3 Simple Steps to Look Your Demons in the Eye!
We all harbor resentments, judgments, and suppressed negative emotions. It is part of our human make up. When we suffer an emotional or spiritual trauma (these can be physical as well) our bodies have a protection program that ignites in order for us to survive the pain of the trauma.
Where do these traumas go? In our brains we have sections called Amygdalas. This is the area of our gray matter that controls emotions, emotional behavior, and motivation. The shape of these amygdalas look like a spiral, with the inner most portion of these swirls holding our earliest trauma memories. When we were young, things that were painful for our little brains to handle were swept away into these amygdalae and were kept in the dark for us to deal with later in life when we could handle it a little better.
But what happens is that when it is time for us to "handle" these traumas as adults, we are told that they are medical conditions such as anxiety, depression, bi-polar disorder and another "condition" that requires to over load our systems with medication. This medication numbs the pain and stops the uncomfortable feelings associated with these traumas...leaving them never dealt with. Our bodies harbor these repressed and hidden emotions and manifest as sickness, progress blocks in life and a series of unfortunate events that manifest so that you are forced to deal with the trauma.
For example, When I was a child, my parents divorced. It was a messy divorce and it left me feeling (as a 7 year old) that I was a pawn in this sick game my parents played of who could screw over who first. I grew up with lots of guilt trips placed upon me, feelings of having to choose sides, feelings of resentment and hatred towards my parents that I could never fully express. These unhealed traumas as a child, turned into blockages in life that forced me to seek enlightenment and wedge these traumas out in the open so that I could transfigure them to the Universe and clear the negative karma that I was holding.
The area of my life that finally broke the camels back was that I was part-time at work, fully broke, and miserable in life. I associated money with my dad because finances is associated with the masculine (left) hemisphere of the brain. Emotions are associated with the feminine (right) hemisphere of the brain. In order to be in our God states, we need balance over both hemispheres equally. I cleared up my Dad side and Mom side of the brain by 3 simple, but yet the most difficult steps. Once I able to bring forth my demons, transfigure them to God, I was able to unfold a life that is full of support and love from the Universe in ALL aspects of my life.
The steps that I will describe are simple. It is something that everyone can do and it cost nothing!!
Start with writing a letter to your mom and a letter to you dad. They don't need to be around or even in our earthly plain, it is the intent behind the letter that will start the healing rolling. I say start with each parent because they represent each hemisphere of your brain and we need both sides balanced.
This letter should be written as follows:
Step 1) Play the victim!! Write down all the things that you wanted to say as a child, but never got to say. In this section (which is the hardest), be raw, be vulnerable, be the kid you that was feeling the pain yo felt back then. Be sure to address all the things you felt were lost or taken from you. Play the victim.
Step 2) Play the perpetrator. Patterns repeat, so think about all the stuff that you were victim to and acknowledge that you behaved in the same way towards others...including yourself. For example, I was always made to feeling guilty about the divorce, while I knew it wasn't my fault, I was made to feel sorry for my parent because it happened to them. As an adult, I had placed such high expectations on myself that if I did not meet my expectations of myself, I would guilt myself into thinking I wasn't good enough. The trauma that I had experienced as a kid I was repeating on myself. Play the perpetrator.
Step 3) Find the reason. If your life had not played out they way it did, how different would you be? If you did not endure the traumas that you did, would you be as strong as you are now? Find the blessings and purpose in what you experience and understand that your life was meant to happen the way it did in order to make you who you are right now. Once you understand that NOTHING happens by chance, you'll appreciate the good and BAD experiences that you went through. Find the reason.
Wait!! There is a secret 4th step......Read it out loud to someone you trust.... this could be the person you wrote the letter to, a friend or family member, you counselor or spiritual leader/mentor. In Mathew 18:20, it says, "for where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the middle of them." This means that when you voice these letter out loud with the intention of God or the Universe to hear them, you are giving these emotions and their traumatic origins to God and allowing him to turn them into divinely necessary lessons that will serve your life.
