur in my life, I often go for the sugar to wrap me up and keep me warm and help me avoid stepping up to the plate. The feeling of looking forward to that biscuit, that reward, is so intense. I find myself rushing through my ‘healthy’ meal so that I can have my treat at the end. It’s so funny and so crazy at the same time, all to avoid just being with me.

  109. Great article Anne! This is such a great example of what living truth looks like. How many mircales can one experience in life? You’ve definitely hit a few! The turn around is absolutely huge. To feel love for yourself after years of abusing yourself and allowing yourself to be abused is as you very clearly point out, a miracle. What an inspiration!

  110. Anne,
    Thank you, whilst reading your article, I reflected on my own life and the miracles that I have experienced. Like you no one has ever been able to tell me what to do. When I felt the love and absolute truth that Serge Benhayon lives naturally, I knew that this too is my natural way. A way of being that I embrace more every day.

  111. So many everyday miracles.The Way of the Livingness has a lot to answer for – in increased health and well being for so many students, which in turn affects everyone around them. What’s not to like?

  112. When reading your words it becomes so clear that life is in fact medicine as Serge Benhayon presents. The way we live our life affects us greatly in our well-being and how simple it is then to turn around our state of health and vitality.

  113. ‘Alcohol was my ‘friend’. It was a treat at the end of a long hard day in a long hard life. It picked me up, it sweetened me, it was a substitute for caring for myself. It was my only way of giving myself permission to stop and sit.’ Very accurate description Anne of why I used alcohol too and very likely a lot of others do. How far from the truth, it is the absolute opposite of caring for oneself, it is abusive and my body was telling this loud and clear, I started to listen when I became a student of the Way of The Livingness.

  114. This is definitely miraculous Anne, especially as any one of the unloving ways you lived results in a lesser quality of life and adds to the already overburdened health system. Whereas you not only healed one, with the choices you made, but all of them, to reveal a true joyful and simple way to live.

  115. The Way of The Livingness is living impulsed form our inner most and brings us the miracles in life you describe here Anne. So simple and profound and we all have that same impulse in us and it is up to each of us to choose to live this life of miracles or not.

  116. Anne you are a living testimonial that it is possible to change and that miracles can happen in every moment as long as we choose to re-connect to our inner heart.

  117. The enormity of what is possible when we connect to what lies within and are guided by our body to live what is true for us, is beyond incredible.

  118. This is a list of miracles for sure. I have experienced quite a few for myself too with hearftfelt thanks to Serge Benhayon for his constant inspiration.

  119. Anne you are an inspiration and a living miracle. This is the Way of the Livingness… living in such a way that you feel connected with who you are and deeply love and care for yourself in every way.
    Living like this is, for all of us, our natural state of being.

  120. Each one of these points is a miracle. How many people grapple with alcohol their entire life? Or spend years battling their weight? They are all miracles that everyone is capable of. We are the masters of our life and when we take responsibility and combine it with love, miracles happen.

  121. Nothing changes until we LIVE the changes we want to see or want to be. It takes our commitment, not from a strong willpower but from a truly caring and loving way with ourselves first and foremost; becoming more aware and connected to our innermost.

  122. Nothing changes unless we LIVE the change we want to see or want to be. It takes our commitment, not from a strong willpower but from a truly caring and loving way with ourselves first and foremost; becoming more aware and connected to our innermost.

  123. This is so awesome, Anne. It has been your choice to make these changes and they have come from a place of self love. Thank you for sharing.

  124. Many people struggle with dieting and weight loss because they do not work but from reading your blog Anne, you didn’t need to diet to lose weight, you simply returned to your natural body weight effortlessly with loving choices, trusting and listening to your body as to what food to eat and when to rest. Choosing to care and love your body and to no longer be addicted to alcohol and coffee is a miracle in this day and age. As far as I know nearly everybody I come across is addicted to one or both of them. It really shows that our choices affect our body, our sleep, how we function through our day in everyway. Your choice to re-connect to yourself and live The Way of The Livingness is deeply inspiring and shows how important it is to live in a loving way.

  125. It’s amazing what the possibilities inspiration can bring – how extraordinary if you really consider it that one man living his truth can send out a ripple so big that it inspires hundreds and hundreds of other people to make their lives really count too.

  126. When we choose to live The Way of The Livingness miracles and the magic of God are everywhere and the miracle is there is no magic potion just a deeply loving choice to be and live who we naturally are.

  127. All the things you have mentioned Anne also applied to me and also add a few more, It’s hard to imagine now that I lived that way in such disregard thinking that it was normal and that now I even sleep better and sounder than a baby. The changes I have made in my life are an absolute miracle as well, I’ve said it before and this won’t be the last time I say it either, I certainly would not like to see myself now if I hadn’t met Serge Benhayon all those years ago.

  128. Same for me Elizabeth, ‘Miracles certainly do happen’ and I have come to appreciate this more and more.

  129. I too used to stay up late because I felt my day was not enough so I would want to treat myself to watching a movie or sitting in front of the TV thinking that was a way to wind down and relax. In truth this was not relaxing or supporting me. I now do not do this anymore since I started to treat myself differently, with more self-love and self-care I no longer feel the need to distract myself or feel I need a treat because I now feel that every part of my day is already a treat when I connect to myself and to what I do throughout my day.

