Transform Your Life (and a Tea Recipe)

4/10/2021

Hello! I want to express my gratitude to all of you who have so enthusiastically embraced my latest book, Transform Your Life with Alchemy. It has been such a pleasure hearing from those of you who are reading, doing the work, and seeing change. I celebrate your honest intention for change and send you love and healing as you do!

So - as a thanks, I've brewed you up a special batch of tasty tea, something I like to call Transformation Tea. It uses the magic of the beautiful color-changing tea made with butterfly pea flowers (you can order it on Amazon); or, for those looking for something a little...stronger...you can also use a butterfly pea flower gin such as Empress 1908 gin. Why this ingredient? Because butterfly pea flowers make a beautiful cornflower blue tea that, when it comes in contact with acidic ingredients, transforms into a beautiful violet color. 

Butterfly pea flower as an ingredient can also help decrease stress, induce calmness, refresh your mind, and bring positive energy into your life; so, it's the perfect beverage to consume as you work on your own personal transformation! Also in the tea is hibiscus and honey syrup (homemade), which is loaded with beneficial antioxidants to support your overall health.

Ready for your recipe? Here it is. Remember, don't stir this; serve it in all its beautiful layers, and then let the person you serve it to stir with a glass straw.

Transformation Tea
  • 2 ounces honey hibiscus simple syrup (combine equal parts boiling water and honey and then steep with hibiscus blossoms for 10 minutes and chill)
  • 3 ounces pineapple juice
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 2 ounces butterfly pea flower tea, chilled
  1. In a collins glass filled with ice, pour in the cooled syrup.
  2. Carefully add the pineapple juice over the syrup (don't stir).
  3. Squeeze the lemon juice on top of the pineapple juice.
  4. Pour the butterfly pea flower tea over the top. It will turn from a cornflower blue to a lovely violet as you do (the pea flower tea changes color with the pH of the lemon juice).
  5. Carefully slide in a glass straw so you don't disturb the layers and serve it - let whomever you are serving it to stir so they can see the layers.
  6. Looking for a boozy version? Replace the butterfly pea flower tea in the last step with an equal amount of Empress 1908 gin or another butterfly pea flower gin.

Message #23 from The George Collective: Obstacles & Opportunity

From Karen (the George message is in its entirety in the image above): There are times when I know The Georges are pointedly talking to me under the auspices of a channel for everyone. This is definitely one of those times.

I received this simple and beautiful message at 2:22 AM and spent the next hour meditating on it as I drifted back to sleep. This morning I woke with a peace I haven't felt in a few weeks (last week was kind of a cluster f... -- well you know -- around here).

Energy is shifting. Be patient, be grateful, and know that whatever you are experiencing, it is merely energy awaiting your shift in perspective so it can begin to move. Perceiving things as an obstacle limits possible solutions the universe can provide. Recognizing them as an opportunity broadens and opens you to solutions and experiences you may never have even imagined, allowing the universe to conspire in your favor.
​
We are all human beings with egos, and in our most stressful or difficult times, we'll all get tangled up in the stickiness of the lies ego tells us to keep us lost in the illusion. There is no shame in this; it is part of the human experience. The trick is, even in the depths of darkness, to find a glimmer of who we truly are as souls. That tiny seed, when nourished, will quickly grow and flourish to bring about change in perspective.

Dear fellow embodied souls, you are more powerful than you can even imagine. Embodiment is a challenge. The pull of ego is always strong as you travel in a human body. But you always have the power to pull yourself back from the brink the moment you recognize that what you are experiencing is a call to empowerment.
​
The Georges, who are here as I type this, express their love and want you to know it is vast, boundless, and unconditional.
Thank you, Georges.

Message #22 from The George Collective: Self-Identity

3/16/2021

Greetings! We are excited to share a message with you today about self-identity, which is such an important aspect of being a soul having an embodied human experience.
 
