Today's Affirmation

"Today, I will consider moving out of my comfort zone and seek other opportunities that offer me a breath of fresh air and a good challenge.  I will NOT be afraid to make a change."

The time to act is now.  January is coming to a close, and it is time to rise from the sofa of complacency and your life in your own hands and move onto something new and challenging. 

Don't be afraid.  Change is good.  Change is challenging, and maybe that is exactly what you need-a challenging change.

Wipe the dust off your shoulders where it has been collecting, and go out and seek a new path.  Keep in mind that just because you have been doing the same old thing for a long time and are very good at it, doesn't mean you won't be good at something else.

It may involve risk, but when was the last time you took the risk of moving out of your comfort zone?  Tuck your shirt in, straighten your tie, shine your shoes, and go out there and find the something wonderful and challenging that is waiting for you!

Love and Light,
Robin

"Today, I will expose my inner demons to the Light.  I will make a conscious effort to extricate them from life."

There are times in our lives when we need to face our personal demons.  These personal demons hide in the dark recesses of ourselves and lurk in the shadowy corners of our minds.  They are ever present, waiting for the right time to move out of the shadows and into our conscious minds.

Sometimes these demons are with us for our whole lives, and sometimes they creep in when we are not looking.  They are insidious creatures, and sink their fangs or claws so deep into us that we have a hard time disengaging ourselves from them.

It takes a strong commitment to loose ourselves from these creatures, a strong determination, and work that can tax us and tire us out.  But isn't the struggle to overcome better than living with these strangulating demons tightening their bony fingers around our necks and heart and minds?  It is.

When we see the ugly faces of these dark beings peeking around the corners, then we should yank them into the light where they have a hard time surviving.  We need to shine the light full on them, and work toward shrinking them down so small that they finally disintegrate.

Don't be afraid.  Don't let them immobilize you.  Fight against them.  Do everything it takes to subdue them and conquer them.  Seek whatever assistance is necessary to take control of your life and rid yourself of the demons that plague you.

If we can do this, if we can work toward conquering these inner demons, then we can release ourselves from their control and live a fuller, clearer, most satisfying and joyous life.

Take the first step today.  Move into the Light and drag those damn demons with you.  Shine the brightest light you can on them and let them melt away in the sun.

Be brave.  Ask the Universe for help.  Be committed and know that although the journey to freedom may be initially a bit painful, the rest of your life will not be.  You will be free to move forward and find joy in all things.

In Love and Light,
Robin

 

Today's Affirmation

 

"Today I will appreciate all of the people who have contributed to who I am today."

 

 

There are people that we have left behind in our lives-old lovers, best friends from school, good neighbors who have moved far away, family members.

 

But these people somehow find a way back into our lives years later.  And what a joy it is to reconnect with them.  For some of those people, it is as if we had never been separated.  We pick up the thread of the conversation just where we had left off.

 

Sometimes, when we have left words unsaid, it may be timely to finally communicate those words.  Recently, I found my high school boyfriend, my first love ever, on Facebook.  I was very hesitant to make contact with him.  But I finally did.  There were things sitting in my heart for a long time that had been unsaid, and I finally wanted to say them, and I am glad I did.

 

 

So, dear friends, welcome the communication for someone whom you thought was lost to you or whom you had left behind.  It just may be time to either rekindle the relationship or make amends or have amends made to you.

 

In Love and Light,

Robin

Today's Affirmation

"I will cultivate my talents and capabilities for the highest good of all concerned, in accordance with Divine knowledge, wisdom, and law."

Some people think that seeing the future or being able to "read people's minds" (no such thing.  there is only reading people's energy) is so very cool, but there is a huge responsibility that comes with having capabilities to read energy and see the implications of people's choices or see the outcome of events already set in motion. 

There are definite positives in the whole business, like giving people the information they need to move forward with their lives or make better informed choices or take better precautions or confirm the path that a person is traveling. 

There are some negatives as well; reading something hurtful in someone's energy or seeing a negative consequence or painful event, or knowing that someone's burden will get heavier can be difficult.

