Spiritual Self-Care
August 5, 2024
Each of our unique Souls are precious in their own way. Our Divine Souls emanate healing energy, but we must remember to take care of ourselves in body, mind, and Spirit. An empty cup cannot fill another, and so we must pay attention to how we are feeling in the moment.
How do we fill ourselves spiritually? By setting loving, disciplined boundaries, creating balance, and practicing self-care. Each of us simply needs a chance to replenish and withdraw from the everyday tasks we assign ourselves. Creating a regular practice is important for finding new levels of empowerment as we explore what we need to be healthy. By sitting in silence, and talking with our Divine heart, we will learn to trust our intuitive guidance as we honor our own spiritual light.
May we all find true healing with grace and gratitude.

July’s Full Buck Moon
July 17, 2024
July 21st will be the second full moon of summer. The energy of this full moon will give a little cosmic sparkle to your productivity and ability to move forward successfully. It is the perfect time to embark on creating something new. This moon is traditionally known as the Buck Moon. The Buck Moon focuses on making life work for you instead of working hard for life. As the week unfolds, look out for unexpected opportunities to come your way.

Leading With Your Heart's Desire
July 10, 2024
The energy this week has something wonderful in mind for everyone. It inspires each of us to let our hearts lead, instead of fearful expression. This energy influences your manifestation skills making it an ideal time to visualize what you’re ready to experience. Each of us can trust that we are creating something magical. By tapping into our hearts and discerning what’s for our highest good, we can focus more on gratitude and create positive emotional expression. Blessings c
Spiritual Coherence
July 3, 2024
In today’s world many people drift through life unaware of what they are consuming when it comes to societal fear-based opinions and the effect it has on their psyche. The Spiritual journey allows each of us to take conscious control of our lives through the awareness of our thoughts, beliefs, values, and choices. Spiritual consciousness is a choice we make through our discernment rather than reacting to all the illusion and fear-based information that is out in the world and taking it personally. When we allow fear to define the way we feel, then we cannot hold the space of positive spiritual coherence and see, sense, and feel through the eyes of love and light. When we choose to have faith, even in the darkest moments, the light will shine through. It is helpful to remember that there are no mistakes, only lessons, as everything aligns with the Divine plan.

Choosing Kindness
June 26, 2024
Choosing kindness towards ourselves and all living beings and practicing gratitude, and reverence for all life on a daily basis, will inspire us to live from our Divine heart. Through prayer, intention, and consciousness, we can stay in the warmth and brightness of our loving heart. Blessings c
The World of Spirituality and Personal Growth
June 12, 2024
Spirituality is often misunderstood as something abstract, but it is much more than that. It is creating a healthy relationship from a place of unconditional love. Personal growth nourishes spiritual growth and helps us navigate life by having a deeper perspective and understanding of our human experiences. As we cultivate self-awareness, we can uncover our hidden strengths and weaknesses to embrace the freedom that comes with releasing old patterns and opening ourselves up to new possibilities. It inspires the loving relationships we cultivate with ourselves, others, and the world around us.💜 Namaste c
Living Authentically
June 7, 2024
Our Soul’s purpose inspires each of us to be more authentic and empowered in our body, mind and Soul. We gain power, assistance and untold blessings when we tap into our Soul’s purpose. We are blessed with the sacred task of working with the Divine energies within, allowing us to live authentically in the moment. What if we took a moment to tap into our compassion and honor what really matters to us, whether it fits into contemporary cultures and values or not. Living in this way not only feels better and more truthful, it also leads to a successful life with much more creativity, positive contributions, personal empowerment and satisfying relationships. Not to mention inspiration for others to draw from so they too can grow. Namaste c
Wisdom's Grace
May 20, 2024
Is your past calling you? Is it calling you to be cleared or released? All experiences that we’ve had, and mistakes we think we’ve made have given our Soul plenty of material from which to draw its wisdom. Each of us can choose to grow in awareness and have the capacity to embrace who we are in this moment. Sometimes we need to help ourselves access a new cycle by releasing old patterns that no longer serve us to build a new foundation of unconditional love. By transforming old wounds, we create lightness in our hearts, allowing us to move forward gracefully. May our spiritual intentions be blessed and manifested into creation. Namaste c
Balance
May 15, 2024
Although things may have felt out of synch in the past, May’s energy is bringing in a greater equilibrium and light filled balance. It’s important to focus on how you are balancing your physical and emotional energies. Whenever you feel yourself getting off center or losing focus, call upon your Divine intention and bring your attention to your heart center. Your guidance will lead you in the right direction inspiring you to create a peaceful and centered approach to having a summer filled with grace.
Affirmation: I choose to live a balanced and centered life as I care for myself and inspire others.