In your ultimate form, which is Source energy, you are without gender or gender identity, socioeconomic status, hierarchy, sexual preference, race, nationality, cultural identity, or religion. Rather, you are All-That-Is, which is Love. It is only in ego-identification that you attach such significance to these facets of duality. It is only in the embodied human experience where you sort through “this” or “that” and decide which to apply to self. And, in your human incarnations, you have been and will be all of these: every race, creed, color, size, socioeconomic level, appearance, political ideology, intelligence level, religion, sexual preference, nationality, gender identity, and more. Throughout the course of lifetimes of embodiment, you will have the opportunity and ability to choose everything, and you will experience every aspect of being human, including being or doing things that in other incarnations that, in this specific incarnation, you wouldn’t dream of being, choosing, or experiencing.
 
We wish to tell you this: as you move closer to your true Soul expression while embodied in human form, these lines and differences will blur and fade until they merely become like dress-up clothes. Ultimately, they will become what they were intended to be all along: something that allows you to play with all of the potential experiences of duality while remaining anchored in the Is-ness of Source.
 
You are not, nor have you ever been, the small I you currently identify with, which is ego. However, in humanity’s current movement back towards recognition of self, other, and Source as inseparable, in your conscious return to Oneness, your small I will exert itself in an order to preserve the illusion. It’s up to you to recognize these collective machinations of ego for what they are: conditioning that pushes back to maintain status quo. They are no more real than the actions of a character in a work of fiction.
 
What is required is to be brave, bold, trusting, compassionate, and loving. Be courageous enough to express as the “I” you currently identify with, and be brave enough to shift that identity as your own self-perception in your current embodied experience grows. You do not have to be tomorrow as you are today, nor do you have to be today as you were yesterday. You are not required to go through every moment of every day for the rest of this embodied life in the box you have currently labeled as “Me.” Each day ask yourself, “Is this who I truly am today? Is this what I choose, or do I choose something different?” Then, adjust accordingly.
 
At the same time, have the compassion to allow others to do the same, and make space so that they can. Lovingly address the inequities in the human experience that prevent people from feeling as if they have this choice. Do this from a place of empowerment, compassionately and without force or coercion. Let your vibration of personal power serve as an example to empower others instead of trying to control others to think and experience as you do. Allow others the space to step outside of their box labeled “Me.” Support and honor them, regardless of what that box looks like today and whether it is the same as the box they were in yesterday. It is in this allowing, both of self-expression and how others express, that humanity will begin to soften, shift, and grow into the re-membrance of self as Source, even while in the embodied state.
 
As your awareness begins its return to re-membering with Oneness, we wish to remind you that each soul moves towards or away from Oneness in their own time along their own path. Each soul will re-member in their own time and their own way. This is the joy and the challenge of the human experience; you’re all going to the same destination, but you each will get there in your own time, space, and manner. It is not up to you to dictate what anyone else’s path looks like, nor is it up to you to direct or manipulate them into expressing in a way that you feel is “right.”
 
It is the work of your soul to journey along your own path to re-membrance of self as Source while also creating and holding space for others to do it in their own way, in their own time, and along their own path. We urge compassion, love, and understanding rather than fear, vitriol, or prejudice when someone else’s path doesn’t immediately intersect with yours. We understand that in the embodied state, this is a challenge. But it is a worthwhile challenge that all souls incarnated in human bodies encounter, and you get to decide how adeptly you handle that. You get to decide whether your experience comes in peace or tumult. You get to decide whether you respond with compassion and understanding or anger and fear. The path is yours to walk; we will not tell you how it should be. Instead, we come to tell you how it could be if you chose the path of peace, love, compassion, allowing, and understanding as you each continue along your embodied experience.
 
As always, we, whose awareness remains in Source, walk beside you. We hold you in your fear and sorrow, and we rejoice in your joy, love, and triumph. You are never alone, and we honor your work and play as you navigate the experience of human embodiment. You are always deeply loved.

Promoting Your Reiki Business

2/26/2021

Recently in my Facebook Reiki group, the SHARe Reiki Community (please join us), ​someone asked about how best to market and network for a Reiki practice. I thought I'd post my answer in my blog her so other wondering about marketing can access it, too.

