How Was the December 21, 2012 Shift for You?

I have a question for you:  Did the Shift that occurred on December 21, 2012 change your life the way you thought it would?  Have things been different for you in a good way?  Or have things appeared to become more challenging?  Or does it appear that nothing at all is any different?  Have you wondered if you’ve been “left behind?”

 

Whether you know it or not, things have changed in a big way!

While we have moved into the new paradigm, for many people, there appears to be a lag time in experiencing the peace and empowerment that we all expected.

I have personally experienced some interesting challenges myself!  I even found myself judging myself for not “having it all together!”  What I finally realized is that there was still some inner “stuff” that needs to be released.  And it’s coming up quickly in order to be healed.

 

What I am seeing, energetically, is a massive swell of energy – much like a tsunami.  And like a tsunami, as the waters rush in, everything in its path is being shifted, and moved, dislodging tenuous foundations that aren’t rooted in the frequency of this paradigm and  pushing to the surface everything that no longer serves us.  In some ways, we are being forced to look at everything that is not a match to our true, aligned selves.

Because the multi-dimensional part of us has already made this shift, and has done so easily and fully (because for the most part it is out of body), as this tsunami moves in and brings everything  to the surface,  it feels even worse that it did prior to the shift!  What has made things feel even more painful is our expectations that after the shift everything would gently and easily fall into place and we’d be living our lives happily ever after!

However, what I have found is that since it is all up and “in our faces,” we can now simply and easily remove it – much like skimming off pond-scum to reveal the cool, fresh, clean, deep water below.

In actuality, the pain and challenges we have experienced are a gift.  (I know they don’t feel like gifts!!)  They are showing very clearly the next unconscious beliefs that need to be released and healed in order for us to create heaven on earth.  

 

There is still much to be done.  However, if you are like so many people with whom I have spoken over the last few weeks, you probably feel like just crawling into bed and giving up.  Or perhaps you may feel too exhausted to even think about doing any more work.  And you wonder and fear how much longer this will continue and how you will be able to pull out of this painful energy.  For many, it feels like an overwhelming task to even get out of bed some days!  How on earth can you possibly even think about adding one more thing and work through one more emotion on your own?

Or perhaps you feel like you’ve moved through the chaos and confusion, and are feeling a better, and you are now ready to truly create the life you’ve always desired!  

 

No matter where you are on the spectrum of transformation, I have decided to do something to powerfully uplift and transform the energy!  I’m starting  an eight-week group program to help you  – to help each of us – move through this energy, and create the joyous, centered, empowered life you want to create for yourself and your family.  I’ll lead and facilitate the work as we meet each week.  Together we will heal and transform.  You no longer have to do it alone!

This Quantum Soul Clearing 8-week transformational course begins Tuesday, January 29th, at 3:00 p.m. PT/ 4:00 p.m. MT/  5:00 p.m. CT/ 6:00 p.m. ET, and will run until March 19th.  Each call will run approximately 90-120 minutes.  And, of course, each call will be recorded for replay and download immediately if for some reason you cannot make the call in person.

The cost of this 8-week group coaching program is $399.  However, if you act quickly, between now and January 23rd, and use the coupon code of ICHOOSEME you’ll receive $100 off this powerful eight-week program.

Imagine spending 90 minutes every week for eight full weeks as we meet as a group to weed-out the most pressing, painful emotions and beliefs so that we can increase our personal energy, create greater personal empowerment, and deep fulfillment in our lives!  Imagine spending time every week finding your joy, your purpose and passion for life again – or perhaps for the first time ever!  How valuable would that be?

Because I want to be able to make this a powerful experience for everyone in the group, I am limiting the number that can participate, to only 30 people.  That way everyone will have a chance to work with me personally for laser-focused coaching that profoundly and powerfully impacts the whole group!  Seats are extremely limited, so don’t miss out on this opportunity to make a big shift that will impact the rest of 2013 and beyond.

Here’s to a transformed 2013 and powerful new beginning.