The Intelligence of the True Self Beyond Ego
May 1, 2024
As the intelligence of the true self beyond the ego, spiritual intelligence has many benefits that exceed the scope of intellectual intelligence and emotional intelligence.
Freedom from ego, as experienced with spiritual intelligence, grants wisdom and clarity of vision, combined with more empathy and compassion, which increases creativity and intuition, and results in greater personal fulfillment and better performance on important life skills and work skills.
Spiritual intelligence therefore represents the most powerful resource for personal and professional growth and fulfillment. Namaste c
Recognizing Divine Love
April 24, 2024
Divine love, like faith and inspiration, is an enigma and the single most necessary component of human life. Divine love is transcendent. It is the influence of Spirit over matter, and it is the language of the Soul. When we love without condition, we experience our Soul’s true nature. Divine love is unconditional and selfless. It is a way to experience the essence of another person and a way to share the essence of who we are. Divine love is one Soul’s recognition of God’s presence in another. Namaste c
Spiritual Intelligence
April 17, 2024
The energy of today’s blog is about choosing not to react to triggers from those around us, or our own wounds. When those outside of us are triggered and reacting, it is up to us to stay centered and non-reactive to their actions and expectations.
While we work to stay focused on our ability to bring forth a higher version of ourselves, which is derived from Spiritual intelligence, we experience a higher dimension of consciousness beyond the ego. This consciousness has access to the mature qualities and advanced capabilities of the true self, in the form of compromise, wisdom, integrity, and peace.
When we realize we don’t have to react, and are grounded in unconditional love, we allow our Spiritual intelligence to guide us, and everyone benefits. Namaste c
Be The Author of Your Own Story
April 3, 2024
Words have the power to shift our reality or continue to reinforce it. Every word we speak is an affirmation. This is perhaps one of the most critical spiritual lessons to remember. My blog today is reminding us to pay close attention to how the words we use impact our lives. If we want more love, light, and joy to be created in our world, we must become the author of our own story and write (and speak) it the way we want to experience it. I affirm that I will stay positive in the present moment and speak with intention.

Light Quotient Update
March 27, 2024
My guidance for the energy of the recent lunar eclipse is that we may find that people are even more attracted to our light. The lunar eclipse is helping each of us shift into a higher vibrational state of Being. This allows us to hold more Divine light without the denser energies affecting us. As we go through our ascension process, our Souls light will dissolve dense matter so that we can see what no longer serves us. Some people will be attracted to these changes and our healthy relationships will grow and improve. It is important to keep firm and loving boundaries that will support our personal peace. As our light grows brighter and stronger, we will be able to handle any situation that comes into our experience with ease and grace. Be kind and patient, stay Divinely empowered and trust that spiritual growth serves all. Namaste c
Compassion
March 20, 2024
Be very gentle with yourself in all ways. Gentleness is the strength behind true power, and it comes from feeding yourself with nourishing words, thoughts, deeds and intentions. In the complexity of life, release all judgment, and focus on love and light. When you are true to who you are, you give yourself permission to be happy and peaceful. 💜 Blessings c
Benefits of Spirituality
March 13, 2024
I believe exploring spirituality can help each of us find answers to the philosophical questions we have such as “What is the meaning of life?”, “What purpose does my life serve?” and “Do I have the energy to maintain a positive vibe with all that surrounds me?”
We must manage feelings of stress, overwhelm, and anxiety and not let them manage us. Spirituality can help us develop a more hopeful outlook on life, restoring faith and optimism.
By exploring and including daily Spiritual practices such as: meditation, writing and burning, getting into nature and reaching out to each other in empathy and understanding, we can support not only ourselves but each other. 💜 Blessings c
Today I Walk in Peace
March 6, 2024
Today I ask for Divine peace. May I see blessings in each new moment, and express gratitude for my human experience. I bless my mind for it helps me remember my purpose to serve my Soul’s Divine plan. I bless my eyes so that I can see with clarity the vision that shines within me. I bless my ears so that I hear Spirit’s Divine voice. I bless my heart, that loves unconditionally. I bless my body for it is healthy and strong. Today I am at peace, my heart is quiet, and my mind is at rest. 💜 Blessings c
Prioritizing Self-Care
February 21, 2024
Prioritizing Self-Care
My post yesterday on Facebook about being too busy to remember to remember, got me thinking “maybe it’s time to prioritize self-care.” Regardless of what’s going on in life, it’s important to include self-care in our daily routines. I know for me; March is going to be about upholding a work-life balance and taking personal time to rest and recharge.
I am guided and understand that it is much easier said than done. It is easy to feel like we are too busy to take care of ourselves, and we put off any form of self-care.
If we focus on creating a lifestyle that allows us to value our personal time as much as our obligations, we can improve our wellbeing, mental, and physical health and avoid feeling worn out.
I call this making life for us, and not working for life. 💜 Blessings c
Divine Love
February 14, 2024
What if the gift you gave yourself today, on Valentine’s Day, was to give yourself permission to be the amazing creation that the Divine made you to be. Focusing on your blessings and what you’re grateful for allows you to appreciate yourself and amplify your connection to unconditional love. When your heart is open to experience greater light, and love, it allows us to share our Divine light and unconditional love with those around us. Blessings c
I Choose
January 24, 2024
Today I choose to follow my Divine guidance and give myself permission to make healthy changes to my life. I choose to live joyfully in each moment through Divine intentions, and loving aspirations. Blessings c
Understanding The Healing Journey
January 17, 2024
In my work as a Holistic Health Practitioner, I emphasize that the self-explorative and healing journey starts with understanding our emotional body, as it holds a profound narrative of all our experiences. A lifetime of outside influences, unhealthy patterns, traumas, and emotions are stored physically creating dis-ease. The body then creates protective armor over time to protect the physical body. Healing then is a process of peeling layers (like an onion), gradually unveiling and releasing stored unhealthy stagnant emotions. Looking at the physical body is an important first step, as it provides a foundation for exploring deeper emotional and energetic layers, which also supports us mentally and spiritually.
Healing work is not an instantaneous process, it takes time to understand and shift in body, mind, and spirit, but the long-term healing effects are worth it. Blessings c
Foundation of Love
January 10, 2024
Change is here and brings with it a new foundation of love. This energy holds a new framework of inspiration that will inspire each of us to grow exponentially. To do this, there must be a recommitment to the evolution of the Self. It is the perfect time to birth a new aspect of the Self and connect to Source. We do this by embracing the constant flow of wisdom that is always available for evolution and enlightenment. Blessings c
Spiritual Freedom
January 3, 2024
True Spiritual freedom is when we understand and are willing to create what is for our highest good and the highest good of all concerned with harm to no one. Through Spiritual freedom we have no need to hold back – our Divine intelligence, our Divine power, our Divine wisdom, our ability to manifest, our capacity to do good, and our ability to heal and to share love. Spiritual freedom is a space of consciousness that is in complete alignment with our spiritual intention. Blessings c

