“THERE ARE MORE IMPORTANT THINGS THAN LIVING”

Dan Patrick, The Texas Lieutenant Governor, made this statement a few weeks ago, which you can imagine, has drawn significant criticism. Of course, he was talking about our current national lockdown situation and how it is affecting business – particularly small businesses – as well as the mental and emotional health of individuals, and ensuring that our solution is not worse than the problem.

I’ve been rolling this provocative statement around in my mind now for several weeks. Is there something (or some things) more important than life? If so, what are they?

For me, the answer is possibly yes. And, one of them that is at least equally important to life, is quality of life.

We are given our first breath coming out of the womb by our Creator as well as continuing breaths and ensuing life. At some point, perhaps age of discernment, or age of maturity, we each become responsible for the quality of our life. Unfortunately for most of us, and no one really alerted us to this fact – you are responsible for both the quality of your life, as well as how your life goes!! No one even told us that this assignment was one day imminent!

It is no wonder then, that so many people are not ready or willing to really and honestly fully accept this obligation! We were not primed or even equipped for this hard fact – it wasn’t in the instruction manual we received with the first breath. Ok, what Instruction Manual? You know the Instruction Manual – for how to be successful as a human. I didn’t find mine until I was 50 years old and began working with the Universal Kabbalah! Hopefully many of you discovered your manual much sooner!!!???!!!

Kabbalah tells us there are 10 aspects to life and quality of life. When the energy is balanced in these aspects, we live a prosperous, abundant life overflowing with joy, as we fulfill our life purpose (aka destiny); while on the way, we make a significant contribution to our fellow man. When the energy is not balanced in these 10 aspects, the result is less than illustrious, and we are at risk of living the wrong life – and certainly not reaching the fulfillment of our destiny.

Fast forward to 2020 and Covid-19. A world-wide pandemic which has millions of people on our planet back to basics, living life moment by moment, in our homes, most of us not working, without the normal guarantees and even worse, worrying about losing the physical foundation that each of us has worked so diligently to establish.

So now what – what remains – where are we today without the all the norms we are so accustomed to? First, we have life left – today – without guarantee of tomorrow, next week or next month. Well, there never were any guarantees, were there? Although most of us were not really in touch with fact that until the last 4-5 weeks. Covid-19 has given us the opportunity to come face to face with the fragility of life as well as the quality of how we are living it! And we each have the ability to define and even redefine what quality of our life means.

We may desire to go back to the old normal, but I suspect that is fantasy thinking. I suggest that we would be wise if we decide to cultivate a new normal – an updated status quo that allows for flexibility and agility in our thinking. I know, it’s not familiar, but nothing is right now so why not take this time to dive deep, and redesign your life to reflect the quality you are meant to live? Mentally, emotionally, spiritually and physically.

What needs to transform? What do you need to change in your mind to create a new, solid, adaptable Foundation? I for one, enjoy and am fostering more mental agility, more mental flexibility, more mental openness, more mental curiosity, more mental graciousness, more self honesty, more compassion, more loving-kindness, and yes, even more beauty in my mind.

Are there more important things than living? Ultimately, you are the only one who can answer this question for yourself.

I am holding you in my heart.

Sending You Love and Light,

THE CHOICE IS YOURS – HOW TO PROACTIVELY MANAGE YOUR STRESS

You may have heard me say this – we have choice.  We always have choice.  It is part of being human.  But now, as the choices are becoming more limited/restricted and the resulting stress is pandemic, it may feel like there is little or no choice.  Or, we may recognize the choices, but it is difficult to decide between them because none of the options seems much better than the other.  Sound familiar?

I will say to you, never has choice been more important to you and your quality of life.  Why is this?  Because I am literally observing people do one of two things:
~ Either choose to make the best of things, be positive, bring love and compassion for themselves and others into their daily lives, thereby reducing and managing stress, or
~ Choose to be disillusioned, upset, becoming increasingly worried stressed about things that are beyond their control.
It is important to understand that actively exercising timely choice in in our lives, results in enhanced discernment about what we can control and manage and what we cannot.

