Don’t tell me something won’t work that’s working for me! If you would rather listen instead of read, play the audio:
I rarely, if ever, tell people something won’t work because I see life as limitless, unbounded, always growing and evolving, and I believe in limitless Omniscience. I don’t think there’s any such things as false hope because ANY and ALL hope is, well, HOPE! When I’m watching an interview and hear someone say something can’t be done or someone can’t heal or recover from some illness, I turn them OFF! Ha! Because I believe in possibilities! And nothing is gonna break my stride (remember that song?), nobody’s gonna slow me down.
I encourage everyone to do their own research, which is why I spent 13 years writing the original Take It Upon Yourself to Live a Wholly Vibrant Life book (first published in 2018), and the doctors who teach the Circadian Flow course have encouraged us to do our own research too.
One example
A well-meaning friend tried to tell me this new company I’m involved with is a scam. One even wrote to tell me she’d tried the fat loss pill (called, Z*nith–some people simply call it ‘Z’) and didn’t know that the original formulation was different than what it is today—because this new company found an issue with the capsules and sought to improve them. The supplement still worked though. They may not have worked for my friend, but they are working for me.
Excuses
Even if you use the research as an excuse not to try the supplements for yourself, you may want to try the brain health headset. It’s the reason I chose to work with Awak*nd (over another company I had joined at the same time). Plus, though the other company’s products worked they tasted terrible (to me). I actually liked the people more within Awak*nd too—the woman who signed me to the other company was always pushing me! I can’t take “pushy.” (Replaced a letter within the product/company names with an * to abide by the company’s corporate compliance policy.)
Biology of Belief
Dr Bruce Lipton tells the story of believers drinking strictnine and not dying so he doesn’t tell people XYZ won’t work but rather points us back to our own intention as to why we attracted it! I experienced a big Aha moment with him last Saturday in his community when I asked him about the headset–if he thought there was something (as in healing effects) of its red and blue lights. He reminded me that it had been MY INTENTION that had brought the information (of the company and their headset) TO ME! Though I had bought it for my husband, I was using it more! My intention to help my husband actually brought something to myself that would help ME! Ha!
So, here I sit with this now, today, and realize that for me, this has a LOT of VALUE. Mmm yes, so don’t tell me something won’t work that’s working for me.
I’m here to help expand our consciousness, GROW our souls, and live in peace–honoring our sacred connections. I’m always examining the past as a means to improve our future.

This is a test. I am going to try something today that I’ve never done before. So, let’s see how it goes. Okay? If you would rather listen instead of read, play the audio:
As you know, from reading this blog for a while, well, actually let me back up years ago.
I never published anything from anybody else. There were no shared posts on SheilaMurrey.net or https://takeituponyourself.wordpress.com. You know? How ever you found this site, there was never anyone else writing here-it was all me, right? It wasn’t an ego thing, it was just, I just started the blog. And I didn’t even understand what blogging was about. And I didn’t understand the connections with the community or sharing other people’s posts or how to go about doing it.
One day I just read something–a year or two ago, I guess it’s been a couple of years maybe that I’ve been posting shared posts here on this site. And so I recognize that would be a beautiful way for me to share what I am reading what I enjoy and what I want to then turn around and share with you. I know there are very various ways to do that though. I can share with a link and I have done that, as you saw with my little “failed experiment” now–with the succulents. On the succulent posts, I linked back to the laid-back gardener to his site (to the father’s site that the son now runs). Anyway, two of the succulents are alive. I don’t remember how many ordered but that’s a spiral thought. I won’t go there.
The point of this article is to try this little test because I have been posting several shared posts from Silver Birch.
Okay, these are profound spiritual teachings (from Silver Birch). I feel most of them I’ve read. I follow and read these posts religiously. Pun intended. I read these posts almost every night before I’m falling asleep. I typically do that for a couple of reasons. 1) raise my vibration, 2) relax me, and also, of course, 3) continue my learning.
I never feel we get the learning done, and I learn something every day. That’s my preface to what I’m about to say.
So, the other night, and I must admit here I’ve been lazy. I haven’t been doing a lot of speaking into Otter and providing you with my own posts for a while because I’ve been very busy. The busiest probably I’ve ever been working 10 and 12-hour days and several weekends in a row (for my day job). So I’ve had no time. No, I’ve absolutely had no time for my blog and for sharing things that have come up with you all. I apologize for that.
