This one is for people pleasers. A reminder to say what you need to say. In a world where “likes” are a barometer for whether or not we are showing up in an acceptable way, we try to please, attract and impress as many people as we can, and then live in fear that someone won’t approve or respond in the way we had hoped or expected them to. We’ve gotten so good at dividing ourselves into smaller and smaller pieces, that we end up stretched thin, pleasing no one, with an empty tank. Life is way too short to try and please everyone.

Stop people pleasing and say what you need to say; life is too short to try and please everyone in a world where likes determine acceptability.

Say No To People Pleasing & Yes To You!

Prayerfully asking God to give us the courage to face and not to turn away from what is dark and confusing. To let us look upon that we do not understand without scorn or fear or judgment.

Praying for courage to face darkness and confusion without judgment, to love others and see their spirit, and be a light that sees the best in them.

Prayer: Seeing through God's Loving Eyes

When life doesn't go as planned, it can lead to disappointment, fear, anger, sadness, or a range of emotions. You may find yourself clinging defiantly to the way that things "should" have been. This inner conflict between what is and what should have been can keep you emotionally stuck. Releasing the "ideal" you've created allows space for both to coexist and ultimately bring acceptance and peace.

Letting go of expectations brings peace amidst life's uncertainties - acceptance, not resistance.

When Life Doesn't Go As Planned

When we hurt it is because we have allowed someone to affect us negatively; to cause us harm, to feel doubt, fear, insecurity, or discouragement, when really each time that we experience someone's negativity, they are simply showing us their reaction, and their feelings and thoughts in that particular moment. How often do we allow others to hurt us? Your decision must be to step back, to step away from taking on whatever hurts may be directly or indirectly pointed at you. You wouldn't choose to be hurt. You would choose to be love and to feel loved. So begin with this. Become great at this. This is the ability to love yourself and to trust wholeheartedly in your goodness, your infinite power, your truth. with love Namaste!

Don't allow others to hurt you; step back and focus on loving and trusting yourself instead.

Psalm 139 Meditation/Christian Prayer

How tricky our ego can be. She feeds off of fear and scarcity, And leaves pain and suffering in her wake. Her desire is to keep us safe, But in doing so, she keeps us small and imprisoned. And the only way to true freedom, Is to recognize the ego when she appears, understand why she’s there, and let her go. So the intention of today’s meditation is to give you a practice to identify and let go of your ego, so you can continue the never-ending practice of transcending beyond her into a space of connectedness and love with your true self.

Recognize and release the ego's grip on fear and scarcity to find true freedom and connect with your true self in meditation.

We train our mind by what we tell it. What we say to ourselves becomes what we believe. We retrain our mind to believe in our self by holding the feeling first of something that we believe to be true - a positive aspect of our self - so that we can identify what this feeling "feels like". This is the first part of our retraining. We then work with envisioning and feeling successful of whatever we doubt. In this way, we focus on the positive outcome of what we desire instead of the fear or doubt. This meditation is best experienced in its entirety to allow for the full effects of its teachings. Please use this meditation often to anchor your new feelings of confidence and to retrain how you think. Namaste!! with love, dorothy

As we move along the path of awakening and freedom, as we allow our consciousness to expand and our vibration to be raised, we are wise to be very conscious about protecting our consciousness so that we are not pulled down to the lower vibrations of fear, worry, and doubt that is running amuck in the world. In other words, we are wise to use discernment as to who we share our insights and revelations with, and even who we choose to hang out with, so that we may integrate and embody our expansion.
