Dear God/Goddess

What's happening now.

2008-09-25T13:45:00.000-07:00

Hi Everyone,

Well, I thought I was going to be adding to my blog back in May of 07, but things changed and it didn't happen. I have been focusing on my hypnosis practice, andI have been working as a hypnotherapist now for over a year. I am really enjoying helping so many people get over their addictions, removing blocks and reprogramming new habits and beliefs. So many great success. I will be using this blog to let people know more about it. And tell about things you can do for yourself , and how I can help.

am email asking about WHO I TRULY AM

2007-05-22T23:04:00.000-07:00

I am back, and will be putting in new blog entries, at least once a week. Lots of exciting things have been happening lately for me, and I thought I would start the an email I recently received from "D" stating:

"Hi Nancy! It has become very clear to me that I need to move on. I am trusting my inner guidance, and know only that I need to "get on the road" and further guidance will follow. I believe I am telling you this to create an opportunity for that guidance. I honestly am not sure what I am looking for..........perhaps you do. (How's that for pressure??) I am single with no children, love to travel, want to experience WHO I TRULY AM on a consistent basis, and teach others to do the same? Any ideas? Have a message for me?" "D"

Dear D , I would encourage you to be in touch with your inner guidance, it would much wiser than anything I could tell you. Wanting to be “who you truly are on a consistent basis is fabulous and a great goal, just don’t beat yourself up if you don’t feel you are doing it. I really don’t know anyone who is doing that all the time, but there are a few that do it a lot. It really is a goal of mine too. It doesn’t matter so much where you are physically, but more where you are spiritually. You can be in the worst area, and be “who you truly are”, and you could also be in the most wonderful area, and feeling the opposite. However, being around others who also want to be “who they truly are” does help.

Core Beleifs, Part Two

2007-01-27T13:05:00.000-08:00

Dear God/Goddess, Is it as easy as changing your mind about something to make things change?

Dear Sweet Child, Haven’t you ever successfully changed your mind about something, and watched it then be demonstrated in your life?

You mean like when I started to believe that I can do something, where before I didn’t think I could, and the more I believed I could do it, the more it happened.

Yes, this is one way to create a new operating belief. It’s like your saying, "fake it until you make it". For awhile, you may not think it is true, but the more time and energy and focus you give something, the more it will start to be demonstrated in your lives, and then you can start to know it is possible. The most challenging part is when it hasn’t been demonstrated yet, because the old belief may still be bringing in what it had created. If one is persistent with giving the new belief lots of focus and attention, and finding examples out in the world to reinforce it, the sooner the new belief will start being demonstrated in your life.

What about new ideas, like inventions, where there are no examples to believe in?

In regards to inventions, where it has never been demonstrated before, it maybe more of a challenge to hold fast to your new idea, but giving it the focus and attention it needs will help it along. Remember Thomas Edison who invented the light bulb. He had a belief that it could be done, and had around 1,000 attempts that did not work, until it finally did. That is persistance.

Repetition of the new idea, even when you don’t really believe it for sure, can give you the ability to override the old belief. Patience and trust is very important in regards to this process.

Isn’t what I do with hypnosis, can help get those new ideas into the subconscious and over ride those old core beliefs?

Yes, this is an easy way to reach those core beliefs, both in discovering them, and adding new beliefs to operate with. That is why you are so interested in this topic and are asking questions about it. Because you want to learn all you can about this subject

Yes, I am very interested in this subject, both to help myself and to help others. Thanks.

Core Beliefs

2007-01-24T09:43:00.000-08:00

Dear God/Goddess, How can I find out what my core beliefs are, and go about changing them?

Dear Sweet Child, What you have created by your thoughts are often reinforced by, or originally thought by others, but you have made them your own. Your core beliefs are beliefs that you base your major decisions on, and they drive your thoughts and actions. The best way to know what your core beliefs are, is to look at what you are creating in your life. For your core beliefs are what is running your opperating system. Like software put into a computer. They will be the main operating system, until a new system is put into the computer, and is told to run the new system as the default system. Your core beliefs are like this. In a computer, you can un-install some software, however, what you have put into your subconscious is always remembered. Because a thought is a thing, and these are forever. For all thoughts that have ever been thought, are added to the Universe. That is why the Universe is forever expanding. So a core belief can not be deleted, but it can be ignored, and over ridden. A new thought, a new belief can become the new operating system that is used.

So how do I do that?

First of all, it is helpful to know what they are, but not necessary. You can just chose a new operating system, a new belief and start giving it a lot to time and energy. If it is opposing your past core belief, it might take some convincing to allow you to accept this new idea. For it to become a belief, it has to believable to you. If your core belief is that money is scarce and hard to obtain, that will be demonstrated to you in your life, because what you think and believe, will occur for you. So, this is the challenge, to start thinking a new thought that money is abundant and easy to come to you. Even when inside, you think that is crazy, especially when that isn’t being demonstrated around you.

This is where the work comes in to change a belief. Remember, you can not remove that old belief, but you can override it, create a new belief that becomes the one the operating system uses first. There are many ways to do this, one way is to read about, or ask others that seem to be very successful financially, and see what they believe. See how their beliefs of prosperity have created that in their lives. Once you understand that what you believe in, creates your reality, and you see it demonstrated in your life and in others, you may want to change your mind about something you don’t want in your life anymore. (more coming on this)

Core Beliefs

2007-01-19T22:13:00.000-08:00

Dear God/Goddess, can you explain more about my beliefs, and how they affect my vibration?

Dear Sweet Child, In knowing the vibration principal and how you view it, will create exactly what that principal is all about. Can you step back and see that the principle works in all areas of your life?. Once you have seen it working in some areas of your life, then see if you can take it on faith that it works in all areas of your life. This is a time for taking it on faith. What would be important to hear, more than anything else, is that your core belief will always be created, which then reinforces your core beliefs. Life proceeds out of your belief about i., and what you believe and focus on, will then manifest, which then just makes that core belief more believable. And round and round it goes. And then you say, that’s "the truth". But remember they are “your truths”. All this is great, if your core beliefs are positive and are beneficial to you.

What if they are not?

If your core beliefs are not beneficial to you, you will know because they will be creating experiences in your life that are not what you want. So it would help to get to know what they are, by seeing what is happening in your life, and if you don't like it, work towards changing your beliefs. Often these beliefs may have come from others, especially what you often heard growing up. And of course what your parents believed, would manifest for them, and you got to hear and see that they were right about it. It takes a lot to go against what you have heard and seen out in the world to change your mind about that.

Yes, I remember the first time that I heard about the Law of Attraction. I figured that if it was true, then I would rather believe in positive things than negative things. I started observing what would happen after focusing on something for a while, and no matter if it was positive or negative, it started showing up. And I started to become more aware of my core beliefs. (More on this next blog.)