But to keep some momentum going on the blog, I have recently shared many ‘shared posts’ from others. And I humbly thank those authors for writing such profound and beautiful posts. I’ve been reading their posts at night to fall asleep too. I thought oh, I need to just quickly share this and all I have to do is add my category. Right? And add my hashtags for the SEO.
So, back to Silver Birch. And I apologize in advance if anybody takes this wrong but the thought that came to me was after posting this most recent one about the Great White Spirit, first of all, I don’t judge the colors black or white. And this is about a lot of different things when you think about black smoke, white smoke, black magic white magic, you know, there are lots of I mean, you know, we could sit here for days, weeks, probably months, and talk about the benefits or the deterrents of using the words black and white to describe anything.
So when it (this post) said Great White Spirit, I almost didn’t share the post because I had that feeling that somebody might judge it by thinking, “Oh, they’re calling God white now”, and I’m certainly not. I don’t think I ever have! I dismissed that idea when I was a chil–that God was this white man, or being, a person sitting up in the sky with the long white beard, so many years ago when I heard Oprah share on her show that she had “taken God out of the box” and (she) didn’t think of him as the old man in the clouds with the white beard and the booming voice and those kinds of things she had heard in church as a child right or from having been raised in a church. So she rejected (I don’t know if that’s still her feeling), and that aligned for me at that time and ever since. I still follow that as a mantra almost a belief in me that God isn’t this–not that God couldn’t be– but I didn’t see God as the old man or white man or any color man or a man at all–in the clouds with the white beard and a booming voice or… Why do we even have to say white beard?
Anyway, I think you get the idea. You get my drift, hopefully. If I’m expressing myself as thoroughly as I can. I see the Great White Spirit as I think they use white, I don’t know what they meant, but, it’s my interpretation of what I read from Silver Birch that they use the word, white, in this usage as to mean a white light, golden light–the highest vibration there is. And as you also all know, from if you’ve read almost any of my blog posts, I use the term Omniscience for God because I don’t want to get into this nitty-gritty, picky, bitchy, you know, minuscule in the weeds conversations about who or what God is because God is Omniscience.
Every time I sit in meditation or channel or whatever it is that I do, and however the information comes to me, it is always of this essence or this profound-ness. And this inability to put words around (ineffable) expression or idea of God that is not limited, you know? So I mean, I’ve even sometimes called God the Limitless! Friends of mine use these terms like the all that isness and all that is and you know, that that type of thing, and I’m much more aligned with that as a term for God than the three in one or the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. I don’t deny those labels, but I just see them as limiting and I see them as a means to divide us, right? It means to have people sit around and poke at you because that’s what the human mind does.
The human mind loves to organize and sort of poke around and add labels to all kinds of stuff. So because we’re in our humaneness, because we are in a human form, we are limited. I mean, I don’t like to focus on my limitations. And my dad even once told me you know that I’m not limited, which was a shock to me because I always felt like I was limited. But I do agree that as a human form we are limited. You know, even the strongest man can’t lift the heavy stones at Stonehenge. So there are human limitations, right?
One of those limitations is when we read the article I shared about the Great White Spirit. If we are in a place in and of our own self, where we are either racist or we are judging others for being racist (our mind could go there and get us stuck in judging). Whichever flip side of that coin you’re on, picture in your mind, the yin and yang symbol–the black and the white, so that I’m not judging anyone.
I want to be very clear about this.
You’re always deciding based on your filter, right? So this judging of the word, white, is you coming out of you. You the observer. You are seeing a term like that. And if you’ve had a negative experience with a Great White Spirit, or you would prefer to put the label Great Black Spirit or Great Violet Flame, or other (I invite you to) substitute the word, white, with another word and try not to get hung up on the term. That’s the essence of what I’m getting at here. Because when you do, then you’ve got to then look inward and go, Why are you upset about that? And then that requires a whole other conversation because again, it’s the yin and yang–are you the racist? Or is that person who said that term, the racist?
