A Few Minutes Of Daily Self-Care
I often tell my students to take some ‘me time’ each day, even if it’s only five minutes for self-care. And I have heard 101 excuses as to why someone cannot do this, ranging from parenting responsibilities and career, to house cleaning and maintenance. These excuses typically start with the words, “I have to…”
At one workshop, I had several people offer their excuses for not having even a few minutes for themselves on a daily basis. Then I narrowed it down to a simple question. When you have to go to the washroom, do you hold it in all day long, and all night, because you ‘have to’ do something else? After the laughter stopped, because I did do an exaggerated imitation of someone ‘holding it’ by rolling on the floor in agony!
And then I asked the next question. By holding it all day and night, and writhing in pain and agony, what did I accomplish? How much time did I waste focusing on this issue of ‘I have to go,’ but ‘I don’t have time.’
This is the simplest way to explain time management versus wasted energy and time. I take a bath or shower each day, as do most people. I am usually at least a few minutes under the water in some way. Water is my peacemaker and my calming force. It energizes me and charges me for the day.
Divine Timing And Patience
One of the spiritual messages I receive quite often is that everything comes in Divine timing and more patience is required. It is difficult for many of my clients to digest this, as there is typically no specific date provided with this kind of message.
Sometimes Divine timing is due to our guides and angels feeling that we are not ready yet. Other time there may be blockage that has to be removed, or another reason why things are being held up. When it is in regards to a relationship with another person, it may not be that person’s time to be in your life. While you may be ready, something may have to happen to free them up.
As difficult as it seems, if you wait patiently and do not allow yourself to become frustrated, things eventually will shift. Things will start to happen at a quicker rate. If you carry negativity, frustration, anger, baggage of the past, it creates additional resistance and nothing can move forward. Often we are creating the walls and barriers that prevent the good from coming in ourselves!
Strong Relationship Readings
My clients are typically circumspect and cautious when selecting partners. This is why great variance can be seen in their tastes, or their preferences. And therefore, they are happier if their concerns are alleviated during readings with just one simple answer, or a yes or no reply.
Of course, someone with a great deal of esoteric knowledge, or of a great mystical level, may have the ability to glean all information at an instantaneous glance. But I can assure you, with the volume of information I am usually getting, one is dealing with perspective, timing, opinions, distorted facts, memories, personality, updated ideas, ideals and hopes, and influences. It is always more than a simple yes or no.
With perspective, it can be the time of year or day, or the work the person does, or the culture they come from. This will greatly alter their reading. With timing, it would be about when the question is asked, such as if the question was asked at the beginning of the relationship, in the middle, or at the end. Opinions are good, but need to be sorted out, as people feel too embarrassed to state they are influenced by them. “My mother said,” is often overlooked as the a mitigator, when in fact it can augment or frustrate situations to a major degree.
Releasing A Toxic Relationship
Many of us have held onto a toxic relationship (which includes friendships) because of our mind trying to convince us that it will change. It will get better. I can fix this other person. I will wait for this other person to realize what they have in me. This person is my soulmate, I know it. This person is the only one, there will never be another.
So many excuses, so little truth.
It will not change. If a relationship or a friendship is toxic today, yes, it will change and become more toxic as the days, weeks and months pass.
It will not get better. You are trying to convince yourself it will get better with time with someone, when they finally start to realize that you are there no matter what. This is a huge misconception. Toxic relationships cannot change and the loss will be harder the longer you hold onto this person.
You cannot ‘fix’ your partner. No one can fix another person. No one can change another person. Each individual has to do their own work to clear the toxic or damaged parts of themselves. They have to do it for themselves, or it will never last.
Manifesting Love
He loves me, he loves me not. Do you find yourself daydreaming about love? Imagining your next partner, what they will look like and when they are going to arrive in your life? Maybe you’re wondering if the person that you are interested in is also into you? Or perhaps you’re simply contemplating your current relationship?
Whatever your current relationship status, I am sure that thoughts of romantic love creep into your mind quite often. So, given that we manifest not only with our actions, but even more so with our thoughts, take heed! Manifesting real, meaningful love isn’t as hard as you may think.
Over the years, experience has taught me that next to money, manifesting love is at the top of the list for most people. We all want a relationship where we feel desired, respected and appreciated. And I just told you that it’s not really that hard to manifest. So why does it seem so hard to come by?
Psychic Predictions Are Potentialities
I have had readings with psychics and mediums that are considered the best of the best, and some of their information and predictions did not always work out so well. But I have always understood from a spiritual perspective that this is something that can happen from time to time.
People usually contact a psychic or medium for reading because they have questions and concerns. They are looking for answers, for guidance and support. Most people are looking for advice and closure in times of strife or turmoil – to give them hope that the sun will indeed rise again tomorrow. Of course, many people also hope to receive predictions about future outcomes.
How To Reduce Psychic Energy Leaks
When I’m feeling overwhelmed, or my emotional ‘battery’ is running low, I look at where I’m leaking energy. I can always recharge, but what is causing it to run out so quickly? Sometimes it is due to the presence energy vampires. Paulo Coelho wrote, “What other people think of you is none of your business.” When I am focusing on what others think of me, I’m not focusing on the things in life that bring me joy. This is one of the reasons my battery sometimes runs low.
In this state I become less productive in my work and I start to overthink things. I feel nervous, or general anxiety creeps in. This anxiety can feel pervasive in other areas of my life also. And as an empath and sensitive, I can pick up way too much from other people.