Choices

2007-01-14T20:00:00.000-08:00

Sorry everyone, I guess my New Years resolution was broken already, in regards to keeping this bolg up, I have received some new material though, and I have been preparing to do an evening presentation on Bali with the other women I traveled with. We will be doing it this Tuesday night here in Ashland Oregon I think it will be a lot of fun. However, I have been noticing so much going on in the news lately so that it caused me to ask this question:

Dear God/Goddess, Why is there so much contrast in the world? I get so frustrated over all the yucky stuff out there.

Dear Sweet child, Appreciation only comes from knowing the alternatives, the not so great stuff in life that you tend to call them. So here you are in a world where you have Free Will to choose all the spectrum of this third dimension world of contrasts. We know you want to have a life where your choices are pleasant and favorable, and so you ask how can you have all that, and not so much of what you think are the poor choices? First of all don’t see them as poor choices, they are all Free Will choices that allowed you many wonderful opportunities to grow and experience life.

When you grasp the awareness that when you are thinking good thoughts, you will understand those thoughts can directly affect your experiences that come to you, attracted to you by your good vibration. This has a compounding affect of increasing what you would call great choices, because the more you understand this concept the more you feel in control of your life, the more you really can consciously control what comes to you.

You have always created what has come to you, but usually it is done without realizing you did it. When you learn what kind of thoughts create certain outcomes, you can create intentionally. You can have fearful thoughts and beat yourself up for having them, but your vibration will not draw to you what you want. Turn those thoughts around and get excited and believe you can control those thought, and know that you can. And then you will start like the choices that come to you.

The Universal Catalog Part Two

2007-01-08T19:24:00.000-08:00

wow, I like this analogy, it helps me get to the trust level that I have, when I order things from a regular catalog.

Yes, and it is good to remember that there will always be something new that you have ordered with the Universe. You didn’t come to this dimension to sit in a room, and have everything already in it. You came to this dimension for the fun of getting new Universes catalogs in the mail so to speak, and having the fun of choosing and ordering new things and new experiences. You are also able to create things that have never before been created by anyone. It’s like getting a magic catalog in the mail that has some blank pages where you can draw something on the page that has never been imagined before. The Universal catalog is completely unlimited. Once you understand the currency that it takes in having that creation manifest, you can be unlimited in your ability to create. Just remember to fill up your bank account with the Universes currency of good feelings. You have to be happy NOW, not when you get your new creation.

You came to the realm of Reality to experience the process of creation. Being able to choose and appreciateall the choices in this Universe, and the chance to create new things and experience. We love being able to send you what you have ordered, but we espcially love that you are feeling happy, joyful and appreciative in the now. Which allows the item or experience to happen.

That is why you came here, to have the opportunity to create. You may want to remember this. In order to have the freedom to chose or experience anything, there has to be all choices, including what you really don’t want. In order to really feel love and appreciation, you wanted to see the opposite. It doesn’t mean you have to have it all in your immediate surroundings. The joy is in the living, the chosing, the creating, the icing ion the cake, is in the stuff coming to you that you ordered.

The Universal Catalog, Part One

2007-01-06T18:36:00.000-08:00

Dear God/Goddess, How come some things that I want seem to never come about?

Dear Sweet Child, The word “wanting” is tricky because in the word is the statement you don’t have it, so we would like you to think of “wanting” like when you put an order in for a catalog item. After you contact a catalog company, place an order, pay for it and tell them where you want them to send it, do you then sit and worry and fret because it is not at your door the minute you place your order? Of course not, you trust the process that the item will be shipped to you. You are still “wanting” the product, but you know it is coming to you. You are even aware that calling up the company everyday won’t help it come faster to you, (which is the same as your action of worrying) Instead you are appreciative of the process where you can order something, and know it will come to you.

You can also think about, and get excited about what it will be like when the product arrives. This is what we are asking you to do with orders you have placed with the Us, the Universe. Trust in Us as much as you trust in ordering a product out of a catalog. The trick is getting out of worry and fear, and thoughts that don’t make you feel good. Good feelings can be compared, in a way, to your money. If you didn’t send enough money to buy the product in the catalog, they will not send it. They may hold it for you, like layaway, but they need you to come up with the full amount of money before they will send it to you. This maybe kind of a loose analogy, but if you can think that good feeling thoughts are like putting more and more deposits down until the feelings that you are averaging out, are matching up to the vibration of what you have ordered, then at some point your item you have ordered with the Universe will arrive.

Love, joy, appreciation, happiness, enthusiasm, playfulness, excitement and other good feelings can be compared to your currency in drawing to you the things that you have ordered from the Universal catalog.

There is one very important piece in this scenario to be aware of, and that is there will always be things out there that haven’t yet come to you from the Universe. That is a part of being alive. It is like always having something new ordered, and waiting for it to arrive. This can be viewed with unhappiness that it isn’t here yet, or excitement about it coming, your choice. And remember if there is unhappiness, there is less currency in your Universal bank account to send the items to you. The big trick here is to be happy now before the item comes to you. Then you can add to your happiness, when it does arrive.

Using the mind

2007-01-05T01:46:00.001-08:00

Dear God/Goddess, thank you for continuing to be there for me How can I best use my mind, it seems it is more of a problem than a help?

Dear Sweet Child,Thank your mind for working hard. Ask the mind to be used for going over the things that you want to take care of, like scheduling, preparing for the day, and many of the details it takes care of in a day. Appreciate the minds ability to assist you with these things. Now ask the mind to delegate to your Inner Source, the Universe, the things that the mind worries about. Allow it to know that it has the most amazing miraculous team to create what you would want, and the key to having this Universe to assist you, is first by asking them, then thankig them, and finally letting go of worrying about getting it.

That’s easier said than done, often I forget to ask, but when I do, it still seems harder to just let go and trust.

Hasn’t there been a situation where an actual person has taken over a difficult situation for you, and made something work right? Trusting them is like trusting, and allowing and being confident that the amazingly capable Universe will do it also.. It gets done in the easiest and most efficient way. There are times when it is good to allow your mind to take care of things. We are counting on your mind to assist you, for we will signal you to take care of some of the details when you feel our prompting. But if you feel your mind worrying and feeling anxious and uncomfortable, then ask yourself, “is there something right now that can be done in regards to the situation you are thinking about?” If it is yes, then see if it can get done. And see if you can be please that there is something you can give your mind and body to do. Another tip is to see if you can do it with enthusiasm and joy, even if it is difficult and uncomfortable, for doing it with enthusiasm can give the action some juice to make it work well, and give it a vibration that infuses it with our assistance.

Also, ask yourself at different times during the day, “is this the best use of my time? And am I in the state of mind and feeling that I want to be in?” Don’t get anxious about it, for that defeats the purpose, just take a moment and tune into your feelings, especially when you feel a drop in vibration.

