It’s currently the beginning of November and I sit quietly and reflect on the past year. I remember how much has changed, and what I have learned from all the experiences I have had.
The veil to the non-ordinary world is the thinnest today, meaning we can connect with our helping spirits, our passed loved ones, and our ancestors’ wisdom the easiest.
Also because we are collectively awakening our consciousness overall we are able to tap more easily into our intuition. The subtle messages and oracles that Spirit is communicating to us are magical and what we need to keep growing.
This is where I’ve been drawn to, a deeper connection to all that is because everything is alive and we are all interwoven together energetically as one.
Our ancestors understood this and they stayed close to the beauty and wisdom of divine nature, and what her elements teach us.
????Air element teaches us to remember to slow down, breathe, be in the moment, and create some space when life gets confusing or overwhelming.
???? Fire element teaches us to remember that we create our life, our passions fuel our internal flames of desire and we have the power to change our reality just by staying connected to our heart.
???? Water element teaches us to feel and validate our feelings so they flow through our body and release as is meant to be. It also reminds us to go with the flow of life, because we are always being guided to what is best for our soul’s growth.
???? Earth element teaches us to stay connected to our body, the earth, and our relations, past and present. It reminds us there is wisdom in every experience we have. All we need to do is stay in awareness of ourselves and the world around us.
✨ Ether element teaches us to remember where we come from. We are made from divine nature with unlimited support and potential to create our lives with the help of non-ordinary reality. Our personal power comes from a divine source whether we call it God, Universe, Spirit, Creator or something else.
Love is the common denominator and divine essence that heals all.
I also reflect on our history and remember the brave souls who risked their lives, and many lost them to stand up and fight for our freedom. It certainly has changed since then, which everything does, and yet I wonder what they would think or say if they were here now?
Nonetheless, I willingly trust the process and that everything is unfolding in divine order, according to a divine plan, so I focus on what I can change, myself.
This leads me to remember my past, and the wisdom each experience has given me. I would not be who I am today if it was not for my past, so I do not regret it but learn from it so I don’t repeat it without being aware.
Life is cyclical and we are always evolving so when a pattern shows up I take the opportunity to practice what I’ve learned so I can integrate it into my being permanently.
Lastly, I reflect on the current world, the darkness being brought to light, the unconscious coming to the conscious.
It’s not easy to witness it knowing the immense pain and suffering that has and still is occurring. Often my heart felt like it was breaking even though I have not been drastically affected, but it has affected all of us in some way and I’ve processed a lot of feelings this year.
It’s been a wild ride experiencing reality shifting along with my physical body and cognitive abilities evolving and I am eternally grateful for my lessons, my loved ones, and my health which are my wealth.
I claim my sovereignty as a divine being of light and love.
I stand in my truth of who I am and why I am here, to experience my soul’s journey which has an immense purpose, to make a difference. How do we make a difference you may be wondering?
By remembering who we truly are at our core, our true essence of self.
Do you remember?
Besides impacting the lives of others to ‘be real and love life’ the most powerful thing about the work I get to do is the reflections of the teachings that come back to me. I always receive some type of wisdom, healing or blessing from the experience, whether it’s a private, group session or a speaking event.
Whatever the message is that I’ve conveyed I am somehow reminded of how it applies to me as well and it guides me towards the next stage of my growth.
Being aware of the subtle messages that are being sent to guide us forward is very empowering.
Last weekend at the Soul Full Day conference, I guided a group of 70 women through a visualization meditation to identify and let go of a fear story holding them back from what they truly wanted for their life, freedom to live their love story.
It was remarkable to witness them releasing the fear and claiming their love stories, seeing and feeling themselves living in the higher potential of their dreams.
This week I’ve been deeply reminded of the fear story that I’ve been carrying, ‘not being well enough to live a fulfilling life because my digestive health is failing’.
This is the same story my grandmother carried, and she died in fear with this story in her which was unconsciously passed on to me, and I accepted it.
For 8 years now I’ve been having various challenges with my digestive health. I’ve seen many different professionals and tried many different remedies and lifestyle changes. Some have worked and some haven’t. Over time things seemed to have mostly settled, then just a month ago the issues flared up again in a bigger way.
This brought up the old fear story for me as I prepare for a trip of a lifetime. I’m going to Egypt on a sacred pilgrimage to the visit the lands and ancient sites with 13 other women. This will be my first trip overseas and I’ve always been fascinated with Egyptian history, never thinking I would get the opportunity to visit until it showed up to me. I was very drawn to go, and decided I was going, even though it felt way outside my ability to be able to take such a trip.
Worries and a wide range of emotions have been coming up for me since these flare ups have been happening. My mind races and makes up stories based in old fears.
What if I am not well enough to fully experience this trip? What if I am stuck in my room and miss the tours, or what if I am not able to digest the food there? All that disappointment and money spent if I might not be able to full experience it.
These stories are very similar to what my grandmother used to tell herself. She was afraid to go far from home, let alone on a plane to another country. Everything centred around her digestive limitations and she was petrified of having an ‘accident’ while out in public. These fear stories debilitated her and she became a hermit and was very lonely in her later years.
I will never forget seeing her in the final days of her life living in fear. I visited her almost every day and seeing her like that was very sad because there wasn’t much I could do other than comfort and reassure her that she would be ok.
What it did do was motivate me to face my own fears and not go down the same path as she did. In this regard, she was a great teacher to me and not long after she transitioned I was divinely guided to take the Radical Forgiveness Master Coach 10 day training in Atlanta.
It was a huge step for me, and again way outside my comfort zone, but in the end it was one of the best things I could have done for myself because it set me on the trajectory of facing my fears, and the journey of living my love story.
I am eternally grateful to be on this path of self-forgiveness and self-acceptance just as I am, and in time I have learned to love myself. I’m still on this healing journey however this year I’ve had some major shifts in this area of my life and feel truly worthy and deserving of this love for myself because I have freedom from the fears.
This is where the synchronicity comes in again.
It just so happens that this Friday, the day I fly to Egypt, is the 9 year anniversary of my grandmother’s passing, and it’s a full moon! You just can’t make these things up. I didn’t realize the mysterious alignment of these dates until just a few weeks ago.
In numerology the number 9 represents endings and completions and I have a strong intuitive feeling that this trip is going to be transformational for me as a new beginning.
The other day when I was dancing my grandmother came to my mind, she was dancing with me, and I know she is leaving me these breadcrumb signs to follow to complete this stage of my journey. I made a promise to her that I was going to end the cycle of fear she carried and commit myself to healing into wholeness.
I have no doubt that this is all happening for me, rather than to me. And unlike my grandmother, I will face my fears and take this trip and I will trust in the divine unfoldment of it all.
I am reminded that everything is always working out for me, even if it doesn’t seem that way and she is cheering me on all along the way.
These are the same phrases I spoke to the women when I was on stage just a few days ago and they echo loudly in my mind as the beautiful blessings of having the freedom to live my love story.
If you would like to experience the guided visualization for yourself listen to the audio recording so you too can be free from your fear story and claim your love story.
In my next blog I will share about my travel adventures so stay tuned, and if you would like to be notified when I share it you can join my email Love Letter list at the bottom of this page.
Until next time… thank you for being here.
