<h2><span style="color: #800080;"><em>Are you scared to go to work?</em></span></h2>
<h2><em>Secretly angry that everyone doesn't take care of you like you take care of everyone around you?</em></h2>
<h2><em>Do you hide the fact that deep down you actually expect others to *not* have your back behind always preparing for the "worst case scenario"?<br />
</em></h2>
<p>Feeling emotionally safe in life is foundational to experiencing grounded health and wellness.</p>
<p>However, most of us have been taught from a very young age to be circumspect by harboring mistrust in others: we expect the worst, and not the best.</p>
<p><span style="color: #008080;"><strong>Watch this weeks 8-minute love letter video to explore Source's high-vibrational version of "safety first" and upgrade your mindset!<br />
</strong></span></p>
<p><span id="more-3088"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;"><em><span style="color: #800080;"><b>"I don't trust people."</b></span></em></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">This week, the guidance from Source is safety first. Safety first. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>Did you know that one of the most important things that you can have as your emotional set point is an internal center of safety?</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Let me explain. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>When we don't have an internal set point of safety, we look to our external world to feel safe.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">If we do not create our own safety by having an internal set point of safety, the external world, if she is unsafe, which unfortunately, more often than not she is, the external world is unsafe, we will then identify as being unsafe. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Example, going to work in an environment that you do not feel supported in or comfortable in. Because of that, that will create in you an identity, a self identity of, <em>"I don't trust people"</em> or <em>"I'm not trustworthy"</em> or <em>"My life is hard"</em> because the external environment creates the sense of unsafety, and then because you don't have your center, it's outside of you. </span><span class="s1">You, therefore, identify with your environment instead of with your center. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1">This week is all about centering, finding your alignment, in particular, strategically generating your version of feeling safe. It starts with you first.</span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> If you've ever meditated here at the dojo with me or on one of the conference lines, etc., one of the mantras, we have many mantras that come through the dojo, but one of the main mantras, especially during meditation time is, <em>"I am safe here. I am safe here."</em> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Telling that to your inner child.<em> "I am safe here."</em> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>The reason why we assert that as our mantra is to bring that feeling, that strategic feeling of safety, into you and assert that that is up to you. It's not dependent on the environment, regardless of your space.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">You are safe right here. Take a deep breath in and exhale.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-2049 size-full" src="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK.png" alt="TWEETOFTHEWEEK" width="462" height="86" srcset="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK.png 462w, https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK-300x56.png 300w, https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK-460x86.png 460w" sizes="(max-width: 462px) 100vw, 462px" /></p>
<h2 class="p1"><a href="http://ctt.ec/X0_47"><strong><span class="s1">Know this:Don't blame your circumstances. You can create your own sense of emotional safety in the world.</span></strong> </a></h2>
<h2 class="p1"><a href="http://ctt.ec/X0_47"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-2243" src="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/tweetbutton-300x129.gif" alt="tweetbutton" width="150" height="64"></a></h2>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>Can you imagine if only just for now what your life would be like if you felt safe, and I mean this emotionally, if you felt safe wherever you went?</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Rather than looking and searching and searching in other places and other people and other groups and organizations and food and wine and cigarettes and technology, rather than searching externally for an assertion of, <em>"I feel safe. I feel connected. I feel centered."</em></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> What if, no matter where you went, you felt safe? Here, in healing journeys with my students, that's what we really practice is bringing that and learning that, bringing that into us, that feeling of safety and then learning strategically how to generate feelings of safety no matter what because in spiritual truth you are safe, even if you decide to transition. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>You're still safe right here no matter where you are.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">This week in particular, Source wants you to know that, that before you go out into your day, remember safety first. