THREE CARD TRICK

With all the chaos around us, it is sometimes difficult to know which way to turn or what to do next, especially if you are stuck in an uncomfortable energy.

I have found that using three cards (from what ever type of card set you like – any will do!) can help enormously. It provides you with information you can use to kick start a shift.

Take two with a very clear intention:

  • the first one is to show the energy you are currently in.
  • the second is to show the energy you need to be in.

Look at them and allow yourself to feel the difference between the energy of the two qualities shown on the cards and how different they are.

Connect to each separately and then connect to both of them together so you are ready to take your third card.

  • This one is to show the transition between where you are and where you need to be. It is like a steppingstone and moving into this energy will help you shift out of the space you are currently in and move into the one you want to be in.

This is only a basic template. Feel free to adapt it so it will become more useful for you. When ever you read about a technique, it is always up to you to see if it suits you or if you need to adjust it slightly, so it becomes more helpful.

One tip – if the second card is negative – take an additional one, asking to be shown what negative energy is causing this, so you have more information about what you need to do to move into a more positive one.

And, don’t always expect to see a negative quality for the first card. Sometimes you are stuck in a bad space and the card will reflect this, but other times, even though you are in a good space, you can be aware you need to leave it and embrace a different one entirely to move one. But, there is nothing wrong with shifting into a more fabulous one!

Bright Blessings!

ORDER OUT OF CHAOS

As these are the keywords for fluorite, it seems like we should all be using industrial sized bits of this lovely stone at the moment.

Thankfully, though, a small tumblestone will be more than enough!

I could write pages and pages about this stone. It is incredibly useful in so many  ways and in so many situations, but I thought I’d make it nice and easy to see the benefits of having it around, so you can chose how you would like it to help you at a glance rather than having to read through loads of information.

You can meditate with flourite for any of the following reasons:

  • To clear confusion and it will also help if you are feel overwhelmed by anything
  • To relieve stress
  • To bring clarity to your thoughts
  • To give you unexpected insight on anything happening in your life
  • To clear your head
  • To keep your mind focused, sharp and clear – but this only works effectively if you make the effort to use the stone to clear your head first… sometimes repeatedly at the moment.
  • To attune to your Higher Self on a new, deeper level
  • To understand your purpose in any situation

Also, if you wear or carry it, it will strengthen your aura, blocking negativity at the outer edge of the auric sheath. But the good thing about fluorite is that it doesn’t block any positive energy – that still gets through to you. It is, without doubt, one of the very best protective stones because most of the others just stop everything – the good and the bad – and they don’t allow any gentle or beneficial energy to reach you.

It is also a very effective grounding stone, which makes it priceless at a time like this when so many people are completely out of their bodies.

One of the best ways to work with fluorite is to place it on your brow chakra, so the energy from the stone can go straight into your head. As long as you set your intention to use the energy from the stone to calm yourself and clear your mind, it will go straight to work, and it is unbelievably effective. Working with it is always a blessing and the relief you can experience if you are willing to really let go of all the thoughts that are troubling you, is sometimes quite profound. I recommend it a lot.

A good way to use fluorite to clear your head is to use the stone’s grounding potential and place it between your feet, with the intention of pulling any excess mental energy out of your head. Then, it will seem as if any excess mental energy you have in your head is simply tugged down through your body to your feet where it can simply flow out of your energy system into the ground. It feels like a miracle if you have way too many thoughts crowding inside your head!

Flourite also works well with other stones if you want to achieve a particular goal, though, as always, setting a clear intention before you start working is essential.

It is good for spiritual awakening and other stones that enhance this aspect of the stone are: Amethyst, turquoise, iolite, sodalite, moonstone, hematite.

If you want to identify and start working to clear any negative thought or behaviour patterns, these additional stones can help you do this: Sodalite, aquamarine, moonstone, emerald, agate

All you have to do is decide how you want the fluorite to help you, choose your additional stone and sit with fluorite in one hand and second stone in the other hand. See if they feel comfortable. If they don’t, try swapping hands. If they still don’t feel comfortable, choose another stone!

Lastly, if you place a piece of flourite in a room, it will balance and stabilise the energy within it and, when you are in the room, it will do exactly the same for you.

I hope fluorite helps you as much as it has always helped me.

Bright Blessings!