Many Blessings,

Unconditional Receiving

‘Tis the season of giving but when it comes to gifting, are we giving from our hearts without expectation of receiving, or is there something in obligation about having to buy something for everybody at this time? The more commercialized our society has become around the holiday season, the more we’re really manipulated into giving, giving, giving, without a thought. Let’s take a brief departure from the unconditional giving we all take part in and focus on its polar opposite: unconditional receiving.  We spend most of our lives being better givers than receivers but the time has come to embrace the willingness to receive.

But what does it mean to receive unconditionally? What are the boundaries in unconditional receiving? Many of us tend not to be open to this idea; while we find no issue with unconditional giving, the idea of receiving tends to make us uncomfortable. Imagine that your car has run out of gas and a friend offers to give you a ride home. You’ll probably start to fret in your mind about how much of an inconvenience this is to your friend, especially because your house is in the opposite direction from his. Did you, however, ever stop to think that your friend is giving you a gift with no strings attached…unconditionally giving? It’s in these moments that you need to stop, accept the gift for what it is, and be willing to receive it. The reality of the situation is that in order for you to get home, you simply must be willing to receive from the ride. Many of us don’t even realize the sort of price tag our minds attach to the receipt of a gift. We unconsciously take responsibility for someone else’s feelings or potential expectations, failing to realize that these assumptions may not even be real in that person’s mind; they may only be in your own mind. And even if that person actually has an expectation, you have to break free of that burden.  In doing so, you lead them to be responsible for whatever expectations they may have, leaving you to only be responsible for your own stuff. This awareness and willingness to receive, without concern of expectation on their part or your feelings of obligation to somehow reciprocate, will alleviate a great deal of undue stress.

Release the unnecessary stress from your life, and allow yourself to receive…without the burden of conditions. Simply stop and accept the gift without imposing your own perceptions of what might be expected back. Keep in mind that there’s something to be said about the law of attraction, and thus, the ability to be a good receiver is crucial to your ability to manifest in the world.

What’s Next?

When you’re done clearing and cleaning, you may find yourself asking the question: “What comes next?” This may lead you into crisis mode as you search for answers and start to question more: where are we really going with any of this? What’s the point of the entire game?

A figurative response to these questions is that you get to pass go and collect $200. But what does that really look like? Some of us think we understand and know where we’re going but do we really know? In my mind, the purpose is for the body and the soul is to fuse as one complete immortal unit, and in that process, learn how to be our own God or Goddesses so to speak. We’re here to create new worlds, paradigms, and universes…to be our own creators. In essence, our bodies are designed to be immortal. You may, however, ask, “What do you mean?” We come equipped with stem cells, which in my belief or in my understanding, are just there waiting to be directed where to go. The amazing thing is that every organism on the planet has a set of proteins that are produced in response to stress period. So the whole idea is if we change the stressor, we change the genetics; if we change the thought, we change the genetic expression and who’s to say we can’t change whether our body is capable of regeneration.

To some, there’s no question about the fact that we regenerate. If you get a cut, it heals. If you get burnt, it heals. Our bodies already have the innate knowledge of how to heal. The higher the frequencies of who we are in that sole expression, the more we can accept and express it. The more we embody or allow it to embody itself within our physical bodies, the easier it is to regenerate and to keep those genes happy and healthy with the cells reproducing the way they need to. Thus, it creates this paradigm, this awareness, this feeling or being of health, vitality and youthfulness.

It’s amazing how the mind itself actually can get in the way of what we instinctively know and feel. Our feelings really are the language of spirit, the language of source. Our mind is so powerful, and we’ve trained it away from our feelings in so many cases. The truth is that our feelings are really the power of creation. It’s the interface between thought and form or energy and matter. It’s the feeling; if you can bring the feeling into the body, then you’ve already manifested something.

So what is next? To start, we each get to connect with our conscious awareness, understanding and ability to interact as a multidimensional being. While we can be immortal in our physical bodies, we can choose to be aware of many different avenues or dimensions of expressions simultaneously. It seems that more people are really opening up to that reality and that paradigm. The veils between the worlds are getting thinner and thinner with greater or easier access and less interference between these multi-dimensions. Metaphorically speaking, the elevators always go to the infinite stories of that building; we just didn’t know that we had the pass key for all those floors. Once you become consciously aware of the “Oh, I’d like to go there” and see what’s happening feeling, you start to notice how what’s happening over here simultaneously affecting what’s going on over there.

