A door is stuck, and so you push.  You exert greater and greater force until it pops loose, and you almost fall forward.  Why the force?  This is what you have been taught to do:  push harder.  And it works with physical things, but does it work when interacting with [...]

How often do you forget who you are?  We are not speaking of amnesia in which you forget your human name, but a lack of awareness that you are Awareness itself?  to the uninitiated, it may seem inconsequential to be Awareness.  To the awakened, it is a source of great [...]

Those across the veil see you. They are aware of your thoughts and actions. This ability is available to them for they no longer have the dense physical body or the rules of physical reality to live by. It is quite freeing to know they are no longer bound by [...]

Trust the process.  And what process is that?  Listen, act, flow.  Listen, act, flow.  Where there is no flow, this means it’s a no-go.  Trust this.  Ask for signs to know if you are on the right track, and if the sign does not come, trust the process.  Humans balk.  [...]

Uplifting others.  How often do you do so?  It is a gift you can give freely—a kind of service.  It takes very little effort, time, or cost.  A word of encouragement, a smile, a listening ear that says, “You matter.”  And the most wondrous result:  in uplifting others, you are [...]

If consciousness is so malleable—and it is—then would it not benefit all if you moved yours around a bit?  Instead of replying and relying on the singular point of view from within your own field of awareness, why not try on another’s?  Do so when answering questions.  Do so when [...]

How often do humans judge others for the very things you do yourself?  It is ego’s way of deflecting blame and game.  This is seen most often in those you live with.  You don’t believe us?  The next time you cast aspersions on one you love, think carefully about the [...]

An enemy today may be a friend tomorrow.  Do you not see this now with countries formerly at war?   Now you vacation and live among those who formerly disagreed.  It all comes down to beliefs.  And if beliefs are that malleable, why do you give them such credence? There is [...]

You want to know when something will happen, when something will end or when another thing will begin.  Why this desire to know the future?  You want to be able to plan.  You are not satisfied now.  “Hurry up!  Let’s get to the future instead of being present.”  This is [...]

What you give out comes back to you.  Yes, like a boomerang.  It may wobble a bit in flight and land not back in your hand at first.  At times you have to move forward and pick up the boomerang as the result of a throw gone awry.  That is [...]

Do you think something is challenging?  Then it will be for you.  Do you think something is easy?  Then so it is.  Your thoughts are more powerful than you may be aware.  Are you aware of the thoughts that are running your life now?  Without awareness, you may be limiting [...]

What you read is as important as what you watch on your televisions.  Of course it is fine to enjoy good fiction.  This arises from the realm of the mind, but if your goal is to align with the highest vibration, throw some high vibration reading into your day.  Messages [...]

Distractions abound.  Watch a puppy, moving from one distraction to the next.  Wherever the attention goes, goes the nose.  Humans are also easily distracted.  What happens when you shift your attention from what is outside to what is inside?  Why, there you find a whispering, a rustling, a knowing quite [...]

Lyrics in a song.  They speak to you exactly when you need them.  How does that work?  You are Consciousness in expression.  Your very nature snags you.  Those thoughts in your head?  Are they only yours or of a higher awareness?  This Awareness sends a thought:  “Pay attention to what [...]

Sand dollars.  Why are they called such?  They do not look like a dollar bill.  They may look a bit like a silver dollar, but not really.  They are not worth a dollar.  This is what you have all agreed to call them.  You give a thing a label and [...]

Do not argue with reality.  Do you know what happens when you argue with anything or anyone?  You resist.  You insist, “I am right.  Things must go my way!”  And if they do not, then what happens?  You suffer.  There is no need to suffer.  The soul is not suffering.  [...]

What does it mean to surrender?  Do you give it meaning, as in, “Surrendering shows weakness.”?  What if you knew that by surrendering all meaning, you are allowing in a Force that is all-powerful to guide you, lead you, show you the way?  What if in giving things no meaning, [...]

Running away is not the answer.  Waiting for things to pass is not, either.  So, what is?  Running toward your thoughts.  Look at them closely.  They are telling you that things shouldn’t be the way they are.  And what is really happening?  Things are the way they are.  You are [...]

Picture an apple on the head of one across the room from you.  You pull back your bow and shoot an arrow at the apple.  A direct hit.  The one with the apple atop his head is quite brave, quite confident in your abilities, as are you.  If you falter, [...]

How often do you stop to test your motive?  It is a very good pause to take.  Do you do a thing for your own benefit or do it for heaven’s sake?  When your motive comes from an open heart, this shifts your inner space.  When you work and play [...]

Signs are all around you that all is well.  Where are you choosing to look?  Are you focused on the small patch of weeds or the incredible array of wildflowers that spring quite naturally season after season?  Are you focused on a dark cloud or the bright, blue sky beyond [...]

It is part of the human makeup to look out for oneself.  Self-preservation is built in.  But so is compassion.  So is caring. Your very essence, your true nature is awareness, so use that awareness to notice when you want another to do something for their own good or for [...]