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">What that's going to mean for you, and I'm hearing the oracle cards right now coming in the energy, what that specifically means is that safety is something I generate. Safety first. I create my sense of safety, and then from there, I enter the world. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1"> Wouldn't it be amazing to be with people who felt and generated safety no matter where you were?</span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">The oracle cards for this week are the archangel oracle cards deck, another Doreen Virtue deck, one of 19 and counting as we enter the new year. I'm so excited. If you ever want to donate, by all means, send me an email back or comment below. I'd be happy to receive. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong>Angels, what do we need to know about safety first?</strong>&nbsp;</span></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">They just said, <em>"Don't shuffle any further."</em> This is powerful. Courage. Isn't this gorgeous? </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Courage. Archangel Ariel says, <em>"Be courageous and stand up for your beliefs."</em> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">This is where we'll leave off this week. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>The guides say that safety is actually a belief, and you can choose to believe.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Stand up for believing that safety is within you and something that you can choose to create and generate for yourself. It takes courage to decide that this is your center rather than going with the tides and going with convention and saying, <em>"It's outside of you."</em> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>I don't know who this message is for, but I'm sharing it because the guides have said so.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">If this is for you, send me an email back and comment below. Let me know. Is this speaking to you? What's been coming up? </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>Have you been putting the responsibility of your safety on others or on your job or on the government or on organizations outside of you? How do you feel safe? Let's take this apart and talk about it.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Make sure you subscribe on YouTube so that you get your Love Letter first every week, and I'll see you next time. Muah. Bye. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong style="line-height: 1.5;">In Love and Light,</strong></p>

<h2><span style="color: #800080;"><em>Overwhelmed by other people's energy lately?</em></span></h2>
<h2><em>Feeling overworked because you can't say "no" when other people ask you to do them a favor?</em></h2>
<h2><em>Scared that you're headed for burnout?</em></h2>
<p><em>You can release yourself from this vicious cycle.</em></p>
<p><em>It's time to stop enabling other people's victim behavior, and let them start saving themselves for a change.</em></p>
<p><span style="color: #008080;"><strong>Watch the above 8-minute video to let go of managing other people's drama!</strong></span></p>
<p><span id="more-1900"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;"><em><span style="color: #800080;"><b>"I don't have to play this game anymore<em>.</em>"</b></span></em></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">I'm hearing the Oracle cards calling in the energy right now. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>This week, in particular, Source is telling you to be on the lookout for where are you allowing excessive energy for people to stomp all over you.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Or allowing them to bulldoze over your sense of personal calm with their emotions. Or their work - you're taking it and putting on your back from theirs. Transferring it to you. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>They have a wonderfully low tolerance for how much work, or how much emotion, or how much silence in themselves they're willing to tolerate.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><em><span class="s1">"Oh, I don't have to carry the work, you'll take it. Great. I don't have to sort through my emotions and my problems, you will. Great. I don't have to hold all of my thoughts within me and analyze them myself. Great you will." </span></em></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Dump, dump, dump. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">The only reason why you're catching the dump is because you're automatically saying, <em>"Okay."</em></span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> There's an agreement there. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">This is not to shame or guilt you, by the way. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1">Source is saying you have all the power in this situation. </span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Drama and dramatic situations often can convince you, with all the shiny lights, bells and whistles of dramatic emotions, painful words, or frustrating circumstance, all those shiny shiny lights can distract you and make you think that, <em>"I'm a victim. I am subject to what's happening to me. There's no way out."</em> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">That is not true. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">You always have all power. This is a free will universe. You can choose to change your situation at any time, any time.