Beloveds,

We are loving you powerfully. Each and every one of you are sovereign beings. You do not need to kneel down in our presence. You do not need to use flowery speech to speak to us. You do not need to go to a certain building, or even a certain room. It delights us no end when you connect with us out of doors where so much more of creation is accessible to you. When you use the broad palette of nature as the background of your life, you generally experience much more well-being than those who do not enjoy the outdoors.

The sun is not your enemy. It is vitally important that you spend some time in the sun periodically to replenish your vitamin D. Supplements are only marginally beneficial compared to the real thing. Your body responds much better to natural sunlight than manufactured pills. The more you can gradually increase your time in the sun little by little, the less you will turn to unnatural products to 'protect' you from the sun. We recommend that if you are not in the habit of spending time out of doors without protection, that you begin doing so in increments of 10 minutes per day. After a number of days, you can increase it to 20 minutes. After another week, you might increase it to 30 minutes. In this way, you will gently acclimate yourself to the sun and its benefits.

Your beliefs are powerful. We recommend that you think of the sun as healing and that will be your experience. Your experience will be more important than any hearsay or printed information. We are not recommending that you spend hours in the sun if you are not used to it. We are suggesting that you make a habit of spending some time in the sun in small increments until you and your body can appreciate longer exposure. The more you learn experientially, the more you will be able to share accurate information with others. That does not mean they will have the same experience as you. Your experience is yours and someone else may do the same thing that you do and have a very different experience. Therefore, we recommend you proceed more and more through life with a sense of adventure in terms of creating your own reality through your own desired and lived experiences. We do not recommend not trying things because other people have tried something and have not had a pleasurable result.

There are many reasons why people have unwanted experiences. In many cases, unwanted experiences are the result of stress, fear, worry, attachment to outcome, or trying to control a situation or other people. For many people, none of these apply. Those for whom these factors do not apply are the ones who live life in the flow. Those who live in the flow tend to experience much greater ease in life. Beloveds, we highly encourage you to attach to all that is in your highest good and detach from all that does not serve you. We are oversimplifying this message because your life can be that simple if you allow it to be. We recommend that you simplify your lives as much as possible. The more you let go of, the more you will enjoy life. By this we mean, let go of those relationships that do not serve you. Let go of all the material goods in your basement, your attic, your garage. Let go of unwanted responsibilities - of ownership, of obligations that you have no vested interest in, of positions that do not reflect your values. Be willing to trade that which does not serve you for that which brings you great joy. Be the change you wish to see in the world and begin with your own life.

And so it is.