I, for one, feel a lot more loving and I feel like I’m freer and more at ease… see? I took a breath there. I’m much more at ease when I think about the fact that I don’t have to be judging. I don’t have to put the label on. I can go back to Omniscience I can go back to my breath, I can go back to you know, loving all mankind, that kind of thing. I can raise my vibration to that higher vibe. And I can get myself out of the ego mind and out of the judgment mind and even the discerning mind if you will. Because believe me, we are great at putting lots of labels on judgment too and I get that we don’t have to walk out in front of the speeding train. I get that there’s a purpose to discernment.
Okay, we don’t have to put ourselves in a bad place. But we do it all the time. Sometimes we do it because we’re just ignorant or I don’t want to say we’re stupid. Okay. I don’t think anybody’s stupid. I think we’re ignorant sometimes of situations and we put ourselves in a bad situation or a harmful place. I’ll use the word harmful instead of bad. Again, I’m watching my language. I do that on purpose for me–for my growth. I’m not just doing it because I’m writing or speaking this blog. But I just really wanted in love to put this thought out there for you all. Not just for those that have commented or made a comment in the future. I do hesitate to share the silver birch teachings that mentioned the Great White Spirit, but I do think there’s a time and a place that it’s appropriate and apparently, it was useful. For me and perhaps for others, for me to share that and put it out there so that it would then, in turn, be the catalyst for this teaching.
I’m using this as a teaching for myself, not just that I’m preaching or teaching to any of you. You are ALL dear teachers to me. I love this blogging community. And I learned so much from all of you. And I don’t know what else to say, except if I could hug you I would I’ve met so many wonderful people in this blogging community, I mean, and I, I do read your posts, and sometimes I read them quickly. I admit it. I’m skimming, but I look for the highlights and I look for the things that align with my soul and make me feel really good about the world because there’s a lot in the world that we could feel crappy about right? But that’s not what I don’t I don’t believe that’s why I’m here and I don’t believe that’s why we’re together, reading each other’s blog posts and sharing from our hearts.
So with love, humility, kindness, and the utmost compassion that I can muster. I thank you for your time and for listening to this and reading my posts. I’m very utterly and extremely grateful to each of you.
Now before I close, what I was going to do is I am going to share a link in this post to the spiritualtruthfoundation.org which talks about whose Silver Birch was and there’s even a drawing of the personage of Silver Birch who the voice was and was come through, and the spirit that was coming through known as Silver Birch was. And supposedly, you know, I mean everything I should caveat with “supposedly” as it is said the teachings were from a Native American man. So, there you go. (Was he racist?)
I never really dug that deep to read all of this before though about Silver Birch and as I’m sitting here working, waiting for more work as I continue to work on a Saturday, but this site talks about who Silver Birch was. A psychic artist depicts him as a serious-looking Native American Indian with a single feather and compassionate eyes and that just, you know, that I guess it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy. I don’t know how else to describe it. I get the GodBumps! Yes.
To any of you wondering about that. I was raised to be a very serious person. And, I’ve discovered that I’m an empath. So I feel a lot of when you do comment and you do say things I feel it. I’ve worked my whole life to be very hard to not take things personally right? But I’ve always argued that point and said that I’m a person. And while words aren’t supposed to hurt I know they do. I know they do sometimes when people use hurtful words. And just as my darker-complected friends and family can tell you certain words still hurt them. And they hurt me because they hurt them. And certain words hurt me. Especially when someone emails them directly at me right Sheila, you did blah blah, blah. You know you’re a bit or you’re you know pick one, I don’t know. But a negative character-type assassination word, right? If someone were to call me that it would hurt me because I would take that word in and I would be questioning myself. Is that true? Is that me? Maybe it is in some aspects, right? I don’t want to even admit that most of the time. But yeah, maybe that is true in some instances. And that’s why we have situations right.
We were all different people in different situations. I mean, I’ve been the crudest of people in some situations. But I’ve been an angel in other situations. I take personal responsibility for that. I do my best to be better every day than I was before and to grow. But I am fallible, I make mistakes. And I think we all do. I fall back on the old saying of “nobody’s perfect.” And the more I meditate and as you know, as I’ve written about this, I don’t believe in Perfection. I just don’t believe in it. I don’t think anything’s perfect. I mean, you know trees get mold on them. The ocean has bad days, right? It produces tsunamis, but it’s beautiful to look at most of the time when you go to the beach.
