How I Became An Accessory
By Karen A. Jones

I attended my first Access class without knowing much about it, except reciting the mantra "all of life comes to me with ease, joy and glory" 10 times in the morning and 10 times in the evening. It was in the spring that I began my first Foundation & Level 1 class. From then on my life has changed in such a way that it's going to be interesting to explain in just what ways it has.

That spring, I had just finished a year and a half of therapy. I was happy to move on with my life after resolving some stuff that I had carried around with me for many years. I had always been someone who recognized the importance of dealing with your own shit. Self-empowerment through spirituality was something that I had consciously sought out. Through the whole "new thought" spiritual movement, I had been reasonably successful at incorporating the tools and processes to change and create the life I wanted. You know, like some of the stuff that Deepok Chopra, Wayne Dyer, Marianne Williamson, Neale Donald Walsch, Shirley MacLaine, Edgar Cayce, have been writing about.

Nonetheless, despite all the self-help work I had done on myself, I still continued to choose the wrong partners and to be up and down with my happiness. I had accepted my fate and was waiting for some new class to take to further my growth. I had an angel class, an emotion liberation class, a meditation class and Access as my choices. By the way, one of my best friends had already taken the Access class and I had found him to be sooooo different that I knew I had to take that class.

Maurizio was known to be a bit hyperactive. After these classes he was so chilled and relaxed it was extraordinary! I watched him transform right before my very eyes. Fascinated by the changes I saw in him, I decided to take the same course that had so visibly affected him. He was the best advertisement the class could have. He invited me to his home to do one of the techniques called "bars". I layed down on my back and he put his finger tips on 32 different points of my head. I just plain relaxed and went into a meditative state and allowed myself the experience. When it was over, I felt totally relaxed. I had beautiful visions and I knew that something was different when it was done. I later learned that the worst thing that could happen after the "bars" is that you feel you had the best massage without touching your body. The best thing that happens is that you change your life.

I was lucky to have three friends taking my first classes with me. It was a small group of about 12 people in all. When my Access facilitator Dr. Dain Heer began asking questions I had no idea what he was saying! It was like a stream of words flowed from his mouth that seemed to make no sense. In fact one of the things Access is based on is energy and the energetics of words. If you go to www.accessraz.com you can get the history of Access's inception since 1994.

So he would ask these energetic questions and then do a "clearing statement" to destroy the energy that came up from the question. Do you get it? No, well join the club. The point is, even without words, the energy of our thoughts, feelings and emotions are there - aren't they? Well, what happens is that through the energy of the questions, the answers that are limiting us bubble up through us. Then they are taken to their "point of creation" (POC) and their "point of destruction" (POD) by means of the clearing statement and they disappear. Sounds too easy doesn't it? Well guess what? It is - especially when you are willing to allow yourself the opportunity to destroy it all in order to have it all.

The point is that in our world we don't have a problem with creating but we do have a problem with destroying. At first I was a little wary of destroying everything and then I recognized that the limitations in my life were weighing me down in density, making me feel crappy. As soon as I allowed myself the opportunity to listen to the questions and honestly answer yes, destroy and uncreate that please, my body would get a chill that traveled from my head down my spine. Now all I want to do is destroy and uncreate it all so that I can be the light and infinite being that I was born to be.

Since then, I've used the tools and techniques given by Access to allow joy, bliss and ecstasy as my true state of being - instead of pain, suffering and gory. I wake each day with a question because questions empower and answers define and limit. I live in the question and the universe gives me infinite possibilities. How does it get any better than that?

How has my life changed you ask? To begin with, I'm less likely to judge people - especially myself. I've begun a loving communion with my body that I've never had before and I've lost about 15 pounds without suffering. Because of this new body connection, my sex life has improved in a way that I didn't think possible. I used to walk around with a black cloud over my head. Now I stand in front of my audiences and proudly proclaim that "I love my life!" I'm just altogether joyful in my day to day life.

My awareness of energy and how it moves and moving it and being it and receiving it and allowing it to be has been so fascinating. I'm not anxious, or worried, or tired anymore. In fact, I have so much more energy. I'm able to accomplish about 50% more in the course of a day and sometimes even more than that. I've tripled my income after only 6 months of taking my first Access class! My singing voice is so much more powerful and clear. Relationships with my friends, family and students have deepened and I'm much more in allowance of everyone's personal process.

Even today, when I stumble over myself and discover a pattern or limitation that I still have not destroyed - that has come to kick my butt again - I can claim it and destroy it. This time, without hating myself, I can acknowledge the billions of years I've continued to fall into the same black hole and now I finally have a way to stop the creation of all that shit. I just ask the questions. How does it get any better than that?

Believe me, it gets better.
