Quantity? Quality? What Makes the MOST Sense for You? (and Me Too!) #30DayBlog

Recently I’ve engaged in a “challenge” 30 blog posts in 30 days.  Sometimes we say yes and only afterward realize what we have committed ourselves to.  As an Energy Master I have a duty to myself to be clear and focused on what it is that I choose to do with my energy and because I myself am still “on journey” I’ve been given the opportunity once again to “discover” an old pattern of saying YES Uh Huh I’ll do that Seems Like a Good Idea – before really taking even the smallest of moments to breathe, scan, discern and determine if this is the right choice for me right now.

The intent behind this challenge is to help those of us who have agreed to join in to get into a regular habit of blogging – and as a result of that habit of sharing our information, wisdom or offerings to simultaneously build our business because the theory is with more blogging we’ll get more attention, more information or content out there and thus more opportunities to connect with the people who may be a fit for our services.  All good in theory – perhaps another story in practice…

So I find myself right now a bit at odds with some of the things I know to be true:

1. – Whatever I need is always there for me all the time

2. – Those who are supposed to connect with me will show up – and be ready, willing and able to connect with the work that I have to offer – Exactly on Time

3. – I choose to allow the flow of people, money, connections, and opportunities to come to and through me with ease and grace – and I have in fact experienced this many times.

4. When I try to force the river – efforting, struggling, or pushing to create something whether it’s a blog post, a piece of music, a work of art or a harmonious relationship then I end up not only not really accomplishing what I desire but often times I end up burned out, used up, exhausted or unwell.

5.  My creative process is well known to me at this point – when I create – it comes in spurts – I’ll sit down and make 27 pieces of jewelry in two days or 45 paintings in three weeks or write 5 books in one year and then when the flow is complete I’m done – I walk away and I might not touch the writing, the paintbrush or the beads again for weeks, months or maybe even years!

6.  My work – when I bring the fullness of myself to it – is truly impactful – it is deep, profound, life altering work and the people who choose to connect with their own energy journey by investing in themselves through me are achieving phenomenal shifts and exponential growth in both their business and personal lives.

7.  I must honor myself above all else – caring for my needs first – in order to be of the highest level of service to all.  Do I need to do all these posts? or is ONE QUALITY post going to serve as powerfully as 30 little snippets?

So what is a shamaness to do when she discovers that perhaps she’s signed on for something that is not fully in alignment with what she knows to be true about herself? (or anyone for that matter??)

First I’ve decided to share my truth – here in this post and also with the person that I made the commitment to (that would be me! because in actuality when we commit to another we are committing ourselves!)

Secondly I’ve decided that I will blog when I feel the urge – when I feel that there is something of VALUE that I have to say – not just for the sake of blogging or of living up to some “challenge” or expectation that I have set for myself.

Thirdly if there comes a moment in the next 23 days where I decide I’m not going to be reaching this goal I will gracefully and easily give myself permission to back off – to take myself back from the edge (like we do in yoga) so that I don’t injure myself or send the energy of pushing too hard to do too much out with my posts.

Fourth I’ll ask myself to remember the next time someone sends me an invitation to jump on board and commit to something to take a breath AND a little journey along the choice/destiny lines to see into the future (I can do that you know – you can too) and determine if this is the right thing at the right time for me.

Discernment and self-knowledge are precious gifts – and they are to be used – not stored in the cupboard for when special company comes to visit!

Please feel free to comment on this post if you feel that it speaks to you in any way.

In celebration of the last week of summer I have decided (after careful discernment and sitting with the idea for about a week) that I’ll be picking 7 people to receive a free PEA (Personal Energy Assessment – Valued at $97.00) – one for each day of this final week before the Autumnal Equinox – to be considered for this contest please forward me an email to amethyst@amethystwyldfyre.com – put I Want a PEA in the subject line and be sure to let me know why you feel it would serve you at this time!  (PEAS will be scheduled over the next several weeks for the winners!)

Sometimes we forget our connection to Source and we need a little assistant to Remember that we can be WYLDLY ABUNDANT – be sure to click that link and connect with the program that I did with Nicole Whitney of News For the Soul Radio fame if you would like to re-connect to your birthright of living a WYLDLY ABUNDANT life!

The Visionary Vibe Report – Being Strong In Your Boundaries

Strong Boundaries and clarity around what does or does not work for you as you navigate your ascension journey are up right now in the vibe.  Understand that boundaries are a vital and crucial part of self-care.  During an earlier post much was discussed about the importance of self- care during this time of great shift – just as you are advised by your “flight” attendants that in the event of an emergency you are to put the oxygen mask on yourself first – you are being advised to put care of the self first now.  Exercise your ability to say no to others, to carve out time and space to nourish yourself, to go within and to hook “up” to your Source for guidance, healing, information and inspiration.

