A dear friend asked what do we do with the evil in the world…
A dear friend recently asked me what do we do with the evil in the world.
Well, first we have to define evil. I find the word ‘evil’ does not express what is going on within the people who commit the acts causing such great upset. Any combination of the following may have happened to them, leading to actions described as ‘evil’.
Disenfranchisement, loneliness, abuse, severe disempowerment, lack of faith in love and communication based on their past, poverty, and therefore vulnerability, indoctrination by others who have felt the same, trying to find a place to belong, being heard, an expression of the deep resentment and anger they have internally for all the unfairness they perceive. It is coupled, or should I say fuelled, by a sprinkling of righteousness on all sides.
A book that is so special to me…
The other day I was in my sauna, sweating my brains out because my body had been in pain. I was listening to the book ‘Braiding Sweetgrass’. It’s brilliant. The first time I read it, I wasn’t able to take in the full magnificence of the words within. I was in a different place.
We’ve just had our Canadian Thanksgiving, the Shadow of American Thanksgiving which follows in November.
I was listening to the story of how important nuts were to those tribes that lived on the prairies and in the forest. They would store nuts, much like wise squirrels and chipmunks do because they contain protein and good fats for the winter.
Abundance everywhere
I mean, I know we’re made from atoms that come from the soil that also feeds the trees, and food. That same soil, combined with sun and rain also causes the abundance of beauty in nature and the very oxygen we breathe.
BUT YOU KNOW HOW sometimes you just get it more deeply in your cells?
We’re overflowing even at the level of the smallest particle of us … gosh, we come from those atoms. The atoms that were originally stardust. Sometimes it just gets me.
It wasn’t until the last seven years when I started sowing and gathering the harvest of my beautiful garden, which includes flowers, plum trees, and fig trees, that I really got how relentlessly generous, bountiful and giving nature is and, therefore, since we are part of nature, we’re meant to be so.
Does anything really die?
I am fully aware that we’re made of the atoms of the dead seas, and the Sahara sands that flew from Africa, and the oak trees like this one that eventually turned to dust. They’re physically within us in molecular form.
About a month ago, we had to cut down what was once a beautiful oak tree. The amount of fun Mighty Mouse is having on top of the wood pile reminds me of how much I used to delight in that oak tree as well, his delight is simply in a different form from mine.
I’ve noticed recently how many friends have family who are making their transition and they’re just in a different form too. They’re just as whole and just as abundant now as they were when they had physical form.
I snuck out … sort of … and evidence
I’ve been sleeping upstairs lately, because I need to find my presence again.
Adam and I have discussed it many times, and he totally understands. He feels the same way.
The other night he had some pain in his knee, and it was obvious. So he went to bed early, after using some light therapy. I finished helping him do all his things and then I walked out of my house for a 15-minute walk. Close to the New Moon, the sky was perfectly clear. It’s dark except for this … I live in the country, there are no city lights at all, and I can see the Milky Way as clearly as a sunset.
I walked straight down the middle of the road, on the double yellow line, because everyone here is in bed or on the way by then. It was like having a Universe to myself. I was like a 3-year-old in total wonder. I felt as though all was possible, as I just couldn’t help but constantly look up and up and up. From watching all the Hubble Telescope news, I also now know that most of what we think are stars, are actually Galaxies … can you believe it? 100’s of billions of stars in every galaxy.
Manifesting without intention…
Back on the Super Blue Moon last month (at 9:36 pm ET on August 30, to be exact) I shared a very short process for manifesting beyond making mental intentions. That’s so last century!
It’s time to take it up a few notches around manifestation portals, becoming an amazing receiver, and just having everything come to you.
Below is the replay about going through the process and exercise of what stops us from being the most amazing receiver and what to do differently.
Are you interested in receiving those ‘OR BETTER’S’?
Receptivity breaks are an opportunity to change your frequency channel. To receive, you must have an understanding that you are being given to at the rate of trillions of cells at a time and that it is all happening for you.
