Everyday Intuition


What does it mean to be an energy healer, an intuitive, an empath?

In my case it means that I receive a lot of information all the time, which can make everyday life much easier and simpler.

For example recently a friend of mine was looking for a work position in a scarcely populated rural area where very few jobs come up. Last week I woke up from a nap with a very clear voice saying: "look in X town for such positions and tell her it's ok to move there".

My rational mind thought "Right. Sure! " The voice became more insistent and said "Tell her that".

I was secretly going to dismiss the direction to inform her because I did not know how she would take it so the order came really clearly: "TEXT her, NOW!!"
When I hear that tone of voice I have learned from experience that it is much better if I do as I am told.

So I texted my friend with the information. She was touched that I would want to do so. So it was worth it just for that.

She also checked in that town and there was a position. Past the deadline. Phone call: job still open. She applied yesterday.

I guess the 'voice' knew something I did not.

And before you tell me that I knew of the vacancy because I had heard it on the news or read it in the newspaper, forgotten it and stored it as a dormant memory: I don't read the paper or listen to news ever. So it had to come from somewhere else!

Do YOU have a similar experience you would like to share?

The Acid Test


My acid test, the one question I always ask myself when I make a decision is: "Would I do this if I was going to die in a year from now?"

I find that it focuses the mind wonderfully and automatically sets priorities.

Have YOU tried it? Let me know in a comment below: you know I LOVE hearing your story!

Eating Raw


I mentioned in a Thanksgiving post that I dropped from a size 10/12 to a small 4 in 9 months without trying and without 'dieting' (meaning that I was eating as much as I wanted, whenever I wanted and a very varied diet). I was asked how it happened. The answer is really simple:

1- I started eating 90 % raw (that's because I choose to eat some meat, fish and eggs that I prefer to cook and a little bread)
2- I detoxed on and off for those 9 months (I was using Colonix at times but that is a matter of personal choice)
3- I also detoxed through juicing for several days at a time.
4- I did a lot of energy work to heal the negative emotions that came up as I stopped stuffing them down with food. Four years ago I successfully overcame an addiction to spending so I knew I could do it with food as well.
5- I eat A LOT of green leafy veggies (even hide them in my morning smoothie)

I eat 90% raw when the weather is warm.

I eat 70 or 80% raw when it gets cold because
  • I find it easier to stay warm when I eat warm food, which tends to be cooked. When my body feels spring coming I will be craving more raw food again and it will be a natural transition.
  • Eating is a very sociable activity in my life and I enjoy eating with my friends and family around the holidays.
  • You can't beat the smell of soup in the house on a snowy day!

The higher the proportion of raw food the more I can honestly say that I can eat as much as I want because when you eat raw, you get hungry very suddenly but when your body has had what it needs, you just don't want any more from one mouthful to the next. So most people don't over eat on raw. I know I don't.

The benefits of eating high raw have been for me:
  • increased vitality : this is why I went raw
  • end of low blood sugar episodes
  • vastly improved moods, generally joyful now
  • vastly improved sleep patterns
  • clear skin
  • weight loss (a welcome side effect)
  • deeper, more accurate intuition
  • easier, faster energy work
  • improved taste and smell

I have been eating high raw for 18 months now. It's a lifestyle. This is purely a personal account and my personal opinion. I had the support of a friend when I got started. Now I have the support of other friends who saw how much I changed for the better and who are eating raw or more raw. Support makes a big difference when you start eating raw.

There is a ton of information online. I personally found Matt Monarch's monthly newsletter very informative and helpful. (The Raw Food World)

Feel free to comment! I know uncooked food can be a hot topic!

Foundation of All Life


Sitting on top of the world
The horizon so distant
the space between me and an infinity of possibilities so vast
my breath relaxes and expands at last
i sigh with relief
shame evaporates in an instant
peace settles
and i remember human dignity
I am aware only
of the Love this place was built upon
of the Love that is the foundation of all life

If YOU know of a place like this please share in a comment below!

Choosing that Love Matters


Last night my kids were chatting in the car: What are you going to say you are thankful for tomorrow at Thanksgiving dinner?"
They kept going for quite a while, it ranged from"I LOVE my life!" to "Actually, I am REALLY thankful for these shoes!"
They meant it.
And so do I: thank you for being here, for changing the world and for choosing that love matters.

Thank You For Sharing!


In the past month three Twitter followers have told me that my tweets and this blog 'held them together' during 'dark times'. One said that it 'saved his life'. I love them with my whole heart! I am SO thankful that they shared with me and made me feel valued and so thankful that I am a part of their life.

So thankful that I myself received the love and support I needed so that I can be here today.

I was not always happy. I too used to have very dark times from the age of 7, in my teens and 20s. As well as the depression and PTSD I was diagnosed with gout, endometriosis, pre-cancer, IBS and asthma. In my 30s I refused to be diagnosed but had all the symptoms of breast cancer at the same time as Crone's disease.

I spent 6 years rebuilding my body holistically (no medication) and I have been re-patterning my emotions and thoughts DAILY for about 12 years.

I am now completely symptom free and am joyful most days and I have gone from a size 10/12 to a size 4 in a year, without trying and without dieting. I can even eat wheat bread again! Hooray!!

