Healing From Within

“Healing from within” encompasses the idea of harnessing one’s internal resources and innate abilities to promote physical, emotional, and mental well-being. It involves understanding and addressing the root causes of physical or emotional imbalances to facilitate the healing process.

Here are some key aspects of healing from within:

Self-awareness and Mindfulness: Understanding oneself, one’s emotions, thoughts, and behaviors is fundamental to healing from within. Practicing mindfulness allows individuals to stay present and aware of their experiences, which can lead to better self-regulation and emotional well-being.
Emotional Healing: Acknowledging and processing emotions is crucial for healing. It involves allowing oneself to feel and express emotions in a healthy and constructive way, rather than suppressing or denying them. Techniques such as journaling, therapy, and meditation can aid in emotional healing.
Physical Health and Wellness: Maintaining a healthy lifestyle through proper nutrition, regular exercise, adequate rest, and managing stress plays a significant role in healing from within. Taking care of the body provides a foundation for overall well-being.
Holistic Approaches: Integrating holistic approaches like acupuncture, yoga, meditation, massage therapy, and traditional medicine can aid in healing by addressing the mind, body, and spirit as interconnected entities.
Self-Care and Self-Compassion: Practicing self-care involves taking time for oneself, engaging in activities that bring joy and relaxation, setting boundaries, and nurturing one’s own needs. Self-compassion entails treating oneself with kindness and understanding during challenging times.
Spiritual Connection: For some, connecting with spirituality or a higher purpose can be a source of healing and strength. This may involve practices such as prayer, meditation, or engaging in a community with shared beliefs.
Learning and Growth: Embracing life’s challenges as opportunities for growth and learning is a vital aspect of healing from within. Reflecting on experiences, gaining insights, and evolving as a person contribute to a resilient and healed mindset.
Seeking Support: Seeking guidance and support from trusted individuals, mentors, or professionals when facing challenges is an essential part of healing from within. Opening up and sharing experiences can provide a fresh perspective and help in the healing process.
Gratitude and Positivity: Cultivating an attitude of gratitude and focusing on positive aspects of life can shift one’s perspective and promote healing. Recognizing and appreciating the good in life can enhance overall well-being.
Healing Practices and Therapies: Engaging in specific healing practices such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, energy healing, psychotherapy, or other therapeutic modalities tailored to an individual’s needs can facilitate healing from within.

Remember, healing is a unique and personal journey, and what works for one person may not work for another. It’s essential to explore various approaches and find what resonates best for you in your journey of healing from within.

The Loss of a Beloved Pet

A pet may come into one’s life unexpectedly or planned. The compassion and love that forms the bond is one of the strongest connections that both a human and a pet can have. There’s a silent communication, an energy, that thrives and goes deep into the soul. Whether the beloved pet is adopted, rescued or a baby of and existing pet, the connection is formed.

Our pets become part of our life. They become a friend, a shoulder to cry on, someone to talk to and know our deepest secrets. They are family, our children. They depend on us to keep them fed and sheltered, and will defend us until they’re dying breath. That invisible thread of connection is never broken. When they pass on, they just go to another dimension. Sometimes they come back to us in another form or being. You see, the soul never dies. We are all one with the Universe. We are energetic beings in a 3D body.

Our pets teach us compassion, love, patients, and understanding. If we listen and observe them, we are often shown where we may be lacking in our own behavior. They are our teachers from Spirit. They help and guide us through life. When they have finished their mission, they will transition back to Creator. We as humans don’t always understand the why’s. As sensitive and emotional beings, we mourn the loss of a beloved friend and companion. As we look back on their life with us, we can see and remember the lessons that they taught us.

Losing a dearly beloved pet is heartbreaking. Knowing that they too have a purpose on this 3D earth plane. They offer us unconditional love and ask for the same in return. This is the lesson from the Creator – LOVE. Pure unconditional LOVE.