</span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="line-height: 1.5;">When you realize you're face deep in someone else's junk - face deep in their drama, their emotion, their story, their&nbsp;work - when you're at the office and you're doing way more than what your pay grade says that you're doing, just say this to yourself:&nbsp;</span><span style="line-height: 1.5;"><em>"I don't have to play this game anymore,"</em> and step out of the drama sandbox they're playing in. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span style="line-height: 1.5;">All right, get up. Stand&nbsp;up. Stand up and&nbsp;just say: "<em>I'm not playing this game anymore."&nbsp;</em>Step out. </span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="line-height: 1.5;">The chills. You can do it. It really is that easy. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="line-height: 1.5;">It really is that easy. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span style="line-height: 1.5;">When you decide, the entire Universe changes. </span><span style="line-height: 1.5;">Why? Because the whole Universe herself was created by a decision.</span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2049" src="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK.png" alt="TWEETOFTHEWEEK" width="462" height="86" srcset="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK.png 462w, https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK-300x56.png 300w, https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK-460x86.png 460w" sizes="(max-width: 462px) 100vw, 462px" /></p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Know this:&nbsp;<a href="http://ctt.ec/85af1" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">You can #change your life; you just need to decide. Claim it: "My life is #drama free!"</a></strong></h2>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">This week's oracle card is "Divine Timing." Now is the perfect moment for you to act on your inspirations. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1">You can change your mind and change your entire situation, your entire life now. </span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">This video is coming to you in perfect timing they're also saying. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">The doors are open while you walk through them with us, the Angels, by your side. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">Don't delay or procrastinate, as all the ingredients are ripe for your success. </span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">They're saying right now, you have everything you need to shift your state right now. Right now. Literally,&nbsp;right now. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1">Everything and everyone is on your side supporting your positive outcome.</span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> The energy I'm hearing is&nbsp;saying sometimes we convince ourselves that everyone is against us, that the world doesn't want us to succeed, that others around you are not on your level and it makes it very adversarial. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Granted, not everyone is on your vibration and you can't please everybody, but that doesn't mean you have to get tied up in that. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">Let it go. If they're not on your level, let them go. You don't even have to think twice. </span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> It's the same as if you ever worked in a multi-floor building. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">If you're working on the 12th floor how often do you think about people on the 11th floor on a day-to-day basis? </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Those of you out in New York City or out of Houston Texas, big tall buildings, how often do you think, "<em>Well, I wonder what people on the 3rd and 4th floor are doing right now? Gosh, they're beneath me. Bwah haha har!"</em> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">No, you're just on another floor. That floor has nothing to do with you. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Let them be there. They're just living their lives one day at a time and the best the can, the same as you are. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1">Be kind to yourself. You don't even have to get involved with that drama.</span></strong></p>
<p class="p1">Sending you so much love, confidence and transformative energy.</p>
<p><strong style="line-height: 1.5;">In Love and Light,</strong></p>

<h2><span style="color: #800080;"><em>Tired of dramatic people draining and hijacking your days?</em></span></h2>
<h2><em>Have you had it up to here with people dumping their problems on you?</em></h2>
<h2><em>Don't you just wish things could be easy, rather than putting out fires all the time?</em></h2>
<p>This Love Letter is for all my awesome Mr./Ms. Fix-It's out there who are ready to put down their sword and cape.</p>
<p>It's about time we let other people clean up their messes and deal with their own drama on their own time!</p>
<p><span style="color: #008080;"><strong>Watch the above 8-minute video to start kicking drama out of your life for good!</strong></span></p>
<p><span id="more-1886"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;"><em><span style="color: #800080;"><b>"<em>I'm tired of all the drama.</em>"</b></span></em></p>
<p class="p1">This week the phrase that Source&nbsp;is sending for us to talk about is, "I'm tired of all the drama."</p>
<p class="p1">Is that you?</p>