Let me bottom line this for you, from my perspective.  The only thing we can truly control is ourselves.  And when have true self-understanding, we can gain control in our lives, resulting in our ability to respond vs. react.  This allows the best choice to become lucidly clear (even when none of the options seem viable or favorable).

We may not always like our choices – AND we always have choice.  When we consistently, consciously exercise choice, we experience feelings of freedom and empowerment. Remember no choice is a choice.  Not making a choice and letting things just happen, nearly always results in the experience of disempowerment, discouragement, feeling loss of control, and overwhelming stress.

Not making a choice is a choice!  Another thing I observe in this area of making choices is that some people have a tendency to analyze and gather information so that they can make the best possible choice.  This often becomes a stalling strategy, due to concern or fear of making the wrong choice.  For people who find themselves here, I recommend an internal self-chat and setting a deadline by when to consciously decide.

Yes, there are always ensuing results from whatever choice we make, but once we make a decision and put it into motion, we have the opportunity to gain additional information about that choice.  If new information indicates it was not the best one, we can make a new choice!  It’s honestly that simple!  Unfortunately, our ‘perfectionist’ often gets involved, and slows down the decision making process.

When we don’t exercise conscious choice, we can rapidly move into survival, vs. the ability to thrive.  Survival is related to fear – flight or fight – the old brain response.  And even though many of us in our current unfamiliar environment are paring down to a new restricted level of living, we do not have to reside in fear – and, it is a choice.

When we use tools to keep our brains in the cognitive area and the pre-frontal cortex, this allows us to make good decisions.  Fear on the other hand puts us into the animal state.  And when the fear crops up, because it does (and it will continue to in this current environment filled with tough choices), it is important that you go back to what you know work.  Keep things as simple and easy as possible right now – breathing exercises, meditation, exercise, eating well, restful sleep, …  You already know what it is for you!

Making wise, consistent (daily), small choices builds a positive continuum for your life that will a new solid foundation.  Especially right now when so many of us are in some form of isolation and severely restricted as to who we see in person, who we can touch physically, and what we do both for work to generate income and for pleasure and relaxation.

I totally agree with giving ourselves a week or two to relax and unwind.  But after that, then what?  I know if I don’t make the effort to:

  • eat well,
  • exercise regularly,
  • wake up well rested,
  • consciously breathe
  • look my best,
  • keep my environment clean and tidy,

then my spirits are not nearly as positive as when I do make this effort.  I like looking at myself when I look good – its that simple.  I love my environment when it looks good.  Its easier to manage the daily stressors when I eat well and get enough rest.  My whole physical system works much more efficiently when I take full breaths.  We as humans are visual and respond to our environments – both internally and externally.

  • What are the small choices you can make to enhance each day this week?
  • What choices will nurture your soul and your physical being right now?
  • What can you do hour by hour that will assist you in knowing you have had a productive day when you fall asleep tonight?
  • Projects you have never had the time to start (or finish)?
  • Organization that you have been putting off?
  • People you have not connected with for some time?
  • Who have you not told that you admire them, appreciate them, love them …. (fill in the blank)?
  • What do you love doing that you can do while you are at home and not working?

There has never been a better time than now!

Have a wonderful week, full of conscious, effective, life-enhancing choices to proactively lower stress.

I am holding you in my heart.

LOVE, FAITH & GRATITUDE CAN’T BE QUARANTINED

Like so many of you I have been settling down at home and learning how to manage and do my share in slowing down the rapid world-wide spread of COVID-19.

I find it so interesting that to manage this virus we must now isolate – which is generally not recommended in any situation when people need to be united in the positive.  And yet, at the dawning of the new paradigm, we are being required to do just that – isolate – while at the same time we must summon faith and grace to unite, as we face the unknown.