Trust
October 25, 2023
As we trust in Divine timing for our manifestations to come to fruition, we must remember that patience and surrender are the keys to unlocking miraculous blessings. As we align our thoughts, emotions, and actions with our desires, we co-create a life filled with love, joy, and abundance. Together, we dance in harmony with the universe, manifesting miracles that are for our highest good. Blessings c
Get Grounded and Balanced
October 4, 2023
This fall season can be perfect for allowing yourself to take in the beauty of the outdoors and indulge in self-care and experience all that being grounded provides. Grounding self in the outdoors is a great way to reconnect with Mother Nature. As fall unfolds around us there’s no better time to breathe in the crisp air and enjoy the beauty of the changing leaves. Grounding, also known as spiritual earthing in Celtic culture, is the powerful technique of walking outside grounding into mother earth. By doing this, your body absorbs the earth’s energy, and you become more energized, relaxed, and focused. Grounding can also reduce depression, help you sleep better, and even lower your blood pressure. Most of us spend far too much time indoors (I know I do), in front of screens, and away from nature. There is no perfect way to ground, so use your intuitive nature, in nature, to ground and enjoy the moment. Blessings c
Practicing Mindfulness
September 25, 2023
Mindfulness is an essential core practice in leading a spiritual life of enlightenment. It is simply the act of becoming more aware of your life in the moment. When you practice mindfulness, you focus in on the experience you are having right now. Be it an action you are taking, the sensory perceptions you are feeling, or simply taking a moment to remember to breathe. When you notice that life is feeling heavy, using mindfulness can bring you back to center. Practice mindfulness to shift your current life experience to become more peaceful, and balanced.

