“I got this.”

“I don’t need anyone’s help.”

“It’s weak (or embarrassing) to ask for help.”

“I can’t rely on anyone.”

I worked very hard to be self-sufficient and took great pride in paying my own way so that I would never need anything from you. If I needed your help that might give you the upper hand, which is something I couldn’t afford emotionally.

That was then, this is now…

Even though I have since allowed that façade to fall, it seems that when a person makes great change, a few energy remnants can get stuck behind and need a little clearing out.

Recently, the angels saw a big opportunity with me. My laptop, my lifeline to the world, began to fail. With no way to replace it, I began to worry and then heard the angels speak to me in the familiar whisper. Ask for help on the blog. 

What? You mean publicly? Shudder. No one said that following guidance was comfortable. Ninety percent of the time when I follow angel guidance, I find myself in the stretch zone.

Why do I have to keep revealing things about my life on such a public level?? I whined to the angels. Even as I fussed, I could feel something stirring within my spirit. I could feel Wisdom waiting in the wings, promising to reveal its wonder to me if only I was willing to do my part…take the first step.

My instructions were simple: Ask for help, be honest about why you need help and honor the free will of the reader. 

The angels have a great sense of humor. They teased that I wasn’t allowed to “qualify” my donors. There would be no asking donors to prove they could afford to help me (smile). I was encouraged to avoid making comments like “You shouldn’t have,” or “That’s too generous.”

Instead, they told me to focus on my feelings. Treasure the gift and allow yourself to feel honored and grateful. My mission was to “Receive with grace.” Grace defined as: Fully present, smile on my face,thank you on my lips and an open heart.

Focus on the Feelings

The first donation showed up in my Paypal account within moments of the posting. It was from a kindred spirit, a woman who has walked a mile in my shoes, and then some. Although my reflex was to worry about her finances, I remembered my instructions and turned toward my feelings. I could feel her strong sense of understanding and I was overwhelmed with gratitude. The  tears of a heart that had been “touched” welled up into my eyes.

The second donation came from a dear author friend of mine whose friendship and emotional support has been priceless. Since we found each other a couple years ago, it’s like we’ve been floating down the same river, experiencing the same things, only at different times. He certainly knows what I’m going through because his raft has already traveled these rapids. He’s been a role model for grace and now he’s floating in much calmer waters, which gives me hope that I will soon be, too.

I paused to let myself feel. There was such sincerity and thoughtfulness in his gift. My heart again began to fill with love and gratitude.

Next, I received a voice mail from a gal who has attended my Sacred Circles. She’s dear to me, a true light in this world. Her message said she wanted to contribute. I was really tested when I went to meet her in person. As she handed me cash, she began explaining why she didn’t have as much as she’d like to give me. “The holidays are coming,” she said. “Maybe after I get paid again, I could give more.”

My eyes watered as I held back what I wanted to say. Are you kidding me? You’re helping me and you feel like you aren’t giving me enough?  

Ah.Ah.Ah…the angels whispered in my ear. Receive it with grace. Honor the gift by telling her what her help means to you.  

As I stood there with her trying not to cry, I remembered that I’d been told to feel. I could feel that she genuinely cares about me and cares that I need a computer. Why? Because that’s who she is.

Like feathers floating gently down in the air, the angel’s wisdom began to land in my thoughts as I drove home that day.

When a person makes the choice to give, their gift is charged with the energy of love. They give love, but they can also receive that same love charge in return, if the recipient receives the gift with grace, rather than discounting the gift with comments like “You shouldn’t have.”  

Gifts received with joy boomerang feelings of joy.

If you are the person receiving and your head is busy being embarrassed that you need help, busy qualifying the donor’s finances, or simply moving through the process too quickly, than you are experiencing it with your mind. Receiving is a process for your FEELINGS, not your mind.   

What a shame it would be to miss such a divine feeling of: Community. Oneness. Connection.

