Perfect Timing

I’ll tell you, things have been a bit hectic as of late, and because of this I’m getting this post to you a little later than normal. Also, I decided that it might be useful to change things up this week and give you all a little snippet of the book I’m currently working on, Channel Surfing: Enlightened Messages for a Dense Planet. This gives you some good information about divine timing and gives me a little extra divine time to get things done. An overall win-win situation, I think.

Anyway, I wish you all a wonderful holiday week, filled everything you love to eat!

With Love.

Q: How does divine timing come into play in us getting what we want?

A. Divine timing is universal life force co-creating with you in ways that best serve you.  At times it may not feel that this is so. At times it may feel as if that no matter how much you desire or ask for something it never comes. Though at times it may come in a form you did not expect, and so did not recognize it as occurring. 

 And there are times when you may desire something immediately, but it may take longer than you want for you to get it. This can occur when you still have lessons to learn. It may be feelings of unworthiness that need to be released or you may be learning how to sustain a situation if it were to come to you, or it may simply not fit in with your current life path at that time. There are many reasons for divine timing. The Universe may be protecting you from situations that are not in your best interest. Or the situation may not yet be available to you due to other individuals who are not yet ready for the change, yet are an integral part of the end result.
 

There are instances when divine timing creates space for clarity for what it is that you truly want to manifest. The time to process information and lessons that come your way allows for a greater end result. Acknowledging the potential learning and staying conscious with the information will help to move toward a quicker manifestation.

You’re Awesome!

This week’s message is about being yourself, but in a bigger way. It’s about taking your present you and stepping up your game. Do you have dreams of being more confident, or courageous, or compassionate, or just generally an all-around a better human being? What’s stopping you?

Basically what Spirit is telling us is to “act as if”. Act as if you already are that person that you want to be. Whether taking baby steps or huge leaps, just get going and have faith in yourself. The first step is always the hardest, but each step after gets easier and easier. And you know why? Because you already are that amazingly awesome human being!

With Love.

Live now as the self you aspire to be. Take action to build the self that is your greatest desire by acting today as if you already are. It is by stepping into this role that you embody the spirit of your greatest self and highest potential. It is by doing so that you elevate the personal standards you hold for yourself and take action to meet those standards. It is in doing so that you retrain your mind to accept yourself in this higher regard and become that which you desire.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Q: How do we move past the feelings of inadequacy that sometimes get in the way of our acting as our most powerful self?

A. By taking action, no matter how small. Each action that moves you closer toward your greatest self is a powerful statement to the Universe that you desire change and are willing to work toward that change. It is in simply building strength and confidence with each step. No action is too small or achievement too insignificant while allowing your greatest self to come forward.

Shine a Light

I have a group of very dear intuitive friends with whom I’ve been meeting with each month about for about 10 years. We do this to catch up, eat a little food and then do healing sessions on one another. We laugh, often cry, and always part ways feeling much better. Every now and then during these sessions one of us may start spontaneously channeling, and the information that comes through is usually something that one of us – or all of us – needs to hear.

It was during our recent get together that I started channeling and received this week’s message. What came through was insight on a topic of one of our conversations that day. It centered on how when we focus on all of the horrific things happening in the world it can leave us feeling angry and frustrated, and how changing our perspective elevates not only us, but our world around us as well. It’s all about shifting focus so you can be happier and better able to offer support to others without taking on any of their suffering. Hey, sounds pretty good to me!

With Love.

Keep your eyes open to the world around you, yet focus on the light of peace. To do so creates in you a higher energetic vibration and happier sense of being. It is in this way that one retains a more positive outlook and satisfying existence.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Q: Won’t focusing solely on peace make us turn a blind eye to the suffering of others? Isn’t it necessary to stay aware of this suffering in order to help?

A. It is not to turn a blind eye to the suffering of others; instead, it is to acknowledge the suffering without dwelling on their pain. When one allows greater focus on the suffering of those around them and less focus on that which brings joy and a sense of peace, it creates in them a lower vibrational frequency that can cause depression and feelings of hopelessness. This lower vibration adds to the collective consciousness of suffering, expanding it and affecting all of humanity. To focus on that which brings joy and creates a sense of peace raises one’s vibrational frequency, adding to and expanding the collective consciousness of joy and peace. This affects all of humanity by elevating the spirit and creating a more harmonious community. It is also when one chooses to focus on the more positive aspects of an event that they are better equipped to offer support to those who are suffering, as they approach the situation with a more altruistic mindset and not one of despair.