As this new transformation becomes real, a new honoring will also take place. There will be a new level of honoring that we’ll each have for ourselves where we’ll free ourselves to be, explore, experience, and create. We’ll be able to do so in a space where others are also allowing themselves to honor themselves and thus, resulting in easily honoring others as well. The concept of competition is dissolving away as we come into a world where everybody recognizes and embraces that they have their own uniqueness. We’ll also all realize that it’s ok to be different because we’re all playing in that same sand box of honoring ourselves and honoring others.

Change

So much of the creativity and the expression that we have to bring forth may be resisted along the way. The energies that are building seem to be achieving some sort of critical threshold where resistance still lies. The cosmic energies, however, are building to a point where resistance is futile. It’s time to think gracefully into that next phase of expression and creativity that we’ve come here to burst forward. Imagine that the planet is supporting this process, like someone is holding your hand through it all. Let the shadow pieces come out, and allow them to return to you as you come into who you are. Be open to the opportunity to be who you are and take this journey of self knowledge and self actualization.

When on this journey, it’s vital to acknowledge where we’re at, even acknowledging that we have negative thoughts and feelings at times. The key is to stay with those negative thoughts and consciously choose a different thought and paradigm in the midst of it. Allow yourself to feel without fear or judgment. It’s easy to say, “Oh, geez! Here I am on my back. How am I going to handle this?” But try seeing it as an observation rather than a judgment, looking at things from a more rational perspective. That vantage point will permit you to say, “It is what it is. This is what I’m feeling so what do I want to create?” and get out of that place of blame, shame, and guilt. Try to determine what the gift is in that feeling and what you want to create from it. Choosing consciously what you want is where change begins.

With all the planetary support that we receive, one of the most practical ways of stepping in to making this change clear is to step back and be honest with yourself about what your heart is longing for. Look at all the triggers that are showing up in your life, all the buttons that are being pushed, to determine exactly what that is. Imagine a spider web where your heart’s desire is sitting at the middle of the web with all the strands radiating outward. At times, something comes along and tweaks that strand, serving as a trigger because there’s a piece in that strand that’s going directly into your heart. Somewhere on the strand there’s a wound that you haven’t nurtured fully, gained its wisdom, and incorporated it into the fullness of who you are. As you look at each strand, you get closer and closer to truly knowing what it is that your hearts long for.  As you get the courage to step onto each of those strands, you can look directly at the wound that’s been triggered and fully own every aspect of your reaction. You can ask yourself, “Why am I reacting here?”  The clarity and the power of cosmic alignment is if we have the courage to ask this very question. The universe, in turn, will reply “Oh! You’ve finally asked that question?” and if we do that, we’re going to get the answers placed right in front of us: the acceptance piece (where you get the clarity of what that wound is and don’t run away from it).

Acceptance

The idea of acceptance can be challenging to us all at times. True acceptance dictates that we’re able to receive the present moment and the feelings (including discomfort) that come with doing so. Compare your moments of acceptance to how you feel when you’re in a place of non-acceptance or resistance to what’s going on. Think about how those two places differ and consider how you can make the shift from resistance to acceptance.

All too often we become consumed by changing our circumstances when we should simply make an effort to become conscious of being present and not get caught up in trying to make everything different. We talk about manifesting, and we’d all like to manifest abundance, health, and a great new world.  At some point, however, we have to stop and accept where we are, being able to be comfortable and grateful for that place and in that energy. We need to feel and accept that energy, being able to burst forward from that place of acceptance with “I’m ok where I am”. Are you able to accept in this way?

As a society, it seems as if we’re bred to accept resistance in our everyday lives. Every commercial you see on TV is about a new wonderful way to not accept who you are (i.e. makeup and hair dye). Even the act of taking a painkiller to get rid of a headache is a sign of resistance; that headache represents of a non-acceptance of something at some level, whether you know something’s going on emotionally and mentally. There’s so much non -acceptance that it appears that we’re constantly pushing against ourselves. Somewhere in there, though, it feels like we’re pretty close to being ready as a society to open the gate and stop pushing.