I am thankful that the love I received from so many over the years is being passed on and is blossoming into the lives of my beloved brothers and sisters. Thank you for sharing your lives with me!

Sane is Safe


When we start developing healing powers, we are often scared by the information we are given, by our new abilities or by our power.

This is no small matter as rapid or deep change can really
  • unsettle our self image
  • disorganize our thinking
  • make us doubt ourselves
  • create depression
  • put pressure on our relationships with others

Of course this is all good because through the cracks new patterns emerge. That is how we create.

But at the same time, you need to keep yourself sane because that is the best way to keep yourself safe energetically. So:
  • take it easy
  • change gradually
  • do whatever is familiar and reminds you of who you are used to being while consciously changing certain parts of your life/thinking/being.
What is YOUR story of changing spiritually and growing into your power?

What I Am Worth


I really got it this week end: how much I earn and what kind of relationships I have with people have little to do with my skills, my ability or what I want. Instead they are a direct reflection of what I UNCONSCIOUSLY believe I am worth or I deserve.

My childhood programming, unresolved past life memories and soul choices combine in my unconscious to create a vibration that I am not even aware of most of the time. That vibration attracts situations and people that are a compatible match and that mirror me.

So:

1- I can stop blaming myself for 'messing up' because in most cases I am not aware I am doing it

2- I am now watching myself to catch what I really believe unconsciously, in spite of my best conscious intentions

3- I am even more grateful than before for all the wonderful people in my life who are my mirror, whether what they bring me looks positive or negative: they are only pointing me towards my truth. And that truth is that I am Love, finding my way back to the Divine. And it's much easier to see what is going on with me when I look at others than when I try to look at my own nose, which is really hard to do if you've ever tried!

What do YOU think?

Protecting Human Angels


Tuesday is always such a good day to think about protection and healthy boundaries. I had so many great comments after my Angels Aren't Nice post. Thank you everyone! I love it when my thinking aloud in a blog turns to dialog.

Two main points have come from all this:

1- ACCEPT THE DICHOTOMY INTO ONENESS

if you are a human angel, or earth angel, the more you accept both parts of yourself: the angel AND the human, the more people around you are likely to accept them as well and allow for you to have a range of reactions without always expecting you to be sweet and angelic or on the other hand, super logical and grounded.
I am really hoping to be able to mesh both aspects of myself into ONE functioning whole.

2- CREATE SAFE BOUNDARIES
of course everyone needs to have good boundaries but because angels in their original disembodied state are programmed, designed, willing to always help and be of service, to always say "Yes, I will protect and support you" it is VITALLY important for human angels to learn r to say no so we don't burn out.
While in angel form we are nimble and can keep going endlessly. While in a human body, we must protect the body in order to thrive. And it does NOT come naturally to most of us angels.

So these are the two ways I am practicing to protect my energy as a human angels.

What do YOU think? Leave a comment below and let me know!

Angels Aren't Nice


Angels aren't nice.

They are compassionate. They are helpful. They are disembodied and therefore more nimble in their actions.

Angels love you more than you will ever comprehend
while in a human body.


Angels will save your life or your children's. Whisper guidance in your ear. Sing to you as you awake. Embrace you when you need to be held. Give you a parking spot if that is what you really desire. They can be very funny at times.

But their aim is not to be 'nice'. Their aim is to do what's right and to support you.

At times that might mean being tough, making hard choices, yielding power.

The wrath of an angel can be as vast as its love.


The same of course goes for human angels.

People often feel my love for them first. I send healing their way, remove pain, help with a 'miracle' and they say: "You are an angel". They are right of course since I could be described as a human angel. I have been called various things: a spiritual Master. An Awakened Goddess.
Even a Saint in some traditions. Such a wonderful varied world of perception out there!
All being a human angel means is that I can read someone's energy, know what they feel then think a positive thought and remove their pain. It's just a normal human ability, that most have not uncovered yet.

But back to my point. Then my new friend or client realizes that I am quite happy to speak the truth and use my sword to cut through the knot of ignorance if need be. My foul mouth surprises some. I am happy to love all of creation. All of my creation. I embrace and love the shadow of each individual as much as their Light, their sweetness as well as their bitterness. And I feel personally responsible for all of who they are in my world since they are a mirror of me and we are One.

Angels aren't nice. They are real. And multi-faceted, just like everybody else!

In the beautiful words of @
LeeHiller : "Angels are strong fierce and often battle ready but are kind, compassionate and want us to do well they are complex beauty. There are days I wear my battle Amour & feel like am an Archangel. Other days made of Love & light. Yes the gentle soul & fierce warrior it's all one. I often find it a conflict within my own heart."

Lee's deep comments are making me think that I need to be better at accepting both aspects within myself so that it is better accepted by those who interact with me. Thank you Lee!

Do YOU have a story about an angel who was more than 'nice'?