It’s All in How You Look at It

I just had a wonderful weekend spending time with friends that I’ve known for around thirty years, give or take. A great group of women, we all get along swimmingly even though our lives come from different places. Our many conversations centered on, as always, family, work and home, and it got me thinking about the level of success that each of us has experienced over the years in our own different way. Whether we have a team of kids, only one or none at all; live in a palatial estate or a tiny dwelling; have a new car or a well-used one; or are rolling in the dough or living a more, eh hem, creative feast or famine type of existence, the one thing I noticed is that we all seem pretty happy.

Success can come in so many different forms, and this week’s message focuses on how our perception of life impacts whether we feel successful or not. Regardless of your current circumstance, celebrating your achievements and victories – no matter how small – will have you feeling like life is a blooming success and give you the foundation for greater overall happiness.

Let the celebrations begin!

With Love.

From Over There: 11.2.14 Weekly Focus

Be mindful of your perceptions of the world around you. Your perceptions create your version of reality. If you perceive your life to be successful and full of blessings, then that will be your experience. If you perceive your life to be a failure and lacking in that which you desire, then that will be your experience. Believe in the beauty of your life and your life will be beautiful.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

This week’s question:

Q: How do we shift our perceptions to a more positive stance when we’re in the midst of hardship or have suffered some sort of traumatic loss?

A. When one experiences such painful circumstances it is beneficial to process through the emotional pain. Do not suppress it, as this will only create energetic blocks that keep you stuck in the pain. Process it so as to move through it and let it go; though we are now asking that you focus on the perceptions of your everyday life, this is what we are speaking of. To be mindful of the perceptions of one’s everyday experiences make one better equipped to process such painful emotions as they arise. If you perceive your life to be successful and are grateful for its present circumstance, then your experience will be one of success and fruitfulness. If you perceive your life to be a failure and lacking in what you desire, then no matter what you achieve or accumulate you will never be truly satisfied. To appreciate the blessings life has to offer allows for more blessings to come your way and creates the space for happiness in every moment.

Nothing to Fear

This week in honor of upcoming Dia de los Muertos and All Hallows Eve (aka, Halloween) we’re going to focus on the dead. No, not the band the Grateful Dead, but of our dearly departed dead. I wasn’t quite sure exactly what was going to arise from the world of Spirit when I asked for a message with this focus, so I stayed open to what “they” felt was important to convey.

What came up has been brought up before, and it relates more to the importance of death and our fear of this inevitable process. I found that my own personal fear of death was drastically reduced, ironically, after having witnessed firsthand the passing of a dear friend. It wasn’t the actual moment that she left her body that affected me so, but more her energy immediately following. It felt liberated, free and completely unencumbered. It was truly beautiful. While yes it was still emotionally painful, I felt so happy for my friend. She finally had the sense of freedom that she had been searching for her entire life. What it did for me was to know that death is not something to be feared. It’s simply part of life.

No matter what, we will all leave our bodies some day. It’s just part of nature, so why not make the most out of life while we’re here? Go climb that mountain, take a painting class, change careers, or whatever it is that you’ve wanted to do, but held yourself back out of fear. As Franklin D. Roosevelt wisely stated, “The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.” Go out and live.

With Love.

From Over There: 10.26.14 Weekly Focus Understand that those who are no longer inhabiting a body are simply in another phase of life. It is an extension of life in another form. Process of disconnection from the physical body is not to be feared, as it is through the course of nature that one shed the body in preparation for the next phase of evolution.  It is as honorable and necessary as birth, as it completes a cycle of development for the individual. Embrace this understanding. Doing so will release the fear of death and lead one to live a more fulfilling life.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

This week’s question:

Q: Can you explain how releasing the fear of death leads one to live a more fulfilling life?

