FORGIVENESS and SELF LOVE are not meant to be exclusive. 

Forgiveness is just letting it go. But self care - self love - must also accompany forgiveness in order to find the relief you seek from hurt, anger, fear and suffering. You may need to forgive yourself and walk away from toxic people who harm you in order to experience lasting peace and wellbeing, the ultimate gifts of letting go. 

You cannot experience true forgiveness (lasting forgiveness) while giving up your personal power, aka your Truth. (Taking care of yourself via your truth is your self responsibility as an adult.) You must find your own way to honor both.

If you are on the path to forgiveness, and really we all are whether…

5 WAYS TO HEAL PANIC ATTACKS AND ANXIETY

Do you suffer from anxiety or panic attacks?

by Dr. Paul Haider

Panic attacks and anxiety are very common. People have so much going on that cause many…

Being a sensitive person can be a confusing, complicated thing in this still harsh world. It feels intuitively right to open, to feel, to enhearten our daily life, but the world is still vibrating at a more armored and edgy place. It is not yet attuned to the ways of the open heart. So what to do? We don’t want to deaden our capacity to feel, but if we feel too much, we get run over by an often heartless world. I have found my best answer in three places...

Selective Attachment: carefully discerning between positive and negative individuals and environments, and only attaching to those people and places that can hold our tender heart safe;

Strong Energetic…

The greatest movement in my personal practice and life today is awakening to myself as literally nature herself. It is a realization process that is guiding me with such love through it's own mysterious layers of communication and practice - sitting together, listening and experiencing this other great truth and her immense energy more and more deeply every day.

Like many of us and most empaths, I have always felt and been sensitive to the energy and love of trees. Since joining …

Gayatri Mantra for the Earth

I found myself spontaneously recording this singing of the Gayatri Mantra today so please forgive the as-is unplanned quality. But the message just kind of flowed out of me so I thought I would share. There is also an invitation at the end for anyone who may be interested.

I dedicate this offering back to the earth for what I take and receive from Her every day (which is everything).

Sprouting Self Love ~ Is It Time for A Self-Talk Spring Clean-Up?

There is so much negatively impacting us and our world right now, so much pressure and crisis and clean up we are are attempting and clamoring towards and facing both individually and collectively. As empaths it can feel just plain overwhelming. Empaths want to address and fix and save and fix it ALL right now. Because cruelty, destruction of the sacred, and unkind things can feel unbearable to our sensitive nervous systems and souls. Sometimes our sensitive systems can barely take it. So what does this have to do with our self talk?

The connection is that while we are being negatively impacted by events or energies in the world it can be especially easy to get ourselves caught in the vortex of clamoring for…

The man has always striven to become a much better version of himself. He only needs something very reliable to aid him in this sacred endeavor. Mystics worldwide and at all ages have seen a human being as an integral self-composed of a harmoniously integrated being: soul, mind, and body.

God, our Maker has already given us everything

We can see and wonder how our physical body improves with exercise, a healthy diet, and the proper thoughts. The improvement of our minds is a little more difficult to be fully appreciated. Ah! Our spirit, however, is indeed a blessing. Our soul personality can achieve miracles in both our bodies and our minds because it’s always followed unchangeable cosmic laws from the beginning of times in a subconscious manner. The secret sought for so…

AMORIFER-ALDEN’S FOUR DYNAMIC ACTIONS:

READING, STUDYING, THINKING, AND CREATING

To me, any self-taught human being develops reliable mental maps without intention. This is what occurred to me, first at age ten years old was the starting point of departure of becoming an avid reader for fifty-two years, and then suddenly a deep profound realization illuminated my mind and heart. I said to myself: “Divide your readings into just four categories”: Philosophy, Universal History, Art, and Science, so I chose just one book on each of these subjects. I don’t really recall how much time I spent using different approaches to be able to create…
