On Sunday morning, with a deck full of leaves and no power, I sat to listen to the Divine and have myself a little conversation. I looked up to see this amazing creator (see grasshopper picture on the left). I've been seeing a lot of grasshoppers lately. On my car, on my deck, hopping out in front of me on a stone path. So I wanted to share the message of this beautiful creator with you.
One time when I was in corporate America, my friend and partner in crime, Ken Hopper, wrote an entire memo in buzz words. It was the funniest thing. The memo said all the right things but "at the end of the day" was hollow of meaning.
As you know, I’m a Teacher of Integrity (Axiom of Translation). I speak with a lot of leaders and healers. One of the statements that really frustrates this part of my Soul is the belief that because someone is in the spiritual field there is no need for new awarenesses. I have a coach and I have said…”Well, everything feels really great today, so nothing pops into my head. Let me conduct a further check-in.” When I do that, my Soul always has something to say. “Let’s go deeper here. Let’s experience more joy. We can be more aware here.”
The Divine shows up in my life in ways that are in my face and some sneaky ways. I keep seeing messages, images and signs from the Divine that I AM LOVED. This photo on the curb outside the local Starbucks was the latest. Not the obvious place to "find" love. What if you approached each day with the knowing that you are loved? What miracles would you participate in? What signs from the Divine would you experience? I challenge you to set the intention today that you are loved and gently be aware when you resist, deny and move away from that intention.
Sitting here in limbor I still got a little time to search my Soulr Meanwhile they're putting up resistancer But I know my faith will lead me on Sitting Here in Limbo, The Neville Brothers It's all about outsmarting the fear. Not judging it, not beating it and not ignoring it. The simple fact is fear and love are a choice. The complexities come in making your choice. The idea here is to determine where you are, ask conscious-raising questions and decide to turn to the truth. Create a conscious connection with your Soul via your Soul Language team.
This is all about you making a choice to be one with the Divine and to experience your Divinity more in each experience of your life. So, let's start with a couple of questions: Create a conscious connection with your Soul via your Soul Language team. "What is your greatest desire?" "What choices are you making in your life based on this desire?" (list both positive and not) So at this point you have some new or deeper awareness about yourself and you have a sense of your patterns based on this desire.
Definition: Grace-- favor or good will 1. Saying Grace How frequently to you offer yourself good will? Today, just be aware of how often you are choosing something else over love, compassion, joy, good will, and grace. When you notice that you are not, just pause and simply say, "I offer myself and others good will." See how that shapes your day. 2. Gracing Us With Your Presence I'm so glad you are here on this earth at this time. Thank you for all the gifts, talents and love you offer to the world. Who can you thank today for sharing their grace with you?
Before you read this week’s tip, pick a place in your life that you want transformation and read the tip with that intention in mind. 1. Stop Blaming
How can you build trust in yourself and the Divine? I think it all goes back to the moment you feel that you "blew" your own trust. The moment that you made a free-will choice that crossed a Soul value for yourself. And I'm going to call that moment the "Moment of Non-Forgiveness." Basically, you are holding a very big grudge against yourself and the Divine. And this is resulting in a lack of honesty, trust and faith in yourself and therefore, the Divine.
Why are you giving? Truly ask yourself this question. Are you giving to get? Are you giving to make yourself "feel better?" Are you giving because it is your Divine nature? There isn't a right or wrong answer here. There is an answer that will create a more conscious, sustainable and powerful life. 1. With Your Own Agenda
If you wish to receive more community, then you get to shed light on where you are not allowing that to happen for yourself. The following suggestions about where they noticed where they could open up more to receive more of their community came from some of the Business of Soul peeps. 1. We All Want Community
I was in the bank and overheard someone talking about the hot and steamy weather we were experiencing in NJ. I had this thought: In winter I was saying it was too cold and complaining about the snow. Here it is getting to be summer and I’m feeling it is way too hot. When will I feel like the weather is just perfect and enough for me…Most of us live in a world of not enough. As we grow in consciousness, that theme can get sneaky, like the example above. Just notice what is the big theme in your life. Then allow yourself the opportunity to choose something new. 1. I AM
What's your great challenge in life? What is that theme that has run through most of your life? Some great challenges are: not enough, fear of failure, trust issues and speaking your truth. Just because we are experiencing a challenge doesn't mean: • that you are "doing" something wrong • that the Divine doesn't love you or listen to you • that you are unworthyr In fact, your challenge can allow you to have a deeper relationship with the Divine, be of service to others, and help you turn toward Universal truth (that you are part of the Divine).
I define true service as sharing your gifts and talents with the intention to be of service to all involved (that means me). I find the key to be of true service in my business is the belief that “I’m being loved, supported and provided for by the Universe.” Also, to be of true service, I had to let go of people pleasing. I also had to determine what I truly wanted and how I feel before saying yes to anything (this is an on-going process). I trust that this tip will help you to see when you are in service or servitude. 1. The Intention Behind The Servicing
I'm just a little girl lost in the momentr I'm so scared but I don't show itr I can't figure it out, it's bringing me downr I know I've got to let it go and just enjoy the showr The Show, Lenka Feelings of unworthiness are often accompanied with feelings of shame. Often, we know the truth deep down inside of us, that we are enough, and yet we sometimes can be a dominated by our patterns and experiences (especially painful experiences).
I have been noticing several situations from the community. These are topics that several of you have asked me over the last couple of weeks. When these situations happen, I feel that there is something in the "community" consciousness that is ready to be healed.
Healing your self-esteem and accepting your value in the world WILL transform your life. About 85% of the people on this planet suffer from some kind of low self esteem problem and because of those issues are struggling to achieve their desires. What you say is a reflection of how you “feel” ...
Our internal relationship is the material that we use to create our reality. If you are experiencing "commitment issues" in your outer world, the place to look to transform that is in your inner world. 1. Make the Choice Sometimes we are afraid to make a choice so we sit on the fence and wait for a sign from the Divine. The problem here is that most of the time we are in fear, so we can't "see" or "hear" the sign from the Divine. Start with the commitment to yourself. To listen to yourself, to love yourself, and to be aware. 2. It's Not You, It's Me
1. What Can You Offer? We all have our own pain and challenges. This sometimes places us in a position where we feel like we have nothing left to give…Connect to your Soul Language Team (if you don’t know your Soul Languages yet, ask Divine Intelligence to make that connection for you at this time, until you have a conscious knowledge of your Soul Team) and ask your Soul to show you the size of your spirit and light…Then prepare to be amazed! 2. A Child With Promises
1. Stop Pushing Yourself I realized this week how hard I push myself. Packing boxes for my move when I have a fever, not a good idea and not very loving for myself. How hard are you pushing yourself? Are you the type that has to send one last email before lunch or is working at 10 pm at night? If you answered yes to any of the above questions, STOP and ask yourself if this behavior is showing yourself love. 2. What’s Love Got To Do With It?
Are you ready to really understand something big? Ready -- everything in our world is a reflection of a part of us. This is why I take resistance so personally. What I mean by personally is I'm talking about in regard to me not directed or intended towards me. As a Teacher of Integrity (Soul Language; Axiom of Translation), I know that individuals are seeking my help and guidance to come back into unconditional love with themselves. So for a better life for myself and to help other individuals in a deeper way, I get to work the resistance. Here are some of my ahhs:
How were you taught to create? Do you believe that you are the master creator of your own life? In The Four Agreements, Ruiz talks about dreaming with awareness. I call this creating with focus. What this means is using the foundational belief that you are creating your own life to create with true Soulful focus, instead of creating with blinders on or from fear. Love creates love. Fear creates fear. 1. Taking Responsibility