The Void Becomes a Flow of Love


There will be more coming up about all this in my upcoming ebook but in short and to help you all through these few days:
  1. the past 3 weeks were a detox of resentment and OLD HIDDEN poisonous thoughts
  2. yesterday was a portal out of self defeating patterns and opening the way into a future where we create respectfully and protect each other
  3. today is a day of Truth, Balance and Order as the basis for Universal Love so PLEASE ride that wave! Today will take you as far as you are willing to go into healing and Oneness
  4. tomorrow, well, I don't know what to tell you about tomorrow before it happens. I have a feeling we are looking at an A-tom bomb of love, beauty and creative inspiration flowing through our world. If you do nothing else, go sit by the river or imagine that you are. Actually it just came to me to tell you this:
TOMORROW THE VOID BECOMES A FLOW OF LOVE

and depending on how sensitive you are to that strand of creative energy in the world, it might just knock you out with bliss!

So please remember that you are human and stay
  • grounded
  • hydrated
  • rested
in that order.

I apologize for being so inarticulate about the beauty of these 3 days.
I am in dumbstruck and in AWE.
I am SLEEPING for hours on end, dreaming the world into 'reality'

This is really just a quick update to let you know that what you are feeling is real. Please
  • trust
  • let go
  • surrender
  • create
  • enjoy
  • delight in the Bliss!
Your response to my 11.11 Portal post has moved me to tears as I read so many beautiful stories of trust, surrender, honesty and transformation. I will publish them here as soon as I can think straight.

What are YOU experiencing at the moment? Leave a comment below or send me an email at sophielhoste@gmail.com Together we Create.

11.11 Portal


I was raised and learned to think in a most rational, Cartesian environment. So I am a true skeptic. But 5 years ago, I noticed strange things started to happen in my life every August, every 11.11 and every Easter. A couple of websites gave me useful information. Mostly I had to relax into feeling what was happening and pay attention.

Those times are portals in our Western culture. A portal is a place of choice. You can stay on the side that you are on or you can cross over to the other side. Into the unknown, the new experience, the potential. 11.11 even looks like two pillars on either side of a portal.

Four years ago I changed continents on 11.11 without having consciously planned it ahead because I left on the 10th but landed on the 11th. And that landing was the beginning of 18 months of the deepest (and most painful!) transformation in my life, that culminated in my body being completely healed and my finding Oneness with the Divine. I knew when I landed on 11.11 and got off the plane that I had landed into a new life, another reality. And it proved to be true.

Around this time last year I met and became friends with someone who took me to a whole new dimension of my spirituality, all the way into the Void of Creation.

This year I am living through 11.11 with a whole team of amazing individuals who understand my work and support me into creating here what I brought back from the Void.

11.11 marked the end of the WWI. The end of horror on the largest scale in human memory at that time. Every year on 11.11 we honor our veterans (it's Remembrance Day in the UK, Armistice day in France). And in being reminded of what soldiers go through we are given the choice every year:

- to take action towards peace
- to set respectful, workable boundaries
- to ascend higher towards Oneness
- to create a future we really want to be a part of

Every year on 11.11 you can walk into the Light, into Mastery, without dying.

Mostly the detox work happens during the 3 weeks preceding the portal. All you have to do today is let yourself be, dream your future, ascend. Honor your protectors and the protector in you.

I hope that YOU enjoy 11.11.2009! Be part of my support team and email me (sophielhoste@gmail.com) to tell me what peaceful respectful future you are creating today! I'll post the stories here on my blog.

It's Not Just You!


In the past 3 weeks the universal energies that facilitate our awakening and ascension have been very intense again. Someone mentioned 'crazy energy fluctuations'

It has created physical and emotional detox leading to more clarity. Of course where there is clarity more Light can come in, which is the whole purpose: to be lighter and more enlightened.

This is what I have been hearing from clients, friends and family:

- Arguments, negotiating new boundaries, experimenting with different roles, healing co-dependency with some people taking more responsibility and others letting go of their burden have been common.

- Needing to rest

- Needing to sleep so we can dream, receive new information and re-arrange our thoughts

- Lots of new insights about the hidden truth in our lives

All this leads to increased self-respect, increased respect in our dealings with others, better communication, more time and space to love, play and have fun instead of going round the same old defeating patterns.

We are being made ready for 11.11 in a couple of days. More about that in my next post.

Have YOU been feeling the unsettling detox of the past three weeks?

Raw Chocolate Truffles


As some of you know I eat 'high raw' which in my case means 80-90% raw food. It gives me more energy than I have ever had. Usually only my last meal of the day, shared with my kids, is partly cooked food. If you know me you will also know my passion for good tasty food and in particular for everything chocolate! Raw cocoa is packed with magnesium and I need a lot of that for all the energy play I do every day!

Today I wanted to have fun and improvised some Raw Chocolate Truffles (loosely based on a Raw Chocolate Fudge a friend gave me 3 weeks ago. )

Quantities are
approximate, depending on how much you want to make and how sweet you like your chocolate.

2 thirds cup raw cocoa powder
pinch of maca (careful: it can be an aphrodisiac!) or any superfood of your choice
1 tbs raw coconut butter (NOT the coconut oil)
1 tsp raw cocoa butter, grated or shaved with a fork
1 tbs raw honey
Agave powder and liquid agave to sweeten to taste (yes, just taste it! LOL!)
2 tbs Tahini, enough to turn the above ingredients into a paste
1 tsp cocoa nibs and 6 chopped raw cashew nuts if you want to add some crunchy consistency.

refrigerate for 15 minutes.
Spoon into truffle shape and roll into more cocoa powder, either neat or sweetened with agave powder.