Humanity has suffered from multiple personality syndromes for many, many thousands of years. We have the flesh which is carnal and sinful, the mind where the ego resides, and then we have a spirit which is just kind of here waiting to live out its full potential. We’ve been taught for thousands of years to embrace this split personality but now, it seems enough of us have begun to realize that we are this energy, this life, this creative force and that we are not fractured. It’s an experience, an illusion of being fractured that we’ve been creating for ourselves but in actuality, our intellect and bodies exist because we are eternal, spiritual, energy creative beings. We are fusing the three (flesh, ego, and spirit) back together and in essence, doing what a good shrink would do, pulling all the parts back together and fulfilling our potential.

Consider this scenario: what if I was the creator, creating this experience of life as me, playing as me and the perspective I play? Think about the moments that you really struggle the most with accepting, and ask yourself what if I’m creator. Your focus will completely change because you’ll no longer be stuck on the infinitesimal details, the “everything that’s wrong that I’d love to fix” minutiae. It all comes back to considering things from a much bigger and broader perspective.

Acceptance is like the WD40 of life, and in your moments of acceptance, there’s no resistance once you decide that you don’t need to do this. Even when things aren’t quite going as planned or as you hoped, allow yourself a moment of surrender and say out loud, “I’m ok!” Feel the flow of energy move through your body, through each cell. Allow yourself to be in a different space than you were in just two minutes before, live in that ok-ness and place of acceptance, and start your day anew.

Looking at Fear from a Larger Perspective

Our own perspective may limit us in our paths to a limitless reality. One way to rise above this issue is to look at the fear from a larger perspective. Think about the big places in your life that were obstacles. Instead of letting them overwhelm you, transform them into simple challenges that you can deal with more easily. This stands true when we’re involved in drama, when there’s no money in the bank, our marriages are falling apart, we’re fighting with our co-workers, or whatever it happens to be. We can easily get sucked into believing that third dimensional perspective is all there is; you can, however, just take a step back and zoom the camera out. For example, if being in the thick of the drama equals one foot, take your camera (or your perspective) out to a 1,000 feet and look at things from this larger place. This may challenge your imagination but you can learn how to go there.

Once you’ve expanded your perspective to a 1,000 feet, challenge yourself to take it to 10,000 feet and then 50,000 feet.  God or the universe (whatever you choose to refer to that over lighting intelligence that rules this place of which we are all a part of and we are connected to) is not limited to that third dimensional, “stuck in your face” stuff that we’re faced with. And ultimately, there’s always a bigger perspective; it allows us to see that thing that’s challenging us at that very moment is exactly the exercise that we get to evolve as a soul, to expand our conscious awareness, and to move into a place where we can actually start to see ourselves as part of the oneness.

Picture yourself looking at a leaf, and then imagine yourself moving into space, looking back at Earth. What was once so predominant and consumed your vision when you were looking at the leaf (or the troubled child that you don’t know how to deal with), when you’re looking at the whole planet, is much easier to sit back, take a breath, and let it go. You can simply say to yourself “I don’t have all the answers right now. I don’t have the full perspective, and I know there’s more to this. Whatever happens, happens for a reason, and that reason is always 100% of the time to serve my highest good because I am part of the creation.” When you’re sitting here on the planet in your little office or in your house, it’s really easy to feel that you’re alone. But when you zoom yourself out to look at the whole planet, you know there are six, seven billion of us on that planet. It gives you a whole different perspective of where things are. Just step out of the drama, and once you do, it’s much easier to ask yourself those questions that can bring you back into that space of what’s really important to you (i.e. what are you values? what are you endeavoring to create in this world?) and find that peace within yourself. When we find that peace within, we can begin to create it in the world. There will not be peace in this world until there’s peace in every heart, and it begins with each one of us.

What is Quantum Soul Clearing?

