										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2><iframe loading="lazy" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/KgVQborZ3Eo?rel=0" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" data-mce-fragment="1"></iframe></h2>
<h2><span style="color: #800080;"><em>Scared to stand out and take up space?<br />
</em></span></h2>
<h2>Shrinking yourself physically or emotionally to make others comfortable, or even for fear of being seen?</h2>
<h2>Do you tend to "keep your mouth shut" around others, rather than speaking your mind openly?</h2>
<p>Our bodies are mirrors of our emotional health and mindset.</p>
<p>So if you live with chronic tightness, aches and pains, that's actually a physical manifestation of limiting beliefs you have about yourself.</p>
<p><span style="color: #008080;"><strong>Watch this week's 11-minute love letter video, the final installment of our 5-week series on living life unapologetically, to release all restriction and boldly take up space in life and business!<br />
</strong></span></p>
<p><span id="more-4805"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;"><em><span style="color: #800080;"><b>"I don't trust myself to be able to get my point across."</b></span></em></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">So this is week five of five in our deep dive into living life unapologetically. Yeah. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1">This has been a powerful, powerful series of living fully, right? And embracing our brilliance, living as if, as we discussed last week, we're already worthy, right? </span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">There's nothing additional that needs to be done. We're worthy now. If you missed that, go back on YouTube, check it out. Watch that video.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong> This week, the spirit guides have said our topic is taking up space. Take up space. Do this with me. Spread your arms out. Open your chest. Breathe deep and exhale. Take up space, right?</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Are you someone, if you are blessed vertically, if you're tall, do you tend to hunch, or stand with a slouch so that you appear shorter? Are you someone who feels a bit insecure about speaking up, so instead, rather than waste people's time, or be annoying and take up space, you tend to hurry yourself. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>Do you hurry yourself when you're speaking, or not even express anything? In your home, by the way, is there no space for you, or is all your stuff crammed into the corner or shoved into a drawer? Are you afraid to really spread out so that you can be creative and expressive?</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Right? No, that's not for you. That's for the kids. You're not allowed, right?</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">If that's you, be kind to yourself. Just because other people take up space doesn't mean that you are not allowed to. There's enough space for all of us. That's a tweetable, as Marie Forleo would say. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">Know this, there's enough space for all of us. You are enough. The world is enough. There's enough time for all of us. Be kind to yourself.</span></strong></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="https://ctt.ec/y4gdf">‪Know this: There's enough space for all of us. Just because other people take up space, doesn't mean that you're not allowed to. Take up space, #unapologetically!</a></h2>
<h2 class="p1"><a href="https://ctt.ec/y4gdf"><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"> If you carry shame, right? Do you carry that shame around all ... You know, <em>"I have something to say, but you know, everybody has something to say, and I don't really trust myself to get my point across, so instead of being articulate, and expressing openly, I'll be quiet, and watch everyone else try and fail, but at least, you know, I didn't try, so I didn't fail."</em> I'm giving you a big hug if this is you. I know this is tough. Oh my goodness. Take up space.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> But this week in particular, the guides are showing images of you decompressing your body. Stretch. Go ahead. Stand up, like right now. Stand up. Get up, get up, and reach over your head, tickle the ceiling, wherever you are, tickle it and just radiate your light in all directions.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Allow your hips to roll open. Stretch your jaw, right? Your eyes, stretch your eyes. Yeah. Roll your shoulders. Roll them open. Do freestyle, whatever you need to do to open up any tightness in your body. Take up space.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Be kind to yourself. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>If you're afraid of taking up space in conversation, or even with your marketing, for example, to all my entrepreneurs and business owners, if you're uncomfortable being visible, and commanding attention, start with your body. Let's be clear. We're going to start internally. The healing starts with you.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">You don't have to worry about anybody else, but instead, open your body first. Decompress, right? I can't show you this on camera, but if you were to hang over your knees and let your head be pulled down by gravity, you could even decompress your spine. So important.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> So, it's essential for you, in living life unapologetically, to not be so compressed all the time. This is an apology for being in the same space as everyone else, and this is affirming that there's not enough space for you. Trust me, the universe is big enough to handle you. In all your imperfections and all your awesomeness, the universe is big enough.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Come out and play. Make it open, and even if it's a bit messy, whatever, right? Be kind to yourself. You don't have to do it perfectly. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong> So take up space, and stretch especially. Stretch open your body. Imagine, by the way, as you stretch your body, filling the space with your energy, as if you were shining light and radiating light into the entire room, into the entire building, out into the town, out into the state, around the country, and out into the world, right?</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Radiate that permission to take up space. Do it for your brothers and sisters who are in extreme poverty, right? Who are oppressed, and depressed, and repressed. Open your body on behalf of our tribe, on behalf of our tribe. Take up space. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1"> I'm hearing the Oracle Cards calling the energy this week, again is our last with the daily guidance from the Angels, another Oracle Cards deck, one of the many that have been donated here at the dojo, always accepting donations. Okay, Angels. What do we need to know right now, about taking up space? Cupid. Beautiful. Aw, there's so much love in this card, Cupid. Oh, the heart bubble. So sweet.