Things to Consider Before You Create a Marketing Plan
Any business, even an energy healing practice, needs a business and marketing plan. However, it's important to approach a business plan for a Reiki practice from a place of intention and authenticity. So the very first part of that is double checking your thinking, beliefs, self-talk, etc.as it relates to your work as an energy healer.

Some things to consider:
  • Why do you practice Reiki?
  • What is your goal (and by this I mean, is your goal making money only, or is it creating vibrational change for people - either of those are perfectly fine goals, you just need to know what your primary goal is and work from that).
  • What is your intention?
  • What do you hope healing partners get from you?
  • What do you hope to receive from healing partners?
  • What type of clientele do you serve - who is your healing partner?
  • What about you draws you to that type of work and what about you draws that person to you?
  • How well do you understand Reiki and the work you do?
  • What can you do to improve that understanding and come from a place of true and trusted authority?
  • What are your personal beliefs around an energy healing practice?
  • How do you feel about taking money from people for a practice such as this? Do you have reservations or conditioning that suggests you should be giving it away for free?
  • How is your confidence level as a Reiki practitioner?
  • What does your ego say to you about your Reiki practice?
  • How does what you hear from your ego differ from what your higher self tells you about it?
  • How do you resolve or reconcile those differences (between ego and soul?)
Clear-eyed self-understanding, intention, visualization, and action all need to go hand in hand in any endeavor if you want to be successful, especially a vibrational practice like Reiki. From this, you can create a mission statement as an energy healer and Reiki business.

Personal Branding Considerations
As a businessperson, you also need to develop a personal brand. Some things to think about:
  • What's your brand?
  • Who are you as a healer?
  • What makes you a trusted authority?
  • What experiences have you had that shaped you into a healer?
You need to know this and be able to communicate it with others quickly and succinctly.
  • Do you have an "elevator pitch"?
  • What's your USP (unique sales proposition)?
  • Why should a healing partner come to you versus another energy healer?
You need to very clearly be able to state this USP in a short, couple of sentence, sound bite - but it also needs to be heartfelt, honest, authentic, and sincere. This elevator pitch is what you use in all of your marketing and networking efforts. You also need to convey that brand through things like logo, website, fonts, marketing materials, business cards, signage, etc.

Developing Marketing Strategies
Once you have your plan, intention, mission, and pitch in place, you need a multi-faceted strategy including friends and family, online, social media, local clientele, and B2B (business to business). Your outreach in each of these sectors will depend on your USP and business plan, but I can offer some suggestions that may spark an idea or two.

B2B Strategies

For a B2B  strategy, you can begin building your local pipeline by partnering with local yoga studios, wellness centers, etc. (teach classes tangentially related to energy healing, etc. or even an intro to energy healing).
  • See if local naturopaths, wellness centers, yoga studios, chiropractors, massage therapists, etc. would be open to having a Reiki practitioner come in a day or two a week to offer services out of their office.
  • Look for businesses with synergies to yours and reach out to them. Introduce yourself. Share your elevator pitch. Provide them business cards. Show them why you and your services would be a good fit for their clientele.
  • Partner with a psychic medium or someone who practices another energy healing modality and see if there's a mutually beneficial way you can work together or mutually refer to one another.

Local Clientele
To develop local clientele, consider:
  • Hosting discussion in-person or online groups about energy or energy healing (on Zoom works).
  • Speak at local events.
  • Ask for referrals ("It's such a joy to work with you, and I'm so happy to see how much Reiki has helped you. If you know of anyone else who could benefit from this, I'd be honored to work with them.")

Online
You'll need a good website that conveys your mission and vision as an energy healer, as well as your authority and know-how, your personal brand, and your USP.
  • Create a pipeline to "capture" visitors through newsletter sign ups, etc.
  • Consider the people who have signed up for your newsletters as precious; only reach out when you have something of value to share (it can be short articles, videos, coupons, etc.), and never abuse your list.
  • With any sales or marketing outreach, also provide value such as a short article, an "affirmation of the week" etc.