  130. ‘Miracles certainly do happen both during and after Universal Medicine courses.’ Absolutely Elizabeth, miracles without doubt happen from Universal Medicine’s teachings every single day.

  131. That’s very cool Jill. I too have made some huge changes since being inspired by another way to live. All a work in progress and whilst I default to some old patterns still I’m far quicker at recognising them and then giving myself an opportunity to choose differently. My awareness has increases 10 fold.

  132. A serious living miracle Anne. Those changes are absolutely massive. AND what I love most is that I’m not feeling that hyped up motivational type high that lasts all of 10 minutes. Everything you share here feels sustainable, but with a bit of work of course. We all spend most of our lives in ‘struggle’ mode so when and if we choose another way, naturally it takes time to re-learn how to be simple about things.

  133. I agree Anne you are a living miracle – The Way of the Livingness is a beautiful religion supporting thousands of people to experience true love and true brotherhood. Miracles are becoming quite a new ‘normal’ for hundreds of students who are discovering the joy of this true Religion.

  134. I love reading your blogs Anne, they go to show me how we may all think we are different but we are all very much more the same. Learning to love ourselves and know that we are worthy of love is such a worthwhile life lesson with a miracle ending. Just beautiful.

    1. I agree Amanda. Anne is awesome at writing in such a real and relatable way. We really do all think we have our own individual problems and can really get caught in our own ‘why me’ bubble. But the truth is, we all suffer the same ill condition – a lack of love and acceptance of who we naturally are. And Anne offers us the opportunity to see that there is in fact another choice waiting to be made.

  135. It’s lovely to read your appreciation of your process of change over time Anne. It would be impossible to know the impact that Serge Benhayon and his family have had on people all around the world but I believe I can safely say it would number many, many thousands. Their role modelling of living life with the utmost integrity, love and care is inspirational.

  136. It can seem and feel so natural to be at ease in the world, and in our body, that once discovered we can forget that we ever lived another way. What your words remind me Anne is its vital and part of life’s intrinsic beauty to appreciate and savour where we are today.

    1. Yes it does feel natural. It is amazing to remind each other of the beauty, magic and love that is all around us.

  137. So many things have changed for me since coming to Universal Medicine the main thing being is that now my life has real purpose.
    In 5 years since I first started attending Universal Medicine courses I personally have experienced many miracles, my relationships for one have changed completely. I no longer hold blame and have grown in my deep love for humanity.

  138. Thank you Anne for sharing your miracles, it seems that so many people experience miracles once they start listening to Universal Medicine presentations. I have been blown away by the changes I have seen people make. It is extremely obvious that if you want to be healthy, loving, sexy, joy-full and energetic then Universal Medicine is the way to go!
    For just a few of the many miracles http://www.universalmedicine.net/before–after.htmlday lives.

  139. You absolutely are a living miracle Anne. What you show us here is that this level of health, ease and vitality is our birth right and truly normal. We need not tolerate or endure any lack of Love in our life.

  140. Beautifully said Helen. It’s important and lovely to stop occasionally and reflect on and appreciate the changes that we’ve made in our lives. Appreciating the incremental steps along the way.

  141. Anne, I too am amazed at how I’ve been able to drop the coffee, chocolate, alcohol, dairy, gluten, sugar, etc., without the burden of willpower, by connecting back to me and being prepared to feel what these things do to my body and by dealing with the underlying hurts that prompted me to seek these substances to numb myself in the first place. I couldn’t have done any of this (and I tried) without the understanding gained from attending Universal Medicine events and listening to presentations by Serge Benhayon. Miracle is the appropriate word.

    1. Awesome Deborah, this just shows how powerful it is to connect to ourselves and listening to our body, feeling, trusting and knowing what is supportive for us and what is not by truly feeling into our every choice. Once we accept how amazing we are we naturally make more loving choices, effortlessly.

  142. ” I have come to understand that I cannot care for another until I learn to truly care for myself”, this was a great learning for me, as I used to try and take care of others before me, I hardly ever made time for myself, no wonder I was tired and exhausted.

  143. I agree Davidsonsamantha, and what is so awesome is that this choice is always our. No one can force you to take responsibility for your life, this choice can only be made by yourself. That’s why the power of reflection from others living this loving way inspires us to know we can also do the same and choose this loving way.

  144. Wow Anne awesome blog. I’ve read this before but reading it again was amazing. My life too has changed dramatically since choosing to live The Way of The Livingness. I feel the same as you. I feel a deep appreciation for the loving support from people who have chosen this way of living too and who have inspired me along the way.

  145. This is a great reminder of how far we have come. It is easy some days to forget how hardened and numb we were and how we were just getting through life. Now life is so different and the way I feel about so many things is joyful instead of anxious. This way was always available, I was just unaware. These days I feel very present and alive.

  146. Hi Anne
    Just love this blog, it’s so claiming of the love that you are living now, the appreciation for yourself and Serge Benhayon/Universal Medicine, it certainly does feel miraculous from what we knew ourselves to be before we began making those loving choices.”…today, I am amazing, and I feel it and I know it. I am a living miracle.” Love these words, thank you for sharing.

