Are you putting off living life unapologetically?

Do you believe others can pursue their passions and dreams now, but not you?

Feel like you'll have permission to be yourself "later" - like when you get the perfect job, spouse, baby, retirement, body, etc.?

Most sensitive entrepreneurs put off living life fully and openly for fear of criticism, shaming and judgement.

And these low-vibrational feelings distract us empathically from the reasons why we must show up in life and business unapologetically, now.

Watch this week’s 11-minute Love Letter, the first installment in our 5-week series, to remember why you must live your life unapologetically.

"Welcome to a brand new you!"

This is a brand new five-week deep dive series that we're going to be doing on the topic of living an unapologetic life. Every year, I pick a word that is the theme for the year for me personally. Last year, my theme was Supported; how I want to feel. This year in particular, Unapologetic Ease is actually the full intention and sensation that I'm going for this year in particular. My guide said, “Let's start off the year bringing in the entire tribe around what it looks like and what's at stake behind living life unapologetically.”

As you know, by now, when we do these multi-week deep dive series, it's so that you and I can have time to really get into the nuts and bolts of these topics. Also, we always begin with why. We start with why because we're conjuring energy, we're conjuring attention and focus around this new learning topic. If you're looking to start new projects and generate energy, you start with why. There are other reasons for you to start with why, such as: getting clear on what you're passionate about, clarifying focus and reeling in, honing in energy not just of your own but also of your team around you. So starting with why rocks!

This week, let's look at why you should live life unapologetically. Here's the thing: When we live life apologetically, we go throughout our days and go throughout our businesses, our meetings, our relationships, even the thoughts that we think in our heads going round and around thinking, “I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry,” or, “This is a really sorry circumstance,” or the wah-wah kind of energy is what follows us around when we live life apologetically. Even when we're trying to get to our seat in the movie theater, we say repeatedly:“I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.” Is this you? Is that just your automatic thing to say, "I'm sorry", when someone calls on you or when you have a question or when you call someone up or think … Is that the way that you meet the world, as "I'm sorry?"

If the way that you are meeting the world is leading with I'm sorry, then you are automatically blocking all the love, all the abundance, the support and healing that Source is pouring on you. Write this down: Saying I'm sorry means don't support me, I'm bad. Saying I'm sorry means don't support me because I'm bad.

Know this: Constantly saying I'm sorry blocks #abundance; the universe hears it as "don't support me because I'm wrong." @SenseiWhitfield

You should not be full of shame in the way that you meet the world. The reason why we want to live life unapologetically is so that you have all the energy that you need to meet life confidently and full of joy, full of radiance. We need your light.

Healers, you've got to meet the world unapologetically because you have a powerful, powerful purpose, and we need you now more than ever. Entrepreneurs, you're here to solve problems. You're a problem solver. You've seen an issue and you're like, “Oh, I have a solution.” We need you to come to life unapologetically because there's plenty of problems out there that if it wasn't for you, we wouldn't have the solution for.

It's time for you to come out of your shell and step into life unapologetically. Why? Because we need YOU.

Now, also, be kind to yourself if you think that you should stave off living life unapologetically until retirement or on, “When I get married, I'll be unapologetic about myself. That's when I can let myself go.” By the way, it’s not how that works, or, “Maybe when I get that big client, I can finally book a massage because I don't deserve self-care until I make a certain amount of money.” No. Oh my goodness. Be kind to yourself if you're pushing off living life unapologetically. "I'm not going to travel the world until I’ve retired at 67 or 72 or whenever the years are when I'm too tired to really be going around the world, yeah, that's when I'll live life unapologetically." Or "I’ll wait until I'm older to be taken seriously because I'm a female or I'm a young man or whatever, and that means because I'm young or because I'm female, that means you can't really take me seriously."

Stop apologizing. Why are you living life unapologetically? You have a purpose now. You can live life like you mean it. You can live life like you own it now, and we need you now. We needed you, as they say in New York. We needed you yesterday. Let's make a commitment this week in particular to invoke this concept of living life unapologetically. For the next five weeks, we're going to dive deep into it. Are you ready?

Accompanying us on our journey into living life unapologetically is the oracle cards deck Daily Guidance From Your Angels by Doreen Virtue, one of the many oracle cards decks. You can send in your donation deck to the dojo. Go ahead to naturalintuition.com and look for the Contact page, my mailing address is there. Thank you to all my loves who sent in donation decks. It's amazing. You should see how many people have been benefiting from your generosity. I’ll try to post more pictures. I'm not going to apologize though. Yes, yes. Okay. Angels, what do we need to know this week in particular about why we need to live life unapologetically? Oh, that felt strong.