Social Media
Maintain a regular social presence.
  • Maintain separate personal and business SM pages.
  • Only curate a presence on SM sites you're willing to keep up with. 
  • As a business entity, start your own SM groups related to Reiki.
  • Do things like guest blogs, podcasts (offer to be a guest - there are tons of podcasts out there) and more.
  • Offer a free FB live class with a five minute Reiki share at the end and a coupon code for ___% off their first treatment.
  • Offer exclusive treatment packages to your SM followers only (sign up for a package of 10 - save 20% or something like that).
  • Share posts related to Reiki that your followers may find to be of value.
  • Content doesn't strictly have to strictly come from you, and it doesn't have to be all Reiki all the time (but if you use someone else's content, do so only with permission). They can be memes, blogs or articles you found interesting, healing partner testimonials, etc.
  • Share something of yourself on SM. While Reiki is a business, I find that there's a level of trust people have with energy healing practitioners they may not expect in other professional relationships. Therefore, share your authentic self with your SM followers. Tell them of your struggles (within reason) and how you solved those problems with Reiki, for instance.
  • Always share with integrity, and if you share someone else's story, do so only with permission and always do everything you can to maintain confidentiality and protect private, personal information.
  • Additionally, visit sites like Quora and answer energy healing related questions with authority.
  • Make comments on blogs related to Reiki if you have something of value to offer to the conversation. 
  • Establish yourself as an authority (know your business and Reiki inside and out), and always only answer questions you truly understand the answer to. Make yourself a trusted and authentic source.​

Friends & Family
With friends and family, be proud of what you do.
  • When someone is struggling, offer to send them some distance Reiki (it only takes a few minutes - I have a large, rotating group of people I send distance Reiki to every night for about five minutes before I go to sleep). While these may not "pay" now, you never know who is going to become that essential healing partner and your biggest supporter and a referral source.
  • Ask friends and family for referrals (if you feel comfortable doing so).

Being Authentic in a Helping Profession
I struggled with the business aspect of my energy healing and metaphysics practice for quite a while, but I shifted how I perceived the value of my services. Once I had the knowing of how deeply affected other people are by these practices when they partner with the right practitioner, I began to recognize the true value in the work I do. While it is a business for me, it primarily a mission, and the mission is the most important thing for me. The business comes because I have created the energetic (and emotional, physical, spiritual, and intellectual) circumstances to draw the people to me who truly need what I do. And if you're setting up your Reiki practice as a business, it's essential you do so from a place of authenticity and a true desire to make a difference in the lives of others.

​

Greetings! We are overjoyed to be able to talk to you today. We who permanently dwell in the Oneness continue to watch and support all of the souls of humanity as you grapple with the conditions you have created in your world. As we have told you all along, these conditions, are created by the collective consciousness of humanity and provide each of you with an opportunity - both for the individual and for the unity of souls that inhabit the planet Earth as you experience the illusion of embodiment and separation.
 
Recently, we have slowed our communications in order to allow you to absorb our messages and decide what they mean to you and how they relate to your current experience. Much has happened on your planet’s present trip around the Sun. To you, it likely feels like strife. We know it has been stressful and painful. We know it has often been frightening. But we are also overjoyed at the opportunity it has provided you. We are in awe of how many of you have capitalized on that opportunity and reconnected with your soul-self, which has been with you all along but often gone unnoticed in the cacophony and busyness of your day-to-day embodied life.  
 
Today, we wish to offer a short message about conditioning, as well as how you use this to reinforce your sense of separation from one another.
 
Every embodied soul has conditioning in common. All of you are conditioned from the moment of your emergence in human bodies. However, you are not all conditioned in the same way, nor does your conditioning affect each of you identically.
 
