I am sitting in the sunshine and I am listening to what sounds like families of birds singing happily. It's a jovial energy and it is bliss. This moment I am still and I give myself over to their song. I am grateful. In this moment of gratitude, I thank myself for pausing for no other reason than to just be still...to return to center. I observe with all of my senses, relaxed, grounded and I del...ight in the flow of love and light that envelops me. It is important to reconnect with our energy every single day. It is imperative to maintaining a healthful energy to be both present and grounded. To be one with our divine self. To honour our unique sacredness. To be still. In moments of stillness the divine flame within our heart burns brighter and the light from this flame is unwavering. In the sacredness of this stillness we are taught our souls truth. We are taught questions...that lead to a deeper truth of our own divinity. Enjoy this dialogue and learn this new language of spirit. Allow this flow to be filtered through all of your senses. Patiently open yourself to this new way of processing and you will learn many truths. All truth resides within your heart. To truly listen to this energy, this frequency of unconditional love and truth, we must learn to participate in all communication using all of our senses through the filter of our heart. We must feel with our heart and not get lost in our head. I hope this resonates. Xo Photo: Carrie Carter Bédard. I worked a lot with trees my first year of true healing. This was before being attuned to a healing modality and I was in search...or to phrase it more accurately, I was on a recovery mission!
I was in search of my wellness, that feeling of being whole and a burning need to purge emotional trauma and outdated programming. It seems like a lifetime ago....and I suppose that it was. I have experienced several lifetimes since. The healing energy of trees is something that helped me through. Tree energy work is truly something to experience. Photo: Carrie Carter Bedard . All must stem from love to create a solid foundation. Without a solid foundation, what was built will fall apart, fall away...it will also bottleneck healthful growth.... Regardless of what relationships have been, whether lasting or short-lived, please choose to find value in the knowledge garnered. For it is of value! We learn, we hopefully grow and adjust so that we can search out more love. We journey to discover a higher love that must first begin with ourselves. The search for love cannot begin outside of ourselves or we will constantly be searching unfulfilled. We will adjust, experiencing either personal growth or regression with each mirror relationship, platonic and/or romantic. The goal is to grow and to evolve into this higher love of the self that connects you to the divine. We connect to our higher heart and open up to the highest frequency of love. Learn to appreciate the many highs and many lows that your heart may have experienced and the wisdom that you can either build with or walk away with. Love is love is love. Let each experience create a stepping stone for your next level of awareness. For each experience will create an awareness of what you need on a heart level for further growth. This is beautiful energy...this awareness. The vibration of love is always behind everything that we search for. We must not block it's teachings but instead, we must blossom from it. Love is most potent when it begins with you and your connection to source energy. You must connect with yourself first to truly open to the divine. Selflove is hard-earned for some, most if we're being entirely honest, but it is worth each moment spent in darkness. It is the most worthy journey. In the energy of love, you are safe and supported. If there is something or even someone that is keeping you from that, then perhaps it is time to turn page. This will drain your energy and keep you from evolving if you stick around. Seriously. Let. It. Go. When we are asked to release for our highest good, it is not because there is nothing more for us on the horizon. It means that we must first let go to make room for more. Love is always more. Holding on to the remnants of what could've, should've, or even would've isn't love. It's yesterdays loss, guilt, fear... You deserve more. More love! We are being asked to unfold ourselves, to open to the possibilities and opportunities that are on the way. If you have put in the work, it will manifest. Perhaps it is already manifesting! It may or may not be harvest time just yet, but the Universe has your back and it is in process. Trust. Love. Trust. It's coming. Love to all xo Photo: Carrie Carter Bédard Your perception is key to your growth and to your awareness. View all through the lens of love.
Photo: Carrie Carter Bédard You cannot build a solid foundation on shaky ground, but you sure can learn a heck of a lot from it! Draw strength from each lesson and rebuild. All is not lost. Time has not been wasted. ... The knowledge that you learn from each experience is a teacher. You are guided to the door by each lesson, whomever or whichever way you encounter it, but it is up to you to cross over the threshold. You must take that step! Cross the threshold. Own your wisdom. Own it. You earn each and every bit of knowlege because it is you that put in the work. You've got this. Xo What happens when we let go of what and whom no longer serves us for our highest good? What happens when we put in the work and our energy shifts? When we let go of what no longer serves us, the weightiness of that gunk makes room for more light. This can apply to people, any residual energy...old habits...it can apply to all of that. When we change our vibration we al...so change what we attract and what is needed to boost us higher to our next lesson for greater growth. As our awareness changes, our perception also changes. That old adage about how others talk and treat others when they are not in the room is probably how they talk and treat you as well? As you grow, you will see that coming from a mile away and may even begin avoiding that energy all together, on a conscious or even unconscious level. You will feel..."this is not healthful" even if it may seem to be. You will just feel it with a deep knowing that something is not right. You are seeing through the lens of your heart. Trust this. As we rise and step into our own divine knowledge, our vibration shifts and lightens. This creates a falling away, as those energies that are no longer inline with our vibration will no longer be attracted. The scene (or scenes) have played out and it is time to turn the page. I find this happens most noticeably when we are clearing and working on strengthening the bridge between the solar, heart and the throat chakras. A lot of blessings in disguise seem to happen during this time of true transformation. Some pinch and sting while others make your heart sing. 