EDITCOPYPROOF NEWSROOM
  the insider story of my personal metamorphosis

ButterflyMetamorphosis
When I look back on my New Year's declaration to "allow the inner guiding wisdom of each moment to guide me," (instead of imposing my will/desire/personal agenda on each moment) I had no idea what this bold pronouncement meant; it simply came out of my mouth. In retrospect, it was indeed prophetic. This year has been a year of great silence, introspection, deep healing, tuning into the true desires of my heart, and taking only inspired action.

What did that look like in my everyday life?
  1. unplugging from my "story"
  2. obliterating long-held beliefs that no longer serve my highest interest
  3. opening my heart to the goodness of which I am wholly deserved
  4. moving from my head to operating completely from heart
  5. becoming conscious of every thought and achieving mind-mastery (my thoughts no longer rule my life)
  6. learning how to channel divine entities
  7. attracting a local tribe of heart-based women; my support grid
  8. traveling
  9. moved from believing, hoping, praying and trusting to KNOWING (what a colossal difference THIS has made in every aspect of my life)
  10. making peace with--and being grateful for--the process of getting here, while moving beyond, into uncharted dimensions
  11. celebrating the wonder and magic of being God's expression on Earth, in the ways I decide, and that bring me joy
  12. fiercely and willingly surrendering my tiny plan to the Universe-sized collective co-creation we are all experiencing right now
  13. ocean-side bike riding
  14. taking long naps
  15. eating only what my body desires (and losing 20 pounds in the process)
  16. inventing more ways to have fun
  17. being creative: making jewelry, baking, cooking, writing
  18. allowing my glorious self to simply BE

The results? A calm, loving BEing ready to make my unique contribution to humanity's evolution. Micro/macro, you know? We have to BE the changes within ourselves (micro)--to personally know true freedom--before we can even hope to support and serve others (macro). What we heal (micro), energetically reverberates as a magnetizing vibration for others to heal more easily and quickly (macro).


"Beloved one, when you take to heart
that you are free to be that which you are,
totally free to be the divine holy extension
of the one Creator, totally and completely
free to be, just to be, then all of the shackles
of the world fall off. They have to. No longer
do you need certain pieces to fall into place to
make you happy. No longer do you need a
relationship, [career, project or experience] that is
perfect to make you happy... You are totally and
completely free in the power of the Now, the
power of the moment, to know that you
are free; totally free."
~ Jeshua Ben David


In that freedom-of-being, I give myself permission to tell you that the original intent of this weekly newsletter has served its full purpose; it is complete. It too, shall morph into the fullness of a new and ever-unfolding becoming; whatever that means. Time will tell.

Honestly, I see no particular structure. What DO I know?

I am here to serve humanity during these evolutionary times. And that requires me to be highly attuned to the messages that are vital to deliver NOW. These are timely messages that touch your heart because they are meant JUST for you, JUST for now.
That misson/purpose cannot be held in an arbitrary delivery day, date or time (say Thursdays at 10 AM Pacific... how mundane is that?!), or surely we will all miss the point of this experience! The point is to be IN THE MOMENT in all moments. You see how important adaptation is during these times.

So, what does this mean regarding this publication? In part, it means the format of this delivery will change. I feel it's more important to connect on a more frequent basis with smaller "bites." What's the frequency? Hmmmm...

Time is a funny thing, you know? Some say it is an illusion. Some say that time and space are "bending" in response to the current evolutionary shift. What's the bottom line about when you'll get your stuff from EditCopyProof? You'll receive insights as they come to me. Even though it is unconventional, can you trust this? That all things have their perfect moment? That to force my will or egoic agenda onto the next moment, changes the outcome for us all?

If this is too esoteric for you, I bless you to unsubscribe. No publication is for everyone, yet the audience for this unique message eagerly anticipates this content and I am whole-heartedly committed to delivering.

Never has there been such opportunity to consciously create our collective future. We cannot get to where we're going by taking roads already taken. We must step out, step up, and do everything differently! So, I press on with the words of Joan of Arc reverberating in every cell of my being, "I am not afraid. I was born for this."

In summary, you'll receive content containing one divinely-inspired message that you can apply to your life RIGHT NOW. As quickly as the information comes to me and I capture the content in a pleasing format, it will be delivered to you. Done and done.

It may pertain to business or your personal life.

It may be a resource, a channeled message straight from an Archangel or Ascended Master, or an inspiration sparked by simple living. Who knows? Isn't this exciting?!