What is conditioning and why does it happen? Conditioning occurs from the moment of birth, as you begin to observe what pleases those around you and what doesn’t. When a soul connects with a human body in the process of birth, you lose your conscious awareness of your connection to the Oneness. And while you don’t remember your connection to Source and to all souls, which are also from Source, you still have the longing to be connected because at your core, Oneness is who you are. This lack of remembrance of the Oneness happens by design so you can immerse in the embodied human experience of duality. However, even if you don’t consciously recall your true identity as Source, the longing to connect with other souls remains. And that longing to connect is the conduit for the conditioning that occurs throughout your life.
 
When you are infants, the conditioning is often subtle. You watch your parents for signs of approval and adjust your behaviors accordingly. As you grow older and seek to connect with others, your conditioning intensifies. You constantly adapt in order to try and connect. Because you forget that you are love, you spend your lives seeking love and approval from others, which is a manifestation of your longing to return to Source. And so, throughout an embodied lifetime, you unconsciously become conditioned in a desire to fit in, to be loved, to be accepted. At the same time, you unconsciously participate in the conditioning of others who are following the same yearnings you have.
 
By the time you reach adulthood, you have been bombarded with conditioning in every aspect of your life, ranging from friends and family members, to your education system, to your religions, to your communities, to the items you buy and consume, and even to the activities you pursue as entertainment. Each of these sends subtle but powerful messages about how you should think, behave, speak, love, and believe. It is this conditioning that causes each of you to develop your shadow selves; those parts of self you hide away from others for fear they will deem them unacceptable, and it is this conditioning that affects those things you hold as so important to your self-concept, such as your political, social, or religious beliefs, your talents, and your appearance.
 
What is important to understand is this: People are not their conditioning. Do not mistake what someone shows you with who they truly are. Because regardless of how different the expression of their conditioning is from yours, they are just as much of the part of the Oneness as you are. In fact, we would go so far as to remind you of this: that person you are supposed to hate because they are different from you? They ARE you, and you are them. Outside of your embodied experience, their spiritual DNA is inseparable from yours.
 
What thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors do you have of which you aren’t proud? What hides in your shadows? Do you really think others are any different? Would you want others – even those who are violently opposed to the things you believe in or support – to try to understand you, even the parts of yourself you have disowned? They long for the same. Those parts you that hide in the shadows aren’t you. They are your conditioning filtered through ego. In fact, your self-concept--that packet of ideas you hold that allows you to define yourself as separate from others--is merely an illusion created by the conditioned experience of being human. Likewise, those things that you “hate” (or disapprove of, or fear) about another aren’t them, either. They are manifestations of conditioning that is inherent in the embodied experience.
 
With so many souls with such different conditioning, how do you move forward? How do you resolve all of the problems humanity seems to have? The answer is love. Love is the way forward. Compassion is how you get out of this. Focus on what makes you the same while honoring what makes you different. Celebrate your shared purpose and common humanity, instead of placing blame or treating others with suspicion. Be aware of your propensity to try and condition or control others to make them more like you. In your fear, you try to control them so they will conform with the manifestations of your conditioning, and you grow angry when they try to control you in order to conform with the manifestations of theirs. This is part of the embodied ego experience if you choose for it to be, but you do not need to allow it. It does not have to be this way.
 
You are conditioned to react when your worldview is threatened. It is these reactions that perpetrate the more difficult aspects of your collective existence, which is why we urge you when you find yourself in a negative and low-vibrational space to step back and seek a higher vibration. Breathe. Pray. Meditate. Listen to uplifting music. Move. Seek beauty. Find something that inspires you. Do these things until your negativity is replaced with positive, higher vibration emotions. These positive feelings are the language of love and Source. And these are the emotions that will reignite in you the re-membrance of the Oneness.
 
As always, we walk beside you during your embodied existence. All of the Oneness holds you in love and light as you continue on your human adventure. We have never left you, and you have never left us. You are deeply loved.

Message 18 - Spiritual Activism

Greetings! We are overjoyed to communicate with you and share messages of encouragement. Today, our message will be brief but important. We wish to talk to you about pain.