Improvise, improve and let me know! Have fun!

Emotional Detox With the Flu

I think we only really suffer from things like the flu if we have been resisting an emotional or spiritual change so the physical body takes over and 'grounds' us to force us to think about the consequences of our actions like a parent does with a reckless teenager!

And while each individual person reacts to a 'bug' in a different way, each illness also has its own general purpose and challenges us in specific areas of our lives to give us a chance to heal them.

Which brings me to the current 'swine' flu. It has all the usual flu symptoms but some are unusual or unusually strong.

1. very high fever, repeatedly: that's good because a fever is a great purifying fire that burns away toxins in your body, including old emotional toxins. As well as creating an environment in which it is difficult for the virus to thrive of course. Fever can also alter your perception and allow you to see things you don't usually notice.

2. vomiting and diarrhea in some people. Unusual for a flu, but more detoxing right there!

3. of course this flu gives you the usual shivers. But it is also particularly painful in your JOINTS which means that it is cleaning impurities in there, for those of us who have control issues and don't let go easily.

4. deep breathing issues with this flu, which is about repressed and unexpressed SADNESS. It seems to clean old, very old sadness, all the way to the bottom of your lungs. (unless you had done that part of the work before of course!)

5. violent, painful sinus infection: that's about not crying when you need to as well as irritation with someone who is close to you. So let go, cry and say what you have to say to your loved ones!

6. lasting in many cases 3 to 5 weeks, this flu is unusually long and tiring and therefore really debilitating: again that's about letting go. When you are so tired that you are disabled, the only thing you can do is let go, allow other people to help and learn to receive!

7. the swine flu keeps coming back. Every time you think you're getting better, it comes back, with another twist, another layer, a deeper issue: it feels like the Divine Hand grabbing you back and saying: "Not so fast! There's more: LOOK DEEPER! SURRENDER into it instead of fighting it!"

8. Because it is such a serious illness, you really need to REST. In our society of super heroes who can keep going for ever, this flu only goes away when you SLEEP A LOT. For days.

9. It makes you hungry. Unusual isn't it? Most flus spoil your appetite or numb your taste buds. This one makes you feel like you want to EAT. Makes sense to me: it goes well with REST

With this particular virus spreading so fast and affecting so many I really think that swine flu is supporting Planetary Awakening by guiding us to:
  • detox sadness
  • detox resentment
  • detox toxic relationships
  • eat
  • rest
Truly deeply happy people (and therefore most children) avoid it all together or have it more lightly and recover much faster than sad or resentful individuals is my observation.

The Divine and our bodies are so wise and always find a way to get us to let go and grow!

I hope for YOU that you can learn all those lessons gracefully and WITHOUT getting the flu!

Do you know someone whose life was changed by Reiki?



I started as a healer
when I became a Reiki Master 11 years ago. I still use Reiki daily: it's in my hands so it goes into everything I touch, cook, draw, paint and use.I also use it for "hands on" and remote healing to reduce pain pretty much instantly. It can also be used to smooth conflict and harmonize relationships. Over time it has become second nature to me and I use it as naturally and automatically as I breathe.


I teach Reiki to social workers, medical doctors and to parents. I attune their kids and show them how to use it to strengthen their loving bonds, to repair trust, and to lessen physical pain.

There are so many different types of Reiki nowadays and Reiki combines so well with whatever spiritual practice you may have, the possibilities are truly infinite.

Join me on Sunday at 2pm EST to discuss what Reiki is and all the different types along with ways you can use it to improve your family's life. Even if you think you already know a lot about Reiki, I am sure you will still learn something!

How Do You Reach Enlightenment?


How do you reach Enlightenment?

At the moment it is being made easier by the fact that the whole of creation is raising its vibration like never before. Many more are becoming 'enlightened' more easily. Having said that, some paths will bring you there faster than others:

1- spontaneous enlightenment experience, often while in nature

2- near death experience

3- a combination of:

  • having lost 'everything'
  • losing everyone in our lives or believing that we have
  • extensive periods of celibacy. As practiced by most organized religions. But it seems to 'happens' to very spiritual individuals, at some point in their life, even outside of organized religions.
  • giving up whatever makes you complacent (addictions, even to everyday food or spending; co-dependent relationships; soul destroying jobs; abusive families...)
It's because all the above are crutches and when they are removed from our lives we learn to rely on our inner selves and on the Divine.

All we have discussed so far is what brings us to the portal. To the Heart of the Divine.

How do we stay there after we enter?

That's when the real SURRENDER happens. Again and again.

How?

Lose yourself in Love. Seriously: what do you have to lose?
"Remember Creator so much that you are forgotten." said Rumi

Surrender, surrender, surrender, surrender, surrender. Surrender the 'how'.

Let the waves from the Divine Ocean take down the walls that surround your heart.

Practice daily. Every second of every day. Want it. Think about it, make it your focus, have a strong intention! The universe will oblige and deliver.

