Redefining The Word, Exercise.

Long ago, when I took a giant step onto a fast moving spiritual path, I was told clearly that what was needed at this point of my journey was, exercise. I was sitting in a class of about 20 people and everyone in the room expelled a groan at the very thought of this. As the moans raced through the room, we all held onto our seats thinking that, "maybe this spiritual fast track really isn't for me after all!"

The simple word, "exercise" brings up all the old theme's and visions of what exercise meant to us as children. What was interesting to me was how my initial reaction to this statement actually jolted me too! I have been athletic all my life and exercise most every day, so exercise was not anything new but it was the WORD, "exercise' that sent off warning bells within me, not the actual activity.

We all have a vision of what the word exercise means to us, but we are basing this knowledge on our experiences in the old energy and from the old paradigm. So, lets take a new look at the word from a light filled perspective and from the new paradigm of Light.

Before when we were living in a much denser world, our body's required a lot of movement such as running, jogging and hiking. Or, playing heavy sports like; football, basketball, volley ball, etc. Then there was the gym, where there was an assortment of cardio machines and weights we could lift in order to stay slim and trim.

In today's more light filled world that level of exercise is not necessary to keep our bodies fit. In fact, less is more these day, but even with that said, we have to move our bodies and keep our energy moving. That doesn't take a lot of effort just the choice to get up and do it!

Walking is a perfect way to get out doors and to move our energy. There are a few ways that walking helps our spiritual growth, here are just two of them. The first is, while we are moving our bodies all the stuck energy from all the internal processing begins to move. The second is, as we are walking we are expanding our breathing and deep breathing is our connection to life. How could we not feel better?

Stretching is another good form of exercise that doesn't take a lot of effort, but the pay off is just as great. As we stretch we again are moving the stuck energy in our bodies. Those stuck energies is what causes disease, depression, anger, etc. The list is endless! We are processing in huge ways these day and as we do, the energies have to have an outlet in order for us to bring in more light. Since we are now carrying a lot more light in our bodies the heavy forms of exercise is not necessary, but movement is critical!

Have you ever gotten out of bed in the morning and had a hard time moving your joints? Now, I am not talking about the old aches and pains we have as we get older. I am talking about the joints like, your finger joints, your elbows, how about in the hip area? These are all signs of stuck energy that has not yet been moved out of your body, after a heavy night of processing.

When we are processing, we are digging deep within the cellular structure and pulling out issues that can go back as far as 7 generations! Think about that! 7 generations! This is DNA/RNA clearing and this "stuff" must be moved out of the body in a timely manner, especially these days when we are evolving at the speed of light!

So, why not take a walk around the block? While you are out there you may find that you have always wanted to explore that grassy vale around the corner. Or how about going to the mall? How fun is it to walk around the mall and people watch? Exercise does not have to be a team sport, a trip to the gym, or even a jog through the nearest park. Though all of those things are great, the simple things like walking and stretching can completely change how you feel. It can bring you instant joy and quicken your ability to anchor more light into your body. It is with more light that we are better able to create that dream life we hold in our hearts and see in our minds!

Happy trails...

Just loving you along,

The Bright Light Of Scrutiny

Since all of this new energy has arrived and our new upgraded energy bodies are finding their new balance, I can see just how this energy is going to go about it's work.

Picture if you will, the spot light that is brought in and set up for a grand opening, or before a super sale at a store or mall in your local neighborhood. This huge spot light when lit, reaches up to the sky in bold rays of light, heralding a great event.

That great event however, is YOU. This light has been sent here for you, by you, in order to blaze through the last remaining goo that has been glued to the bow of our ships like barnacles. It is the intense light of scrutiny. Seeing into every crack and crevices of our being and there is absolutely nowhere to hide!

This light is laser thin and it cuts deep, in order to really see and fully understand all the "what, where's and how's of our past. In doing so, it is sure to exit now so that as we can prepare to step into the "new," where the old will not follow. What would be the point of creating something completely new, from old outmoded patterns? It all has to go and in order for it to go, we must UNDERSTAND at the deepest levels of ourselves, how it got stuck onto the bottom of our boats to begin with!

This spot light is demanding, change. Period. No, "ands, ifs, or buts, about it! Change and change, now.

The pressure this can cause can be really intense, if one is being blinded by the light by many different things, all at once. What can help is, to calmly acknowledge the issue, like you would a troublesome child. Reassure it that as soon as you are able, you will give it your full attention and then set about to find the answers. Ignoring it, like any child, will only cause it to push you harder. The answers are there, the spot light that is YOU, is shining the light bright enough to see them now!

The frustration that we can feel during this process can only add more weight to the problems. As hard as it may be to do, staying calm and in the moment maybe the only thing that can allow the spot light that is currently blinding us, to rotate past us, until of course, it comes back around again! And it will, but when it does we can see it coming and with calm certainty make the changes required.

Things defiantly need to change in our lives but it doesn't mean we have to drown under the weight of it all. Step, by calm centered step, is the productive way to go. These issues are not new to us, they are just a lot more insistent and we are far more able to SEE them now, with the clear leans of scrutiny, that will allow us to really understand it all.

Courage is the by-word and what is most needed now to make the necessary changes. We each have an entourage of angels, guides, and Masters here beside us, just waiting to jump in and help. But we must first have the courage to choose to make the changes and then to ask for their help!

Planet earth is the home of angels. It is the most diverse planet in our solar system and beyond. We came here in order to learn how to co-create with our God parents, the joy's of physical life and that is what we are doing! We are making room now for what is here, hovering  just out of our reach.

And in the end, (beginning) we will look back on all of this with tears of joy in our eyes and we will see that all these changes that we thought we could never make, were worth it. The ride of a life time is coming around its final bend and wow, what a ride it has been!