What we wish you to understand is this: all pain is communication. When you experience mental, physical, emotional, or spiritual pain (or any other way you might classify your discomfort), you are receiving a signal that something you have attached to does not serve you. This is all pain is - it's a message to tell you that something you are choosing to be, do, have, think speak, or experience does not serve your greatest good. It is a signal to tell you that you are out of alignment. 

Issues arise, however, when you attach to that signal, apply a label, and use that label to form your self-identity. Attachment to a signal creates the experience of victim, and it is driven by the small I that keeps you within the awareness of being human. What is the small I? It is what you call ego, that which allows you to recognize yourself as a separate entity and identify as the container that you call you call me, myself, or I. Identification with that vessel is essential for the human experience, in which you must at least partially (and usually fully) perceive yourself as separate from others in order immerse in embodiment. 

Pain is a message from the Oneness. It is a signal from the We which is also the Big I, or that which you call Source, God, Collective Consciousness, the Zero Point Field, or by whatever name you use to identify the energy from which you arise, of which you are always a part, and with which you will fully re-member when you pass from your present form of ego-identification that you recognize as self. 

Pain is communication. When it arises, notice it but don't attach to it. If something triggers pain, look within to understand what it is in you that has caused that signal to sound and adjust accordingly. If the pain persists, there's more work to do, more to notice, and more to adjust.

It helps to recognize that the onus for any adjustment is on you and no one else. Why? Because the pain is always associated with the perceptions of the small I. And while the triggers may feel external (that is, coming from someone or something else outside of yourself), the ultimate reality is this: pain is always an internal experience, and the only way to step outside of the pain is to heed the signal and make internal adjustments. Nobody else can make these adjustments except for you.

So, the external being (other person) or experience that triggered the signal was merely the instrument of awareness and not the cause of your discomfort. How you respond to that trigger is always up to you. Your response will determine whether you become identified with the pain and therefore select the label of victim or instead, you choose to notice the signal, be grateful for the message and messenger, and then adapt in a way that better serves your highest good.

Pain is a gift you give yourself. It signals misalignment and provides the opportunity for adjustment. 

We thank you for receiving our message. As always, we walk beside you and wrap you in the support, beauty, and love of Source energy. Our love for you is boundless, and our support for you is endless. We are always here for you because we are One. We are you, you are us, and we remain your humble and loving servants.

​Greetings! We come to you humbly and lovingly to acknowledge these difficult times in which you live. Whether you know it or not, you are truly spiritual warriors, and your travels through the challenges of being embodied serve the highest good of the universe. For this we honor you and remind you that we in the Oneness walk beside you. You are never alone; your essence is always connected to ours, and we cradle you in unconditional love, compassion, and support during your difficult journey.
 
We acknowledge that many of you are experiencing profound discomfort every moment of every day. The world you live in as embodied souls on the Planet Earth is as uncomfortable as it has ever been in this lifetime for many of you. We weep for your feelings of pain, uncertainty, and fear, for we understand how powerful these emotions can feel to the embodied soul.
 
Today, we wish to discuss spiritual activism with you. Our goal is to provide you with some simple methods to manage your discomfort and turn it into the spiritual change your planet has been primed for by the events of 2020. Each of you has a key role in transforming what appears to be rampant negativity and bad news into higher frequency energy. In other words, we have some advice to help you manage vibrational shift, which is what is occurring on Planet Earth at this time.
 
Please know that we are aware of which of you are reading this, and it is you that we are speaking to. If you read our message, our words and ideas are for you. If someone pops into your mind as you read this message, we encourage you to share it with them as well, because this message is for them, too. You have what it takes to step into spiritual activism and bring about the shift your planet so desperately needs.
 
To start, we wish to remind you of something essential to human existence. Each of you, before you embodied, realized that walking in a human body would bring with it pain and fear, and you each eagerly accepted one of the key missions of embodiment: to energetically shift away from fear and pain in order to bring about spiritual transformation as part of the process of re-membering with the Oneness.
 