  147. Lovely to read Anne, as it is important to appreciate the facts in life that are miraculous and to name it as such and to not take it as normal albeit it is our natural and in fact ‘normal’ state of being. I know this too and for me the appreciation of these facts is something I have to learn. Compared to where I come from I do have a miraculous life and those miracles happen every day if I allow to live the love I cary that strongly in me. When I got in touch with Serge Benhayon somewhere in 2006, there was that a strong recognition in me with what he is presenting that the inner spark that lingering inside me reignited without any doubt because I know from deep inside that this is how live has to be lived and that it is a matter of choice to live this or not.

  148. I totally agree Anne. Courses with Universal Medicine have definitely ‘been a course in miracles’ for so many people already and quite obviously to me and will also be for so many more yet to come.

  149. You are turning coal into diamonds and each diamond is a miracle. By choosing to take of yourself and loving yourself you have gained the ability to turn your life around. We are all capable of doing it.

  150. By the making personally responsible decisions, the limit to our personally growth seems limitless if not very very vast.

  151. What a beautiful blog Anne, and a great transformation to the ways you use to live. How simple it is to bring it back to who we truly are by making simple and loving choices for the self and taking time to self care. Being inspired by the reflection of others who are also Iiving this simple way.

  152. This is beautiful Anne and a true appreciation of how we can transform ourselves back to a true state of being rather than living thinking we are what we have loaded ourselves down with over the years. Through understanding Universal Medicine and the presentations by Serge Benhayon it is possible to feel the truth of who we are once more and from there see what we have taken on that is not truly us. This allows us the freedom of the choice to let it go.. and from there miracles happen.

    1. To know that we can transform our lives is the most liberating feeling ever, but so many never allow themselves to experience that feeling, instead choosing to stay stuck in the self made groove that they think is the only way life can be. Through the amazing presentations of Serge Benhayon many many people are discovering that they can actually lift themselves out of that groove, and with commitment to learning to love themselves, and bringing consistency to that commitment, as you say Annie, “miracles happen”.

  153. The simplicity of this brilliant blog reflects how living in and with simplicity can return us to a life of true vitality – through making choices for ourselves based on the innate wisdom of the body that comes from our innermost. It is that simple, just that our free will can and does get in the way. But with gentle understanding rather than self-imposed guilt trips (because none of us are perfect), over time we can build a momentum of change that becomes a way of life, the Way of the Livingness. It is, simply, all about choices.

  154. ” … having lived under constant (self-induced) stress … ”
    I’m becoming more and more aware that stress I may feel is actually something a part of me is generating … for example, when getting back to work after 3 weeks holiday and seeing how much there needed to be caught up on and done, I could have moved into a self-induced overwhelm and stress, but instead chose to keep it in perspective and kept coming back to noticing my breath and being aware of and letting go of any tensions in my body. This was a newer approach for me and one that I appreciated very much! It made it a vastly pleasant and positive difference to the whole experience.

  155. ” … it was a substitute for caring for myself.”
    Really great that you’re ‘calling out’ one of the real reasons for having a glass of wine; useful for me because I now see I do the same with some foods but no longer wish to do so. Thank you for outing something murky that I was having trouble getting to in myself 🙂

  156. Love this beautiful confirmation of the amazing transformation in your life ‘today, I am amazing, and I feel it and I know it. I am a living miracle.’ Thank you for sharing Anne.

  157. Yes Anne, you are a ‘living miracle’ – these changes you have made to your life are truly amazing. Most people would struggle with changing 1 or 2 of these things in their lives, this shows that what Universal Medicine presents truly works. Such a beautiful sharing and how deeply inspiring you are to everyone around you.

  158. Its interesting the world ‘miracle,’ often it is only used to describe times in the distant history and not something relevant today. Yet what you have described here is a miracle to have people transform long held patterns and no longer suffer from these ill conditions is a miracle and should be celebrated.

  159. Anne I too have experienced miracles happening in my life. One so simple and yet for so long missing from my life was smiling. I even find myself smiling when I am alone, for no reason other than being alive and knowing that I contribute to the world in my own way with my own expression.

  160. Such a powerful sharing Anne. The way you have claimed who you are, the love you hold for yourself as you choose to live life in full, rather than just getting though each day is so inspiring. ‘I have re-connected to myself, and made this connection my way of life.’ – it is so empowering when we realise that we can choose the quality in which we live. The Way of The Livingness is indeed the religion of the Soul, through which we are inspired to learn to live all that we are, Heaven on earth. You are an amazing living miracle Anne as you reflect this in your every way.

  161. I agree Joseph, appreciation is most assuredly the nourishment that sustains love and promotes miracles. Anne, through your expression……”Every one of these is a miracle. Together, they are amazing. And today, I am amazing, and I feel it and I know it. I am a living miracle.”….I reflect on, appreciate and re-experience the miracles and wonder of my own life thanks to Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine. Thank you.

  162. These are miracles Anne, no question, just look at how the world is and all the abuse, weight and health problems, alcoholism, drug use, etc. it is easy to see how many people struggle with making changes to be rid of these addictions, so to create the life you have from what is was, is nothing less than a miracle – all of which happpened without trying to give up any particular addiction. Simples.

  163. What you have done is so amazing, Anne! I can feel how deeply your appreciation for your changes is and that really inspires me to appreciate my own changes – which are also huge – much more. We often tend to look at things we have not reached yet but don’t focus on everything we have already changed. Seeing it in your blog in a written form feels just amazing and yes – The Way of the Livingness is a course in miracles! For everyone.

