Slow and Easy
Are you always looking for shortcuts? There is no shortcut for Life. It is eternal. You have all the time in the world … in the Universe, where there is no time. Why do a thing if you cannot do it well and fully? You are here for the [...]
One Center
Nested dolls. There can be no better analogy for your true nature than this. You find yourself now in a very dense world, feeling quite separate from others. But what if the center of you is also the center of a soul, which is the center of an even [...]
Standing Out
You cannot be all things to all people. So many people ask things of you, often pulling you in different directions. What to do? Learn to just be. Sit quietly and watch all the thoughts and demands float through the mind like clouds through the sky. In between the clouds [...]
Good Tension
Complacency. It has a similar energy to boredom. When things do not change and remain always the same, there is little motivation for growth. We are speaking of drama today. If you were to watch a favorite show and suddenly everything is going along swimmingly, after a while you would [...]
Out of There
There are certain things you wish to do that you know may be enjoyable in the short term, but they may not be completely aligned with your greatest and highest good in the long run. And yet, you do them anyway. And when you do, perhaps you feel regret, or [...]
Safe and Loved
Frantic. You know this word and the feeling it represents. The feeling causes you to stop what you are doing and focus all of your attention on filling that need that is filling you with such fear. And yes, fear is what is at the basis of frantic feelings. As [...]
Lost and Found
Perhaps you use the term “lost” when referring to one who has crossed the veil. “I lost my loved one.” They remain lost only until you come to understand the nature of consciousness and reality, which is made up of energy and information unfolding in experiences that flow like water. [...]
Networking
Trust that those you love who have passed are still with you. Perhaps you do not feel their presence. Do not take this as evidence that they do not exist. Can you feel the frequencies that produce your television programs? No. Not until you turn on the perfectly-tuned instrument designed [...]
Beyond Time
Why can you not predict everything? For in your current reality, time plays an integral role. It allows for cause and effect. Choices are the cause of the effects. If, as happens in the non-physical realms, all unfolds at once, such as in your dreams, the learning would not be [...]
Underlying It All
If you could but see the souls of all those around you, you would see them dancing, flowing, interacting without pause, without judgment, with total and utter Joy. In this case, Joy is not gleeful happiness that has an opposite. It is an underlying knowing that all are connected, that [...]
The Embrace
“I don’t know what to do,” you wail, and we understand. Now, instead of wailing to no one in particular, wail to the One that people turn to when distressed. “Oh, God, help me,” you might wail. And then, if you will let of any concept of a God who [...]
Not leaning
As you find yourself making excuses for your expected performance in what you are about to do, simply notice this. You would not be making such excuses if you were not in “only human” mode. Yes, there is always the possibility that you will not do as well as you [...]
Accumulations of Being
You are in relationship with all that is, constantly flowing. Whilst focused on the physical body, you may not realize this, but know yourself as flow and it will be quite apparent. Look around you and see how nature reflects the true nature of experience. See drops of water on [...]
Make the Ask
Do not fret about a project with a deadline. Surrender it — turn it over — to your unseen helpers at the higher level. They know all about it and work beyond space and time where there are no deadlines. Begin small with a simple task and make the ask. [...]
So Beloved
There is likely some person or animal companion who you love or have loved without condition. Yes, they had their perceived so-called faults, yet you accepted these as part of their being and loved them fully. Tell us, why can you not do this for all beings? The answer is [...]
Replenished
You say that crowds drain you. Well, of course they do if you say this, for in so saying, you constrict, and in so constricting, the natural flow of the Force that breathes you constricts as well. You breathe more shallowly. The muscles contract. You cease to flow, even though [...]
All Things
You may find your differences in others. Love them anyway. You may focus on what separates you. Love them anyway. You may never see eye to eye. Love them anyway. “But how can I love someone who thinks and acts differently than I do?” You may ask, and the answer [...]
Up and Down
See consciousness like an elevator. Your awareness can slide up and down through various levels or dimensions, and all are joined by the shaft. At the center of the mechanism is the control center, powered by a Source beyond yet part of the elevator. You are not stuck on one [...]
Flexible
Flexibility of viewpoint. This is what will help you to step more into soul awareness and see your challenges from the higher perspective of those in the higher realms. You are both human and a soul. As such, you can choose your perspective: limited and focused narrowly or expanded. You [...]
Healing
Healing takes place naturally under favorable conditions. The body knows how to attain and maintain balance and health. Look at a wound and watch how it heals when kept clean and unbothered. You wish to heal emotionally? Do not bother your wounds by ruminating about the past. Be present without [...]