Since the money I was given was for the purchase of a tangible item, it was obvious to me that my new laptop would have more meaning than any other computer before. Attached to it would be warm feelings of the community that helped buy it. Every time I pick it up to use it, those memories will be available to me.   

Lastly, I was asked once again to return to my feelings. What do you feel about having asked for help so publicly? Thinking back to my old “I don’t need you” self, I saw what a prison I had lived in before, so limited and cut off from the emotions that make life worth living. My recent post had been a public declaration that I’m willing to let people all the way into my life. And the way to do that is to be honest.

I also felt free. Free from any judgments about my worth as a person. Perhaps this was my biggest lesson of all. To even write the post, I had to face my own worth. I had to face the question of “Who do you think you are to trouble others?” I had to ask myself if I was ashamed. I had to ask myself if I deserved help.

In recognizing that I am truly deserving, I set myself free in ways that are still being revealed.  

Divine Timing 

The rest of the money I needed showed up through an early Christmas gift and an unexpected refund check that arrived in the mail. (Interesting…a random check arrived.) Three hundred dollars came together right before Thanksgiving.

On Thanksgiving day, I sat with friends and family purusing the many sales ads. Hey! My mind yelled in excitement. You have enough money to buy a computer!

There were so many computers for sale under $300 that I was overwhelmed with options. Thanks to a family friend who did some on-the-spot ”Consumer Reports” research, by the end of the day the only thing left for me to do was set my alarm clock for 2:50 am, Cali time. The online sale would begin at 6 am, eastern standard time and I would be there.

Early morning, Black Friday, I rolled out of bed and headed to my old failing computer. It was my habit to hope it wouldn’t act up, but this morning I had a little feeling that things would be just fine. I was ready to win me the laptop lottery. Did I get one? Of course I did.

By now we all know that it was divinely arranged, right?

Peace & Love~

Kim

Peace & Love to you~

How do you feel when you need help? Vulnerable? Embarrassed? I’m talking about big help, the kind that requires another person to truly give of themself, maybe even go out of their way. 

When you ask for help do you feel awkward? Is there a voice that reminds you of the inconvenience you’re causing? Or worse, a voice that says, What makes you think anyone will help you?

I know that voice. When it talks to me it says, You’re not worthy of help. You don’t deserve it. You need to sacrifice first. And if you have nothing to give in return, well then, forget about it. 

Who let that voice back in?

Years ago I made huge progress in finding my own worth. A few years were spent in the state of “I am worthy!” bliss. I stopped looking outside of myself for others to validate me, started saying “no” more often and put into practice some very loving and nurturing self-care activities. Life awarded me the Medal of Self-Worth and I thought it was a lifetime achievement thing. Mine forever. Little did I know…

In the last couple years, long time physical symptoms turned into a “situation.” The bottom of my world fell out, my medal was revoked and the critical voice returned with vengeance.

A new layer in my quest for self worth was revealed. This layer would teach me about what happens inside my mind when I can’t do anything for you. Turns out that if I need a little TLC from you and don’t know when (or if) I’ll be able to reciprocate, being me becomes unbearable. Without something to offer, I’m back to unworthy.

The emotional work began anew. This time I had to pull out bigger guns, crawl deeper into the trenches, find the five-year-old me who was operating with bad intel and get her out of the mental war zone. 

Transformation of the mind is an ongoing process.

The layers will continue. But for now, the battle has subsided. My mind has been washed clean again. There’s no voice telling me that I’m failing those around me or that I should be ashamed for needing so much assistance. Instead, I know what I deserve.

I DESERVE LOVE in every form. Not because of anything I do, simply because I was born worthy. Just like you. 