Can YOU feel the waves of surrender?

Surf the Wave


Every so often something or somebody blows your whole world open.

Someone speaks their LOVE for someone or for a passion in their life

softly

and

confidently

and we watch life create itself.

From the brink of despair, destruction or delusion, a miracle happens.

The wall turns into a gateway and Light comes streaming through, photons turning into matter, reality being transformed in

wave after wave of creation.

That is how life is created in our universe. On all planes of our existence. Catch a wave and learn to surf!

The Portal of Enlightenment

What is this portal that I spoke of on Tuesday August 4? The portal to the Heart of God.

The portal was always there. It used to dwell in the heart of some very special Saints who had given up their lives in service to humanity and whose ego had become non existent. These special people often belonged to organized religion but not always. When you were sincere in your quest for the Divine, you were eventually brought to one of them and they could show you how to become one with God. That is what we call "Enlightement" = being taken into the Light, becoming one with the Light, becoming the Light. Being taken into the mystery.

I was taken through the Heart of my own teacher in November 06 and again in December 06. And again in December 07.

Why so many times? Once you reach enlightenment, that's it, right? Not! Enlightenment was the gateway, the portal. A rite of passage, not a destination. It was just another milestone. Most of us were so attached to the paradigm of duality that we would cross over, for a moment, but come back to our everyday life, blinded, blissful, happy and transformed but still in the same life.

In March of 2009 something major happened. Something extraordinary shifted. Have you heard of "the Shift"? ok, well that was last March, guys. It's happened, done, stop looking and waiting and keep moving forward: we've done it!

Since then, It's been possible to cross over to the other side, to the Light side, into the Heart of God and stay there.

Of course there is still change and progression, because there is still creation in motion. And where there is motion, we go this way and that and forever try to stay close to a point of balance and that requires effort and regular course correction.

So the Portal to enlightenment is there, always. It is easier to access on certain days. But it is always there now. Find it in YOUR life and cross when you are ready.

Gateways in Multi-dimensional Time

If you think that time is linear and if you think that something will take a long time to happen, then it will.

If you think that time is multi-dimensional and that each second contains eternity then your consciousness can go into another world, into the past, into the future or into ANY plane of existence at any moment of the linear time. When you are in that other dimension, you change, heal or create whatever is necessary for the highest good of all.

When you live that way each moment contains eternity because each moment contains the heart of God and when you live in the heart of God everything is possible.

Of course in order to live on earth you rejoin linear time and start living in sync with others again. But who you are is changed and so what you attract is different. Miracles start happening in seconds. You can sit at your computer, wish with all your heart to talk to someone and somehow, against all odds, habits and reason, they suddenly appear on your Twitter stream, in your FaceBook or send an email. Technology makes this possible you think? Before I even used a computer when I wished in that way people would write to me that day, phone me or literally appear on my door step demanding that I let them into my home .

Miracles are real. They happen in the heart of God. They materialize in linear time every day as soon as that part of your being is aligned to the heart of God. This is what I call Quantum Healing. Call it what you want but DO it! Open gateways in multi-dimensional time.

Do you think that time is linear and solid or have you created multi-dimensional time in your life yet?

Practicing Surrender


Surrender. Sounds scary? It can be. Because we are not used to it. Because we have had bad experiences of being out of control.

So we need to practice.

First surrender the small things. Don't start with letting go of your day job and not knowing how your mortgage will get paid! Start small, with something that does nor matter so much. I think that's why people like experimenting with things like finding a parking space. It's manageable. If you don't find one it's not the end of the world and if you do it's so gratifying.

Then ask for some people to show up in your life. Ask for small sums of money. Ask for appointments to be changed or canceled, prices to be dropped so you can afford something you want. Small measurable things that you can prove happened. Pay attention to your circumstances. Notice when your wishing and surrendering the 'how' brings you what you want.

And remember: surrender is voluntary. Surrender is NOT submission. It is not forced. You are not being beaten down: you are willingly letting go. And letting God carry you.

The second part is gratitude. Surrender into gratitude. Immerse your self into it. Lose your self into it. Let gratitude flood you, overwhelm you, submerge your heart.

Do NOT take my word for it. Try it for YOURSELF: wish, surrender, be grateful. Repeat.

Abuse is Confusing


The worst thing about having been routinely abused is that
YOU DON'T KNOW

You don't know that you were abused.

You don't really know how bad it was until much, much later.

You don't know what is 'normal'.

You don't know what is healthy.

You don't know what real love is.

You don't know who to trust.

You don't even know how to trust.

You don't know what is right.

You don't know how to react. (You tend to freeze or over-react.)

You don't know whether to be quiet or whether to be vocal.

You don't know if you can trust your instinct.

You don't know if telling the truth is going to make things better. Or much worse.

You don't know if you will survive.

You don't know what you are worth.

You don't know how to love.

You don't know what a healthy boundary feels like.

You don't know if what you 'naturally' want to do is healthy or a habit of protecting yourself.

You don't know why you are sick all the time.

You don't know why you are lovable.

You don't know why your relationships fail. Routinely.

You don't know.

Yes, the worst thing about routine abuse is that it's very confusing.