Once you clear these traumas and turn the negative emotion into a more positive and understood experience, you will start to shift your life in a more positive direction. If you fully commit to the letter writing process and the transformation you will go through (it will be bumpy, persevere through), you will come out with a life you never thought you could have. I swear by this process because I did it and it all happened to me.
I was fortunate to have my friend and spiritual mentor Samantha Geiger at Holistic Light House in Roseville CA to walk me through her letter writing process and be there for my reading of the letters.
For a more detailed explanation, please visit her sight www.lifechanginginsights.com She can do phone and Skype sessions if you do not live locally.
I hope you find the strength and determination to overcome your traumas no matter how big or small. This process will work for you if you let it. Please take care of yourself and find your happy. I will end with a Spirit Guid Card reading for those of you to find the inspiration to work on yourselves.
This is the Psychic Awareness Card. It represents the Divine Soul.
(It is funny that this card fell out of the deck when I pulled. I asked for a card that would inspire all of you to work on yourselves and to find the ability to transfigure all of your demons and holdups and to help you create a life you love.)
The meaning of this card:
Your Divine Soul is awakening, and with it your psychic abilities are coming alive. More evolved an specific than basic intuition, your psychic faculties are giving you access to the fourth dimension and are coming into contact with discarnate, enlightened helpers who can assist and guide you in beautiful ways. You may start accessing Divine music or tap in to new healing energies. you also may receive telepathic messages and have clairvoyant visions.
Heed your newly aroused psychic faculties, and don't doubt the specific and profound transmissions flowing to you. Record your dreams, believe in your hunches, and accept symbols and signals being relayed to you from the psychic realm. Trust your vibes, and embrace your psychic channels fully; what they're communicating is essential to fulfilling your purpose. Ask your Divine Soul to lead you. It's message: "Embrace and trust what you receive."
This is from the oracle card deck Ask Your Guides, by Sonia Choquette.
From this card and the topic of this post. I feel that if you are reading this, You are exactly where you should be and have the support of the Universe/God to make the healthy needed changes to unfold a life that is greater than you could have ever imagined. Trust yourself and trust the process.
Life the intent of God and find happiness the smallest of things.

Oracle Card of the Day: April 23 2015
So, Ive been compelled to hold off on the How to deal with your Demons post that I said I would post next. I will definitely get into how to transfigure your traumas, emotions and any unresolved feelings that you have been hiding from and turn it into your gold to unfold a life greater than you could have ever imagined.
I feel like I need to pull a Spirit Guide card to help some folks out there in daily dilemmas or life changing situations. If this card resinates with you and you take something from it, then it was meant for you. If you cannot see how this card effects your current situation, please meditate on it and see if something comes to you or someone you know.
The deck I am using is Ask Your Guides by Sonia Choquette. I like this deck because of its simple yet influential messages. These are straight forward signs from your guides on how to interpret and manage the situations you find yourself in.
Are you ready?? Let's pull a card.
I have pulled the Life Force/Aphrodite card. This card represents Seduction, Libido, Sexuality, and Attraction.
Your sexuality is awake and on fire, and your lustier appetites are in search of satisfaction. You're attractive, seductive, and powerful, and a "green light" of availability to a sexual partner is flashing. This is what makes the world go' round, and nothing is more intriguing and exciting than your life force asserting itself. The Key to enjoying this fiery essence is containment. You must control and direct your life-force energy rather than allow it to control and overwhelm you. Otherwise, you can become mindlessly addicted to your senses, which can be debilitating and enslaving.
Delight in your sensual self, but be discriminating about where it leads you. Use your judgment. Raw life force is best partnered with reason and the greater force of love to bring to you the heightened state of ecstasy you seek. Trust the sensual goddess Aphrodite as she unleashes your passions, but respect her as well. Her message for you: "Use your fiery passion creatively, not destructively."
