You Are The Bridge That Leads Out Of Darkness

Your reality has reached a major pivotal point. This is the change you have asked for. There are no directions on how to navigate these new times, but they will be created in each moment by following your heart center. A new dimension/reality/Earth template is landing now. We don’t have words for this and neither do you; but we see that you can feel the reverberation, or the ripples, from this new energy. You are stretching and reaching for it now. It is not quite close enough, and it is not time to make the leap. There is still some polarized baggage to clean up.

Duality is cancelling itself out through the use of exaggerated extremes created between the forward thinking and the past dependent ones within humanity. Obsolete programming is being dissolved as it fights its last battles. Humanity’s consciousness is continuing to go through a huge awakening by the way of a collective dark night of the soul. Radical emotions and reactions in humanity are symptoms of this. The collective consciousness is being flushed out and prepared for the future. The polarities will now begin to dissolve because they are contaminated in every direction and on all fronts. These things do not belong in the new Earth Nuclei. From this point forward, when you look back, you will wonder how you achieved this transformation.

A Finely Tuned Dance

You are on the master’s path. This is a very fine tuned dance … to not take sides, or take up arms and go to battle for any extreme position. The way through this is to keep your balance, stay in your center and out of the non-permanent distraction of chaos that is a around you. Keep flowing through your center. You can maintain your balance by adopting an attitude of flexibility and radical acceptance of the process that is in front of you at any given moment. Remain in your heart without judgments. Be very patient, and stay in your grounded body. If you become polarized, you could collect impurities that you will have to clear and heal later and with more challenges. To stay clear and land fully into the new Earth template totally prepared, you must maintain yourself in a neutral center until the balance returns. And it will. This time of confusion and challenge is not forever.

You will know when you begin to anchor within your center and the higher frequencies. You will begin to feel uncomfortable taking up any “side” or “battle”. Your biases will be very few, because you have already begun to anchor yourself in the new Earth template and its new frequencies, that are balanced and non-polarized. The places you judge are the places, dimensions and levels of consciousness that you will become stuck in until you learn to go beyond it. Let the old fall away when it is too dense to be useful anymore. Be compassionate and let others, who seam to be lost, catch up to the new program. This all takes time, and they will come to the truth in waves. All the upcoming events that transpire are all in divine order. There is nothing to worry about. Just take comfort in knowing that what is out of balance with the new frequencies absolutely CANNOT come forward into the future. You can have confidence in this fact.

Where you place your energy is where you are. Not taking action is an action in itself. Be in the still center place, and do not get drawn into the drama that is playing out now. There is power in doing nothing and letting the universe self balance. You will be a bridge for humanity.

You are moving beyond the separation of time. You will find it easier to be present in the moment, but it will be a natural part of the process to go through levels of grief and regret of the past, fear and worry of the future, and self doubt and questioning. Do not escape these feelings, but go through them, learn, and come back to the present and your center. Tomorrow will be a great mystery that we will navigate together.

As you have discovered, it is pointless to expect to find truth out there — no matter what the source. You must find and live from your own inner source and center, so as not to attract an event created by an unbalance (karma). If any situation triggers you, re-examine the origin of your belief system surrounding it. You are NOT your beliefs. Beliefs are not truth, and they always change with the times. But your essence never changes for it is eternal. You ARE the mirror, but you are not the reflection it sends out.

All of creation is being cleared to create a new vessel for the new Earth nuclei and the larger Earth template. We say again … surf in the center … live in the eye of the storm. Act from unity or tribe consciousness, and make your choices based on the collective well-being, and not just your individual self. When you live from this new balance, within all that is, you support and create a path for all to follow. You are the bridges that lead out of the dark night. You are the new visionaries and the way-showers.

Side note …
We are crossing directly over the same energy, or point in time, where deep collective wounds were caused by the fall of Atlantis. Much of the polarization, over reaction and deep resistance is coming not from the present, but from the deep wounds of the past. This is being triggered to be faced and healed, because these wounds cannot go further into the future. So again … Be kind. Know that people are going through much more than you can possibly realize.