You also need vigilance for the direction and good stuff that life is sending you, rather than vigilance for protecting or proving yourself; if you are too independent, you will miss all of the opportunities for co-creation and contribution. These opportunities that present themselves are often nonlinear and a little irrational to the left brain. But when you leave consistent, intermittent space in your schedule, you can create receptivity breaks…
Be willing to dance with whatever life brings you by saying yes. That requires being curious about the adventure, which you actually have been on before. You did all of this when you were two years old…
Ever felt it’s your time to feel fulfilled…
We (the team and I, catalyzed by Sonia), would love you to have access to the original mini-series of 5 live videos on Embracing Flow, Healing the Past, and Unlocking Freedom to Pursue Your Dreams.
In case you’ve been on a digital detox and missed it, last week I hosted a series of live videos and a very engaging chat with soul family over in our TWA Playground Group on Facebook and in our Agents of Awakening (AOA) Community. They’re now on our YouTube Channel, so you’re able to watch and listen to them there.
Watch as soon as possible to get out of any patterns keeping you in the same old … you’ll be so glad you did!
Undistinguished ways of being…
Do you have unidentified embodied habits that drive the bus of your life?
Until we understand what it is to embody our way of operating in alignment with the laws of life, life is just a series of fix-it actions.
Embodied old, automatic operating systems disappear when the entire operating system is aligned with thriving. So, instead of fixing what doesn’t work, we actually come to a life frequency more aligned with how consciousness works. Those old patterns simply cannot exist anymore as they don’t match our new way of plugging into life.
A recent incident with my family is a great example. There are clues how to permanently get out of doing ‘the work’ of fixing our protective identities, or working so hard on repatterning.
Righteousness in yourself and others
Righteousness in yourself and others. What does that even really mean?
It’s all over the media and throughout the political spectrum and, as a result, it is probably prevalent in some of your social circles with friends and family.
Where does it come from? Why do we get that way? How do we define it? What frees us from the need to react to it or use righteousness?
The subject of righteousness has come up for me several times in the last couple of months. I was speaking with one of my clients and we could both see so many angles on righteousness. Sometimes I can get that way, but I catch myself because it really doesn’t feel good. It also isn’t an inclusive way of speaking, and blocks fluid shifts. If you are all about making fluid shifts … well, you know.
Why ‘doing what is presenting’ is so important
The following question was posted by Trudy, one of our Flight School graduates, in our Agents of Awakening Community and I felt it would assist to share my reply in this week’s inspiration in case you missed it, or you’ve not yet joined us there … (what are you waiting for?) 😉
Trudy’s Question: “When do you know to take the lead, knowing what you know, and observing unfolding events as a neutral party?”
The concept that is most important in answering this question well is ‘DOING WHAT PRESENTS’. It’s actually the most simple of concepts, and yet it’s foreign to us as we’re so prone to running around in unconscious survival mode. Kids, groceries, goals, oil changes, banking, relationship reactions, fears about the world or the country, and so on.
The only truth is what we declare as true
Recently, one of our Facebook group members tagged me on a meme asking for my take on this statement:
“Truth stays the truth no matter by how much ignorance it is surrounded.”
Thought I’d share it with you in this week’s Weekly Inspiration in case you missed it.
“First of all, lol, just because something is on social media as a meme, doesn’t mean it’s true. LOL, the irony is not lost on me.
For me the only truth is that which we declare as true because of the laws of physics, making what we declare simply ‘a truth for now’, not ‘THE truth’.
What is an Akashic Record, scientifically speaking?
Recently, I’ve met a new friend, colleague and client that I am so enjoying. Why, you ask? Because she loves diving into the Quantum Field and well, so do I!
I thought it might be a good thing to explain what an Akashic Record is from the point of view of physics.
It’s the record of your doings, personality, natural propensities, incompletions in other lifetimes and, most importantly, it holds the ‘codes’ for your future trajectory based on choices you’ve made in the past. Think of it as the intention for the direction you are headed, all that which might be in your way based on the past, and every future potential all wrapped up in a metaphysical soup that can be plugged into a physical body.
A lot of people talk a good game… but…
Spiritual knowledge versus living it: you know those people that talk a good game? I used to be one of ’em.
It’s interesting how much more humbling this journey called life has gotten as I add years. Recently, I’ve been searching for the words to express this deep knowing that embodying shifts is definitely not the same as reading about spiritual wisdom.
