Does it shake your inner Peace to see it's getting crazy out there?

Just as we enter the Holy Days in which our souls are trying to remind us that Peace on Earth begins with "me," it seems each week we learn about one violent incident after another! More notably, this violence is unprovoked and being caused by those who should be exemplifying Peace.

As a non-TV owner, I do my best to detach from the darkness of the news. Yet, hearing about some stories cannot be avoided. For years I have grappled with my desire to encompass myself with simplicity and peacefulness, while remaining aware of what is going on just enough for me to make clear and aligned choices for my life and my family.

In 2004, my father's youngest brother - who was just five years older than me - was shot in the back and killed by a plain-clothes state officer. My uncle was unarmed. He was Hispanic. He had a mustache, as did the Hispanic man the officer was seeking, though my uncle was several inches shorter than the parolee.

I remember telling someone in my community about the incident. She was a white, well-to-do mom who simply asked me, "Why was he running?" From her frame of reference, she couldn't even conceive of how this kind of situation would not be my uncle's fault. I saw she was completely clueless, and it made me feel as if she had no compassion.

One of the most valuable aspects of my work - of connecting deeply with others in sessions with them - is I get to experience them in such a way that my compassion and understanding of their limitations (and their unwavering true essence) grows. Personally, I grew up with many human struggles. My family was laced with teen pregnancies, numerous abuses, mental illnesses and addictions, and poverty. In the last decade, I've lost two of my closest cousins to suicide. As a married mother of four, I endured six years of a painful separation from my then-self-destructive husband. As much as I wish I didn't have the heaviness in my biography, it seems these hardships have helped me relate to my clients and compassionately hold space for them.

More importantly, however, I trust that my experiences have encouraged me to strive dauntlessly for Peace... in the world, in my family, in me.

As we approach the season when we try to sway from the heavily-hyped consumerism and re-kindle our inner light with the true Spirit of the Holy Days, I invite you to welcome in compassion and understanding. From situations you hear on the news, to the person who took your parking spot, to the homeless person at the street corner, take the time to bring them in to your heart. If you can do this for each person, whether "victim" or "aggressor," and feel (or imagine) his or her story, challenges, feelings, fears, hopes and dreams - even for a moment - then you will be creating Peace. It may not always be easy, but it's one of the most courageous acts you can do. With consciousness and loving actions, we can all become Peace on Earth.

With Love and Blessings,

CARING FOR YOU

Give Yourself Space

Of course, the clients who are most attracted to my work - people like YOU - tend to be quite sensitive.

Whether you are emotionally sensitive, or psychically or energetically sensitive - or all of the above! - it is important to not only recognize your sensitivity, but to honor it. A simple way to do so is to give yourself space.

When you are emotionally sensitive, people's harsh words and emotions can affect you so deeply you want to withdraw, closing your heart. Energetic or psychic sensitivity is harder to recognize (as we don't really validate this in our world); therefore, can be harder to protect.

Sure, you can repeatedly stay in contact with those who hurt your feelings or whose anger pokes into you, but why? To preserve your need to feel good - to allow unfiltered JOY into your life - it is best to distance yourself from these kinds of people! In doing so, your need to guard yourself from their harshness, as well as joy, dissolves.

When it comes to psychic and energetic overload, just like with people, you need to create distance. Avoid going into overly busy or mis-aligned spaces (i.e. malls, crowds). As well, carve out a space in your own home where you can enjoy a personal retreat with an open heart. Daily space for the sensitive soul is as necessary as air! Take long, cleansing breathes of that simple, sacred space you've created... just for you.

AWAKENING

Re-Configuration of the Brain

As a non-astrologer, I have no idea what's happening in the sky unless a full moon illuminates my dark woods at night. Yet, as a sensitive soul myself, I feel energetic influences that touch my own life, as well as collectively. Similar to the ebb and flow of the tide, shifts are constantly taking place under these influences!

The most recent pattern I have noticed in several of my clients is a sort of "re-configuring" of the brain. In our expansion process, it is important we learn to "understand" the world in a whole new way. For some, that understanding will be as simple as learning to view others with compassion. For others, they will see themselves in a profoundly deeper way. Many are trying to bring more light into their bodies which opens them up exponentially. This light affects every part of the body, including the brain - which is where the current shift is happening for many people.

Brains are incredibly powerful tools in the human body and our relation with our brain is immeasurable. Yet, if we want to evolve to the degree that we can consciously and lovingly affect our lives and our world in amazingly powerful ways, we must be able to bring an entirely new level of effectiveness in to our awareness; into our brains.

If you notice head tingling, movement, confusion, new interesting thoughts and other "different" experiences, focus your awareness and welcome the expansion of your brain's capacity. Trust that your soul is working on your human behalf to help you activate new, powerful areas of your incredible brain.

SACRED LIVING

You are a Mystic!

What does it mean to be a mystic?

Some imagine yogis sitting in meditation for hours on end, or think of mystics as Christ-like people who have extraordinary powers to heal, predict the future, or travel into other realms. Though these are examples of mysticism, a mystic is simply "a person who seeks by contemplation and self-surrender to obtain unity with or absorption into the Deity or the absolute, or who believes in the spiritual apprehension of truths that are beyond the intellect."

When we believe mysticism is reserved for a chosen few, or for those willing to give up all earthly pleasures, we disconnect from our inner mysticism which can be a powerful link to create the lives we desire. By discovering and embracing the mystic we were born to be, we align with authenticity, empowerment and joy.

Contemplation and Self-Surrender

Meditation can be a form of contemplation, but it is not the only path to unity consciousness. Many mystics use a variety of methods to surrender their egoic limitations and allow for absorption into the absolute. Yoga, spiritual study groups, conscious breathwork, fasting, and dance are all valid actions a mystic can consciously utilize with intention to achieve a spiritual quest. Again, these are not the only methods one can use.

If your intention is to experience oneness, then do so in your daily endeavors. While washing dishes, become completely mindful of your task. Feel the plate, notice the soapy sponge as it makes contact to remove the grease, experience the heat of the water. Don't limit yourself by believing a mystical experience of oneness with the Divine has certain qualities, or wait for it to happen to you spontaneously. Instead, cultivate a practice of seeking oneness with the mundane tasks you perform each day. Allow absorption into the present moment.

As well, seek wonder. By opening yourself to the marvels... Read More