CRYSTAL TIP FOR JULY

Rhyolite

Keywords: Self-respect, self-love, acceptance of the past, happiness and love

Chakra: Heart, solar plexus, brow and crown

Element: Earth

There are so many wonderful crystals to choose from when I start to think about writing about them, it often makes it difficult to choose which one to write about. They are all valuable and will help change you and your life, but one thing about this month’s crystal stood out for me… the phrase – rhyolite is like an anti-depressant with any side-effects. It seemed like the perfect stone for a lot of people during these strange, unsettling times. It is associated with love, joy and hope, so using it will help a great deal if you are struggling with change, transition, fear and anxiety, separation…

I could go on and on because there is a long, long list of things people are experiencing, but the vibration of rhyolite contains within it the energy that can help you cope, or indeed overcome whatever is troubling you on a deep and often profound level. You just have to be willing to do the work and allow change to happen.

Obviously, I have no idea if this will be easy for you. I have no idea what is currently happening in your life, so all I can say is – get a piece of this amazing multi-coloured crystal, hold it in your non-dominant hand and set the intention that with each in breath you pull its energy in through your palm chakra, up your arm and just let it flow into your body… it will do what ever it needs to do to help you.

One of the other things rhyolite does is to help you realise your highest potential. It will help you see what you can really do to help yourself and to see past the chaos to something better. It will encourage you to chase your dreams with renewed energy and you can use its uplifting energy to rise up and out of all the low vibrational rubbish that is floating round the earthplane. You can’t change it. Sometimes, you can’t even seem to get rid of it, but you can, without a shadow of a doubt, rise above it if you keep your own vibrational rate high and strong. Rhyolite will help you do this as long as it is within our energy field. Holding it is great. You absorb the energy very quickly but carrying it in your pocket will also work.

If you want to use the stone with an intention, hold it on your heart chakra and ask for the vibrations from the crystal to clear away any emotional blockages you have there and just let it work. It knows what to do! All you have to do is allow the energy to cleanse the negativity from your heartspace. And, it doesn’t stop there. This precious crystal then helps you focus on what is important to you… what really makes your heart sing. So sit with it once the clearing has finished and ask to see what is good and true and meaningful in your life… and if it is missing… ask for help to find it… or re-discover it if you had it and lost it during all this madness.

Rhyolite is also a useful crystal to work with at the brow chakra as it can help you re-set your mind, so you can see the negativity in your life and, once you have identified it, it will be easier to deal with it… and continuing to work with rhyolite will help you do this. It’s vibration will be a real blessing to you in so many ways… I couldn’t possibly list them. To be honest, there would be no point because they will be different for everyone who uses the stone. This change in your life is a co-creation and the outcome will always depend what your energy is like when you use the stone. But, what ever happens, it will always help. So just sit with rhyolite for twenty minutes and notice what thoughts come up and, if they are negative, just ask the stone to help you dissolve this energy, and fill the space left behind with its own uplifting vibrations. It will always facilitate a positive transformation… as long as you let it, of course. You can always resist opening to new possibilities and, if you do, maybe you should sit with the crystal a little longer and ask to see why you would want to do this.

If you feel your solar plexus needs clearing, you can place rhyolite on this chakra and it will bring an emotional release, so use it wisely at this position. And, if you know you have self-esteem issues, you can work with focussed intent. It will help you learn to value yourself and all your gifts and talents. It will also help you align with your will and your personal power. These two things live in this chakra.

So, if rhyolite has found its way into your life before you read this… well, it means you are ready to start the transformation process and you just haven’t realised it! Just go for it!

And, if you go and get a bit after reading this, it is a huge thing, a massive positive step and it shows you are really ready to take responsibility for your own health and well-being. Please be proud of this! It’s a big deal and really, all you have to do is sit with this stone and let it fill you with a renewed sense of joy and inspiration!

Additional information you can use to set healing intentions when you work with rhyolite is shown below. Randomly pick a number  from 1 to 8 and see what has come up for you. It’s a great way of by-passing the mind and letting your intuition show you exactly what you need to be dealing with.

  1. It strengthens mind, body and soul.
  2. It helps you process the past so you can integrate it with the present, bringing peace of mind.
  3. It teaches you to live in the moment.
  4. It brings insight and resolution to difficulties, helping you find solutions for anything.
  5. It enhances self-esteem, self- worth, self-respect and self-love
  6. It allows you to learn to accept who you really are.
  7. It is a stone of solutions, change and progress.
  8. It helps you find the right path on a soul level.