Perfect Timing.

Perfect Timing: Now is the perfect moment for you to act on your inspirations. The doors are open while you walk through them with us by your side. Don't delay or procrastinate as all of the ingredients are ripe for your success. Everything and everyone is on your side supporting your positive outcome.

Where we're going to leave off this week is that why should you live an unapologetic life is because Now is the time. There are opportunities, the angels are saying, that, if you have the confidence and the presence and the energy to step into, your whole life would change, and so will the lives of all those around you, in your community, in your family, on your team. We need you now. Can you see that first word? Now is the perfect moment. Now more than ever.

Go ahead, type in the comments below how is this perfectly on time, this topic of living life unapologetically. We are walking into this as a new year - regardless of when you're watching or reading this, by the way. At the time that this airs, it will be a new year in 2018, but we are walking into this new year as if Now is when we're worthy, Now is when we can live life unapologetically.

What would that mean to you? Go ahead and type in the comments below. I want to hear it. I want to read it. Share, send me videos back, send me an e-mail back at info@victoriawhitfield.com. That comes straight to me. Make sure you subscribe on YouTube so that you get these love letters first every week and I will see you next time for part two of five. See you soon. Bye.

The post Love Letters | Living an Unapologetic Life – Part 1 of 5 appeared first on Sensei Victoria Whitfield.

This is week five of five in our deep dive into shifting our perspective, and we’ve been discussing the exact mechanics of how to shift our perspective so that we can step into our divinity fully in life and business.

For week five, my guides have asked me to speak to you on a pivot topic as we prepare for our next series of love letter videos. But before I get to the topic, if this is the first of the series that you are seeing, make sure you pause, go back on my blog at victoriawhitfield.com and start from week one so that you are grounded in this process.

This week, my guides have shown me that we need to talk about the empath trap. Don't fall for the empath trap. And I see this is shockingly prevalent, the more I've been going live on Facebook, actually. If you haven't seen my Facebook page, where I'm dropping what I call #lovebombs for you, then youre missing out on some real activating inspiration. Go ahead to Facebook.com\senseivictoriawhitfield to catch some of those. They really, really add a pep to your step and wake you up if you've been kind of asleep at the wheel in life and business.

What I found is that the more that I've been going live, the more I find people from all over the world falling into the empath trap. And here's what it is: where you expect somebody else to make you feel better. Now, that's it in a nutshell, but I'd like to just clarify a little bit more of that. First of all, if you don't know what an empath is, let's start there because that's jargon, right?

An empath is someone who is an emotional sponge. It's different than empathy. With empathy, you choose to see a situation through somebody else's eyes. You use your mind, your mental acrobatics abilities to construct the idea of what it would be like to walk in somebody else's shoes. You choose to do that, and that's compassionate, that's awesome, and develops rapport.

But someone who's an empath has the ability to really feel what others are going through, emotionally and physically, and it happens against their will. So that means, if someone's coming in in a grumpy mood, all the sudden, the person in the room who's an empath will start feeling grumpy, and they were fine before. Or if somebody has a headache, the person who's an empath will start feeling like their head hurts, or another part of their body is suddenly hurting too, not because they're mentally unstable or something like that, but because the way that their body is wired is that they're a sponge. They soak in the physical and emotional feelings of others in their environments.

We see this in the animal kingdom as well, not just amongst people. Think of dogs and cats. If you have a dog or a cat, it's not that they can speak English, necessarily, but have you ever noticed that they feel sad when you feel sad? Or they can sense in their bodies if something's not quite right with you? It's amazing because animals are highly empathic. It's our birthright as beings here on earth, being empathic. It's another sense that we have, to be able to sense the emotional and physical feelings of others around us, because it's another form of communication.

Now, in more recent years, in the New Age, Metaphysical, spiritual-but-not-religious sort of soul-seeking communities online or the self-help or Angel Healing, energy healing and etc. groups online, there's this whole philosophy and subculture around being an empath that says, "Oh, you're special and you need special help. And we got to band together and got to protect and got to read all these books" and similar stuff like that. What I found is, when I'm going live on Facebook, I'll attract more empaths as viewers because I am one, and I understand that. But those who have fallen into the empath trap think that other people are going to solve their problem for them, or ease their symptoms, or give them the answers that they're seeking.

And when we're committed to shifting our perspective so that we can finally step into, meaning claim, the power of our divinity in life and business, we're not waiting for somebody else to come to the rescue. In the words of the fabulous Lisa Nichols, the mantra is, “I am my rescue." It's so important, as an empath, to honor the fact that you have power.

