Welcome to the Journey

The only journey is the Journey within.

Welcome to the EverydayOasis.com website. This website is all about you and your needs and it truly is your place to relax, renew, and reconnect. No matter how you found us, it is no accident that you’re here and all of us want you to know that we’re glad you’re here. If you’re on the planet, you’re on the Journey and we’re here to be a Guide so you don’t get discouraged and frustrated and so you know you’re never alone. We are all One. So whether you came for Stress Relief or to Make Changes in your life you are in the right place. There is a point in everyone’s Journey where they start asking questions like:

  • Is this all there is?
  • Why doesn’t anything I do turn out the way I want it to?
  • Where’s the meaning in all this?”
  • Why can’t I just be happy?
  • Why can’t I change; why do I keep going back to doing the same old things? the list goes on…

Lora Canary, MHA, Founder & CEO of Everyday Oasis LLC, asked these same questions of herself as she was on her Journey. She wanted real answers to real problems and through her perseverance over a period of more than 15 years, she found them and began sharing them with clients in her private practice and now shares them with others worldwide through this website, her Recordings and Writing.

“We can’t solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.” Albert Einstein

If the effects of too much stress in your life are causing health issues, work issues, and relationship issues then you need “new thinking” to deal with them. But how do you get that “new thinking?” That was another question Lora really wanted an answer to and her quest for that answer resulted in the development of The Everyday Oasis Relaxation recording.

In order to think different (which is truly possible) you must “BE” different and the only way to “BE” different is to be able to Relax all the way down to your cellular, vibrational level. At that level you have access to that “program” you’ve been running in the background of your life, all of your life. That “program” is the result of all the experiences you’ve had since you were born. It is in essence your belief system about your life and life in general. It is your perception of what has happened and is happening in your life and your world. This deep, cellular, vibrational Relaxation allows you to access that “program” so you can consciously evaluate it to see if it is bringing you what you truly want. The choice now becomes available to create a new more positive life. It is a life affirming program and for many people it is the first time they’ve experienced the power of unconditional loving energy. It is powerful to say the least.

Deep, cellular, vibrational Relaxation is the key to Health, Wealth, Love, Peace and Success! This Relaxation is the portal to all these things and the fast, easy, and effective way to open up your creativity to allow the beautiful possibilities you desire to become reality.

These are the Core Principles that guide all that we do:

1. Everything begins with a thought.

2. The only connection that matters is your connection to YOU.

3. YOU control your life. You are NOT a victim.

4. Your outside world is a reflection of your inside world.

5. YOU ARE WORTHY! You always have been, and you always will be.

Thank you for being here and for your brilliance. You are a very bright light in this world. The light within all of us at Everyday Oasis.com honors the light with you.

Connecting Mind, Body, & Spirit

For almost 30 years, Dr. Dean Ornish has directed clinical research demonstrating, for the first time, that comprehensive lifestyle changes may begin to reverse even severe coronary heart disease, without drugs or surgery. Excerpted from his book Love and Survival.

One of the comprehensive lifestyle changes he discussed was to rediscover inner sources of peace, joy and well-being. The idea behind Everyday Oasis.com was to help people realize the importance of learning to relax, renew and reconnect on a daily basis. Dr. Ornish demonstrates that there are real measurable health benefits to learning to relax. And learning to really reconnect at a deep level with ourselves and then with others will be like a daily dose of aspirin only easier on the stomach.

So exactly how do you reconnect and start enjoying the inner sources of peace, joy and well-being? To start, you have to realize that you are the creator of your emotional responses to everything that happens in your life. Yes, it is true, no matter how much you want to blame your responses on everyone and everything, in reality, you are the one who controls the response and we all know what a highly emotional negative response does to your heart rate, breathing, muscle tension, brain waves, and nervous system.

How many times a day do you end up in a situation where you are having a negative interaction? Now think about the last time you looked at someone with complete love and compassion and gentleness. Think of that picture in your mind and feel those feelings, not just for a moment but really let yourself feel those feelings down deep inside you.

Concentrate that emotional response of love, compassion and gentleness so that you begin to feel it permeate your entire body, muscle group by muscle group until your whole body vibrates from that emotion. That is one way to reconnect yourself, mind, body and spirit. You become disconnected when you feel one thing, and think another, and your body does something totally different. We spend most of our lives disconnected. How many times have you said, “I need to take better care of myself.”
But then you don’t work out or you grab fast food that has no nutritional value and you allow yourself to wallow in negative thoughts about yourself and/or others. You’ve heard the statement –

Everything you have in your life began as a thought.

Try choosing positive, life – affirming thoughts so that the life you lead will be the life you really wanted to lead.

The choice starts way before something happens. We all know that things are going to happen in our lives, so we must first begin with understanding ourselves and what we value for ourselves. When you come from an understanding of what you value then you can make up your mind ahead of time and decide how you will handle situations that come up in life in a more positive way.

You can be proactive and decide that you will not give others the power to make you happy or sad or angry or depressed. You can decide that your feelings come from inside of you and are a chemical reaction to the myriad of previous emotional responses you’ve had over the years in similar situations.

The great thing about knowing this is that you can take a proactive stance right now about how the rest of your life, beginning today, will go. You can begin to change the reaction by stopping and taking a good long look at your response and then realizing that at this very moment you can choose a better response. Practice this mode of reprogramming your negative automatic responses and see what a difference it makes in how you feel and how others react to you.

You have the power to change your world and it resides within you. Taking the time out of your day to reconnect with yourself and start directing that power in the way you really want it to go will be the most beneficial thing you can do for yourself and all those around you.