One last thing – please be aware that rhyolite will bring things to resolution. It doesn’t matter what the problem is or has been…. It will get it sorted. You have to be prepared for this, so choose when you want to do really deep work with it. It will bring all your rubbish to the surface of your conscious mind and you will have to deal with it. But it will always help you clear the negativity and encourage you to move forward, and it will keep you safely anchored in the present moment rather than allowing you to hang on to people and experiences that are no longer helping you live the life you want to live, people and experiences that belong firmly in the past. And, remember that if you keep looking back… all you get is a crick in your neck!

Work with this lovely stone wisely and always listen to its wisdom!

Bright Blessings!

Connecting with Quan Yin

With stress levels soaring and so much fear and uncertainty all around us, perhaps now is a good time to think about connecting with Quan Yin. Her qualities of love and compassion would be perfect to combat the negativity that is almost rampant on the earthplane.

Any time you can spend with this lovely goddess will help you enormously, so here is a meditation to get you started. Feel free to adapt it in any way that suits you and makes your experience more real for you.

To be honest, you don’t even need the moon or a moonstone. Quan Yin will come as soon as you call her name, but I like them, so I always add them in when I’m working.

  • Hold your moonstone in your non-dominant hand and ask it to work with you, enhancing everything you do during your meditation… and remember to thank it for doing this as well!
  • Now relax and focus on your breath, setting a intention that you want to release any tension in your body on each out breath. Then, make your out breath long and slow and imagine the tension is just floating away on your breath.
  • Now imagine there is a vibrant full moon above you and connect to its energy. Be aware of it on all levels and breathe in its bright while and silver light. With each in breath, draw it into your heart chakra.
  • Now see or sense this bright moonlight flowing through your heart chakra into your central channel where it can move up and down from your heart, bringing everything into alignment….and keep breathing until you feel this alignment.
  • Now glance down at your moonstone and connect with it on a deeper level. Then set the intention that you want to breathe the energy of the crystal into your body. Feel it filling your lungs as you breathe it in and flowing everywhere.
  • And, as you breathe out, let go of any remaining tension and stress you are holding in your body.
  • Now be aware that the energy of the moonstone is moving. As it has calmed your body, it is going to calm your mind as well. So, allow it to flow up from your lungs to your mind and feel the gentle, soothing energy of the stone start to affect your thoughts, slowing them until you feel completely calm.
  • Now as you sit with the energy of the moonstone filling your mind and your body, it is time to connect with Quan Yin. All you have to do is call her name and she will come. She always does. So when she arrives, thank her for joining you, take a moment to attune to her beautiful energy and just sit in her energy. You don’t need to do anything else unless, of course, you want to. All you have to do is rest, held safely in her love and compassion and you can stay there for as long as you like.
  • If it feels appropriate, though, do talk to her and listen to the wisdom of her reply with an open heart and an open mind.
  • When you feel your work with her has finished, thank Quan Yin and your moonstone, return your awareness to your surroundings, ground and return.

So, I hope spending time with Quan Yin is beneficial to you … on all levels.

And, of course, don’t forget you can adapt this…you can ask any helper or guide to join you using the same meditation. So if you feel you need to spend time with anyone else, just go for it! It’s  all about what will help you get through this chaos!

Bright Blessings!

Ancestors – The Unseen Family

Well, while we have all been separated from the families we know and love recently, do take a moment to remember the members of your family line, who have been with you during lock down. They are always there… always loving you… always supporting you and maybe is it time to acknowledge them and send some gratitude their way for all the unseen help they will have been giving you during this stressful time. Just because you cannot see the ancestors, or in many cases cannot even feel them, it does not mean they are not there for you in all sorts of unexpected ways. They are always looking out for you.

Here is a small ritual you can do to connect with them. But before you do it, take a moment to think about any ancestral patterns you are aware of, especially ones that may have come up during lock down. You may well be experiencing someone else’s fear or frustration as well as your own… or any other negative emotion.

We have a lot of rubbish stored in out ancestral line, so why not take this opportunity to clear it. If you think about it, it is only in modern times that we have been able to move out of the fear of scarcity, of having no way to support ourselves, of being separated from our loved ones. There are hundreds of thousands of people who will have felt these things and we carry the imprint of it in our bodies and our minds. There will also be people who have suffered and felt intense grief over the loss of loved ones. All this is there within us… so see what comes up into your awareness for clearing and work with it. It will help you, those who have come before you and, of course, anyone who comes after you. If you clear it from your line, your descendants do not have to carry.