This can mean literally and figuratively. The sense I get when reading this card is that the seduction you have towards life and living in a purely happy space is awakened. In this day and age, many people are reaching a certain level of faith and spirituality that has awakened them to an energetic level of seeking and understanding. This card feels like it is conveying the message of using your passion for life and highest path to creatively get to know yourself intimately. Spend time meditating, playing music, and producing artwork. What ever it is that speaks to your soul, that is your seductive self.
This card is also tell you to do so in balance. If you become too manic is your spiritual path and attaining an enlightened state, you may at the same time hinder the destine path you are supposed to be on.
Take your time to get to know yourself and your abilities. We all have them. Practice honing your gifts(s) and play with them to practice their accuracy, but take care not to become so obsessed with using them that you actually manifest the wrong information out of anxiousness and want.
Please let me know if you enjoy these Oracle card readings and I will make them a regular posting.
Please take care of yourself and practice your gifts with open hearts and loving intention.

Heaven is not a destination but rather a state of consciousness.
There is a mega-church near my house and they have a very large and flamboyant banner in front that reads HEAVEN. Every time I drive by it forces me to ponder the meaning of heaven and is it really a place in the sky that a lot of people hope they go to after they die.
Heaven is a state of consciousness. It is a way to perceive your life and environment. Heaven is a state of knowing and accepting the things that are sometime hidden when you have closed your soul off to what the universe has to offer. Once you understand how the universe works and how every single thing you think and feel will materialize into your life, then you can start to create your own heaven on earth.
If heaven is a state of consciousness then why are there stories of people who have died, have seen heaven and then have been brought back to life? This, I feel, is because when our physical bodies have died, our souls are at their most enlightened states. At the soul level, you are aware of all the good, bad, life lessons and karma that you have been through and still need to go through in the next life. When you work though all the bad, appreciate all the good and balance out the karmic scales, your soul can achieve heaven. You don't have to wait until you die to achieve the heaven state that I am talking about. You can work to clear up the "garbage" that poisons your soul, rots your light, and keeps you from living the life that you want to have.
Are you living in a state of need or want? Are you hiding emotions deep down that you do not want to deal with? Do you spend too much time judging others? All of these feelings and actions are what darken the life force with in you. Imagine you have a bright light radiating from your body. This is your life force. Inside this light you are warm and at peace. In this light everything is calm and you are at peace with your self.
Now imagine that this light has big dark brown spots in it. They look like oil spills in your beautiful light moving around like a dirty Lava Lamp. These oil spill are all over your light and soon they start to leak into the rest of your light. Your physical body feels heavy and your energy is weak. You feel sad, angry and even sick. Your once light and energetic soul is now heavy and stagnant.
To turn this around, start your day by listing off all the things you are grateful for. This will force you to see the good in your life, if even for a few minutes. Then make a plan to help atlas one person that day. It can be holding a door open for some one. Letting someone who has 2 items go in front of you in the grocery line. It can be over tipping at a restaurant or buy a meal for a homeless person. Do at least one thing today to make someone else life a little easier.
Start living your life being grateful for everyday that you wake up. Thats step 1. Step 2 is to resolve any emotions that you may be holding back. This is the tricky part. You hid them for a reason. You have to look your "demons" straight in the eye and tell them that they are not gonna rule your life anymore. When you start living your life with out the fear, then life will get a whole lot easier.
For example, you are broke and barely living paycheck to paycheck. Debt collectors are calling and your can barely afford gas or food. Sound familiar? Lets take a look at where your judgements are. Are you envious of someone who makes more than you? Do you speak poorly about your current job? Do you judge your bosses and co-workers? When our life force is muddied with anger and judgements it tends to spill over into our lives. We are NEVER in a situation by accident. There is something that you are supposed to learn from the current situation. It is your job to figure out what that thing is?