And so it is 💜👼🏻

Filling the Void

There are times when one feels like there is a void, an emptiness that is within them or around them. It can feel lonely, isolated or fearful. On the other hand, this space can also be a place of healing. When life deals someone a bunch of lemons, they can throw them in the trash or they can make lemonade. Looking at a situation in ones life, it always has two sides. There is the path of anger, frustration and loneliness, or, the path of self reflection, look towards the future and not dwelling on the past, or stepping into a new way of doing things. Both have benefits, the former can lead one down a path of the dark night of the soul, and the latter can bring one into new and exciting changes and awakenings. Both are healing and cleansing, yet one focuses on the past in order to heal the present, and the other forgives the past and looks to the future.

Following a new path is not always an easy one. There are almost always lessons that need to be learned or relearned. Sometimes one needs to remain in a situation where they feel trapped. This is not meant to scare or cause harm. This is an experience that soul came here to revisit and overcome in this particular circumstance, yet work through it in a healthier and more forgiving way. For you see, we live in a hologram experiencing past, present and future all at the same time. Depending on where you are on your journey you can experience all three. For the most part, the human experience lives in the present, remembers the past, and envisions the future.

Allow your soul to guide you. By allowing and trusting your higher self to lead you to what you came here to do is where you will find your calling. It doesn’t have to be a job that pays thousands of dollars, nor does it have to be living from paycheck to paycheck. It’s a calling that comes from within. A passion to help, to heal, to love, to learn, to share or to give. Being there for someone in need. Being a shoulder to cry on. Carrying grocery bags for someone who cannot. Smiling at a stranger while walking down the street. Paying for the coffee for the person in line behind you. A simple complement. Finding joy in children playing while reminiscing about your own childhood.

We can also fill the void not only for others, but for oneself. Filling the void with love for others and self. Filling the void with compassion for others and self. Filling the void with understanding for others and self. Filling the void with helping one another without expecting anything in return. The list goes on…

Spirit wants humanity to simply love and care for each other. This is the lesson that humanity needs to remember, to relearn and be guided to do on a daily basis – to love and take care of each other. As well as having respect for each other and reverence for the beauty, healing and nourishment that Gaia provides each and everyone of us.

And so it is.

Finding Your Way Through The Shadows

Have you ever felt that there is something more to life than what you are experiencing now? Do you feel that there are blocks or obstacles that are holding you back from something more? Some refer to shadows as the Dark Night of the Soul. Working with ones shadows can be a freeing yet arduous task. Some shadows are of ones own making. Others, are inherited through ones DNA. And, some are intrinsically inherited or brought forward through a past life.

How does one work through these shadows? First, and foremost, it is essential that one acknowledges them. Becoming aware and willing to work with ones shadows is often the hardest and most difficult step in ones journey. Many push them aside and are unwilling to accept them, or are perhaps ashamed of their past behavior that is connected to them. There can be elements of anger, betrayal and humiliation connected to each and every shadow. For they are aspects of oneself that one does not want to deal with so they are pushed aside, and buried.

Working with one shadows can be a profound experience. It enables one to look at them from a different perspective as a bystander. For, you see, one is most often product of their current environment. When one does the inner work, they can often see or revisit a past experience that may have made them angry and lash out, and see it from a different and more wholesome viewpoint. Taking a look at and releasing the emotional connection from each shadow brings wholeness into ones being. Becoming aware of the hardships and emotional turmoil of ones path brings strength and understanding to ones journey. Being aware of the bumps and bruises of life brings a sense of insight to others who may be having a similar experience.

Shadow work can be a formidable task, but the end result can bring tranquility and harmony to your entire being; emotionally, physically, energetically and spiritually.

And so it is.

Self-Love

Archangel Gabriel’s Message of Self-Love

Dear Ones,

We ask that you bring your focus within. Feel where the restrictions, densities, memories of old, scarcity and sadness are being held. Bring your awareness to your heart space, the love center or heart chakra. Often times one expresses love for another, yet does not hold the space for self-love. We ask that each morning upon waking, you hold your hands over your heart and say, “I love you”.