Also, think about the gifts in your life, all the things you have to be grateful for, so you can connect with that energy towards the end of the ritual.

And, if you are stuck at home and don’t have any candles… improvise! You can use two crystals or even two stones from your garden as your point of focus. Or even photos of people in your family – past for the energy that needs clearing and present for the gifts.

Candles are just nice, but you can work without them! You just have to be a little creative! If you use crystals or stones, all you have to do is clean them at the end.

  • Sit quietly and set your intention to connect to the ancestors and, when you see or sense a group of them have arrived, thank them for coming, taking a moment to attune to their energy. And, although you will already have thought about what you want to clear, ask if any of the ancestors have anything they want to add to your list. They may need something cleared that has not occurred to you. Listen with an open mind and an open heart.
  • Now light the first candle.
  • Now think about the negative qualities that came up into your conscious mind for clearing and be aware of how you are carrying them as old, ancestral patterns. Set a very clear intention that you would like to release the energy where ever it is stored in your Four Body System and focus on the negativity.
  • Now ask the ancestors to surround the thought form you have created with the love they have for you, the love they have always felt for you, forming a sphere with all the negativity safely contained within it. Then light the first candle and using your intention, project the sphere into the flame.
  • Watch the candle burn for a few minutes and visualise the qualities burning away from both you and all the ancestors who are carrying it in your family line.
  • Leave the candle to burn down completely.
  • Now visualise the positive qualities and gifts that came to mind before you started the ritual. Be grateful for every single one of them and allow yourself to see that despite everything that is happening around you, you are still blessed and while your mind is full of this positive energy, re-connect with the ancestors who helped you release the negativity, the ancestors who have been with you every single moment during this chaos, loving you, supporting you, caring for you, and say: Ancestors, thank you for all the gifts in my life … list them …  I light this candle in celebration of my life and all the help and support you have given me, even when I have not been aware of it.
  • Light the candle and watch it burn for a few minutes, visualising all the gifts and blessings that are in your life and quietly thank the ancestors for their part in keeping them flowing in your direction.
  • Now ask if there are any ancestors who want to come forward with a message. Again listen with an open mind and an open heart and thank them for sharing their wisdom with you.
  • Lastly, thank the whole group of people who came and supported you while you worked, ground firmly and return your awareness to your surroundings.

It’s just a simple little ritual that can be done over and over again and it will give you a real sense of connection to people who have been in your family. Granted, it’s not the same as actually being with the people you are missing, but ancestors are still part of that family.

Time to consciously remember that and welcome them back into your life at this time. It is always a joy and a blessing!

Bright Blessings!

Archangel Muriel

There are lots of angels you can call on in extreme circumstances like the ones we all find ourselves in, but for those of us who are sensitive one of the best one we can to ask to help us is Archangel Muriel. She is the archangel who has a special place in her heart for empaths and, since so many of us are constantly being hit by wave after wave of emotional energy from someone else at the moment… well, she should really start to become your Go To Angel on days when you feel you are close to overwhelm. I mean there are times when it feels as if you are drowning, or in imminent danger of being completely swept away by it all…

Muriel works with the energy of both Divine Light and Divine Love, and this will be enormously helpful to most of us. She will help you gain greater control over all your emotions and she teach you how to recognise when you have been swamped by emotions from someone else. When you work with her, you will learn to differentiate between when you are experiencing your own feelings and when you are experiencing someone else’s, so you can fully understand exactly what is happening to you and what you are actually dealing with. Then when you have identified what the energy is, Muriel will help you move it safely out of your Four Body System if it is not yours. It will just flow in and straight out of you! And, if it does turn out to be yours… well, she can help with that as well. It’s a win win for us really!

How fab is that! At the very least it is way better than having to carry unwanted negative energy around with you until you finally realise it’s not yours in the first place.

As well as all that, Muriel does a great many other things. A small list of the things she can help you with would be:

  • Finding peace
  • Loving with an open heart, including yourself and getting in touch with your deepest feelings
  • Become more aware of your intuition
  • Become more aware of yourself and the world around you
  • Expressing your true self
  • Finding your true path or calling
  • Think clearly at a crossroads in your life
  • Being more honest with yourself
  • Keeping emotions under control

I think that is a brilliant list of all the things we seem to need help with right now, so if I were you, I’d start talking to Muriel immediately!