Is that co-worker that you hate so much really teaching how to love unconditionally...or at least understand conditionally? Is that boss who keeps giving you work really teaching you to push yourself just a little further? Is your insufficient paycheck teaching you how to budget and spend sparingly? In every bad or hard situation, there is a positive life changing lesson with in it. Once you start seeing these positive lessons and acknowledging them and accepting them, your life will start to shift to match your new thoughts. What you think will materialize in your life so why not make what you think positive instead of negative??
There is a process that you need to go through to clean up all the karmic baggage that keeps you from living the heaven on earth state that you could be living. We will talk about this next time. For now, your homework is to make a list of all the things you are grateful for and to do nice things for other people. Thats all. Notice how your life shifts just be doing your homework I just gave you and comment on if you see the shift.
Until then, be nice to your fellow creatures and take care of yourself.

Intuition is more than just your instinct.
Everyone can be intuitive. You just have to be willing to open yourself up to perceiving the world in a much different form than the way you have been taught. Intuition is a knowing or a feeling about your environment and other people around you.
Intuition can come to you as a feeling, a thought, a smell or taste, and even as a noise or song. Have you ever been thinking of a random song on the radio while driving and then you change the channel and that very song is on? It is kinda like that. Sometimes when I have an issue, I will go for a walk. I ask for answers or a start of a resolution. Sometime during my walk, and idea will POP into my head and i get chills all over my body. I then feel really excited because I know that the idea was divinely placed and that it is my intuition giving me a starting place to resolve or deal with my issue. For example, I am at the start of writing a book, but I have moved into a new job and have no time at this point in the year to continue writing. I felt awful that I had to put my book on the back burner so to speak. I was getting the urge to write but couldn't find time to do it.
I went for a walk and asked for help with the urges to write and wether or not writing the book was for my highest at this point. During the walk I had an A-HA moment....why don't I write a blog?! I could meet the urge to write while at the same time helping to organize the outline of my book. I got chills and knew that just as I had asked for answers, I was given the answers.
Intuition works in a way that will make sense to you. While I need visuals and ideas for grasp that the Universe (or God for some people) was giving me what I need and request in order to keep me on my soul's highest path. For others, you may have dreams or get feelings, you may even hear "something" talking to you. It is all the same. It is just in different mediums that are dependent on the individual.
Once you realize that you can talk with the Universe (God) and it will answer you, you can start to practice. Ask for a solution to a problem or issue. Ask in a general open-ended format. Such as, "I ask that you guide me to financial security when it is in your divine timing when it is in my highest good."If you ask specific questions like "when will I get a job that pays me more money so I won't be broke", the energy behind it is out of need and want and not of your highest good and may lead to manifestations instead of a divine unfolding. Once you ask stop worrying about it. Completely give it to the Universe and know that it was heard and it will be answered. This is where the practice comes in......have patience and let go.
Go about your life and know that when it is the correct moment, you will experience and consciously observe that your question is being answered. You may start to see that more job opportunities pop up around you or that you keep having this urge to start your own business. You will see that life will shift to support you instead of working against you. Usually when it seems that life is totally against you and everything is wrong, that is when you need your faith and complete understanding of the universal energies that create your conscious environment the most.
If your life is negative, your thoughts are too negative. You are what you think. Once you realize this, you can use your intuition and understanding to help create a life for yourself greater than you could have ever imagined.
Go for a walk. Ask your questions. Just wait. It is kinda fun when yo get the hang of it. Take care of your self and each other.

What it means to be an Empath from an Empath
Being an Empath is tough. You are ultra-sensitive to other people's energy, attitudes, and company. It is like a big ball of emotions, anxiety and confusion inside your body. Sometime you find yourself angry and don't know why. Other times you find your self at the brink of tears and again, you don't know why.
When you are an empath you feel and sense others energy and emotions. That is a lot to take on. If someone is deeply sad or angry, it seems to make or break your entire personality. You may not even be acting like your self. Almost like you are someone else and in a way you are. I thought I had something seriously wrong with me. I felt almost Bi-polar and maybe like I was suffering from anxiety and depression. I was put on medications and they helped a little but I hated being on the meds. So I decided I rather live with the emotions and anxiety rather than feel numb to the world. That is when I started to do some research.
