One of the most important things you will do as a human is sit with yourself and be with your pain.  This does not mean staying there, but it does mean acknowledging it for what it is and what it may have driven you do in the past.  It is time to stop running, self-medicating against and hiding from it.  Just like any other facet of your existence, it deserves to be recognized and honored before being released.  You owe this to yourself…..it is time…..let us begin, My child. ~ Creator

Some of you have trouble being able to tell when to stay still and allow things to come to you, and when to launch yourself into inspired action in order to manifest. That is the beauty of the flow, Dear Ones!

When you are in a surrendered state into the flow, there is no figuring out to be done. You know that whatever is happening is what is being energetically supported for your highest good. That means that during a lull period where not much appears to be happening, you can use the time to relax and enjoy activities you love. It also means that when it is time for action, all the signs and synchronicities will clearly point you in the right direction. Your job is not specifically to stand still or to move. It is to stay in a state of non-resistance.

Do you see? Staying surrendered in the flow takes all the guess work out of things for you, and allows you to settle into the perfection of whatever phase you may find yourself in. ~Archangel Gabriel

HOW ARE YOU?   Practice this little exercise on a daily basis. Stop all you are doing, take a few breaths, then notice how you are feeling. This is a good way to monitor where you are emotionally. Notice how you feel inside. Is there tension or calmness? Are you feeling antsy or at peace? Are you afraid or confident?

Whenever you notice you are feeling tense, take time to go into a deeper state of relaxation. By making this a habit, eventually you will find yourself being more at peace and centered, no matter what is occurring around you. Decision-making will be much easier.

You are likely to make better choices when you are relaxed. Your body uses many muscles and more energy when it is tense. Your whole system becomes over-stressed when tension is allowed to build up on a daily basis. Release the stress and enjoy a more fulfilling life!” Manik 9, Day 87

God said:

Have you ever wondered if you had been born somewhere else, how different you and your life might be? What if you had been born in the Himalayas, what would you be like? What would you be doing? Or had you been born anywhere else, what would you be like? What if you were born to different parents even in your same town, even next door, what would you be like? How different might you be then? And what if you had been born at a different juncture of time? Would you be you or someone else?

When all is said and done, you were born to the parents you were born to in the land you lived in the juncture of time you are, and you are as you are, and you have the tendencies you have.

That fact that there are no accidents has to change your view. You were born or adopted right where you are supposed to be. And you are learning and developing just as you are meant to no matter how much you value your upbringing or do not value your upbringing. I suspect you value your upbringing more as you go along in life. Maybe yes, maybe no.

Of course, you held meaning for your parents as well, whether you brought sunny days or cloudy nights.

Here is what I want to tell you. It’s all right. However you are, wherever you are, whatever talents you have or don’t have, you are all right. And, regardless of how you were brought up or not brought up, you develop your talents regardless of disadvantages, and you may not develop your talents regardless of being born with a silver spoon in your mouth.

When I watched social psychologist Amy Cuddy’s Ted Talk about how our body language shapes who we are, I was moved, to say the least.

Her candid story about overcoming her insecurities and self-doubt, and the knowledge about body language that she conveyed through her personal story, have both proven to be invaluable sources of information that have stuck with me to this day, the same of which surely applies to the 27+ million people who also happened to watch the 20-minute talk.

In the video, Cuddy explains that when we make specific poses, such as holding our hands on our hips, our body responds biochemically by releasing the hormone testosterone.  Conversely, when we make a pose that sees us withered inwards or closed off, our body responds by releasing the hormone cortisol, also known as the “stress hormone.”

For instance, “making yourself big” by doing the wonder-woman pose (hands on hips) for just two minutes before a meeting changes the brain in ways that build courage, reduce anxiety, and inspire leadership. “We tested it in the lab — it really works,” Cuddy said on stage.

How you choose to experience the world depends on how much you are willing to release. You can hold onto your ‘old experiences’, letting them shape and mold your now or you can open yourself up to the NOW and enjoy the experiences. ~ Creator

Today we encourage you to celebrate your accomplishments as a wonderful way of moving into greater self love. Think about all of the ways you have grown over the past 6 months, the last year, the last 5 years. Celebrate your wonderful resiliency, your consistent efforts, and your courage! Acknowledge all the ways you have loved, and cared, and made a difference. There are so many things you have done to express yourselves as the delightful beings you truly are!

We urge you to make this part of your daily practice. At the end of each day, take a moment to think of the good that you did. Perhaps it was placing a caring call to a friend who is having a hard time. It could be the smile you gave someone, or a donation you made. It could be a prayer you said, or a moment of thanks you sent to the universe. Even if the only thing you did was getting up and facing the day, it is still something to celebrate!

By adopting this practice, you are consciously beginning to love and embrace the many, many things about you that are glorious and divine. It is recognizing and honouring all the ways you are delightful and loveable, which is a beautiful act of self love and appreciation that can only support you into greater and greater expressions of self. ~Archangel Gabriel

The breath is the gateway to self-mastery.

Whatever you do, do not underrate the practice of breathing. Like with most normal human functions (walking is another example), you can easily fool yourself into overlooking its profound power. Just because the act of breathing is so simple does not make it ineffective. It’s actually quite the opposite. Deep breathing is an essential everyday panacea.

What makes the breath unique is that, even though the majority of it is done unconsciously, you can override this process and breathe consciously. This “conscious override” makes it a highly effective, special tool.

As you (hopefully) already know, deep breathing relaxes your body and mind. But the key is to truly, wholeheartedly understand this and be aware of your breathing as often as possible. When you’re aware of your breath, and consciously breathe deeply, you place yourself in a power position to change your mental, emotional and physical state.