So if someone's sharing, like myself, intuitive readings or channelings or insights or talking about psychic development and so on and so forth, and you feel like, "Okay, this person has answers. Hey, you tell me blah blah blah about my parent who's passed on" or "Hey, you look at my aura and see if there's any blockages in it," then be kind to yourself: that's actually disempowering for you. That doesn't enable you to step into your divinity. Instead, that puts the onus on the other person and gives your power away.

I want you to know that you have power and that this is the week that you are going to get out of that empath trap. Because when it comes down to it, an imbalanced or dysfunctional empath feels good when others feel good or feels bad when others feel bad. That always puts you at a disadvantage. Please take your power back!

We're going to go more into this in the next series, but for now, we’re here at beautiful Washington Rock in the dead of winter to really open up and get that nature energy to help us process and reclaim our expansive power. I'm hearing the oracle cards calling in the energy. It's the Isis Oracle by Alana Fairchild. The last one of the series is ... Ooh, this couldn't have been better. The Eye of Horus. Awakening divine perception.

Here's where we're going to leave off for the week: Claim your ability to take control of your life. Claim your ability to create your life by design, to tune into Source, to plug in to Spirit. You can do this. Awaken your divine perception. You have it by birthright. You don't have to get it from somebody else secondhand. It's yours. You can cut out the middleman.

If this message was for you, go ahead, send me an email back at team@victoriawhitfield.com or comment below. Let me know what's coming up for you. Make sure you subscribe on YouTube so that you get these love letters first every week, and I'll see you next time for the next series.

May you feel loved and safe at work, and please: Enjoy the journey. Bye for now.

Just for today...

Decide to take back your power by claiming your birthright as an empowered, empathic and intuitive being, and to stop giving your power away.

Declare "I am my rescue. I claim my birthright to create my own life and to connect to Spirit myself!"

Notice how you feel in that moment - you're already healing!

Hello there. I am Sensei Victoria Whitfield, your business reiki master. And it's my joy to get to support empathic entrepreneurs and business owners like you in getting and staying grounded and clear in mind, body and business.

Welcome back to another installment of your weekly love letter from the dojo at naturalintuition.com and victoriawhitfield.com, my blog. These are your sources for channeled holistic stress management techniques and guidance for developing your natural intuition. Whether you're looking to improve the quality of your personal and professional life, let this love letter be your reminder that you are not alone and that together we can make that happen.

Let's schedule a chat, and see how I can help you...

The post Love Letters | The Empath Trap – Part 5 of 5 appeared first on Sensei Victoria Whitfield.

Are you naturally sensitive or intuitive, picking up on energies that most people miss completely?

And does your natural sensitivity to energy sometimes get the best of you, causing you to feel drained and confused?

Wish you could embrace your sensitivity as the powerful gift that it is, rather than it constantly backfiring because you don't know what you don't know about your gifts?

Then this 8-week online course is for you!

Regular $197 ON SALE NOW at 50% OFF for JUST $97!

Understanding Energy is an online, self-paced 8-week companion program to Sensei Victoria Whitfield's book Natural Intuition Now: Book One - Uplevel Your Life by Awakening Your Innate Spiritual Senses. This course is meant for those who want more structured practice and guidance on how to awaken and embrace their spiritual body.

Chances are, you're reading this right now because you know you're naturally sensitive and energetic -- some call it being "spiritual but not religious" or "open-minded" or "new age-y" -- and that's all well and good, and even kind of cool sometimes. However, you're quite aware of the downside to being sensitive to energy: the overwhelm, feeling like an outsider or "weird", and the seemingly endless "spiritual healing" and self-exploration you have to do.

It can get pretty exhausting and confusing. Your mind may race with questions like: "Which meditation should I do? What exactly is an aura? Am I making this stuff up or am I actually experiencing this? How do I protect myself from all the negative energy out there? Should I just avoid people altogether? Should I see a 'healer' or not? Why is this happening to me?" and so on.

Struggling to keep up with the new-age trends you've gone to the yoga classes, bought the oils, drank the green juice, said the mantras, seen the spiritual healers and psychic seers, got the certifications, listened to the youtube meditations, read the self-help books, and gone to the conferences.

And yet, somehow, you still end up feeling confused and blocked. 

You may feel like you've been going in circles, repeating the same lessons over and over.

Or worse yet, maybe you've come to believe that you can't move forward -- because you're not good enough, powerful enough, smart enough, rich enough, pretty enough, tough enough, popular enough, etc. ... as if you're destined to fail because, well, you never win at anything anyway...

Woah, there.

Be kind to yourself.

It's time for you to take charge of the situation and turn this ship around.

The way to start making that happen is by deepening your spiritual practice, which entails: shifting your mindset through studying energetic foundational principles, and making the principles real by putting them in to a regular spiritual practice.