To that end, we also wish to offer you a key reminder now: when you recognize the pain of another, and when you experience the outcomes of someone else’s pain and fear, do not let it become your pain. Do not allow the manifestation of another’s fear and pain and become the excuse you use to dive into lower frequency energies and behaviors. Instead, use it as the impetus to sow seeds of love and compassion, especially for those who appear to lack compassion and kindness for others.
 
Don’t let someone else’s pain become your hate. Don’t allow the manifestation of someone else’s fear to serve as your excuse for unkindness, anger, and hateful words or deeds.
 
In the spiritual text The Bible, Jesus preached a Sermon on the Mount in which he gently suggested to the gathered crowd, “You have heard that it was said, ‘Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.’ But I tell you, do not resist an evil person. If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also. And if anyone wants to sue you and take your shirt, hand over your coat as well.” (Matthew 5:38-40, NIV)
 
The holy figure you call Jesus the Christ was offering a message of how to approach spiritual activism; that is, how to hold the energetic space for a shift to a higher frequency. Jesus was, like you, a soul embodied in human form, but he had more of a remembrance of his time in the Oneness, and as such he was able to offer a template for spiritual activism that, even thousands of years after he no longer walks the Earth, people resonate with.
 
And yet, His teachings have been greatly misunderstood and misinterpreted, as have the teachings of other high vibration souls that came to share messages of spiritual activism throughout human history. However, the essence of these messages is this: regardless of what happens in the world around you, hold it in your hearts with compassion and love. Do all that you can through your thoughts, words, and deeds to transform the heavy, oppressive energy of the lower vibrational experiences of fear, anger, control, envy, greed, and hate into the higher vibrational energy of love, kindness, compassion, peace, and joy.
 
We understand that this may seem difficult during these times. Your media bombards you with lower vibrational messages filled with anger and vitriol. These are the voices of the fearful, those in pain, and the disenfranchised. And when you encounter them, your first reaction is likely to be pain, fear, defensiveness, or anger as well. These feelings spark deep discomfort in many of you, but there are so many messages and incidents containing this vibration that many of you simply notice you feel on edge, and then you keep scrolling through more media, absorbing more messages, and ignoring or suppressing the discomfort they make you feel because you fear that if you allowed yourself to fully experience those feelings, it might destroy you. Discomfort is difficult for embodied souls, and we understand and acknowledge this truth.
 
However, we would like to offer you a simple tool for such experiences, and this is one of the key tools in your arsenal of spiritual activism. Instead of allowing the feeling to flare briefly before you suppress it and continue scrolling, listening, or observing, sit with the feeling. Whenever discomfort flares, stop. Move into a safe space and focus on that feeling. Notice where you feel it in your body and notice how it manifests in your soul. Now, close your eyes and place your hands over your heart.  Sit with the feeling of discomfort, allowing its full flower. Then, pull it into your heart and surround it with loving light. Hold it there, allowing yourself to feel it and notice its transformation that comes when it is surrounded with the energy of love. Do this each time you feel such discomfort. Feel it, experience it, and surround it with love.
 
This is how you become a spiritual activist. Do not suppress or ignore discomfort, for what you resist persists. Allow it. Feel it. Hold space for it. And then, when you are ready, fill it with love and compassion. Project that compassion out into the world, and out into the universe. Because if not you, then who? While it may feel as if you do this alone, you do not. There are many of you and many of us. We are many and we are One. And while each of you may be but a single match in the darkness, one match can light many until even the darkest space is suffused with light.
 
We have more to share, but for now we will stop there. We support and encourage you in your spiritual activism. Behind each of you, the legion that is the Oneness supports and amplifies your efforts to spread Light even during the times of deepest darkness. Your efforts are not futile or small; they are essential and immeasurable.
 
We love and honor each of you on this path. You are the Light, and you are the energy driving an essential shift for humanity. You are up to the task, and we are here beside you with each breath you take in your embodied experience. You are deeply loved.