A couple of months ago I came across the word Pneuma. It is the Greek word for Spirit. When I first heard the word it was like seeing an old friend again. What does it mean to "Unlock Your Spirit Within?" n In simplest terms it is about allowing your higher self/soul/spirit to be the captain of ...
We often play hide and go seek with our lives: hiding from what we desire, hiding from our life purpose, and/or hiding from ourselves. This tip is to help you stop hiding and move out in front. 1. Acceptance
I often want my life to play out like a holiday musical, where people just stop and suddenly burst into song. What I realized is that it can be like a holiday musical -- inside. When I'm in a bad mood...wow, I can really create a lot of drama, confusion and misery (for myself). When I'm of "good cheer" well...I can create something out of nothing...My suggestion is that you carry this season into the rest of your year. 1. Finding Your Theme Song
1. Remove the Blame If you are living in blame, guess what? You are living way below your happiness level. How do you shift the blame? Take responsibility for your participation in your life, forgive yourself, and be open to feeling the joy. 2. Enjoy Every Moment Mad, the cat, never seemed to worry about the past or the future. Just sitting in a ray of light could have him purring for hours. Where are you letting your worry control your happiness? Just notice how you are stepping out of the moment today and with love pause and say, “I’m enjoying this moment.”
Why are you striving these daysr Why are you trying to earn gracer Why are you cryingr Let me lift up your facer Just don't turn awayr By Your Side - Tenth Avenue North Humans tend to be attached to a lot of "things." We tend to utilize these things, people and situations to ground us to the planet, to create our value and to experience love. And yet, attachment can create the illusion that you are not one with the Divine.
Are you a Master of Service? Do you feel a deep knowing you have a gift to offer the world that is needed? How do you give generously without attachment and give so everyone is served (including yourself)? That's the dance. It feels joyful! 1. Does It Feel Good For Me?
What do you really want out of your life? List out all of those things that you want to be different. What do those things all have in common? Here are a couple of common themes: not enough, trust issues, fear of failure, and judgment. Instead of focusing all your time on getting new clients, worrying about money, trying to fix your relationship, I suggest you focus on feeling: enough, successful, full of trust and without judgment.

