There are times when we are overwhelmed by a situation, our emotions running wild. We may be afraid, paralyzed, don't know what to do, can't think clearly enough to begin to look for a solution, a way out of the mess.

This powerful guided meditation is for such times.

It will help you:
-- Calm down
— Identify the problem clearly
-- Open to receive divine love and guidance
-- Get in touch with your power and strength
— Put things in perspective
— Become aware of the many options and resources you have available to you
-- Identify steps to take right away to make things better
-- Open to new possibilities for your life, a higher vision, a whole new level of being in the world

The divine always wants the best for us. Hard times are big learnings that lead to more life fulfillment. Sometimes they are impetus for us to reevaluate our life and change course entirely.
​
Know you will get through this. Divine Love is on your side.

Breathe. Move your body as a way for emotions not to get stuck and cycle.

Be kind and loving with yourself. There are answers. You will find them. You will get on the other side of this.

Listen often. Each time you listen you will discover something new, understand the situation better, feel stronger, see more options, know what steps to take.

​You’re all worked up. Your muscles are tight. You know you need to relax. And you do! With this guided meditation.

When we are relaxed, we have a sense of well-being; we are centered; we think clearly, do better work; we make better decisions. Most of all, we are open and receptive to inner guidance.

We start the meditation with simple body movements (while sitting), initiating the relaxation process — moving our attention from the outside world to ourselves and our inner world.

Next, we go deeper by becoming aware of how we are doing, noticing if there is anything we need or want giving us the opportunity to take action to take care of ourselves.

We breathe, nice slow breaths.

Then we relax each part of our body, going into deeper relaxation.

We complete by entering a state of deep divine peace.

The gentle voice of Jackie Affsa will guide you, along with Thaddeus’ beautiful music.

The meditation is about 17 minutes. About 13 minutes of just music follow. If you can, continue to listen as a way to continue to relax and stabilize the new energies.

Everything about you exists as energy in the human aura, the human energy field. Your thoughts exist as energy, as do your feelings and your past, and many other aspects of your being.

The main two energies are your human experience and your divine identity.

We are divine energy. We cannot separate ourselves from who we are. We always have access to our divine wisdom. However, when there is an abundance of thoughts and emotions and when those become dominant, they occlude perception and the divine.

One of the purposes of meditation is to help us move away from the human experience and into a space of being in the divine.

In the divine, there is peace, love, joy, security, a sense of permanency without fear and anxiety.

When we work through our human troubles, we automatically become more of who we are in truth, boundless beings of light journeying through eternity.

When we are going through hard times, if we persevere in learning what there is to learn from the situation -- and sometimes it may take us a while to move to looking at the whole thing from that perspective -- we will rise above it and into a bigger truth, a bigger reality, greater understanding of the situation. That's the fastest way to go through hard times, face the thing directly and see what you need to understand, how you need to change, what you need to see.

At other times we're just feeling low, in a funk, slumping around and that is a good time to see some comedy.

Laughter has the amazing ability to change our energy and lift us up. Suddenly, we are alive again. If something has troubled us, we suddenly see it as not such a big deal. We are refreshed, re-energized and can get into life again with verve.

Of course, if there is a deeper problem, we will have a good break from our difficulty. Not dwelling on the problem, gives our higher self an opportunity to orchestrate solutions to present to us when, feeling better, we'll be in a receptive state of mind.

So, make sure you laugh, one way or another -- with friends, seeing a live comedy show or even seeing a show online, like the one I have for you below. I think you'll like it.

We all make decisions all the time. And there are times when it is really hard to decide. You may do the old left and right column, the pros and cons, process. That can work many times. At other times after going through that process, you may still feel undecided.

We can use our rational mind to analyze the situation as a way to figure out the best way forward. We are also aware of our emotions around the decision, and we can list those.

And, still, neither may offer a resolution as to what to do, which option to choose.

When neither the mind nor the emotions offer a way forward something else may be happening.

The emotions you are feeling about the situation may stem from childhood programing, not your authentic self. Childhood programing offers limited options, lets us feel and see only what was allowed in childhood. The reality is many more options are available that you cannot perceive from childhood programming.