Then ask yourself, “is there some better thoughts I could be having, and is there something that would make me feel better if I did it now? And if there isn’t anything at this moment that can be done, then that is when it is very important to ask for help from the Universe. After that, thank your Universe and all your angels, and all who are assisting you to take care of the things you are worring about, The feeling of relief from letting it be in the hands of the Universe, and all that includes, is the first step, and then the feeling of appreciation is the second, then the third, is letting go of, and feeling what it will be like when it will all taken care of or when you receive what you are wanting

Happy New Yea's

2007-01-01T14:16:00.000-08:00

I feel this year of 07 will be a lucky 7 year, and I am looking forward to this special year. Lots of new things are happening, that I will share and let you be in on it as they occur. It is really great to wake up, and be excited about some new projects that I am working on.

Last night I spent my New Year's Eve celebration at a very special labyrinth. One of the churches here in Ashland, Oregon takes out all their pews and puts down a huge canvas that has a print of a labyrinth on it. For 4 days it is open for people to walk the labyrinth. About every other hour there is live music to enjoy. The music has been wonderful and diverse. i have come often to walk and listen. And I find it is a very special place to spend my New Years eve.

I walk towards the center releasing anything I want to let go of, and then as I walk out of the center I affirm something I want to add to my life.

New Years is famous for making resolutions, and I am no different. I would love to hear what some of your resolutions are. You can email me what you want to affirm for this lucky year of 07. (nancy@nancywalsch.com) My Resolution this year is to be sure to keep up this blog, I really do enjoy doing it. The other one is to start doing workshops. I will be doing one this March in Ashland. I will let you know more as things firm up. These are resolutions I will want to keep, and I am really getting excited about it!! I will get back to sharing the dialogs after the Holidays are over.

Blessings to everyone, Nancy

A Lot to be Thankful for

2006-12-31T14:12:00.000-08:00

A New Year is about to start, and I am so thankful for so many things in my life. I am very appreciative that I got to enjoy visiting my grown sons and their families. I especially enjoyed visiting my three grand children. Taylor is almost 6 and his little sister is 3 ½.

And they got a new cousin born November 8th, and we all got to spend Christmas together. My newest grandchild is a wonderful healthy little boy who loves to be held, and I sure enjoyed holding him. Nothing is more wonderful than having a baby fall asleep in your arms. (Especially if he is your grandchild!) I loved being a mother, but being a grandmother is so much more delightful for many different and rather obvious reasons.

When I was a new mother, I found those times very magical, but lack of sleep and responsibility of a new little one tended to make it more stressful for me. These times of being a grandma, really make my heart sing. I only wish I lived closer, but I guess that makes me more appreciative of the times I do get to see them.

Wishing you a very wonderful New Year Eve's!!!

Merry Christmas

2006-12-24T11:16:00.000-08:00

Merry Christmas to everyone,
I am visiting my family in Southern California, and enjoying the warm weather and beautiful blue sky. There is a lot to be thankful for, especially since I have a brand new grandson I am visiting for the first time!! . I will get back to writing soon.

Blessing to everyone.

Worrying part two

2006-12-21T01:47:00.000-08:00

For those of you patiently waiting for part two, sorry it took a few days. I have been getting ready to travel to Southern California to visit my son's and their families. I thought it was no consequence that I was writing about worrying while I was stressing out about the trip, so I read this part earlier and took it's advice. Not so surprisingly, things smoothed out, and the worrying and stress lessened. And now I am on my way down south, so I will be a little more hit and miss with my entries, during the Holidays, but keep checking in. Hope your Holidays will be worry and stress free, or at least less!!!

Dear God/Goddess, Is there anything else I can do to help with this mind that worries?

Dear Sweet Child, thank your mind for working hard, Ask your mind to help you with things that need to be done, like scheduling and preparing for the day. These things are very helpful. Appreciate the minds ability to assist you with these things, now ask the mind to delegate to your inner Source, The Universe, the things that the mind worries about. Know that it has the most amazing miraculous team to create what you would want and the key to having this Universes assistance is for you to just ask them, then thank them and just let it go. And let go of worry about even getting it.

Easy for you to say!!!

Has there been a situation where an actual person has taken over a difficult problem for you and made it work right. Even something as simple as getting your dimmer switch put in your house. Did it do any good to worry about how it was going to get done? If you ask someone who knows what they are doing, you have confidence that it will be done right, and you don’t have to know how they are going to do it. This is what we are suggesting you do when you ask the Universal’s help. It gets done in the easiest and the most efficient way. Often when you look back you marvel at all that got lined up to make something work. Much more amazing than anything you could have figured out on your own.

There will be times that the Universe will use you mind to take care of things that they working on. You may feel our prompting you, so if you get a good feeling to do something, and it feels right, see if you can really do it. And be glad that there is something you can give your mind and body to do. If you can do it with enthusiasm and joy, it will give the action "juice" to work well, and infuses it with a high vibration, along with our assistance, when you do any action with joy and enthusiasm

Worrying, part one

2006-12-16T22:41:00.000-08:00

Dear God/Goddess, I know it is good to appreciate things in my life, but sometimes I have a little twinge of fear mixed in, because when I appreciate something or someone in my life, I often worry that these things might only be temporary. I sometimes fear the possible loss of the thing I am appreciating).

Dear Sweet Child, Good awareness of yourself, since that has been a big part for you, and it will help you out a lot, to be able to handle the worrying about when the other shoe is going to fall. That creates for you more problems, than practically any other low vibration thought you tend to have.

Yes, you got me pegged! My protective self, the part of me that feels it needs to worry, wants me to do the things that will protect me from the things that I am afraid will happen. This part of me doesn’t like those positive higher vibration thoughts. It fears that if it allows positive thinking and these messages in, then I will be putting my head in the sand, and then I will not be prepared to deal with the negative things that might occur. What can I say to this voice to make it stop?

What would help is to keep telling your worrying voice, that what you think about, is what you get more of. The other shoe won’t drop unless, you keep worrying about it happening. Then the saying “what you feared the most came to past” actually does happens. Then you can either let that voice say, "I knew there was something to worry about", or finally be aware that you get what you focus on. Hopefully, you can take this information and turn you life around, rather than start worrying about your worrying.

there will always be Law of Attraction, keep telling the protective worrying part of you, that they need to let go. Get on board with creating what you do want, not what you don’t want! Keep saying to the worrying voice, “thank you for sharing, but this is not helping, since I am perfectly capable of handling anything that shows up in my life. I do not need to worry about not being prepared for something bad happening." This will help calm the voice.

My Bali trip last year

2006-12-13T22:50:00.000-08:00

This picture was taken December of 05, when I was in Bali. We visited the children that we and some others from the US were sponsoring through the YKIP organization. The four of us had brought 25 disposable camera's with us on the plane, and through interpreters we were able to teach them how to use their cameras. We asked them to take pictures of their family and home, so we could send the pictures back to their sponsors. In this picture they were all holding their camera up, pretending to take a picture. they had a lot of fun with their cameras, and their pictures they took, were wonderful. Even some of the smaller kids did a great job with their assignment.

