As we move into the end of the year, it can be a wonderful time to pause and reflect. Whenever I think about that, it immediately drops me into gratitude.
So, for the next few weeks, I thought it’d be fun to do a deep dive into gratitude.
Hope you had a love-filled Valentine’s Day even if you were on your own! Remember, Love is always here… because you are here.
So how can you deepen into that ever-abiding love?
One way is to understand how your ego takes you away from experiencing that love which is your true and essential nature.
This is why I wanted to devote the next few weeks to exploring the ways we can consciously and unconsciously get taken out. Specifically, by diving into the seven (I call them veils) of the ego, that Meggan Watterson outlines in her book, Mary Magdalene Revealed.
Lately I’ve been doing some reflecting. It naturally occurred as a follow up from all the visioning we’ve been doing lately.
The inventory I’ve been conducting is about examining my decisions more closely and looking at my underlying motivations.
In other words, did I make a significant decision because I was adhering to a set of unconscious rules passed down from family or society? Or because it was truly something I felt called to do for my own self growth? Take a moment to look back at your life and ask yourself the same questions.
It turns out we make loads of decisions based on things like: pleasing others, fulfilling expectations, because it’s the "right" thing to do, or it’s what we’re “supposed” to do.
Happy New Year!
Feeling ready for 2026?
It’s still pretty new which is why I like to incorporate some anchoring practices as a way to create clarity going forward as well as to feel more grounded into the year.
So, for the next few weeks, as I do EVERY year 😉 I’ll post my personal faves. Things I do each year to set me up for the BEST possible year. These practices will assist you to get clear and dream into your future, so you can move with confidence and ease into the days and months ahead.
As we move into the holiday season and a time of gift giving, it’s also the ideal time to explore what it means to receive and how to do this with more intentionality.
With that in mind, I’m going to dive deeply into the concept of receiving and how- especially for those of us (givers) for whom that is difficult- we can allow ourselves to experience even more of it!
If you’re wondering why this is important, let me clarify.
In truth, receiving IS the entire game. What I mean is that God/the universe/universal mind/conscious awareness- or however you think about higher self/spirit is ALWAYS trying to give us more love, goodness, support and help.
I don’t need to tell you that the world situation is, to quote Tom Robbins, “desperate as usual.”
In truth, it feels even worse than usual as systems and structures collapse all around us.
Not to be morbid…but the rate of change is too fast! None of us can keep up, not with technology, with AI, with the news cycle, none of it.
Our nervous systems are simply unequipped to manage this level of change/ chaos/however you define it.
Part of why the rate of change continues to increase, is because we’re in what mystics are calling a “celestial speedup.”