</span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><em><span class="s1"> "We send great waves of love into your heart and mind, awakening your love for life itself. Your clear decision to accept and enjoy romance has triggered this awakening. Allow yourself to spontaneously celebrate love in all of its glorious aspects."</span></em></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong> So, my guides are telling me ... This Angel card has come forward in particular, for you to welcome love into your life. Yes, romantic love. Yes, physical love. Yes, emotional love. Yes, love. Opening up to receive more love in your life starts with you being open and decompressed, right? Take up space.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Give yourself permission to say, <em>"Hi. What's your name?"</em> To all of my single people out there, take up space, get yourself a ... like, you know, a seat at the coffee shop and type on your laptop conspicuously. Take up space, and if you are married, or with a partner, your lover, take up space with them. Like, <em>"I desire to be with you,"</em> or <em>"I'm going to be in your space because I love you,"</em> yeah? Take up emotional space. You can say what you need and you can express yourself. This is your permission. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> This week in particular, take up space. How are you going to do it, right? Are you just going to start with the physical stretching more, and making sure that your body physically is open and lubricated, or are you also going to take it the emotional and social level? Are you going to take up space in your relationships and interactions?</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Comment below on YouTube, on Facebook, send me an email back, right? I want to hear it. How are you taking up space. I love love and I love love letters, so send me a mail. Send me a love letter in the mail. I just got one. Yay! Thanks, Johanna. Hers is right there, that white piece of paper, pink writing. So beautiful. Thank you, goddess.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong> And, make sure you subscribe on YouTube so that you get these love letters first every week, all right? Live life unapologetically.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">We'll see you next time. Bye.</span></p>

<h2><span style="color: #800080;"><em>Are you uncomfortable receiving compliments?</em></span></h2>
<h2>Is it weird for you to ask for *and* to receive help from others?</h2>
<h2>Feeling out of place in your new position at work, like you don't deserve it?</h2>
<p>Being seen is always uncomfortable; that's why we tend to hide our gifts, rather than share them openly and often.</p>
<p>But positive discomfort can also be a sign of growth and good changes happening, if you know what to look for.</p>
<p><strong style="color: #008080;"><span style="color: #000000;">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!</span><br />
</strong></p>
<p><span id="more-5514"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;"><span style="color: #000000;"><em>"Sometimes I feel like I don't belong."</em></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">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. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">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. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">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. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #000000;"><strong><span class="s1">Evolutionary visibility is the true essence and power of being in positive community. </span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> 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. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">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. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">And with all of that support around you, you evolve into your full and highest self. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #000000;"> 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. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">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? </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">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." </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>That fraud and not enough-ness, our inner-achiever, comes out with a vengeance, especially when we're growing.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> 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. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #000000;"><span class="s1">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.</span></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> 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.</span></p>

<h2 class="p1"><a href="https://ctt.ec/0c9t6">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.</a></h2>
<h2 class="p1"><a href="https://ctt.ec/0c9t6"><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">Or even especially if you've been in the dark for so long. It hurts at first, but then you adjust. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">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. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">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. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #000000;"><strong><span class="s1"> 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. </span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #000000;"><span class="s1">I'm hearing the oracle cards calling in the energy. </span></span><span style="font-size: inherit;">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.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> 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. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">So the fairies are bringing forward a card that says, <em>"You have, within one degree of separation of you ... "</em> Moi, right here. <em>"You are directly connected to the opportunity of stepping into positive community and evolutionary visibility being in that community."</em> 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. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> 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. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #000000;">But what's your new opportunity that's coming through? What positive community are you going to commit to join? <a href="https://victoriawhitfield.com/join-goddess-visionary-shaman-circle-membership/">Is it my Visionary Shaman Circle? </a></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">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.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> 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. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">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. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">We'll see you there. Bye.</span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2><iframe loading="lazy" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/kFcMWYRneN0?rel=0" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" data-mce-fragment="1"></iframe></h2>
<h2><span style="color: #800080;"><em>Do you identify as a High-Achiever, or goal-oriented?</em></span></h2>