All around the effects of the dismantling of an old paradigm are being felt – it can be quite easy to get “caught” up in the fear matrix.  The habits of complaining and feeding negative experiences with your personal energy whether it’s just thinking about “THE STATE OF THINGS!” or if it’s verbalizing and colluding with the consciousness that feeds negativity and fear into the mindstream no longer serves.  The mental body is being called into alignment with the TRUE state of reality which is that you, each of you, individually has the power to create your own personal reality and this reality it predicated upon the thoughts you think and how you choose to spend  your energy.
Thought forms that re-inforce low self esteem, lack consciousness, affirmation of failure, worry or any other negative energetic will IMMEDIATELY begin to manifest – you must have noticed by now that the ‘feedback’ loop has accelerated – instant Karma’s gonna get you as John Lennon said!  Now more than ever it is imperative to CLEANSE AND PURIFY your mind – to FOCUS AND CONCENTRATE on what it is that you desire to create for yourself.  Now more than ever it is TIME, TIME, TIME to LOSE THE MIND and find the HEART! Your HEART, your TRUE heart will always be providing you with positive steps in the direction of your destiny.  Some of these steps may very well include disengaging from relationships or situations that are dragging you back, bringing you down or triggering old thought forms that no longer serve.

Use these triggers – they are a gift for you to see – what are you adding your energy to?  Are you feeding your energy to the new beginnings? or  Are you energizing what is falling apart?   What is falling apart can be used to your advantage if you honor it, if you give gratitude for all that has led you to this place, if you willingly shed it all in one piece (call on the energies of SACHAMAMA – The Great Serpent to teach you how to shed easily and gracefully).  When you shed in this way the energy that is released is broken down and fed back to you for your use in fertilizing the seeds of the new creation that is calling to be born through you.

Set boundaries – be clear on what you want – speak your truth.  HOLD the boundaries from a space of honoring yourself – not a defensive posture that creates a wall – instead from an open hearted space that says I love myself so much that I’m going to take excellent care of myself which will then allow me to bring my best self to share with others.  Don’t you think the others who are in your life looking to connect with you really want the best you?  Don’t you think it makes sense that if you are going to connect in business, in parenting, in friendship or in romance that the best you will create the best experiences?  If you are weak, exhausted, spent, confused, angry, depressed – who really wants to connect with that energy???  Only YOU (as Smoky the Bear would say) can fight forest fires.  In the event of an emergency place the oxygen mask over your face first before trying to help others.  It’s TIME!

Remember that setting clear boundaries can also be considered creating sacred space – sacred space within which you are able to RECEIVE.  It is only when you carve out time and space for yourself and yourself alone that you are able to truly receive at the deepest levels – healing, intuition, activations, attunements, inspiration, rewiring.  You who are lightworkers have been giving so much for so long.  The time to RECEIVE is NOW.  In the creation of sacred space for yourself, in the setting of clear boundaries, in the setting aside of time to receive – whether it’s a morning where you sleep in or an evening with a hot bath or an afternoon in meditation or a morning walk in the woods – you open the door for Spirit to come in and repair & replenish, rejuvenate and resource you so that you are prepared and ready for the next phase of ascension work that will be initiated.

Sharing Sweet Success – The Honey Party Episode #8

 

 

Today I’m dressed up as a BEE for the Honey Party!! What better way to celebrate than to wear a costume honoring part of my medicine lineage.   My first shamanic teacher Catherine Amsden of Spiral Touch Healing in Kittery Maine has bee as her one of her personal totems so when it was time for me to receive my lineage stone for my mesa (medicine bundle) the one she gave me had a bee emblazoned on it. 

The bees are such wonderful creatures – they move effortlessly from flower to flower collecting the pollen and just being bees.  In the process though they provide an invaluable service to ALL OF NATURE – without the bees moving from plant to plant and flower to flower virtually all of our fruits and vegatables would disappear.  Not only do they pollinate the food supply but they also create the amazing elixir that I’ve been sharing with you in each of these Honey Parties!  The bees are being of service by being themselves and by sharing their gifts and working together towards the common good of the whole hive.  We could really take a lesson from them in the fine art of working together.

One way I like to contribute to the common good is by volunteering to serve for non-profit organizations.  This year I’m treasurer of the L’il Iguana Children’s Safety Foundation (funny I mention the treasurer thing twice in the video and once here in the blog – three times is the charm I guess!)  If you care about the safety of children this is one FABULOUS organization.  I have a personal desire to see that Lil Iguana’s work is supported and spread throughout the world.  Every message that comes through from these wonderful people is a gift to the children.  Please if you have a few extra pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters or even better LOTS O BUCKS and you are looking for a really great cause that will directly benefit children then this is the charitable foundation to consider tithing to this year!  Please make a donation to continue this great work.

This whole idea of giving is a very important concept in the realm of success – giving it all you’ve got, loving what you are doing so much that you’d give it away, giving of your time & energy to others who are in need, and never ever giving up!  Giving to yourself is also incredibly important – it’s vital to know when you need to have some support, some love, some nurturing, some respite and to give yourself a break.  As we approach the season of giving — start with some THANKS giving to you. 

You are the central star in the constellation of your life and you must appreciate the power and the wisdom and the energy that you bring to the table.  Take some time today to do something really wonderful for yourself.  Maybe it’s a simple as having a spoonful of honey to celebrate all the sweetness that is you!

 
Thinking about what you are going to be giving and receiving this holiday season?  Think about the gift of self -improvement – Starting November 11 join me for any one or all of four free calls that I’m giving called Everything is Changing and You Can 2!   These calls are to introduce you to a powerful new program that will be starting up at the beginning of next year.   Hope you decide to join me!  Enjoy your sweet success!
