Are you uncomfortable receiving compliments?

Is it weird for you to ask for *and* to receive help from others?

Feeling out of place in your new position at work, like you don't deserve it?

Being seen is always uncomfortable; that's why we tend to hide our gifts, rather than share them openly and often.

But positive discomfort can also be a sign of growth and good changes happening, if you know what to look for.

Watch this week's 10-minute Love Letter, the final installment in our 4-week exploration of the Power of Positive Community, to harness the healing power of Evolutionary Visibility in your life and business!

"Sometimes I feel like I don't belong."

This is our fourth and final week of a deep dive into the power of positive community. So if you haven't seen the previous installments, I highly recommend them. Stop, go back, and watch them on YouTube, or on my blog at victoriawhitfield.com.

This week, for our fourth and final installment, where we're going to land the plane of our journey through the power of positive community is what happens when you actually are in positive community, what you can expect. And it is ... Drum roll please, evolutionary visibility.

Evolutionary visibility. It is so powerful, and this phrase came straight from my guides. I've tried to read more on it, and I haven't really heard of it. So you heard it here first.

Evolutionary visibility is the true essence and power of being in positive community.

Last week we covered the lions and the kittens, right? Where's your mindset at? And we covered the concept of the lioness who grew up around cats, so that finally when she was come of age and fully-formed, it was a bit of a surprise and a shock feeling completely out of space.

What would happen if she finally got around a pride of lions? This is where we're going this week in particular. Are we ready for it? So evolutionary visibility is the experience of others seeing you as your true self, your higher self, and because of that, they hold you to that standard and call that out of you.

And with all of that support around you, you evolve into your full and highest self.

It takes two parts, however. When we are first the lioness, that grew up around cats and kittens, we have a certain self image of ourself. We are a cat. We are a kitten, yes? And then when we get around lions, there's this fear, a sense of, I don't belong.

Maybe you have experienced this in your business because you've enrolled in group coaching or you joined a networking group or association. Or maybe you moved your business to a more premium area. Or you may have even rebranded at a higher vibration, right?

And there's this kind feeling that you have where "I'm a fraud. I'm a fraud. I am not what that says I am. I am not what you say I am. I am not what the branding and those ... I'll never be enough. I'll never be enough."

That fraud and not enough-ness, our inner-achiever, comes out with a vengeance, especially when we're growing.

This is a sign of growing pains, however. And especially if you're feeling discomfort. It's extra important for you to be surrounded by lions who will champion you and celebrate you in your power and say, "Yeah. Bring out those claws. Yeah, let your mane shake out.

You're brilliant. You're gorgeous. You're fabulous. You're an expert. You're the best of the best." Those type of cheerleaders and champions cause us to evolve. They're like a mirror, a cosmic mirror. All brilliant loving people are cosmic mirrors, and when they stand in front of you, they reflect your greatness back to you.

With that, the power of positive community is allowing yourself to be seen in that light. There's an element of vulnerability that comes being seen as brilliant. If you think of the light, like the lamp back there, when you first turn a light on, there's a bit of an adjustment in your eyes, if you're sensitive to light.

Know this: All brilliant, loving people are Cosmic Mirrors. When they stand in front of you, they reflect your #greatness back to you. Allow yourself to be seen as brilliant by your #positive community.

Or even especially if you've been in the dark for so long. It hurts at first, but then you adjust.

That pain is the opening of your eyes, the relaxing of your ocular muscles to allow for more light to flood in. The same thing happens to us emotionally and mentally when we open up about our life purpose, or we open up around, this is what I really want to focus on, or this is who I really am.

There's a vulnerability in that opening. But when you're around positive community, if and when you open vulnerably, it is powerful. And those cosmic mirrors of those loving people will reflect back to you the brilliance that you are. Your mindset may be a couple light years behind you, but if you stick around that positive community long enough, you will adjust and relax into your greatness.

So this week in particular, the guides are asking you to bring more evolutionary visibility into your life. Being safe and vulnerable and open in your brilliance and in your power, and because others are reflecting that and championing it and celebrating it in you, you can evolve and step fully into it.

I'm hearing the oracle cards calling in the energy. It's the fairies. Healing With the Fairies by Doreen Virtue. Okay. And I'm always accepting donations if you have an oracle card deck that you would love to donate to the dojo, go to my "About Me" page. There's a "Give Back" link, and there's all the information that you'd like for donating. Thank you, by the way, in advance.

