Lesson 325: The Heart of Love...

“The heart of love isn’t about loving a specific person. It’s about loving all specific people, as One. You begin to open your heart when you love one person: a romantic partner, a child. But when you open your heart further into love, there is room for more than one.”

— Sara Wiseman

Today we are to write a down list of every single person that you love and only stop when you truly cannot think of anyone else.

I personally don’t want to write this online, just because I don’t want to place my friends’ names online. I mean not that I would list their surnames but I know how some people are about privacy and because my name is readily available online, if they had someone bothering them, it could be traced. What I will do is make a mental note instead so that I give our my heart energy for those people. I mean, the whole point of the lesson is to see how much our hearts can love. There isn’t just room for one person but so many. I think this shows that if we can love everyone that touches our lives, why can’t we love each and every person on this world. If we are all One and connected through the Divine, we have the capability of loving everyone on this earth. So, why don’t we do it?

As I think about my loved ones, every time I think I’ve thought of everyone, someone else pops up and for different reasons. I think when I go to walk home, I’ll be thinking of more people along the way. I guess love can be infinite and we connect with much more people than we realise. I even thought of my singing teacher. I mean I don’t know him well but I love him for being able to teach me how to sing and that’s something I really appreciate.

Who are your loved ones?

Lesson 318: Those Who Seek the Dark...

“Those who seek the dark, do so to be in pain. They believe it is easier to stay there; but it is not. If you are in pain, if you are still moving from pain into compassion, take a look at this now.”

— Sara Wiseman

Today is to move some pain into light. That’s where we are all headed in the end right? We can ask ourselves to move pain into compassion right now. There is nothing stopping you from transitioning like this.

I sometimes forget about moving my issues from pain to compassion and then connection. I sometimes have reminders that pop up in my life through subtle angelic messages and synchronicity. I was wallowing in some dark emotions recently but I was reminded by some positive affirmations to think about all the good I have in my life. I watched a facebook video recently that I had seen a year or so before. This video had colour blind people receiving those special glasses to help them see in colour. A lot of these people started crying as they saw colour for the first time. It reminded me of all the things I take for granted. I had been looking at my life of all the things I didn’t have, when right there and then, I had the pleasure of seeing in colour. Something I don’t think about as being a gift and yet some people go every day without this simple pleasure.

I decided there and then to start a gratitude practise of just saying some thing out loud of what I am grateful for. I didn’t need to be in the pain of whatever I was going through – I just needed to change my thinking. I moved from pain to compassion. It’s something to keep up for sure. I am not perfect and don’t always remember these lessons, but I find, there is always something trying to remind me.

What did you overcome today?

Day 317 - A Year of Spiritual Awakening - When You Choose Higher Vibration...

Lesson 317: When You Choose Higher Vibration...

We can communicate with entities at any time whether they be departed friends, angels, guides or ascended masters. The divine is everywhere. We only create barriers through our own thought. When we choose to connect to higher vibrations, then we will always flow through to places of that high vibration. Today we are to consider a part of ourselves that seeks the dark. Can you ask yourself through the Divine if it’s needed or you are now done with it?

Something that seeks darkness is my emotions around my job redundancy situation. There is a part of me that wants to seek that depression and wallow in it. I don’t want to do anything but lay in bed and not do much. I know that this is not me. I know I need to push myself to get up and get shit done. No one else is going to do this for me. I was shown just yesterday that I need to be grateful for the things I have, rather than think about all the things I don’t have. So, my day has been rich with positive notions today. I looked at myself in the mirror and told myself all the things I am grateful for. I didn’t have that much of a list as I couldn’t think but it was a start. This is something I want to practise every morning before I go to work and just say a few things that I am proud of and also grateful for. I feel it really empowers me during the day. I don’t need that low emotions and vibrations of hearing this redundancy new anymore. I am going to move forward and take on any challenge that comes my way. No matter what happens, I will be directed to where I need to go. I know this always happens. I want to focus on all the things I take for granted and realise the abundance around me that supports me each and every day.

What dark and low vibration did you get rid of today?

Day 303 - A Year of Spiritual Awakening - When You Are in Heart of Connection...

Lesson 303: When You Are in Heart of Connection...

“When you are in the heart of connection, you have the ability to co-create with the Universe. The trouble is, what to ask for, what to manifest? In truth, you need ask for nothing. All that you require for soul growth is already provided.”

— Sara Wiseman

Today we are to consider not manifesting anything at all. Not placing any intention and attracting something specific in your life. Usually when you what to manifest something, you have a clear intention in your mind. What if you just let that notion go for a day. See what the day brings…

My day consisted of walking in the morning, getting ready for work, went to a few workshops in relation to how I can handle my redundancy, more work, worked on my CV, came home, ate dinner and then watching TV whilst blogging. I was pretty over the day. I just felt so exhausted trying to keep it together as I’m at work doing tasks that are essentially redundant. I usually ask for good things to happen but nothing specific. I haven’t asked for something specific in a while – not even a new job. I guess what I did learn was that I haven’t checked in on a few friends. So, I did that when I got home. What unfolded was a reminder that I should get past my negativity or what others have done to me recently. My friend told me not to hold onto it. It is from that situation, in which I can learn from. I made mistakes in that situation and I can learn from it. I thought this was a gift. She was right. Plain and simple. I need to work through the emotions and really just let this go back out into the Universe. Holding onto anger does nothing. With this particular situation, if I don’t think about it, it’s fine. When I am thinking about it, I get so mad. There is no need for this as it’s wasted energy. It must bury itself in my subconscious, wanting to come out. And, with what’s happening at work with my redundancy, my negativity and anxiety is a bit shot to the roof. Speaking to this friend today reminded me that I have the chance to change the narrative. And, I will!

What happened in your life today which was unexpected?

Day 298 - A Year of Spiritual Awakening - We Often See Our Angels...

Lesson 298: We Often See Our Angels...

…and guides from a young age. As we grow up, we may forget about them or they are not easy to connect with as we lose our levels of consciousness. Today we are to close our eyes and ask the Divine to reveal the presence of guides, entities, angels or spirits to us. We are not meant to see in this exercise but just to sense a presence. Notice if you feel a sense of familiarity with this entity.

I connect with spirits quite often. Sometimes when I want to, sometimes when I don’t want to. At present, I feel a male presence lingering on my left side. He reminds me of a Greek man, possibly an angel. He could be roman and a warrior of some kind. I just sense he’s wearing loin cloth and has curly hair. I am not going to ask what he wants. I feel like he adores me.

It’s odd because last night I felt a presence hugging me with their arm around me once again. I don’t fear the feeling because it seems like such a loving presence, so I just acknowledged that presence and allowed them to continue hugging me. That sounds so odd to just treat it as if it were normal, but it really does happen to me. I can understand why people may get freaked out by it, because it’s as if another human is hugging me as I lay in bed as there is no physical body, but I am getting used to it. Maybe it’s just what I need at the time. I need the comfort which is much appreciated, and because I don’t have a partner, some higher power is sending me love. I never ask and I just accept whatever it is. I’ve really grown in this acceptance and sometimes I shock myself with how comfortable I am in it these days. I’m very much a completely different person to whom I was 1-2 years ago. It’s funny how it all pans out hey!

Anyway, how did you go with the exercise? Feel any presence that you hadn’t felt before?