Divine Prayer
September 6, 2023
I now choose to adjust my vibration and vision to perceive the highest revelation of truth available to me at this time. I ask the Divine for loving inspiration that I become a symbol of light so that I may understand the path that I am to embrace. I now let go of any fear that would distort my perception and prevent me from achieving the highest level of truth, which I am capable of creating for my highest good. So, it has been asked for and so it has been done. It is done. It is done. It is done. Blessings, c
Inner Strength
August 30, 2023
Rely on your inner strength to ensure your dreams are realized. Have a strong sense of self and embrace your personal power as you use it responsibly. By being confident in your talents and being willing to powerfully express yourself you can direct your desires into creation. Every time you criticize yourself, you weaken your resolve. Loving and accepting yourself, and acknowledging your values are the foundation of a balanced life. When you are authentically empowered, you have respect for yourself, and your inner compass knows the path to your true happiness. Blessings
Spiritually Supporting Others
August 23, 2024
Sometimes life comes at us, and we feel like we’re never going to be able to get through the challenges that are coming in waves. There are some lessons in our process of Spiritual growth that cut to the core of our being. These lessons can challenge our faith so deeply that even when we intend to grow from the lesson, we can still struggle to overcome the fear of the current situation. So today let’s talk about a Spiritual rescue remedy. Let’s hold the space for each other and inspire those around us through prayer, presence, and compassion. Together as a spiritual family we can be a lifeline for each other. Connection and understanding are the keys to lifting each other up as we support those around us. 💜Blessings c
Embrace Your Journey
August 16, 2023
As you may have noticed, I posted the 4 following words on Facebook: clarity, focus, ease, and grace. I ‘ve noticed there’s a lot going on for a lot of us right now and was inspired to expand on my connection with these words as I implement them into my daily life.
My understanding of clarity is to live my life with Divine purpose, intention, love and compassion and to be clear about what is for my highest good, and the highest good of all concerned.
My intention is to focus, in each moment paying attention to my thoughts and feelings as well as everything around me.
By living my life in the moment and surrendering to opting out of this fast-paced world, I wholeheartedly believe that life does not have to be rushed and complicated. It can be experienced with ease and grace.
Yes, some days I do it well; other days there’s room for growth. But even on the difficult days, I remind myself that life is not about perfection; it’s about intention and living in the moment.
My desire is to live in a world where each of us takes the time to meet our own needs first. To take breaks from putting everyone else first, to breathe more fully, enjoy our daily lives more, cut our to-do lists in half (or more), work smarter (not harder) and mindfully create and consciously move through life. I know there’s a lot of things we want to create, and I always inspire you to create for your highest good. But, if you’re constantly focused on what you don’t have, you’ll miss the beauty of what you do have. Remember to have a grateful heart in the quest for your dreams.
Don’t forget to stop and be thankful for the wonderful life you already have (it’s probably the life you dreamed of in the past). I believe gratitude is the secret to creating with the Universe through clarity, focus, ease, and grace as we choose to live mindfully. 💜Blessings c
Connecting to Love
August 9, 2023
You must choose to ask for love from the Divine Spirit and intend to release yourself from fear. Ask for peace without limits for you are an extension of the Divine. What is not love is always fear. It is impossible to deny what love is when connected to Mother/Father God’s love. 💜Blessings c
Freedom To Be You
August 4, 2023
This week’s energy is about being true to your inner knowing. In our surrender to Divine energies there are times when we must be flexible and flow, and then there are times when we need to surrender with faith and embrace that we have the right to be spiritually free and loved for exactly who we are. We must make a commitment to listen within and trust ourselves to hold firm to what we feel is in our hearts and refuse to be dissuaded from our dreams and a higher path to manifest our highest potential.
Affirmation: I am empowered from within through courage and strength. 💜Blessings c
Path of Illusion to Awareness
July 31, 2023
Take time to understand the chaos in your life and ask yourself this question: What are the illusions that you are buying into? Any time you buy into illusion, you’re giving your power away and thus your peace and freedom. When you allow fear into your consciousness, you silence your Divine spirit.
Understand that the illusion in your life can bring unnecessary stress. Stress takes us out of the moment and is just our ego’s way of creating fear. In today’s world we must stay out of the collective unconsciousness whether it be social media, news, other people’s dramas or even other people’s opinions of who we choose to be and how we choose to create our lives. To shift from illusion to awareness, you first must believe that you are responsible for creating your own reality. How you choose to see the world and react to the world is up to you. When you intend to respond from a conscious state of being through faith, you connect to the goodness of the Divine loving presence within. In the end, Love always conquers illusion, fear and chaos. Staying in a state of conscious unconditional love is the bridge from illusion to awareness.
Each of us must hold the space of love, compassion, and mercy, and know there is a reason for everything beyond our understanding. 💜Blessings c
Healing From The Soul
July 24, 2023
Everyone wants to be happy, healthy and loved; in our world today, excessive busyness, negativity, and even entitlement is running amuck. For many, being overwhelmed and frustrated is becoming the norm and making it so hard to thrive, that even our Soul is tired. Negative vibrations in the world around us distract us from looking inward to our high-heart that resides in the Soul – the living entity that resides inside each of us.
The high-heart is about remembering who we are and that we are not just a physical body or just a spiritual being, but a multidimensional Divine being here on a Divine journey to create from a feeling of unconditional love. When we tune into our high-heart, we find peace, harmony and gratitude in our creation.
The Soul is our spiritual spark, which is Divine and eternal, bliss and understanding, and is filled with Mother/Father God’s knowledge. When we give the right energy to our Soul, the Soul awakens to its own divinity and heals the body, heart, and mind automatically. Our Soul also renews, inspires, brings deeper peace, and a connection to the Divine. When a person’s Soul is strengthened in this way, it empowers us to transform our lives from the inside out, instead of running on automatic; a strengthened Soul can positively affect every aspect of life. 💜Blessings
Energetic Shield
July 17, 2023
Creating an energetic shield to protect your energy. When you connect with others—whether it’s a passing conversation or sharing of a living space—you’re engaging in some form of an energy exchange. Placing an energetic shield around your body stops negative energies from saturating yours, further preventing pain from developing and keeping others from draining your energy.
Sit for one to two minutes and envision a bright light (any color your choose) sparking inside your upper abdomen. It will shine so bright that the light expands out through all areas of your body. your body will be saturated even to your auric body. It’s like placing a comforting blanket over you that keeps you warm and centered in your true power.
Test this out by doing it every day for two weeks, trying different colors if you like. If you see a difference, or you notice that you like to envelop your body in one color over another, stick with what feels good.
As different situations call for different means of grounding, healing, and balancing, your preferences might change over time. So long as you take care of your energy, your energy will take care of you.