It’s been a long time since I’ve been able to work a regular job, perform angel readings, or host my beloved Sacred Circles and workshops and thereby produce income. Aside from small royalty checks, my avenues for earning have been shut down. To say being unable to work or support myself has been humbling would be an understatement of epic proportions. My work ethic is fierce, so this wasn’t by choice. Do I still see the divine at work here? Let’s see…a workaholic whose body refuses to let her work? In my experience, that’s exactly how the divine works. Conditions for my evolution are provided, not necessarily conditions that are all snuggly and comfy. 

A divine life may not look “fair” through human eyes. The divine is beyond human comprehension. It’s unexplainable. It doesn’t concern itself with what’s logical. That’s a human thing. Instead, my life is divine as long as I’m able to see the life lessons, magic and miracles all around me. It becomes more divine each time I rise to a challenge, or move beyond my comfort zone. You are witnessing that right now.

My Request of You

At this time my computer is failing. With it goes my ability to connect here online. I care about being “plugged in” so I need to ask for your help. If the information and guidance I share freely on this site has touched you in some way, please consider helping me by making a donation.

That’s it. I’m not going to tell you my story of woe to tug on your heartstrings. I’m not attempting to be mysterious, or allude to a terminal illness. I plan on sharing the journey and the big aha’s in the future. In this post, however, it feels right to simply ask for what I need and respect your free will to choose if donating is right for you.   

Thank you for being here!

Peace & Love,

Kim

Recently, the angels asked me to revisit a post from earlier this year, update it and re-post it. The purpose was to reach the people who feel challenged by life at this time and may be seeking solace. I am one of those people.

In listening to the angels for so long now, I’ve learned that through all difficulty there is a higher meaning and  purpose. Much of what humans call suffering is actually the facilitation of a valuable lesson, or emotional release that leads to better understanding of ourselves and more compassion for others.

There’s information in this post that’s repetitious, however, as someone who requires repetition to learn, I don’t question their methods. Their messages, while similarly worded, are different enough to create new encoding which will unlock understanding for additional  people.

My guides have explained:

It’s time…

As the Earth’s vibration is being altered to hold the resonance of Peace, Unity/Love there are practices that can assist humans through energy adjustments and transitions.

It’s time to do what’s necessary to bring you into full love and acceptance of yourself.

It’s time to become skilled at maintaining peace of mind.

Here are the suggestions for making energetic adjustments smoother:

1. Breathe. Deep breathing grounds you. If you wish to be the steward of your life experiences, you need to be present inside your body. Those who float around outside their bodies (running on autopilot) will likely  find themselves out of soul alignment and desperately seeking a return to their center.

Can you make it a habit to breathe deeply throughout your daily shower? Your whole drive to work? Consider  connecting the practice of conscious deep breathing to something you do every day so it becomes a natural part of your daily life.

2. Intend. Each day take a moment to intend what you want out of life for yourself. What do you really want out of life? If you think it’s a winning lotto ticket, go a little deeper. It’s most likely the feeling (security, safety, freedom) you think money provides. 

My intention is to heal any part of me that needs to be healed so I can incorporate more light. I intend to open myself up to the highest vibration of love that my soul container can hold. If lottery winnings come with that, cool. I’ll use the winnings to bring all the love I can to others.

The highest intentions for my life cannot be bought or paid for. For me, the ultimate freedom comes from a divine internal state. It transcends every living condition.

3. Call upon your Creator, God, Jesus, Spirit (the source of your life) and ask for divine protection, then know you truly are protected.

4. Center yourself in the safety of your current moment and day.

5. Mentally create an inner sanctuary that’s completely personal to you through meditative visualization. This is a place where your spirit is safe and you can commune with the energy of your Creator, Angels, Advocates and Guardians, both animal and spirit. Please call in the light of divine protection as you begin this creation process.

6. Nurture friendships with those who can be trusted completely to provide loving support. (You choose who is in your life.)

7. Visit places in nature known to fill your body with peace. For example: The ocean, mountains, a lake, stream, a lawnchair in the sun, etc.