<p class="p1">Are you just sick and tired of things just being over the top?</p>
<p class="p1"><strong>Tired of being overwhelmed, tired of dramatic people, tired of everybody dumping their problems on you, and then you having to have to fix everything?</strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">They think you're Mr. or Mrs. Fix-it, and it's exhausting. Is that you? </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">Everything has to be explosive. </span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Our relationships, our whirlwind romances, our arguments are explosive. Our exercise routines are maxed out, over the top, extreme. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">And then we wonder why we're so tired, or so distracted lately. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1"><span style="color: #333333;">Source is saying that distraction is another form of exhaustion.</span> </span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">It's imbalanced. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">We're coping with a sense of fatigue and a need for rest and re-centering by avoiding it with distractions on cellphones, distracted, wandering conversations. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Distraction is a lack of centeredness.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> When you are centered, being centered is different than being grounded, by the way. When you are centered you are in alignment. </span><span class="s1">You are focused. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Being focused and in alignment is entirely different than being grounded. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">For this topic in particular, Source is saying the reason why you're experiencing so much drama, or people are bringing you so much drama, is that this drama is a spiritual symptom manifestation of your lack of centeredness. </span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">We're out of alignment, so in order to feel our center and in order for us to be motivated to respond, things have to shout at us at a certain level. Hence, the shouty drama energy.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> For example, the Energy is bringing up a vision right now of some of the members of the tribe who may be watching, but have issues with their throat chakra.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1">When we have issues with our throat chakra, we cannot speak up for ourselves. </span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Put that person into a corner, however, or really egg them on and increase the stress level around them, box them in, and then they will lash out. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">They will lash out&nbsp;and have no problem bringing out the stinger to defend their energy, but only when severely threatened.&nbsp;</span><span class="s1">They'll blast people and&nbsp;things out of the way, because there's been so much expression held within and recoiled. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">When we're holding within, recoiling&nbsp;and&nbsp;winding up, we're out of alignment because it's causing us to be reactionary, the Energy is saying.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #333333;"> But remember to be kind to yourself.</span></p>
<h2><strong>Know this: <a href="http://ctt.ec/HWfzF" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">If you're knee-deep in&nbsp;#drama&nbsp;right now, put down your pride &amp; decide to not solve other people's problems. Say it: "I'm done!"</a></strong></h2>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1">If the drama is all around you, you're immersed in it.</span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">And when you're knee-deep in drama, the only reason why that is happening is because Source notices that you are a little hard of hearing, so She's turning up the dial on the water that you're soaking in. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Imagine this. You're in a pot of water, and things are getting hotter, because you're on a stove. Now, at a certain temperature, you're cool, you're feeling all right. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">But after a while, as She turns up the heat, you begin to notice it's getting warmer&nbsp;and&nbsp;warmer. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">Source is waiting for you to jump&nbsp;out of the pot because you're not supposed to be boiled there. You're still alive and still conscious. She's&nbsp;not trying to boil you, but when are you going to decide to get out of the pot? </span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">So, she continues turning up, turning up, turning up the heat and you say, <em>"Okay, it's getting really hot in here. I'm starting to feel a little bit overwhelmed, but I can take it. I can take it." </em></span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1">Pride, ego, conditioning says, <em>"I can take it. I can take it. I can stay and fix the water, and stop it from boiling all around me, and boiling me."</em></span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">The boiling water and the temperature represent the amount of drama and agitation you're experiencing in life. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Source will turn that up, until you're fed up and screaming&nbsp;<em>"All right! I'm done!"</em> and out of the pot you jump. