Within You is the Power You See in Others....

The power within you holds your future.  Tap into that energy and unleash your shine!  When we look at the energy within the solar plexus chakra we may get into the "comparing" mode.  That can deplete your power if you fail to see that the quality you admire in someone else absolutely has to be present in you! 
The following exercise will help you to own your power by showing you where you may be giving it away to others.  Begin to own what you have projected onto others.

1. Think of 6 people that you admire whom you consider to be powerful.  This can be a friend, a politician, a teacher, a child.  This can be a person who has transitioned or even a character.   Choose anyone that you admire....

2.  Quietly think about each person and the reason your call them "powerful".  What traits do you admire?  Are they generous & open?  Why do you consider them "powerful"?

3.  Now list these traits next to their name.  Use as many descriptive words as you like.  Here is an example of how your list may look.

Aunt Margie                  Honest about  feelings

4.  The next step is to stand in front of a mirror, list in hand.  And with every item on the list, repeat aloud to your reflection...."I AM honest about my feelings."  etc.....

Reclaim what you project onto others, stop giving power to others - it is yours.....

A great add-on to this exercise is to start over but within the list include those that you have ill feelings for, that you despise and those that zap your power......Don't forget to list those items in the "I AM" mirror.......

Power is continually flowing from and to us!  Choose to be YOU

Illuminating the Power within the Solar Plexus Chakra!

"Don't give your power away." "Stand in your power." These are statements that we have heard at one time.   Let's uncover what they mean on an energetic level and how working within the

energy of  the solar plexus chakra can illuminate a new power within you.

The 3rd chakra is located just above the naval and below the breast bone.  Within this "sun" center lies the primary fears of rejection, criticism and failure to meet the expectations of others.  When strong and balanced the solar plexus radiates self-esteem, self-respect, ambition and self-discipline.  Can you see the cross between our relationship with others and the relationship that we have with ourselves?  Being hung up on changing to please others and willing to relinquish our self-worth emanates the energy of a servant while being confident and empowered taps into the warrior within us.  Finding the balance between these two archetypes will help us to honor our personal power and build a healthy, satisfying life.

Ask yourself - are your a servant or are you a warrior?  Of course our immediate answer would be "I am a warrior"!  But lets take a few deep breaths, clear your mind and open your journal.  Answer these questions in a manner that honors your desire to uncover and heal underlying patterns and beliefs.  Peel away the protective armor and let your inner light shine!!

1.  Do you like yourself?  If you answered no, what is it that you don't like?  Are you working on changing these things?

2.  Are you honest or do you "candy coat" the truth to please others?

3.  Do you gossip about others to take the focus off of your own situations?  Are you critical of others?

4.  Do you continually wish your life was different?  If yes, what is your plan to transform it into the life you desire?

5.  Do you consider yourself to be strong or weak?  Are you afraid of being alone?

Try to get a feel for where you may be lacking self-esteem or giving your power to others.  This is not a bad thing.  Like a person that works on the electrical lines when there is an outage or power surge, we have to first identify where the energy is crossed.  Only then can the light be restored.......

Accept the Responsibility of YOUR JOY!

Walking through life playing the role of the martyr is an indication that you may need to get into the sacred spaces hidden in your 2nd chakra.  The sacral chakra, located just below your navel, governs our sense of taste & appetite on a physical level as well as in an emotional, spiritual level.  

This center holds the archetypes of "the martyr" and the "empress/emperor".  The martyr accepts no responsibility for his/her own happiness and tends to be very unhappy.  Ho, hum - poor, poor me..  On the flip side, the empress/emperor enjoys fine things, lives abundantly and looks for pleasure and happiness in everything.  Finding that perfect balance between the two is accomplished as the sacral chakra is opened, healed & balanced.

Lets uncover what archetypal energy is predominant in your sacral chakra. This is another step in our journey of healing..

 Grab your journal, a hot cup of citrus tea and relax into your sacred place.....