The crystal associated with Muriel is rose quartz, but you do not have to have a piece to work with her. It just holds a vibration that is similar to hers, so it can make it easier to connect with her.

You can use any meditation to join with this lovely archangel or simply ask her to come and sit with you. At the end of the day, you need to feel comfortable working with her, so if you already have a way to connect, just go for it. If you do not, here is an exercise you could use. You can add a rose quartz and just sit with it for a little while before you ask Muriel to join you.

  • Ask Muriel to join you and when she arrives thank her for coming. Then take a moment to attune to her energy.
  • When you have done this, ask her to share her energy with you… it will be Divine Light ad Divine Love and this will have been radiating out of her from the moment she arrived. Now, using your intent, you want to focus the flow of these two powerful vibrations.
  • Ask Muriel to send this energy from her heart to your heart and wait for her to initiate the flow. You will see or sense it coming out of her heart in a bright stream of shimmering light and it will go straight into your heart chakra in the centre of your chest.
  • Just sit quietly and allow your heart to fill with this light.
  • You can now enhance how you work with these angelic vibrations if you want to by adding an intention for your breath work at this point.
  • You can intend to breathe the energy in to your heart on each in breath and, on each out breath, you can release any negative energy the angelic light has disrupted. You can ask for it to just float away on your breath, leaving more space in your heartspace for the energy flowing out of Muriel’s heart It is her gift to you when you work with her..
  • Continue until you are guided to stop. Thank Muriel, ground firmly and bring your awareness back to your surroundings.

At the end of the day, your journey with Muriel or any other angel is the only thing that really matters, not how you make that journey, how long your journey lasts or even what you choose to do while you are journeying with them. Calling them and asking for their help is the most important thing and, of course, working with them in an open and honest way, so you can start to release all the things that are holding you back and keeping you trapped in old ways of thinking and feeling and behaving.

There are many, many angels to choose from, but, today, Muriel just seemed like the perfect angel to recommend to you… have fun with her and just let her help you.

Bright blessings!

HU

Chanting HU (pronounced HOOO)

HU is a very ancient word and it has a very high vibrational rate.

Using it will enable you to raise or maintain your own high vibrational rate, allowing you to rise up and out of any negative energy that is around you. This is extremely important at this time.

It is an extremely powerful sound and, when you make it, it will benefit you in many ways… some of them unexpected.

When you chant HU, the sonic field you create with your sound will connect you more fully with the real you – the confident and knowing side of yourself – in other words it will help you find and embody your Authentic Self.

This process is enhanced if you set the intention to embody your Authentic Self before you start chanting.

Chanting HU positively raises the vibratory frequency of every cell in your whole body and can be tones silently or out loud and works in the same way all sound does:

Sound + Intention = Healing or Result

(I learned this from Jonathan Goldman www.healingsounds.com)

So, as always, the thought you have before you make your sound determines where it goes and what it does. So before you make the sound HU decide what you want to do when the vibration starts inside your body and works its way out.

Some of the Ways Chanting HU can help you.

  • Chanting HU allows you to connect with your Soul on a deeper level
  • Chanting Hu brings peace to your thoughts.
  • Chanting HU can take you into a space which allows your Soul to suggest a solution to a problem you are currently faced with.
  • Chanting HU brings a feeling of peace, warmth, and comfort.
  • Chanting HU takes you into a space where you can detach from the dramas around you – yours or anyone else’s. You become less inclined to react to them… though this won’t happen after one session. You have to work at it!
  • After chanting HU you may recognize the presence of the Divine more clearly in your life, especially through greater spiritual insights in your daily life.

HU Sound Meditations

Set a clear intention before you do either of these exercises

Chanting HU

  • Sit with your spine straight and chant HU, placing your attention on the pineal in the center of the head. If you draw a line down from your crown chakra and in from the brow – where these two lines intersect is the pineal gland.
  • Chant HU silently or out loud and, if your mind wanders, bring it back and re-focus on the sound of the chant.
  • Sound always returns to silence, so when you stop chanting listen to what arises from this silence.
  • After about five minutes of listening, you can either continue to listen and look inside or return to chanting again.
  • After another five minutes more, ground and return.