We often hear the term “self-love”, yet fail to express it. The ego mind often plays the devil’s advocate, and causes one to doubt their abilities, thus find error within. Childhood experiences, outside influences, or an experience may have triggered the thought patterns that you are not good enough. We as the Collective ask that you bring yourself back to love. Pull yourself away from the negative experience and view it as if you were watching a movie. What do you see? What was your part? What do you know or understand now that you didn’t at the time? You see, life on the earth plane is that of duality. You are here to experience and return to love. Love for self, and love for others. The experiences that you have in this lifetime help your soul to evolve and lift in vibration and dimension.

When one brings love into their heart space, they see the world through a different lens. The world becomes much more beautiful, lighter and brighter. Self-love heals all wounds. It cleanses and clears one’s chakras, and allows the Violet Flame to shine brightly within while expanding the auric field to embody a higher vibrational flow of the golden white light of God and the Universe.

Those that acknowledge the missteps, mistakes and poor judgement without blaming others enables the energy of those mistakes to release and be cleared form the auric field. The lessons will be learned, but not held energetically or emotionally to cause karmic injury or debt. When one acknowledges a wrong doing, whether it is done to self or another, a true act of sorrow is imperative for the energy bodies to release it as well. Learn from poor judgement and injuries. This is how one learns to exercise non-judgement and not hold on to resentments. It also helps clear karmic debt. Compassion for self and others brings understanding as well as gratitude for the lessons learned for the experience.

And so it is. 💚

Finding Your Way Forward

This will be a reoccurring theme in the ongoing weeks for those who are seeking to find their soul path.

How do you find your way forward? Go within. Quiet the mind. Breathe in the light that flows into your crown chakra. Focus on the spark that lights your way. Follow that light. It’s as if there is a cord that is pulling you forward. Let all of the outside chatter fall away. The chatter is just noise, a distraction from your highest truth. Not all life paths or service is a monumental task or undertaking. Sometimes it is becoming a better person, being more positive and supportive of others and self. It can be the simple task of helping an elderly neighbor with grocery shopping, or helping them clean their home. Or, a young mother who is struggling to keep it together may need an hour or two babysitting so she can make dinner or work from home for a few hours. The service to others is endless. It comes from the heart, the soul.

Finding your way forward can also be seen as a yearning, a childhood dream that has been put on the shelf because you feel it is unattainable, or the self-talk that “there’s no way I can make a living doing that”. Who is telling you this? Ego, society? Soul knows! The yearning may not be a career, it could be a hobby as well. A hobby that slowly grows into something else, something more.

Finding your way forward is being open to the possibilities that you had not thought of for yourself. Being stuck under what society dictates as a meaningful job or position. But what and who says it is or it is not proper or just or “a good job”?

Go within. Soul knows what is right for you. Not the news. Not the media. Not the social pages. Not society. Soul. Soul is the I AM. Soul is the divine within you. Soul is you in physical form. Go within. Meet your Soul. Sit with Soul. Listen to what your Soul has been asking of you. That is where your answers lie.

And so it is.

Archangel Uriel

Betrayal

Betrayal is a wound of the heart. It’s a wound of the soul. It is an act that can rock your world. How does this happen when you love someone? What have I done to be betrayed? How does one get over and heal from betrayal?

Being betrayed by a person that is close to you can leave an imprint on your soul. It often feels like a connection has been severed. A direct wound to the heart. A betrayal is a deliberate act against someone. An intended act or violation of trust. So, how does one heal from it? How does one move forward? Let us explore this concept.

Betrayal of the heart and trust.

“We as energetic beings of light are here with you now to help you discern a betrayal, and how to heal your heart. When one opens their heart and invests in another with love and trust, they assume that it is reciprocated. When the other being is not of like mind or heart, they have no intention of keeping that bond. There are often small clues that are ignored, or passed off as a “mood”. When they happen often enough there is a shift in energy that gently nudges and begins to sound the energetic alarm. When this happens, we of the Collective, say to you, guard your heart for there are those who seek to harm rather than love.