How To Outsmart Your COVID-19 Fears And Boost Your Mood In 2021

After a year of toxic stress ignited by so much fear and uncertainty, now is a good time to reset, pay attention to your mental health and develop some healthy ways to manage the pressures going forward.

Brain science has led to some drug-free techniques that you can put to use right now.

I am health psychologist who developed a method that harnesses our rip-roaring emotions to rapidly switch off stress and activate positive emotions instead. This technique from emotional brain training is not perfect for everyone, but it can help many people break free of stress when they get stuck on negative thoughts.

Why The Stress Response Is So Hard To Turn Off 

Three key things make it hard to turn off stress-activated negative emotions:

  • First, our genes make us worrywarts. Our hunter-gatherer ancestors survived by assuming every rustle in the grasses was a lurking hungry lion, not harmless birds hunting for seeds. We’re essentially programmed to be hyperaware of threats, and our brains rapidly launch stress chemicals and negative emotions in response.
  • Second, the chemical cascade of stress hormones in the brain associated with negative emotions impairs cognitive flexibility, goal-directed behavior and self-control.
  • Third, our tendency to avoid dealing with negative emotions puts people in a perpetual cycle of ignoring unpleasant feelings, which amplifies stress and the risk of emotional health problems.

 

Traditional approaches for coping with stress were based on cognitive-behavioral therapy, which focuses on modifying patterns of thinking and behavior. It was developed before our modern understanding of stress overload.

Researchers at New York University discovered a paradox: Although cognitive methods were effective in low-stress situations, they were less effective when dealing with the high stress of modern life.

Emotional brain training works with these high-stress emotions in an effort to tame them, releasing negative emotions as the first of two steps in preventing stress overload.

Step 1: Release Negative Emotions

The only negative emotion in the brain that supports taking action rather than avoidance and passivity is anger.

Studies have shown that the suppression of anger is associated with depression and that suppressing anger doesn’t reduce the emotion. Healthy release of anger instead has been found to reduce other stress-related health risks.

Our technique is to switch off stress overload by using a controlled burst of anger to help the brain exert better emotional control and allow emotions to flow rather than become chronic and toxic. After that first short burst, other feelings can flow, starting with sadness to grieve the loss of safety, then fear and regret, or what we would do differently next time.

You can talk yourself through the stages. To experiment with the process, use these simple phrases to express the negative feelings and release your stress: “I feel angry that …”; “I feel sad that …”; “I feel afraid that …”; and “I feel guilty that …”

Step 2. Express Positive Emotions 

After releasing negative emotions, positive emotions can naturally arise. Express these feelings using the same approach: “I feel grateful that …”; “I feel happy that …”; “I feel secure that …”; and “I feel proud that …”

Your mindset can quickly change, a phenomenon that has many potential explanations. One explanation is that in positive states, your brain’s neural circuits that store memories from when you were in the same positive state in the past can be spontaneously activated. Another is that the switch from negative to positive emotions quiets your sympathetic nervous system – which triggers the fight-or-flight response – and activates the parasympathetic system, which acts more like a brake on strong emotions.

Here’s what the whole stress relief process might look like for me right now:

  • I feel angry that we’re all isolated and I can’t see my new grandson Henry.
  • I hate it that everything is so messed up! I HATE THAT!!!
  • I feel sad that I am alone right now.
  • I feel afraid that this will never end.
  • I feel guilty that I am complaining! I am lucky to be alive and have shelter and love in my life.
  • Then the positive:
  • I feel grateful that my daughter-in-law sends me photos of Henry.
  • I feel happy that my husband and I laughed together this morning.
  • I feel secure that this will eventually pass.
  • I feel proud that I am doing the best I can to cope.

