Love Alters BY LEANNE, THE BAREFOOT MEDIUM Feeling and knowing that you are truly loved, unconditionally, is one of the most amazing and magical sensations to be experienced in this lifetime. No matter who you are, where you live in the world, your cultural or socioeconomic background, family circumstances, financial or marital status, what you choose to do for work or in your career, the truth is that we all want to feel, know and be loved. No wonder the most common questions I am asked as a psychic medium, twin flame connector, are ‘Who is my Soul Mate?’, ‘When will I find or meet my Soul Mate?’, Is he/she my twin flame?'. Now the answer to these questions is always different, as each of us has a different journey to travel in terms of love and relationships. What I can
share with you is that when you do find your one true love, your soul mate and/or twin flame, there is almost always a very strong and intense pull towards that person, a feeling of magic or synchronicity in the air, as you are destined to come together for a purpose. The purpose of all soul mate relationships is to help each other learn and grow into more love for self, each other and Spirit, God, Buddha, Mohammed, the Divine or whoever it is you believe in. We each find love and meet our soul mate and/or twin flame, at exactly the right time, often when we least expect it, when we have given up all hope or when we are not looking. When you first meet your soul mate and/or twin flame, they may take your breathe away, experience
feelings of love at first sight, get goosebumps and have a rush of energy through every cell in your body letting you know that they are in fact your one true love. In the lead up to meeting your soul mate and/or twin flame some of you may also have very profound and real dreams, often weeks, months or even years before, where you and your soul mate begin connecting and get to know each other. In each and every case, trust that your heart knows how much it loves, trust that your heart will draw you towards your soul mate, trust that they will light up and change your world in so many different, surprising and sometimes challenging ways. Trust that your heart will know them as your best friend, your lover, your partner, your husband/wife, the father/mother of your children, your other half, your soul mate!
For those of you seeking or wanting to find your soul mate and/or twin flame, please know that true love does exist, keep the faith and trust that the love you seek is also seeking you. Love will always show up in your world when you are clear and focused, when you are following your passion, on your path and doing what it is you are meant to do, when you feel settled and confident within yourself and most importantly when you truly love and feel connected to who you are in this world. No matter the fears, doubts, obstacles or challenges you may face in finding your soul mate, please know that you are loved and that you are always connected and hold a very strong bond to them - even in your darkest, most confusing hour, remember that love is your birthright, it is there for you at all times, your job is to open up, knock down any of the walls or barriers you may have built up which are preventing you from seeing, feeling and knowing that true love still exists!

As a Medium and Twin Flame connector, I feel incredibly honoured to be able to 'connect' and 'blend' with the essence of loved one's who have passed to the Spirit world and allow them to bring forward evidence, information and insights to support you in connecting to your soul mate and/or twin flame, moving through any current relationship challenges, to provide you with tools and techniques to deepen your current relationships so that they are based on solid foundations of trust, value and respect for self, others and the Divine as well as embrace information and guidance to support you in making decisions and choices that allow your heart to thrive and experience more joy, love, happiness, success and abundance in all areas of life. Your Love Story is beautiful, amazing and perfect for you! As a soul you are destined to share your journey
with your soul mate and/or twin flame, to give and receive love, to celebrate the good times with your partner and to gather your strength and courage to walk through any challenges and hurdles you may come across along the way, seeing them simply as opportunities for you both to learn, grow and expand into more love. Remember, that love truly does still exist and is within each and everyone of us! Enjoy and embrace your personal love story, allowing it to capture, warm and open your hearts to believe and remember that true love is real, fun and does still exist! Love alters each and everyone of us, for better or for worse, it is a journey of discovery, so please open up, embrace and allow love to easily and naturally show up, flow to you and find you! Allow yourself to remember the love that you are, so that love can find its way back to you, back to love!

The Importance of Self-Love
BY JULYE-AMBER RZOSKA
Self love is the most precious thing you can give yourself. Taking care of you is self love. Doing things you enjoy is self love. Setting boundaries is self love. Before we go any further ... self love has nothing to do with being selfish. Being selfish is about always putting your needs ahead of everyone else. Self love is about taking care of yourself so that you are better able to give to others. Most of us find it easier to help others and struggle to help ourselves. This reminds me of times when I have taken flights and one of the safety messages is about when the oxygen masks drop, to always put your mask on you first ... then your child. Why? Taking care of yourself enables you to help your child. This is the same with self love, you can’t help anyone if you are not looking after
yourself first. It is only when we take care of ourselves that we can truly give a lot more help without feeling tired, drained or empty from giving and giving. Everything ... and I mean everything ... your thoughts, your emotions, your actions and your health are based on your level of self love. It influences the choices you make, how you cope with challenges and changes. Your health is affected if you are not looking after yourself. When you are not feeling good about yourself, you make poor choices. With self love comes an appreciation of oneself and life. Our mental, emotional, physical states improve and we become more aware.

One of my own long-term patterns (I have just broken recently) was the tendency to over give to others, often at the expense of my own needs. All I have known from when I was a little girl was that I had to “give love to get love”. I genuinely thought this was a positive behaviour for many years but in reality it has been detrimental to what I really want.
I have invested energy, intimacy, time and money into people who perhaps had no interest in really ever getting to know me. As a result, I have ‘scared off’ potential partners, been left feeling lonely, deflated and wondering what I did wrong.

I have no judgement on myself around the pattern, in fact, I now have compassion for myself around the situation and can move forward knowing I can give now when I want to give, not because I feel I have to in order to get love back.

Questions & Guidance
the best ways to begin understanding this is to spend at least 1 week making note of what it is that is taking place as you move throughout your day. For example, I would suggest that you consciously cleanse and clear your energy field (aura) in the shower each morning by simply asking that all negative, lower, fear based energies are washed down the drain. Then when you get out of the shower ask yourself how you feel, what emotions are you present to, what thoughts are going through your mind, are you calm and relaxed or anxious and overthinking, writing this information down on in your journal. Before you leave your home, imagine there is a bubble of protective energy around you (make it a colour that feels strong to you), then simply go about your day making note of when your energy shifts and changes through the day, recognising who you are with and what you are doing at the time. Once you return home at the end of your day, check in with what you wrote down at the beginning of the day
and if you are feeling any different go back through your day and recognise who it was that you were with when it change and then simply in your mindeye thank the person for showing you how they are feeling and return their emotions to them with love and gratitude for the learning. This process will help you to be able to understand when you are empathically picking-up on other people’s energies and can return them quickly and easily without them having a significant impact on your day to day life. - Leanne - The Barefoot Medium