8. Identify and spend time in activities that nurture your soul. 

Define what nurtures you. Make a list. What helps you heal your spirit? Spa days? Massages? Acupuncture? Spiritual books? Naps? Smoothies? Watching Oprah? Spiritual or motivational conferences? Salt baths? Chiropractic care? Spiritual advisors? Professional counselors? Guidance sessions with trusted Life Coaches? Energy treatments? Hypnotherapy?

It’s imperative that we spend time in the activities that nurture the soul. The people we engage must also nurture the soul. If you go to Debbie Drama for a healing treament, it’s unlikely that you’re being nurtured.

Now is the time to assemble your “Nurture the Soul” team. Who will you allow to support your ascension to higher vibrational levels? Who will you entrust to make  this sacred journey with you? These are the important questions.

Release. Release. Release.

Here comes the broken record moment. Let’s talk about releasing energy…again. Do you know what needs to be released? In your gut, you do. These are the issues that you take great pains to avoid, the anxieties you work to not trigger. The clues lie in what you keep secret, what confrontations you avoid, who you avoid, what you fear expressing, the ways you hold yourself back, the subjects that make you queasy and the TV shows you won’t watch for fear of what it stimulates inside you.

What you don’t want to face, that’s what yearns to be healed.

Who or what activity can help you release blocked emotions and energy? There are many activities you can choose from. There are courses with curriculum designed to help you take a deep look at your conditioning and the origination of your belief system. Consider visiting an acupuncturist, or an energy healer or reiki practitioner that does body work. Consider Tai Chi or yoga. Consider hypnotherapy. Try searching the Internet for “releasing blocked emotions or releasing blocked energy.” Ask your angels to guide you to the right person to work with or ask  your friends for referrals. When you intend to work with energy and heal, it’s best to make sure you’re completely comfortable with who you allow to assist you.

In order to experience the sense of ease and comfort that we long for, we have to face, honor and release the energies that hold us hostage from our full expression of love. If you’re willing to take a leap of faith, there’s a host of angelic support waiting in the other realm to rush in and hold you up. It takes courage. It’s not easy. But, you will not be alone. 

Just this morning when I entered meditation I was met by thousands of bright glistening angels. I call and call upon this support and I’m blessed with breathtaking visual affirmations that my prayers are heard. My visions are also your affirmations. Your calls for support are heard and answered, too. We share a family of light and you are equally treasured.  

As always, I’m sending you peace and love,

Kim

My disclosure: Please bear with me. I’m experiencing some cognitive challenges at this time. There may be (hopefully minor) errors that I’m not capable of seeing at this time. It is what it is.

The simple realization that I have a choice was empowering.

How does it feel if you say it out loud in the first person?

I choose who is in my life.

When I meet someone new, the question is no longer- Do they like me?

The question is- How do I feel about them? Do I like them?

I don’t need everyone to like me. I don’t need to compromise myself for anyone’s approval. What I need is to consciously surround myself with quality people with whom spending time is joyful and effortless. After all, I’m creating the state of my life. And so are you.

Thoughts for your consideration…

Peace & Love,

Kim

A few days ago the angels suggested I prepare a post offering insight, and hopefully some comfort, to the many people of the world experiencing serious challenges in their lives right now. While writing that post, the angels flowed into another message directed toward the world’s “in service” workers; the intuitives, healers, energy workers, light workers, life coaches, psychologists, counselors, etc. These are the people that others usually turn to when they need help.

At this time, however, many of the helpers-of-humanity are in need of some support and direction themselves.

Even if you’ve done a great deal of work on yourself and have been successful helping others improve their lives, even if you have a large chest of spiritual tools to utilize, even if you’ve got a lot of knowledge, you’re human. You can still be knocked off your center. 

You probably intuitively know what’s going on already. Even so, the angels encouraged me to deliver the message, reminding me that I’ve felt better in the past when I was able to find folks online that I could relate to. They reminded me of times when I had questions like: Did anyone else feel the energy shift in the world last night? Are there others who feel electrical surges running through their body?