HO’OPONOPONO: A BEAUTIFUL HAWAIIAN TEACHING ABOUT FORGIVENESS
July 10, 2023
People who struggle with the concept of forgiveness– both for themselves and for others– often find comfort in a deeply healing age-old practice that comes from Hawai’i. The beautiful Hawaiian teaching for Forgiveness is called “Ho’oponopono” (pronounced HO-oh-Po-no-Po-no), and it’s lovely.
This ancient Hawaiian practice of forgiveness functions as both a communication concept for reconciliation and a tool for restoring self-love and balance. In solo practice, it can also work sort of like a mantra for self-love. And, even more surprisingly, it’s super simple.
The word ho’oponopono roughly translates to “cause things to move back in balance” or to “make things right.” It’s a very zen-like concept. (In native Hawaiian language, “pono” means balance, in the sense of “life.” When things are in balance, nothing is off, so to speak.
Accordingly, chanting this phrase over and over is a powerful way to cleanse the body of guilt, shame, haunting memories, ill will, or bad feelings that keep the mind fixated on negative thoughts.
As a forgiveness practice, it is also deeply resonant, as it tends to penetrate our inner monologue over time.
“I’M SORRY, PLEASE FORGIVE ME, THANK YOU, I LOVE YOU”
To “cleanse” yourself of bad feelings, chant the following mantra repeatedly while sitting with your eyes closed, as a kind of meditation.
“I’m sorry, Please forgive me, Thank you, I love you.”
That’s it. And isn’t that something we all need to hear? “I’m sorry, Please forgive me, Thank you, I love you.” 💜Blessings
Essence of Abundance
July 3, 2023
For me, the essence of abundance symbolizes the gratitude in my heart, of sharing my love and gifts with all in the material world. Money influences each of us in different ways but energetically to me, abundance is my connectedness to making life simpler. I am guided that when we love and appreciate what we are doing authentically and gracefully we are happier and more abundant. When we open to Divine love and light, it inspires us in heart and soul to open to a state of connectedness with everyone and everything. Then and only then does money come easily through our life calling and purpose.
Imagine you’re on a spiritual quest to tap into the heart and soul of money and create a magnificent life. The idea of going on a spiritual quest suggests that you are enlisting the power within you to change your life in miraculous and soulful ways.
For many it represents our deepest desires — survival, comfort, security, enjoyment, status, freedom, and more. When we want more money, it is really the experience money provides that we are seeking. And the essence of the experiences we are seeking is love.
💜Blessings c
First Chakra
June 26, 2023
This week is about opening up your first chakra with Archangel Michael. Michael holds the space of safety, stability, security and protection. The root chakra or Muladhara chakra is the first of the seven main chakras, located around the coccyx or tailbone. It governs our basic needs for good health in the body and mind, a sense of connection to Mother Earth, as well as feeling supported and stable in the physical world. This chakra is the grounding connection to our planet where our senses and security are stored to be stable and healthy. Each of us need this energy to be flowing freely regarding any issues that you have going on in life, even if you’ve had a problem with feeling secure in the past, these challenges can be overcome by working in the first chakra so that they are resolved gracefully.
Repeat after me: My first chakra is open to the perfect healthy state of balance and safety. 💜Blessings c
Success and Achievement
June 19, 2023
The Energy this week is all about succeeding and achieving anything, so set your mind to create. Success and achievement may look like great outer success, or it may be a deeper inner change that you’ve been exerting a lot of effort toward.
As you experience success, enjoy the sense of accomplishment that comes with it and let yourself be open to victory on every level.
Repeat after me: I am achieving great things within myself and in the world. I see myself as achieving in many wonderful ways, even now. 💜Blessings c
Strategy
June 12, 2023
This is the optimal time for setting up a very specific strategy for achieving your goals and intentions. You can write about the direction you want to go in, but also consider any potential change in the course of your life, that may be needed. Be aware of the particulars regarding your ambitions, write them down, and have the same conscious vision in your minds-eye. Intend to be guided one step at a time and act on the short-term goals needed to make your long-term goals a reality. The energy this week is telling you to spend some time setting things in order. It is time to take full control of your creation and set your sights on the road ahead. 💜Blessings c
Essential Love
June 5, 2023
Today’s blog focuses on the importance of being aware of how essential it is to love unconditionally. I believe that when conditional love is influenced by unconditional love, we are healthier in body, mind, and spirit. When we choose to come from a place of Divine love, it always transforms and cancels our fear, so that compassion can thrive.
When each experience is met with full acceptance; without any resistance, it reveals itself in a more radiant light. Nothing survives in the negative mind when loving self and others without conditions is allowed. Through love we instinctively move away from pain and into grace. Grace is the ability to stand in the space of Spiritual love, to stand on the threshold of trust, until we are moved by God’s grace to a much deeper level of truth, where fear is not center stage. Tapping into a moment of this intelligence will move us toward the energy of not needing to fix, control, resist, or change anything that is outside us. This understanding and its experience will free us and allow our soul to become enlightened.
Unconditional love has no other agenda other than the Divine unification of our Souls transformation into light consciousness. Remember that your first intention for loving unconditionally must be directed inward, and the compassion that you demonstrate toward self will influence your entire being. 💜Blessings c
Creative Process of Inspiration
May 29, 2023
I want to encourage you to develop a creative process that inspires you to become confident in whatever you decide to put your energy into. There is a strong correlation between when we are doing something creative and feeling happy at the same time. I know for me happiness comes from creating new things. I have been putting together a sacred Art Show for July 8th, and I have been so inspired, and I have loads of energy. I believe enhancing one’s creativity will also enhance our well-being.
The steps of happiness interpreted in psychology are described as three distinct elements, these are: positive emotion, engagement, and meaning. These three elements are believed to be more measurable and definitive than happiness.
The creative process doesn’t need to be forced, just inspired. The creative process has often been conceived as a linear process that begins with intention, is followed by the nurturing of ideas, moves into a stage of divine thoughts or insights, and finally, is finished with the development or execution of creative implementation.
💜 Blessings c
Ego Identity
May 22, 2023
An unhealthy ego is in conflict with spiritual consciousness and does not align with Divine inspiration. Ego identity drives us to either a strong sense of self-love or to a strong sense of self-judgement. It can be manifested through confidence or self-doubt. Today I want to talk about creating a healthier ego through consciousness instead of an identity of suffering. A healthy ego identity is being knowledgeable of your strengths, weaknesses, passions, intentions or even your philosophy of life. A healthy identity is the awareness of the truth – what is for your highest good. So instead of seeing the ego as bad and having power over you, see it as a communication device to either work from a place of love or fear. 💜 Blessings c
Joy Is a Spiritual Knowingness That Resonates Within