We meet one week later after all the film had been picked up and developed, and they received two sets of the pictures that they had taken. One set they got to keep, and the other set was to be put into a booklet for their sponsor. We had so much fun with them, and it sounds like Heidi had a wonderful time this year too. (See the tuesday's post)

School is free in Bali, but it is still expensive for a family to send a child to school, because they wear uniforms and need school supplies. All these children have a family, but often their family, due to different reasons find it difficult to handle all the expenses. When a child is sponsored the family can then easily send their child to school. They were not in school the day we meet for the picture, so they did not have to be in uniform.

During much of the traveling that I have done, I found that there were some very special places and Bali was one of them. I love practically anywhere that is tropical, so that was already a plus for me. But the people, their customs, and their way of life is what makes Bali so special and unique. The trip last December was amazing, because of the time I spent with the children and I also got to meet some very beautiful families. We were also included in some of their sacred ceremonies and temples. We felt very privileged and honored to be let into their homes and temples. They are a very kind and loving people who have huge hearts. I saw how they live their spirituality on an every day basis. It was truly inspirational for me, and they touched my heart. I wish more people on this planet lived life as they do, I think this planet would be a much kinder place to live in. Of course, they have their challenges, just as we do, but practically everywhere I went, I saw happy people with huge smiles and a playful attitude.

It was a trip I will not forget, and I hope I will get to go back soon.

Bali Children

2006-12-12T11:23:00.000-08:00

This time last year I was in Bali, with three wonderful women. One being Heidi Hornberger, an exceptional artist who travels to Bali every year to help with the sponsored children, and to continue her art work amongst the other wonderful local artists. This year she went back to Bali and wrote to us about the event she did with the children that I, and others sponsor. Below is an email from Heidi to the sponsors. (in green print) Hope you will enjoy, I will write more about my experience of last year with the children. The foundation that sponsors the children is called YKIP, also known as Humanitarian Foundation for Mother Earth.
Dear Friends and Sponsors, I finally have some time to get an email off to you about our wonderful adventure to the Bali Bird Park with 30 YKIP children last week. This year 3 more friends accompanied me to Bali to help out with the field trip and to enjoy the island and its wonderful, warm-hearted people. For me, the field trip and art project (that followed a week later) was a year in the making. In the end, it was worth every minute of it. My first great joy was seeing the faces of the 24 children from last year, all smiling and welcoming me, as if I had come home again. Their shyness lessens with each year as our relationships grow. So many of them I now remember on a first name basis and can send them warm greetings from their sponsors in America. The 6 new children are still very shy with us, wondering who we are…these huge white-skinned people who don’t speak their language and are behind their cameras so much of the time. However, I did notice that many of the children from last year’s photo project related to the cameras differently and now seemed to understand our enthusiasm for clicking away endlessly. The Bird Park was much larger and more interesting than I expected. The Balinese children do not emote much, as we Westerners often do so freely, but I know from watching their faces closely that they will remember this experience for the rest of their lives. SUCCESS! This is what I wanted for each and every one of them…a memorable experience.Later in the day we took them by bus to a park and art museum in Ubud and had a picnic lunch. Even after all the stimulation of the morning, the children walked thru 3 buildings filled with Balinese art and carefully looked at all the paintings. I was amazed at their interest and ability to focus this long. In the end, it was a fabulous day for all of us (children, sponsors, and YKIP staff). It means so much to me to be able to make a difference in the lives of these young children. They embrace our gifts of sponsorship, letters, photos and small gifts from America and run with the opportunities we are offering them. Often the work I do for these children has seemed exhausting and so time consuming through out the year. But one day with them is all I need to be replenished and filled to overflowing again. I knew, for the first time last week, that some of these bright young students will surely go to university with our help and support. And they, in turn, will give back what we have given them to their island, communities and families.Last Saturday we gathered the children together again and did our annual art project of gifts from each child to their sponsor. I will be delivering the fruits of their creativity to you when I get back to the States in early January. So this years project is complete and I will begin planning next years field trip with Rucina ( the YKIP director) while I am here. She and her staff are incredible!! They organized, planned and executed so many details that made the field trip a success…buses, food and water for everyone, film development, reduced fees for the parks, and on and on. They work with over 500 children in the Kembali school program (which is only a small part of their foundation), yet they always take the time to help us with our field trips and art projects each year. I cannot tell you how impressed I am with the quality of these people and their devotion to the YKIP program.. Thank you again for your support in this project.

You have total freedom

2006-12-09T22:00:00.000-08:00

Dear God/Goddess, If my thoughts create my reality, can I override my previously negative thoughts with positive thoughts? Will those negative thoughts still come to pass even if I have started to think positive thoughts?

Dear Sweet Child, Yes, you can override the negative thoughts with positive thoughts, however, any focus on what you had been thinking about, that was upsetting or worrisome, will just keep them around. And if some of those past negative vibrations start manifesting, then it is even harder to keep up the positive thoughts. But see if you can allow those worrisome thoughts to fade away. Give your attention to new thoughts and feeling of prosperity, love and joy in your life, and they will come into your life. Especially if you can send your focused thoughts in that positive direction, until it is a belief and then a knowing. Tap into the possibilities, the possibilities that excite you, the possibilities of joy, peace, pleasure, happiness, love and harmony. These states are every person’s God given right to have and chose for their lives. You also have the right and freedom to choose otherwise. Life is set up so you will get what you focus on. You have total freedom to choose any state of being. That freedom is what makes the experience of loving even more profound when you have all the choices available.

How much do others affect us?

2006-12-08T18:25:00.000-08:00

Dear God/Goddess, Is life going to follow what I direct it to be, or are we at the affect of others?

Only to the extent that you believe it can affect you? Especially, if you fear things negatively affecting you, then the world will agree with you. If you believe that your loving, joyful positive thoughts will bring only loving peaceful happenings into your life, that also is what the world will agree with, and demonstrate that in your life. You don’t have to know all the details in what and how that will occur. Just have a knowing that love, joy, prosperity, health and peace will occur, if that is what you are choosing in your thoughts and feelings.

This is not longer such a secret, but for most of you it is still not believed. But more and more of you will start demonstrating the Law of Attraction and make it more believable for the general public. A key to this is not to fake happiness, to try and manipulate the Law of Attraction to get what you want, so then you will be really happy. It works much better if you work towards being happy, no matter if you get what you want or not. Know that an inner state of happiness is what your Inner Being is all about. It is not about getting the stuff and the experiences, but in how you think and feel. However, the stuff and wonderful experiences are a demonstration of being in that inner state of happiness. There will be the beginning challenge from having to go on faith while the past thoughts of negativity maybe still playing out in your manifestation. This will be continued tomorrow.

What do you think?

Happiness Part Three

2006-12-05T23:15:00.000-08:00

Dear God/Goddess, You said that happiness was subjective, but are there some ways to tell we are happy?

