Know that the spirit of all those who have come before you unite and support you in being bold and speaking out If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor.
― Desmond Tutu
Iam a black woman, living in America, and it’s beyond painful that I need to continue to address racism and explain WHY it is so
harmful and inhumane. Racism is the cancer that has plagued this country since 1619 when the very first settlers brought with them enslaved African souls. It is our collective cancer; that over the decades we treat just enough so it doesn’t kill us until we go back to smoking those cigarettes which caused it in the first place. Yet
it grows and although it has not killed America it has murdered our founding principles and executed many of its citizens.
Yet, here we stand in 2020, the year whose number supposedly
represents perfect clarity of vision; back where we started… or as many people of color see it, where we have always been. What can you do about this, now, to help shift the flow of energy once and for all? Leverage your privilege and power by SPEAKING YOUR TRUTH.
Do not wait any longer. Trust me, whatever you have been afraid of losing by speaking out has already been lost, or was never possessed by those you can serve.
Welcome to the revolution my brothers and sisters– we have been
waiting for you. Together we can create a better nation. The time is NOW.
3 Easy Steps to Speaking Your Truth (AKA Joining the Revolution):
1.
Awareness. Anytime you feel stifled or hesitant to respond to a comment—it means you’re blocking your voice and giving your power over to others (doing what you think is expected at the expense of your wellbeing). STOP. TAKE 3 deep breaths. IMAGINE the relief you will feel once you speak up. Then… say what you need to say.
2.
Just Do It – You are Uplifted by the Universe. Know that the
spirit of all those who have come before you unite and support you in being bold and speaking out. Every time you speak your truth it gets easier and your throat chakra will strengthen.
3.
Trust Your Intuition. Your higher self will guide you and let you
know when it’s time. PAY ATTENTION. Sometimes this voice is
only a whisper in your mind; or a sensation in your body urging you to act. LISTEN… to others involved in the conversation.
Understanding their perspective will guide you in how best to use your voice to raise the vibration and enter the dialogue from a place of love and compassion.
Speaking your truth isn’t always easy. It’s a skill that needs to learned and practiced. Now is the time. I look forward to feeling your collective contributions to the cause.

What if there was a way to have compassion for others without feeling depleted ourselves?
Compassion isn’t about feeling other people’s emotions and transmuting it for them. It’s not even about holding the space for them. It is not our job to feel other people’s emotional turmoil. That is their responsibility. It’s possible to have compassion by listening, sharing wisdom and allowing them to experience their own emotions. Many of us have had multiple traumatic experiences that we have worked through. We have been in the trenches; we have felt our emotions. We’ve already been there, and we don’t need to go back there again. Of course, when our own emotions come up, we feel them.
It’s time for us to experience the results of our own hard work. We can show others how to have inner peace no matter what is going on around us. We can now shift from being a Lightworker to being a Wayshower.

Pets, a Pandemic, and YOU
This is a reminder that the pandemic impacted your pets deeply. During stay-at-home orders, depending on your circumstances, you may have found yourself anxious, worried, angry, or cooped up and bored. Some, alternatively, realized
their lives were artificially busy, and have experienced deeper
connections with their immediate family. As we re-enter the world, it is good to note that as varied as your own reactions have been, your companion animals have just gone through a fairly big change as well, and will need help adjusting.
Some clients say they have discovered a deeper bond with their companion animals. At our home, we live with a cat who was once semi-feral. She loves us, but has needed a lot of personal space. Ironically, our absolute 24-hours-at-home routine has

changed her tremendously. She loves helping my 12-year-old do his homework daily, sitting sentinel on his bed for hours while he works, and has become snuggly, and even asks for petting. Other pets, especially the territorial ones, may have acted a little stressed out if your home felt crowded. One dog told me he felt he had to patrol too much, checking on too many people. Another terrier mix started nipping everyone to feel in control of a space that used to be his alone for eight hours a day. Although these behaviors need to be reined in, understand that they were trying to process your stress as well as your own. Try to catch them being good, and re-establish routines and even training for dogs, if you have an animal who tries to be in charge. For the pets plagued with separation anxiety, reentry could be very hard, because they felt so secure with you around so much more. It is very important to create routines, focused attention (10 minutes a day just with them), and a lot of exercise to tire them out. If your companion animal is confused by the changes the pandemic has wrought in your home, you I am made of sunshine, giggles and farts. can book a 30-minute session at www.petseyeview. com.