So it’s my turn to offer this post with love as validation for what you might be going through. You’re not crazy. You’re just a part of the collective mission—Mission Courageous.

This one’s for you….

For the healers, life coaches, counselors, energy workers and light workers of the world: As we make the transition to the age of peace and love, things may seem extra difficult for you. Shaking the lower energies from your system may be a little more intense (okay, a lot more intense) than you anticipated. In fact, you may be reeling at times. This is not without purpose. You know this.  

The angels shared this message: Before you ever came to this Earth plane, you volunteered to suffer the human condition so you’d have the opportunity to learn how to heal yourself and transcend suffering. It was not intended that you linger long in any suffering energy. The healing work you do on yourself has a ripple effect throughout the world. It invites more light to the realm. You intended to do the work of your soul, and in doing so, will amass valuable knowledge to share with others. You were chosen for this mission because of the intentions you hold. You accepted Mission Courageous.

The path of light can be difficult and we honor your efforts. If you are experiencing the human emotions of feeling punished, confused, or even crazy, we wish to remind you that you are perfect and loved. You are worthy, and part of your divine mission rests on your ability to stake claim to that worthiness.

Feeling tested? Pushed to your limit? Feel like you’re of no help to anyone else right now? If so, the angels encourage you to turn your service work inward. Go easy on yourself. Remember~ Just because you help others doesn’t mean that you’re supposed to have all the answers. Don’t hide your discomfort. Be honest. Be your real self. Your willingness to be authentic gives others around you the courage to be real as well. If your internal world is messy, then allow messy. But, above all be love—for you. That’s the ultimate healer. And should you need it, please seek the type of outside help that resonates with you.

I am a perfect vessel of light in every moment. My life is unfolding according to the Divine Plan

I love this quote by Barbara Marciniak:

“It is an awesome task to carry light: once you put it in your body, there is no stopping it. There is no saying, ‘I quit the light team. I won’t be recognized as a member of the Family of Light.’ Some of you may want to do this sometimes, but once the light is there, that is it.”

That’s my truth. I’m going through one heck of a time here and yet, there’s nothing else I’d rather be doing than honoring my Creator, cleaning up my internal world and bringing more light into this realm.

So, if you’re not feeling all bright and shiny right now, if you aren’t running around with your arms wide open, if spiritual wisdom isn’t falling from your lips, it’s okay. You’ve probably entered the advanced course of human education. Think of yourself as a student going for your Doctorate of Light. This is a course with many layers and revelations. This one’s going to take some time and it’s going to be HARD WORK.

It’s almost impossible to comprehend the magnitude of this education.

Many of us are bringing our lessons to ourselves rapidly. From personal experience, I know how hard this can be. Just hold on. You can do it. On the other side of this tunnel we both know there’s light. There are deeper levels of self-love, self-care, self-trust, and a heightened level of awareness for the more subtle forms of guidance. You are becoming ALL OF WHO YOU ARE. 

You are learning how to integrate the love and light vibration. To do so fully, does not mean that you’ve found a way to rid yourself of your darkness or shadows.  Rather, this is about loving acceptance. To wholly accept your nature, (flawed human/ perfect expression of the divine), is holy.

You are a multi-faceted, divinely complex human with many shades and colors.

Those who know me know that I am all about love, yet I sometimes hate credit card companies. I am peaceful and calm, yet my husband has a saying— “Be careful not to step on Kim’s tail.” I flare up like one pissed off kitty if you step on something I’m passionate about. I’m passionate, which means I get angry. I am courageous, but don’t always feel confident. Sometimes I look good, and yet feel like I’m ugly. I’m warrior strong and proud to be fragile too. I get confused, I become clear. I do many things well, but sometimes the Inner Judge of Me tries to tell me I’m worthless.

I know to the depth of my being that the work I do honors my calling and yet sometimes I will ask God for the millionth time: Am I doing what you want me to do? Am I worthy of this job?

