A Home for the Divine

Some spiritual traditions teach that the body and physical world are not important. 

The stress is on the soul and communion with the Divine in whatever form it takes.

Your body could not exist if not for the tiny spark of the Divine that resides within it.

Think of your body as a house, mansion or temple. If you were having an important guest staying over, would you not keep it clean and clutter free? Would you make scheduled repairs on time? 

This is not about fat or skinny shaming. It is about feeling healthy and peaceful. Healthy bodies come in different shapes and sizes. It is up to you to decide how you want to care for your Divine temple.

If you ask your Angels for help, they will guide you to the food and exercise program that is perfect for you. 

Time to get ready! Company's here!

Become a Miracle-aire!

We have been taught that miracles only occur when things are at their worst.

There are miracles all around you. Your body, your connection with your Angels (yes, you have one) and the miracle machine that allows you to read these words. 

A million dollars is the same amount of money whether you have $10 in your bank account or $10 million. When you have a lot of money, and more comes in it feels like a common occurrence. When you become a miracle-aire, each new one that arrives will just add to the wonder and bliss of your life.
 
When you see little miracles all around you, the bigger ones become commonplace. See them, feel the gratitude and many more will follow.

Happy Holidays at the Temple

At this time of year, society tells us we must rush and be in a hurry to accomplish many things, yet our bodies tell us that it's time to slow down. Do not feel guilty if you lag behind. Your body is in tune with nature and the season. Do what you must to prepare for the holidays, but also remember to take some time to slow down, rest, nap or pamper yourself. Your body-temple deserves a Happy Holiday too.

Respect Your Temple

Your body has natural cycles. Physically, you may feel energetic at times and exhausted at others. In a perfect world, you could stop and rest when you felt tired, but responsibilities and obligations force you to "power through". During these times, you can ask the angels to give you a power boost to get you through. Don't forget to rest when you get a chance.

Dis-ease is your body's way of saying, "I need a break." Respect that.

Your body is an amazing creation that enables you to explore and learn in your own unique way. No one else is exactly like you, therefore, no one else can do the job you are here to do. Love and respect your body, whatever age or shape it might be in.

Sit in silence, close your eyes and ask your body what it needs. Ask your angels to arrange your schedule so that you can meet those needs, but still have time to fulfill your other responsibilities. They will be glad to help.

 

MINDFUL MEDITATION

So many of us are on the go all day long. It appears challenging to take time to Meditate. However, meditating is an important part of increasing our spiritual awareness.

Sometimes easing one’s way into this practice is the best approach. One simple way to begin is by being in a state of complete awareness of what you are doing at the time. For some this is like Living in the NOW.

For example: When washing dishes become aware of your hands on the dishes. Feel the soapy water. Do not allow your mind to skip ahead to the next thing you have to do. You can still multi-task ladies, but BE in each task as you are accomplishing it.

If you are at work, be totally focused on each task. As I sit at my lap top, I am totally in the feeling of the keys under my fingers. When I pause to drink tea, I am in the moments of the taste of the tea.

There are times we all allow our minds to skip ahead to attempt to accomplish tasks that need not be dealt with at the time. When we practice Mindful Meditation, we will give each task as it appears our complete attention in a calm and focused manner.

Try this for a day and see if you are calmer of mind, body and spirit by the end of the day. Then try it for another day. This will not only affect your energy, but also the energy of all those around you, then those around them…the ripple effect has begun!

KEEPING IT SIMPLE

As adults we struggle with understanding death. Because of that we pass this confusion onto our children and everyone around us. This only adds to the pain of losing a loved one to death.

When my grandson was eight he asked me what happened when someone died…where did they go? He didn’t ask in fear…only curiosity.

I explained to him that the person left their body and went to another dimension. (He watches sci-fi, so he gets that). I told him that their body wouldn’t work in that dimension so they had to leave it behind. The person was now able to do things, like flying, they couldn’t do in this dimension with their body.

I asked him if that made sense. He said it did, then he went on to chatter about something else.

I didn’t go any further in explaining things, since I have learned with children and even adults, to only answer what is asked. When they are satisfied with the answer, it means anything else said would confuse them.