We have a choice – we can unite in our fear, we can unite in our distress over our loss of income, our unilateral loss of freedom, our loss of community, our immanent loss of friends and family – the list goes on….  Or, we can rise higher and (to quote a friend of mine) ‘fly above’ the consuming cloud of fear and anxiety, and chose to love.

I have a few things I’d like to share with you this week about love and faith.

First, it is as easy to live from a place of faith and gratitude as it is to live from a place of fear.  To do this though, requires conscious choice.  When you live from a place of gratitude and peace, you can draw upon peace and then you have faith!  One leads to the other.  When we are able to consciously (and collectively) thank God/the Universe for what we have, we gather momentum for the positive.  As we do this, God/the Universe gives us grace for now and for today – not tomorrow.  As we are grateful for today, it expands into grace for tomorrow.  When we work to develop this consistency we ensure the foundation of on-going grace in our lives.

Second, our capacity to love is limited only by how much we love ourselves!  Although we often behave opposite, in truth, we cannot love another more than we love ourselves – just as we cannot respect another more than we respect ourselves.  Otherwise is it false and disingenuous love.  Obviously, there is a lot of the disingenuous masquerading as the real thing out there!

Third, it appears that COVID-19 attacks the immune system.  The key to the immune energies is held in the heart and the heart chakra, which also manage our healing ability and ability to love.  So I say, “Thank God that Love, Faith and Gratitude cannot be quarantined!”  And in this, we have the keys to staying healthy, vital and strong.  LOVE.  Self-love, so we can love others, unconditionally as much as it is possible for conditional, imperfect humans to do this.  Ceaselessly, engaging in acts of love.  First for ourselves and then for others.  And I submit, this is part of our true work in this imposed isolation – to go within and begin to release and forgive those areas where we do not love ourselves fully, wholly and unconditionally.

If this feels like too large of a task right now, I understand.  Begin with gratitude.  Gratitude for whatever you have to be grateful.  It will expand. As you express gratitude, you will start to relax and breath.  Your physical body will respond almost immediately, resulting in a higher ability to function.  The benefits of expressing gratitude and positive thinking are so well-documented that I am not going to elaborate here on either the science or the metaphysics – AND I do want to invite you to practice gratitude every day.  Simply stated, gratitude will open a pathway to expanding your peace of mind.  Expand gratitude, reduce fear.  It’s that simple – and its your choice.

As your gratitude expands – true gratitude, expressed from your heart, your peace of mind expands and faith begins to take the place where fear once resided.  As faith grows, so does your ability to think and function at your optimal.

COVID-19 is bringing us into the now – into the moment – in a way that has perhaps never happened before on the planet.  Nearly everyone world-wide is sharing in some version of this experience.  In the now.  What an amazing moment.

What do you want to do with this moment?  It’s up to you.  It’s up to each of us.

As we are being asked to stay home through April and now into May, I’d like to invite you to join me for a series of Meditations for Health, Balance & Peace of Mind, which I am offering on Zoom twice a week, Tuesdays and Thursdays, 6:30-8:00 pm PDT.  These meditations will last approximately 1 hour, after which I will answer questions for ½ hour.  This service is complimentary – no charge (donations will be accepted if anyone choses).

During this time we will also be publishing our Newsletters more often.  Perhaps as often as weekly.  So we invite you to stay tuned if these conversations are of interest to you.

Sending you Love and Light,

CURRENT MESSAGE FROM THE LIVING LIGHT FOUNDATION

We are alive and functioning in a very interesting time on the planet.  In the face of all of this, two things are vitally important.  First, it is imperative that we do not forget to celebrate and be grateful daily for all levels of our aliveness and health.  Second, that we do not forget to function at our highest level.  I say this because right now it is rather tempting to succumb to fear.  

Today we are facing the Coronavirus and its ensuing debilitating effects on our world, our people, our economy, and our existence.  In the last few days, each of our lives has been changed in ways we could not have imagined a few weeks ago.  And I suspect this is going to continue for several months.