And this course was designed fully support you in doing exactly that. 

WHAT YOU'LL GET:

• 4 1-hour in-depth recorded private lessons with Sensei Victoria Whitfield, delivered via biweekly emails, on the following topics (Value: $800):
  • Energy Anatomy, Mindset, Grounding, Meditation, Psychic Self Defense, Empathic Mastery, Angel Energy, and more

Tired of the same old routine?

Heavy news stories got you down?

Find yourself fighting off loneliness and depression?

You have WAY more power than you think, you Unicorn, you!

Negative energy is nothing compared to your secret superpower — FLIRTING!

Watch this week's 9-minute love letter to shine you joyful light in an otherwise dark, cold world!

"I'm tired of my routine."

Have things been feeling a bit grey and boring lately?

Things can get very heavy as we're focused on work, or other people, and our relationships, or as being the anniversary of us having lost someone, etc.

Source is sending some inspiration your way for this week in particular.

It is: flirt with the world! You ready? Let's do this, okay.

Flirting, and this is not necessarily, like, "Okay, we're going to get all in everybody's pants." No, no, no, no.

Flirting is simply having fun and making light. Making light, where there was darkness, making light. Lightening the mood, having a sense of humor, silliness, adventure, cheekiness, right?

Flirt with the world. Perhaps it's that mid-day slump, and you're feeling low on energy. It's time to do something silly. The way that you flirt with the world is not even necessarily with anybody else.

Guess what? It's with you first. How in the world does one flirt with themselves? We could hold up a mirror and we're like, "Oh, my. Look at you."

Whatever makes you want to laugh, or if it's making a silly face, right? Something that makes you want to laugh. Bring the joy to your life. Don't wait for someone else to bring it to you.

Here's the thing that can make relationships, whether they're intimate or platonic go really, dead, boring, whether it's your relationship with another person, or even your business, right.

You wait for the other half of the relationship, right? The business, the person, the child, the animal, et cetera, to always be on, or you'll lean on and depend, the other side, to be flirtatious, fun, silly, adventurous, and spontaneous, right? We'll fall into that kind of a routine.

Come on! Pick the ball up! You can do this. Stacey Martino and Paul Martino who are at relationshipdevelopment.org rock, and they really master on sharing about relationships, and bringing the spark, or as they call, the s-flirt, back to our relationships. Go check them out, by the way. Have so much love and respect for them.

This week in particular, it's about you, however. Bring the flirt in you back. Flirt with your reflection.

Flirt with people at the party. Just make jokes and laugh. Try yourself out. You really can.

Now, I'm getting some kickback in the energy right now, I don't know who is watching this and being like, "Girl, you done gone off the deep end", or, "I don't know how to flirt." If you have a sense of humor, or if you've ever laughed at something, yeah, you can flirt.

It's having a sense or the ability to laugh at yourself, and engage, and be spontaneous, and bring that energy out. Bring the joy. How do you bring joy? If you were to flirt with someone. It's not just like a, "Da da da". No, no, no. This is not seduction flirting. This is just having fun and being silly. Another way that you can find yourself flirting if you're not used to it, is maybe with a baby.

You're sort of, "Hey, sweetheart! How are you! Oh, my gosh, look at you." The weird, gooey things that we do to those poor children, and puppies, and kittens, et cetera. Whatever makes you laugh. This week in particular, though, you are being called on by source to make light. I'm not just talking about making light and joking about a situation, even if it's quite heavy, right, but to bring light as a light worker.

Know this: Bring joy to you life; don't wait for it. Have fun and make light where there was darkness. Shine bright!

That is who you are. You're here to bring more joy, more love, more healing, more connection into this planet. It's up to you. Don't wait for somebody else to do it. Calm down, Victoria.

The guides are about to jump through the camera and say, "Wake up!", right? For now, we're going to go to the oracle cards, because they're, "toot, toot", tucking on my shirt. Our angels, angel therapy by Doreen Virtue, one of 19 decks here at the Dojo.

Let's hear it. Let me pull out the cards here.

Angels, what do we need to know about flirting with the world this week? Why in the world is source telling us to do that?

Ooh la la! This is excellent! Ready?

Shield yourself.

This is pretty ninja, I didn't know that they were going to pull that out. We're coming from, like, the fifth dimension now, fifth level conversation right now. Protect yourself from harsh or fear-based energies by envisioning a cocoon of healing light surrounding you.

Here's where we're going to leave off.

Bringing light, making light, flirting with the world, and just deciding to have fun all by yourself, with yourself, is actually an advanced form of energetic protection.

