Having a hard time focusing?

Been "off your game" or feeling disconnected from your loved ones, or even yourself lately?

Wish you could connect to your inner guidance right now?

Sometimes we can feel like we are disconnected from our spiritual selves -- perhaps during the day-to-day at work, or even when something devastating has happened in life.

Now's the time to learn how to center yourself and connect to your inner spiritual guidance -- your heart.

Watch this week's 7-minute Love Letter to learn fast, simple techniques for connecting to your heart!

"How do I connect to my core?"

This week, Source wants you to connect to your heart.

I'm hearing in particular that there has been a lot of self-deprecation, feelings of disconnection, feeling blocked or misunderstood.

There's also a lot of negativity outwardly around you as well.

Source wants you to connect to your core, connect to your heart this week in particular because when you are centered, which is all that this is, when you are centered you are better able to respond to life with wisdom, with honor and with a sense of peace and balance.

Know this: Disconnection is an illusion. You are permanently connected to Spirit, right now. #believe @SenseiWhitfield

I'm going to give you two techniques. We're going to do them together right now for connecting to your heart and connecting to your core.

One, first and foremost especially if you notice that you're immersed in someone else's thought patterns about you, or if you're coming off of an argument or coming off of a particularly negative environment is wipe it off.

You know the phrase issues in your tissues? 

Your body is like a crystal. Crystals are record keepers. They record all the energy that is around them.

We're made out of silica, so your body is recording all of the emotional energy that she or he comes in contact with throughout the day.

One simple way to clear it off is wipe it off. Do this with me.

I'm doing this on camera to do it for you, if you can't move your physical body. Get it off of the legs here.

This is on behalf of those of you who can't physically move your body, but if you can, wipe if off.

Do you feel chills? Do you feel tingly already? Isn't it amazing how effective that already is?

For one, that centers you because you connect to your kinesthetic sense, your touch sense, to your body, to your center, as well as activate all of that stored up emotion that's in and around you and flick it off, shake it off.

Then two, what I want you to do is take your hands and bend them in, fingers pointing towards your heart. Set them right on your chest.

Close your eyes and imagine that you could drop your mind and your awareness right behind your fingertips on your sternum.

Don't push in but breathe into that gentle pressure on your sternum. Exhale. Give me two more of those breathing in, using your imagination to see and feel your mind behind your fingertips in your chest. Last one, breathing in. Exhaling.

Hold that position, breathing regularly for the next few moments really sinking into your heart. When you're ready, coming back or stay there.

I'm going to read this week's oracle card for you. It's coming from the Messenger Oracle cards deck.

This is one of the many gift decks here at the dojo. Thank you for your support! Your contribution serves and heals so many other people, you have no idea. I'm determined to share your love with as many people as possible. Thank you.

What we need to know this week in particular:

We are all connected.

The guides are saying, "Read the book on this one in particular." Isn't that beautiful?

We are dependent upon others for life. We destroy the very things upon which we depend too. If we do, we too shall parish. We are all connected, we are all one. Do harm to the natural world, and you do harm to yourself. You are more than just a part of the human race. You are a child of Gaia, of earth. You are brother and sister to all life and living things. Love them as you love yourself. Sustain them as you sustain yourself.

Here's where we'll leave off.

Connecting to your core helps you connect to that still, small space of oneness within you. The inner wisdom.

We are all part of that and as you do so, you release a resonant frequency that spreads connection throughout the earth as well.

We're all sensitive on purpose, and we can feel us in your tribe and you out there can feel that consciousness spreading.

For those of you that are interested in New Age, metaphysical things, etc, you feel that wave of connection that is out there. Your tribe of light as we call it here at the dojo.

How did it feel to drop into your chest? Did you feel it? Did you get to have a moment of stillness, or a moment of connection?

Comment below. Send me an email back or do a video response. Sending you so much love, blessings. I will see you next week. Make sure you subscribe on YouTube. Bye!

In Love and Light,

Victoria.

Do you feel exhausted after talking to certain people and don't know why?

Annoyed how certain activities suck up way more of your time, yet leave you feeling like nothing much has actually gotten done?

Frustrated that no matter how much you give at work or at your organization, the more they ask of you?

There's a term for things that drain your energy -- spiritually, physically, emotionally, financially, etc. -- and it's called an Energy Vampire.

As hard-working, sensitive, loving and giving people, we tend to attract them -- Yikes!

Watch the above video to learn what an Energy Vampire is, and what to do about it.

"Blah, blah! I 'vant to suck your blood!"

This week’s topic is Energy Vampires.

Now, the vampires we're referring to you are not like the movies  where someone comes up to you, bites you on the neck and says, “ha! I got your energy!” drinking it out of you in the literal sense. No, this is very different.

Not everybody knows what an energy vampire is, but this Love Letter is for those who don't know what to do and don't know what an energy vampire is, and as well as for those of us who know all too well what they are, but don't know what to do about it. So let's get to it!

An energy vampire is someone or some thing – like an activity, or a space, an item – that for whatever reason when you are in its presence for an certain period of time, the more you're around them, the more drain you feel emotionally and physically.

What does that mean? The person, place, or thing could be really positive. It could be in Florida, a sunny day at the beach, and everything is supposed to be amazing, right?

You could be at a party spending all this time with these great people who are supposed to be really nice and they're your friends and family, or they're supposed to be your significant other or your children, or your pet, or even your business.

But it still drains you.

Here's how to tell if you're being drained:

If you are in this person, place, or thing's presence for let's say one hour

1) Do you feel more energized, do you feel excited, happy, wired, inspired, lifted up and encouraged?

2) Or after an hour in their presence, do you feel on guard, small, or hiding, or are you saying to yourself “ah, I'm getting tired.”?