From my heart to yours, will you join me on this extraordinary, ever-unfolding journey? I would be delighted to share your company.


PERSONAL EMPOWERMENT
  The Magic of Metamorphosis

By what kind of magic is a caterpillar transformed into a butterfly? Natural magic, of course; nature simply acting in alignment with its encoded caterpillar nature.

This very same magic is what transforms us by our divine human nature. But before we explore the process of personal transformation, let's take a closer look at the caterpillar-to-butterfly metamorphosis:

Building the Cocoon

1. A caterpillar, when it is fully grown, secretes a long stream of liquid from its glands, called the spinneret, located below its mouth. The liquid stiffens, forming a silk-like thread which is used to attach its hind end to a twig or leaf. The caterpillar spins the silky thread around its body to form a covering. This outside layer hardens to form a shell called a chrysalis.

The Transformation Process

2. Inside the cocoon the caterpillar changes into a pupa. In a process called histolysis, the caterpillar digests itself from the inside out, causing its body to die. During this partial death, some of the caterpillar's old tissues are salvaged to form new. This remnant of cells are called the histoblasts and are used to create a new body. Using its digestive juices, the caterpillar turns his old larval body into food which he uses to rebuild its new body.

Breaking Out of the Shell

3. Once the pupa has fully grown inside the cocoon, and the butterfly is ready to emerge, the insect releases a fluid which softens the shell. The butterfly pushes on the walls of the shell until it breaks open. The process of a caterpillar turning into a butterfly can take anywhere from 10 days to several months


What can we learn from this incredible transformation? How can we apply these lessons to our lives?

There are three prominent aspects to any transformation; those elements that make the process as easy as possible:
  1. A caterpillar, when it is fully grown... spins the silky thread around its body to form a covering.

    We must be willing to respond when prompted, even--and especially when--we don't feel ready. There is a subtle prompting in us, letting us know that we're in for an upcoming leap of growth. It starts out rather quietly and becomes a roar if we don't move ahead and take action steps. Change doesn't have to catch us by surprise. We can respond when the prompting is a mere whisper. We can welcome change and embrace the coming opportunities that sure lie ahead. That is a choice. When you view change as a catalyst for growth, it is your ally.

  2. The caterpillar digests itself.

    We must be willing to be an active part of the process of evolution. We must be willing to trust the process of life to guide us; to rely on our divine nature. We must be willing to do the things that might at first seem unmanageable, overwhelming or unthinkable. We must be willing to move beyond comfort, familiarity and safety to experience something completely foreign and new to us; something greater. We have to be willing to let go of everything we know, if necessary, to be transformed. In doing so, we find ourselves always on the precipice of enjoying the maximum growth opportunities life has to offer.

  3. The butterfly pushes on the walls of the shell until it breaks open.

    Bursting through is always the result of persistence. The shell of resistance can be so strong that it's easy enough to lose momentum or hope. But, unless you remain motivated and consistently push past what you were, you will never become! No matter how many times you have to "talk yourself down" and reignite the flame within, do it. All your efforts will pay off; the new you will burst forth, given time and patience.


If this sounds like work, it really isn't. You see, we are born prepared for this life. We are fully-equipped. The beautiful process of transformation can be full of ease when we relax into the guidance that comes from within. When we trust that, we will know exactly what to do in every moment. We can count on it absolutely and then find ourselves responding with the next perfect action to propel the process.

We didn't come here to stagnate. Instead, we came for the fun of it; for the joy of it; for the expansion of it; for the growth of it; for the contrast in it; for the desire-producing value in it.

Just like the caterpillar, who responds to life's beckoning to evolve and become more--and does its part to bring about the natural and inevitable outcome--so, too, are you beckoned to become. How will you respond? (Therein lies the magic!)

From the Editor's Desk
charlon bobo   Joyful flow is found by embracing the element of uncertainty

Stream
Instead of surrendering to the flow of life, you protect yourselves from the whole experience. You have therefore come to consider yourselves co-creators with God, and instead of accepting life, you try to change it. ~Liz Mitten Ryan


I was deeply moved to read the full excerpt from The Truth According To Horses: A Handbook To Life.

It's true that we try to change/control life instead of flowing with it, wherever it leads. We think that control gives us some measure of security. Deepak Chopra says,

Embracing the wisdom of uncertainty
not only frees you from the illusion of control,
it puts you right in the middle
of the joyful flow of cosmic creativity.


I invite you into the joyful flow of cosmic creativity. C'mon, it's fun!

Celebrating You Because We ARE All One,