<h2>Are you always pushing yourself to get more things done and slaying your To-Do Lists?</h2>
<h2>And when things aren’t going as expected, do you feel frustrated or like you’re “not good enough”?</h2>
<p>They say that life is not about the destination: it’s about the Journey.</p>
<p>But this aphorism poses a problem when we are taught to value being an Achiever in life and business.</p>
<p><span style="color: #008080;"><strong>Watch this week’s 10-minute Love Letter video, the second of a 4-week series to Awaken your Shaman Within, and shift your focus from just doing more to being more!<br />
</strong></span></p>
<p><span id="more-5339"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;"><em><span style="color: #800080;"><b>"As soon as I complete a task, I feel like I have to jump to the next."</b></span></em></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">We are on week two of four exploring how to awaken your Shaman within in your business. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>As a business Reiki master, I help others balance the energy, ground and clear the energy of themselves and their businesses to free up flow of cash and clients, as well as a greater quality of life in the process.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Your regular Reiki master's just working on your physical body, your emotional health, but for me I specialize in entrepreneurs and sending healing energy to your business. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">This week in particular we're looking at the power of achieving versus journeying in business.</span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> I don't know if you've done your strengths finder yet but if you haven't taken that assessment, I highly recommend it. It's extremely insightful for celebrating your strengths as the leader of your teams, as the leader of your business. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> For me, one of my top five strengths is achiever. So, that means I'm really good at getting shift done. You and me both, aren't we the best at implementing and destroying the checklist and implementing systems. We get so much shift done.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">That's why are such high achieving entrepreneurs, business owners and leaders. But then, the bigger the front, the bigger the back, as they say in ancient Chinese medicine.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong> So, where we're high at achieving, if we're not achieving, it's not going as expected or if it's not having the breakthrough, then what happens to our identity in the process? The great thing about Shamanism is it takes the perspective of honoring the journey especially in the practice of Shamanic journeying.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">That whole experience of going through spaces and having sensory encounters with different people, different animals, different environments, all of that is significant. All of the entire journey, every step along the way is just as significant as the end. There is the old adage of it's not about the destination but it's actually life is about the journey that gets you there.</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="https://ctt.ec/Zq4ml">‪Know this:Achievers can get addicted to valuing quantity over quality of life and #business. Shift your #mindset to value quality first! 🙏</a></h2>
<h2 class="p1"><a href="https://ctt.ec/Zq4ml"><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"><strong><span class="s1"> So this week in particular, you want to be on the lookout for your achiever popping up and really deleting all of the amazing juice that got you to the achievement. How many brilliant leaders have so many things that they've accomplished, and they've barely acknowledged that they've accomplished them before they're off to the next thing.</span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> The flip side of that emotionally and, I don't know who I'm speaking to, but I could feel you watching through the camera right now, the flip side of that is that we end up feeling like we're never doing enough. We touched on that last week. We're never really feeling like we're fully connected or fully satisfied because we're on to the next, on to the next, on to the next.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> So this week in particular, the Guides are asking you to adopt the journey-centric mindset as opposed to the achievement-centric mindset. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>I know a lot of us tend to base our success off of the sense of how much can I get done, how many clients can I make, how many dollars can I win, how many connections can I make? If you're out networking, how many business cards can I grab, right?</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Life is the journey that brings you to those achievements, and the more you can appreciate what you have, the more good you will attract. That is the way the universe works. I'm hearing the Oracle Cards calling in the energy. Earth Magic, let me come in closer for this part. Earth Magic by Steven D. Farmer, one of over 20-something decks that we have here at the Dojo. Always receiving donations and thank you for those of you who have sent in your decks or sent gifts. I love gifts, thank you.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1"> Most of the stuff here has actually been gifts including this space, so thank you so much for all your support over the years. Guides, what do we need to know right now about having an achievement-centric mindset versus a journey-centric mindset?</span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Ooooh, this is so good. I'm getting a hot flash. You know I'm too young for that. Ocean, ebb and flow. Ebb and flow. This couldn't be better. I love it. I love it, I love it. Send me some love back if you just caught that energy wave. So good. What a brilliant way for us to leave off this week. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong> So, it's not to say that you will never achieve anything, and it's bad to be an achiever. No. I'm with you. That's one of my top five strengths. I have got to celebrate that and create a life that celebrates me being naturally wired to be a high-achieving individual and have a business that is high-achieving.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">But at the same time, fulfillment in life and having a state of balance and enjoyment has got to involve ebb and flow. There's ocean upon ocean upon ocean of abundance out there for you to absolutely go get it. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> There's no upper limit on pleasure and there's upper limit on wealth. You can have as much and you can create as much. There's no upper limit on creativity, as much as you desire, but it's important for you to find that balance between appreciating the journey and appreciating the achievement. That's your homework this week.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">How can you in your business, or if you don't have a business, at your corporation, at your workplace, how can you create a balance between appreciation for the achievements that you've done, the things that you've finished or have moved along, as well as appreciate. You know what? </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">That was a really great conversation. That meeting was really beautiful. I appreciate how far we've come even though we haven't finished yet. I appreciate how you show up.</span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> To all my leaders and managers, my executives out there, business owners, how are you appreciating the journey with your team? As well as, if you don't even have a team, within yourself? </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>Are you appreciating and present to all of the brilliance along the way?</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">With that in mind, we will see you next week. The universe agrees. We'll see you soon. Bye.</span></p>