Fear is everywhere, and some fear that is coming up has merit, like: do I have enough supplies (including food, water, and necessary perishables); will I be able to pay my rent/mortgage, car payment, bills; what about my job; what about my older parents/family members/friends who have higher risk factors; and the list goes on.  Almost overnight, we are in a new reality that is affecting us individually and collectively on the planet.  

The best way to handle fear – true fear, real fear – is to look it in the eye, face it, and handle it.  So do the best you can to ensure you have the food, water and perishables you need for the next 4 weeks or so.  Now more than ever, take care of your health – follow the guidelines of healthy food, restful sleep, exercise – although you are probably not going to the gym for your workout.  If you have been part of the classes with the Mystery School, the time is now to fully engage with your rituals, prayer and meditation – not from a place of neediness, but from a place of establishing and solidifying your foundation and strength in life.  And most of all, be honest about where you feel the fear and face it head on – do what you can to be prepared, which helps diminish the fear.  Allow yourself to feel the fear and move through it so you can be proactive and move into action.  Develop a plan and a 2nd plan and a 3rd plan if need be.  Having a solid, viable plan with a backup plan to manage things in your life almost always alleviates fear.

Here at The Living Light Foundation we are moving forward.  I am not giving in to the fear that’s currently out there in the world.  I am acknowledging it, dancing with it, and harnessing the fear-based energy to accomplish specific things in my life.  Because we are being asked to not go out, not meet in groups, etc. (stores and restaurants are closed), this is an excellent time to catch up in my life and business, reorganize, and work on the projects that I have been too busy for.  It is also a great time to set new goals, recalibrating for what the world is going to need in two months and six months from now.  As of now, we are in a new world – it will never be the same again – it is going to be new and different. 

That being said, I am moving forward selectively with some classes and events being held at The Institute of Awakened Mastery, inviting your intelligent and wise participation.  The reason I am making this choice available is because we as initiates know how to make a difference in our own lives which can immediately affect others.  10 times, 100 times, 1000 times.  

Never has there been a more important time for each of us to make a wise choice about our mental and emotional attitudes.  And equally, never has there been a more important time for each of us to make the best choice about whether or not we are going to gather in a select group outside of our homes for the right purpose – this must be an individual choice based on you as an individual and your individual responsibilities.  

What I do know is that if you attend Max Meditation or The Kabbalah Reunion, for example, we will be focused on not only your health and well-being, but also in taking the energy that we co-create when we are together and sending that joy into our neighborhoods and city that so desperately need it right now.  Not only can we refuel and build our own energy exponentially by refueling together, but we can share that energy intentionally as a group with thousands of people in need.  

These are my thoughts and my desires: Stay healthy, stay safe, make the right choices for you, and stay tuned with me.  Short of a cancellation of the posted events due to more unforeseen circumstances, I invite you to consider joining us if this feels productive and wise to you.  

If you ANY have symptoms, DO NOT come to my center. For the sake of everybody, be smart. If you are coughing or sneezing, DO NOT come to classes or private sessions until your symptoms are completely GONE. GONE = you have not had a fever for at least 72 hours and you are not coughing or sneezing at all.

I will continue to teach in person and see clients in person. If you register for a class and have symptoms, you can ask for a refund or transfer to the next class offered.

Excellence vs. Perfection

As many of you know who are following my monthly newsletters, I am teaching the 10-month Universal Kabbalah Ascension Class.  One of the challenges that I find many spiritual seekers have who are working on themselves and their lives is that of perfectionism.  Focusing on perfection will nearly always result in failure, because to be human is to be not perfect!  Not ever!  We are not designed to be perfect!  In fact, striving constantly for perfectionism often leads to the experience of overwhelm and even discouragement, and many people find themselves reluctant to start new projects because they know the end result will not be ‘perfect’.

If perfectionism is something you deal with, I urge you to replace it with working to attain excellence, and set your own bar of achievement, based on where you are in each area of your life.   In other words, compare your progression with yourself, not with anyone else.