The times are approximate, of course. The idea is to spend time doing both chanting and listening and see where you go and what you learn… or what you become aware of. It is your sound and your journey on the sound current you create. Go with whatever happens. It will be perfect for you!

There is no right or wrong. There is only your sound and your experiences.

Hu Breathing Exercise

  • in and out through nose for one minute. Think HU as you breathe out
  • in and out through mouth for one minute. Chant HU as you breathe out
  • in through mouth and out through nose for one minute. Think HU as you breathe out
  • in through nose and out through mouth for one minute. Chant HU as you breathe out

Have fun!

Bright Blessings!

More Help From Clear Quartz

Any quartz crystal with a termination will direct the energy towards or send it away from your body, depending on which way the point is facing. Once you know this and set a very clear intention for the work you intend to do and the healing you wish to co-create with your quartz, you can start to move energy in many ways.

The technique below will help you to self-treat, so you can start to feel better… or at least more vibrant!! You will need to repeat the procedure for each place you find any trapped energy. Or any place that needs re-filling with new, radiant energy. Or you can simply use the last bullet point on its own if you feel ungrounded. Using a quartz on each foot chakra will always help!

  • Cleanse your quartz and sit quietly, connecting with your physical body and ask to be shown where you are holding any energy that your body no longer wants or needs. After a few moments you will become aware that some parts of your body are feeling slightly different from others. You will probably sense the parts that need help because they feel congested, hot, tense, or you may even become aware of a painful sensation. This is just your body telling you where it needs a little help to release the negative energy stored inside it. If you find more than one spot that needs treating, repeat the procedure separately for each one.
  • When you have found the place where you need to start your self-treatment, put the palm of your non-dominant hand over the area and set your clear intention to release any energy your body no longer needs from that particular spot with the help of your quartz point.
  • Then, holding the quartz in your dominant hand, point the termination away from you and down towards the ground.
  • Now breathe deeply and ask your quartz to pull the energy you no longer need out of your body. It will then flow to your shoulder, down your arm and out through the crystal into the ground. Visualisation will help if you feel you want to do this. If not, the crystal knows what to do, so just let it work and carry on breathing.
  • When you feel the release is complete, thank your quartz and check your body again. You need to see if your body wants to replace the energy you have downloaded into the ground with another more beneficial one from your quartz.
  • If you get the impression your body only needed to release, not re-fill, go straight to the last bullet point and ground.
  • If you need to re-fill as well, cleanse your quartz and set your intention, asking your quartz to send some of its energy into your body through the termination. Then hold it in your dominant hand, pointing the termination towards the part of your body you have just treated with the intention of replacing the old, stagnant energy with the new vibrant energy from your quartz.
  • Then breathe deeply and see or sense the crystal sharing its lovely energy with you. Be aware of it flowing into your body from the end of the point and continue until the area feels replenished.
  • Lastly, point your crystal down towards your feet, using the energy pouring out of the termination to ground yourself firmly. Point it at each foot in turn, with the clear intention of activating each foot chakra, so you become anchored to the earth.

I hope this simple technique helps you… and always remember to cleanse your crystal at the end and thank it. It will have done some sterling work on your behalf, so sending gratitude is a lovely way of repaying this.

Bright Blessings!

Body Blessing

Since there has been so much negative energy around, especially fear, and a lot of it has probably been directed at your body, maybe it is time to give your body a break and direct a more positive energy towards it. It is, without a doubt, doing a sterling job, and it should be appreciated for doing it.

Using your intent you can direct the words of this blessing to yourself or you can ask a goddess, angelic or another helper or guide to bless the different parts of your body.

Bless my eyes that I can see clearly at all times, separating truth from the illusions that surround me.

Bless my mouth so I can speak my truth without fear, but always with love.

Bless my ears so I am able to listen to everything that is said to me, not just hear the words.

Bless my hands so I am able to reach out to others with nothing but love.

Bless my heart so I am filled with a love I can share.

Bless my legs so I can feel the power of my own strength.

Bless my feet so I can find and walk on my own true path.

If you want to, you can also add this line, even if you are a man. You still have access to the same energy of creativity that women hold in this space.

Bless my womb that I may be in touch with my creative energies and the creative energy of the universe.

And, of course, if you feel any other parts of your body need blessing… add anything you like. This is only a template for a blessing. Feel absolutely free to change it in any way so it resonates with you, but particularly your astonishing body.