With Mother’s Day approaching, many of you may have sadness as you miss your Mother whom has already moved to the other dimension. Instead of staying on your sadness, think about how happy she is to be free of her ‘heavy’ body, so she can now fly with the angels!

If you need more closure and confirmation, I am always available to assist you.

ANGELS BREATH

"Many of you are in survival mode right now. Know that it is okay. You have been swept down a raging river being repeatedly dashed against the rocks. You have struggled to keep your head above the rampant waters as you gasp in life-giving air. You wonder if it will be your last breath.

My sweet soul…please allow your angels to assist you. Take a deep breath, then let go, as you let the waters take you under. As you sink beneath without fighting, your angels are able to hold you. They will either teach you to breathe under water or they will gently guide you to the top of the turmoil for deep breaths of oxygen. You will be moved past the dangerous rocks into a place of calm.

Soon you will discover you are skimming on the top of the river with the strength to reach out a helping hand to those struggling around you.

Do not despair. This will not last forever, though it can feel like it when you are in the middle of the process.

Right now simply take the next breath. Breathe in this fashion: Breathe deeply filling your belly with oxygen as you ask for angelic support. Hold your tongue at the roof of your mouth against the back of your front teeth as you breathe in through your nose. Visualize angel energy coming into your being with the in breath. Breathe out through your mouth being careful to expel all oxygen in the lungs. Visualize the angel energy filtering through every part of your mind, body and soul.

Know with every essence of your being that you are LOVED beyond all the stars in the universe. You carry a spark of the Divine within you and are adored by the angels."

CARING FOR YOUR TEMPLE

Yesterday I decided to take advantage of having Karen Walsh, CEMT, RT, in our community. Actually, I decided to pamper me and wanted Karen to be the one to do it! Lol!

Being all Diva-like, I have been unhappy with some lines and saggy skin that have slowly crept across my face.

Karen assured me that her LYMPHATIC FACIAL would rejuvenate the skin as it stimulates the lymphatic system and increases skin elasticity. It certainly sounded better than more invasive procedures. I may have tattoos, but the thought of needles in my face isn’t pleasant!

Though we are spiritual being in physical bodies, we still reside in the body. My mother is a very classy lady. Even in her 70’s, when she walks into a room, heads turn. She pays no attention to this, just continues in her ministry of love. She taught me to take care of myself. She taught me to check to make sure I looked my best before I left the house, and then forget about myself. She is a wonderful teacher.

So I took 30 minutes out of my day with Karen while she did her magic on my face. Since Karen has a medical background, she instructed while giving the facial. It was very helpful. She even took the time after the facial to refresh me on the healthful benefits of dry brushing, since I inquired about it.

I noticed an immediate change in the appearance and texture of my facial skin. She recommends 10 consecutive weekly treatments for maximum benefit. Knowing the importance of I jumped on her introductory special.

Normally it is $30 for 30 minutes, though you can purchase a package deal for 10/30 minute session for $270. However, right now she is offering a limited time special for an additional $30 off the regular package price! Call her at 321-890-5556. Her office is 320 N. Atlantic Ave. 2-A, Cocoa Beach.

On a side note….this is very healing as well as helping the appearance. As the lymphatic is stimulated, I noticed the draining last night and this morning. I honored the lack of energy that was evident due to this, by going to bed early. Today I will continue to drink a lot of pure water and take it easy.

I took before pics and will take after pics…after the 10 week session is concluded. Stay tuned for weekly reports, as I expect this to do more than rejuvenate my facial skin. All that we do to our bodies (our Divine Temples) is reflected in our spirits and minds. Mind/ Body/Spirit.

As the holidays approach we can let our lives get caught in the whirlwind of energy around us and forget to anchor ourselves. One way I will ground myself is to honor and respect my Divine Temple in this way.

TUNE IN TO YOUR BODY

DAY NINE: Tune in to your Body

I spent the morning working at home, and then had a lovely afternoon with my boyfriend. We went to see the Clash of the Titans, then to the mall.