Here are some attitude adjustments you can make to assist you to move from the need to be perfect into achieving excellence:

Excellence                                        vs.                                         Perfectionism

Willing to be wrong                                                                  Having to be Right

Accepting / Faith                                                                      Resisting

Trusting & believing in the positive                                       Skeptical

Being inclusive (including others)                                         Being self-focused

Consistent & diligent                                                                Serious

Being in the flow                                                                       Hard work

Commitment to your dream                                                   Commitment to someone else’s dream for you

Disclosure with discernment                                                  Withholding

Spontaneous                                                                             Controlled

Owning 100%                                                                            Settling for less than 100%

Confident                                                                                   Doubting

Enjoying the process                                                                Concerned only with the end result

One of my favorite mentors and teachers, Ipsissimus David Lanyon, Modern Mystery School, recently made this statement in a conversation we were having: Excellence cannot happen in your life without Commitment.  Commitment is the foundation for everything. 

If you have been committed to perfection, I invite you to change that commitment to excellence, and enjoy the new fruits in your life.

Fantasy vs. Reality

One big objective in life if you want to achieve your destiny (and be maximally effective while doing it), is to align your presentation to both yourself and others with what you hold as most important.  Another way of saying this is, “Tell the truth to myself and others.”

The way to know what you have been holding as most important is to look honestly at your results.

When your tangible measurable results are consistent with what you hold as most important – TAKE IT PERSONALLY – OWN IT – KNOW THAT YOU CREATED THIS RESULT!

When your tangible, measurable results are inconsistent with what you think you hold as most important, the following steps need to be taken:

  1. Stay away from the victim position. Hold that I am 100% accountable for creating this result.  Take the position that no one (including myself) is at fault or to blame about this.
  2. Check yourself for the presence of either guilt or resentment regarding this result.  If you are experiencing guilt you are protecting your fantasy about yourself.  If you are experiencing resentment, you are protecting your fantasy about another.
  3. Look at what result you did create – other than the one you wanted.  What is it that you allowed to be more important than creating what you really wanted?
  4. Look for any beliefs/positions you held that did not support you in creating the desired result.  Let go of any unworkable positions/beliefs.
  5. Check the intensity of your commitment to creating what you hold as most important.  Have you been deceiving yourself about your degree of commitment?
  6. Reaffirm your commitment to the result you want to create.  Challenge yourself to full participation.  GO FOR IT!
Working with reality (vs. fantasy) does require a new level of recognizing and telling ourselves the truth.  When we tell ourselves the truth – the real truth (without guilt or resentment) – it will bring us into the now.  And the NOW is the only place from where we can make a sustainable change.

I invite you to look at your life through this new filter of fantasy vs. reality.  I trust it will reveal some very interesting things to you about you.

Sending you Love and Light,
Verla Wade & The Living Light Foundation

Unproductive Positions, Stopping Places, & Walls

In Kabbalah and other classes I often talk about the ways we block the light – how we slow down our own progress and impede our own progression.  Each of us has plenty of these ineffectual positions, walls and stopping places.  I have found that there are certain walls many people have in common that must be overcome if one is going to successfully fulfill their destiny.  Most of these are in the form of unproductive positions and beliefs.

In order to achieve your destiny you must:

  1. Choose fulfillment as a key foundation for life rather than survival.
  2. Release other people’s agenda for you and own the idea that there is no particular way that anyone should be.
  3. Realize that what is past is past and has no bearing on the now.
  4. Release the belief “it has to be perfect” no one can consistently live up to this measurement.  It is guaranteed to sabotage you and/or your health, peace of mind, and wellbeing.
  5. Release the belief that “what I want is not okay, it isn’t good enough.” Or “it is just too ambitious.”
  6. Tell yourself the truth about what is most important to you and release the position “I don’t know what is most important to me.”  You do know and are keeping this a secret from yourself!
  7. Operate as a person who is in the process of creating his/her destiny (what is most important).  The most important thing is to create a truly supportive environment for yourself.
  8. While you are in the process of achieving your destiny, a number of potential stopping places/walls exist.  Some of these are:
  • Discouragement/lack of faith/lack of belief in yourself
  • Looking back and longing for what was (and remembering a “rose-colored” version of the past)
  • Bogging down in incompletes
  • Greener pastures – I would be more fulfilled/happier in a different job, relationship, city, etc.
  • “Wanting to want to change” vs. actually taking the action steps necessary to change
  • “Birds of a feather” – surrounding yourself with people who will buy your excuses to stay reasonable and comfortable and live smaller than your destiny
  • Not setting new goals that are consistent with what is most important to you and in alignment with your destiny
  • Buying into other people’s values in order to fit in and belong
  • Letting your clarity of purpose and vision for who you are slip
Mastering these obstacles in life equals achieving your greatness.  No one said it would be easy, but it will be worth it!  Keep persevering and know that everything your heart desires is on the other side of these walls!