After a daunting year, and with more challenges ahead in 2021, upgrading your approach to emotions can be a drug-free mood booster. Our COVID-19 fears need not consume us. We can outsmart the brain’s fear response and find moments that sparkle with promise.

Calling in higher levels of discernment…

At the start of this year, Maryam shared her energy forecast for 2021. This channeled forecast mentioned not explaining your divine self, equal energy exchange, landing on your feet, owning the room, and forgiveness, but what came in strong from Spirit was this concept of HIGHER LEVELS OF DISCERNMENT.

As we become more spiritually sensitive and continue to raise our consciousness to attune to these higher levels of extrasensory perception, that which we perceive as “the world” becomes radically different from once we believed it to be. As we begin calling in higher levels of discernment, tune in and ask yourself “how much of what I am feeling actually belongs to me?” It is this self-awareness and connection to other planes of consciousness that we find our intuition and discernment soar.

We have to develop the discernment to be able to decide what is right for us. This requires us to be willing to learn and interpret the ways our higher self and the universe communicates by guiding us through feelings, sensations, and intuitive nudges. While the collective will be experiencing an increase in higher levels of discernment throughout this year, you can still pray for spiritual discernment in the meantime. “Please give me more discerning eyes to see and more discerning ears to hear what is and what is not in alignment for my path.”

You know that your true consciousness is the entire cosmos, so are you creating from the vastness of who you truly are? Or are you manifesting from identification as the tiny aspect of your consciousness that inhabits this finite body. This year is calling us to rise and stand in our sovereignty, to be willing and confident to ask for support from higher realms.

If ever there was a time to practice not enmeshing and not bringing other people’s energy into your own field, it’s now. The greatest gift you can give yourself is to do the inner work to simply be in integrity with yourself, not for the approval of others. We explore how we can call in and embody higher levels of discernment through courses within New Earth Mystery School and we provide tools for energetic protection and energetic embodiment in our Energy is Currency course.

It’s not over till it’s over!

 

For a long time, I have been sharing a vision I had many years ago. What was said to me was, “We are going into a period of great chaos. Many people will leave the planet. People are being prepared to be lights in the midst of the chaos.”

I knew, way back in 1975, that getting ready for the chaos was the path I had to take. I had no idea what that meant or when “the chaos” would arrive.

So I learned to stay in the moment and wait for the inner urge to do whatever I was called upon to do. This meant learning to listen on a deep inner level and to trust whatever guidance I was receiving.

In August 1976, I gave away everything I owned and went on a lengthy journey that I described in my book The Search for Connection: A Spiritual Journey to Physical, Emotional, and Financial Health.

In the process, I learned to let go of fear and to understand that there are forces at work that are beyond my comprehension.

Over the years, I could see the division in our country taking shape. I learned how to watch the news with a level of detachment, knowing that when the chaos came I would need to be able to watch the drama and not get emotionally involved with it.

It’s been a long time coming, but we are stepping into the core of the chaos. I believe that it’s going to get a lot worse before it gets better. It’s hard to maintain order when people feel powerless and suppressed.

We also have to do deal with the rapidly spreading coronavirus, climate change, economic inequality, racial injustice, and other planetary problems. The United States appears to be the epicenter of disruption.

There is no good or bad – only what is

It seems remarkable to me that people living in the same country can perceive what’s going on from such different perspectives. Because I have tried to watch the drama with detachment, it’s amazing that there is such a diversity of opinions about our shared experiences.

I try not to judge. Instead, I ask what kind of hurt people must have experienced early in their lives in order to want to rebel and express such anger. Is it really possible to love thy neighbor when one feels treated unfairly by those who are in positions of authority?

What we are living through is chaotic, destructive, confusing, and sometimes frightening. We are going through a period of cataclysmic change that requires that we examine what has happened from as detached a point of view as possible.

There is no easy fix for what has happened in our divided society. The chaos is not going to miraculously disappear as we join together and walk into a kumbaya moment of togetherness.