Fairies, what do we need to know right now about evolutionary visibility and positive community? Stepping into our greatness and positive community. Don't shuffle anymore, they said. Ooh. New opportunity. This is where we're going to leave off for this week. Really exciting.

So the fairies are bringing forward a card that says, "You have, within one degree of separation of you ... " Moi, right here. "You are directly connected to the opportunity of stepping into positive community and evolutionary visibility being in that community." Are you aware of that? Be on the lookout. There is a new opportunity coming your way to be part of a next level positive community. A next level space and group of people who see you and celebrate you in your power and in your brilliance.

I highly recommend that you go and check out my visionary shaman circle at victoriawhitfield.com/jointhetribe. Go there, read through it. That is the next level tribe that we have here at the dojo of lions and lionesses who are championing you in your high vibrational presence.

But what's your new opportunity that's coming through? What positive community are you going to commit to join? Is it my Visionary Shaman Circle?

Go ahead and send me an email back or comment below what comes up for you around this. Do you want to be held in that brilliant space of evolutionary visibility? Curious to hear it.

So that's it for this week's Love Letter video, and for our four week deep dive on the power of positive community. Make sure you subscribe on YouTube so that you get these Love Letter videos first every week.

And remember, if there's any way that I can help you balance your mind, body, and business, just let me know at victoriawhitfield.com/contact.

We'll see you there. Bye.

The post Love Letters | Evolutionary Visibility – Part 4 of 4 appeared first on Sensei Victoria Whitfield.

Is procrastination your middle name?

Avoiding something very important because you're scared of confronting it?

Feeling insecure about a certain part of your body?

Source is sending you a wave of confidence and productivity right now.

It's time to step up and take responsibility for shifting your energy - no more waiting to be saved!

Watch this week's 10-minute Love Letter video to start taking ownership of yourself and your life!

"Why didn't I follow my gut feelings?"

This week in particular, Source is saying it's time for you to own it. Own it.

Whatever's coming up, when we say own it, it's time for you to take ownership.

This is about taking personal responsibility, about claiming and really accepting into you something that you may have been hiding, avoiding, or when it comes up, you push it to the side. Especially, the guides say, own your natural intuition.

What does that mean? What that means is develop, accept and cultivate your relationship with your natural intuition. Learn about her. Practice using her. Own it.

Don't dabble here and there or believe but then if someone asks kind of couch away or cower away from it. No, no, no. Own it.

You know, you know that that was the right decision for you and when you didn't make it you're kicking yourself in the face like: 

• • "I knew that I should have done this."

• • "Why didn't I follow my gut feelings?"

• • "Why didn't I follow my intuition?"

• "Why didn't I see the signs, or moreover, why didn't I accept the signs that I did see?"

This is a little bit of tough love, but it's because I believe in you. We believe in you here at the tribe at the dojo. Source is behind you always. Own it this week.

It's not just your natural intuitive sense, which by the way, which everyone has. I don't care how un-spiritual people want to say others are or how people want to say that they are. "I'm not into that woo woo stuff." Yeah, okay. You get hunches as if that is an intuition. I'm going to leave that there because I can go on a whole rant and we want to keep this to a reasonable amount of time, but it's time that you own it.

It's not just your natural intuition though. It may be that you messed up and because we are taught perform and perform at a high A level, right? A for awesome. Always get As. There's no other letters in the alphabet because there's only A.

We're taught to perform at a high level, and A means not just awesome, but acceptable. If you don't do an A performance or produce an A level product, then you're not acceptable. Own it.

If you have an ear that's out to the side or a chipped tooth or a gap in your teeth, right, or you have a mole or you know, a little bit of extra juice in your shape, own it. Rather than punishing, punishing, ignoring, down playing, hiding. Own it.

I myself, I used to have a lot of self-consciousness about the gap in my teeth, especially because from time to time it makes me whistle unexpectedly, but I wouldn't smile because I was so shy to do it. Right? To show that oh, I don't have perfect teeth. No, I've never had braces. It took a dentist who has a bit more of a spiritual mindset to say, "No, Victoria, your teeth come together so beautifully. God created them so beautifully. No, you don't need braces." For him to be so passionate about the natural shape of my smile, for me to say, "Wait a minute, maybe I don't have hideous teeth. Maybe it's okay for me to have a gap in my teeth." Then one of my aunt's just flat out said, "You know it's sexy. Madonna has a gap in her teeth."