So yeah, I mean, I think everything changes and there are situations in which we’re, we’re at our best and sometimes we’re not at our best. So that’s when we give ourselves grace. I mean, we can choose not to and be really hard on ourselves. But if we want to take it easier, and live life in peace and calm and ease and less triggered, you know, then let’s, let’s do that. If, if at all possible we can, let’s just breathe and, and give ourselves grace. We all learn at differing rates of speed. I say that a lot and I mean it. And We Are ALL Connected. This is me on this workaholic Saturday and Sunday. But this will end Monday when the proposal is submitted, so I’m excited about that. I’m seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. And there’s that word again. Right? All right. Again, thank you. Peace and blessings.

Integrating the Spirals to ease suffering
My online Zoom video course, Integrating the Spirals is helpful now more than ever because I know people are suffering. (Let me know if you’re interested in the Integrating the Spirals course.)
As an empath I want to help ease suffering and raise hope. I want to uplift others and raise our collective vibrations and consciousness. I teach breath work and meditation so we appreciate the value of Detachment. We till our inner soil with our breath and that offers us peace and calm. Meditation is an easy way to Connect us with spirit, higher selves, Omniscience God, and receive personal guidance.

The Holy Bible says “Fear not” or some equivalent of that idea between 300-365 times, depending on the translation. And as well, “I am with you.” So, I give you this, not out of fear, but out of acknowledgment that I consider us ALL brothers and sisters. And I desire that you rise above the “programming” should you so choose, study and research the following. For there are those in power who attempt to control us, and I want you to take note of some important indicators to watch and increase your awareness, and perhaps even, prepare.
Fear Not.
It may be a good time to know a “prepper.” I know you’ve made fun of your prepper friends before, but even if you don’t want to prep, it may be wise and it may ease any fear you already have, to make a plan.
We all know knowledge brings Power and great power comes great responsibility. The 1% know a lot they’re not going to share. I’m not in the 1%, but I read a lot, watch movies, and analyze.
Thus, here are the 5 things I think are of great importance for you to watch for (stay Aware of) in the coming weeks, months, and years–if it all lasts that long, not to be all doom and gloom, but it all hinges on Movement/Staying Put and Money/Resources.
You can’t control the prices of commodities or their availability: water, gas/fuel, perishables, and it should go without saying but I’ll add it anyway for those so “programmed,” paper products such as toilet paper. Rising fuel costs may hamper travel and shipment of goods.
You can’t work at certain companies (yes, already) without having the certain vaccine (I’m sure I don’t have to name them). Look at the job listings, many companies say you must comply with their vaccine policy. Keep watch on what social programs (aka food stamps, social security checks, and more) get tied to a vaccine policy. This may limit your income.
Watch what’s going on with Money. Do you notice what the large financial institutions and insurance companies are doing? Will they cover (pay or reimburse you) for your loved ones funeral expenses? Will your family receive your life insurance if you die of something they deem you could have prevented by taking a vaccine? What’s the deal with crypto currencies? Why is the US dollar losing its value? (Internet search “US dollar losing value”, “Central banks”, and Forex). You can’t borrow money on credit, buy a house, or even get a bank account without a good credit score and that’s been a topic (who controls the major credit bureaus) that I’ve been talking about with friends and family for YEARS. Watch what the credit bureaus are doing.
You can’t do whatever you want on your own land. We all know about imminent domain, property taxes, Home Owner Association and deed restrictions, and city/county ordinances. Just because you buy something, doesn’t mean you actually “own” it and can do whatever you like. You can’t just dig anywhere to bury a 55 gallon drum or bury a body. Even if you don’t add public utilities to your land, you must pay taxes and adhere to various ordinances.
In regard to Movement, (and circling back to fuel prices) one is now becoming very limited on where they can go. What countries are allowing you in or out? Where can you enter without some kind of documentation? Some friends have told us they couldn’t enter a restaurant in a city without showing some sort of medical “proof.” Another friend can’t sell their house because they can’t buy another with skyrocketing housing prices (in Florida USA). I say, stay put in the home you’ve been paying for all these years and never got to spend as much time in, as you were always leaving it to “go to work.” But some feel they need to travel. Then the question becomes, what price will you pay to travel, even up to and including sacrificing yourSelf to an injection? I said not to the Zika virus vaccine when I had the opportunity to hike through the jungle in Mexico a few years back to see a particular ruin that was important to me. Everyone has to draw the line somewhere for themselves.