Dear Sweet Child, This is a state where you know that all is well, where you have accepted life and appreciate everything around you. Contentment is one state of happiness, but contentment does not mean being complaisant. True happiness and contentment can be full of excitement and passion, enthusiasm and joy. Singing and dancing can flow from being happy Happiness is a state, with a definite high vibration, but if you are not really feeling that, then sometimes you might choose to fake it until you make it, as your saying goes, Often in the beginning when one chooses to be happy, even when they aren’t yet feeling it, the body will follow suit and then the true feelings of happiness will come. You may get fleeting feelings of warm loving thoughts, but as time goes on, if you continue to choose to BE happy, you will start feeling happy more and more of the time.

Appreciation, love, happiness, joy, peace, compassion are all states you Soul knows and resonates with. The more you tap into these feelings, even if you have to pretend at first, the more you will feel closer to your Soul and the more you will start to feel happy.

Happiness part two

2006-12-04T22:48:00.000-08:00

Dear God/Goddess, ICan go explain more about happiness, and how we can be happy?

Dear Sweet Child, Like we said in the last passage, being OK with not having what you are wanting, will allow you to be happy now. Often, people are very surprised that when they finally get what they have always wanted, that aren’t happy for very long. They might have gotten a momentary feeling of happiness, but then off they go trying to get what they want next. They could spend they whole life, going from one brief moment of happiness to the next, with long periods of not being happy in between. This is not what most people or we would call true happiness.

So if you find yourself, waiting to be happy ‘when”, then you will be missing a lot of opportunities to be happy right now. But there are more ways to be happy, and that is to get a perspective with how you are living your life. Many times what one person’s reasons for being unhappy, would be another person’s reason to be happy, depending on what part of the world you are living in. That is where making lists of what you appreciate in your life, and focusing on that, often will help immensely in making you much aware of how many wonderful things are in your life. And like we have said before, the more you chose to be happy, no matter what is happening to you, the more things will come your way that you will be able to appreciate and enjoy.

More tomorrow.

Happiness

2006-12-03T23:56:00.000-08:00

Dear God/Goddess, Would you tell me about happiness?, It seems to be the motive behind most actions, or at least the pursuit of happiness is. And why does it seem to elude us most of the time?

Dear Sweet Child, Happiness is a subjective term, to each one of you, it has a different meaning, but it does have a range in vibration that is high. Happiness does tend to be illusive for most of you. It requires knowing that there will always be something not yet manifested that you will want, and that happiness in the now, requires feeling happy anyway. If happiness requires the future event or thing to come to you, or to avoid what you don’t want, then you will never be happy.

Life will always be bringing you future opportunities, but if you allow those future things to determine your happiness, you are not going to be fully happy. Because you will always have something not yet manifested. That is why we say “get in touch with love- happiness, and appreciation now, to fully enjoy the now. For the NOW is all you really have. You have put yourself in this Realm of Relativity to have freedom of choice- Free Will, to have all the options of the spectrum in this illusion. But it can’t feel like an illusion, or you would not really have an ability to choose. In the Realm of the Absolute, where all is love, what is true, is there are truly no choices, so you revel in the Realm of Relativity to enjoy the contrast and choices. To be able to experience appreciation, to be able to truly appreciate, one has to experience or have the option to experience things that aren’t what you want, and then you can appreciate what you do want.

But what about happiness? I guess I get why we have choices, but why is it so hard to be happy in the now, when all those things aren’t going are way?

We understand it is difficult to be happy, when things aren’t going your way. But happiness can first come from just choosing to be happy. It may not be easy if life seems hard, if one is in a difficult situation. We understand that it could be difficult to choose to be happy if you were in prison, or something else not pleasant. What is difficult to understand is that those circumstances are from vibrations sent out for a while that have been less than happy. This is not a reason to beat yourself or others up for the state you are in, this is to help understand what is happening, and what you can do if you want to change things. It requires love, understanding and compassion with people who are not happy in their life.

However, when one chooses to be what they consider to be happy, no matter what is happening around them, then they will start bringing in more and more happy situations that support those feelings. Even if you are choosing to be happy, to get better things coming to you, if you raise your vibration to the level of true happiness, you will discover you won’t need the things you were wanting, and yet when they come, you will be able to add appreciation to the high vibrations of happiness.

Qigong and Gohn Dagow

2006-12-02T22:14:00.001-08:00

Occasionally I will put in a personal note, since I want to tell you about a wonderful experience I had going to an afternoon workshop in Ashland, Oregon today. I have lived here in Ashland for about 10 years, and there are so many wonderful things happening here.

I would love to share with you, about an amazing Chinese healing program called Qigong. I believe it is becoming more and more known around the world. We have one of the special Chinese Masters here in Ashland, that lived and trained in China. His name is Master Mingtong Gu, and is head of the Wisdom Healing Center. I spent 5 very powerful hours with him, and about 80 participants. I am feeling very fortunate to be able to gather with so many like minded spiritual people, and to create a synergistic Chi energy that was used for healing the individual, the group, and to send out into the world.

This Qigong definitely reminded me of my prior training with a Chinese form of martial arts, called Gohn Dagow. I trained under Master Futzu Treon for 7 years from 1990 to 1997. Today was very special for me. It was very powerful to be working in a group that focused and developed the Chi energy, and being with another Master.

Qigong is more focused on healing the body, and not using it for martial movements, but I found many similarities. Both modalities date back to ancient China. And both help you learn and use your Chi force.

I would love to share a little about Gohn Dagow. It originated in 2800 B.C., and is considered a classical, southern Chinese, soft, monk form of martial arts. Soft style is different from hard style movements, soft styles emphasize internal power, called Chi and exemplify flowing motions. Hard styles emphasize external, physical power, and tense sharp rigid movements. Tremendous speed can be developed in both styles, and both can teach the development of Chi. There were many beautiful ancient philosophies, closest to the Toa tradition, that were taught to us. This and more can be found in the book Gohn-Dagow Movements for Health and Self Defense found at their web site www.gohndagow.com

Also, from today’s event, Master Mingtong Gu’s web site is www.chicenter.com. I would love to have you check out both sites, and learn more about them. My training in Gohn Dagow was life changing for me, and prepared me for many of my challenges in my life,. I owe so much to Futzu Treon who passed on in 1998. And to Futzu Hickmond, who is now head of the American Gohn Dagow Association and lives and teaches in Bend, Oregon.

PS: If you have already tried to post a comment, and found you had to be a memeber to post, that should be changed now. You should be able to make a comment, even without sharing who you are.

You are never truly alone

2006-12-01T23:43:00.000-08:00

Dear God/Goddess, Can you tell me more about this communications and are more people communicating this way with you?

Dear Sweet Child, Yes, of course, it is great that so many are doing this now, actually this type of communicating has been going since humans have been alive. Mostly, in prayers, and only a few had been hearing us, especially as clear as it has been lately. We are pleased about this increase in the two way communications. For as it said in “Conversations with God” God communicates with you, using any way possible for you to hear the message. Even a movie, signpost, or what might be said from the next person you talk to might be a message from us.. We do like communicating this way, although it can be fun sometimes to find cleaver ways to reach you.