This is psychic self defense, on the sneaky side. My students and I, we have this expression, we call it "the sneaky reiki" that we do in the background. That's actually one of the sneaky reiki, this under the radar techniques for actually shielding your energy from negativity, is actually bringing joy and bringing light.

Raising the vibrations. Start with you first. Flirt with yourself. Enjoy yourself as if you were someone that you were flirting with, who you really liked.

Blessed be if you're someone who is not exactly comfortable with yourself, but pretend that you're hot to trot, and you're the funniest thing on the planet, and you're going to laugh at whatever in the heck you're about to say next. Try it on for size. Do an experiment, right?

Don't commit, fine. Don't commit, just test, see if you like it, and notice how your vibration raises, and you end up actually rising above all the Krusty Krab negativity that could be floating around you. It'll just, "whoop", repel off.

Send me an e-mail back, comment below, what do you think? Have you tried flirting with the world around you, and yourself? What was the result?

Was it an awkward, hot, delicious mess? Was it a delicious everything?

I would love to hear your stories, oh my gosh. Please spread light, because you are a light worker. Subscribe on YouTube, so that you get your love letters first every week, and from one light worker to another, ready for it?

In Love and Light,

Victoria.

The post Love Letters | Flirt with The World appeared first on Sensei Victoria Whitfield.

Have a hard time knowing what you want lately?

Tired of being known as an indecisive person?

Wish there was a way to heal yourself and gain more clarity?

Indecision is actually a manifestation of unexpressed fears.

In an effort to avoid dealing with our truth, we can hide ourselves behind the phrase "I don't know" as a filler for conversation.

Watch this weeks 10 minute love letter video to gain clarity by naming your fear!

"I don't know what I want."

The phrase that source is sending for you this week in particular is "name your fear." Name your fear.

Oftentimes, we will hold ourselves in, pull back our enthusiasm so far that we forget what we really wanted to manifest or what we really want in the first place because we're just sucking ourselves back, right?

We're just hiding, hiding, hiding, and we have this sense ... It can manifest as a sense of apathy, boredom, fatigue, and you'll really know that this is happening to you when you say, "I don't know" as a knee-jerk reaction or almost like a tick when you're speaking.

You'll be speaking to someone, and they just, like their automatic answer's, "I don't know." There's an "I don't know" that comes forth.

It just shoots out every single time, every single time when we have sucked our energy so far back inside of ourselves that we lose a sense of what our real concerns are, our real goals and desires are, our real passions are.

We just suck ourselves inside, and usually, this is motivated, unfortunately, by fear. Fear of rejection. Fear of being seen, right? Fear of visibility.

Not only that but also fear of failure, fear of having to work hard and put in effort, like a fear of effort. We suck ourselves in, so we don't have to deal with or process what we're afraid of.

Know this: Overusing "I don't know" in everyday #communication is a sign you're hiding unresolved fears. @SenseiWhitfield

The next time you catch yourself saying or you hear someone saying, "I don't know," or if you ask, "How do you feel about us," if you're having the grown-up conversation around relationships, right, and this person says, "I don't know." What do you want in life? What do you want for dinner? "I don't know. I don't know." They're sucking their energy back.

We're not sharing. You aren't sharing yourself when you say, "I don't know."

We did a previous channeling video I don't know how many months ago. I just said, "I don't know." I'm afraid that I don't have all of my love letters memorized, people. I can't. I channel each one. They just flow out of me, but several months ago, we did a channeling on how "I don't know"... If anything, you can put it in YouTube and do a search for, "I don't know." We channeled on the fact that that's always a lie. We say that to hide. We say that to dodge the truth or dodge the reality of it because sharing ourselves fully is much too vulnerable and open.

This week, in particular, Source is saying, "name your fear," so when "I don't know" shows up this week, turn that around by asking yourself, "What am I afraid of right now?"

If someone asks me, super mundane, "what do you want to eat tonight?" "I don't know? What do you want?" Turning that around on myself, I would ask, "Well, what am I afraid of right now? Why do I say, 'I don't know.' What am I afraid of?"

Let me name my fear.

I'm afraid of making a decision. I'm afraid of being decisive. I'm afraid of making a decision and choosing something that I don't like. I'm afraid if I make a decision, the other person's going to have something else in mind. I'm afraid of rocking the boat by having my own point of view.

There's just so many things that could come out of that.

If you name your fear, it dispels that energy. It disperses it. It gets it out.

It takes it from feeling blocked and closed like a finite book or event being shut down, closed. "There's no way that I'm going to know what I want to eat tonight, ladies and gentlemen. It's no way. I don't know. There's no way I will ever know. I've blocked from knowing what I want."