What is quantum soul clearing? To answer your question, just consider a time of playful co-creation where you can abandon all the rules and limitations that keep you living in fear and what you can imagine into being if allowed to do so. Think about expanding and proceeding what is possible for ourselves, our communities, our countries, and our earth. There is a new earth and a new way of being, awaiting to be born right now, and you just need to dream it into being. Overcoming fear and limitations is the essence of quantum soul clearing.

One of the first steps to weaving and dreaming this earth into being is to really look at what holds you back. It starts with the idea of exploring choices, the power of your choices, and becoming more comfortable and aware about what your choices are, even those unconscious ones that you don’t remember making. You also have to start observing your patterns, observing where your fears are and walking through those fears into that powerful place. Once you access that place, then your dreams are more easily woven, allowing you to step into a place of creativity.  The only limitation that really exists in this universe is your imagination, and thus, you must be willing to take yourself to a place where you can reconnect with that imagination. Give yourself permission to go back to that playful place.

This concept is coming up increasingly for many people, whether they’re consciously on a journey of personal development and spiritual expansion or not. With the current situations in the world, in our individual lives, and with all the systems that support our individual lives, we really don’t have much of a foundation left anywhere to hold onto. In turn, this creates a great deal of fear, especially as our economic systems began to crumble. The result is increasing instability and fear, leaving people to wonder:  “Oh, my gosh! Is everything that I’ve worked for still going to be here?” As we look at those fears and look at what’s underneath them, that’s where the true power lies.  You’ve got to work the underlying emotions to combat a reality around us that is limiting in nature from the fear.

You’ve got to challenge yourself daily to look underneath the fear and then to look beyond it. As you face it head on, mark each footstep towards the direction of what your biggest fear is in that moment because it is there that your biggest gifts lie; this is true for all of us. If we can actually walk through our fears, there’s a limitless reality or infinite potential that awaits us.

Unconditional Receiving

This week on my radio show on Awakened Radio, my co-host, Susan Kern, and I were discussing the concept of unconditional receiving.  I’ve long been familiar with the concept of unconditional love, unconditional acceptance, and unconditional giving.  However, unconditional receiving was something I’d never given much thought to.

This is the season of giving.  It is a time when we gift money, items, time, service, all kind of giving is going on.  We’re even taught that it is better to give than to receive.  But if we are all givers, then who’s receiving?  Because in the cycle of giving and receiving, it has to go both ways!

Turns out that the more thought I gave the subject, the more twisted up my mind became!  Almost immediately, my mind went to, “Well there are no free lunches.  There’s always a price to pay.”  Wow!  There’s something to clear I thought!

The next thought was along those lines:  “Well if there is always a price tag or a debt – whether implied by the giver, or pre-supposed by me – then is receiving a gift a form of being manipulated?”  Followed closely by, “If I am unconditionally receiving, then am I energetically manipulating others or the Universe?”

Which brought up all kinds of stuff about:

  1. Obligations:  Am I always obligated to return a favor, gift in return, what the social conventions for reciprocation are, etc., etc., etc!
  2. Manipulation:  Is unconditional receiving a form of manipulation and/or is it completely out of integrity?  Am I being manipulated by others when they give and I receive?  Am I consciously or unconsciously manipulating others by my receiving?  What are the rules? Where are the boundaries?
  3. Family relationships and interactions:  What are my relationships with my immediate family members?  Do I feel obligated to constantly give rather than receive?  If I give, am I over-giving and unable to receive in return?  How does that fit in to my self-worth/ self-esteem?  Do I give because I am “buying” love or manipulating family members to act or behave in a certain way?  Do I reject freely given gifts and acts of kindness and abundance because I don’t feel worthy to receive or because I cannot reciprocate with something of equal or greater value?
  4. Friendships:  In my friendships, have I taken without giving?  Have I given with the intent of manipulating or obligating someone in return?  If I’ve received, has it really been given unconditionally or were there un-seen strings that were attached that may have damaged the relationship over the years?
  5. Business relationships:  If I receive something of value does that obligate me to act in a certain way or reciprocate no matter what?  If I cannot receive unconditionally, how much abundance and wealth am I unconsciously refusing?  How am I limiting my business?  How am I over-giving in my business so that people “like me” or feel obligated in some way?
  6. The Universe:  If the Universe/God/Goddess/Creator (fill in your own version of Deity here)  is all powerful, all loving, and all giving, why am I not receiving – and where are my beliefs and blocks to receiving?  If I cannot accept a compliment without feeling uncomfortable, can I truly receive other gifts – money, service, love, health, etc. – either??
  7. And is what is right for one person not right for another?  Who is to say that one person’s receiving anything is more right or wrong than my receiving – or vice versa?
  8. What does it say about a person if they are unconditional receivers?  Are they greedy?  Are they ungrateful?  Do they simply expect everyone to give them everything?  Does unconditional receiving make you lazy?  A Horrible Person?  A mooch or a bum?