Like when I see double or triple digits on a digital clock. Especially, when I see 11:11. Is that you talking to me? I feel like it is a message that tells me that you are near.

Yes, we have fun with that, but your questions imply that there might be a time when we aren’t near. We are always as close as your breath, but never forcing our energy on you, because you will always have Free Will. But, regarding the repeating numbers, they are a symbol that you are vibrating closer to the higher vibrations that makes connection easier for you, which is closer to your true self. At times like these, and many others, when you are feeling loving and happy, you will feel conneted to us. We are always connected to you, but it is your Free Will that allows you to feel connected to us, or not. Just know we are as close as a thought, and you are never truly alone.

Are you Really God/Goddess? Part Two

2006-11-30T21:38:00.000-08:00

Dear God/Goddess, Regarding the names I use for you, why do I seem to ask for both God and Goddess, it feels best to me when I use both, but why is that? Are you one or the other or both?

Dear Sweet Child, We would like to explain that God or Goddess is not one or the other, but all encompassing energy, ever expanding. However, if you ask for Goddess energy, you can bring forth more of a limited energy, not limited in ability, but more focused. Like the difference between a sun ray that lights up a whole room, vs. a laser beam that shines a pinpoint light on the wall... When you ask for God or Goddess, you have brought the ray more focused, a more focused pinpoint usage. It not so much which name you use, or combination of names, all are powerful in their applied usage. However, when getting specific answers, the laser is more useful. Also, like we said earlier, when you use these names, you are asking for what you feel will be very high vibration answers. It does matter what you are expecting to hear, and also it helps what vibration you are in, when asking for answers. Often if you ask for God, you are expecting a male slant on the answer, and a female slant from Goddess. Again it is YOUR asking and expecting that brings the focused answers from us.

Is there a difference between God and Goddess, if I would ask for one rather than another?)

Well, if you were writing to your father rather than your mother, you would know that there is a difference in them, and your thoughts about who they are, are different. These thoughts have a different vibration, which is similar in regards to the two names you have given us. We are not one name or the other, but if you ask for one then you will be asking through the slant you would expect of that name. We really aren't both names either, but it helps you to use both names, which then broaden the laser beam, more light a powerful flashlight. It gives a more broader slant on things.

We still have all the power of a sun, our eternal energy, in the focused light you ask for, but we tone it down, so as not to give you a really big headache. At least that is the way you responded to our strong energy. Someone else might tolerate it better, but know you are doing so much better over time, in handling more and more energy. It may matter more to the people who read this, what name you believe we are, than to you. But remember, it is not a specific name we go by, but the feeling you get when you hear us that determines who you are hearing from.

If you are feeling good from hearing from us, and it rings true, then that is what matters. We understand it helps to give us a name, but just remember, it is for your sake, not ours that we have a name or names. We are with you always, no matter what you call us, you will feel us deep in your heart. And, you will know when you have touched our energy, when you feel amazing, loving, peaceful and passionate all at the same time. Like when you first fall in love. Remember that feeling, and you will know what it is like to connect fully with us.

Are you really God/Goddess?

2006-11-28T23:29:00.000-08:00

Dear God/Goddess, So if you are not what what we think, can you explain what we should think? Are you only “my higher self” instead of God/Goddess?

My Dear Sweet Child, Your higher self is a part of us, just as we are a part of Abraham. You have called us God/Goddess for a long time, and when you ask for those names you bring a connection to you that correspond to that vibration. That is good. We are all vibration, and depending on who is reaching out and connecting, will get messages from us that correspond to the vibrations they are sending out Life is full of vibrations, and we lower our vibration to the level you can hear us. That is why you often get a headache when you are reaching out to hear us. Since you have been feeling less negative emotions lately you have found that there is less fatigue and headache. It is not that we cause the headache, but that there is still a difference in the vibrations, even when we try and match your vibration as much as possible.

Are you really God/Goddess?

Those are labels you have given to the highest vibrations you can imagine. You are tapping into the collective that you would consider being part of that energy, but we are so much more than you can imagine, the part of us who you are talking to, is a part of that highest vibration that you can imagine, that doesn’t mean that that is the highest vibration there is.

Consider that everything is vibrating. everything that you can see, and can not see. And that each vibrates at a certain speed. But the speed doesn’t make things actually separate, but it gives everyone a ability to show up differently. Like different vegetables in a vegetable soup. Every vegetable vibrates differently but they all are part of the same soup.. We are the “soup” and you are part of the “soup” but in order for you to hear us, we allow ourselves to vibrate at a certain frequency to be heard. You can call us what ever you want, but the higher the vibration you expect, the higher you will get.

Still, remember we have to be heard through your filters. Whenever you read any messages from someone else’s or these, you need to run them through some criteria, such as your tummy test. If they feel familiar, feel right in your heart. You know that these messages are coming from the higher vibrations you are hoping for. If the messages contain love, compassion and joy, then you know they feel right. We are like your H2O, because it can be experienced very differently depeding on what vibrations it is. Ice is very different than mist, even though they are both H2O molecules.

We know we truly haven't anwswerd your question on who we are, because we can't be contained or labled, but we understand your need to know. The lables that you give us is for your assistance in understanding our energy, out presence in your lives. It gives you something to grasp and focus on We are more vast and expanasive than you can imagine, and can become as pinpoint energy as a laser beam. We appreciate your attempt at understanding this. For now, be with it, and continue to run these messages by your tummy. and see how they feel.

Am I hearing you correctly?

2006-11-27T23:37:00.000-08:00

Dear God/Goddess, The three teachings that have helped me the most, have been these conversations, the CwG books, and the teachings of Abraham who is channeled by Esther Hicks. Anyone who is not familiar with Abraham's teaching can learn more from their web site Abraham-Hicks.com. Often you are saying the same thing as what I hear the other two say. Am I hearing you clearly, or is it strongly influenced by their teachings? The messages seem to be saying the same thing, only a little differently. Can I trust what I am hearing from you?

My Dear Sweet Child, Now that is a good question, it is actually both. The messages from us, and the the other sources you mentioned, are mainly the same, because we are part of the same energy. We are all part of the whole, and depending on who is asking the questions, and who is listening to us, will have a unique slant on things. Of course the knowledge that you have, will come through when hearing us. We actually use your knowledge to form concepts on the subjects that you ask about. We would have a difficult time telling you about calculus and teaching you about it, since it is completely foreign to you. If we want to teach calculus we find a person who will hear us that knows all about that, and has questions on it. Often people’s hunches and new ideas than come from dreams or out of the blue as you often say, are from us. They may not understand that it is coming from us. That is not important anyway, for we are not what you think anyway. (More on this tomorrow)

Recovering Pessimist Part 2

2006-11-26T23:36:00.000-08:00

Continued from November 25, 06

Thank you, I really appreciate this help. Can you help me regarding what can I do about things that invlove other people, such as their decisions and actions that effect me. I can’t control someone else, so how do I keep from worrying about what they will do? How does my thoughts affect someone else?