You can shift that by naming your fear, so this is really for someone who's watching this who wants to know what they want.

If that's you, my love, I'm here for you. We are here. The energy is here for you. The angels are on your side. We're here to tell you, "Yes, you do know what you want."

The way that you find out is actually by going underneath what you want as as in, "Dig into your fear." Go there. Go there. It takes courage. You can do it, and there's so much love and clarity that comes out from naming your fear. The minute you do name your fear, it disperses fear's power.

"I'm afraid of the dark." Okay, it's just the dark. "I'm going to go into my bedroom, and I'm not going to imagine a giant arm reaching out and trying to grab me." (Thanks, Ma, for that horrible vision.) I'm just going to be with the darkness. Why is the dark afraid, fearful? What am I afraid of about the dark that I don't know what's going on, okay? Be with that. Be with that uncertainty.

Get the clarity from your fear rather than running from it.

I'm hearing the oracle cards calling and the energy. It's The Indigo Angel Oracle Cards Deck, another Doreen Virtue deck here at the dojo, one of 16 decks and counting. We're always open to receiving donation decks too. If there is one that you would like to donate to the tribe, we'd be happy to receive it. Also, if you have any recommendations. "Victoria, I saw this really great deck." Send me an email at senseivictoriawhitfield@gmail.com. I'd be happy to look into that, maybe even get it.

Angels, what do we need to know right now about naming our fear?

Two cards just came forward. Interesting ... This hasn't happened in a while.

Believe in yourself and Archangel Metatron.

Now, the angels are saying the believe-in-yourself card is coming forward around naming your fear because naming your fear takes courage.

By doing so, you take a stand to say, "You know what? I'm worth the exploration. I'm worth taking a minute to ask and investigate. I really am worth it. I believe that I'm capable of receiving the clarity from this question." Right? Believe in yourself.

Sometimes we avoid ourselves because we don't have that belief or inherent trust that it's going to be okay or that you're even worth the time.

If that's you, you need some extra love. We're here to support you.

Archangel Metatron is also here to support you, so this is the archangel of intuition, revelation and spiritual energy. You can ask for his help, in particular, with this clearing process. Ask him, "Archangel Michael, please help me to name my fear. Please give me the courage. Please heal me so that I'm able to move through this issue."

Wait and watch for the sensations that you get, any visions that you receive or advice that comes through, not just sudden thoughts, ideas and impulses that come to you or people and songs.

I'm searching for the word. People, songs, billboards ... There's going to be spiritual guidance that comes to you as soon as you ask, and that's what Archangel Metatron, in particular, is in charge of.

He also clears your aura. If you feel blocked, there's no such thing as being blocked, but if you feel blocked, you're creating it.

Ask him, "Archangel Michael, please release any blocks that I believe are on me or that are in me, and allow the experience."

Send me an email back at senseivictoriawhitfield@gmail.com. Post below so that I can hear, what are your experiences?

This week in particular. This is a big week, and it takes some courage to do it, but you can. You've got to believe in yourself because I believe in you.

Make sure you subscribe on YouTube so that you get your love letters first every week, and we'll see you next time. Bye.

In Love and Light,

Victoria.

Notice how you feel at that moment - you're already healing!

The post Love Letters | Name Your Fear appeared first on Sensei Victoria Whitfield.

Feel like fear is running your life lately?

Always putting out fires and waiting for the "other shoe" to drop?

Wish you were more confident?

Fear is a great motivator, that's for sure.

But did you know that fear is a choice that we make in the moment, and that we can choose to feel differently?

Watch this week's 11-minute Love Letter video to learn how to stop choosing fear!

"I'm afraid to take that next step."

This week, Source kind of knocked me off my chair, because she said that fear is always a choice. It's very intense news, and I don't know who this is for. This may be right on time for somebody right now.

Fear is always a choice.

Perhaps there's a decision that's been coming up where either you're really like, "Oh, I don't know if I can do this. I'm afraid to go through with it. I'm afraid to take that next step, or what is so-and-so going to think of me?" Or, you know, going to the gym, or whatever.

Fear, the guides are saying, is always a choice.

Think of it this way. We as a human species are hard-wired for fear.

Depending on your world view, we've been inheriting, for either hundreds of thousands, thousands, or even millions of years, genes from our ancestors.

You know, way back in the day, put it that way, some of our ancestors would think, "Wow, there's a ravenous raccoon right there. Oh man, he looks super cuddly. I'm going to go and hang out with him, give him a big hug, maybe cuddle up against him," because they were outgoing, fearless, and just wanted to connect with life.