  164. It is most certainly a miracle Anne and one I share with you minus the insomniac, but I know so many people who suffer from this and do so all they lives, so it is miraculous to no longer have that symptom. And they are all symptoms of living disconnected to the innate wisdom and divinity within, so simple and so deeply sad that we live removed from this as a humanity. Thank god for Serge Benhayon as he inspires us to reconnect and live a life far greater than previously imagined possible.

  165. I too am one of the many that have experienced the same miracle as you Anne. I must have dis liked myself very much to abuse this wonderful body of mine the way I used to. I have to be for ever on my toes not to let any of that abuse back in whenn old feelings sneak back in. Like you have I have lost weight without dieting, no longer drink alcohol etc. One thing I used to always do on the way home from work was to stop at a service station and buy a cheese pasty, a mars bar and a coke to give me the artificial energy so I could be the artificial me while downing numerous pints of beer and talking nonsense with others doing exactly the same. Its a miracle my body put up with that until I fortunately found the miracle of Universal Medicine.

  166. A wonderful testimony of what is possible, when somebody like you Anne starts to take responsibility for their own choices. Thanks for your powerful blog.

  167. In such appreciation of you and the loving choices you have been inspired to make, this was so beautiful to read. The Way of the Livingness is an undeniable blessing to all who choose to embrace and live the wisdom that is offered and as all these blogs all show…. the miracles are endless.

  168. This blog is so beautifully, clearly and simply expressed Anne, whilst at the same time conveying a very powerful and inspirational message.
    I love what you have written about your relationship; these are very wise words for us all, thank you;
    “I now care for myself enough to have a relationship in which anything less than love is not tolerated. If either one of us brings less than love, in our words, behaviour or being, we say so, as lovingly as we can, to bring awareness to them and to help each other return to love. We are as honest as we can be with each other at all times, and whatever is happening between us, we deal with problems by remembering first and foremost that we love each other”.

  169. Beautifully expressed Anne, The Way of the Livingness supported me to experience miracles in my own life as well. It is truly amazing that hundreds of students have turned their lives around and now enjoy miracles everyday – it has become the new ‘normal’ and the only true way.

  170. This is the way of the Livingness. Simple. Miraculous and blows out of the water what is normal. Awesome Blog Anne! I too have been through the same process of miracles that you describe as has many hundreds of people.

    1. So true Vanessa.
      What is normal?
      How many people truly say and feel for themselves what Anne shares?

      ” I Like myself, I care about myself and on most days I even Love myself”?

      That should be normal.

  171. Anne it is so plain to see as you have boldly expressed ☺ how complicated we can make life. There is nothing better than loving yourself as these everyday miracles confirm that the choices you have made are truly amazing as you have returned to you. I love this as you say ‘I now have all the energy I need. It is only a breath away’ This is the Way of the Livingness.

  172. So many miracles. Id like everyone to be aware of this one,’ I don’t go looking for stress or excitement to make me feel alive or to distract me from my other feelings, because I feel great and have no need for anything outside me’. I say this because so many of us are unaware that the stresses that we hate and that rule us, we in fact choose. I find myself forgetting it at times also. Knowing that we chose the stress means that we can choose otherwise, and that brings so much freedom.

    1. Thanks for this reminder Catherine because it can still trip me up: ‘Knowing that we chose the stress means that we can choose otherwise, and that brings so much freedom’.

  173. Thank you Anne for sharing your own ‘case study’ in how you are defying the odds of a very ill society. These things are miracles because of the dire straits we are in. You have made the choices to heal these things, and that is a constant choice ongoing. Your commitment to this should so be appreciated, as you are such a beautiful reflection for all.

  174. Anne, so simply put and so deeply experienced. A beautiful path to re-connecting to all of who you truly are. Unfolding miracles that have simply happened by feeling all that Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine have offered and living what felt true for you. Thanks for sharing.

  175. Thank you Anne this is so beautiful to share and a real inspiration to live to. The very real amount of love in your life can be felt and treasured and its simplicity shared that can be attained by anyone living this way. I love your course in miracles and see many in my own life and that in others also. The Way of the Livingness reflected to us by Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine is the only way forward for us all being the real love we are and truly living this .

  176. Thank you Anne. Your sharing has offered me a moment to stop and appreciate myself and my own miracles in my life, too. The life feels simpler and there’s been constant unfolding and refining my ‘normal’ I forget how awesome it actually is. What is normal for me now, is so very far away from what it used to be before I encountered Universal Medicine.

  177. “I have been reminded that this way is found inside me, by listening to my innermost voice, the living wisdom of my body.” Thank you for sharing how you worked miracles in your life Anne, This sentence spoke to me today, to stop and feel and listen to our innermost voice when in a difficult situation rather than look for distraction or solutions.

  178. Awesome Anne. I never thought I would feel well, joyful, content ever again without the help of alcohol to relax, coffee to get me going, sugar to reward myself and the list goes on. Now I feel joyful most of the time, positive, happy and calm. It is amazing as I had given up, I wasn’t even searching for answers but I got them anyway thanks to students of Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon and his family. And no rules or lecturing, just the inspiration of the Way of the LIVINGNESS. It’s such a blessing.

    1. It is brilliant to read on this blog how many people have found it so easy to give up these addictive substances from connecting back to who we are, by taking responsibility for our choices and by learning to self-care, self-nurture and self-love. This is something many people are yet not embracing but it helps solve so many issues we struggle with everyday. Something very simple yet powerful are our choices, to align to love, or not.