A. It is when there is no fear of death that one releases the fear of risk that that may at times comes with pursuing achievement. When one remains constrained in fear it diminishes the potential of a fulfilling life and the pleasure of experience that comes with it. Fear stunts the flow of creativity and lessens the potential for one to share their unique gifts and talents with the world.  If one does not fear death, one opens more fully to the richness that life has to offer. If one does not fear death, then one does not rigidly hold attachment to the body, knowing that life is everlasting. To embrace this sense of immortality is to embrace a sense of freedom.

Q: This leads me to another question. Shouldn’t we hold at least a little fear of death in order to keep ourselves safe?

A. It is not to fear death, it is to respect life and treat yourself in accordance to this principle.

Fill It Up With the Good Stuff

Have you ever found yourself brainlessly surfing the net or watching bad TV as a means to decompress or checkout? Yeah, me too. And it’s not that this type of brainless activity now and then is necessarily a bad thing, it’s more about the quality of the overall moments in your life that counts. So what if, by chance, instead of staring into some form mindless media void you chose something else? What if you took a nap, or a walk, or sat under a tree, tried your hand at painting, or…you get the picture.

I know that I can get better about how I let myself unwind after a busy day or what I do when I take breaks from boring tasks, so I appreciate the reminder that this week’s message gives us. I’m willing to commit to a little more conscious quality downtime, how about you?

With Love.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

From Over There: 10.19.14 Weekly Focus Fill your time with activities that are of value to you. You are worthy of pursuing moments that inspire joy and satisfaction, not activities that are simply done so as a means of avoidance and procrastination. Now is the time to be aware of how you fill your time.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

This week’s question:

Q: How do we instill a sense of joy and satisfaction when pursuing activities that are valuable, yet are mundane and not very exciting to perform?

A. To focus on the outcome and reason behind the activity. For instance, do you pursue the task of organizing to make your life flow more easily? Then focus on the feelings of comfort and ease that the outcome of the task will bring. Whatever the activity, it is in focusing on the positive aspects of the outcome that make the process less daunting. It is in also balancing the task with breaks while pursuing those activities that are of value and reward you with joy and satisfaction. Distracting oneself from mundane tasks with less valuable activities leads to frustration and further procrastination.

Strike a Balance

Sometimes the energetic forces swirling around us can feel a bit out of whack, leaving us feeling pretty out of whack as well. This week we focus on how to create your own kind of balance, a feeling of being grounded and centered amidst all the chaos. It covers the practice of grounding your energy so you’re not left feeling as spastic as an un-tethered balloon, or as immobile as a garden slug.

In addition to the suggestions below, here is a quick visualization that will help keep you feeling centered in your body: start with taking a nice, deep breath in, and as you exhale,  imagine your energy moving down from the top of your head, down your body, and down to the soles of your feet. Now imagine the energy coming out of your feet in the form of vines that extend downward into the Earth. See these vines grow down, pushing through the rock and soil and then wrap around a rock, anchoring there. This will help keep your energy focused in your body. Once you get the hang of it you can do it instantaneously anytime, anywhere.  

May your energy scales be balanced and your week a joyous one!

With Love.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

From Over There: 10.12.14 Weekly Focus Planetary energy fluctuations are occurring that may create feelings of imbalance. One may feel energized and then fatigued, changing from moment to moment. Use this time to practice grounding your energy in order to bring balance and sustain equilibrium. Without doing so, one risks the stress of excess energy and the worry of fatigue. To balance oneself energetically also brings balance to the emotions, creating a greater sense of peace and overall happiness.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

This week’s question:

Q: Can you please elaborate on what is meant by the stress of excess energy and the worry of fatigue?

A. With excess energy- when there is no outlet for release –anxiety and stress can occur, leaving one feeling unsettled and overwhelmed. Grounding practices such as connecting with the natural world, exercising the body and pleasurable forms of physical movement, and the ingesting of protein help utilize the excess energy in a positive manner. The worry of fatigue often arises when one equates the feelings of fatigue with impending illness or mental depression. By following the aforementioned grounding practices, one reinvigorates the senses and releases blocked or stagnant energy in the mind and body. It is personal preference as to which grounding practice or practices are best suited for the individual.