We are going to be dealing with chaos and confusion for what will seem like a long time. It is difficult for our leaders to understand the hunger, economic uncertainty, fear, and anger that ordinary people are experiencing.

This cataclysmic moment requires that we understand the hurt and pain that people are expressing in many different ways.

We are living in a time of great unknown. Our brains are wired to fear the unknown. The solution, for me, is to stay focused in the moment and have hope for the future.

I would love to know how you are dealing with the chaos. Or are you just ignoring it? Email me at [email protected] and share your thoughts.

5 Tips To Look After Our Mental Well-Being In Hard Times

During these difficult times it is very important to look after our mental and physical well-being, starting by paying attention to our negative emotions and thoughts.

One of the first things people experience during hard times is anxiety and insecurity, due to feelings of uncertainty.

In Italy, where the virus struck with fury, 80% of the population needed help to cope with the situation, according to surveys done by CNOP (Consiglio Nazionale Ordini Psicologi). According to the ONS (Office for National Statistics) in the UK, almost 50% of the population had reported an increase in their levels of anxiety, and in the USA a survey done by the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health found an increase in psychological distress from 3.7% in 2018 to 24% in 2020 — and the list goes on.

The point here is to improve our coping mechanisms and be prepared to face whatever is coming toward us.

I will give you a few tips to boost mental wellbeing and have some tools to go to when needed.

Tip One:

Acknowledge a negative emotion you might be having, replace it with the opposite emotion: for example, if you are feeling unrest, replace it by calmness by recalling a time where you experienced this positive emotion. Stay there as much as you can, feeling calmness in every cell of your body until the negative emotion is gone. This short exercise requires a bit of effort, but we are powerful creators and we can do what we want when we have the will to make a change.

Tip Two:

Keep a journal. Writing has several mental health benefits, because it helps us to reflect on our emotions and actions, and in doing so we are able to find solutions and act accordingly.

Tip Three:

List 10 positive feelings and create 2 mantras with them, then repeat those mantras several times a day. Mantras (words or sounds to help concentrate one’s focus) calm the mind and, through the power of repetition, enable us to change our thoughts.

Tip Four:

Ask for help if you feel you cannot cope alone with your current situation. Often in our society asking for help is seen as a weakness, and this way of thinking has been very detrimental to our well-being. Family and friends can do a lot for us if we know how to approach to them, and mental health services are there to serve you.

Tip Five:

Control your attention. Our attention is like a laser, difficult to direct, however by being aware of where your attention is going, you can redirect it to other things. We are creators, so put your abilities and knowledge to work: write, paint, dance, watch movies, read a novel, chat with friends, create something uplifting.

Bonus Tip:

Do all these activities from the heart, with purpose. Our heart is the place where the energy of love resides.

A new us … A new reality … A new world

 

There are two completely different realities spinning side by side at the moment. In one there is a global pandemic, restriction of movement, people dying, economies threatened, and a global climate crisis right alongside it all.

In the other there is a growing sense of communion with the world around us, a love of life and the natural world, an ability to create magic and yes, even miracles, in association with others who share this reality.

Reimagining the Collective

In this new version of us we are a collective species, interwoven with all other brilliant and beautiful life forms. As one goes, so goes the whole. We absorb knowledge, ideas and genius innovation from the ethers that surround us and discover previously hidden masteries that in fact were always within us. We laugh together across the airwaves of the world.

When any are in distress, the collective bursts into alchemical stirring to weave its wonders upon their reality and watch the miraculous unfurl itself into their lives. We live by passion and purpose and creation. We are reality magicians, inspired by wonder of the world around us, led by an infinite compass that guides our every action in the right directions.

In truth I believe we are the beginnings of a new species that is woven with all the best of all current species. Our brains are being reactivated, our bodies rejuvenated and our intelligence embraced by an infinite source of understanding beyond the current ken.