Meanwhile, we had other ancestors who are hanging out in the tree, thinking, "I'm really scared of that ravenous looking raccoon. Sure, he's fuzzy, but I don't know. I'm not getting a good feeling from that guy. I think I'm going to hang back here and you know what? Not only that, I think I'll just wrap myself in a ton of banana leaves and hide inside the tree or cave, anywhere that I can hide, as much as possible."

Who do you think lived, not only to tell the story, but also to pass down their genes?

The person who was excited and went and hung out with the ravenous, horrible raccoons, or the one that wrapped himself in banana leaves and hid inside a cave until everything was fine? Or brought everyone else into the cave and made it with them?

Obviously, the anxious crazy-pants who was in the cave. Compound that over the last few millennia, and ta-da, here we are. This is so brutal.

We're hard-wired for fear. It's evolutionary protection mechanism to ensure that you continue forward in life, is being fearful.

That's your ego, right? She's getting up and beating on her cowbell, "Dong, dong, dong, danger ahead! Dong, dong, dong!" or at least that's what my ego does. She has a cowbell. More cowbell, right?

Be kind to yourself. If you've been feeling really fearful lately, or if you have an irrational fear, such as the fear of number thirteen, right, you never want to go onto the thirteenth floor, or unlucky thirteen, or fear of arachnids.

Spider people are really nice. They get going their way, and you go on yours. You don't really have to worry about them.

What would happen if you realize that every time that you are feeling fearful, you are choosing to feel fear. What would that mean? Perhaps that would mean that you have power to decide to feel a different way.

Know this: When you choose from fear in the moment, you create fear in the future. #freeyourself @senseiwhitfield 

Years ago, one of my spiritual teachers, during a deep healing session together, she helped me bring out of my shadow this incredible learning that I'm going to share with you. What came through in that session together is that every time I am afraid, I am also excited at the same time.

In psychology, this is actually backed up.

The only difference biochemically, metabolically between fear emotions and excitement, elation emotions is where you're breathing.

You can actually, I didn't know this until years later, this was just something that came through in the spiritual session.

Not to downplay it; it was profound, profound work. Changed my life, yes.

If you are breathing up here like, shallow, top of the lungs, that's fear. You're choosing, right, to generate more fear chemicals and responses in your body.

If you were to choose, while you're feeling fearful, to breath deeper, breathe into your pelvis is what I call it here at the dojo during our meditation classes, breathe deep into your pelvis, you can actually access way more than just fear, but excitement, innovation, inspiration, motivation, while also, yes, feeling that intense energy.

Where you choose to breathe determines who you will choose to be in the next moment. It all comes down to understanding that fear is a choice.

I'm hearing the oracle cards calling in the energy right now.

The deck that came through is Healing with the Angels oracle cards deck, by Doreen Virtue, one of many decks that you can come and play with if you come visit the dojo here in Westfield, New Jersey.

They said, don't even, don't even, don't even shuffle. Bottom card. That never happens, by the way.

Spiritual growth.

Knowing that fear is a choice for you, simply knowing that, is already working on your spirit's expansion right now. They're telling me to read. This is a week of spiritual growth for you, the guides are saying.

"You are going through a time of rapid spiritual growth. Enjoy the process!"

Exclamation point, by the way. I'm laughing because when I've had times of rapid spiritual growth, I had to choose to enjoy the process. It more kind of felt like I was being ripped open. You know.

"During this time, you may feel a mixture of many feelings: confusion, excitement, fear, and wonder. You love your renewed connection with the divine, and you wish you could read, study, learn, or meditate on a full-time basis. Simultaneously, though, you may worry about the implications that your spiritual studies will have on the rest of your life. What impact will your new spiritual pursuits have on your job, marriage or friendships? These worries create a fear that may erode the enjoyment which your spiritual studies bring. Surrender these fears to God. Trust that you are supported, loved, and guided each moment by God and the angels. Don't worry about how your future will blend with your spiritual growth. Trust that the same power that brought you to your spiritual path will also take care of everything else for you. After all, this power supports all of the planet in the sky. It will surely support you perfectly, too."

Here's where we're going to leave.

When you're feeling fear next, choose to give that feeling of fear over. It's just energy.

You can give it over to the earth. You can give it over to the sun. You can give it over to God, to the angels. You can give it over to a loved one of yours who is always inspiring, always your champion, always loving you, but they may be more than alive at the moment.

Hot potato that fear. Don't hold it inside of you.

Don't transfer it to somebody as in to make them fearful, but instead, we're talking about surrender. Surrendering that fear.

"You know what, I notice in this moment," say to yourself, "that I'm choosing to be fearful," and if this is your belief system, "Lord, I give it over to you. I'm choosing," ooh the chills, "I'm choosing to give it over to you, because I know that there's more for me. I don't have to be afraid." Right?