  179. How beautiful Anne reading your blog, and what a lovely reminder of how looking after ourselves really is the first step to living!

  180. Wunderbare Anne – I love miracles and it was a joy to read all you have had and I have to admit I also had miracles . . . so it is good to share them with the world like you do. So here world it is the time for miracles be inspired!

  181. Yes, a course in miracles indeed. Not the kind of fairy tales but the blessing that confirms the power of our own choice.

    1. No Fairy Tales needed!
      Just a simple, obvious, powerful and yet deep deeply beautiful way of being.
      Awesome!.

      1. Completely opposite to fairy tales I agree. Anne’s blog is inspiring, powerful and is a great example of how powerful we are when we take responsibility for our every choice.

  182. You and your choices reflect the love that you are Anne and this is a miracle we can all share in and choose for ourselves. Beautifully confirming!

  183. Thankyou Anne. Miracles and constellations like those are so special and amazing to let be.

  184. Anne thank you for sharing your miracles, it just shows when we take care of ourselves that miracles start happening, as our relationship with self is constantly evolving.

  185. ‘I now have all the energy I need. It is only a breath away.’
    I love this blog Anne because I can FEEL your re-turn to you. You are inspirational and yes …
    This is the Way of the Livingness. ✨✨

    1. I love this line too you’ve highlighted Kathrynfortuna. It really shows that every breath is our choice to be connected to who we are, or not. So, so empowering.

  186. Dear Anne, thank you, is this your before and after? I’d love to see some pictures!
    Incredible all that you have said, and just to quote “we deal with problems by remembering first and foremost that we love each other.” …reminding yourself that it’s not about fighting in this world (although it has falsely become ‘accepted’ in relationships and society), but instead that you love people.

  187. Anne I so enjoyed reading your blog. I can feel your commitment and journey back to a life that is full of miracles. There is nothing better than really loving yourself and the forever evolving relationship we have with ourselves.

  188. I really enjoyed the simplicity and strength in which you wrote and shared your miracles Anne. Thank you.

    1. I know right!
      I like myself, I care about myself, and on most days I even Love myself.
      So Strong and yet so powerful. How many people can truly say that?

      1. So good!! These days I can say I like myself and that is a HUGE step from where I’ve come from, that is for sure. The love can only grow if I allow it to.

    2. Me too Sarahflenley. This is what I love reading about, true miracles that we can relate to. The comments are also full of miracles for us to appreciate and to be inspired.

  189. Very inspiring blog Anne Malatt. Any of those changes on your list would be amazing on their own but the full list is really incredible when you think about it. And all done as you say very simply and humbly without any fancy gimmicks or potions or quick fixes but your own commitment and dedication to you backed up by tremendous support, consistency and inspiration from Serge Benhayon and his family.

  190. Anne, your story is a miracle and yet so spectacularly unspectacular in itself. There is so much simplicity in the miracle of connecting back to ourselves and so much love that it does just feel natural and not spectacular at all – though it is exactly that.

  191. All these changes your describe in your life Anne are indeed little miracles, for many stopping drinking, managing stress, stronger relationships, looking after ourselves better are aspirations but ones that are hard to attain. That you have achieved so many little miracles is a testament to the power and wisdom that we all have that Universal Medicine helps us to access.

  192. absolutely Anne, they are each a miracle of their own and for many who have given up on feeling that they too can turn around their life these real life stories of people changing their lives in such a huge way will be very inspiring. I know I once gave up on myself and life but after many miracles of my own I know for sure that anything is possible if we choose to put in the work and learn to love ourselves once again.

  193. absolutely Anne, they are each a miracle of their own and for many who have given up on feeling that they too can turn around their life these real life stories of people changing their lives in such a huge way will be very inspiring. I know I once gave up on myself and life but after many miracles of my own I know for sure that anything is possible if we choose to put in the work and learn to love ourselves once again.

  194. Anne, this is a lovely sharing and I can feel the love for yourself in it which feels amazing. You are amazing.

  195. Wow Anne, when you consider how many people are affected by stress, insomnia, dysfunctional relationships, commitment, addictive behaviours, and lack of love for themselves, your transformation is truly a miracle, and one that needs to be broadcast for all to hear. It almost sounds to good to be true, but in fact it is true when there has been a commitment and loving dedication to return to love. The teachings of Universal Medicine offers such inspiration as well as practical tools for making these changes.

  196. I love that you see the miracles in your life as the everyday simple changes that we make. To see these changes as miracles is so encouraging and keeps us observing and appreciating our efforts no matter how small. Thank you Anne.

  197. I love this celebration of miracles, true miracles that have occurred through you making a choice to care for yourself. It is inspirational, very tangible and very accessible. Thank you for sharing.

  198. Anne, you are a walking beauty! Where is a picture of your sexy, miraculous feeling body as part of this blog?!!
    I agree with everything you have said it’s true for me too. It is very miraculous where I came from AND in a very short time.
    What I appreciate a lot is sleeping deeply every night and falling asleep quickly. Waking up in Heaven with me..

  199. Beautiful Anne, a gorgeous account of what the Way of the Livingness brings — miracles to every aspect of our life, no stone unturned. Every single one of us can live extraordinary lives and feel amazing every day being connected to the inner warmth we have within. This is what The Way of the Livingness offers us all.