There are those who feel threatened by another whom they covet, and will stop at nothing to take possession of that person whom you have put your love and trust in. There are also those that are weak of mind and will that can be easily swayed by another. Thus, they are easily pulled into the energy of another. One who was pure of heart and of good intentions, but weak in will can often be overtaken by another. Thus, a change can be gradual and unnoticed until they find that their once strong held beliefs are not their own, but of another.

We ask that you go within and ask these questions if you feel that there is something off. Is this person of pure heart? Or, is there an ulterior motive behind their words or actions?

Go within and connect with God, the Angels and your guides. Find the peace in the alignment of the Universe. Inhale the cleansing and clearing breaths of the energetic love that surrounds you. Be at peace with who you are. Be at peace with your creator. For, they are the All Mighty, and the everlasting love that you can always count on. Connect with that love through your breath. Infuse your body, mind and spirit with the energy of the Universe. Call on the Angels of Love, Angels of Harmony, Angels of Cleansing and Clearing, the Angels of Healing. Continue to focus on love. Meditate on love. For each step forward is a step to reclaim you. A step to release the betrayal. It’s a step closer to God. For when there is a betrayal of the heart, it is not you that has stumbled. For you have regained more. You have ascended to another level called forgiveness.”

The Council of Light.

And so it is.

Amen. Amen. Amen.

Inner Calling

What is soul revealing to you?

An inner calling is that passion that consumes a person. It sets in motion action steps to fulfill the service that soul is guiding them through. It’s a passion that runs so deep within that it can no longer be ignored. This inner calling guides and directs a person each and every day with new inspirations, new guidance and ideas. The synchronicities continue to materialize.

Do you have this? Are you paying attention to the signs and synchronicities? Most often they are subtle. They can be a whisper that floats through your mind. It can be a song that repeats over and over in your head. It can be a dream. It can be repeating numbers or even signs from nature. Whatever they may be, start to take notice. Write them down and begin to connect the dots. What are my guides trying to tell me? What are the angels trying to show me?

Bring into your awareness what invokes joy. What initiates your passion? What brings you an all consuming idea that you can’t let go of. Feel this joy, passion or idea. Are the messages full of compassion, service to others or to Mother Earth? How does it make you feel?

These inner callings are your soul, your higher self talking to you. Be open to the subtlety. Be open to change. Be open to feeling a bit uncomfortable with the unknown path that this inner calling may take you. Being comfortable and sentient as it continues to clear out old stagnant energies. Soul wants us to continue to move forward into our purpose that we outlined prior to coming into this incarnation. Don’t allow fear to block you or hold you back. Take small steps forward each day.

Decluttering

The process of decluttering helps one to be clean and clear. It allows the energy to flow freely, without being “clogged” or “bogged down” with old, unused and unnecessary stuff.

We suggest you go through each room and declutter. Remove unused and unwanted items. Broken, old, out-of-date, items. The material does not follow you when you cross over. The material is temporary. What has not been used in 2 years — we suggest you remove it. Old files, receipts, clothes, books electronics. Keep removing. Simplify. Organize. You will feel much lighter — physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. Things tend to have an unconscious hold on a person. Release the restriction. Material things take up space.

So do old, unwanted thoughts, patterns, and beliefs.

Declutter your mind. What no longer resonates with you, release it. Thank it for the experience and the lesson. Sit with any emotional attachments. Feel where they settle in your physical being (vessel). What memories, feelings, thoughts, emotions do they bring forth? Be the observer. Step out of the play that is being performed. You are no longer the star of the show. You have become the audience. The observer. Once the play (memory) is over, thank it. If the emotional attachment (reaction) is no longer present, it’s time to close the curtain, for it no longer has any hold over you. Move on to the next performance, and repeat this process until you feel lighter and brighter. As one moves forward (ascending), the replays become less and less. Remember, your part in the play (memory) is done. Release, the act of decluttering, is the ultimate goal. Sometimes one needs to watch the play more than once to understand the lesson. Sometimes, the play has more than one act, and the final act has not arrived yet. There may be lessons and experiences that have not been learned, or there is more than one lesson or experience that one needs to learn in order to grasp what needs to be released more completely.

