We are living in some of the most fascinating times ever. Depending on your mindset, they are either the most chaotic and scary times…or the most exciting and exhilarating times.

Chaos normally precedes peace. The chaos is a form of disruption, forcing us to wake up and change our ways. Our world has been on an unsustainable path of destruction.

Fortunately we are collectively waking up and taking action. We are starting to understand that we are all connected and we need to take care of each other, our animals, our environment and our beautiful planet.

We want peace not war. We want healthy, natural food not chemical crap passed off as food. We want loving, supportive relationships not drama and toxic interactions. We want trustworthy, authentic leaders not two faced people leading with a hidden agenda. We want genuine connections to real people not superficial likes and followers.

Let’s look at this from a cosmic level first. Our solar system is moving into an area in our galaxy that has a higher frequency. Schumann’s resonance has been changing drastically since 2015. It had been measured at a steady pace of 7.83 hz since it was first discovered/measured in 1954. In 2015 it started having anomalies, doubling and tripling for short periods of time. These energetic frequencies are increasing both in intensity and time. Much of this can be measured through the electromagnetic frequencies as well as plasma waves. This helps to explain how you may be feeling off or why we see such chaos right now.

In order to change our external world, we must all start from within. I believe we are all being called to do our own inner work. The majority of us are carrying emotional baggage in a cellular level that if affecting our lives today, whether we know this consciously or not, is another thing.

If we consider a micro level, there are many saying now that these energies are changing our DNA from a carbon base to a crystalline base. I haven’t found so much mainstream science on this yet but the idea is certainly interesting. This is why I think we are seeing so many emotions and situations showing up in our own lives during this transition.

There are five steps that can help as we work towards raising our own frequency…

1) Process Emotions

We need to feel our emotions on a conscious level. Don’t stuff them inside and don’t let them rage out of control. Be in the moment, name the emotion and thoroughly feel it so it passes through you. Have compassion for yourself and others if they hurt you because generally hurt people hurt people. When you understand this, you can shift yourself into a place of compassion and understanding. Take responsibility for your emotions and work towards being proactive by responding rather than reactive by being triggered. Only you can do that!

2) Heal Traumas

The emotional baggage we haven’t processed gets stuck on an emotional and cellular level. Over time, these affect our relationships and worse can have a negative impact on our health. When we can heal wounds and traumas, we lighten our load. The best way to heal is through forgiveness, both for others and for you. Forgiving yourself is sometimes the hardest person to forgive but do it anyway. We all make mistakes! The key is to take the lesson from all of those traumas and have a sense of gratitude because it showed you how to be resilient!

3) Ground Yourself

If a storm is coming, you tether in your boat and batten down the hatches, right? The chaos around us is that storm. Spend time in nature, meditate, and practice mindfulness to ground yourself. Practice conscious gratitude and focus on love and things that bring you joy. Educate yourself and be relentless in pursuing the truth. There are certain forces that want you to live in fear. Ignore that and choose love instead. We all have this immense creative power within ourselves—learn to work with it! We are spiritual beings having a human experience. So do what it takes to find your inner peace and then guard it fiercely!

4) Dream Big

Now is more than ever the time for you to manifest your dreams. What is the world YOU want to live in? Focus on that. When we can come together to share a collective dream—you know, something like world peace—then we can create it together! There are 7.7 billion people on the planet today. When we come together, we can solve our problems. There are so many brilliant minds that can create solutions to some of the biggest issues right now. So think about how YOU want to make an impact. And don’t worry about starting small—it all starts with that first step. But keep your vision big in your mind and take actions steps each day to move forward. Use the power of your imagination and don’t be afraid to dream big! The world needs those special talents and gifts that only you have to give.

5) Be Open-Minded

It’s so important in this day and age to stop the judgments and be open-minded. There is so much disinformation and misinformation out there so be vigilant to find the truth out for yourself. Research, talk to others with curiosity and openness rather than being rigid or getting triggered, feel into what feels right to you. Our bodies are amazing in giving us information when we know how to listen to it and trust our gut or intuition. Know that it is OK to agree to disagree and choose not be enemies. Look for what we have in common and build each other up instead. This will go a long way in building solid relationships with others.

By working on these five steps, it will help prepare you and make this global shift easier for you to handle. We all have our own part to contribute. Let’s do this together and create the wonderful world we know we can!

We are in some dire need for collective healing all over this planet. There has been so much pain coming to the surface and so many stuffed emotions rearing their ugly little heads. Things we didn’t want to feel again.

According to scientific research, we store traumas in our cells. We can even carry our ancestor’s traumas in our DNA. The more aware we are of this, the more proactively we can work to heal ourselves, and our world.

When we have worked through our emotions, the stories we carry no longer have an emotional charge. I have felt this in my own life several times. I’ve stuffed away painful situations, hoping to never see them again, only to have it surface years later in unforeseen circumstances. And I’ve worked hard to break the patterns of pain, to try and fully heal, so that I don’t have to experience something again. It takes courage and a very conscious effort to do this “inner work.”

Sometimes it may feel like there are dark forces attacking or negative energies behind what is happening in your life. It knocks you down hard. And you have to pick yourself up again, shake it off, and keep moving forward. You may even reach a point that you just want to scream a big F you! You will NOT be held back! You are a force for good and of the light!

We are collectively experiencing a revelation–a bright light of truth shining on our global pain. It is bringing to surface those hidden emotions that we haven’t wanted to deal with, showing corruption and horrific events that we didn’t even know were possible.

The #MeToo movement has touched so many lives, both with women and men. People who have been hurt and abused are speaking out and this is good. I can tell you that 100% of women I know have all experienced abuse from men at one point in their lives. And I know a lot of men as well who are telling their stories.

We need to collectively take a stand and say NO MORE!

We will not tolerate any sort of abuse, any sort of misconduct, any sort of sexual inappropriateness, and certainly not any sort of physical, mental, emotional, and even spiritual abuse. From anyone! Or any institution!

We also need to dig for the truth. There are things happening in our world right now that are happening on so many levels. Many of the current affairs mean one thing on the surface and almost the complete opposite underneath the rhetoric and propaganda.

I do believe that the TRUTH will set us free! Be open-minded to having your beliefs rocked and shaken to the core.

I remember reading a term “religious abuse” in a book a decade ago for the first time. We are seeing how just how many “trusted” people in all of our institutions, whether they are religious, political, educational, media, business, etc, have used their power inappropriately.

No more.

The majority of people on this planet are good. They love their families and want peace. And the scariest thing of all for the evil ones is that we come together. They try to divide us through race, beliefs, politics, education, culture, and in so many ways. We the people are rising above this. We ARE coming together. We are feeling our pain and it’s moving us to action! It IS happening.

So let’s continue to have intelligent conversations. Authentic dialogues. Let’s support each other. Have compassion and empathy for each other on this journey we call life.

Because life has been painful. For ALL of us in one way or another.

And we can make a conscious choice to rise above it. To use that pain to fuel our passion and make a positive difference.

To connect us to each other, heart to heart. And to heal. To love one another.

And to decide that we are better than the pain.

We are stronger, wiser, and more resilient.

Because in the end, it comes down to: did we live our lives fully? Did we give more love and support? Did we follow our hearts? Did we do good in the world? Did we make a positive impact?

That’s what we’ll be remembered for and that is how we will celebrate our lives!

Make the conscious choice to be empowered and choose love over fear. Each and every time! We can do this!