And the younger you were abused, the worst it is. But the above also applies to adult victims of abuse.

Thankfully there are ways to recover. There are countless therapies that will help you peel away the layers of pain and confusion. Increasingly there are therapies (such as the ones I practice) that reprogram your neuronet completely and create you anew, the way you were meant to turn out. To allow you to find your true human and Divine core. Your Love Compass deep inside of you. The place inside yourself that you can rely on.

So you know

So you know who to trust

So you know you are lovable

So you learn how to trust

How to love

So you know that you are, after all, a divine spark of love and as such entitled to en-JOY-ing the experience that we call life.

If you know someone who keeps messing up big time, who looks confused a lot, who is stuck in self defeating patterns, chances are they have been abused. However together they look on the surface or in some aspects of their lives. Even when you know you can't live with them, send them love and accept them deep in your heart, where you create miracles. So they can start finding their own Love compass.

Abuse is not forever. YOU can recover. Together we learn.

Harmon Hathaway, President of the American Yoga Association will be joining us this month as we discuss breathing and how it helps us with grounding.

Harmon teaches alignment yoga and has a number of videos on YouTube explaining alignment yoga.

During our discussion we will discuss how proper breathing allows us to become a more embodied, spiritual being.


The importance of breathing:
  • oxygen recharges the body (solar plexus)
  • oxygen purifies the blood stream
  • and many more benefits

When I find a healer or a teacher I resonate with, I always want to hear their voice and I want to be in their vibration. I invite you to share the experience with me.

2- On the other Sundays of the month I will meditate at 2PM EST and invite you to join me in meditation and prayer for Peace and Oneness.

There is power in numbers, you know that. Together we can create a beautiful vibration of Oneness, Love and Joy. So join me every Sunday at 2pm EST, I will be meditating for Oneness with you. You can tune in energetically from wherever you are in the world.


For the live phone calls "Second Sunday with Sophie" I am asking you to contribute $8, $17 or $25. I WILL NEVER RAISE THIS BASE FEE so my teaching about Oneness is always available to everyone. This way we can:

She is One With Love


The wonderful Suzanne Williams sent me this haiku on Twitter:


Her arms move to the
beat of silent awareness
She is one with Love


And said to me: When I wrote this it reminded me of YOU! :0)


Could I wish 4 a better friend?

Being Still While in Motion

Tuesday's post was about learning to listen to the whispers of the Divine before She hits us with Her cosmic hammer and wakes us up in our private lives with a disastrous divorce or bankruptcy or on a global level with an earth quake or a tsunami. Do you remember how we all felt affected by the Tsunami of 2004? It was as if the earthquake that created the tsunami shook the foundations of our collective heart and sent a wave of compassion around the globe. We realized that we were all potential disaster victims, wherever we live. We united in a loving response to our brothers and sisters who were traumatized by the event.

We are all one and we know it deep down but we seem to remember it more when we are at risk of losing everything. Because it shakes our complacency.

There are better, more gentle ways of shaking complacency. One of them is to KEEP MOVING.

After a life time (life times) of sitting still I am understanding that I am more aware & listen to the Divine better when I am in movement. That is because the Divine is Love becoming, creation in motion. So when I move I am more in sync with my Creator.

Paying attention and listening does not have to mean sitting still. Sitting meditation has a great calming effect, is proven to reduce stress and teaches us to become centered and to let go, to drop busy work and to stop identifying with what we do. Sitting meditation teaches us to BE. Once we have mastered this it is important to learn to keep that still center WHILE IN MOTION.

So you don't need to sit still to pay attention. You can be aware while in motion. Let your life be a prayer and a meditation in action.

Have YOU found a way to be still and aware while moving?

Are You Listening?

Yesterday (Monday) I was swept by a huge wave of energy and at felt a strong urge to tweet: "When God whispers do you hear her? Or do you wait for the tsunami before you listen?" I thought I was using a metaphor.

All day today (Tuesday) I wanted to cry. Great sobs of deep sadness from the core of me, for no reason i knew of.


Half an hour ago I was stunned to read the headline: "Quake triggers tsunami in the Samoas, killing 34"

Of course I do not think that God sent the tsunami to punish anyone. I do however think that I was tuned to the rumblings of the earth I inhabit and felt the Tsunami coming, hence the imagery I used yesterday.

We need to pay attention.

We need to pay attention!
We need to be aware
We really need to listen

Listen to me: we need to pay attention and to listen! To the rumblings of the earth, to the whisper of the divine, to the world that is cracking around us like a ship in the storm.

Awareness is going to be our only guide through the shift. So please, pay attention and LISTEN and you will be surprised at how much information you can gather. Useful information.

Are YOU listening?

When I Stand in the Center

I never know how God's voice is going to reach me and when it does it takes my breath away every time!

When I stand in the center, what moves and what stands still changes.

When I stand in Her center Creation spins around me.

I surrender

There, through the Heart of God I love all.

Because in His infinite wisdom he gave us each other to love to remind us of Him.

There miracles happen, people appear, minds are shaped, money is created

In Her Center Miracles Happen

In Her Womb you heal

Success


Recently @kelvinringold tweeted: "Winning is relative, you know. Sometimes losing can be winning." which brought me back to one of my favorite topics at the moment: What is success?