Because fear is a choice, and the choice is yours.

Send me an email back. Comment below. Let me know what's coming up for you around this. I'm curious to hear your response.

Make sure that you subscribe on Youtube so that you get your Love Letters first every week, and share this with someone that you care about who could really use some love and encouragement and positive energy.

I'll see you next week. Bye!

The post Love Letters | Choosing Fear appeared first on Sensei Victoria Whitfield.

Can't seem to escape all the negativity?

Finding it harder to stay positive these days?

Negative people, news, places and self-talk got you down?

It's hard to stay bright and positive all the time when most of the world is driven by negative and pessimistic inspiration.

How many times have you been having a great day, feeling happy and connected, only for one news headline or snide comment from some angry person to knock you all out of whack?

Watch the above video to learn about the nature of negativity and how to deal with it with grace and ease!

"No news is good news."

Way back in 2008, after reading The 4-Hour Workweek by the always awesome and crazy efficient Tim Ferriss, I made a commitment to going on a low-information diet: no more news.

No more watching, listening or reading the news except for headlines that I happen to see while passing by a newspaper or what people walk up and tell me directly.

And giving up the news changed my life.

From there, it extended to giving up watching television, mainly because with Youtube and Netflix, who needs TV?

For years I was commercial and newsflash free; now I only watch TV here and there when I know a show I like is airing. But it took years for me to detox from my TV and news addiction.

Now, it's easy enough to just shut off a TV and squelch that firehose of negativity. But, as nice as it would be, we can't quite "shut off" negative people--like negative bosses, colleagues or family members...

And, better yet, what happens when the source of negativity is in our head? Self-sabotage, anyone? 🙂

I know I do it to myself--and I'm certainly not the only one!

So, what can we do? Is negativity just unavoidable?

Yes. But the challenge is to heal and deal with it, not avoid it.

You see, if you're reading this article right now, you're a Lightworker; that means you're here to spread more love and light (enlightenment) on Earth in this lifetime.

And that's exactly why you're a naturally sensitive and positive person. That's also why you're so drawn to personal development and spiritual connection, too, because you intuitively know that as you raise your vibration, you give others permission to do the same.

So, rather than avoiding all negative energy and all the things that "kill your vibe," you have a higher calling to confront, heal and deal with the darkness.

Besides, remember the Law of Yin and Yang? There is always some dark in the light, and some light in the dark.

This Universal Law creates and maintains universal balance and expansion. Without contrast, life becomes unnaturally stagnant and sterile.

That being said, let's explore what is negative energy, and how we can send more love to the idea of it, rather than running in fear and ignorance.

Negativity and negative energy are at their core just energy, and all energy is essentially neutral. The idea of "negativity" or things being "negative" itself is relative and therefore a judgement.

All judgments are mindsets and stories we tell ourselves based on dominant thoughts we choose to think, and all judgments create emotional and energetic attachments to what we are judging. So, in other words, we actually create all the negativity we experience.

Know this: Negativity has no power over you that you didn't give it. #freeyourmind #loveandlight

Did you get that? We aren't saying that you caused that person to get shot or that you caused that tsunami to happen or that you caused the number of unemployed people to skyrocket (example of negative news headlines).

Instead, we are saying what happens is you choose how you feel, and because you are looking (vigilantly) for negativity, you'll find it and feel it.

Here's how this happens: you interpret what you're seeing or hearing (you spot a newspaper headline: dog found abused and abandoned), you create a "negative" judgment (thought: animal abuse is bad), you internalize the "negative" feelings associated with it (thought and feeling: dog abuse turns my stomach and makes me angry), and then you internalize responsibility for it because you know about it (thought and feeling: I know something must be done, but I can't do anything, so I feel helpless). It in turn tangles you up emotionally and spiritually with what you see or hear in that moment even if it has nothing to do with you, and because you feel helpless, the "negative energy" drains you and kills your vibe.

And that is how what was simply just a passing news headline can suddenly have enough power to ruin your day. Or even your week or month, or perhaps even more as you rehash the story over and over.

Here's the key: to deal with negativity, you need to unplug from it emotionally.

We're not saying become a cold-hearted person or shut down. If you're reading this, you're already a sensitive, loving, spiritual and empathic person, and that's your gift. So we're saying you need to be a good steward of your gift, knowing when and how to adjust it to protect your health and wellbeing (physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually).

It's about learning to flow with your emotions and the energies that influence them.

Watch this week's video for the Oracle Card of the Week, which shows you how to release negative energy and negative mindsets!

In Love and Light,

Victoria.