If this is happening, you need to become aware of your deeper truth, your soul truth.

If childhood was difficult, many times we were simply not allowed to feel our feelings, know our deepest truth. What we usually feel is feelings of reaction to our difficult situation, not our deepest truth.

In order to make a decision that feels right, we have to feel our deepest soul truth. We have to get honest to the core.

That can be difficult. Talking to someone you trust may be a way to feel safe enough to feel your deepest feelings, feel your deepest truth.

There are many reasons why you would not want to feel your deepest truth. If you did, you'd be acting in a way that's best for you -- and that wasn't allowed growing up. Knowing your deepest truth can be scary because you might realize you have to do things that are difficult. Doubt comes up; are you sure you really want to do this? You'd be stepping into a whole new world acting on your own behalf, your own best interests -- and that wasn't allowed in childhood. Childhood programing is all about keeping you where you always were, what was allowed for you to feel, be and do. You weren't allowed go grow past that allowable limit.

Knowing this, you move forward, anyway, supporting yourself in living your truth and seeking help when you need to stay on the journey of becoming your true self, authentic self, soul self.

So, when you are trying to make a decision and no choices seem right, look deeper, see if you can find a deeper truth. Giving it a little time helps. Your soul self will come in and help you see more deeply. And talking to someone you trust and with whom you feel safe will also help.

If you can, hold off on choosing something just to choose. If you're not excited and feel freed by the choice, wait. Go deeper. Find your deepest truth and then move forward.

Some of us were never told we can have a great life. No one said, “You can have a wonderful life! I believe in you! You can be happy. You can be fulfilled. You can be successful. You can prosper . . . .” So, we live what was allowed—without even being aware we are doing so. We stumble along as if under a dark cloud that seems to press down on us. We see other people living a great life, but deep down we believe that will never happen for us. Usually we are not aware of this belief. But we do feel its effects: anger, frustration, depression, discontent, and so on. We struggle.

Of course it is not true that you can’t have a great life. And you can begin to know this truth right now and begin to change everything.

You ARE allowed to have all wonderful things in life! You can thrive and prosper. You can have joy and happiness. You can experience love in all its forms. You can have a great life!

These affirmations are based on the assumption that you never believed you were allowed to live a happy, fulfilled life. Not being encouraged, we didn’t know we were even allowed.

A set of affirmations will repeat for a total of 31 minutes. Just music follow for about 6 minutes
Listen to the affirmations as often as you can. Repetition is good. It will begin to open you up, create an aura around you, and your life will begin to change.

The beautiful voice of Moxie LaBouche will support you in creating a wonderful life for yourself, along with beautiful music.

Do events in the past pain you? You have regrets? You wish you said something different, did something different? You wish you took action instead of doing nothing?

The purpose of this guided meditation is to heal those painful memories.

You will be guided to look closely at the incident, come to know the cause, the reason you couldn't do what you now wish you did or didn't do. You will learn a lot about yourself, perhaps touch on childhood/core issues. You will be given the opportunity to see the incident from the perspective of Divine Intelligence.

The more you listen, the deeper you will go, gain greater understanding of the situation, yourself, and the larger Reality. Listen until you come to a place of peace.

By making the effort to heal, you will be taking a gigantic, important step in your growth. You will create more room for joy, love, peace and expansion. You will assure health and well-being on all levels.

In life, we do the best we know how given who we are at the moment. We are learning and growing. And that's how it's supposed to be. The Divine loves us exactly as we are with no criticism, only acceptance and compassion. You will be encouraged to love yourself.

The comforting voice of Dawn McLelland will guide you along with beautiful music.

The guided meditation is about 28 minutes. 10 minutes of just music follow. If you can, continue to listen as a way to settle the energies.

Headphones are recommended.

Sometimes we're in a funk for no apparent reason. That's a good time to watch comedy. It will change your energy quickly, uplift you and give you a new perspective on everything.

Issues come up in life that we have to stop and take the time to look deeply and heal. That's a sure way to stay healthy emotionally, physically, mentally and spiritually. But then there are times when we're just off, nothing that really needs deep searching, just a tweak in the energy system. That's a good time to do simple things like go out for coffee, take a walk, see a friend and watch some comedy.