By which I mean: what is success for me? I had my upper arm tattooed when I was 22 years old to be reminded daily that when I reached 40 I wanted to be able to look back and have no regrets. (It worked: I still have no regrets!)

So I guess that is my definition of success: being able to look back on my life without regrets. Each day I ask myself: If I knew I was going to die tomorrow, what would I choose now? How would I spend my time and who with? Is there anyone I love who does not know it? Is there anyone I am responsible for who is being neglected in any way? And I make all my decisions based on that. Have done since I was 20.

Never go to bed angry
Tell your kids you love them as they leave for the day
Only allow positive people in your life
Be grateful for what you love, have, enjoy (material and otherwise)

That is success to me.

And having time. Beyond the money I need to function in this society, I highly value having the time to be more than acquiring more 'stuff'. Time to be on my own. To be with others. Having the time to smile, to chat, to listen, to walk, to follow my flow, to grow. Having the time to love. Did you notice how it 'takes time' to really love people and to make them feel loved? That is something I treasure deeply. It's kind of old fashion and not very sexy, I realize that. It never makes newspaper headlines. But it makes me smile. Every time.

How do I measure a result like that? By how much I smile and by how well I sleep at night. By how healthy my immune system is.

Of course there is the Law of Attraction. And the people who tell me I can manifest anything I want. As I have many times in the past. That I can manifest everything I want. I would need to manifest a warehouse to store all my everythings in it! I don't want to manage a large warehouse. So I need to decide what I really want. I mean really. What makes me happy every time? And manifest THAT. Which will be the measure of my success, regardless of what other people think makes THEM happy, material or otherwise.

What makes YOU happy every time? What is the measure of YOUR success?

The Healer at the Water Cooler

Every week someone asks me what I want out of life, what my goals are, why am I not super wealthy yet if I understand the Law of Attraction and if I am as powerful energetically as I say I am. They are all very good questions and I have spent days answering those questions to the best of my ability. With my head. And with my heart.

What I realized today is that neither my head or my heart were going to give me the answer. The answer is in the way I use my time. What do I spend the most time on? What do I do when nobody is watching? What do I naturally want to go back to when I have a free moment? What do I do easily because I am good at it? A Twitter friend recently asked: "Do you know what makes you purr?" In other words what do I do so naturally, so instinctively that I am relaxed enough to want to purr like a comfort oriented, self-centered, always balanced and fall-on-my-feet-no-matter-what cat?

When I was a Marketing Analyst for a large international organization, I was ill about 2 weeks out of 4 for months. And that was in my 20s when my body was youthful and should have been healthy! The only moments I felt relaxed were when I was chatting to people about their lives. Which was fine at the week end but made me feel guilty if it ever "wasted company time". What was happening to this goal oriented workaholic girl who had always given 110% to her job? After a few months it hit me: working in a Marketing Department no longer made my creative juices flow. I ENJOYED listening to people tell me about their lives and their issues all day long. I was good at being there for them and at actively listening as they worked out solutions for themselves. Some people even got paid to do what I naturally enjoyed doing. So instead of being the 'lazy' employee/healer at the water cooler, I became a healer. I had voted with my time.

Twenty years later I need to watch how I use my time again and I am quite certain that it will show me how I can best express my passion for healing and for union with the Divine. Whenever I have followed my heart, my needs have been taken care of. I need to remember that!

How do YOU naturally use your time?

Divine Conference


When we are a healers in essence, whether we work as one or not, some days we are more influenced by outer energies than usual. Of course we have free will, we can choose to block things out. My experience of doing so is that it either stunts my growth or results in missed opportunities. The Divine in its infinite wisdom knows what I need when and graciously provides me with it just at the right time. All that is required of me is to pay attention, listen and flow with it.

We all incarnate with a purpose and gifts that allow us to fulfill that purpose. When our incarnation purpose is to be a healer we have built in mechanisms that allow our energy systems to tune into energies outside of our own systems in a very refined way. We really need to honor this process and allow for the times when we are tuned into other frequencies, make space for them, create a life style that allows for the ebb and flow of the energies around us.

I allowed too many people to have access to me around this Equinox and now I am paying the price with a migraine headache resulting from the influx of energy I was meant to tune into and receive being blocked.

If I was a sales person everyone would understand that I need to go to a trade show at certain times of year. If I was a farmer I would have to plant and harvest when the seasons dictate. If I was pregnant I would have to drop all other responsibilities and give birth at a certain point. If I was an MD everyone in my life would make time for me to attend professional conferences. My work is low key and often hidden. But what I learned this month is that the special times in the year when energy is graciously made available to me by the Divine, I am going to show up for that conference.

Does YOUR lifestyle allow you to be available for your divine conferences?

We Are Loving by Nature


I believe that the Divine is Love in action = Loving and therefore we are also loving by nature.

We always strive to heal, grow and create.

We do the best we can with what we know, ALWAYS. And
when we know better we do better .

We only deceive ourselves in as much as we have agreed to play into this illusion we call our reality to experience in a certain way.