Obviously, if you’ve reached my blog site, you know above all else I teach (and preach) personal responsibility and choice. So, if you are able (not hospitalized or otherwise institutionalized) you have the supreme choice over what is and is NOT injected into your body. I didn’t add injections to the list because of all the debate that exists on that topic. But it stands to reason that the only real control you have over anything is what you allow to be put into your body.
You are the only one who can control how you feel, and when you take back that power, then you become FREE! –Nathan Crane
I know it can seem fairly bleak. I didn’t intend to go too far down the rabbit hole. But I wanted to put something out to offer the flip side of all the programming that’s been going on. I’m just one educated person who pays attention. And if I can see through the narrative, maybe you can too.
Good luck. (And that’s when preparation meets opportunity, you know that, right?)

My friends have asked me many times, “How did you get that job”? I’ve told them some of these things, but maybe not all, so I am beginning a list (I’ll update it) of all my ladder climbing tips.
Also, how can you “play by the rules“, if you don’t know what the rules are?
Like me, you may have read other articles on this topic that have offered “x number of ways to get the job you want” or some other similar titles.
Most already know we must:
Know about the job (understand what the new job may entail)
Prepare a winning keyword-friendly resume (to get it by the automatic resume robots)
Rehearse and visual yourself doing great at the interview (when you get one)
The interview:
Dress appropriately and professionally for the interview
Ask intelligent and open-ended questions (you also want to interview your potential new boss)
Do NOT ask personal questions
Do NOT ask about office politics, vacation accrual, or salary
If you have notes, or a laptop – open them up and be ready to refer to them or show samples of your work (if asked or if you feel stumped with a question)
Smile and show enthusiasm for the role (people hire people they like)
But I’m not going to talk about those old, and well worn topics because you should already know those (if not, google those to find out more).
Teamwork and Integrity matters
Here are my tips:
Always be on time to work at your current job. If there is a valid reason, state it succinctly. No one wants to hear excuses.
If you are going to be late, call, text, and email your boss. Don’t rely on one method of communication to relay this very important information. If you know you are the type of person who is often late or out of office be sure to discuss this with your supervisor up front and determine how he / she would like to be notified.
Not showing up for work is a sign of disrespect and people will never respect you, if you display disrespect. I have worked with people who have been fired for not coming in to work.
Be on time for meetings. No manager wants to wait around for you to begin his / her meeting. It’s also disrespectful and disruptive to the group when you arrive late to a meeting, especially a weekly meeting, or one that has been pre-arranged and on your calendar.
Do critically acclaimed outstanding work at your current job. If you’re the only one at your position then you already know why this tip is key. Build a strong relationship with your boss, and their management (whenever possible). If you work on a team, read the next section about teamwork and why it matters.
Always be in learning mode – be the first to know as much as you can about the new software the company is rolling out.
Raise your hand – be first to volunteer for special projects, lead a new team, or take the project no one else wants. Many people do not want to speak up or raise their hand first, so if you do, your supervisor will LOVE it! Brownie points? Yes, absolutely! Why not? Don’t listen to any lazy or uncaring people if they tell you otherwise. They aren’t feeding / housing your family! There will come a day when your superior will give you a glowing recommendation or promotion, and that’s your goal (it’s why you’re reading this) right?
Always happily accept direction from your boss with a gleam in your eye! Believe it or not, many managers dislike having to “tell you what to do” so, when they come to you with a request, listen attentively, take notes if you need to, ask for clarification if needed, or prioritization if you’re already swamped, but always be eager for something else to do!
Work at an accurate reasonable speed – employers understand that you cannot work safely or with quality at break-neck speed, but when something has been designated a high priority you should definitely move with a sense of urgency to complete the task to your best ability.
Why teamwork matters
Back when I was in college, it really irritated me when one or more people on my project team would slack – not do their fair share of the project work. I’d step up and do more because of my super responsible nature so we could get a high grade. I learned early on the true value of teamwork and team-building.