Reclaiming your Divine Nature & Living as a Citizen of the Galaxy

The first class I took in the mystery school was the Galactic Activation – in 2000 it was 2.5 days long.  I benefitted tremendously both short term and long term from the information in this class as well as the activation.

Why?  Because it was (and is) all the teachings about

  • becoming a Citizen of the Galaxy –
  • moving from the matrix control of our planet into the universal system
  • and in the process, reactivating and reclaiming your original divine blueprint
  • while at the same time, managing your physical body and its health needs and requirements in these new energies.  Which, by the way, is in full alignment with the New Paradigm, or Shamballah (as some prefer to call it, or referred to by the ancients as the Garden of Eden)!
We are eternal spiritual beings having a physical experience.  Nearly everyone I talk with these days agrees with this statement.  When you look at this statement, there is a lot to it.  Eternity for one – the implication that we came from somewhere, and after this physical lifetime, we are going somewhere.  It’s easy enough to say we came from God, since we are spiritual beings, and for the purposes of this conversation then, we are having a physical experience.  But for what purpose?  Is there a purpose?

The mystery school teachings would say we are each here individually for a unique purpose.  AND when enough of these purposes are actualized by enough individuals, we will achieve what has been referred to as the New Paradigm – Peace on Earth – where everyone and everything is living sustainably, in joy and harmony!  Sound too good to be true?  It’s not.  And if you are reading this, you are probably one of the individuals who are ready to understand and actualize your purpose!

So then when we unpack having a physical experience it becomes evident that there is a lot we can do while we are here in the physical body.  So many people I work with are asking for assistance in recognizing their life work/purpose and destiny.  They feel a calling, and are urged internally to do more and different.  Let me say that the majority of these are people whose lives are working and are successful by all standards – and yet they know that there is something more.

This “calling” is causing a “waking up” on the planet.  So many of us are waking up to the fact that we are here to fulfill our destiny and intuit that while doing that, we will make a contribution to others and to the planet as a whole.  Yes – these are big visions – big callings – often intimidating, but still there, urging us forward.  And inside, the calling comes as a quiet voice – relentless – through the humdrum of daily life, urging us to keep looking, keep seeking, to uncover who we truly are and what we are here to really do this lifetime.

If you are feeling this, I strongly recommend that you look into and consider the Galactic Activation Class on August 3-4 in Seattle.  Besides the activation on Saturday evening which aligns you with the New Paradigm energies, making living life in the physical easier, this class is packed with useful information about living the physical life as a citizen of the galaxy, embracing the new energies that are rapidly coming onto the planet.  Sunday is filled with exercises and teachings that will help you further integrate the universal and planetary shifts and transitions happening.

Please contact me if you would like more information or would like to talk about how this might fit into your personal development.

Holding Onto What is Holding You Back & How to Transform – Illusion vs. Reality

I recently made a statement to a group of people I am working with in Kabbalah. The statement was “Some of you don’t really want to change, you want to want to change!”

As you can imagine this was a bit confrontive for some folks in my audience. ‘Wanting to want to’ is a dilemma I experience often in people. Good, honest, sincere, individuals, who are seeking transformation, but have not actually stepped up to the plate of being ready do the real work. Unfortunately, buying a self-help book or attending a class may not change this situation because the solution is not ultimately outside of the person!