Western medicine is great, don't get me wrong, but sometimes there are things out side the scope of understanding and proof. I was reading about the gift of Empathy and it started to make sense. I started to read about the signs and symptoms of what it meant to be an empath and better yet, how to protect yourself.
I was at work. I worked in a hospital and sometimes things got stressful. One day I started to feel really angry and I had no idea where it was coming from. I was pissed at everything and everyone. I was a little taken back because I had no just cause for how I was feeling. I was just feeling it. So I went on a little break, took a couple deep breaths and really focused on why I was feeling they way I was. Going outside had helped because I was no longer in that environment or around those co-corkers, so I had a bit more clarity. As I sat quietly and focused on my breathing I started to get a sense or knowing that one of my co-workers was having a hard time. I was visualizing that she was having home problems with her husband. That night I even had a dream in which she told me she and her husband were splitting. I didn't put two and two together yet. After going back to work a few days later and speaking with her, she told me that she was having problems at home and was angry at her life, her job and just pretty much hated the world. That's when I knew.......not only can I see and sense things about people but I was an Empath and could feel other people's energy.
This can be a blessing and a curse. A blessing because you can sense people and their motives before they are obvious to others. A curse because if you do not know how to protect yourself, you can be overcome with so many emotions that you can literally feel crazy. How you choose to deal with your gift is totally up to you. Learning a basic protection method will help you appreciate your gift more and will help you want to use it.
Step 1: Find yourself a quite place. Indoors or outside, it doesn't really matter as long as you feel at peace and won't be distracted.
Step 2: Close your eyes and take slow steady breaths. Take 20 breaths.
Step 3: As you are breathing, start to visualize your heart space. Imagine there is a purple or blue tornado swirling around your heart. As you are seeing this tornado swirl around your heart focus on which direction it is turning. I always remember Righty Tighty, Lefty Loosy. When your heart tornado is spinning left (counterclockwise) you are open and susceptible to psychic attack. Now visualize your heart tornado changing direction. It is spinning right (clockwise) and you will gradually start to feel that open door into your higher self start to close. Notice how you start to feel peaceful and calm. Less stressed.
Step 4: Slowly come back into your self and you environment. This may take a few times to practice and really visualize but once you get comfortable with it, you will now control your own space and when and where you decide to be open.
I hope that you find some peace within and see your gift as a blessing rather than a curse. The gift was given to you, so there is a purpose for it. The fun part is finding what that purpose is.

Manifesting vs Unfolding: Creating life for your highest good.
With all the books and articles about Manifesting and creating the life you have always wanted, I am not surprised that people are still unhappy, poor, and still living in a state of fear and want. If we really look at what manifesting means, we may see an opportunity to really be specific about our wants and desires.
We are taught that to manifest something, we have to feel and believe that we have that "something." If you desire to be rich, to manifest wealth, you have to truly believe and feel that you are already rich...right? Then you hope and wish, and maybe even pray that the Universe will make you rich. You can't understand why when you are doing everything you are supposed to, that you are still not rich.
Unfolding, is different from Manifesting because when you ask the Universe for "something" you are asking that this "something" be given to you ONLY if it is in your highest good. That's the difference, you are leaving it up to God or the Universe to give you only what is right for you to have at this moment in your life. You understand that when you ask the Universe for support, you have to be open to releasing the request and waiting for divine timing to occur....ONLY if its in God's perfect plan.
Have you ever had one of those moments, when something occurs and you realize that if it had happened any other way you would not have the most perfect outcome? We do not happen upon opportunities by chance. They are divinely placed on our paths at the right moment for us to receive the lesson or gifts from that opportunity. To make sure that these opportunities are positive we must maintain a healthy relationship with the Universe. That means understanding that nothing is a coincidence and that we are all connected to one another.