Know this: Own your imperfections - they make you unique and give you depth!

Own your imperfections. Don't let them slow you down. In fact, the mistakes of our lives and the imperfections that we have and have to deal with not only color our lives and make you unique, but it also gives us depth.

If you have been able to make a mistake and come out on the other side of it, that means you have a depth of wisdom. You've gone another level knowing what not to do. You have a new depth of wisdom that wasn't there before. Accept, integrate, and own that wisdom.

Own the fact that it happened and that you can own this present moment being the best version of yourself, the highest vibrational version of yourself, the most present moment of yourself. Don't let it weight you down.

I'm hearing the Oracle Cards calling the energy. The deck this week in particular is life purpose oracle cards deck, so the angels are showing up more of our sense of direction as well as giving us inspiration if we feel a little bit stuck and crusty energetically.

Angels, what do we need to know right now about owning it? Is there something that we're not owning about our brilliance that maybe you could tell us? Oh my. Children.

Oh my goodness. Your life purpose involves helping, teaching, and healing children. This ... I'm being guided to speak to someone very much so in particular.

I won't say your name, but the guides are telling me you're going to watch this love letter when it airs or whenever you click on it. You know that you're supposed to be working with children, but you think because I don't have my masters of education with kids or because I don't have kids of my own or because my kids are a certain age, you have this story.

I really don't know who I'm talking to, but I'm going to stay specific. The guides are telling me to do so. I'm getting really warm right now.

You have a story that you keep telling yourself to avoid the fact that you are supposed to be working with children. Maybe you're afraid of what they may do.

Kids can smack you in the face or say the most rude things, or even simply by them being children can bring up scary parts of our own childhood. It's time for you to own it. This week in particular.

It may not be like, "Oh, I'm going to take that job working with kids or start that part of my business giving back to kids" or something like that. It may be just this week really journaling and saying, "You know what, I've been avoiding this about working with children and it's time for me to own that."

The minute you're aware of it, it starts to heal, but especially if you're called to work with children but you're having a fear around it, thinking that. Or telling yourself a story that you're not good enough, the guides are saying you need to reach out and get help with that.

Whether it's working on your energy here at the dojo to raise your vibration open enough to share with children and cultivate that vision that you see or if it's going to a therapist and really a psychotherapist, so you can process what aspects of your childhood are coming up for you when you see children.

You really have to own it this week in particular. It's time to take action.

Send me an email back. Comment below. Tell me what's coming up for you. I'm curious to hear, who out there am I talking to? Was it you?

You don't have to say what your situation is if it's quite private, but just give me a post below and say, "You're talking to me." I get those all the time and I love to see who source had be channel to in particular. I never know. I never know unless you tell me.

Make sure you subscribe on YouTube so that you get your love letter first and share this with someone. All right, I'm sending you so much love and blessings and you ready for it? I'll see you next week

 In Love and Light,

Victoria.

The post Love Letters | Own It appeared first on Sensei Victoria Whitfield.

Too scared to say how you really feel?

Always find yourself holding your tongue to keep the peace?

Hiding who you really are or what you believe to make everyone else feel comfortable?

Your message, your beliefs, your wellbeing and your point of view are just as important as that of anyone else.

This week, it's time for you to be bold and take a stand.

Watch this week's 9-minute Love Letter video to find out why you haven't had he guts to take a stand yet, and what you can do about it!

"I'm a giver, I'm not a taker."

This week, Source says, "It's time for you to dig deep, have courage, and take a stand."

Apparently, for quite some time there has been a message that you've been holding in your belly, close to you, hiding sharing it for quite some time.

But this week Source- to whoever this is for- is saying, "Take a stand." This is about being bold.

Speaking your truth and stepping fully into your purpose.

The guides are saying, "Let's pause for a moment and discuss however why we don't take a stand."

First, the number one reason why we don't take a stand when we feel this truth within us such as a, "No, this isn't right," or, "No I don't want to," or, "Yes, this is what I believe in," or, "This is what I believe is the best route for us." Right? Making that offer and ask.