  200. I really loved your blog Anne. Beautiful how your life is now, and how available this is to everyone. Gorgeous how you and your husband support one another to be loving. Your life feels very simple and still.

  201. Well said Anne, these are the things that ARE miracles. We might be all totally looking in the wrong direction but aren’t the changes Anne describes here all real miracles? I say so!

  202. The transformations you are describing here Anne are so simple yet so profound. The way I see it, a miracle is a moment of grace afforded to us when we are caught in a momentum that is not truly supportive. And in this moment, if we choose to surrender our ‘fight’, we naturally and gracefully return to a state of harmony that is our natural living way. Thank-you for being one such example of the miracle of us – the miracle of love.

  203. It’s a great reminder Anne that these things are indeed miracles. Not needing coffee when one could not get through a morning without it is a miracle. As is not being constantly anxious with no awareness that one was indeed anxious. These miracles are possible. It is also a great reminder that we are capable of so many more miracles and that where we are now is not where we will always be if we keep up the miracles.

  204. It is so lovely to read your story. It sounds amazing to have turned your life around so beautifully and an inspiration for anyone who reads this. Thank you.

  205. I love that Anne, that you’ve made your connection to you your way of life – that is just beautiful.

    1. I love what you highlight here Monica2, that it is Anne’s way of life, no one else’s. I find the same through the reflection of Serge and the students of The Way of the Livingness i m finding myself and my way..instead of following a path of another. Like Anne said we have never been told what to do and the inspiration has come from those who live their path without holding back.

  206. Discovering how to live a truly joyful, healthy, energised and loving life in our natural body weight and shape is something that we all deserve. Being able to commit to healthy and self caring choices that develop this way of life is a miracle, as the increasing rates of illness and disease and mental health issues associated with unhealthy or poor lifestyle choices (food, lack of exercise and drug and alcohol abuse) are increasing rapidly in today’s day and age, showing that people are struggling to make the choices needed to develop the full and complete way of life they deserve.

  207. I agree, you are a living miracle Anne, formed by the Way of the Livingness, and continuing to be a miracle every day. Thank you for sharing your life here.

  208. Anne, I so agree – you are a miracle! And we are blessed to have you as an inspiration alongside Serge Benhayon and many others associated with Universal Medicine. It is the living of the natural self, no holes barred that is a miracle, especially in this world where it is not fostered, appreciated nor celebrated. So in essence, we can say that miracles are some of the most natural things that we have around us: ourselves!

  209. All these little changes are true miracles yet most would not consider them miracles. Shows us the true power each of us has when we truly make self-loving, self-caring and self-honouring choices.

  210. When you said ‘I like myself’ that was the best part. It’s not common and so refreshing and super lovely to hear. Seeming as though a miracle is something that rarely happens or ‘an extraordinary and welcome event that is not explicable by natural or scientific laws and is therefore attributed to a divine agency.’ Or even ‘a remarkable event or development that brings very welcome consequences’ (thanks google definitions). I’d say liking oneself is in the miracle category for today’s society.

  211. Beautiful Anne, it’s awesome to feel how you have stopped and looked at all the things that you appreciate in your life as a result of making different choices and how this has been inspired by Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine. A course of miracles for sure!

  212. Your story is indeed a miracle; the changes you have made have come from you and your connection to you and your body. Often we make changes that are imposed from the outside like a strict diet or exercise programme, these generally don’t seem to last long as they come from a outside picture of ideal of how we should be.

  213. ‘I have been reminded that this way is found inside me, by listening to my innermost voice, the living wisdom of my body’, such a simple statement Anne, yet if more people could be reminded of this truth they too could change their lives in miraculous ways. Thank you for showing the way. . .

  214. The way you have turned your life around is truly inspirational Anne. This is a testament to how The Way of the Livingness positively changes lives and of how Serge Benhayon is an inspiration to many who choose to live this way for themselves, simply by the way he lives and shares his lived experience. A way to re-connect to a love within and live the joy that there is to be naturally lived. I too am one of these many that have chosen this way. You are a living miracle indeed Anne and an inspiration, thank you for sharing your amazing transformation.

      1. So true Christoph.
        You just have to start! Start anywhere and it all comes together from that, as its needed, in its own time without stress or trying – just simply deepening each day and unfolding more and more. No Plan needed!

        Miraculous!

  215. One man helped all these changes to take place without anyone being told what, when and how, pretty cool I say. Imagine another 100 or so, very possible, look out world!

    1. One man has inspired many and those many go on to each inspire many. Each one of us has a huge ripple effect that can be contagious. Look out world indeed!

  216. Anne you are a miracle, as are all in the making. Beautiful blog, that’s very inspiring. Loving step by step miracle’s are made.

  217. While reading your article, Anne, I wondered what a miracle actually is. So I looked in the dictionary and this is what I found:
    -‘ an extraordinary and welcome event that is not explicable by natural or scientific laws and is therefore attributed to a divine agency’.

    Yours and many others (including mine) transformation from overweight addicts to healthy joyful members of society without dieting but by simply making more loving choices who are fully engaged in life.

    -‘ a remarkable event or development that brings very welcome consequences’

    Giving up smoking, drinking alcohol or coffee might not be considered a miracle as such. But if we look at how damaging it is to our body and our energetic state and the harm it causes others around us – quitting is definitely a miracle!