In the confusion of the process called life, humans are struggling with how to experience their divine birthright of joy. We hope our guidance will help everyone remember Joy is not something to strive to become –it is who you are. We promise you that as you draw forth and integrate more God light into body, mind, and spirit, and as you continue this process of returning to your right state of joy, you are already creating from your true essence. As you actualize your wholeness, it is vital to understand that you are already one with this presence. This presence is your essential nature.
What, then, is joy? It is not simply a peace of mind; joy is more than peace. It is a spiritual knowingness that resonates within your soul. It is knowing that everything is, as humans say, right within the universe. It is the essence of your heart, and when you speak from that essence, you once again connect to the divine within. This connection vibrates from your heart center, lifts you up and fills you with compassion, love and understanding. It is sustained by accepting this simple truth: You are not separate from God, and there is nothing separating you from your own God presence — a connection that always was, is and will be. What could be more joy-filled than embracing this invisible life essence, this joy? Channeled from The Council for Lightworkers. 💜 Blessings c
Manifestation, The Path of Your Intention
May 8, 2023
The universe is always listening, and it wants to support you in achieving your dreams. Get really clear on what it is you are asking for, down to the smallest details. The universe responds to clarity and will deliver the things that you want with greater ease when you have a crystal-clear vision of what you’re calling in. So, it is done… So, it is done… So, it is done. 💜 Blessings c
Divine Love Consciousness
May 1, 2023
Today’s blog focuses on the importance of being aware of how essential it is to love unconditionally. I believe that when conditional love is influenced by unconditional love, we are healthier in body, mind, and spirit. When we choose to come from a place of Divine love, it always transforms and cancels our fear, so that compassion can thrive.
When each experience is met with full acceptance; without any resistance, it reveals itself in a more radiant light. Nothing survives in the negative mind when loving self and others without conditions is allowed. Through love we instinctively move away from pain and into grace. Grace is the ability to stand in the space of Spiritual love, to stand on the threshold of trust, until we are moved by God’s grace to a much deeper level of truth, where fear is not center stage. Tapping into a moment of this intelligence will move us toward the energy of not needing to fix, control, resist, or change anything that is outside us. This understanding and its experience will free us and allow our soul to become enlightened.
Unconditional love has no other agenda other than the Divine unification of our Souls transformation into light consciousness. Remember that your first intention for loving unconditionally must be directed inward, and the compassion that you demonstrate toward self will influence your entire being. 💜 Blessings c
Soul Enlightenment
April 24, 2023
This morning I did a meditation and connected with the Buddhist Goddess of mercy, grace and wisdom, Quan Yin. She is committed to bringing every soul complete peace, bliss, balance and enlightenment. She is a divine guide and our inner source of healing and miracles.
Whether we are ready to heal past griefs or deepen into unconditional self-love and compassion, Quan Yin is here to bless our Spiritual Journey.
She helps transform what no longer serves each of us and empowers us to heal from the wisdom of our Souls.
She is ready to offer you healing, miracles and answers to your prayers.
She asks that you surrender into her gentle, all-encompassing embrace, and give her everything that you wish transmuted through the grace of divine love.