1.  Do you find yourself sacrificing your happiness for someone else on a regular basis?   Do you have any expected outcomes from your sacrifice?  ie: approval, love, respect....

2.  Are you willing to take responsibility for these types of situations?  Can you accept your need for love & appreciation?  Can you claim your right to be happy & joyous?  You are entitled....

3.  Describe a recent scenario when you were "on top of the world".  What did that complete joy feel like in your body? 

4.  Do you feel worthy to receive more moments like this?  Are you comfortable receiving gifts, compliments and recognition? 

5.  Are you willing to accept the responsibility of creating a joyous, carefree life? 
Draw how these feelings look to you?  Colorful, flowing or neat & orderly....

The sacral chakra is about going with the flow and not resisting as life unfolds.  However, it does not mean that we can just float around and do nothing.  Creating a life full of abundance, health, peace & love requires making conscious choices and being receptive to all the Universe has to offer! 

My wish  is that your journey is joyous, full of light, love, zest & zeal!


***Information gathered using "CHAKRAS AND THEIR ARCHETYPES" by Ambika Wauters***

All these choices?!?!

 As our energy flows up from our tribal energy center it ignites our need for personal relationships and the need to be in control.  The desire to control creates disappointment, strife and stagnation.  The realization that we never completely know the outcome of any choice can freeze us in a place of fear and isolation .  We get stuck in the "what if's and the if only's" - searching for that one grand choice that will put everything  and everybody in "our" perfect order.

Lets explore what motivates us.  What drives our choices? From there we can discover if our choices are being made from a place of fear or faith?  We can begin to see patterns in our relationships, our successes and our disappointments because each outcome begins with a choice.

Grab your journal, surround yourself in the hue of orange and let the answers flow.  Please do not try to control your answers.  Much like the juice from the orange flows from it's core, let your answers flow from the sacred spot in your belly - your sacral chakra.

1.  Do you consider yourself a creative person?  Do you follow through with your creative ideas?
2.  Do you embellish the "facts" around situations to create a more exciting "scene"?
3.  In the past, have you tried to change a person to fit your needs?  Do you engage in power struggles in relationships?
4.  What are some recent choices that you made from feelings of fear?  What was the outcome?

Go within and affirm that you are the creator of your reality.  Create from faith, not fear!

Breathe in Strength, Breathe out Fear!

Today is the day that your fears can be expressed.  You are safe and stable as you dig even deeper into your core.  As you begin to identify, express & release feelings that have been buried deep within your energy please remember that you are a powerful, divine being.  It is necessary to break down the walls that block your light.  Be honest, be strong and be true to you!

Breathe in deeply the powerful, warming energy of red.  See this red light circulating slowly at the base of your spine.  Let this light flow through you, out the bottom of your feet and continuing deep into Mother Earth.  Stand strong in the knowing that you are safely grounded, strong & stable.

Give thought to each of these questions.  The answers are yours and only yours.  Release your fears, this is your sacred expression of your feelings.  YOU ARE SAFE

1.  Do you love your body?  Do you feel physically fit?  What would you love to implement into your day that would help you to gain the fitness level you want?

2.  Are you able to follow through with your ideas?  Do you accomplish your to-do lists regularly or do your start something and not follow through?

3.  Is your home a place you feel safe in?  Are you comfortable in your living space?  Do you have a sacred space that is just yours?

4.  Is money or lack of money a driving force in your life?  Are your feelings about money reflected in your moods and energy levels?

5.  Do you feel supported by the Universe?  Do you feel supported by your loved ones & family?  List how you do or do not feel supported......

Take a few minutes after this exercise to rest in your power.  Know that you are a unique, unstoppable spirit that is rooted deep in the Universe and all that is.

Tapping into your tribal identity!

As we delve down deeply into our root chakra, we will begin to uncover how our group identity and connection to our family beliefs really do shape our emotional responses to being included or excluded from "the tribe".    These experiences can be empowering & positive as well as painful & debilitating.