The exhaustion starts setting in physically as well as emotionally. You say to yourself “I feel like I'm just talking to a brick wall here. We're getting nowhere, and the more energy I exert, it's like it's not enough.”

The more you give, the more, it takes, or the more hats you have to wear in order to be good enough or acceptable.

The person will tell you more of their life story – and you have to hear it in order for them to "make you understand" how they feel – and they keep talking about how “this happened to me, this and then this happened too...”

They feel great because they got to dump, dump, dump on you.

They’ll often start by saying something like “I just want to share.” or “Let me just get this off my chest” and onto yours, or “Just one more thing” over and over... Sound familiar?

Know This: My time and My space are a "No Dumping Zone." #affirmation #selfcare

Someone in the energy just told me to mention that in psychology, there is a phenomena called the “Doorknob Effect.” An example of this comes up often socially.

Imagine it's the end of your time together with someone – maybe you're doing a session with somebody or maybe someone came over for tea and just to talk and hang out – and you say: "Oh, well, time to go. I got to get going" so you can wrap things up.

You both walk over to the door, and then they touch the doorknob, stop and say, "Oh! One more thing I just thought of..."

It's like the doorknob can activate that “one more thing” for them. Whereas you on the other end are may be thinking, "Oh my god, I gotta go. I want to pee." Yeah... Energy vampires.

Not only on that level, but maybe we're in a relationship with one of them. Sometimes they not only suck our emotional energy and our physical energy, but also our financial energy.

They keep asking you for more, more, more. "Oh, I can't play this bill. Can you cover it?" Or, "Oh, I missed this." Or, "I really want that." It's just an escalation.

Here's the thing: We always want to give abundantly when we feel safe to, but it's important to tune in to how YOU feel when you're giving.

It helps to ask yourself, first: “okay, do I feel like I'm getting so much more spiritually and emotionally? Do I feel supported and sparkling when I give in a big way?” or “Do I feel like, all right, I'm pushing, we're working hard.” or “Maybe one day this person is going to become my vision of what they are” rather than accepting who they currently are at face value.

Ok, that's all well and good Victoria, but why do energy vampires exist? Where does all this come from?

Here's why: If any person, place, or thing is draining your energy – like where they just keep going, going, going as if the story that they're telling doesn't stop, or if they're sharing, they just don't stop talking and share the conversation time with you – it's because they, the person, place, or thing, is supremely ungrounded.

Now, what exactly is “being grounded,” and how does that apply to energy vampires?

You’ll have to watch the rest of this week’s video strategy to find out!

In Love and Light,

Victoria.

The post Love Letters | What Are Energy Vampires and Etheric Cords? appeared first on Sensei Victoria Whitfield.

Are you "stuck in your head" often because you're so stressed out and busy these days?

Feeling frustrated that you're not getting through to people, or that your loved ones, clients or colleagues aren't quite connecting with you in the way you would like them to?

Worried that when you talk no one hears you, or do you even feel that people think you are "ranting" or "rambling" all the time?

Communication issues have to do with the part of your energetic body that's called the Throat Chakra.

The Throat Chakra governs your ability to speak up and be heard with clarity and authenticity in this lifetime.

Watch the above video to explore why you should stop "speaking your mind," and what you should start doing instead, to heal your communication issues!

Clear communication is an energy exchange.

It involves you expressing yourself clearly, as well as the other person experiencing your expression clearly.

A healthy Throat Chakra exchange leaves you feeling heard, connected and well received.

Therefore, the energy exchanged in communication needs to be clear and open on both sides: both for that of the speaker and listener.

It's obvious that having a garbled message can ruin the quality of our communication with others.

However, what may not be so obvious is that having garbled energy can also affect the quality of our communication with others, perhaps even moreso than the message itself.

Why? Because everyone is an empathic listener, to some degree.

And, on top of that, the majority of people have no idea what the heck that means. YAY! 🙂 It's a hot mess, I know, but hey, that's what we are here to solve, right lightworkers?

So what exactly is an empathic listener?

Does that mean everyone is psychic or something? No, not exactly.

An empathic listener is someone who is "listening" to or moreover aware of the energy that someone else is giving off in a given situation. In short, they pick up the person's "vibes."

For example, have you ever had the experience of watching someone read a really well-written speech, but you could tell they were faking it or being disingenuous?

What gave them away? They had correct body language, they varied their voice tone elegantly, and said all the right words. Heck, they even had a great outfit on and smelled good!

But how you could tell that they didn't really feel what they were saying to you, even though all of your 5 senses were being "correctly" tickled by the book?

Here's how: your 6th Empathic Sense felt the imbalanced energy that they were sending out, and you in turn concluded they were being disingenuous.

This is therefore a more extreme example of someone speaking their mind, and not speaking their heart.

The meaning, the resonance, gets lost in translation when we are personally out of alignment when communicating.

And that's a big reason why people can and will misunderstand what we are trying to say, or even write off what we are talking about: it's not coming from the right place.

Know this: Don't speak your mind. Speak your heart. #communication #leadership

When we try to do a "perfect" job in talking, sometimes the heart of the matter can get lost in translation.

Maybe you've been preparing your presentation at work for a very long time, or maybe you've been trying to figure out "just the right way" to tell your loved one something that's a sensitive subject.

Just get out of your head, and into your heart.

The ego is very powerful at wanting to wrap himself around everything you experience. However, it can in it's wrapping end up choking the flow of expression with too much censorship and analysis paralysis.

So, when you feel like your loved ones, clients or colleagues aren't quite getting it, make time to stop what you're saying and check in with them. You can ask "did that make sense or have I lost you?" for example.

Watch this week's video for the Oracle Card of the Week, which explains exactly how to speak from your heart and who you're really doing it for!

In Love and Light,

Victoria.