Notice the Miracles of Each Moment
April 10, 2023
Have you ever stopped to look at the world around you and stared in awe and amazement? The shape of a kitten in the clouds, the sight of the sun breaking over the horizon, or the smell of the air when you step outside in the morning. No matter what is happening in your life, take a moment to notice the miracles that surround you each and every day. It is the little things that will make you smile. 💜 Blessings c
Strong Sense Of Self-Worth
April 3, 2023
Having a strong sense of self-worth can empower you in many facets of your life. When you believe you are deserving of all things good, regardless of the circumstances, you will be more likely to ask for what you want. Believing in your value is a crucial element of living a spiritual (successful) life where you choose to honor yourself authentically. Truly valuing yourself allows you to understand and believe you are worthy of what is for your highest good. When you respect yourself, it helps you to avoid compromising your core values and beliefs. Valuing yourself also teaches others to respect you. Research shows that healthy self-esteem is crucial to healthy mental and social wellbeing. Healthy self-worth can create a positive outlook on life and relationships. 💜 Blessings c
Your Body Is A Divine Temple
March 27, 2023
We are taught to think that our bodies are separate from our spiritual evolution, from our history, past experiences, or even our ego structures. When we see our body in its true form expressing Spirit’s Divine perfection, we begin to accept our body with grace. This brings with it, opportunities for Soul growth as well. 💜 Blessings c
BLESSING FOR YOUR BODY TEMPLE
“Body, you are a living, thriving genius. A work of art and a temple to adore. You are a miraculous, fertile ground of creation and creativity. Thank you for everything you do. I love you. I honor you.” -Cathleen L. Balfour
Spiritual Significance of Spring Equinox
March 20, 2023
On Monday, March 20, 2023, the Northern Hemisphere will welcome spring with a new and fresh perspective. This is the time of year when we begin to experience renewed forces of creative energy within. As the darkness diminishes and the light increases we will feel rejuvenated.
In the past few months, we’ve been working to tap into our internal guidance, so that we can live more authentically in our Divine intention.
Now that we are shifting into spring, take the time to celebrate the freshness of life, and raise your energy to regenerate and manifest your dreams.
I invite you to do something symbolic on the Solstice to honor your life in the next few months. Do something fun to celebrate: a ritual, a prayer, a dance, whatever you feel guided to do that will allow your Divine Spirit to shine through. 💜 Blessings c
Consciously Responding vs. Unconsciously Reacting
March 13, 2023
To truly become aware of when we are unconsciously reacting, we must drop into the moment and notice the situation that is triggering us. When we suddenly experience discomfort, anger or anxiety, we are giving all our conscious power away to an outside source.
Reacting becomes a truly destructive emotion when it gets to the point where “aggression” or “desperation” totally takes over everything in the moment. Dealing with healthy anger is a must to work through, but not if you or someone else suffers as a result of the harmful energy it provokes within us or them.
It is not the emotions that make us suffer but the reaction that can harm us, like acting out physically with words or even stuffing down our emotions until we zone out. By unconsciously reacting we get wrapped up in a negative story line, one that most likely involves blame/shame and then next thing you know you are emotionally drained, feel sick, and regret sets in.
“Why do what you will regret? Why bring tears upon yourself? Do only what you do not regret and fill yourself with joy.” Buddha’s Teachings
So, what is the trick to staying in the present moment in conscious energy, without reacting emotionally?
In every moment we have two basic options, we can choose to escalate or deescalate every uncomfortable situation, by consciously living in the present moment. When we are in the present moment, we have some preceptive on how we are feeling good or bad. When we have a clear perspective on our emotional state, we can ask for Divine guidance, tap into our Divine Wisdom, or even just take a deep breath. This is not easy. Not only does it take practice to connect to each moment with Divine intention, but it is imperative to listen with your heart instead of your emotions. If we practice this awareness, we can co-create with a healthier state of being.
“Right Thought, Right Speech, Right Action, Right Livelihood, Right Effort, Right Mindfulness and Right Concentration.” Buddha’s Teachings

