Spiritual Empowerment for Energetically Aware Peeps

Spiritual Mastery: What People Miss…

By

Angel UpliftingDear Energetically Aware Being… dear Lightworkers, Healers, Intuitives, and Empaths, and Psychics:
 
You can not actualize your spiritual self without accepting, loving, acknowledging, and fully experiencing your human self.
 
If you are buying into the belief that you just need to ‘think better’, ‘be better’, ‘do better’, ‘practice better’, ‘practice more gratitude’, ‘do more shielding’, etc; in order to have the best spiritual experience, you are being duped into a way of life that detracts from the very thing you want.
 
Your human experience is a part of your spiritual experience. You can not express into this world fully unless you embrace your human-ness and allow yourself to fully experience all capacity of emotions/sensations/experiences that come to you.
 
The trick is not to spiritually bypass or try to ‘hijack’ out of your current experience. The trick… is to be in your experience with full acceptance of it. Maybe you can’t come to acceptance in the first hour, or day, or month or even year… but with time, Presence, Discernment, Balance, and Divine Grace… a day will come when you transcend the suffering of the mind.
 
In the meantime, just be.
 
Don’t let anyone tell you that you shouldn’t be in a place of suffering because you’re [Read more…]

Pigeon Medicine and Spirit Art

By

I recently worked at the Spark of Life Fair in Manhattan, Kansas.  An Intuitive Artist (Natosha Keefer) created a painting of her perception of my aura and energy; allowing my guides, guardians, and angels to express through it and deliver messages to me (very cool experience, btw).  Natosha mentioned a pigeon is working with me.  Honestly, I semi-dismissed it.  Later that day, I sat down to chat with another Psychic Medium (Shellie Jennings) about being on my radio show:

Shellie:  Are you from Chicago

Me:  No, I’m from Wichita

Shellie: “I keep seeing pigeons.”, then she hands me a book that discusses the spiritual meaning of the pigeon. [Read more…]

4 Hack’s for a Valentine’s Day Funk

By

4 Hacks Vday

Single again and the holiday’s gotcha down?  Here are four easy ways to hack out of that Valentine’s Day funk and feel great!

1 – Focus on Gratitude

Harnessing a feeling of gratitude is always a game-changer

2 – Change Your Story

Rumor has it that St. Valentine’s Day originated from
the Pagan celebrations, Lupercalia and Februa.  These celebrations revolved around spring cleaning, health, and fertility.  The Lupercalia festival was originally observed on February 15th and in 496 it was recast by Pope Gelasius as a Christian feast day labeled, St. Valentine’s Day.  Gift-giving and exchanging cards wasn’t a ‘thing’ until the 18th century.  It started in England and didn’t catch on in the United States until the 1850s.

3 – Release Your Expectations

Did you have expectations of receiving something from that ‘special someone’ because of someone else’s perception of this day and the evolution of events involving it?  How could the day be differing for you if you were to release those expectations and see this day as simply another day and be grateful for all the good in your life?

4 – Take Action

Take this as an opportunity to get in touch with the stories you tell yourself about Valentine’s Day.  How did Valentine’s Day originate?  How did your perceptions and expectations around this day get formed?  Who made this day into a day to give chocolates and cards?

What if, instead, you were to take this day as a symbol to clean out limiting habits and thoughts (spring cleaning); plant seeds mentally to achieve your goals and fulfill your calling (fertility); and therefore achieve good health as a result?

At the end of the day if you still want a rose?  This one is for you <3

Wishing you a day full of feeling fully loved, healthful, and fertile with good thoughts and positive vibes 😉

Love.

Love fixes.
Love saves.
Love melts the frozen,
broken places
inside of people.

Love heals all pain;
It creates
the space for
hearts to blossom.

To love,
is to be human.
To be Love,
is to be a hero.

An Open Letter To My Future Husband

By

Divine Union
Dear Future Husband,
I’m waiting for you to catch up to me in this dimension. Until then, I will continue to allow Life to open and unfold me into the woman you will recognize.  In the meantime, I wrote this guide for you:

 

The man who takes the time and initiative to get to know and understand all of me; the man who wants to give instead of just take from me; the man who takes the time to interact with and truly know me to the core of my being, is the man who will win my heart.