I believe that this extraordinary and unusual past year of 2020 has led us here, and perhaps what we perceive as COVID is actually an alchemical transformation in disguise. That we are now flowing into a time like no other before it on a world that I perceive is becoming more glorious by the day. I believe we shall all, every species, every life form, find ourselves in this new reality from here on in.

And that is perhaps the most delightfully exciting New Year’s present a being could ever have.

Your energy is currency…

Understand how you are spending it and what you are spending it on. This is a key practice during this season of closure, reflection and renewal. You give your power to certain energies both by focusing on them, or  trying to ignore them. Both are a form of energy currency. The answer is awareness. Be aware, and set your intentions.

Care more about cultivating and conserving your energetic currency so that it is available to be spent on creating and transforming your life, rather than on defending your reality. We have to train ourselves to vibrate in our own home frequency. This is the basis of mastering our own energy field and learning to focus and direct our energy currency.

Master your energy field, and experience the fullness of your own essence. We can do this by practicing energetic boundaries and managing our frequency through auric cleansing practices and embodiment. Another important component of attuning to our home frequency is emotional alchemy and healthy energy exchange. For highly sensitive people, it is important feel our feelings and clear trapped energy from the emotional body.

Everything we do involves an exchange of energy. It’s possible to be in a healthy exchange with someone through the practice of mindfulness, clear communication and healthy boundaries. Much of this work is about the consistent practice of releasing that which doesn’t serve, while reconnecting to the expansiveness of your true inner self. These practices and more will be taught in our upcoming course, Energy is Currency.

No One Can Hold Back the Dawn, Not Even on this Winter Solstice

I’ve had mixed feelings about Winter Solstice.

It’s cold and dark and my body is not a fan of either. I’m usually running around, trying to get all of the things done before traveling to see family.

And it’s also the time of year when I’d be getting ready for the annual Yule ritual with Starhawk. Sometimes I’d have a role, sometimes not. But the spiral dance is the moment when I’d remember not everything is dark and cold.

I would look into so many shining eyes and remember that light is returning in the northern hemisphere.

But this year is different.

Light is Returning on Winter Solstice 

A lot of my work in 2020 has focused on cycles. Cycles of beginning and ending, and sometimes just the work of turning around and around without stopping. And there’s also been sharp stops in the middle of a cycle. Feeling dizzy after so much movement and then none.

Emotional vertigo is real. Spiritual syncope. Loneliness in moments I never thought to prepare for: a real worry that the parts of life I love might not return for a long time.

The song we would often sing during the Winter Solstice spiral arrives in my mind. And it cycles over and over again. Sometimes the whole song, sometimes only part.

 

LIGHT IS RETURNING

© Charlie Murphy

 

Light is returning,

Even though this is the darkest hour:

No one can hold back the dawn.

 

Let’s keep it burning,

Let’s keep the light of hope alive:

Make safe our journey through the storm.

 

One planet is turning,

Circles on her path around the sun:

Earth Mother is calling her children home.

 

My body remembers hands and singing until my throat was so dry it cracked again and again. And I would laugh and someone else would laugh. And the song of hope would burn in my veins.

 

Even Though This is the Darkest Hour

In such a hard year on so many levels, I can feel the dawn coming. It’s sitting on the horizon with promises of something better. Something safer. I can taste it on these dry, thirsty lips.

What is coming will not be perfect. I have already seen the cracks. I have already felt the hesitation to get TOO hopeful. But I bend in that direction anyway. I bend toward the possibility that the dawn will return.

And with it will come the promise of never taking anything for granted again.

I have learned that again and again. I have learned that I assumed I would always have what I had. That I would know consistency and safety. That I would be able to handle everything because I had faced it before.

I never imagined this. I never prepared.

But as the year closes, I know I can face anything. Even in the hours when I thought I could not handle it (and did not want to handle it), I did. The cycle continued. The dawn came.

I kept going.