And so my mind went.  Around and around and around.  In one conversation I had the realization that if I am receiving something with the expectation that there is some type of price tag, I cannot be in the present moment (pun intended), because I have already projected myself into a future where I’m already in debt for an unknown amount!  Talk about messing with my financial abundance energy – both now and in the future!  Yikes!

Honestly, I haven’t been able to fully answer most of the questions this topic has ignited.  They seem somehow subjective.  What is appropriate in one circumstance may not be appropriate in others.  This concept has sparked deep debates with my clients, family and friends, as I’ve tried to get my mind completely around the concept of unconditional receiving.

Is it even possible?  I mean we breathe free air, have free sunshine, have free thoughts (or are they really??), God’s grace (perhaps, some say).   What else in your life has NO price-tag at all or is completely free?  And if you think about it for a minute (saying you’ve thought of something that IS free – is it REALLY?)  For a minute, as I was writing this paragraph, I thought, “I move freely.”  But for me that’s not even completely true – at least not like it was when I was a kid or teenager!

Can we, even for a single day, simply say, “Thank you” for all the things we receive without feeling in some way obligated to reciprocate?  And if we cannot do so, how are we limiting ourselves?  What abundances are we turning away with our belief structures?  If we cannot freely accept a hug, a smile, a free lunch, how on earth are we going to allow in  millions of dollars of financial abundance?  How can you win the lottery if you cannot even allow someone to buy you a cup of coffee without having to buy them a cup and a doughnut too?

I would LOVE to hear your thoughts about this.  How has this concept of unconditional receiving made you realize the limitations we’ve allowed ourselves to play under?  I really want to hear from you this week.  Please email me at Michelle@QuantumSoulClearing.com with your thoughts, your insights, your ideas.

Join me Saturday, December 1st on www.AwakenedRadio.net/livechatroom at 11 a.m. PT/ 12 noon MT/ 1:00 p.m. CT/ 2:00 p.m. ET for an hour of Quantum Soul Clearing Healing the Holidays.  We’ll be talking about my book and doing some live clearing work!

And then again on Sunday, December 2nd (and every Sunday)  at 4:00 p.m. PT/5:00 p.m. MT/ 6:00 p.m. CT/ 7:00 p.m. ET for The Quantum Magic Hour with my co-host, Susan Kern as we talk more about this subject of Unconditional Giving.

Truth In Politics – Or What Is Our Responsibility?

This last week, citizens from the United States voted into office the next  President of the United States of America.  For months prior to the actual vote – and for several days since – the bickering, mud-slinging, wrangling and chaos of that process dominated the airwaves, facebook, twitter, email, and every imaginable communication imaginable.  The stakes were high!  Everyone was polarized in a way I’ve never before seen to this degree.  I knew of no one who didn’t have VERY strong views on who should be the next president.  It seemed like little of the rhetoric was based in fact.  Had it been, there wouldn’t have been as much insanity, in my opinion.

Each party put forth scare tactics and their plan of action to change the course of our economy(!), job creation(!), health care(!), social services(!), food labeling (!) and judicial systems(!).  (Yes I added the exclamation point to make my point.  lol)  Every system in our country was looked at, debated at length (OK ad nauseum, actually!) and picked apart.  Statistics and figure were spouted and skewed, depending on who was talking.  The babble was deafening chaotic and obnoxious to almost everyone!