At work when a team forms, I have experienced team dynamics that follow the “forming, storming, norming, and performing” model credited to Bruce Tuckman in 1965. You can visit wikipedia or buy books about it.
First, the boss may assign several disparate people a goal to complete a project. A team forms, but because you don’t know each other, you encounter a period of ice-breaking and posturing. You may not have a choice over who participates on the team.
The more the team comes together to get the project underway, the group will storm – meaning some people will want to lead, cause conflict, be negative, point out potential issues, or demand respect that has yet to be earned. Arguments and miscommunication occur during the storming phase. Members will pick sides. One or more may decide it’s okay to slack. The boss may need to step back in during the storming phase. When they don’t, it can take the team much longer to get their “ducks in a row” (so to speak).
When the energy of the team evens out and any or all bickering subsides, the team will be in the normal phase and stuff will flow easier. The ebb and flow of cooperation will be experienced by all of the teammates. Communication will improve between all members. Team members may even become friends. The boss doesn’t have to step in much because he / she can direct one team member to effectively communicate the request to the team and trust the team will receive the information and act on it appropriately.
When the work is evenly distributed and stuff is getting done in a timely fashion, the team will be in the performing mode. You feel it when you’re in a goodrhythm and mutual respect and admiration is occurring. It’s exciting! A performing team is unstoppable! Results will be achieved and the team will exude confidence and pride in their accomplishments.
Unfortunately, some people never quite get the whole teamwork attitude though. You’ll need to have a lot of patience as long as these folks remain on your team. It would benefit everyone on the team, and within the company as well, if they’d learn how much teamwork matters.
When team members support each other, they’ll often graciously provide references to individuals within the group when the time comes for one or more folks to move on to leadership roles within the organization, or to a position with another institution or company. A job reference is the ultimate professional compliment! You’ll need three references for your next job and recruiters only want recent references, not someone you did an outstanding job for five or more years ago.

To live a blessed, blissful, joyous, and happy life, to me, means living life in balance, squeezing all the juice out of life in the present moment while aware and conscious of God, (Source, Holy Spirit, Energy, Creator), the Divine Presence that is all around and through us. I refer to God as, Omniscience.
My work
My “work” (day job) is not just what I do Monday through Friday each week to earn a paycheck. My job provides me the time to learn how things work, including how I respond to challenges and stress. My work environment often causes me to consciously acknowledge how energy works because I find many contrasts there!
❤️🦋🌀
My main and utmost job though, is to myself. To grow my inner being, true nature. I work on mySelf on spiritual and energetic levels.
God Bumps
I focus as Spirit leads me, where I feel the internal bodily sensation of “God Bumps” (thrill bumps, chills, tingles, and ripple-like feelings).
The more I feel these God Bumps (or GodBumps) the more that sensation occurs whenever I meet, have a conversation with, or sit in the presence of other beings who are also on a path of enlightenment.
God Bumps are my way of describing how “aligned energy” feels, as it resonates within my body. Typically, this “energy alignment” brings me to the present moment, to be conscious of the fact that I am a spiritual being (with a soul), having an earthly experience.
I seek out (and visit again and again) the people and places, that cause me to feel God Bumps. I believe I feel these sensations because I am an empath. I actuallyfeelit, when I make a soul connection with someone. I also blog (write) about it!Click here for my other articles.
Not above or below
I’ve always held a belief that no one is more worthy–of spiritual enlightenment, fame, a huge salary, or any other so-called measure of success–than anyone else. More is going on.
I’ve always felt some sort of injustice, while reading about the huge salaries and bonuses some people receive, while many others are barely making ends meet. Do some people really work harder, smarter, than the rest of us? Clearly different classes of people have always existed through history. A few who live very well, while many thousands, even millions subsist.
Also, I have prayed for the upliftment of religious leaders caught up in scandalous activities. Not that everyone who is a spiritual leader or teacher is perfect (save one), but I hold such leaders to a higher standard – and I think many of us feel that way.
Jesus – The Christ
Speaking of the perfect one, I was brought to the knowledge of our Holy savior, Christ Jesus of Nazareth when I was young. My mother taught me of Jesus’ perfection as He was/is God made flesh. I am of the mind that God made Jesus to show us the true way of enlightenment – and how we are all energy.