Gracefully Asking
March 13, 2023
As we are taught “Ask and you shall receive,” I have learned over the years that we will eventually get what we ask for. The Universe will give us what we seek, so we must intend to create in a graceful, loving manner.
As we embrace our spiritual growth, there will be many things that no longer serve us. We must pay attention to what is not working in our life and take the necessary steps to change it gracefully. Otherwise, you may create a situation that is uncomfortable. So, we must be mindful of what serves our highest good and what does not.
We create our own realities, so let’s do it gracefully. 💜 Blessings c
The Past Brought Me Here
March 3, 2023
The past brought me here, but it is over. The future is not yet created. I aspire to concentrate as much of my attention and effort on the present moment creating only goodness in my mind and heart. Everything I need is already within me. 💜 Blessings c
Growing With Courage
February 24, 2023
Take a moment to remember something that you have outgrown and had the courage to recognize and change it.
As I further explore my own individual growth, I realize how each of us is responsible for the success that we create in our lives. I believe courage is essential to this process. Any type of change can upset our comfort zone and cause disarray, but it can also inspire us to grow. Others may not understand or even embrace our changes, but when we have the courage to make decisions for our highest good, we become more authentic. I teach empowerment, which means we have to show up every day investing in our best self and then come back the next day and do it again. When it comes to creating change, courage is not optional. Without courage we stay stagnant, with it, success is created. 💜 Blessings c
An Inspiring Adventure
February 17, 2023
I have just returned from a remarkable trip with Paul in Santa Fe, Ojo Caliente Spa, and Taos, New Mexico. I experienced some of the most powerful miraculous moments of my life on this trip, that I will hold close to my heart. I was awakened even more to my purpose here on earth as a Indigo Soul. I am filled with gratitude for the inspiration that I have gained from this experience. I endeavor to embrace my practice and quality of life in new and miraculous ways, motivated from a place of increased clarity and balance. One reason I took this journey was to manifest my dreams and desires into reality. I will continue to integrate in heart and soul, as I move forward on my journey.
I’m so thankful for my time with Paul. He is my anchor and an incredibly supportive husband. He inspires me to embrace the powerful woman that I am.
In the eight days I spent in New Mexico, I tapped into years of forgotten knowledge from not only my guidance but other cultures as well. It enhanced my understanding that divine inspiration comes from within. I hold a space of more grace for who I am, through this new level of consciousness.
One of my favorite Mantra’s is “I am a clear and perfect channel, light is my guide.” Spirit had a miraculous way of showing me my true Soul’s connection on this trip, inspiring my path of enlightenment as I channel Sacred knowledge. I feel a deeper sense of serenity and peacefulness, and I will continue to inspire those who touch my life.
At 63 years of age, I have a crystal clear understanding that life has prepared me for this next phase of my journey; to imagine, create, and share, everything I have learned about the magnificent, mysterious human experience.
I look forward to sharing this journey with you. 💜 Blessings c

The Art Of Setting Boundaries
February 3, 2023
In today’s busy world, with all the things we are expected to get done, it is important to create a healthy and empowered life through the Spiritual Art of setting boundaries. We each deserve and need to set boundaries and clear expectations to create mutually beneficial relationships. With the expectations and pressures put on us not only by ourselves but others as well, it is easy to forget our own health and wellbeing. It is important, however, to make sure that we put ourselves first and are not always available at a moment’s notice. This can create an unequal energy exchange, and unfortunately, over time, this leads to depletion, frustration, resentment, and exhaustion.
Boundaries are an important way of setting the intention for how other people interact with us on an energetic level. They are a way of protecting our energy and providing clear limits around what we are and are not willing to do within our relationships, personal time, or business interactions. When boundaries are honored, there is a healthy energy exchange. With a healthy energy exchange, relationships can grow stronger and spiritually thrive.

Living A More Spiritual Life
January 27, 2023
Growing spiritually requires that you open yourself to your Divine inspiration in each moment. You can think of it as living a more angelic life. I am guided that cherishing each day will not only inspire you but will also give you an infectious energy that will spread to those around you.
I always call upon angels to help guide me to the highest frequency of love and light.

Embracing Your Creative Power
January 20, 2023
No matter how creative we are, eventually we all experience an uninspired period in our lives. Embracing new thoughts and/or learning something new can spark creativity and inspiration. Being open to something different may lead to significant shifts and skill sets that were dormant or needed to be embraced.
I start this process by asking questions that get me inspired and help me tap into my creative power. When I can better understand and picture the greater possibility for growth, change, joy or impact, I open myself to expansion, and this allows me to have a clearer picture of the future I want to create.

Overcoming Obstacles
January 13, 2023
Today I want to talk about overcoming obstacles.
The purpose of obstacles is not to stop us or keep us stuck, but to enrich and expand us in our consciousness which will help us respect our own boundaries as well as others. When we begin to recognize that challenges test our faith in ourselves and others, we can overcome any obstacle. Observing and changing yourself is the only thing you have control of and is how you grow through obstacles gracefully. To see yourself and others through the eyes of love, is a conscious step to evolution. 💜 Blessings c

Creating Healthier Energy
When overwhelmed or anxious, it can be hard to elicit positive feelings. It is most important during these times to be grateful because the effect can snap you out of heavy emotions.
Making a list of what is piling up on your plate is a good place to start. Then after writing the list and burning it, you clear out your psyche to bring in new and healthier energy. When you write down positive affirmations and focus on the good, it reminds you of what is good in your life during chaotic times. It is well-known that possessing a positive outlook and turning circumstances over to a higher power can be profoundly impactful on your attitude.
For me, this takes some of the pressure off what I am manifesting and want to create. And as I keep working toward my manifestations, I maintain faith that the Universe has my back and in Divine timing, I can create what is for my highest good. When I have done all, I can, then I know it is time for me to turn it over to Spirit and allow forces greater than myself to create for my highest good and the highest good of all concerned with harm to no one.