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">So what's your tipping point? What's your boiling point? </span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">We only experience the level of drama in life that we agree to. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1">In other words, you allow drama. </span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">We are allowing this excessive, annoying, frustrating, overwhelming energy and interactions into our life. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #333333;"><span class="s1">We allow them mainly when we are out of alignment with what matters most.&nbsp;</span></span><span class="s1">If we are out of alignment with what matters most to us, we cannot access the full clarity, the full focus of our feelings. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1">We're pinched. Think of a pinched nerve. </span><span class="s1">When the nerve is pinched in your body, the feeling there is numb. It is out of alignment, not blocked because it's just really squished there.</span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1"> You're not blocked, you're just pinched.</span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> It's not like your energy turned off, per se. </span><span class="s1" style="color: #333333;">There is still some sort of feeling there, but it pales in comparison to say the completely unpinched side. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Let someone adjust you -- or even better, you can adjust yourself -- so&nbsp;the energy, the warmth, the sensation, the feeling returns to that entire area of your body, and that entire area of your life.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><em>Stay tuned for part 2 of this topic, coming next week...</em></p>
<p><strong style="line-height: 1.5;">In Love and Light,</strong></p>

<h2><span style="color: #800080;"><em>Feeling depressed because of a recent breakup or loss of your job?</em></span></h2>
<h2><em>Do negative news reports, commercials or traffic jams always have a way of ruining your day?</em></h2>
<h2><em>Wish you could just be plain happy already, without all the setbacks knocking you off your unicorn?</em></h2>
<p><em>I feel you! It seems like every time you relax or start to make it a beautiful day, something has to come along and “test” you, right?</em></p>
<p><em>But what if you’re tired of being tested by Spirit?</em></p>
<p><span style="color: #008080;"><strong>Watch the above 10-minute video to begin exploring how you can create and protect your joy, rather than feeling like everyone’s stealing it all the time!<br />
</strong></span></p>
<p><span id="more-1794"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;"><em><span style="color: #800080;"><b>"Things were going so well! Why does this always happen to me?"</b></span></em></p>
<p>Hi! Sensei Victoria with you here from victoriawhitfield.com for your weekly love letter. It's my last day in Negril, Jamaica at <a href="http://www.jackiesonthereef.com/">Jackie's on the Reef</a> and I wanted to share with you one last vision of the ocean for your Weekly Love Letter.</p>
<p><strong>This week Source is really adamant about you understanding that your number one focus should be protecting your joy.</strong></p>
<p>Just like a bird singing, your joy is your song on this planet. It is your vibration that is unique to you.</p>
<p>Joy is the most powerful vibration other than gratitude that we're capable of emanating as living beings, so you really want to protect the integrity of your joy. That's what Spirit wants you to know right now.</p>
<p><strong>What does it look like when we're not protecting our joy? Basically, it looks and feels like we are driven by whatever happens to us. </strong></p>
<p>If someone has some snide remark to say, immediately you latch onto that and identify with what that person said. Or if there's traffic, all of a sudden the traffic has ruined your day, as if something outside of you can determine the quality and energy of the day that you're having.</p>
<p><strong>Other ways that our joy can be affected or not protected is that we're also dependent on others for our own sense of happiness or self-awareness.</strong></p>
<p>For example, let's say you're in a relationship and your partner decides that it's time for them to leave or time for you to leave, and as you’re parting ways, your identity becomes shaken because you've given them so much power over your life.</p>
<p>Similarly, this can happen in the event of loss of a job. If your position at a certain company dissolves or you're let go, fired, et cetera, or you decide to leave, suddenly your identity shifts and then the depression comes, the anxiety comes, stress comes.</p>
<p>Depression, anxiety, and stress are all forms of dis-ease, by the way, not just disease but dis-ease, or the disturbing of one's sense of ease, peace and calm in any and all areas of life and self.</p>
<h2><span style="color: #333333;"><strong>Know this: <span style="color: #008080;">Disease becomes present when we are not protecting our joy. #stress #health</span></strong></span></h2>
<p>Now, in the energy I just heard from someone, <em>"I don't even know what makes me joyful, though, Victoria!"</em> That issue, this week in particular, you want to investigate.</p>
<p>Some examples of things that make me joyful is being outside in nature, and bubbles bring me joy. As most of you know, I have bubbles tattooed on the side of my body because they represent innocent joy.&nbsp;Although it may be fleeting, it's beautiful, full of color, and immediate, so that's what bubbles are to me as my symbol of joy.</p>