 

I don’t care what he looks like on the outside. I care about whether he’s dipped his toes into the deep-end of his own sorrow and has come out stronger and wiser on the other side. I care about whether he can sit in the silence and be comfortable there… and truly enjoy the company he keeps in the quiet moments. I care about how intimate he’s been with his own heart, and if he’s strong enough and capable enough to open it to me, again and again.

A Man’s Rejection Has Nothing to do With Your Value

By

A mans rejection doesnt define youA man’s rejection of you has nothing to do with your value or worth as a woman. What if? What if divine is using this experience to mold and shift you into the woman you’re unfolding to be? The woman that your future “special someone” wouldn’t recognize without you having gone through these experiences? And whose to say divine isn’t molding and shifting your “special someone” right now, too?

What if the experience of being rejected really has nothing to do with your value and worth, but actually is an opportunity and catalyst for your own self growth? An opportunity to come face-to-face with the parts of you that you judge so vehemently, and to love and accept those layers of you even more passionately than ever before? If that were true, what parts of you are crying out for love? Let it arise, and love that.

If you’re a dude reading this, the same applies.

Dragonfly Medicine

By

Dragonfly MedicineI got a dose of dragonfly medicine yesterday as I captured this magical dragonfly pic. It  lew past me and off in the distance.  I asked it to come back so I could take a pic, then it flew right over me and allowed me to capture this beautiful pic.  

 

Dragonfly represents transcendence, transformation, change, truth, reflections, mirrors for internal growth, mastering your emotions, mastering your thoughts, transcending limiting belief patterns, being an overcomer, and the realization that things are not always as they seem.  It represents breaking down illusions and an integration and balance of the mental and emotional bodies.  It can also mean seeing a situation for the truth of what it really is/means in your life.  With the dragonfly comes wisdom and enlightenment.

 

You will know the dragonfly is here to assist you because you will FEEL it.  They may show up in your dreams; suddenly appear from nowhere; appear in your experience in multitudes; land on you; buzz around you; or, like me, you have communications with it and it honors your requests.  Most of all, the experience will come with a knowing that you are being “spoken to”.  Follow it and don’t doubt yourself or your signs from from your Higher Power.

 

Anytime a symbol comes at you three times in a short time frame (for me it’s typically within a week or less), then the Universe or your Higher Self is trying to get your attention.  If so, you are being asked to wake up and search or inquire within about the meaning it has for you and your life.  The closer together (in time frame) the symbol comes, the stronger the message from spirit is.  Some call this synchronicity and it’s a powerful way to communicate with divine (Spirit or your Higher Self; the Universe; All That Is; your Higher Power; or what ever your idea of divine is)

 

In this instance, the dragonfly delivered the *exact* message I needed in regard to an inner conflict I’ve been having about a recent falling out with someone I love, care about, and miss dearly.  I’m grateful for the ways Spirit communicates with me through my environment.  

 

Have you noticed any symbol, animal, or message coming into your experience lately?  What does it mean to you?  I’d love to hear about it in the comments.

Wishing you a day filled with magic and synchronicity.

Stay strong and shine on.