Remember to thank each lesson and experience, as it is part of your path, part of your soul’s evolution.

Declutter often as it lifts the spirit and cleanses the soul!

Peace be with you,
The Angels of the Light 💗

We are not promised an easy path, or even a clear one.

Follow your soul path through learning and experiencing.

Following a soul path can be all about working through the blocks and off-road navigating. One may ask, “Why is life so difficult?” Or, “I have no idea what I want to do with my life.” Sometimes we enter into a situation with excitement and drive, only to find out that it isn’t what we expected and no longer desire it. Others may just know what it is that they are to do in this life, and eagerly set out to accomplish their goal. One may feel the need to follow in the footsteps of another, only to realize that his “heart” isn’t in it and finds himself at a loss of what path to take.

Being in alignment with soul doesn’t necessarily mean that one’s path will be easy. There are many examples of those who have accomplished much, but had many obstacles that hindered them along the way. We all come into this world with a purpose for this lifetime. We are meant to learn what we have not in previous lifetimes. Ascension is the term that is often used in today’s circles. On the other hand, some believe that we only have this one lifetime in the physical plane to achieve “something”. And that is okay too! The point here is the learning and experiencing while you are here on the earth plane.

Souls are energy that are brought into a physical body. Soul paths are contracts that were previously agreed to prior to coming into this physical form. Here are some questions to ponder. Who said that life is easy? Who’s said that those who have difficult lives deserve better? Why should they should suffer so much?

Let’s go back to the soul contract and the re-learning what one did not fully understand, or learn, in the previous lifetimes. For example, one could have been a wealthy land owner that treated his servants very poorly. He could have done this over many lifetimes, and never learned the lesson of compassion. Prior to coming into this lifetime, his soul contract was that of experiencing the same treatment he gave his servants. His lesson is to learn and experience how it feels to be treated thusly. His path is to find compassion.

Now your probably wondering how can someone feel compassion if he’s poor, starving, and maybe even living on the streets? Or, he was born into this situation, so it’s not his fault. Humans have free will. Regardless of their situation, all have choice. Making positive or negative choices are constantly impacting our lives, thus our soul path. Soul gently guides us every second of every day with love always being the ultimate outcome. However, many of us veer off our path and ignore our innate intuition.

Suffering, pain, lack, and hardships can be part of one’s path. For example, Mother Theresa was given a choice. Live the life of a nun within a safe convent community, or serve the poor. Following her soul path gave her the courage and will to take the trip to Calcutta, India to live with and serve the poor. She had complete faith and trust that her, and the needs of others, would be met. The point is, she fully opened her heart to love. She embraced her soul path. Her life, and the life of those she served was filled with strife, hardships, and sometimes threats of violence. The path she chose was not an easy one. Through her work with the poor she found compassion and humility.

Trusting your intuition and inner guidance, we allow the Universe to guide us. Asking the question, “How may I serve?” Doesn’t always give the answer that is expected, or easy. Sometimes the path is a difficult one. If you accept it with an open heart, the Universe will guide you.

The struggle that many of us have is lacking true faith and trust. Many don’t want to do the work that is required to achieve soul path success. And the term success shows up differently to each and every one of us. Pride, ego, greed, and selfish self-love often blind people to their true path. When one finds success through greed for example, that is not in the highest form of love. That success can come crashing down, and one finds himself in an unfortunate circumstance where he needs the help of another. Through the kindness of another’s help, he can learn the lessons of compassion, love, faith, and trust that he did not initially learn through his rise to success.

Monetary success and fame are not always the ultimate goal of ones path. Struggle, hardships, poverty, and illness can very well be part of one’s soul path in this lifetime. That concept is difficult to imagine. Learning and experiencing by following your intuition takes courage. However, the journey is what’s important. Your soul is constantly speaking to you, through your dreams, coincidences, deja vu, or even the people you meet. No one soul path is the same. Continuing to grow and ascend allows each soul to evolve into the next dimension. Striving to reach the ultimate goal of unconditional love for all.
