You are both a body-mind and Awareness itself. The two operate together but are often sensed through different lenses. Are you nervous? This is the nervous system. Is there a part of you that is aware of being nervous, yet simply says, “Isn’t that interesting?” This is Awareness. When you [...]

There is no end to the learning. You learn from your mistakes. You learn from teachers. You learn from pain. You learn from pleasure. Experience is your teacher. And what is learning? Comparing what you are experiencing now with what you have experienced in the past and deciding if the [...]

You are playing Blind Man’s Bluff. Do you not recall how in this game one willingly puts on a blindfold and allows themselves to be led around? This is what you as Source in expression decided to do to have the human experience. You willingly chose to become blinded, if [...]

You are given precisely what you need as you need it. Do you yet realize this? As you trust the truth in this phrase and place more awareness on how life unfolds for you and as you, you will see more of the connections . . . the web. How [...]

Yes, time flies when you look back at a moment and count how many years have passed. You experience surprise, for some eras and experiences are so deeply embedded in awareness that “it seems like only yesterday.” And what of those who you love who have passed? Are they ageing? [...]

Are you ready to try something new? Do you feel a shiver of excitement rise up from within with the very thought of this? From where does this excitement come? What is this “within”? There is a well of potential that seems to be inside of you but is [...]

Making excuses. Have you found yourself doing so? Of course, for the human does not always agree with what is before it. The soul flows. The soul adapts by making choices that serve the highest good. This is not meant to make one feel guilty. It is given as a [...]

And so, perhaps you go overboard. And you berate yourself for being human. And what do you do next? Perhaps you go overboard in the other direction to make up for your perceived transgressions. And why does this happen? Imbalance, dear one. The pendulum continues to swing a bit too [...]

Do you see the perfection in what is manifesting about you? If not, your human filters are blinding you. Of course, human ideas of perfection are a bit different from those of the soul. The soul, without filters, can see the web of connections and how each strand fits together. [...]

As you awaken to the Truth of your essence—that you are what you are seeking—you may wonder then, “If I am Awareness itself, why do I not have instant access to all facts, all awareness?” And we remind you of your dual nature as both human and soul. You as [...]

Are you ready to go to the next level in your journey? You know you are. What gives you this knowing? The soul that you are is shining through the layers of human story that have occluded this soul-awareness until now. You have been doing the “work” of excavation. Why? [...]

Do you rush to complete a task or do you focus upon why you are doing it? If you do a thing simply because it has been asked of you and there is no mindfulness, we dare say there will also be little to no pleasure. Imbue your work with [...]

“Are we having fun yet?” This is a phrase often said with wry humor when life becomes more challenging than usual. It is a way of acknowledging with irony that you are going through a rough patch and things could be better. And you are correct. Life may not always [...]

How do you differentiate knowing from doubting? With knowing, there are no words. With doubting, thoughts run around in the head like a hamster on a wheel. With knowing, one must provide words after the fact. And yes, it is facts that one knows when one merges so completely with [...]

When you are in a group that is buoyant, do you feel uplifted as well? When you are in a toxic environment, do you experience the toxicity? These questions should prove meaningful to you. Some are more sensitive than others. Be aware of how others’ energy affects you. Without blame, [...]

Yes, you carve out time for stillness in the morning. But what of the rest of the day? And most especially, what about those times when you are weary from so much activity that it is far easier to forget you are a soul playing a role? Why, then this [...]

Peanut butter and jelly. What a strange combination of textures, flavors, and visuals. And yet, together they produce a most pleasant sensory experience. You can change whether the butter is smooth or crunchy and what fruity flavor infuses the jelly. Yes, LIFE is about choices and trying new combinations. By [...]

And so, you have turned a page, opening a new calendar to mark the progress of time. And what of the world beyond time? Do you know it? Have you spent time examining it? Experiencing it? This timeless state is far closer to your true essence than the role you [...]

Blessings. What are these? They come in limitless forms. Blessings are gifts that seem to come from a higher place bestowed upon you for no reason other than you are worthy. And oh yes, dear one, you are worthy of blessings. You are worthy of health, happiness, and love. If [...]

Nature is your greatest teacher if the subject is who and what you are. Look at the shapes that make up all of creation. Have you noticed how a sheep's horns unfurl in a spiral, the symbol of the soul’s growth? Have you pondered a tree’s roots and branches, the [...]

Fear is an opportunity to practice peace. Anger is an opportunity to practice peace. And do you know what is also an opportunity to practice peace? Yes, happiness. Peace is not an opposite of any attribute at its deepest essence. It is the essence of your true nature, beautiful soul, [...]

All that you behold in what you call physical form consists of the same consciousness as your thoughts. Nothing is really solid, you know. It is all relative. To those in the spirit world, your walls are permeable. And those in the spirit world are permeable to you! How can [...]

Messages from across the veil come when you are ready to receive them. How clear is your intention? What is your motive? Is it self-serving to hear from one who has passed? Of course, for you shared love and connection and you wish to continue acknowledging the bonds. And is [...]

Be aware of the words you say or think after stating, “I am.” Whilst these may represent a temporary truth to you, by making them into an affirmation beginning with these two powerful words, you give them strength. Are you angry, or is there anger passing through awareness? Are you [...]

On this day in which much of the world celebrates the birth of a teacher who changed your world, what do you have yet to learn? Do you fully embody the blessings of loving kindness? Do you love your neighbor as yourself at all times? Do you do unto others [...]

In the midst of all the rushing around, pause. Why are you doing what you are doing? Is it obligation or will it somehow bring greater joy and connection? Perhaps it is a bit of both, but do examine your motives. Now find the gratitude. Come back to your center [...]

Are you feeling a bit low now that the traditional activities you enjoy this time of year are occurring without one you love? Traditions take you to times that you have enjoyed in the past. These are patterns that remain in awareness forever. Instead of longing for them with an [...]

Take time for yourself. Yes, we speak of service to others, but balance is all-important. Balance rest with activity, receiving with giving, being with doing. It is easy for the human to get caught up in the external world at the expense of the inner world. Are you setting aside [...]

“Why did you do that?” you may have been asked when you gave away something precious or enacted a kind and selfless deed, and the answer, which may have come with a shrug of the shoulders reveals your deeper essence. You, beautiful soul, were simply being true to the Self. [...]

When you think you have nothing in common with another, look deeper. Yes, your stories may differ . . . the experiences, the locations, the characters may differ, but beneath the differences (yes, you see the root in this word), your roots are the same: the Light of Spirit. And [...]