I feel it, know it, live it and understand it … but the explanatory words just didn’t come, until I was listening to an Indian Guru.
Ingredients for finding fluidity in family
One of my favorite movies is How to Train Your Dragon. In the movie, the kid’s name is Hiccup. His father, Stoick the Vast, puts an older man, Gobber the blacksmith, in charge of Hiccup. After a particularly embarrassing mishap by Hiccup, Gobber waves his hand in the boy’s general direction, chases after him for a while, and says, “You know, Hiccup, you’re going to have to stop all of … this.” Hiccup replies, “But you just pointed to all of me”! “Yes, that’s it,” says Gobber, “You need to stop being all of you.”
Maybe you’ve felt like Hiccup at times in your life, and you’ve been defending yourself from criticism or harm ever since. Perhaps you’ve come to believe that someone else’s opinion of you is the truth of who you are.
Maybe, like me, you morphed yourself so that you’d be lovable or acceptable to others. Maybe, you react when you don’t feel connected and aren’t looking for the “third entity” solution to the problem. Maybe you’re not well practiced at answering the question, “What would love do”?
What are you being vigilant for?
Sometimes we become myopic about life, focusing on problems with laser-like precision.
The other day inspiration hit and I decided to go for a walk with the intention of reminding myself that the miraculous abounds.
This is what Life gave me back as evidence. Absolutely stunning. Just thought I’d share.
What evidence have you had of the miraculous lately?
What are you being vigilant for?
Three things happened at once…
The other morning, as I was pulling out an old plant that took up a lot of room and was on its way out, I heard the bell from the Baptist church down the road, at the same time as I caught a glimpse of the peonies I was planting to replace the old bush.
I love peonies. They remind me of Canada and my front yard. They take me to an emotional home place. That’s why I’m planting them. I keep imagining seeing the peonies while I’m sitting on my front porch.
At the gathering place down the road, the minister is impassioned and talks very loudly. Sometimes, he’s incredibly inspiring and I just stand outside on the road and listen, while at others when he talks about the challenging aspects of humanity, there’s fear within the church. I speak at many churches, so this isn’t about making church wrong, but rather the idea that most of humanity spends time finger-pointing.
If my greater wisdom is excited how do I catch up to that?
Hey, why not join me for a morning tea today (or your morning ‘beverage’ of choice), as I’d love to share with you my process for dropping into my greater wisdom’s ‘knowing’ each morning. Doing this has shifted me from ‘autopilot’ to really feeling the sense of urgency calling me forward, and relishing it.
I did this specifically for people that highly attuned to the energy around them.
The Ingredients for Receiving!
If you are too busy, you will not be present enough to do what life is presenting you; you won’t even see it. Receptivity breaks happen when you go and do something fun or uplifting for absolutely no reason. You are telling consciousness that you are interested in receiving those ‘OR BETTER’S’ because your frequency is high, and you have relinquished control, so the door is open. Raising your frequency of emotion is like changing the channel on your TV. What you receive is entirely dependent on the channel to which you tune your emotions.
Receptivity breaks are an opportunity to change your frequency channel. To receive, you must have an understanding that you are being given to at the rate of trillions of cells at a time and that it is all happening for you.
How to start your day feeling filled with possibility…
Recently, I woke up feeling inspired to do a Live call.
I call it “The Perfect Morning Reset.” This meditation activation is designed to set the stage to future activate a day filled with expansion, amazing possibilities and clarity of effective solutions for you.
I’m sharing the replay with you in case you’re not yet a member of either our private online Agents of Awakening Community, or our Wide Awakening Playground Facebook Group.
Here’s something to consider about overthinking…
Have you ever found yourself replaying conversations in your mind, wishing you could have prevented upset with a loved one? Or perhaps you’ve had imaginary discussions with someone close to you, hoping to achieve a desired outcome. Maybe you’ve even caught yourself overthinking a situation that hasn’t even happened yet, simply out of fear that it might not go the way you want it to.
Everyone does it to some degree or another.
There are a few reasons why we tend to overthink various aspects of our lives, such as situations, events, relationships, projects, and the world around us.