I live with the total faith that everything happens for a reason and that there is no good or bad, only labels assigned by humans. I’m blessed with divine communication that offers me the highest view of why things happen in my life and yet I sometimes cry out to God, Why is this happening to me? 

I am gentle. I LOVE to help others. But, if you’ve read my book Living in the Rear View Mirror, than you know that somewhere inside me there’s a person who could snap under the right circumstances. 

I am multi-faceted and divinely complex like you.

In every moment, I do the absolute best I can. In my favorite moments, I have grace. But, am I only a worthy human if I act perfectly? If I did put on that act, how authentic would I be? I think my highest calling, period, is to love all of me. Every last part, without judgment. Could that be your highest calling, too?

There may be parts of yourself that you don’t acknowledge. If we turn our full attention to serving others, we don’t always have the time to take a deeper look at ourselves. Your advanced course in Light may actually first require a descent into the lower regions of yourself. It may require a trip down into the dark dungeon where you’ve locked away energy remnants of shame, abuse, trauma, self-abuse, self-judgment and self-loathing. Are there ways in which you still subtly, or not-so-subtly, diminish yourself? (Dim the light). Your willingness to go into the trenches, rescue and nurture those parts of yourself will give you vital, living knowledge that will help other people.

There’s nothing I could be doing that’s more important to me than working toward my Doctorate of Light. My feet are a little charred from being in the fire, but I remember what the angels said above, It was not intended that you linger in suffering, so I’m willing to do whatever it takes, NOW, to heal the parts of me locked in that suffering.

I’d like to leave you with this because it came up for my consideration and was addressed: Once you’ve come through your own phase of cleansing and release, a glorious new phase will begin. It isn’t necessary that you feel rushed to get “back to normal.” This process is every bit a part of your mission as your service work is.

Just do your best to honor yourself and the process. If you’re feeling me in this post I’m sending out big hugs and love to you.

Affirmation: I lovingly take care of my mind, body and emotions. ~ Louise Hay

I write when divinely inspired…

Sometimes, if I’m lucky and all cylinders are firing, I can whip a short post out in one day. More commonly,  the post takes form over the course of many days. When there’s a hold up in the writing process, it’s usually because the human filter—me—hasn’t found  the right words to express the message as intended. Once I do reach the right vibe, I feel “cleared to post.”

Mind you, this doesn’t imply that my posts are perfect expressions of the divine. I just do my best to maintain the highest intention and integrity of the message I’m transmitting. Since this is my primary focus, I rarely remember what I’ve written.

When I read the old post, I made the assumption the message was for me, but was quickly told, There are many people in need of this message. It turned out to be a very expanded one. Here we go:

There are so many of us being stretched to our perceived limits.

The more I stretch, the more I learn about my many layers. I’m one divinely complex human. You are too. I’m learning that I’m capable of much more than I think. And so are you. If you’re feeling stretched, it’s not without purpose. The world is experiencing powerful purification. Some of us are facing our biggest challenges ever. Yes, ever.

Are you feeling out of it? In limbo? Spiritually lost? Funky? Disconnected from the world at large? What about disconnected from your Creator? No matter how unsettled or messy you feel right now, the angels tell me Your life is still being divinely managed. 

You are being presented with opportunities to rise above what you believe are your limitations.

Long-buried fears are coming to the surface and causing emotional upheavals. While you deal with fears, however scary they are, you are not alone. The love and protection of many angels, guides and spiritual advocates surrounds you. It may be hard to fathom, but just beyond the veil there are millions of positive, loving energies, a family of light, available to support you. Their primary purpose is to assist you through your life lessons. If you want their help, remember to ask for it by stating your intention. For example: I call upon my angels and guides of the light to help me with_____. Please guide me to the path that’s for the highest good.

