Physical Transformation
I'm experiencing all kinds of change in my body. This kind of acceleration has been going on for a while now. I even felt an influx of light recently, which is an unusual event for this time when everything feels so contracted. I feel more exhaustion, strange pains in my teeth and ears, and I am reacting differently to herbs and medications. For the last few weeks I was getting intense headaches, and recently realized that this was related to one of the sleep aids I was using. I have begun tapering the medication and I feel much better. Better yet, I'm able to sleep without it, which was not the case even a month ago. Along with this movement I've been feeling a lot of old emotional patterns just falling away kind of miraculous, as some of these have been with me for eons. I've been experiencing heightened purification happening within many people, it has been intense. Guidance continues from many sources on the time of change we are in now, and I've been making preparations. The most recent guidance message New Levels of God's Light speaks of this. This message is still on the public area of our site, and will be here for a while longer so you can read it here at WorldBlessings.net.
A Spiritual View of Depression: The Boundary of Self

Falling Down
I took a really bad fall down ten steps over the weekend. It was the worse fall I've ever taken, which is saying something given that I spent so many years doing judo and aikido. (which is all about throwing and falling). The only worse injury I've had was from a car accident. Every major joint in my body is bruised and sore, one ankle is badly sprained, and I pulled my back. It is a miracle I am doing as well as I am. I learned a lot in the experience, and it occurred to me yesterday that I will need a lot of bodywork to re-balance my structure, as all the joints are pulled and misaligned. I feel an opportunity in this painful experience for my body to find a new level of grounding. The fall was the result in part of my being ungrounded and not paying enough attention to my physical reality, and it is my prayer that this experience can bring a new level of healing so that I can be fully connected spiritually AND fully embodied on the Earth.

Spiritual Awakening: The Opening of the Way
The arrival of a new level of spiritual awareness can be as gentle as a slight breeze, in fact, almost beneath the level of our noticing. It can come as a perception of what is not, rather than what is. For example, a pain in the heart that has been there for... Read Article
The Return of Spring
The birds have returned after a long winter and I am thrilled to be surrounded by them! Our house has many windows and I am delighted to witness dozens of plump, sturdy high desert robins flying from tree to tree and scratching the ground for food. They are quite fat at this time of year, as it is so chilly here still at night. There is nothing more magical for me than hearing the flap of little wings! We've had clouds and snow, cold weather and just today a little sun peeked through the clouds, reminding me that spring is arriving.
The Valuing of Simplicity
Our lives are too busy because we value busyness. If we valued simplicity, our lives would become simple. This may not be apparent on a conscious level, but on an unconscious level our lives follow the Law of Attraction, they manifest what we think and what... Read Article
