“Compassion For Others”

Week 4:  In week 4 we begin to work with others. You will acquire the ability, along with a powerful visualization, that allows you to safely offer compassion to others, even the most difficult people in your life! This week helps you find the path to solving interpersonal conflicts with grace, gratitude and acceptance.

“Compassion For Your Past”

Week 3: During week 3, we will continue to uncover our true voice of wisdom. And, we’ll delve a little bit into our past to see what part of us is in control of our present day lives. Is it your adult self at the microphone or is it a child you once were who’s literally stuck in an old emotion or event? I will offer a guided meditation technique that allows you to reclaim your inner children. You’ll begin to understand how to uncover and transform the negative cycles in your present life by discovering where they truly originate.

“Connecting With Yourself”

Week 2:  In week 2, I will offer you a transmission for the universal energy of pure compassion. This energy comes from your higher self and is always available. It’s up to us to make room in our bodies and our lives for this beautiful energy. The focus of this weeks’ teachings will be to highlight ways we can allow our compassion to flow more freely and we will look at what blocks or stops this from happening. Along with this “download” of energy, you will be given a guided meditation technique which will allow you to offer compassion to yourself at any stage of your life.

“The Gift Of You”

Week 1: In week 1 of our webinar, thru my teachings and guided meditations, you will learn how to stay present and grounded everyday. Being more present in your own life will allow you to begin to detect the difference in your voice of wisdom versus your sabotage voice. We all hear from our sabotage voice daily and some people never realize there truly is an alternative voice trying to be heard. This is your voice of wisdom and compassion. Hearing more from your wisdom voice, your inner knowingness, will teach you how to balance your negative emotions and energy.

The Dalai Lama says, “If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion.” This simple statement says a lot. The key to happiness rests in each one of us living our own compassionate, true nature. So, why isn’t this happening more? Why is there war, famine and hatred? Why do we let groups of people suffer endlessly while other groups of people prosper?  Simply put, we’re blocked. Our compassion is blocked. It’s part of our human condition. And, we’re here to work on it.

I feel we each have a couple of voices we tend to hear from on a daily basis. There is your wisdom voice, which can appear sweet and somewhat soft. It’s patient and kind. This voice comes from your spirit and is simply waiting for you to notice it. It’s not pushy or complicated. It has always been with you and will never leave you. And, this wisdom voice always has compassion and love as it’s motivating factor. This voice is your intuition. It tells you to trust your heart. When we come from our compassionate heart, our boundaries are inherent. When we live in our own compassion, we are safe.

And then there’s the other voice….this one is in stark contrast to our wisdom voice. It’s negative and fearful and is, most likely, a very familiar companion to you. Let’s call this voice the sabotage voice. We all have one and it tends to block our compassion. These sabotage voices always have fear as their motivating factor. In my experience this negative, saboteur begins as a “helper” of sorts. It’s trying to protect you but in a negative way. And it usually has just enough ammunition from past, painful events, to get your attention. It may say things to you like, “Don’t trust them again, they hurt you once before. They’ll do it again. People don’t change!” It’s trying to protect you but is actually taking you out of the present moment and into a past pain and using fear to keep you from moving forward in the present.

If you really listen, you’ll find the sabotage voice is based in past pain or in a fear of the future but it is NEVER based in the present moment; right this moment in time. So, being in the present moment is how we can alleviate the sabotage voice. Grounding ourselves into present time is a way to turn the volume down on the negative saboteur so we can hear from our true wisdom voice.

And, I believe this is our job. Think about it. If we could all be more present, if we could all come from our compassionate, true nature, if we could all love and allow ourselves to be loved, what would this world look like? This isn’t a dream. This is a very likely possibility. And it all starts with you and with me. We must each do our part. We must each know our own heart. To do this, we must BE PRESENT. And, the time is now! Don’t be afraid. Just be present. Let your compassion flow out from your heart like a beautiful stream. Why not? Seriously, what have you got to loose?

It has been said that the ingredients in my cells can be traced back to the beginning of time. And it has been proven that the air I breathe now is the same air that Joan of Arc breathed and Sir Isaac Newton inhaled. They say the atoms that make me up are the same atoms that make up the oceans, and the forests and the mountains. The energy that flows thru me is the same energy that makes up the trees I see, the air I breathe and the water I drink. I am the forest, the river, the plants, the animals and all people. I am not an “I” at all. I am, in fact, a “we”. We are the same. We are one. We have been recycled throughout time. And we sing.

We are an orchestra playing the most amazing song. Each one of us has a note to sing, to play, to reveal. We are all part of this great, big song. And we are waiting. The song is waiting for my note, for your note for his note and for her note. We cannot continue this symphony without each one of us. The entire composition depends on me and on you. We are writing one great song here. And we are each responsible for our part. We are the harmony, we are the percussion we are the treble and the bass. This is our song and we have never been separate.

I’ve noticed that, as people, we tend to value space quite a bit. We buy big cars and big houses on big properties in order to have space and freedom from others. We shop in big stores and take vacations where we can just “get away from it all”. Ultimately we find that our search leaves us empty and full at the same time. We are empty in the sense that we still crave freedom and space but our lives are full of these objects that are supposed to help us feel free. Ironically, these objects are empty of any inherent freedom and only serve to further clutter our physical space causing us to feel trapped. It is truly a vicious cycle.