Manifesting, is asking (desperately) for support from the universe, but remember that to manifest you must feel and believe for that "thing". So when you are asking for financial support because you are desperate for money, you are putting desperation out to the Universe. Anything you put out to the Universe will come back to you like a boomerang. So if you put out that you are desperate for money, then in return you will receive more opportunities to feel desperate. If you ask for a boyfriend/girlfriend because you are scared to be alone, then you will attract more opportunities to be alone. In order to assure that you only attract that which is for your highest good, you must really understand why you want what you want and ask for it in a way that leaves the answer and endless possibility.
Take a look at what you want and why. Are you seeking more money or a better job? Maybe you really are seeking security and sustainability rather than actual money. Are you seeking a relationship? Maybe you are really seeking stability and companionship. When you really look at the fundamental emotion behind your asking, then you can re-word your questions to unfold what is for you highest good. Instead of asking for more money, ask the Universe to send your the financial support so that you may continue on your life path. Instead of asking for a relationship, ask the Universe to strengthen the relationship you have with your self so that you may attract a healthy partner when the time is right.
The thing with unfolding is you have to let it go once you ask. You have asked the Universe for the support, now you must be patient and let the Universe to conspire to make it happen. The less you try and control the outcome, the faster it happens. Instead of asking and asking and re-asking. sit on it. Go for a walk. Get in touch with nature. Meditate. Center yourself and let the answers to your questions come to you. I wanted to write a book, like really bad. I was feeling the need to let Spirit come through my fingers and get very important information across. I was way too busy with my new, high paying job that I barely got laundry done some days. I went for a walk at the local bike trails and had a total epiphany.....why not write a blog. I could write shorter article about the information that came to me, but I didn't have to sit for long periods of time to dedicate to a book. I asked that I would be allowed to write and put my information out there and I let the idea come to me. It really is that simple.
I was feeling stressed at my new job because I wasn't feeling supported by my management. I asked the Universe that I please find the support and backing that I needed to feel secure at my new job. Literally two days later, A new manager was hired and completely made me feel supported and encouraged. I felt a wave of relief and excitement as I knew that my request was answered. I also got the feeling that the reason I am at this job is because if have so much to learn from my new manager that I will take with me to my next phase when it is the right time. Once you realize that you don't have to be religious or a prophet to talk with the Universe and to hear the Universe to talk back, you can play with the gift of knowing that what you want is possible if you know how to ask for it.
Remember, in the beginning you were asking to be rich? Look at your life. Look at your wife/husband. Look at your kids. Look at your health, your job, your family. Look at all the things you have. A house, food in your pantry, a car, and education. You are far richer than a lot of people out in the world. You just have to see past the stress and frustration and truly be grateful for all that the Universe has bestowed upon you. Ask from a neutral place, be patient and wait for the signs and answers that you seek, be grateful for what you already have, and understand that we are made love and soon you will be unfolding a life greater than you could ever imagine.
Play with the unfolding and let me know what you create. Take care of your self and go for a walk to center yourself to the Universe's energy.

The Soul Mate or Twin Flame: Finding our Spiritual Relationships
When we express our desire to find the person that we are meant to be with, we talk about finding our Soul Mate. We search out all the books, websites, and blogs to learn about characteristics of soul mates, how to find them and most importantly how to keep them. What these resources DON'T tell us is that we shouldn't stop our search at the should mate level. We should move beyond the soul mate and seek the ultimate in spiritual partnership, Twin Flames.
What is the difference between Soul Mates and Twin Flames?
Your soul mate(s) come in all different relationships and partnerships. They can be your friend or family member, they can be your boss or co-worker, at times even complete strangers. A soul mate is a person whose soul is contracted to connect with your soul in this life time to help you grow and move towards ascension. They come into your life and out of your life to teach you lessons about yourself and to help clear up any karmic baggage that you have carried with you from one life time to another. Have you ever noticed a pattern in the people you meet or form relationships with? If you do, then you are probably not learning your lessons and will be tested with the same situations and types of people until you become aware of what it is you are supposed to learn.