    -‘an exceptional product or achievement, or an outstanding example of something’

    Your change from being a ‘run-away’ relationship person to a loving committed partner is an outstanding example.(I may say that in my case not jumping into a relationship to fill my emptiness is exceptional.)
    So overall we are living a normal life full of everyday miracles-thank Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine for re-introducing The Way of Livingness.

  218. This is beautiful Anne and really is a miracle. Universal Medicine present a way of living that gives a wonderful opportunity to see there is a different way of living, where there is no need for outside stimulation, distractions, or dramas but a way that is our true essence of love, joy, harmony and equalness for all.

  219. How you have changed your life around is absolutely a true miracle and so many of us have transformed our lives similar to what you describe above, this is a testament to Serge Benhayon. He presents that there is another way to live. One that is loving, joyful, deeply fulfilling and fun and I am so deeply appreciative to this man as I now live this way.

  220. Anne this a a true testament for how you have changed your life with simple, practical steps for living a joyful, loving life. Inspiring, yes and deeply supportive for all. Thank you.

  221. I love the simplicity of what you have shared and at the same time a true miracle Anne and I am with you;
    ‘I have re-connected to myself, and made this connection my way of life.
    This way is the Way of the Livingness.’ Such a joy to live in this way!

  222. I absolutely love this Anne. It’s a real living contract of what truly loving ourselves really means. You are definitely a miracle in the full sense of the word.

  223. Thank you Ann. Your life is a living testimony to how we are truly meant to live.

  224. As I have met you and know you Anne, I can only say that you are an amazing, tender and very loving women. And the honest and open way in which you express yourself touches me, reminds me on focussing the amazing love I am – instead of what I haven’t sophisticated so far. Thank you 🙂

  225. Beautiful Anne. It reminds me how beautiful, and actually miraculous, the things we changed inspired by universal medicine is.

  226. Priceless gem of a sharing. Miraculous and so very lovely to read and feel the shift. Thank you Anne.

  227. A really impressive blog Anne. You have totally turned your life around with the help of the teachings of Serge Benhayon and The Way of The Livingness. You are inspirational!

  228. Any one of the miracles you mention are life changing all of them together are truly transformative – your story is inspiring.

  229. A great account – and oh, so simple and straightforward – of the everyday miracles that happen when we live, to the best of our ability and without the drive for perfection (= another filler for something missing inside) the Way of the Livingness and the blessings, ease and joy it brings.

  230. These are definitely miracles and they are very tangible. My life was, if I am honest, a complete mess. I would desperately try to get myself in a ‘better place’ but to no avail, nothing happened. Everything stayed the same. However, since meeting Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine, like you, a lot has changed and miracles have happened. I used to drink loads of alcohol, smoke, eat rubbish food etc, now through choice and inspired by the reflection Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine live and give, I no longer drink (which is massive in itself as I thought I would never be able to stop drinking), no longer smoke. In fact I feel more connected to me than I ever have before. There is still loads to learn, expand, change and evolve with; but yes really appreciating the miracles that happen in life : )

  231. What a transformation Anne. With the Way of the Livingness we all have the choice to experience the same miracles as you have. Beautifully expressed.

  232. Anne I love what you say about your relationship “I now care for myself enough to have a relationship in which anything less than love is not tolerated.” So often in a relationship we accept an unloving remark or gesture because it’s ok, we know that the person “loves” us and then a bit later we respond in a way that is less than love and over time a downward spiral occurs where we end up in a relationship without love and wonder how we got there. In my relationship I am trying to not accept anything less than love, nor express anything less than love – to the tiniest detail. There is no question that my partner and I love each other, however, it is in the expression of this love that we can deepen it. My ability to express love is a miracle.

    1. Yes Lee, there is no question about the commitment and love in your relationship with your partner, but I love how you share that it’s now about deepening this love in every interaction. I feel inspired to do more of this in my family and then take it out to the world.

  233. This is very beautiful Anne, thank you. Indeed, The Way of the Livingness brings through miracles in a sense, that things we thought were not possible (or cannot be changed), are possible (and have changed). And the beauty of it, is that we do not have to “try hard”, we just keep unfolding lovingly.

  234. Love your refreshing post Anne, very relatable, and love your Way too. It is amazing that with simple choice we can change our life irrevocably and start to live and appreciate actually living and being in, and a part of the world as opposed to ejecting from it. If we have love why would we (ever) want to eject from that; conversely, the fact that we do eject in the relatable examples you share, shows evidence of there being no love. And when there is no love, abuse and further ejections are always easy.

  235. A beautiful blog Anne. Such significant changes delivered so simply and with a great appreciation of where you have come from and who you are.

  236. Thank you for sharing your everyday miracles Anne. You are truly amazing and it is a miracle to see where you have come from. What I find inspiring and so real is that all these changes occur in the little things, this then builds a consistent platform from which to live ones life. Life is about the little things. If we get the little things right, the big things will take care of themselves.

  237. All too often we write off the everyday miracles we get to see and feel – I have done this in my past by choosing to live in a way that did not truly support me to be connected to myself and all others.
    The fact is I am a walking talking amazing man – I know I have experienced miracles – I am one and my life is full of them after reconnecting to my inner heart and being supported by Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine.