You are always co-creating in your life. This is what is hard to understand. Know that you can’t control others, but your vibrations you send out in the form of your thoughts and feelings, will affect others. And since like vibrations attract like vibrations, then you will know that if you are getting behavior from others that you do not like, you may want to go inside and look at what kind of thoughts and feelings are going out. This is not to beat yourself up. Because that is just more of the same thoughts that create more lower vibrations that go out. Then they will come back, giving you more things to worry and fret about. Can you see how this can compound the situation, and make it even harder to change you vibration?

Yes, so how can I turn my vibration around, stop being a pessimist. Stop that downward cycle?

There is good news, and that is the fact that it works the other way too, the better you feel, the happier you are, the better life works out for you. Like attracts like in this area too. If you can really grasp this Law of Attraction, then you can choose what type of dominant thoughts that you will be thinking. In the beginning of turning your thoughts to positive ones, you might still be getting in your life, stuff you don’t like that was sent out before from previous negative thoughts. That is when it will take some dedication to stay positive. Look for things that you are appreciative of, things that will make you feel better. Also, know that we are always here with you, and if you ask for help, we are there, and can help you feel more love in your heart. Tune into the love that resides deep within you, and know that is who you truly are, the one who wants to experience the joys of life. This is a big focus in your life, so there will be more on this subject, but for now this is enough.

A Recovering Pessimist

2006-11-25T21:18:00.000-08:00

Dear God/Goddess, So you know that I am a recovering pessimist. And when I was always thinking the worst, it sure gave me a lot to worry about. It seemed like I was always waiting for the other shoe to drop. I am so much better these days, but that feeling still shows up once in a while. The difference now is that I know all those thoughts will become a self-fulfilling prophecy. At first I didn’t believe that my thoughts created my reality, but I figured, if it is true, then why not think about things I would like to create, rather than worry about what I did not want to create. I have been asking a lot of questions about this, and reading everything I could find on this subject. I have been observing how the average of my thoughts and feelings actually do create similar vibrations that came back to me, sometimes I see it right away, sometime it takes a little longer. I saw the movie “The Secret” and it was amazing, but can you help me regarding why it is still so easy to fret and worry, even when I know all this, and what I can do about it?

My Dear Sweet Child, this has been something that has been part of you for a long time, and it will not be easy to overcome. It has been a long time habit, but habits can be changed. When you recognize that you are worrying, and you are not feeling good, then that is the time to stop, and step back, and ask yourself, can you do anything about the thing you are worrying about right now? If not, then stop and look around and see if there is something that you can feel appreciative and happy about right now. If there is something that can be done, ask yourself if is possible for you to do it now or plan to do it soon, rather than just worrying about it. There are many ways to help you overcome this worring. You have have already done a lot to decrease this in your life, be glad for that.

More on this subject tomorrow……

A Time to Give Thanks

2006-11-23T00:09:00.000-08:00

Dear God/Goddess, Here it is Thanksgiving in the US, and there is so much for me to be thankful for. So many times I forget to really take stock, and appreciate things in my life. Why is that? I used to not want to really focus on the good things in my life, because I felt I might jinx it. The more I liked having something or someone in my life, the more I worried about losing it or them. Now I understand that the state of appreciation, of being thankful will certainly not jinx anything, but instead bring more of the things I am appreciating, not that is why I feel appreciative. But why is it so hard to appreciate something, often not really appreciating something until we have lost it, or almost lost it. Why do I so often forget to appreciate many things in my life?

My Dear Sweet Child, We welcome you. At this time of year, one tends to take stock and focus more on who is in your life, wanting to be around friends and family. Thinking about what you want to get them for Christmas, if that is your tradition. Even if you don’t follow this Christian tradition, often the whole world will feel a difference around this time of year. There is a slight different energy that is created by so many people all over thinking about family and friends.

You asked why you often don’t appreciate things as much as you would like. Life is full of busy times, and often you can get very busy, but have you not noticed that the happier you are the more appreciative you are? You did chose to be in this life and in this body, to be able to appreciate things. And, in order to really appreciate things you have to have the opportunities to have all choices in life. Life can be appreciated for life itself. But having the contrasts in life, allows you to experience the state of appreciation fully. Like you said life is full of choices and often someone doesn’t appreciate something until they lose it or almost lose it.

It can’t be good to have to think or have that experience of losing something to really appreciate it, how can you help us to really get there without having to dwell on the losing part?

Well, on this day of Thanksgiving, what happens when you give thanks?

All I know is that I feel better, feel more loving. This day is all about giving thanks for everything in our lives, especially friends and family. But it can be very hard for some people, it can be very painful if someone can’t be with their loved ones, or is homeless and there isn’t much to be thankful for. Are these some of the forms of contrast you were talking about? Could you explain further?

Life is full of opportunities and choices. No matter what is happening, and what or who is or is not in your life, there can always be something to be thankful for. We do not say you have to be thankful, this is not a have to, only a wonderful way to raise your vibration and feel more love in your heart. Think back to some of your favorite memories, a time when you were really touched by something. Were you feeling the feeling of appreciation at the time, or a form of it? These feelings are very close to your true state, your Soul. These will be times you will remember well, the times you have given thanks. That is why we are suggesting to give thanks, and appreciate the moments and people in your life.

You will notice that the more you appreciate these things, the more things you will have to appreciate, and that just adds to the wonderful state of connecting with your Soul. You are this way in spirit, but you wanted to come to this body and life, to have all the contrast and choices to know what it is really like to appreciate something. A small example could be getting a hot shower after camping for days. You might take a shower most everyday, and not really appreciate it, but after going days out in the wilderness getting cold and dirty, doesn’t that hot shower feel exceptionally wonderful? Your True Self is always experiencing wonderful things, but your Soul likes to get a full experience of appreciation. So take this time to stop and allow your Soul to live life fully, and know how lucky you truly are to get to be there, and experience all you do.

I give Thanks to you, for this connection and creating a venue to share these words with others. And all that is in my life.

Self-preservation

2006-11-21T16:05:00.000-08:00

Dear God/Goddess, can you help me know how to deal with my body and mind, especially when it strongly wants what it wants and I know that is not even good for the body. You would think that since the body has a self-preservation mode in it, it would be the one to want to take care of it, like eating right and exercising.

Good Morning Sweet Child, it is good to connect. That question has some complicated parts to it. You really do have programmed in you to know what foods are good for you, and a desire to get up and move. And to get the sleep the body needs. However, it is also programmed to find ways of feeling pleasure. And it does not like feeling pain. This program of finding pleasure and avoiding pain, can at times over-ride the knowledge of what is in the long term good for the body. Also, if the body has been eating a lot of things that taste good, but are not good for the body, the body starts developing a taste for them instead of the better foods.