<p><strong>Having a symbol anchors an idea or energy in you emotionally, physically and spiritually. It's powerful energywork you can do on yourself and on your life.</strong></p>
<p>Also, speaking to people and learning more about other people's viewpoint bring me joy because I love diversity. I'm a very curious person, so finding out more and learning new things increases my joy. These are all examples for me personally of what brings me joy. Hanging out with family and friends, laughter, being silly, again, are more things that bring me joy.</p>
<p><strong>Here’s the thing though: I actually sat down and took the time to recognize and write out a list of all the things that brings me joy as just Victoria.</strong></p>
<p>It all started when I discovered I like white roses, for example, and how their energy increases my joy.</p>
<h2><strong>What brings you joy?</strong></h2>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><em>Is there a certain kind of music that you just can't help dancing to?</em></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><em>Is there a certain place that you love to visit that brings you joy?</em></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><em>Or someone that whenever you talk to them or whenever you see them, you just can't help yourself, you're just so happy?</em></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><em> Maybe your children or your animal children bring you so much joy?</em></p>
<p><strong>Make a list. Source is very clear in the energy right now. Make a list of all the things that bring you joy.</strong></p>
<p><span style="color: #800080;"><strong>And by the way, joy is also defined by a sense of play.</strong></span></p>
<p>Oh! I just felt a kickback in the energy from someone in the energy saying, <em>"My life is not playful. This is very serious! I have a very serious life right now. I have a lot to do. I don't know what you're talking about play. I haven't played since I was a kid. Adults don't play."</em></p>
<p>That's a load of crap. With all due love and respect...CRAP! 🙂</p>
<p>You're playfulness gives you energy, and playfulness protects, cultivates and increases your joy. And joy is the energy of vitality; it is the natural expression of a fulfilled life.</p>
<p>Now, I just heard in the energy,<em> “So why do we care about protecting our joy other than the fact that it is the highest vibration you can possibly emanate as a living being?”</em></p>
<p><strong>It also has biochemical effects on your body.</strong> When you are feeling positive, when you are feeling creative, glowing, playful, in a feeling of humor or positive expectation, all of that that just comes naturally as by-products of being in joy.</p>
<p>Your body regenerates itself, not only in terms of physical healing, but it also creates emotional energy, too, where a day was boring and long and slow-moving, it can speed up and sparkle!</p>
<p><span style="color: #800080;"><em><strong>How can you find a way to create joy for yourself?</strong></em></span> Well, the first resource I'm hearing in the energy is studying the teachings of <a href="http://www.abraham-hicks.com/lawofattractionsource/index.php" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Abraham Hicks</a>.</p>
<p>Have you've ever checked them out on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=abraham+hicks" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">YouTube</a>? Our energy vibrates strong with Abraham, and their advice is that your first focus is “<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-4TqHp2BnE" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">getting into the vortex</a>,” which is another way of saying being and feeling joyful.</p>
<p>If there's any time that in the middle of your day you're feeling slow or low vibration or exhausted, and you do something that creates joy in you... whoa, nelly!</p>
<p>That shift is better than coffee, even better than wheat grass, to all my hard-core health nuts out there. LOL! It's an injection of vitality, a main-line of energy that comes from nowhere but your own spirit.</p>
<p><strong>Other than the energetic and the biochemical reactions that we have to joy, there are the powerful health effects.</strong></p>
<p>When we are sick in the hospital, the most import thing is to generate joy by any means necessary because that'll get you out of the hospital and out of the sick bed way faster.</p>
<p>The vibration of joy accelerates your recovery process.</p>
<p><strong>Also, one of the spirits is pointing to the emotional effect.</strong> It brings you back to center. Joy is a feeling space of being in alignment with your most creative energy within you.</p>
<p>When you are in alignment with your most creative energy, the opportunities, the solutions, are endless. What does endlessness look like?</p>
<p>Think of the ocean – in fact, you can look at her in this week’s video. There is no end, as the ocean goes all the way out to meet the sky and then it continues farther than your eye can see.</p>
<p><span style="line-height: 1.5;"><strong>When you're in a joy-feeling state, the problems that seem impossible to have solutions naturally just click in.</strong>&nbsp;</span></p>
<p><span style="line-height: 1.5; color: #800080;"><strong>Joy accesses and activates more of your brain, and that's why this happens.</strong> </span></p>
<p><span style="line-height: 1.5;">Synchronicities and understandings or connections that couldn't have been made otherwise click in because you're activated. </span></p>