Fear isn’t the only feeling rising from the depths of our souls to be reconciled. Long-held emotional wounds are open. For many, resentments and anger are surging up, whereas depression and health issues challenge others. Our oldest self-sabotaging stories and unhealthy childhood conditioning may be charging right into our faces. When this happens, you are not alone. These things need to be dealt with.

The human defenses of denial, avoidance, and stuffing feelings aren’t viable solutions right now. That which needs to be faced and healed will circle around in a seemingly new scenario. These situations are gifts, new opportunities to heal.

Who doesn’t prefer the path of least resistance?

We’re human, after all, and we use diversionary tactics to avoid the darker shades of our inner world, the places we prefer not to deal with. We occupy our minds with the pursuit of the right man or woman, the pursuit of material things, or we become absorbed in political rhetoric and religious debates. We have lots of addictions to choose from including many socially accepted ones like working excessively or spending hours on social media sites.

Some of us purposely go around our fears, resentments, angers, childhood conditioning, and self-sabotaging stories instead of walking through them with our feet on the fire. Yet, if we were to choose to go through them, we’d bring an end to their power over us.

The Light Vibe~

The Earth’s vibration is rising to meet the higher frequency of love. Light is the path to love. Light is  the wisdom in you, the understanding and acceptance of the many layers of your human self. Light is your   heritage, your divine  nature. To fully access this part of you, you must feel worthy. You certainly are. But do you feel it? Are you willing to peer into every corner of yourself to see who you really are so you can accept yourself fully and make room for more light?

Start with reconciling your human condition (flawed) with your divine nature (perfect.) It goes like this: You are flawed. Equally as flawed as your fellow humans. You are perfect. Equally as perfect as your fellow humans. Everything you love in another, you have within you. Everything you hate about another, you have within you.

As the Earth’s vibration increases it presses against the lower energies that are not matched to love and light: Anxiety, anger, emotional pain, self-absorption, fear, greed, the need to dominate, impose our will and the like. When we release or transcend these energies we are filling ourselves with more light. 

Sounds dandy but you don’t know how to transcend them? First, ask for divine assistance. Ask the Source to guide you to who or what is best for you. Then, follow your heart to the right counselor, the right spiritual circle or meditation group. Talk to your happy, well-adjusted friends. Ask how they heal themselves. Ask people you trust and admire for advice. Search online.

Go easy.

For some folks the purification energy creates the overwhelming sense that something needs to be fixed or drastically changed in your life. (My impulse is to sell my stuff and move to Bali.) If you feel this, rather than fighting against it, allow the feeling to reveal its wisdom. Don’t make yourself nuts trying to find the answer. Lean in, relax and allow yourself to be moved gently. Ask your angels for guidance. Don’t push. Flow. Trust the process.

Lastly, if you’re a person of faith, if you know that everything happens for a reason, you’re one of the blessed. Please have compassion for your brothers and sisters who may dealing with an onslaught of feelings and have no idea how to cope with them. If you come across someone mid tantrum or hissy fit, saying a little prayer for them would be a very loving action.

If you are in the business of helping others, the next post is for you. Please come back and visit again soon. Or better yet, sign up to receive it through your email!

Sending peace and love your way~

Kim

In Oprah’s historic last show she spoke to millions of people about energy, much to my delight. Earlier this year my angelic guides told me that they encourage folks to learn as much as they can about the way energy works.

Energy is a big subject. The good news is that you don’t have to be a quantum physicist to understand how it impacts your daily life. Years ago when my guides began giving me lesson upon lesson, it didn’t take me long to realize that everything is about energy. Your entire life is created by your energy interactions. You’d be doing yourself a huge favor to learn all you can.

In my book, New From the Inside Out, I wrote about our daily energy exchanges. Absolutely everything you do all day long is an energy exchange. Here’s the kicker: The effects of those exchanges are cumulative. Everything you choose to engage in affects you. Every depressing song listened to, every harsh thought, every hug, every smile, everything. 