After making this bold statement, I was asked, “how can I change this situation I find myself in of ‘wanting to want to?’” While it is not possible to give a pat answer because what is occurring for each individual is unique and may require a personal conversation, I can share some information I know to be true in these circumstances as well as offer a solution.

First, you must be willing to move from illusion into reality and let go of your attachment to what is holding you back.

Second, when someone ‘wants to want’ something, the basic motivation to make a change is missing. I often find that the reason this motivation is missing is because of the following:

Third, these individuals are lacking clarity about what is most important. I do not believe that most people are lazy; rather, I find that they are unclear about what is most important in their life!

In other words, they have not identified what the value or benefit would be for them to make the change that they ‘want to want to’ make! The effort to make the change looms large, and the old patterns are comfortable and easy. If you are going to change, grow, and develop, you must expand your comfort zone – this can be challenging and even scary sometimes.

If you are desiring change, and it was easier to accomplish, you would have already made the change! Given that your next level of transformation requires a new level of clarity, you must discover and clarify your inner and outer motivations and benefits for making the changes required to move forward.

Getting Ready for Change – Shifting from ‘Wanting to Want to’ to Ready to Change

Ok, so let’s say you have figured out what the benefit is for you to transformation and you are now very motivated to change. What’s next?

Fully engage your 5 physical senses because what you see, visualize, or imagine, you can create
1st: see yourself in the new pattern – living the new lifestyle – see yourself transformed
2nd: feel what this transformation will feels like as you are living the new reality
3rd: what are you and others around you saying To clarify, what can you hear as you imagine
this new picture of you?
4th: what is the smell associated with this image?
5th: is there taste?
The more you can engage the 5 physical senses in this new visualized image of you and/or your new behavior, the sooner it will become a reality.

Forgive yourself when you fall in to the old patterns and refocus on your visualization using the 5 physical senses.

Finally, and very important, find everything in your life that you are sincerely grateful for and begin expressing your gratitude now – in your conversation with others, with yourself, in prayer, in meditation – feel, experience, and express gratitude continually.

These 4 basic steps will assist you in making significant and meaningful change in your life:
1. Determine the benefit to you for making the change – it has to be real and must be your benefit (not someone else’s)
2. Use your 5 senses as you visualize your new reality
3. Forgive yourself when you find yourself backsliding, turn the page, and refocus (without any negative self-talk!)
4. Feel and express gratitude for everything that is working in your life

Six things you can do this spring to increase your prosperity for 2019.

Prosperity and abundance seems to be at the forefront of many people’s minds right now – how to stabilize and increase the flow.  There are many factors to wealth and prosperity and one of the most important keys is developing and maintaining a strong foundation for life.

We all attract and flow light as a part of the human energy system.  The six steps below will not only increase your abundance and prosperity, but also your health, vitality, and the quality of light you are able to receive and share with others.

1.    Clear your physical space.  I suggest you start with a walk-through review of your living and working space using fresh eyes:
•    Where is there clutter?  This blocks the flow of energy and light coming to you
•    In the closets – what do you no longer wear?  What no longer fits?  What are you no longer attracted to?  Are you using closets to store things you no longer use?  Is there n organization system you could invest in to make better and cleaner use of a closet (for instance)?
•    What do you no longer use?  If I have not used it for a year, then you are unlikely to use it. Perhaps it is time to be sold or donated to someone who has use for it.
•    What is broken and needs repair?  What is broken beyond repair?  What is broken and you are unwilling to have repaired?   If it cannot be repaired, it needs to go into the trash.  If it can be repaired, but honestly you are not going to do it, then put it back into the flow – someone will have a use for it.
Now begin to clean out everything that you do not use, can no longer wear, repair for your use what is broken, sell or toss, etc.  Put all usable items that you no longer use back in the flow.  This cleans the energy in your environment for more abundance to flow to you.