<p><span style="line-height: 1.5;">That's the magic of being in joy...</span></p>
<p><em>Tune in next week, for the second half of our discussion of protecting your joy, where we go through a few specific techniques for protecting your energy!</em></p>
<p><em><span style="line-height: 1.5;">&nbsp;</span></em></p>
<p><strong>In Love and Light,</strong></p>
<p><strong>Victoria.</strong></p>

<h2><span style="color: #800080;"><em>Ready to change your life for the better, but keep running into roadblocks?</em></span></h2>
<h2><em>Feel like you are you're own worst enemy?</em></h2>
<h2><em>Wondering why you keep avoiding and dancing around taking that one big step in life that would be really good for you?</em></h2>
<p>Your Spirit is bringing you opportunities to experience More Love in your life, but in order to receive it you need to understand exactly why you self-sabotage.</p>
<p>This time is raising your Abundance Vibration.</p>
<p><span style="color: #008080;"><strong>Watch the above video to learn how to heal self-sabotaging behaviors so you can actually use them to shift to an attractive, abundant mindset!</strong></span></p>
<p><span id="more-1140"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;"><em>More Love and More Money - Video Series on Increasing Authentic Abundance</em></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800080;">Self-sabotage is the #1 thing that stands between you and what you want.<br />
</span></strong></p>
<p>It's this "I am my own worst enemy" syndrome in us that kicks up when we are about to make clear and significant progress.</p>
<p><strong>In fact, it's usually when we know <em>exactly what the next step is</em> that we tend to give into self-sabotaging behaviors the most - such as going on social media, watching TV or pleasure-seeking in general to procrastinate taking that next step.<br />
</strong></p>
<p>But why?</p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1142" src="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/ahh-procrastination.jpg" alt="ahh-procrastination" width="640" height="448" srcset="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/ahh-procrastination.jpg 640w, https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/ahh-procrastination-300x210.jpg 300w, https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/ahh-procrastination-598x419.jpg 598w" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px" /></p>
<p><strong>Change is always difficult because we are shifting from one identity and paradigm to a whole new one, and your Ego doesn't like that!<br />
</strong></p>
<p>This is not because your Ego is bad or out to ruin your life. In fact, too many wellness and new-age thinkers demonize the Ego as the sum of all evil - and that is just not true!</p>
<p>You Ego is your first response system that serves to protect you and your identity from danger or being compromised. It came in especially handy when you are living out in the wild and needed to have that instinctual response to avoiding dangers like predatory animals and dangerous weather.</p>
<p>But now that we're no longer in need of this instinctual alert system as much, the Ego has become over-reactive, and tends to kick on when we are about to do (or are "in danger" of doing) something that involves a higher output of personal energy than we have grown accustomed to generating.</p>
<p><span style="color: #800080;"><strong>Therefore, self-sabotaging behaviors are caused by an instinctual, over-reactive Ego - and this means that they present us with the Dark Gift of an opportunity to experience More Love in our lives. And of course, your Ego right now is saying:</strong></span></p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1143" src="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/overreacting.jpg" alt="overreacting" width="400" height="284" srcset="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/overreacting.jpg 400w, https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/overreacting-300x213.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px" /></p>
<p>Healing self-sabotaging behaviors starts with honoring your Ego; when you start to self-sabotage or procrastinate, just acknowledge that the purpose of your Ego is to protect you and that that's why you have the compulsion to avoid taking action.</p>
<h3>Know this: <span style="color: #008080;">Self-sabotage is an opportunity for Love. See it as a Dark Gift from your Ego bringing up fears that are false so they can heal. #MLMM</span></h3>
<p>When you feel like you're afraid or reluctant to start that project or take that leap of faith, pause and take stock of what you're actually afraid of - and then ask yourself "is that true?"</p>
<p><span style="color: #800080;"><strong>Nine times out of ten, the things we fear the most are not even real!<br />
</strong></span></p>
<p>As creative and sensitive people, we tend to catastrophize situations, winding ourselves into a panic-filled analysis of imagined worst-case scenarios, rather than just walking right into the situation and ALLOWING it to unfold naturally itself.</p>
<p>And that's actually the spiritual lesson behind self-sabotage - an unwillingness to Allow. This is big, because being able to Allow is crucial to increasing your abundance vibration.</p>
<p><em><strong>Watch this week's video for the Oracle Card of the Week, which explains exactly what part of your spiritual anatomy is tied to healing self-sabotaging behaviors!</strong></em></p>
<p><strong>In Love and Light,</strong></p>
