My dear friends, we love you so very much,

Take a long breath in. Now let it out very, very slowly – as if you are a balloon slowly deflating. Do this once again. Breathe in. Exhale very slowly allowing your body to simply release the air. No forcing is necessary. One more time. Breathe in deeply and then allow the body to exhale, slowly, gently, thoroughly. How did you feel when you were doing this? Just notice.

Now, pick up something around you. It can be anything, a pen, a pencil, a glass of water. Just pick it up, and examine it carefully. Notice its color and texture. How does it feel in your hands? Is it heavy or light? Just be with this thing and really examine it. Imagine this thing you picked up is living being. Whether out loud, or in your head tell it how much you love it. Point out all the good qualities and characteristics of this thing. Appreciate it. Imagine you can it all the love in your heart. Breathe now. Exhale slowly. Notice how you feel.

In these two very simply exercises you took charge of your inner reality. You became intensely present. You chose to flow love forth from within. You became for a few seconds, rooted in the present, and rooted in love. How did that feel? Remember this simple exercise. Breathe. Flow love. Breathe. You can do it any time.

When you are rooted in the present moment and rooted in love, you become the peaceful, calm eye at the center of the storm. While chaos whirls around you, you can feel centered, grounded, clear, and calm.

This is extremely useful in a world where many are trying to convince you that things are going terribly. Covid is running rampant. Disagreements are at fever pitch. Friends, family, or co-workers have strong biases and suddenly don't feel you belong in their lives. You feel stuck, stir-crazy, unclear... Breathe. Flow Love. Breathe.

Dear ones some of you already practice being as present as possible. Some of you already play with the magic of your breathing. You already experience the benefits. If you've never tried it, or if you feel pushed and pulled and buffeted by life and the choices of others, then take charge of your reality, if only for a minute or two. Breathe. Flow love. Breathe.

No matter what is going on around you, you are the only one who can ever control your own energy field. The world can trigger you, influence you, push you, and pull you. Others can worship or attack you. Nonetheless, you and only you control your energy field. It is not your fault that so many of you still believe you are controlled by the external world. You have not been taught that your energy attracts your reality. Now, however, you are learning to start taking charge of your inner reality, your thoughts, and therefore your own personal field that will attract your own personal reality.

Try it this week when something stresses you and you feel you are not in control. Perhaps you honestly can't control the 3D world. But you can breathe. You can flow love. You can breathe again. You can control your vibration. And in that simple sequence of actions, wherein you decided to be in charge of your inner reality, suddenly you find yourself at the calm, clear, center of the storms around you. Suddenly you are truly – if only for a few seconds – living in the present, and living in love.

God Bless You! We love you so very much.

Hi Everyone,

"Stress is a reaction when you're trying to control things you cannot," the angels once told me. They have a way of taking problems that seem so complex and distilling them down to the pure essence. It seemed so obvious when I started to look at my own life and the lives of the many I've worked with.

On a day when I'm feeling my connection to the Source, nothing stresses me. I don't need to be in control of anything other than my own mind! The rest is the job of the Creator of Universes, and everything that appears on my path I trust to be perfect. I drop a glass of milk and accept it, thinking how pretty it is as the white river pours over my kitchen floor and the glass sparkles in the sunshine. I know it'll lead to some good. Perhaps I'll support an eBay seller by replacing it, or I'll go to the grocery to get more milk and run into someone wonderful. In a traffic jam I listen to fun music, clean out my purse, and bless everyone around me. When someone is upset with me, in that space, I feel only compassion for their pain and send them love.

When I'm connected, I know the only thing i can control for sure is my inner world and that seems 5D-logical, easy, fun, and instantly effective.

On days when I haven't maintained my connection to love, and forget that I can control my inner world, I fall into old unpleasant habits of victimized thinking. I drop a glass and beat myself up for being clumsy. I get antsy in traffic. Someone gets nasty, I take it personally, and let my feelings get hurt. I waste time, miss opportunity, and forget my inner power.

The external world is exactly the same in both cases. The difference is that in an empowered, connected, 5D state I am aware that I always have the ability to control of my own mind, my reactions, my energy, and therefore the quality of my moments. I choose to be happy from within. In a disconnected state forget and give all my power to the outer world. Nothing has changed but my thoughts.

So while the wild world whirls around us we can be peaceful and calm and centered, healthy, and happy. These past few weeks it seems that the anger vibe was rising up in a lot of folks. Many were reporting gallbladder or liver issues, frustrations, anger, and impatience. If that was you, its OK. No one will ever judge you in the heavens, and there's no need to judge yourself. Nonetheless, there are tools as the angels say, that help us reconnect with Source, inner power, and a much better feeling reality.

Breathe. Flow love. Breathe.

Here are a few pointers how to get back into the calm center of the storm...

1. Breathe. Flow Love. Breathe

Do the exercise the angels suggested this week. Breathe deeply, and exhale slowly. Repeat this at least three. Pick up something around you and talk to it like a beloved. Appreciate it. Flow love from your heart to it. Breathe again. See how you feel.

I always do the exercises they suggest while I'm channeling the newsletter. I picked up a pen and admired its smoothness, its sharp click, its wonderful blue color, its sleek design... and before I knew it I felt madly in love with my pen. I may never look at it the same again.

I've been having problems with my website being painfully slow all day, and suddenly as I breathed and flowed love, it didn't seem like such a big deal. It would get resolved. I stopped to appreciate that future in advance. Ding. An email came in from the support folks who were working on it. Problem solved. That's the beauty of breathing, being present, flowing love. It may seem simple, but in 5D reality it is a quick vibrational tune-up.

2. Take Breathing Breaks and Presence Pauses

Every time you stop at a stoplight, train yourself to breathe. Or if you're at home, set a timer and stop what you're doing when it dings. Take a few slow deep breaths. Pause to be present every now and then. Every time you feel yourself getting stressed, frustrated, or cranky, flow love towards the first thing you see. Keep flexing those inner muscles. It may feel ridiculous in our 3D paradigm, but in the 3D paradigm you're learning to re-tune your tuner!

3. Remind yourself often, "I am always in control of my energy"

It is a huge paradigm shift to stop blaming others and the outside world for how we feel. For some time we'll all be "works in progress" when it comes to reclaiming our power over our own energy. It is a new way of thinking. Most of us grew up with the blame and shame game, but as I recently heard, "when you change the frame, you change the game!" We're all working to change our frame from "external creates internal" to "Internal creates external."

As the angels like to say, "Reality is like hair. What you see today you grew on the inside yesterday! What you'll see tomorrow is what you're growing inside today."

After a few decades of working with angels I know that their so-called "small, silly exercise" are neither small, nor silly. They understand that the name of the real game, the 5D game and beyond is one of learning to manage our energy and they'll use anything they can to assist us in doing so easily, quickly, and kindly. Try it. Practice it. keep it up. We are all moving toward a more amazing reality, just one moment at a time :) Breathe. Flow love. Breathe!

Love you all!