It is time now for us to turn our attention to the one place that can truly fulfill our need for spacious freedom. This place has always been and will always be. This place cannot run out and will never be lost. The place I speak of resides within all of us; it’s not just in some of us but it is within each being on earth. It is your true nature. Sometimes it’s called your higher self, your spirit, your divinity or your divine nature. These terms are all speaking of the same place and this place belongs to you. You can access your true nature at any moment. But in order to access this place of ultimate freedom and spaciousness, in order to access your spirit, your true nature, you must first drop your encumbrances, if only for a moment.

Imagine what it would feel like to be free. Imagine what it would feel like to stop the voice inside your head that slowly eats away at you each day, telling you to suffer with this or that. Imagine being love. Imagine feeling compassion for each being on this earth. If only for a moment, imagine…

I had a reading today with a client who asked me to “contact the wisdom beings” and ask them how many of them there are, why they help us, do they all have the same sort of agenda and is their help contingent on anything we do down here?

Great questions and I really can’t remember anyone ever asking me to do this so specifically. What came through was a simple, yet profound explanation of “their” purpose. The wisdom beings said their number is too high for us to count and that they are all of the same “truth” frequency or vibration. They mentioned that they can appear in a solid form that makes sense to us and that their language depends on what we can hear and understand. They have no contingencies for helping us. They simply asked my client to “pay them back” by loving himself more. They mentioned always being available at any time for him. I got this strong vision of all this incredible white light that had some forms inside the light.  They were crowding around to communicate with us. He was in tears and so was I.

After the session I was chatting with him and noticed a configuration on the wall to the right side and above where my head would be when I sat during the reading. It was a hundred or so perfect little circles of multicolored light. Lots of whites and pinks with some blues and yellows. I had never seen anything like this so, I took a picture of it.

Wisdom Beings

I felt very moved while I watched this configuration of light and color fill the air on and just in front of my wall.  It stayed for about 10 minutes and then faded to solid light then to nothing. I felt this was a blessing from the wisdom beings for communicating with them. I felt the wisdom beings “showed up” in this way, on my wall, as a reminder to me and my client that they are here with us all the time. I was left with a feeling of spacious compassion and acceptance. The part that stuck out the most for me was when the wisdom beings asked to be repaid by my client loving himself more. That statement felt true for all, expansive and wise!

Relationships, like everything on this earth, are made up of energy. When we begin a relationship, we are two whole, separate people. Over time, we begin to share energy with one another.

Sharing energy is when we store some of our energy with our partner and they store some of their energy with us. Eventually, we may even begin to look like our partner. You probably know couples like this. Perhaps they’ve begun to dress alike or laugh alike or use some common phrases and mannerisms. In small doses this can be cute. However, let’s face it, in large doses these couples can be rather annoying, especially if you’re on the outside looking in.

I’ve noticed it’s hard to make boundaries with your partner if you don’t know who you are. And, how can you know who you are if your energy is so entangled with your significant other that you’re not sure where you end and they begin?

The real issue here is “Energetic Entanglement”. This type of entanglement can truly destroy a relationship. It’s a subtle, invisible energy that, at first, can seem innocent and even, well, cute. I think it’s important to note here that this is not exclusive to romantic relationships. In fact, I’ve seen many close friends and family members become so enmeshed in one another’s space that the relationships delve quickly into co-dependency.

So, how do you know when you are Energetically Entangled with your partner, friend or family member?

Answer these questions as honestly as you can. Remember, no one is grading or judging you.

* Do you have conversations in your head with your partner or friend when they are gone?

* Do you feel separation anxiety from this person on a regular basis?

* Do people frequently say how much you look or “seem” alike?

* When is the last time you thought of yourself before you thought of them?

If you answered yes any of these questions, chances are good that it’s time to separate your energy with this person.

I think it’s important to acknowledge that many people are concerned that by doing this they will “push” the other person away. This is a concern that usually comes from someone in a new relationship. Things are going well and they don’t want to “jinx” anything or make the person feel they are not wanted.

However, separating your energy with your partner will actually increase your attraction for one another. It will allow you time to miss the other person and it will allow them time and space to miss you.

How can you miss, appreciate or desire each other if your energy is so entangled with one another that you don’t know where you end and they begin?

Think of it this way, when you first met one another, you were two whole, separate beings. You were attracted to one another’s uniqueness, your individuality. Then, over time, you both began to store energy in one another’s space. It’s kind of like using your roommates closet to put your excess clothes in. When we store our energy with someone else, we are no longer able to operate as that unique, whole individual we once were. And, when the other person accepts our energy, they are no longer whole either. Now both people are operating at half their power.

I work with a lot of couples and many of them say the “spark” has gone out of their relationship and they don’t know where their passion went. I’ve experienced this as well and it’s a terrible feeling that leaves you scratching your head and wondering, “is it me?”

The stories are all the same. The couple starts out ablaze with passion for one another. Then, over time, the passion begins to fizzle. They spend less and less intimate time together and more and more time going about the tasks of their daily lives. They no longer feel the passion for one another they used to feel. Usually one person in the relationship is a bit more bothered by this dynamic than the other. However, both people agree on one immutable fact: the sizzle is gone and their desire for one another is waning. They are left with one question; is this the beginning of the end?

The answer is, it doesn’t have to be the end. Know that if you are newly in love, in a relationship that’s lost some, or all of it’s spark, or if you’re struggling with a friend or family member, the technique of separating your energy will work to bring your relationship back to right balance.

Relationships are living organisms. Like plants, they need the proper care, attention and conditions to thrive. Imagine spending the same amount of time on the “energetic wholeness” of your relationship as you do on worrying about your relationship. The goal here is to bring yourself back to being a whole person and allow your partner to be whole as well. Enjoy the renewed interest this technique brings to both you and your loved one.