But when one works with energy, one must be able to take the positive with the negative; one must be able to create a balance between what one sees and how one transmits that information.

I cannot stress enough that no matter what, one must always "read" for another person's HIGHEST GOOD and the highest good of all concerned in the situation.  I cannot stress enough how vital it is to diplomatically and gently transmit the information or reinforce the positive in all information.

For myself, I made my commitment to Universe and to having capabilities to read energy with some personal guidelines:   (1) I would work from a strong spiritual base-for their highest good and highest good of all concerned, (2) I would only provide information that would help a person move forward on his/her physical/emotional/mental/spiritual path, (3)  I would always try to give the best guidance that I could,  (4) I would never violate someone's personal privacy and would wait to be invited/asked to provide information for them, (5) I would work with the person's spirit guides, loved ones who have passes over,  and any other angelic/celestial assistance who can assist the person in his higher path, (6)  I would always work from a place of love and light and respect for a person, (7) I would never use the capabilities with which I am blessed for any hurtful or negative purpose, (8)  I would never seek out information that Universe did not want me to have, (9)  I would always be humble and not sensationalize my talents and capabilities.

So, my dear friends,  if you have a capability to "see" things, yes, please, cultivate your capabilities, but cultivate them for the best possible reason and the best possible outcome.  Be mindful of the responsibilities that you have.  Be clear with yourself about why you are cultivating your talents and for what purpose you will use them.

In Love and Light,
Robin

Today's Affirmation

 

"Today I will emotionally detach from those people and events that cause me distress."

 

When we are faced with or experiencing circumstances that cause us a tremendous amount of stress or turbulent emotions, and we can't manage the situation any other way, it may be time to just DETACH from it.

 

Emotionally detaching puts distance between us and the situation.  It's a coping mechanism that helps us to protect ourselves from emotional duress. 

 

When we detach, it's like moving back a few steps to get out of the energy field of the situation.  It allows us a  more objective perspective, and thus, it makes it a little easier to see the situation for what it is and to remain unaffected by it.

 

It is not always so easy to do this;  it requires a strong focus and lots of talking to ourselves.

What I do is simply repeat over and over again to myself, "Detach.  Detach.  Detach.  Detach.  Detach."  And then I visualize myself moving back, stepping back our of range of emotional entanglement.

 

So, if you are feeling caught up in the riled up emotion of the situation, then just breathe and detach.  Keep at it and don't give up; before you know it, you will master your emotion and be able to clearly see and manage the situation-without being tied up in knots.

 

In Love and Light,

Robin

"Today I will carefully monitor my words to others and bite back hurtful words."

 

There are those days when people just piss us off and we want to strike back with our words and hurt them.  Sometimes we let ourselves go; we lose control over ourselves and our mouths and the words just come spewing out and drench anyone in their path.  (Been there, done that.)

 

But we need to remind ourselves that this brings no ultimate satisfaction or positive results.  Instead, when this does happen to us, after it is over, we feel horrible, ashamed, guilty. 

 

What is the best way to handle the situation?  Breathe and let it go.  Harder than we think to do sometimes.  For myself, I need to ask my Higher Power to take it away and make something good out it.  The negative can always be turned into something positive as long as we have a willingness to create it and let it happen.

 

Also, do a self check.  If this has happened, what needs within yourself are not being met?  What is at the root of the frustration?  Just recognizing the root can help us to come to terms with it.

 

So for today, monitor your words.  Think carefully before you speak-gauge your words for clarity, accuracy, self advocacy, and diplomacy.

 

In Love and Light,

Robin

"Today I will be patient and remind myself that all things happen precisely when they need to."

 

 

It is super hard to be patient, especially when it is something we want very much.  Making something happen before its time is like a farmer going out to his field and tugging on his crops to make them grow faster.

 

So, for today, breath deeply and steel yourself until the time is right for what you want to manifest into reality.

 

In Love and Light,

Robin