The root chakra, located a the base of the spine and effects our spine, legs, bones, feet along with our immune system.  This is the slowest spinning vortex of the seven and creates a brilliant, ruby-red color.  Along with tribal & family issues, the root chakra is closely related to thoughts & feelings about finances, career, home, possessions and physical safety. 

As we begin to open, clear and balance the root chakra on this journey, pay close attention to the physical sensations you experience when processing the self-examination questions.  First, take a few minutes to connect with the energy of your 1st chakra.  Focus your attention on some of the following tribal triggers.  How do you feel when:

*You listen to the national anthem?

*Attend & witness a marriage ceremony of someone you care deeply for?

*You are asked to be a God-parent to a child?

Write, doodle, draw what comes from your heart, your soul and dig deeply into the root of who you really are as you creatively express your sacred truth using the energy & intuition within and around your tribal chakra.

1.  What traditions & belief patterns did you inherit from your family?

2.  Do any of these beliefs still have "control" over your thinking even though you acknowledge that they are no longer valid?  ex:  Little boys love baseball & little girls play with dolls?  Once a cheat, always a cheat? Men are smarter then women?

3.  What is your personal honor code?  Have you ever compromised it?

4.  Do you have unfinished business with family?  If there is, what are the reasons you are not addressing it?

5.  List the blessings that you feel came from your family

6.  What rituals & traditions to you continue from your family?

7.  Whether you are a biological parent or not, we all have a child or children in our life that we would like to carry on family qualities.  What qualities within you would you like "carried" on in a child?

8.  What tribal characteristics within yourself would you like to strengthen & develop?  ex.  We are ONE

Take your time with this, go within and listen. Most importantly - express your feelings.  They are yours, only yours - you determine whether they are helping or hindering your growth into living a life, better than you could ever imagine!

Color Heals

  Color Heals-Breathe in the Rainbow that is all around you!

A Reading for Sept 4th - The Magic of Healing & Growing

Beloveds,
Tonight I decided to do a 3 card reading from the "Magical Mermaids & Dolphins" Oracle Deck by Doreen Virtue.  As I prayed over the cards, I asked that they be surrounded with light & love and to provide us with a reading for the best and highest good for everyone who reads it.  My hope is to have the ability to create videos for future group readings. This is for you my friends as you create the life of your dreams, the songs of your heart and the expansion of your light!  Namaste'....

HEALING HEART -  You are on a magnificent journey of healing.  A quiet dance of healing your own heart while helping others to heal.  Look within to where the completeness of your being resides.  Begin to gracefully and lovingly search for your inner wisdom.  Go slowly as you do not want to expend all of your energy in haste.  Look deeply, feel deeply and discern honestly what wounds there may be.  These heart wounds are like the water that quenches your thirst.  Each hurt a pool of knowledge, a vision of who we really are and a reason to speak your truth. They will mend and make you stronger.  They will unveil to you exactly why your journey is only yours.    Within you is the light that will lead you out of the darkness.   Stand tall, lean on the staff of the Divine and shine your light so that others may see your healing heart!

 

Morning Affirmations – As you rise to begin each new day, take a few moments and affirm with Spirit what it is you want to experience.  You are able to manifest anything you wish but only if you stay focused, remain open and move with ease & grace.  Remain flexible while the world swirls around you.  This will help to create a dance that is only yours.  A dance that requires balance, sure footedness but also one filled with twists and turns.  Each day is a promise of new growth and the promise to rise higher than the previous day.  Stand firm and stay focused and take the necessary steps and actions towards achieving what you affirm.  Start each day with positive affirmations, prayers for guidance and clarity and thanks for the gates of manifestation that are opening for you now.

Music for Manifesting – Raising your vibration through songs, music, chanting and singing. This will help to increase the realizations of all you desire.  Feel the rhythm in your body.  See this vibration gently opening & cleansing your energy centers.  Sing from the bottom of your belly, up through your heart and out your throat chakra.  Find happiness in all that you do and know that your world is full of opportunities, dreams, desires and all things that you love.  Spirit surrounds you in the vibration of song and celebration as you walk into each new day.  Sing out loud, speak from your heart and claim your Divinity.   