In a time of global crisis where people are forced to live in isolation and separation, where fear has gripped you are about to do a meditation for them in which you will be sending them love (or bringing them into your heart), By Dr. Joe Dispenza many people and weakened their immune systems, I had the thought: It is impossible to quarantine love? And what is love? It’s the intangible, ineffable, non-local, transcendent engine of connection that bridges our humanity with our divinity. So with the idea of spreading and
amplifying the frequency of love around the world, we
created the GOLOV-20 campaign.
Research performed at our workshops shows that when we feel elevated emotions like love and gratitude, by sustaining such an elevated state for 15-20 minutes day, we release chemicals in our immune system called antibodies. Antibodies are chemical proteins in our blood that fight foreign invaders such as bacteria and viruses.
In addition, our research (along with research from other cutting-edge organizations such as the HeartMath Institute) also shows that when a group of people come together in heart-centered emotions such as love or gratitude and direct the intention of that elevated emotion towards another person, they can actually produce a non-local effect on that person’s autonomic nervous system. In the process, the person receiving the love becomes entrained to that higher frequency and their heart responds to love—from a distance. So GOLOV-20 was created upon the idea that we could make a difference in people’s lives by producing a mass affection—one person at a time. My secondary idea was to teach people that when they are doing this work and opening their hearts, feeling love isn’t as hard as they think it is.
The GOLOV-20 process was quite simple. Think of a person you want to send love to, and then reach out to them either via text, video or audio message, or even in a phone call. In that interaction, let them know why you love them or how they have inspired you. Then tell them and just ask them to be open to receiving love (we provide a guided meditation at drjoedispenza.com). The act of
expressing love naturally moves energy and causes both participants to feel love.
Our goal was to infect/affect 500,000 people with love. Because we have such an impressive, heart-centered, engaged global community, the campaign swept across the world and was translated into 10 different languages. I’m happy to report we exceeded our goal of a half-million people (in fact, more than 600,000 people around the world had their hearts touched by
Then tell them you are about to meditate for them in which you will be sending them love
love).
What we proved was that love cannot be quarantined and that love transcends space and time. Its power can change lives, alter timelines, mend families and relationships, and create healing. It can also transmute the past, and when you heal the past, you are free to create a new future. As the opening quote suggests, the smallest acts can have interstellar effects, but sharing love is no small
act. When you intentionally make the expression of love a part of your daily practice—that is feeling, receiving, and giving love—not only do you boost your immune system, but you begin to understand that the more you feel love, the more you become love, and when you become the embodiment of love, you can change the world.

How the 7 LEVELS of CONSCIOUSNESS Can Tell You Who You Are
The term consciousness is frequently heard these days, with everyone talking about the need to Second Level of Consciousness • Name: Social Consciousness By Brad Wallis “raise your consciousness.” Key Traits: Control, Tyranny, Herd-Like Behavior
It may be obvious but important to note that no one Where you derive your identity from a group
else can raise your consciousness for you: no guru or a
pill can do what a powerful intention from the deepest part of you can do. Consciousness is many things… it’s a field you’re
connected to, and therefore connected to all… Everyone is made from it. It’s the way you think. It is your vantage point.
Most of us like to think we are of very high consciousness, or at a minimum, that we are of higher consciousness than most other people. There is a way to know for sure: we’d like to share with you a brief overview of The Seven Levels of Consciousness.
The Levels are descriptions of vantage points that have held you bound in resistance but which can now, with your awareness and intention, release you into full abundance and creativity and allow you to master the human physical experience so that everything moves fluidly. Who doesn’t want that?
You will finally be able de
termine who you are. Once you determine that, you may move freely in any direction YOU
choose to make the necessary shifts in your life for self-empowerment. The Seven Levels are a roadmap inward that will connect you with your Soul.

Reactive behavior based on disconnection from Source. 40% of humans reside in the First Level. Description: Deeply seated in the belief of disconnection from Source. Displaying a “safety in numbers” mentality; not thinking for oneself and conforming to the views of the majority. 30% of humans reside in the Second Level.