Tools only work if you feel a personal connection to using that resource. It is easy to be balanced and unconditional when your life is amazing. It is when we are experiencing a challenge or even just living our everyday lives that we can get caught up in old programming and fall into the perception that we are disconnected from the Divine.

Why are we so afraid to be in the stillness? Why are we so afraid just to pause and stop doing? What lies are we believing about the stillness? What are we afraid to hear? Part of it, I believe, is that we are afraid to allow the Divine more into our hearts. Our minds are afraid of what that means. Another part, I believe, is that we are afraid to listen to what we truly want and desire for fear that it won't come true.
Have you ever purchased a new car? So many decisions to make: type, color, size, etc. Most of the time we don't place any attachment to those types of decisions. We can look at it from the point of view of what supports us and our community. (In the case of the car, your family.) The exact opposite can be true about defining or deciding what type of (spiritual) leader you wish to BE! Almost immediately come the comparisons, the fears and the judgments. Here are some of the fears, judgments and obstacles that create Spiritual Leadership confusion:
It's 10:01 pm, and I'm rewriting the newsletter. Why? Today was a day of profound experiences, and I want to share them with you. I'm sharing my experiences with you because I truly wished someone would have shared their experiences with me. I would have walked the same road, but at least I would have known that there was support on it. I started and ended my day the same way -- with radio interviews (very, very different radio interviews).

Every moment of everyday you are creating something. Often we weigh ourselves down in what we aren't: not good enough, unclear, not loved, etc.

We are very complex creatures. If you have ever seen the Matrix (and if you haven't, please watch it, big metaphysical movie), there is a scene where Morpheus offers Neo the choice of two different pills: blue, you go back to the Matrix and forget about your new awareness, and red, you become aware, very, very aware.
What do you really desire and why? What prevents us from receiving it? And, why are we always trying to fix ourselves? What if you just let yourself be more open to being connected, lead and loved? How would that change how you feel each day? And, how would that change your life? I don't know any of these answers, but what I do know is that when I'm more open, I feel better. Let's connect and have a conversation with our Soul to allow us to be more open today.
Every time I turn on the radio, Pink comes out loud and clear. Now, I know a sign from the Divine when I hear one. Music has always been a way I hear the Divine. I believe this woman writes and sings from her Soul. She has this ability to put into words my fears, my hopes and dreams. She’s also a kick-ass, no-prisoner, and compassionate mama. I don’t read fan magazines. I only read People at the beach. I am interested in that mindset of genius. I am interested in how these individuals move way beyond human limitations.
The new year, just like a clear white piece of paper, holds so much promise. What I have done in the past is try and "do" more in the New Year - I figure that will give me peace, make me happy, and allow me to feel fulfilled -- WRONG! It's the being that allows you to experience the Divinity of your Soul. I suggest you connect with your Soul Language Team by "seeing" them sitting across from you and ask the following questions. "What would I like to feel and be this year?" "What do I get to accept about myself that will allow those beings and feelings to be expressed?"

I see every day that people are increasingly aware of what it means to be more Soulful, to live more in Spirit and to be more heart centered, and yet I have also noticed that people often approach these concepts with their minds instead of their hearts. There is no formula for transformation. We all have different experiences, a different Soul Agenda (you might say mission), and different ways we need support and love.r