If you are interested in a personalized, in-depth Angel Card Reading and/or a Reiki session, please contact me and I will help reconnect you with the depths of your Soul and with the hands of your Angels.......sdennison66@gmail.com

COLOR YOUR WORLD!

As we explore the wonderful, healing properties of color and how color actually helps us to heal is going to be so, so exciting!  Why you ask??  Ok even if you didn't ask  - I am tie "dying" to share.

Because color therapy and healing with color is available to every single person in the world.  Regardless of financial status, physical limitations and healing knowledge,  there are many different techniques and methods that we can use to help open, balance and heal our body, mind & spirit.  But before I start posting various color therapies on "A Peaceful Experience", I wanted to provide you with information detailing colors, their healing properties and attributes.  This is by no means material created by me.  A great reference book and one that I call my "handbook to healing" is written by Ted Andrews - "The Healer's Manual".  Other websites and books were used to gather the information.

What to Expect from an Angel Card Reading?

During your Angel Card Reading, I work in partnership with your Angels to deliver accurate, intelligent, respectful messages that can help you to positively change the direction of your life.  Connecting with your Angels as well as tuning into my intuition allows information to flow through me that is for your best and highest good.  These messages are always positive and will empower you to move forward towards your heart's desire.

The cards used are beautifully designed tools that provide insight into the directions of relationships, careers, finances, and all other areas of your present life.  The messages you receive come from your Angels through the Law of Magnetic Attraction  Because your thoughts and beliefs create your future, the cards provide insight that guides you in the positive directions of your  relationships, careers, finances, health, and other areas.

The atmosphere is very relaxing and light which will begin to raise our vibration to meet the higher vibrations of the Angels.  First I will set my intention of being a clear and open channel to receive and communicate clear messages from your Angels.  I will then ask you to set your intention to be open to receive this guidance.  We will ground, protect and pray together all in preparation for this Angelic journey.

There are several reading types that are available such as past, present & future or more specific questions such as health, career, relationship and etc...  Our time together and with the Angels will be filled with uplifting, positive energy that will propel you forward in your life.  Your Angels know what is best and it is my honor to help you receive and understand their messages. 

Relax, close your eyes and imagine what your Angels would say!  And if you are ready to embark on this exploration with your Angels and myself, contact me - I would be honored!

A PRAYER - SPRINKLE THE LIGHT

I welcome everyone to take a few deep cleansing breaths.  Settle into the present moment.  Release anything that happened before this moment and forget about anything you may have on your mind to do later in the day.  Be Here Now

And we ask,

Mother, Father, God, All That Is and All That Will Ever Be

Illuminate, even brighter, the light that is within us all.
Gently join our individual lights together, as one, connecting us with all that is.
May this light serve as a beacon of hope, love, healing and laughter for all we encounter today.

We open our hearts and our hands
Allowing us to sprinkle our Divine light along the path
Igniting and celebrating compassion and caring, joy and laughter, oneness and gratitude.

Guide our steps on this magnificent earth, as we go forward through this day
United in all that is Divine.

Namaste'
*******************************************************

A PRAYER - LET ME BE A VESSEL

Mother, Father, God – all that is and will ever be

My heart, my entire being is open to receive all of your love, light and wisdom as it flows through me as you.

Embrace me in your love, allowing me to be a vessel that emulates your divine spirit throughout this beloved universe.  Empower me to go forth, honoring the holy kingdom.

Spirit please gather within and throughout, cleansing my thoughts and harmonizing my soul, cloaking my entire being in pure compassion.

Help me to feast on all that is present, true and forever evolving.

Wash away all thoughts that do not serve the Divine Father.   Purify my mind to allow only love to shine forth brightly from my heart.  Softening my heart so that it turns to feed all seasons.  All seasons of love, light and healing.

Through my love for you, shall glory be within and without, for all creation.  We will rise together,  

Mother, Father, God in your kingdom and sing Amen, Amen, Amen