Once you have cleaned out the closets, drawers, basement, spare bedroom, crawl spaces, attic, garage, storage unit, etc., then you can evaluate if a thorough spring cleaning is a good next step.  If you feel overwhelmed by doing the deeper cleaning work yourself, consider hiring someone.  Make sure they do the deep cleaning – curtains, blinds, carpets, air vents in the ceilings and floors, replace furnace filters, wash windows inside and out.  If you are going to manifest abundance, the new energy comes more easily into an organized, sparkling, clean space.

Begin to organize your things so they look neat and are easy to use, store, and use again; which takes some thought.  This includes clothes in closets, items in kitchen and bathroom cupboards and drawers, office spaces, dining and living rooms.  Bedrooms above all need to support your deep and restful sleep.  Make sure the placement of furniture is attractive as well as opens the flow.  Where is your meditation space and altar, and does it support your spiritual work?  Your altar should be cleaned weekly by you only, to honor the high spiritual energy that comes through it and out to you, your life and work.

For those of you who love your crystals and have them placed around your living and working space, as well as wear them, please give them a regular light spritz with the mystery school holy water.   I recommend clearing personal jewelry daily and spritzing crystals in living and working spaces weekly.  They have consciousness and are constantly working for you – and they really appreciate this thoughtfulness on your part.

2.    Balance your money accounts regularly so know where they are.  It is important that you know where you are financially – you are here in the physical dimensions.  For you to ask God/Spirit/the Universe to send you abundance and flow, you need the specifics of your current financial information!  Know the balances in your accounts at least every month, if not every week, or even every day.  This is not so that you become attached to your money, but rather that you know and understand your current financial position.  Your financial abundance is part of your foundation.  Prosperity cannot build on a weak foundation.  Knowing the truth about your current financial situation is part of having a strong foundation.  This knowledge provides the energy and resources from which to create more abundance and prosperity.

3.    Determine what abundance and prosperity means to you – and not just in terms of finances.  Include health, energy and each of the key areas of your life.  You need to know what it is you want to create in order to ensure that you are creating it!  We always create what is going on in our mind – but we are not always aware of what our mind is creating!   It order to become a conscious co-creator, it is vital that you know what you mean when you talk about and refer to abundance and prosperity.

4.    Look honestly at what you have in your life currently that is working for you and recognize it all by expressing gratitude.   Acknowledge yourself for your role in creating everything that’s working and express gratitude for all that is working and going well in your life.  Gratitude is a key aspect of creating and maintaining abundance.  As well I recommend you thank God for being a partner in your co-creation.

5.    Set a vision for your next level of abundance and prosperity.  As you do this, your vision needs to include touchstones with the 5 senses.  How will it feel, is there a taste or a smell, etc.?  In this visualize, note how you manage your financial prosperity, including the excess.  Are you paying off old bills?  Creating a money market account?  Fully paying your credit cards each month when they arrive? How are you up-leveling your lifestyle?  Where do you as a lightworker want to make a contribution on the planet?  What and who will you invest in?  Perhaps the first contribution you make is in strengthening yourself – investing in your own education as a Lightworker.  It is important to have a plan for how you are going to serve with some of the overflow of abundance that you create in your life.

6.    Invest in yourself. What is your vision for yourself and your life work?  Have you received the Life Activation?  Or perhaps The Empower Thyself Class is next on your list.  Or Healers Academy May 17-21?  Or Healers Academy 2 in November, 2019.  Or maybe you have been doing a lot of classes with the Modern Mystery School and have neglected the balance that is recommended through the private sessions.  If that is the case, I recommend The Hermetic Path Rebalancing Sessions, or The Core Will Infusion, or the Angel Code Healing – just to name a few.  Consider contacting me and let’s talk and develop a personal plan for you that will assist you in your goal of increasing your abundance and prosperity using all the tools found in the lineage of King Salomon.

I welcome hearing from you – how is this working for you in your life and what have you experienced as a result of using some, or all of these steps.