Dealing with Grumpity People

By

Gratitude
Every time I go downstairs to the cafeteria there is a man serving breakfast that is happy-go-lucky and chipper, who puts a smile on my face. This morning, I went down and he was all grumpity, scowling, and kinda mean to me.
I was there five minutes before breakfast time ended, waiting in line to order. I requested a veggie omelette and he told me breakfast time was over.
Okay.
So I ordered lunch, instead. He took my order.
I went to check out the salad bar and came back five minutes later. My order had not been started.
Me: You got my order, right?
Him: Yes, we’re working on it.
Me: Observes that my order is not on the grill or in the deep fryer.
Him: Walks to fridge, gets my product and puts it on the grill, then gets another product and sets it in the basket of the fryer but doesn’t lower it into the oil.
Me: Waits a few minutes, feeling pretty pissed off.
Me: Just forget it. Walks away.
I left there feeling angry, I won’t lie. And then I asked God, “how can I use this situation for the Greater Good?”
Then it dawned on me.. the guy is ALWAYS in a good mood… and today he was clearly upset. Who knows what went on in his morning to make him that way? Maybe he got in a fight with his wife. Maybe a loved one died. Maybe somebody jumped his butt and so that leaked out to the customers. Who knows? What I *do* know, is that he is always in a good mood, and today he wasn’t; his Spirit always lifts mine which, in turn, always lifts my fathers. So, instead of letting the funk settle, I took action.
I went to the gift shop and I found a Thank You card… and a few wallet cards with a couple sayings. One was about gratitude, one said, “Thank you for your service”, and the other said, “The world is better with you in it”. And then I wrote a big long letter in the card to the following effect:
“I know this may seem weird, but God laid it on my heart to do this. I noticed you were in a bad mood this morning and I just want you to understand what an important role you play in the lives of others. You see, I live at the hospital with my dad. He has been up here over sixty days. I have watched him fight for his life – and even watched him have a heart attack before my eyes one night. It’s been stressful and there are a few things I look forward to in each day.
One of those things is your smiling face and your chipper attitude. Your kindness is contagious. I look forward to come down to get breakfast because I always leave feeling better than I did when I came.. and then that goodness overflows to my dad when I go back to his room. That’s how important you are; that’s the kind of impact you have on someone’s day.
So, I am writing this to you to help you to understand your importance in this life, and to thank you for being so awesome.. and I hope that it can maybe lift your spirits today the same way your Presence has lifted mine for the past couple of months. May God bless you and keep you.”
I admit, after I wrote it, my anger was gone, I was full of gratitude, and I felt so much better! And I am sure, after he read the card, so did he. Gathering my courage, I walked back into the cafeteria, where we’d just had a semi-altercation… and.. it’s almost as if God positioned him just exactly where he was available to me outside of the food area. I walked straight up to him as he was rounding the corner to the commons area. He looked at me and I handed him the card and said, “Have a great day!”, and smiled and walked off. His response, although he hadn’t even read the card or opened it?
“Thank you. Thank you very much.”… almost as if he knew I was a messenger.
These moments? They are the kind of moments that I live for… to know that a simple little act can turn things around – not just for him – but also for me… it’s just beautiful.
Is there a situation that you can use (or have used) for the Greater Good? Or where you just felt your Heart nudging you to take some weird action that may otherwise seem inappropriate or weird? Did you follow your heart? Or did you ignore your Inner Calling? If so, why? I’d love to hear about it!
Blessings and love to you! <3 <3 <3

Dear Spirit of Kindness, Thank You.

By

I missed you last week! My father has been in the hospital for the past month, fighting for his life. I’ve been camping out on the floor of his room because Spirit guided me to not leave him alone at night. I surrendered my life to divine years back and… ever since then, I do what I’m guided to do. I kinda have to ha ha ha!! I always tell people, “divine owns me”.

Needless to say, I’m not making videos right now and my newsletters may slow down a bit, but I felt guided to share one of my personal journal entries with you this week. The message here is not about suffering. It is about seeing the beauty in life, even when we hit rough patches:

Story: The Woman That Saved My Life in India

By

My first two months in India were spent behind a fenced in, protected area at an ashram.  My plan upon leaving the ashram was to travel around India for six months alone.  I had never been to a third-world country before, and I gotta admit:  The closer my departure date got, the more anxious I began to feel about traveling in India by myself.

So, I began to pray for the Universe to send me a travel partner – and it’s a good thing – because this woman quite literally likely saved my life!

Here’s how I co-created a travel partner for my first week outside of the ashram.  I hope this story serves you, in some way, on your journey of co-creating the life you deserve!  Got some manifesting stories?  Comment below, I’d love to hear all about it!

Thanks for checking out this week’s episode.  Catch you next week!  Until then, keep shining your Light, the world needs the awesomeness you’re serving up!