When you are eating only healthy foods, and avoiding the high sugar, salty and fried foods, your taste buds will change. And you will start craving fruits and nuts and stuff like that. It goes the other way too, if eating a lot of sugar, you will start craving more of it. This is part of the pleasure/pain principal. It usually is up to another part of you to decide what it truly pleasurable and painful. What you really want to experience. None f it is really good or bad, but what works. Remember, the Free Will, so you are able to choose from all the options out there. Who is deciding that the temporary pain from exercising, will eventually give you pleasure later on? That could be either your mind and or your Soul. We could spend hours and hours on the subject of your mind, so for now know that your mind is a tool for you to work with, and it is not the real you. When you are wanting to change some habits that you know are not having a good effect on your health, it might be helpful to ask yourself in the moment you are about to do something that you know is not good for your body, can I get some pleasure from something else, and can I get some better benefit in the long run, if I do or not do this now.

Body/Mind/Soul Connection

Dear God/Goddess, well, I see that my body and mind seems to have a strong hold over the Soul. Why is it that my body wants to sleep, eat sweets and not exercise, and mind likes to worry all the time, and watch stupid TV shows!!!

If I exercise, do chores, eat right, avoid sweets and alcohol and get up and write in the early mornings, I know it is so good for me, but it sure is pushing against my bodies desires. And thinking positive thoughts seems to be against what my minds wants to think about? Does the Soul like a challenge, is that why we jump into these bodies that often make it hard to get past these bodies and minds desires, and why are these desires so strong!!! They especially get stronger when I give in and give them what they want. And usually those are not what is good for me!

Dear Sweet Child, so many good questions, we welcome you pushing through wanting to go back to sleep, even right now it is calling you! This is a good example of overriding what the body wants. Your body would rather be sleeping, and often it gets what it wants. But before we go much further, we would like to make clear that these three parts are not as clearly separate as it seems to be discussed here. The body/mind spilt isn’t exactly a direct split. The Soul is also not a complete separate entity while in your body. Some times you can feel the difference, but they are all married, blended in a way that tends to blur the edges of the separate entities of the three we have been discussing. It is like a melding together that was created at birth or around there, when the Soul took on that body and mind. It also took on the history of the ancestors of that body, and it all became a blended unit. That is why rarely no one part is in complete control, except, like in the case when the body is filed with so much numbing substances to over-ride the other parts of you,.

The Soul is here for expression and growth, it takes on the body and mind to allow it to be able to do that. But it is not in the Soul’s nature to over-ride these other parts of you. It is a subtle influence, especially if the Soul itself hasn’t developed enough to know how to direct the other parts into a more spiritual life.

The spiritual life has to be truly chosen, with all the other options to choose from. Then the Soul gets the true joy of choosing that life. But in order to have a true choice, other options have to be available.

How can we recognize the Soul and give it full expression and growth?

Good question , to recognize it, it is kind of like recognizing your conscience, but it is not a parent in a scolding way, that is your mind. No, your Soul gives you love and compassion, joy and freedom. When you are feeling these things, you are in touch with your Soul. Compassion for you and others can give you insight to the plight of getting along and the blending of all your parts.

When you die, the body falls away first, you step out of it like stepping out of a space suite the astronauts wear. That part goes quickly, and not mourned for, because like the astronauts, they feel released from that tight constraint of the space suit, and they know that suit is not them. The mind that came with the body, can have lingering affects after death, especially if there was a clear identity with the mind that was established during that life time. But you will eventually drop that off and re-connect with who you truly are, the watcher of it all. Reach into yourself now, and feel yourself, who is there? When you hold your newborn child, or see a beautiful sunset, or that moment of falling in love, when your life is full of wonder and joy in the moment, that is when you are in touch with who you really are.

Resistance to getting up early

Dear God/Goddess,

Good morning, these messages have come through best in the early mornings, which is a problem for me, because that is not my best time. Any one who knows me, will know that I am not a morning person!! So this leads me to my first question.

Why is my body so resistant in getting up early in the morning? Why, even when I know that meditating, eating right, and yoga is so good for me, do I often have such resistance to them?

Dear Sweet Child, it is good to connect on a more direct basis. We are always here; all you have to do is stop and listen. But we will not interfere, as you know “Free will” is one of the laws of the Universe, which is a gift to you. We capitalize Free Will because it is a very important law, and we want to make sure you see the importance of it. Free Will is the only thing that allows you total freedom to all things. And when you, as a Soul, is fused with a body and the mind/personality, your Free Will is with all three levels of the Soul, body and mind/personality. From now on, when we say mind, know that we are referring to the combined mind/personality part of you.

Going back to your question of why you aren’t getting up in the mornings to write, or doing other things you know would be good for you, know that your body first, and then your mind is using their Free Will and over ridding your Souls desire, and our gentle prodding’s to write. We can let you know we are alvalable, but because of your Free Will we will never force our presence on you. Fatigue is not your natural state, it is where one or more of your lower energy feelings is draining your body from your natural higher vibration vitality.

But why does this writing leave me fatigued at times?

Regular fatigue comes from the lower vibration feelings, such as sadness, worry, or frustration. The fatigue you are experiencing when connecting to us, is because you are not used to being in our high vibration. If you are in a wonderful feeling state when you connect with us, you will not feel this fatigue. And some of the fatigue is the fear of what you might hear, or the fear of loss of control by the mind and body.

The body doesn’t always lead with the things that might be good for it. It has to be trained, just as training for a marathon requires vigorous, consistent and frequent trainings. If left on its own, the bodies’ Free Will would not go through this vigorous effort. So now we are getting to the levels of Free Will of the body, the mind, and the Soul. Actually it isn’t quite that simple of three divisions, but for the sake of your language and understanding of these terms, it is OK at this time to label them this way.

Mind and body go with the temporary life you are in, the Soul is what lives on, but your Soul is a combination of this incarnation and all the other incarnations you have had where you have bee infused with other bodies and minds.

The Soul is what lives on after the body dies, but the body and mind can influence the Soul depending on who you feel is the real you. Who you associate yourself with during this life, will determine how much the body and mind will affect your Soul.

So many of you are lessening the body and minds affect on the Soul, which is gives the Soul great joy. The Soul is who you truly are, but when it takes on a body and mind it becomes integrated with all three and with each of the Free Wills available for the body and mind, and the Soul yearns for the ability to lead in the choices you have in your life.

Then why would the Soul want to allow the body and mind to have a Free Will if it yearns to lead?

It is like entering a contest, do you get more joy and excitement from winning if there was an equal opportunity to not win, rather than an automatic win? Isn’t it more fun and thrilling to win when it wasn’t a given? That is why your Soul likes to give it the opportunity for the Soul to lead is not a given. And to make it extra challenging you put yourself on this planet full of opposites, so there are so many variables to choose from. So when the body, mind and soul have a Free Will of their own, which one will be the strongest in your life?