The number one reason why we don't do it is because we don't want to take up space. Taking.

Right now, the guides are telling me to single out anyone who is watching who identifies as a giver.

We give energy, we give love, we give support, we give encouragement. We give permission, we give our attention, we give our awareness, we give so much. We give our funds, we give our energy. If this is you, this week in particular instead of giving, you have to take a stand.

I know for a natural giver that sounds really uncomfortable because, "I'm a giver, I'm not a taker."

Because you have to be one or the other, right? Because we live in a dichotomy universe. It's all about black and white and separation, right? There's no such thing as separation. It's important to respect balance and universal harmony.

Holding that message in you, does not only harm to your energy because you assume the brunt of the responsibility for managing that message and holding in all of that anxiety. Anxiety can be seen as power.

Whoa, yeah, we said that. Yes it can be seen as power, but there's way more power that's much more loving and respectful to your body than holding that message in.

We don't want to take up space. We want other people to shine and everyone else to feel comfortable and be pleased.

Know this: If you're used to GIVING, it won't feel good TAKING a stand at first, but you can do it. #selfcare @SenseiWhitfield

Two, the second reason why we don't take a stand, is because we believe we don't know what our stance is. 

When you are so used to giving energy, you become more focused on those that are outside of you than what your core values are.

You're just accustomed to being externally focused, but it's important for you to honor your center and be clear on what your values, what your desires are, and how to communicate them.

It takes a lot of courage to take a stand. You have to assume that you are worthy to take up space, and two, you have to know who you are, what you want, and be able to communicate that.

The Oracle Cards for this week that want to really help us take a stand are. Archangel Oracle Cards deck, one of many Doreen Virtue decks that we have here as well as other kinds of decks at the dojo.

If you ever want to donate one, send it on over. You can go to our About Page here to find our mailing address. (If you can't find it there just send me an email back.)

Angels, archangels. What do we need to know right now about taking a stand this week in particular?

Overcoming difficulties. This is archangel Jeremiel, and one really big feather as a sign to have a higher state of consciousness. See the big picture is what I'm hearing specifically from this rendition of Archangel Jeremiel. The message is, "The worst is now behind you and you are surmounting any previous challenges," and this is where we'll leave off for the week.

We've seen this card before, but this time in particular, for you to take a stand you need to understand that in the past, you were someone who would keep your mouth shut, to try and make sure everyone was happy.

You were someone who didn't know exactly what their values were, or what they want, or how to communicate it. Bring the mindset of, "I was that person, but where I am right now," say this with me. "Where I am right now, is I am decisive. I am decisive. I know who I am and I take the opportunities that come to me." Because now is the time that you're overcoming.

Now. Don't focus on who you were, and don't be afraid of who you're going to become. Get out of the past and the future.

Be here right now and decide to take a stand. When you're standing, you're not moving back or forward. You are right here. Breathe that in. Be right here.

Send me an email back, comment below. Let me know what you think about this. Is this speaking to you?

Make sure you subscribe on Youtube so that you get your love letters first every week and get ready for it. See you next week.

Victoria.

The post Love Letters | Take A Stand appeared first on Sensei Victoria Whitfield.

Are you too quick to say yes when others ask you for anything?

Finding yourself overscheduled, overwhelmed and overbooked lately?

Scared to say "No" because you don't want to hurt their feelings?

It's natural to love helping people and being involved -- heck, you're known for being the helper, healer and leader!

But what happens when you feel like you can't say "No" because you're afraid they'll think you're selfish for taking time for yourself?

Watch this week's 9-minute Love Letter video to stop over-committing yourself to others.

"But I'm the helper. That's what I do."

This week, Source says, "Don't commit. In fact, stop it. Don't commit. Don't do it."

Now, for all those of you out there who are thinking, "Yes! I don't have to put in work" — this message is not what you would expect, so hold your horses.

Instead, Source is saying don't commit because you need to stop over-committing.

This is for all of us out there in the tribe who love to say, "Yes, sure I will. Oh! I'll help you. Yeah, no problem. I can clear my schedule to do this random thingy for you at the drop of a hat, sure." Or, "Oh! I didn't have plans this weekend, even though I wanted to spend time with myself. Sure, I'll go out to your party and help you with all the blah blah..."