This Winter Solstice is more visceral. It is not an idea of coming light, but a push into whatever happens next. The colors in the skies may be beautiful, and still I don’t know what they will brighten into clear view.

But the dawn is coming. It is already on its way.

And my hope burns from within, it relies on no one else and nothing else, not even the change of the calendar.

It was always here, the deep glow, the internal resolve.

The match that moves swiftly across the rough year.

And lights the way home.

2020 ~ 2021

 

2020 in review

What a time for the world this year. Right from the start of this global pandemic I said, ‘So much good is going to come from this. This is the year the world turns.’ I have not been disappointed.

I don’t need to recap here the environmental impacts, innovational breakthroughs, the sense of globality and the bursting forth of Nature that’s happened this year. But also what’s exciting to me is how the new is showing up so brilliantly in us now.

Many of us now are living fully embodied in a new reality that can only be described as magical, transcendent and joyfully radiant. We are vast and present at the same time, totally in love with life on planet Earth. We have become what I like to call quantum ALLchemists, working as the ALL for all life everywhere. Being a collective being is second nature to me now. And I can see global unity right in front of our noses now. Standing here now, mid December 2020, there is an unexplainable excitement about what the last few weeks of 2020 and then 2021 will bring.

 

 

2021 … The year of realised dreams 

I’ve always said it’s difficult to predict the future, first because we are awesome creators and we can make it anything we want. But also because it has always seemed to me like multiple timelines and pathways were on offer, so a choice here and there could put you on a completely new path. However in the past four months, I’ve been playing with future looking and while it’s still not 100% predictable, I find now that there seems to be an overarching pathway that soars above the rest, offering us a brand new reality in which the world can live. So here goes with my annual look at our year ahead … 2021.

ABUNDANCE … Despite all the logical pandemic effect predictions, I sense that 2021 will shower the world with abundance … not just for the select few, but for all people and life forms around this planet. It’s a natural kind of abundance that springs from a relationship with the Earth and Nature. An innovative and entrepreneurial abundance that allows everyone to actualise their dreams and do what they love.

NATURE … This past year, where we live, we saw Nature burst forth like never before. Super GREEN, mega growth, luscious organic foods oozing with juiciness and of course the cross species animal love captured by cameras everywhere. In 2021 Nature is going to burst free even more throughout the world as the miraculous magical core of LIFE is opened up for all to become what we’ve never been before and to see with eyes of wonder what we’ve never seen before inherent in all life.

PEOPLE POWER … There is already a move in motion from hierarchical business, finance and government models to empowerment of the people for collaborative decision-making. It may take another year or two to fulfill itself completely, but we will see this clearly emerge this coming year, supported by new technological innovations and loads more local, community and on line engagement.

GLOBAL UNITY … is high on the list this coming year, breaking through all the logical expectations of ‘how things are and have been’ in the world. This is already happening as we all move through a global pandemic together and see just how interwoven we are. But also If you’re like me, your daily contact is with friends from many countries, faiths and beliefs, seeing just how brilliantly we come together now via technology and telepathy.

HEALTH & WELL-BEING … is going to take a huge leap this coming year. First because 2020 experiences have forced a focus on that, but also because we are unleashing in ourselves a miraculous ability to source powerful shifts in our physicality. I’m already experiencing this in our collective power in zinging up others when they ask for assistance, but also experiencing a sense in myself of getting younger rather than older. In my 70teenth year, I am healthier, fitter and happier than I was ten and even twenty years ago. I see this same trend in my buddies around the world, too.

 

I predicted 2020 as the year the world would turn towards a new reality and had no idea that a tiny virus would come along to facilitate that turning. Now 2021 feels like a bursting forth of all that the new can offer us. A year in which the world becomes all that we have dreamed it could be. Fasten your seat belts, folks. This rocketship is taking off this coming year. The world will become spectacularly awesome in 2021 and all of us will have an experience of living that dream.