I really wanted to go to the Gallery Walk at Cocoa Village later in the evening. I wanted to see my friends, meet new people and have fun.

However, every time I thought about going, my stomach began to hurt. Each time it happened, I thought, “I must stay home and relax. There is no need to push myself.”
Within five minutes, I felt better.

Then I thought, “I feel great, perhaps I will go to the Gallery Walk after all! Other people have the energy to run around during the day and then run at night too.” Again, within five minutes my stomach began to hurt again!

After this re-occurred a half a dozen times, I got the message. (I know I am a slow…or stubborn…learner! Lol!) I decided to stay home, watch movies and relax.

The stomach pains are gone, but I got the message.

Archangel Anael was firm about this: “Listen the first time to your body. Be in tune with it. It is your temple. If you are running around constantly, you are wearing it out. Treat it with honor and respect and learn the balance for YOU…not what is the balance for someone else.”

Anael’s Affirmation of the Day: “I listen to my body and do what is best for it, for it is a Divine temple.”

KEEP BALANCE

DAY SIX: Keep Balance

Today was very busy and hectic. I had to consciously remind myself to draw Anael’s symbol on my food and around me as I needed peace. In the rushing around I forgot to eat until I was reminded by feeling weak and fuzzy brained…more than my usual ‘head with the angels’! LOL!

I was doing the mind and spirit part of Anael’s plan, but had gotten derailed on the body part. When I got him, I ate some protein and juiced vegetables. Soon I was back on track.

However, I had learned a valuable lesson. Stay focused on balance in all aspects of life.

Anael’s Affirmation of the Day: “When you fuel your temple (body) throughout the day, you allow yourself to be used by the Divine in a perfect way.”

30 DAY ANGEL SHIFT AND BALANCE

Today is Day One in Archangel Anael’s program of balancing mind/body/spirit within. She has told me to do this to provide a roadmap that others can follow to shift their energies. Many spiritual people only do one or two of these. I have been guilty of this many times.

That is not who I want to be, so with the help of Archangel Anael, I will make sure that doesn’t happen. Archangel Anael is very clear that I must be a forerunner on this program….sharing the results….and encouraging others to join with the angels in the balance of mind, body and spirit. The following is what she has told me to do to make my shift.

MIND
I am to write and say my positive affirmations every day.
I am to write something creative every day.

BODY
I am to work out two days a week… with cardio and machines. Two other days of just cardio.
I am to do the five Tibetan Rites every day.
I am to nourish my body by using essential oil blends that are made by the Master Aroma-therapist Doreen DeSerres of Nature’s Spirit to detoxify my body and tone my skin. (this is because her oils work on an etheric level as well as physical) I am to drink lots of water….over 64 oz a day….
I am to eat what feels right for my body, without judgment.
I am to ask Archangel Anael to shift energy of all the food and water that I consume to one of positive energy for my body.

SPIRIT
I am to meditate every day…once in the morning for a few minutes and once in the evening for a few minutes. Then throughout the day, take a moment here and there, to stop and do some ‘mindful meditation’. I am not a person that likes structure. I don’t care for rules. So this is not easy for me. Especially as she has instructed me to journal the flight! However, I have learned to listen to Spirit and when an Archangel tells you to do something, you really should listen!

My lesson today was Mindful Love.

I drank 52 oz of water while working out this morning. Each time I filled my water bottle, I was mindful of the love of Archangel Anael shifting and transmuting negative energies into positive ones for my body.

I did this also for my food. I thanked the energy of the chicken and the cow that gave their lives, as well as the vegetables and grains that gave their life essence to nourish me. I chewed slowly, feeling gratefulness and love throughout.

I caught myself half way through my Burger King double cheese whopper, before remembering to be in that space of love. That made me slow down and I found the sandwich even tasted better.

When I bathed in the aromatic bath salts, I was mindful of the love the angels and the Divine had for me. It brought me to the awareness of love for myself and my body. Bonus was that when I got home in the evening, the scent of the oils lingered throughout the bedroom. I like bonuses!

Anael’s Affirmation for the Day “I am the embodiment of Divine Love!”