No matter who you voted for, the theme was that either Romney or Obama had ultimate control of the outcome of ANY discussion.  That they would PERSONALLY make all those campaign promises happen come hell or high water (no offense, New York and New Jersey).

Which is NOT the truth! 

The truth is that the President of the United States, although a powerful world figure, is ONE man.  He is, by and large, a figure-head in many respects.  He is not a king with unlimited power!  In fact, (despite one former president’s grab for unlimited power) he is bound by the U.S. constitution to hold a BALANCE of power within the government – and his office is only one component.  He is the leader and can make recommendations, but he’s not the person making the laws.

The truth is that our representatives and senators are the people that pass the laws and bills that govern our country, determine how and where our taxes are spent; how those taxes are collected (and at what levels); and which departments under the arm of the federal government are granted those monies.  The president may have the final approval on some things – but he is NOT the person making and issuing orders and arranging things to his own liking!  He can propose bills, but it is up to Congress to pass those bills.  It’s easy to make one person responsible in our minds, because he’s the most public figure.  It’s harder to make an entire body of people responsible, because there are so many of them and because we don’t get personally involved in the process!

And we haven’t even addressed all the secret deals that go on behind closed doors and in the darkened hallways of our nation’s capital by lobbyists and special interest groups!  They appear to have extraordinary influence regarding votes.  They seem to be able to buy power and position for their own purposes that have NOTHING to do with the best interests of United States citizens.  (But that is probably a rant for another time.)

What is important here, is that we need to take personal responsibility for the decisions we make about who our represents us and what we will tolerate!  We, as the citizens of the United States, need to hold them personally accountable for the decisions they make on OUR behalf.  This is a democracy, which means OF THE PEOPLE, BY THE PEOPLE, FOR THE PEOPLE!  I think we have forgotten that.

Which brings me to my next point.  If we are electing officials who are self-serving, corrupt and not serving the public’s interests, we need to look in the mirror.  Our elected officials are a reflection of us as a collective.  If we have officials who are not acting in our best interests, why are we electing them?  Why are we not demanding better candidates?  Why are we not willing to require better than what we have been getting? Are we involving ourselves in the political process so that we are informed of what is really happening?  Why are we not demanding – and getting – plainly worded bills that have single initiatives?  Why are we allowing legislation and house bills that are thousands of pages long – that NO ONE reads (and many of us can’t!) that are packed with pork and special favors that have nothing to do with the bill?  But more importantly, how are the actions of those who represent us in government the same as our own in our daily lives?

Here are some tough questions to ask, if we are to get better political representation in the future:

How are we out of integrity and willing to take short-cuts on fiscal policy, military policy, banking policy, and education policy within our own lives?  We have to BE what we our leaders to be!  It is that simple.  Because they represent us, they ARE us.  And that might be the most uncomfortable awareness we have to make.

  •       Are we acting in honesty and integrity at all times in our personal lives?
  •       Are we committed to the highest service for all in everything we do each and every day?
  •       Are we willing to balance our own checkbooks, and be fiscally responsible?
  •       Are we peaceful toward ourselves, our loved ones and each other – or are we at war?
  •       Are we willing to be supportive and be of enlightenment in every aspect of our lives?
  •       Are we acting as leaders?  Because in truth, each and every one of us really ARE a leader.  There is always someone who looks up to you and is impacted by you in some way.

I believe that it is all an “inside job.”  Until we can heal the inner wounds that prevent us from being in full alignment with ourselves, and create the peace, prosperity, honesty and integrity within, we will continue to attract “leaders” who are not really leading us where we want to go!

The new paradigm that is being ushered in beginning in 2013 will not allow us to bring with us the old paradigm energies of hate, discontent, bigotry and self-serving energies.  We have a unique opportunity these last few weeks of 2012 to look at what is no longer serving us individually and collectively.