Don't! Stop! Don't commit. If only just for now, if only just for this week, give yourself some space.

I know you want to rescue everybody, and you feel like that's your role, telling yourself: "Oh, I'm the helper, I'm the healer. I heal people, I help people. That's what I do."

Slow your roll. This week in particular, Source is resounding very strongly with this message, and don't commit.

Practice saying this: "I can't." or this one ... ready for it? "No."

Did you know that you're capable of still beaming love, healing, compassion, acceptance, support, kindness and generosity while saying no, and not committing.

Amazing, right? Who would've thought? 🙂

If only just for now, Source wants you to know that your time is valuable, just as much as those who are coming to you for your time, or for your advice, or for your hands as an extra set of hands in helping.

I don't know who I'm speaking to, but I feel like I'm speaking to someone very specific right now.

This is who you are. You're the helper, you're nurturer, you're the backbone, you're the go-to girl, the go-to guy.

This week you've got to flex that muscle of, "No." Or, "I can't." Or try saying, "Thank you. I'm going to take some time for myself instead."

Never say, "Thank you, but ..." everyone only hears the "but" so say "and".

Be kind to yourself if this is really shaking you to the core.

This week you've got to flex that "No" muscle. This happens when you say, "No, I would like to do this instead. Thank you, though."

Always be generous; always be loving.

Now the guides are saying, it's time for the oracle card of the week—in particular we're going to be using the, "Talking to Heaven" oracle cards deck that was donated to the dojo.

This is specifically about receiving guidance from our loved ones who have passed away, or ancestors who are on the other side, and hearing intuitive wisdom that they have and that they would like to share with us.

There are a lot of people out there who would love to send us a message or two.

Asking: What do you guys have to share with us around, "Don't commit"? Is there anything that you could offer?

"We are so connected." 

It's a beautiful quantum image there of bubbles within bubbles just going off into infinity in this card.

There's this inter-dimensional depiction of what being connected and what all our lives look like as plurality in the energy.

The guides are telling me to read this entry in particular to you. 

Now these readings are channeled by a medium, so it's as if the person on the other person is speaking:

"I've been able to review my life here in heaven and I've seen how perfectly everything we do is woven together. There are no accidents or wrong turns, everything makes sense now. I wanted to give you the exciting news that in my life review I saw that you and I have a strong soul connection through many lifetimes.

We've been each other's teachers, sometimes in unpleasant ways,  several times. In this lifetime we were magnetically drawn together because we had mutual work to do for ourselves personally and for others, and now that I'm here our connection remains strong, just like when I was living in my body, our thoughts are in sync with one another. We often think of each other simultaneously, so think of me and know that I'm doing the same always with love."

Grandma. Thank you.

Our loved ones on the other side want us to know that we are intimately, intimately connected no matter what.

Not even death could separate our bond.

On this scale then, be kind to yourself if you are afraid that disagreement or declining will sever ties.

Not even death can sever ties between you and those that Source has put you together with in this lifetime.

Give yourself permission to not commit.

The people that are there for you will respect your choice to say "no". They will respect your decision. Don't be afraid of severing ties or hurting anyone's feelings.

Here's a ninja trick: if you're afraid of hurting someone's feelings, just say so: "I want you to know I'm afraid I'm going to hurt your feelings, but I can't." Or, "Thank you for telling me this. I feel uncomfortable, but I have to be honest, I don't want to."

Be genuine, be open; it's all right.

This is a bit of a sticky situation.

It's tough for us who are highly sensitive intuitive individuals to really speak up and decline, right? It takes a bit of courage and some extra energy.

Send me an email back or a comment below to share what's coming up for you? What do you feel hearing this? Is this resonating?

Okay, make sure that you share this video for someone that you know who really needs to tone the over-commitment down, and subscribe on YouTube so that you get your love letters first every week.

By the way, this Saturday I will see you in New York City for the Love Tour, right? Saturday June 18th from 2 to 5pm, send me an email back at senseivictoriawhitfield@gmail.com if you'd like to join us, it's free.

Hopefully I'll see you there.

If not, see you next week here. Bye!

Know this: You can be generous and loving while declining someone's offer. Your time matters, too. @SenseiWhitfield

In Love and Light,