Just loving you along,

Getting From Here To There

As the planetary shift continues, the energies of last months eclipses, and Solstice, dance around our life like a Tango couple bent on ignoring each other as well as those around them. So focused is this energy, that everything not in alignment too it, is brought center stage for review.

That could mean a lot of things to different people. It could mean that the dentist appointment you have been putting off, can be put off no longer. The move you have been wanting to make is now not an option or your life could simply be one train wreck after another with no end in sight.

It is because the old ways are gone and we are playing in a new field of reality. Yes, it all looks the same, so it seems, yet it sure does feel different. That is because our subtle bodies, aka; "energy fields" have had an up grade, that the majority of humanity has never experienced before. In other words, we are now in new territory. A territory that has never been experienced in physical reality, ANYWHERE in creation!

How does that sound to you? Pretty awesome, huh? Well, it is an awesome feeling to think that we have, as a collective, gone where "No person has gone before," but it still takes some getting use too. The one thing I have found useful in this new energy is, to surrender to what isn't working. What I mean by that is this.

The way we create our lives is not the same any longer. It isn't like we did anything wrong, in fact it is because we have done something right! The trouble comes when we try to do things the same way we use too, because in this new territory there are no guide books. Yep, no one knows how this new frontier works. No one! We are all in this kind of, "hit and miss" series of exercises that are meant to teach us how to move forward.

So, what has been working for me is that I focus on how something feels to me before thinking about it. Does it feel good? Does it make me feel happy when I think about doing it? Would this job feel good to go to everyday? Would a relationship with this person enhance my life?" Then if something feels right, I take the next step because I know that it is in alignment to not only my path, but in alignment to my heart!

If after feeling my way into a direction and I take a step that way and things, "don't come easy", I know there is a reason for that. It isn't that I have made a, "wrong turn" or "wrong choice," it simply means that there is something I still don't know, still don't see, or that the timing is a tad off. We can sometimes "get" things so quickly these days that creation has to catch up with us! So, I surrender to the timing and honor the closed doors, knowing that the door I seek, is just around the cornor.

Now, there is another factor that applies here. Our rate of growth these days. We are all growing in leaps and bounds which can cause a bit of a problem here in this 3/4D reality. Example; You are open to receive a vibrational match in a relationship and your heart is bursting from your chest. You just know your new partner is in your energetic space, you can feel them there! You are full of joy! You wake up every morning anticipating the day, wondering if you will meet them today! "Is today the day," you say as you jump out of bed?

You are so full of joy, so filled with love for life that your energy level just moved up a notch or two. You are in this new place of energetic vibration now and "oh it feels SO good!" Then weeks go by and you still haven't met your match and you begin to wonder at this, because you are no longer feeling them in your space as much.

The reason for this is, that you have grown out of the vibrational range of the one you had attracted! In fact, you probably walked right on by them in the store, or at the gas station, etc. What has happened is, in this new energy we are moving at warp speed and vibrationally we are out growing our creations before they have time to land. Do you see?

So, the next time you take one step forward, that seems to land you two steps back, remember that the playing field of earth has changed. You are NOT falling back, per se, you are just moving forward very quickly! Know with all your heart, that when this happens, there is far more ahead of you than you can even imagine and your higher self is with you, helping to make sure you get there!

Just loving you along,
Kathleen

Freedom

When I think of freedom, I think of the words in a Janis Joplin song, "Freedom is just another word, for nothing left to lose." It is true that once you lose everything, there is a sense of freedom, but I can only imagine that the feeling of freedom would only come, after the shock of all the loss had passed.

Freedom has many meanings and not all of them come in a rosy canister, tied in ribbon. For some freedom is being able to do anything they want to do, anytime they choose. To others, it is being free to voice their opinion without fear of execution. And to other's, it could mean the freedom to walk down the street without being accosted. What may surprise a lot of us is that freedom for some may even be, just free enough to eat fresh food and drink clean water.

So, what is freedom really? Is it just a phrase we use when we refer to being able to do anything? Is it being able to live life on our own terms regardless of the consequences? Or is it a state of being that allows us to live outside the box? Is it a label we put on something in order for us not to feel, controlled, hemmed in, or oppressed?

I believe it is all those things, yet none of those things. For me, true freedom comes when we are all free. Not just a few, or those who live in what is labeled a "free country." I can walk down the street today and ask 10 people how free they are feeling right now and get the same answer. Not free at all!

It is when each and everyone of us can be free to be who we are, right now, in this moment. It doesn't mean we will be the same in the next moment or the next. It isn't a state of being that last, because true freedom is being able to change, and to change often, without the need to be fixed into anything. We don't need to live in a "free country" because the world is free. Do you see?

Freedom will come to each of us when we allow others their freedom to be who they choose to be, right now. If someone chooses to be something that we may not like or agree with, so what. We are free to choose to stay or leave. That is the beauty of true freedom! We allow others to be what they are, when they are, because we are free to remove ourselves and be who we choose to be. We don't have the need to fix anyone or anything.

 How long do you think it would take, if we all moved away from situations that made us sad, unhappy and fearful, before those who are acting that way find themselves alone in the middle of their negative world? I sense they would stop this behavior all by themselves!

When there isn't a box, or a prerequisite or even a particular protocol of what we believe others should be, then true freedom will be found and it will be found by all of us.

So, as the weekend passes and all the freedom celebrations end, how free are you feeling right now? Your answer will tell you a lot about yourself. It will also tell you a lot about what is needed to bring your life, as well as, this wonderful planet home. Long ago, my beloved Master guide told me that when earth reaches her new home, she would be called by a new name. Can you guess what that name will be? It will be; "Planet Earth; Freedom's Holy Star!"

Now, that is true freedom in a nut shell!

Just loving you along,