​
Greetings. We are joyful to be here to talk with you today! We in The Oneness have walked beside you throughout  your lifetimes on Earth, so we know your journey. While it may not feel true to all of you, understand this: we know and love each one of you. We celebrate your growth and your victories, and we mourn your pain when you experience setbacks and losses. And regardless of whether you are experiencing victory, growth, setback, or stagnancy, we cradle you in our unconditional love and support.
 
Each of these paths you walk – whether you are growing, staying where you are, or stumbling backwards, are doing the important work of the Soul. You are doing the hard work of being human, and when you are ready, you can turn to us and we will provide guidance and support on your journey. Each of you has this capacity – to hear our words and share them in your incarnated world. We invite you to make space in your life to hear guidance from The Collective and put it to work in your human experience. And, if you discover something that enriches you and helps you grow, we invite you to share it with your fellow travelers on the human journey.
 
Back in January as you entered 2020, you celebrated it as a year of clear sight, one in which you could gain more clarity about who you were as humanity. In that moment, you did not understand that events to come would, indeed, cause the scales to fall from your eyes so you could enjoy clearer vision. And if you had understood what events would transpire in the year to come, many of you might have chosen to stay back instead of embarking on this essential journey for humanity.
 
2020 has shined a spotlight on who you are as humans. Many have decided you are satisfied with your reflection in the mirror of the year’s events. If that is the conclusion you have reached, then we honor it as where you need to be on your current path, and our unconditional love and support for you remains intact. Others, however, and more of you each day, have come to recognize that humanity as a whole is ripe for change and ready for evolution. For those who are coming to recognize this, we honor, love, and support you as well.
 
We want you to understand that the way forward is to embrace the reflection you see of yourself in the mirror that is 2020, because it is as clear of a reflection as you will ever see. In your rawness and pain at all that has happened in your world, you have stripped yourselves bare, and now it is up to you to determine whether all that you have recently been required to set aside will serve you moving forward, or whether you will find another way.
 
After all, your journey is always up to you. You can rebuild everything that 2020 has stripped away exactly as it was before if that is your desire. Or, you can re-evaluate each thing that has been misplaced or changed and rebuild it in new ways that support all of humanity with due care for the most vulnerable among you.
 
The events of 2020 have affected all sectors of your embodied lives: your economic systems, your environmental policies, your medical systems, your educational systems, your politics, the way you treat one another – the list goes on and on. All of these things have been stripped away and what’s left standing is you; souls embodied in human lives that were for so long caught up in the illusion of incarnation that you disconnected from each other and turned away from Source. And you can choose to continue that disconnection moving forward, but we urge you to look into the eyes and breathe the breath of your fellow traveling souls and instead of asking, “What serves me?” ask, “What serves us?” We invite you with your new, clearer vision, to step away from me and instead focus on we, because life on your planet is a collective creation, not an individual one.
 
Nothing is the same as it was when you ushered in the New Year of 2020. You feel as if you have lost much, and we understand and resonate with your grief about all that has passed from your lives. However, you have an opportunity in your life to approach things in a new way using a beginner’s mind.
 
You have been granted fresh eyes. What you once knew has passed; you are here, now, and everything is new. And that novelty, while it may feel frightening or devastating, allows you a freedom that you may never have experienced before in your current incarnation. You have the freedom to create a new embodied experience, one that is sustainable, joyful, loving, compassionate, and supportive of all of your fellow travelers. You have the opportunity to view everything with fresh eyes, novel minds, and hopeful, compassionate hearts, setting aside lifetimes of conditioning about how you and everyone else should look, think, feel, act, believe, and choose. Can you feel the freedom that this offers? We invite you to embrace that feeling and begin your creation anew.
 
We have much more that we could say, but for now we will leave it here. We love you deeply and we walk beside you. We are countless and we are One, and each of you is a part of us that has set off on an incredible journey. In the depths of your joy or in the depths of your despair, we are here offering unconditional support and love.