Be

Love

Dismantling the Ego


After yesterday which was a magnificent Loving Goddess day, I was fully expecting to have another sun-filled glittery day. But no, today was a weird day. People falling, getting hurt, acting and speaking from their ego when you least expect it, crying, feeling negative and disheartened, saying they are tired or lonely beyond words. Feeling numb and/or faint were definitely today's common symptoms. Go figure! Having to process too much energy and manage too much change at once me thinks.

I countered it by dedicating the day to practicing gratitude. I felt deep in every cell of my body how heart-felt gratitude connects us with the magnificence of Divine Creation and so keeps us humble. I stayed with that for quite a while.

Behind the gratitude/humility feeling I realized that our world has been changing so fast for so long, energetically, economically and therefore emotionally that many of us don't know who we are any more. I am not just talking about a traditional break down as defined by psychologists. I mean the shifting of deep spiritual reference points that is forcing a re-patterning of our energy systems in ways that we cannot conceptualize and therefore cannot express. The inability to express the experience creates a lack of commonality when emotionally we could really use the comfort of sharing our experiences.

I understand that we are only feeling discomfort because we are resisting the natural process of change. And this time we really have no idea where we are headed, in a big way. All we can do is trust, as we watch our egos being constantly challenged and dismantled, that beyond the taking apart of the walls in our lives, beyond the discomfort, is what we have been wishing for. What have you been wishing for? Now is the time to be sure as your wishes create now more than ever.

Under all this is emerging a current of powerful untamed life force. I suspect it is to keep us safe when we start yielding this power that the ego must vanish first and fast.

Surrender is where it is all driving us. A friend's advice this afternoon was: "
Dig deeper, love yourself unconditionally". What kind of day did YOU have?

An Emotional Day


Today was deeply emotional for a lot of people, in a loving way. Many have told me they spontaneously burst into tears, either in joy, in gratitude or in awe: all good. If you reached out for Kleenex and chocolate, you were in good company!

There was an opportunity for all loving relationships to deepen, from friendships to romantic relationships as the loving inner truth was being revealed and blossomed

I know about the racial tensions, the calls for war, the 12 year old dying in childbirth, the tent cities. I know it's all out there. I also know that peace starts at home, in our hearts and in our personal relationships. And today was a day when we had the opportunity
  • to feel our emotions,
  • to feel love
  • to create peace and blessings at home.

So all in all this was a rose quartz day, a Heart of God through YOUR heart day. Thank you for sharing it with me.

Today Was Love


So we found out what today was made of and that was most definitely love! Thursday will do that to you and connect you to Universal Love most weeks if you let yourself be carried away into it of course. But today was particularly lovely and several friends commented about it on and off line.

Something loving and supportive happened unexpectedly every couple of hours, involving strangers as well as friends from all over the country, some old some new. I learned much and smiled a lot which is good because I am at the end of a rough three weeks.

So I hope you caught the glitter. I do think that we turned a corner yesterday. Relax and enjoy!

The Energy System of a Human Angel

I have no idea what today has in store but I am GLAD yesterday is over!

Of course it was an amazing portal-to-the-heart-of-God day. And I love being 'out there' while still in a body:
  • The floaty, relaxed feeling.
  • The deep love for no good reason, just because I am divine.
  • The angels whispering in my ears, sitting in my heart and stroking my arm all day.

Also yesterday was such a great day for guidance! I had several important questions answered. Some just by wondering and pffffft, there was the answer in my head, words clear as a meditation bell with that deep feeling in my heart of "that's true, that is the way it is". Some through Alice of @ReikiAwakening. (She delivers a very humble, loving, accurate channelled reading to any question for $25 and her readings always give me real peace of mind!)

I went to the dentist's and while I was waiting alone in the room, I could FEEL the angels around me every time I was anxious until I felt completely cradled, physically.

Two physical angels also answered my prayers. One suddenly removed all administrative burden from me for that day. Another drove me around town and supported while I was sorting unpleasant errands.

I am so grateful for that support because the flip side of being a human angel is that floating away with angels all day makes it difficult to remember human linear time: I often forget to go to sleep or to eat on such days. I find it very difficult to use my brain in a linear way, to count money, to return phone calls or emails, to pay bills, to understand the logical steps of a process that I would normally execute easily. If it happens several times in the same month the cumulative effect can be challenging.

Of course I have got used to the pattern over the years. I know now that whenever there is a surge of energy in the planetary awakening I open up to channelling, I change rapidly, my energy system is rewired, again, and I am not so in touch with every day reality for a day or three. It is even harder for the people around me, particularly if they depend on me for anything. Or if they are wired to believe that how I feel may have been caused by their behavior or that I just don't care about myself. Which of course I do: in that light state the body makes very few demands and I am completely at peace.

This ungrounded lighter state is the underbelly of being a great psychic and healer, the stuff we discuss among ourselves and don't normally advertise! But more and more of you are being awakened as healers. So I think it' s important to be honest about the fact that while it is a marvelous and fulfilling calling, being a healer is not all glitter and singing angels. The human part of it can be challenging to manage.

That is why we need to support each other. So what's YOUR story? Leave me a comment and share!