An example might be…

Bless my knees so I can become more flexible and free of fear, so I am ready move forward in a whole new exciting way.

Just ask your body. It will always tell you what it needs and now is the perfect time to be quiet and actually listen.

Bright blessings!

Stuck in the Past or Creating a New Future?

We keep being told now is the time to build something new, to create a different life that is ready to go when the chaos is all over. But, how exactly do we do that? How can we even perceive what our world will be like in the next hour, let alone the next month or year? We are moving into something we have never encountered before.

Well, a good place to start is to get rid of as much energy connected to the past (or in some cases even the present) as possible… in effect creating a bit of space in your life for all these nice, new things that are waiting to come your way! You also need to consciously let them go, releasing the energy that is trapped in your Four Body System. It will be stuck all over the place in any part of your system because all of us have not only been storing it up in this lifetime. We have been storing it up in every lifetime! It is time for it to go now.

So, start by doing just that… in the morning just set the clear intention that with every out breath, you are breathing out the past, specifically any energy connected to the past that is preventing you from creating something new in your life – the thoughts, the feelings, the pain, the limitations, the fear, the…. add whatever you need to the list because, after all, you know what needs to go! You won’t lose the good things… just the things that are keeping you stuck in the past.

When you’ve done that for a few days… and I do mean a few days because we all have a rather large past that we are dragging around with us like the proverbial ball and chain, so stick with it for a while to make sure you have lots of space ready to breathe in the future!

You don’t have to know what that is… you just have to be open to receive the energy connected to it… the energy that can be used to create it ….the fabulous energy of possibilities… that’s all you have to do. Just breathe but while you are breathing don’t even try and think of what the future will be. At this point none of us even know or can probably even imagine. So don’t make the mistake of limiting the energy you draw into your system by trying to figure it all out.

Just for a moment, imagine your bright new future is a parcel from Amazon and then imagine deciding not to order it because you couldn’t figure out how Amazon was going to get the parcel to you. The delivery (or manifestation of this astonishing new life) is not your job. Your job is to put in the order and leave the rest alone.

And, in this case… the order is just allowing yourself to pull in potential energy… energy that can be used to birth a completely different reality… and, magically, like the sudden appearance of an Amazon parcel on your doorstep, at the right time every will all just fall into place.

So, this is what you do… or if you can come up with a different way that resonates with you, just go for it! It is your intention to empty yourself of the old and make way for the new that will get the job done. The details aren’t as important as your intention to do it in the best way for you.

  • Ground firmly.
  • Focus on breath and set a clear intention for your breathwork. On the in breath, breathe in the future and the potential it contains for building a new life and, on the out breath, release more of the past.
  • Let the past go and make sure you remember that the future does not have anything to do with the past. That is why it has to go. You cannot create something new if you are stuck in the old ways of thinking, feeling, behaving. You have to be open to the possibility of something completely and utterly new.
  • So as you continue to breathe, be aware of your past going out behind you and the future coming towards you, pulled towards you by your in breath.
  • See your past lifetimes flowing out behind you and your future lifetimes flowing towards you. Breathe in the future and breathe out the past.
  • Watch the flow of time and see yourself as the central point… the pivot point – the point where change is allowed to happen. And, make no mistake about that… you have to allow it to happen otherwise it won’t.
  • And, as you watch your past and future lives stretching out behind you and in front of you, allow yourself to become aware of something remarkable – you exist outside the boundaries of space and time. Your soul is eternal and you are unchanging. You are the centre of your reality. But things can still change around you… ahead of you… the future can be anything you want to make of it.
  • So, in that pause between each breath, in the moment between the in breath of the future and the out breath of the past allow yourself to see that anything is possible if you are open to receive what the universe has to offer you.
  • Allow yourself in that timeless moment to decide that you want to become more than you are right now, that you want a totally different future that is not limited by the experiences of your past. And keep breathing for as long as you need to so it happens.
  • Ground firmly and return your awareness to your surroundings.

This is only the template for what will be a whole new adventure, a whole new experience. It is up to you what you make of it… how often you do it… how much allow yourself to grow and change.

You can do it quickly or slowly … once or every day for the next year.

You can decide it’s a bit too much to do right now, but be open to doing it later… or you can even ignore the idea completely.

It’s your life and your decision.

So, sit for a moment and see what your decision is… growth or stagnation… fear or a really wild adventurous ride!

Bright Blessings!