  238. Your blog is a great testament to the way of the livingness as well as to yourself. Reading it one could feel how simple changes can create miracles.

  239. Anne you have mentioned several major lifestyles changes that have occurred in your life. I don’t believe there is a word invented yet to describe that as calling them miracles is an understatement. The changes you have undertaken without dieting, rehab, drugs etc is unheard of in todays world, and they have all taken place because you have listened to what your body was telling you. Thank you Serge Benhayon for showing us the gift that is how to re-connect to our bodies and thank you Anne Malatt for this inspiring blog.

  240. I enjoyed your blog Anne, it is a great reminder that by making changes in our lives through love and responsibility we can live miracles.

  241. Your story is pretty cool Anne and you have shown how easy it is to incorporate Universal Medicine teachings into our lives, and the vast benefits of doing so.

  242. Loved this Anne. Your writing is so uncomplicated and easy to read. Simple miracles like you’ve described make everyday living vibrant, conducive and loving – may many more enjoy each day the same way too!

  243. This is a fantastic blog Anne that tells the story of not only your story, but that of mine and hundreds of others. Its just so liberating not to be dependant on all the things we kid ourselves that we like , alcohol coffee etc. For me it has been a total miracle.

  244. Thank you for sharing Anne, your story is very inspiring and highlights the miracles that are accessible for everyone who chooses self responsibility and commitment to bring love to the best of their capabilities in to their lives.

  245. After attending Universal Medicine events for the past several years I have witnessed many miracles like you have shared Anne. It is such a joy and inspiration to watch my life and those around me change and unfold into the beauty that they are, it’s very powerful.

  246. Anne the way that you frame this is spot on. Every change or refinement however subtle, towards loving and honouring ourselves is absolutely a miracle. That we don’t often stop to take stock of the amazing changes we make in our life means we are not appreciating how amazing we deeply are and that the things we have chosen to use to hide that inner amazingness are just that – things that do not support us at all. To celebrate the changes is vital.

  247. Thank you for sharing your own livingness. Since reading your post I realize that while no one has ever told me to make changes I have in fact made quite a few.
    * I have given up dairy
    * I choose tea over coffee
    * I recognize that my body is compromised if I stay up past 9pm
    * I embrace Gluten Free eating
    * I avoid all alcohol
    * I recognize the destructive nature of many songs on the radio
    * I feel less anxious
    * I have stopped striving to be better
    * I give myself permission to not eat all the food on the plate
    * I recognize the affect on my emotions after eating sugar
    In summary I can say I have stepped up to take responsibility for my life by simply taking notice of how my body feels. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to realize what has been happening by expressing here today.

  248. These are the real miracles that life is made of. The Way of The Livingness is what makes life a joy to live without a need for anything at all but with an ever deepening abiding love.

  249. This was just so lovely to read. Thank you Anne. I loved reading about the many miracles you have experienced and it reminds me of the miracles I have seen in my own life, through my introduction to Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine.

  250. A beautifully honest sharing, thank you Anne. I have much to appreciate from my introduction to Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine too – as I shared with a group recently, a miracle for me was to take responsibility for how I look in the clothes I choose to wear. Generally I took no interest in this aspect of life wearing whatever was bought for me and then mostly donning whatever was on the top of the pile. Now a days I have fun shopping for my own clothing and taking a moment in the mornings to pick out what feels supportive for the day and which colours/patterns feel like they are expressing how I feel that day.

    1. I like what you have said here Abby – it’s the SUSTAINABLE changes that make all the difference

  251. Anne Malatt – thank you. This is a very wise woman speaking. The wisdom can be heard in your words – as someone who has lived life and learnt a lot through it – now sharing your wisdom with the world. Thank you for confirming and letting us know that modern day miracles are possible. You ARE a living example of this.

  252. I love what you have written here Anne. I have also seen the Miracles in many who have been inspired by Serge Benhayon and the teachings of Universal Medicine and include myself in these Miracles.

  253. Anne thank you for reminding us what true miracles are. It’s not about some out of this world thing such as walking on water – rather the amazing changes that go against the state of society at this time.

  254. Wow this is article is amazing to read Anne, ‘I like myself, I care for myself and on most days I even love myself’, I can relate to what you have written here, I feel this too about myself which for me is also a miracle, having lived with a lack of self worth for over 30 years, I feel blessed to have met Serge Benhayon and feel deeply inspired by him.

  255. To many reading this they would be surprised that you have managed to clean up your life and get yourself back on track in so many ways. But the miracle is you didn’t do it by will power, you did it by caring for yourself and dealing with why you needed to drink, use food etc to get by and in doing so the need to have those things was no longer there. How lovely that you can appreciate all these miracles and also that you are a miracle too.

  256. This is an amazing article Anne on how you have turned your life around after being inspired by Serge Benhayon and shown by his example a loving way of life. You are inspiring me to do the same. Thank you.

  257. Everything you say here is gold and a beautiful reminder of how we can be if we choose. Thank you again.

  258. Wow Anne, beautiful blog! I love how your way of doing a before and after with words. You are a walking miracle! Allowing yourself to flourish, what a lovely choice!!! Thanks for this. Now we can enjoy you!!

  259. Thank you Anne. Your blog has allowed me to stop and appreciate all the miracles I have experienced since meeting Serge Benhayon and the work of Universal Medicine. And we are just one of many.