Jesus did not look upon illness or dis-ease, He saw us in our whole (Holy) state of being. That is so when you study of His many miracles. He asked the lame to “take up thy bed and walk” because the man had to believe he COULD walk – before being able TO walk! Jesus already knew the man COULD walk, that walking was within the man’s ability. Jesus healed the woman (or helped her to experience her healing) who merely touched His garment because she reached out to Him by faith. Remember the Holy scriptures tell us that Jesus said, “your faith has made you whole.”
Jesus came to show us, teach us, of our inner Holy/wholly state, (our divinity) – but sadly many people still do not “get it.” That is why He said, “Many will come in My name, but deny the power thereof.” Power = energy.
Energy
Energy separates us from the inanimate objects man creates. We cannot breathe life / energy into anything we make.
Our babies get their Spirit, energy, breath from God, Divine Source. God breathes and works through us and all living things.
Earning and Worthiness
We are all inherently worthy to have our needs met – even our desires.
If one person can somehow manage to “earn” a billion dollars, then others must also be capable. If one person is able to feed millions, others must also be able. At least the possibility of attaining our desire is possible.
I believe we have a great responsibility. Not only to take care of ourselves so we can help others, but to acknowledge our connectedness. We can attain wonderful health. We can attain wealth – understanding that wealth means different things to people.
I know some will not receive my words so well, because they believe some have more advantages, are stronger, more driven, or smarter than others, but that is really coming from a lack mentality. I believe all have the potential to succeed in life, even those who are told they have some sort of disability. We are only limited by our thoughts and imagination. We are limited when we do not understand, do not know, that it’s ALL energy.
We are Energy. Every living thing on this planet has energy running through it.
Examples
Once at Disney I was asked “what is innovation”? At the time all I could think of was, it’s the entire scope, big picture – larger than any one invention. I wasn’t complete in my answer.
Innovation is taking other things, and putting them together in new ways.
We are innovations – energy building blocks put together in different ways, we look different and speak different languages, believe different things, but the common thread among us is the foundational component of ENERGY. So in this very magical way – we are all connected and able to help, sustain, and heal each other. We are called to recognize and honor this fundamental knowing.
I also worked with a lovely gal who reminded me to use the essential oils that I had. The oils had helped me so much in 2005 to release asthma from my body, and because they aren’t processed through the liver, one can heal without putting a load on that crucial organ.
If you have difficulty letting go, work to heal your liver, as it is a storage place for anger, resentment, bitterness, hatred, jealousy, envy, addictions, and a host of destructive feelings.
I learned to place a drop of Release oil blend on my belly to ease stored emotions from the liver. Of course, drinking half your body weight in ounces of pure water daily and doing a liver cleanse is helpful too.
My Calling and True Nature
I believe working with Energy is my true nature, my calling.
Energy is fully functioning, omnipresent, and omniscient in our being. Dis-ease is when we disconnect (for whatever reason) from it.
With every breath, God. With every heartbeat God. Pray without ceasing. The best prayer you could ever say is: “Thank You.”
The reason I love “laying on of hands”, and other healing energy work, is because it honors and places our Creator, Source, God as our supreme healer. We put our ego aside and ourselves in neutral–healing intentions unattached to the outcome.
I worship God when I pray or in other ways, work to assist others in the health and healing of their bodies. This is why my quest is to learn more about energy healing and resonant frequencies. Ever on the look out for how I can better assist others.
The most wonderful masterful healers I have discovered include (yet not limited to):
Dr. Bauduin (passed away) but had done tremendous natural healing work at Madeira Beach Center for Natural Medicine
My daily mission is: to consistently and joyfully manage the contrast between the things that frustrate me, (which cause me to ask for improvements in my spiritual, yet earthbound experience), and reach for better feeling thoughts. Doing so assists me in keeping my body at ease to receive the divine blessings God has in store for me (which, Jesus came to show as our birthright).
In other words: To be joyfully aware of LIMITLESS, Filling-All-Space, Creator Omniscience in every present moment.
To me, this is the sum total of living a blessed, blissful, joyous, and happy life – everyday, no matter the circumstances.
Always remember we walk by faith. Conscious in every present moment. We walk in Light and are never alone. We are all connected.
Namaste and love,
Sheila