I hope you’ll join me for a group experience of cleaning up and clearing out the past.  Please go to www.QuantumSoulClearing.com/2012cleanup for more information about how you can participate.  Time is short.  2013 is the beginning of extraordinary opportunities for evolution, transformation and joy.  Please don’t miss out!  Let’s use the impetus that is remaining in 2012 available to us to make this world what we want it to be!

Many Blessings,

Michelle

Clearing 9/11

 

Tuesday was September 11, 2012. It was the 11th anniversary of the attacks on the Twin Towers in New York City. That there has been much controversy, pain and suffering throughout the world about this one event would be profoundly understating the obvious.

As I was preparing for bed the night before (OK, it was actually VERY early in the morning on the 11th!), I heard that “Voice” that often talks to me. “Michelle, you need to do a 9/11 clearing for your people.”

I thought, “Ummmmm… OK… it’s a bit late to put something together and get people to participate. But OK….” I mean I literally had less than 12 hours to put out the information and let people know! But when I get messages like these, I always know it’s not really a “request,” it’s more of a command. So I looked at my calendar and interestingly, there was a very rare 90-minute gap in my schedule for the next day! That might not have been a coincidence.

So I whipped up an email with the information and sent it out – only to have to resend it because the first email had the wrong times on it! I sent it to people I had been on telesummits with and posted to my facebook and twitter accounts. I even sent personal emails to people that I wasn’t sure were even on my mailing list! (My apologies to those who actually got three emails about the same thing!)

The call was scheduled for 2:30 p.m. my time, and as the time neared, I prepared for the call as I always do. I ground myself, do my connecting-in prayer that I teach all my students and listeners, and I asked for Divine Guidance and Assistance. I wasn’t certain what I was going to clear (I rarely am, when I do these calls), but as I got clearer and more centered, I knew that I had to clear 9/11, itself – which is what we did.

Like almost every American who was alive that day in 2001, I was horrified and traumatized by what was transpiring almost 2000 miles from where I lived. Being the Empath and Intuitive that I am, the collective energies were overwhelming. Within a short period of time I could no longer watch the news or listen to the radio. I cried often and in copious amounts, until I could begin to clear myself of the energies by which I was being bombarded and create a protective cocoon around myself.

After some time – and after each anniversary of the event – I continued to clear myself, and so I thought that doing this clearing would help others more than it would help me. I considered it a gift of service to the world.

I have to say that as the call began, I was shocked as tears immediately came to my eyes and I became very emotional. I’m sure that much of what I was feeling was the collective sorrow and trauma still active in people. But what astonished me even more was the immense flow of energy that began filling my body as I began doing the meditation and clearing work.

Within minutes, my whole body was shaking almost uncontrollably with the energy. You can hear it in my voice, throughout the call. It almost sounds like I’m scared to death, but it was a surge of pure, white, powerful LIGHT filling me and transmitting through me like I’ve never experienced before in my life. My whole body was trembling like I was freezing cold, although I wasn’t. It was more like a continual electrical shock wave flowing through me for almost an hour!

This clearing call was one of the most spiritual and humbling experiences I have ever had. I’m not sure I can put an exact description on my experience – and doing so might perhaps limit it. I just know that the flow of energy through me has transformed me.  I also know that this energy was captured and transmitted to everyone who was on the call and who has listened to the replay so far.  I’ve listened to the replay and I can feel the energy of it just as strongly as when it was happening.

I decided that the best way to share this call was make it into a video. Which I’ve done. I’ve posted it on Vimeo (YouTube only allows me 15 minutes at a time – which completely disrupts the whole process!) so that anyone who would like to hear and participate in the energy that is captured from that call can listen and receive healing. Here’s the link:

I’d love to hear your feedback and experiences after you’ve listened to the clearing work. Drop me a note at Michelle@QuantumSoulClearing.com – or share on my Quantum Soul Clearing facebook page https://www.facebook.com/quantumsoulclearing?ref=hl.  Please feel free to share the video with others.

Then get ready for the Universal Explosion of Joy and Transformation – which will be a clearing like this every day for 30 days! Imagine what transformation we could all experience as we clear some of the heaviest world energies for the entire planet! http://www.quantumsoulclearing.com/transformation