Soul mates can teach you about patience, love, loss, and letting go. The souls mate acts as the homework of life to prime you for the ultimate in spiritual relationships, the Twin Flame.
The Twin Flame relationship is the re-connection of two halves of one soul. In the beginning, our souls were one. When our souls descended to earth, they split into two halves with the purpose of finding each other again through lifetimes of lessons and karmic teachings. When you begin to become "aware" of the universe, how it works, and let go of the earthly egos that hold so many people back, then you start to move through ascension and towards finding your twin flame.
Twin Flame characteristics will mirror your own characteristics with room for individuality. You may like pizza and your twin flame does not, but you will be compatible on every level. While no relationship is perfect, the twin flame relationship will be perfect in the sense that you have found the finish line. You will share similar feeling on raising children, morals, dreams and passions (you both want to help people or you both want to make a difference), you will just know what the other is feeling or thinking, there is more than just chemistry when you are intimate, and you will know that this relationship was written in the stars. There really is no relationship like the twin flam relationship.
There is also a Twin Flame Counterfeit, this is a person whom you feel is your twin flame but there is just one problem, they fall short on some level. You two could be perfect on every aspect of your being except that they don't want children and you do, or you love each other but they are married, or there is an issue between you two that you cannot just seem to repair. The twin flame counterfeit, or imposter, is actually a higher level soul mate. They are usually the last step before you meet your twin flame. The twin flame counterfeit relationship is usually the hardest lesson to learn because you think that they are your other half and when that expectation is fractured, it can be the hardest and emotional test you will ever experience. That also means that the soul you are supposed to connect with is really close....like really close.
So what lessons are your supposed to learn from your soul mates in order to find your twin flame?? Look at the patterns in your relationships, romantic or otherwise. Do you find yourself in co-dependent relationships? Are you always looking for someone to make you feel complete or whole? Do you need validation and acceptance from your mate to feel worthy? Do you choose partners who treat you poorly? Do you mistake sex for love?
All these things are lessons that we must conquer to move up the consciousness levels of the universe. When we live out of fear, need, guilt, depression, or shame we block the energy inside all of us to really see life for what it is, beautiful. If you are constantly worrying about money, or having a boyfriend/girlfriend, and feeding the ego's need to be in control then you are living a lower level lifestyle. Once we realize that God or the Universe (what ever you are more comfortable with) will provide everything that we need and once we start doing the soul work that we actually came here (earth/lifetime) to do, then we can create and unfold anything that we desire that is for our highest good. We don't want to manifest things into existence because manifestation is a level of need and when you create out of need it may or may not be what is best for you. We will talk about manifestation vs unfolding next post, but for now to get this consciousness ball started, spend some time in silence with yourself. Right now as I channel and write, I'm listening to a Chillwave station on Pandora, thats how I can get away and meditate. Getting outside for a walk is perfect, about a half an hour into your walk you will really start to get answers from your self. Thats the universe speaking to you by the way.
Once you find your inner voice talking to you, then start to really focus on the things you desire in life. Do you want a good paying job and a house and a new car? Then you are probably feeling that you want more security. Do you desire a relationship that is healthy and happy? Then you need to start loving yourself first. Remember you attract what you focus on. If all you think about is being alone and not having a relationship, then guess what...you won't have a relationship.
Say affirmations like "the universe will provide me with everything I need" or "the love I give myself will satisfy me until God decides to introduce the person He wants me to be with, when it is right". Saying positive affirmations will help you keep your thoughts focused on the right things. If all you think is negative thoughts then all you will get in return are experiences that reflect those thoughts. When you really understand this concept, then you are ready to start moving up through ascension and you will find your self closer to finding your Twin Flame.
Until next time, take care of your self and practice self-love.