You can be sitting on your behind watching TV, feeling like you’re relaxing, yet you are still receiving an energy transmission through the choice of your programming. What is the vibration of the show you’re watching?

You might feel all alone when you’re at home banging away on your computer keyboard. But, if you’re plugged into the Internet you’re connected to an energy exchange almost beyond comprehension. The Internet is alive. It’s a whole world of energy inside our world of energy.

You Are a Creator Being. 

I believe that God is the Infinite Creator (the original creator energy) and that I am a divine spark of God. Therefore, I’m an energy chip off the divine creator block. That makes me also “an energy that creates.” The angels regularly tell me that creativity is the mother of joy. If that’s the case, I’m capable of producing a life of joy using my creative skills. But, because of free will, I can create my own misery, too.

Good vibrations

You are responsible….    

We create our lives through our beliefs, thoughts, feelings, actions and decisions. When we aren’t happy, it’s no one else’s fault. If you can pinpoint who you believe is making you unhappy, they aren’t responsible to change. If you want to alter that related energy, you’re still responsible—to either learn how to improve the relationship or to move away from that person. If your job is making your life unbearable, as hard as it is to change, your happiness depends on your ability to find a solution for yourself. When our families are full of drama, we are the ones who need to learn boundaries and solutions to better deal with that drama.

Our choices, deeds, thoughts, feelings and beliefs give birth to the energy we hold in our energy body. When we allow ourselves to live unconsciously, whatever we brush up against each day becomes the energy stimulus that creates how we feel. That’s daily living at the mercy of the world. From that unempowered position we spill our coffee, get cut off in traffic, watch the news, have gossip filled conversations, fight with our loved ones, think negative thoughts and then tell ourselves that life sucks.

If you want to create a life of love and peace, you can! But, you’ll need to become aware of what’s around you. The natural progression of awareness is selection. As you understand how everything affects you, you can choose what you allow to affect your day. You will still be subject to the normal ebb and flow of life on Earth, but through awareness you’ll have the option of choosing your reactions. Having a reaction and choosing one are two very different things.

You’ve heard the saying “What you focus on expands?” This is the perfect explanation of how humans create by way of thought.

Our repetitive thoughts actually whip up some “energies” that hover around us becoming attached to our energy fields. If you spend a lot of time in gratitude, you invite the energy of gratitude to walk with you through your days. Once created it becomes part of your nature.

Conversely, when we spend a lot of time thinking about our resentments, illness, fear, or anger, we create a haze of negativity to surround us. The haze can become very hard to break out of. Ever notice that once you get going on a roll of negativity that the feelings and thoughts multiply almost effortlessly? When we tip the scale in our energy body to favor negativity, the physical body can produce symptoms of illness. If we think about those symptoms all the time this can lead to the creation of the “energy of suffering.”

To “take responsibility” do you have to cleanse yourself of every single negative thought or hurt feeling? Do you have to learn to speak never using a profane word again? Should you never again listen to rock music, watch the TV news, or be around your younger sister, the drama queen?

The answer is no. Whew! This is about empowerment. This is about consciously making choices. With knowledge and the understanding of energy life is easier to manage.

It does take diligence to learn and practice what you learn. However, I haven’t found a more rewarding life lesson. It’s changed every aspect of my life for the better, even though I don’t practice what I’ve learned perfectly. I’m still a student of life!

Consider yourself invited to the lessons-in-energy school of life…after all, the angels told me this is YOUR year! I hope you’ll consider observing your life with your feelers instead of your eyes. Ask yourself how you feel about your interactions. Do you feel uplifted by a conversation? Do you feel heavy after watching that show? Do you feel numb after hours spent on the computer? Do you feel uneasy in certain situations? Do you feel delighted after spending time with certain friends? What makes you consistently feel happy?

The answers to these types of questions are your energetic cues. What if you could slowly move away from the heavier energy and move toward feeling happier and lighter?

Yes, what if!

Peace & Love,

Kim