😘 Simply put, once you find your voice, speak through the filter of love, speak authentically about what truly fires you up, your life will change in wonderous ways. Honesty first with ourselves and then shared with others is key here. This is the bridge. We must love and honour ourselves and our space in order to extend this to others. Once you rise, those that held "authority" over you under the guise of "relationship" will fall away. The narcissist doesn't allow a shared light. They will walk away. It's a blessing to arise 🎶with a new set of eyes🎶. It may sting at first but...that's a blessing as well. You are feeling through the filter of love. Let it fall away. Old patterns, often repeated in the past will now seem unnecessary. They will begin to fall away. Energy patterns, memories that would seemingly haunt will begin to heal fully and be seen through the lens of forgiveness and will be released. Whatever happens for you during this transition is perfection. Embrace this. When we step into our empowerment in all of its newness, it is a time to feel love and to honour this new space. This time is sacred and as such you should try to avoid the feeling of being pulled down by situations, others and...even yourself. Rise instead. While you will have people to support you lovingly, you will also have those who will view your shift with fear and judgement. They may even attempt to get you to return inward and in a way so obvious...just to get your full attention. Allow the falling away. Please remember that we function at our own level of awareness. Looking through the lens of love, we see without judgement, it may be better to not know why they are viewing through fear and ego. Just let it go. Focus on growth instead. Please remember that there is enough room for everyone. You are not taking up too much space. Your light is meant to grow and to shine even brighter than it is right this very moment! We are constantly evolving. Do not diminish or hide your sparkles! It is the divine that is encouraging and assisting in your blossoming and this is not ego driven. You are safe. You are loved. Arise and shine. You are divine. Xo Photo: Carrie Carter Bédard Everything that you need is already inside of your own heart. Did you know that the heart is the gateway between the lower and higher chakras? Sometimes it's our own self-talk that sabotages our very connection to our divineness and this can create a wee bit if a blockage. (Look up tri-fold flame meditations to help with this). Our own self-talk is unfortunately what can keep us from reaching o...ur full potential and from awakening to our infinite and divine truth. This is why we must "live" in our heart to filter and then transmute this nonsense brought on by fear. We must alchemize to create a harmonic balance. Fear is a beautiful teacher if only we first filter through the heart. Although challenging, we must rise to meet our fear. That is the lesson, not to live in fear but to rise to meet it. Stare it in the eye and reclaim your space. Owning your space will make your energy bubble around you larger. When we hit a lull and feel less than great about ourselves, our bubble is contracted and we literally take up less space around our physical body. This feeling of being small, no matter our actual physical size, becomes relevant to our perception of our own self worth. If we are grounded and anchored, we assert our space and are more likely to feel confident and present. This will make the energy around us larger. If you were to filter through your heart, you would better understand your own capacity for love...unconditional love for your very own person. We are already more than enough. We are all capable of unlimited light. It's a shame that we feel unable to see the magnitude of our own capacity to love unconditionally. I suppose in order to see this, we must first open our eyes to it. We must awaken with eyes wide open to truly realize our full potential. Awaking to your own divinity is empowering. Growing roots and anchoring your own energy enables you to effortlessly connect with those around you. Let self-love become your anchor. Love, love, love xo Photo: Carrie Carter Bédard We are currently purging that reactionary part of us that we have stifled for far too long. It is now time to take that step forward. We are being asked to move past the illusionary threshold of fear. Any step forward in love is a divine step towards your authenticity. You are loved and you are safe! Each one of us is guided and cared for along this journey. Please remember this as you transition. As we heal, we may experience a few "dark nights" of the soul and remembering this may be especially helpful. We are never alone. We are being borne into a new consciousness. This process requires our energy to shift and we feel this emotionally, physically and spiritually. As we are experiencing a falling away of the old, we may experience fluctuations in body temperature, achy muscles and fatigue. Take this hint from physical you to slow down and to nurture yourself. We are purging supressed emotional hurts. For each of us it'll come out differently. Example: Are you "unable to" full on cry it out? Or, are you "unable to" get angry? Etc.. (All of this deep releasing is done constructively, of course). Meaning, have there been experiences that you have had where you haven't allowed yourself to react...feel to heal in a way that releases and creates balance? This is what may be bubbling up for you. Why? To clear the blockage and it's rooted deeply. This bubbling up may make you feel out of control. This is illusionary. You are in control. Give yourself the space to step into your power. Offer yourself forgiveness and then permission. Create a safe space for this release. Take your time with it and nurture yourself. You've got this! Xo Photo: Carrie Carter Bédard If you feel like something is on it's way out, let it fall away. Perhaps this is something that you find uncomfortable or even challenging but it most likely no longer supports the energy that you have risen to and that is inline with your souls true purpose. Let it go for there is something far more in synch with your energy coming up for you. Let go to make space for this new energy. Stay hydrated, rest when you need to and be gentle with yourself. Replenish. Little by little, we are being integrated into our divine purpose. We take baby steps as we awaken more and more to our authentic truth. This is a time of great change and integration. Take notice and embrace the newness that unfolds as what is no longer needed falls away. It is also a time of great love and beauty. Take note of what excites you, invokes your curiosity and sparks passion within you. This is guiding you one step closer... How any of us chooses to move through this energy is completely up to us. We are here to feel and feel we shall! However, try not to feel this transition through the lens of fear but through the lens of love instead. In order to be reborn we must first die. Let the old fall away and be reborn again. Peel back another layer. Photo: Carrie Carter Bédard |