<p><strong>Victoria.</strong></p>

<a href="http://www.facebook.com/SenseiVictoriaWhitfield">Facebook.com/SenseiVictoriaWhitfield</a></strong></p>
<p><strong><em>Just for Today...</em></strong></p>
<p><strong>Be honest. Write down if and how you feed yourself false senses of security and false feelings of love with temporary pleasures like procrastination.<br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong>And then realize that you are taking the easy way out and feigning loving yourself with "quick fixes" instead of really exploring and embracing your true feelings.<br />

<p><strong><em>Notice how you feel at that moment - you're already healing!</em></strong></p>

<p><strong>Whether it's a birthday, anniversary, Thanksgiving, Christmas, the 4th of July, an office party, or Mother's or Father's Day - most of our celebrations these days are food-focused.</strong></p>
<p>In a previous article I explained how we associate food with love and that is why we tend to stuff ourselves, especially at Thanksgiving.</p>
<p><strong>However Spirit spoke to me this morning and said that it's not just love, but we also associate food with appreciation and celebration.</strong> Any holiday or celebration therefore is a severe trigger for those of us who struggle with Emotional Eating and Emotional Stuffing Behaviors. So what on earth do we do about this?</p>
<p><span id="more-948"></span></p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-964" src="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/turkey-costume-189x300.png" alt="turkey costume" width="189" height="300" srcset="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/turkey-costume-189x300.png 189w, https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/turkey-costume.png 500w" sizes="(max-width: 189px) 100vw, 189px" />I had a few downloads today about how to heal our relationship with food during Celebrations and Holiday Gatherings. Some of them may surprise you, others may seem pedestrian.</p>
<p>Either way, I encourage you to TRY THEM OUT (at least 3) this Thursday for Thanksgiving, and let me know how it goes for you.</p>
<p><strong>It's all about making sure you're not the stuffed turkey at Thanksgiving this year!</strong></p>
<p>I myself will be attempting to engage in all 7, and I'll let you know what happened for me. Usually I stuff myself sick during the holidays to show I am present and participating, but this time, <strong>I personally want to be present to myself and my health WHILE participating with experiencing Love with family and friends</strong>.</p>
<p>So here they are:</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Reframe The Meaning of Cravings</strong>. We stuff ourselves during holidays and celebrations because we conflate eating food or drinking with Love. Guess what? There's more ways to give, receive and experience love than stuffing yourself. When you next feel the urge to eat more, reframe that urge as a need to experience more Love in that moment - which means, challenge yourself to hug someone, express appreciation, donate something, be affectionate, give a gift, do a random act of kindness or service, tell someone how much they mean to you, pat the cat or the dog, go outside and just appreciate nature for 10 minutes with someone or call someone up to say you were thinking of them.</li>
<li><strong>Tupperware</strong>. We overeat during holiday celebrations because our eyes are bigger than our stomach, and portions go crazy. Bring a no more than 3 cup / 24 oz / 710 ml tupperware to the party and make it your goal to eat only what will fit in that tupperware and it can close. That way you know exactly how much will be going inside you.</li>
<li><strong>Hijack Your Smell &amp; Salivation Response</strong>. We often overeat during the holidays because things smell so good. Bring non-food and non-appetizing things to smell to combat cravings and overeating, such the following oil or candles to sniff: lavender, tea tree, eucalyptus, roses, lilies, jasmine, gardenia, or even vick's vapor rub!</li>
<li><strong>Managing Seconds, Thirds, and so on</strong>. We overeat because it's socially acceptable to keep going back for more food. So to make sure you can have more of something that tasted good but just at a later time, bring extra tupperware containers to put your seconds and thirds to take home later and put them in the FREEZER during your stay, AND into your own freezer when you get home.</li>
<li><strong>Conscious Display</strong>. We overeat because we see the buffet open and easy to access. So, cover up foods with opaque (not see through) covers when not in use. Out of sight, out of mind!</li>
<li><strong>Taste &amp; Pleasure Binge</strong>. We overeat because everything just tasted so good and we just want to repeat the sensual pleasure of it. To counteract this, do an ACV Bomb! Drop a shot of Bragg's Apple Cider Vinegar into a tall glass of water and drink it down. It's great for digestion and can shut down cravings! Or, if it's really bad, just take an ACV shot straight. You may scream, but hey, desperate times call for desperate measures! 🙂</li>
<li><strong>Plan Out the Event Activities</strong>. We often overeat because the only thing to do is eat at a party. How BORING! So instead, have a set time where you and your family / guests move away from the dinner table to engage in non-food, non-drink, and non-eating activities that raise your love vibration higher and higher. And when you raise your vibration, you attract more positive things into your life!</li>
</ol>