<h2><span style="color: #800080;"><em>Are you a D.I.Y. junkie?</em></span></h2>
<h2>Do you love being independent and in control of everything?</h2>
<h2>Yet, are you frustrated that you can’t seem to attract or retain a good support team?</h2>
<p>Society endorses is being “strong, independent wo/men” constantly.</p>
<p>However there comes a point where D.I.Y. starts to feel exhausting and small.</p>
<p><strong style="color: #008080;">Watch this week’s 11-minute Love Letter video, the second in our 5-week series on From Me to We, to free yourself from the “DIY Trap”!</strong></p>
<p><span id="more-5530"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;"><em><span style="color: #800080;"><b>"I'd rather just do it myself."</b></span></em></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Last week, we introduced this concept and we talked about how now more than ever you are being called to exponential growth. This week in particular, we're going to talk about the DIY trap. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1">The DIY trap is do it yourself, for those of you who are not exactly sure like <em>"What do you mean by DIY?"</em> It's do it yourself. Where you get the program for example that's discounted because it's the DIY version. Or, you're going to start your business and you're going to do it yourself. </span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Or you're being a strong, independent insert thing here, deja vu, no? Being a strong, independent woman. Strong, independent man. You're going to do it yourself.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong> This is an ego trap that Guides want you to know this week in particular, it's time for you to get off that hamster wheel of DIY. There's an even higher vibration, one that works even better, and it's even more satisfying than DIY. We'll get to that in a minute, but let's clarify a little bit more of what's going on when we're pulled into doing another do it yourself project professionally especially.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Maybe you have to type that email, or maybe you have to do the phone call. There's the impatient controller that comes out of all of us. I know you, I know you. If you have achiever, A for achiever, in your StrengthsFinder like I do, I'm relator, empathy, strategic, achiever, adaptability for those of you taking the StrengthsFinder test.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> If you have achiever in your strengths, you're wired for being the controller. You got to go and achieve and implement and achieve with love. This is how we generate safety in a world that has shown herself to be a very scary place. I'm talking going all the way back to say childhood, adolescence, where a negative experience caused you to have a loss of control, or to feel, or perceive loss of control.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">It's very painful to go through those experiences, I understand that. In order to bring order back into a chaotic world that seem to be spinning out of control, maybe you had an angry parent, maybe you had an alcoholic, maybe someone attacked you, maybe all of the above. Other things, someone died, someone appeared ... be kind to yourself.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong> If you took control, you did it yourself in order to create a sense of control and certainty in life. This week in particular, this day in particular The Guides are calling you to a higher vibration because your next level imminent if you would just change your mindset from DIY to DIT, write this down.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">No more DIY, from now on it's DIT, do it together. Do it together. If it's the email, if it's the phone call, if it's the sales visit, if it's the interview, if it's the dating, et cetera. Two heads are better than one, especially when they're on good, strong shoulders, not just any head, you know what I'm saying? Two strong, grounded, well-rounded, sensitive, spiritual heads are better than just one.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1"> DIY may make you feel nice, and small, and in control, and everything certain, you know what to expect, but do you see how compressed I look? This is not a relaxed posture. When we go into DIT, doing it together, opening up to receiving input, support, and allowing for communal, cooperative manifestation, we have to open in order to receive that type of energy. Because of that expansiveness, we are able to move and receive more energy, more money, more clients, more love than ever before.</span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Think of it this way. God gave you two hands, or mother gave you two hands when you popped out of her womb. If you are seeing visions of receiving things that are larger than your two hands can hold, how is that going to happen? You're going to need more than just your own two hands to bring it in. That's where you're feeling like you're hitting that glass ceiling in life, that's why it's time to shift from DIY to DIT.</span></p>

<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">I'm hearing the oracle cards calling in the energy, so let me come a little closer. It's the Life Purpose Oracle Cards deck by Doreen Virtue. One of many Oracle Cards decks that we have here at The Dojo, always open to receiving donations.</span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Angels, let's hear it. What do we need to know right now about shifting our mindset from me to we and from DIY to DIT? What's coming up here? </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>Books. You connect to your life purpose through your involvement with books. This is interesting. There are a lot of do it yourself books out there, how to, advice guides. I love the idiot's guides because I don't care if you know how tell me how to do it, I'm interested.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">My guides are bringing me to being part of a book. Not just writing your own book, I wrote my book, Natural Intuition Now, it's on Amazon. The way that I wrote it was actually by channeling. Channeling is a bit of a DIY, DIT kind of spliced interaction, where the wisdom was just flowing through me.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong> But, also my guides are bringing being part of a group that is writing a book. I want you, this week in particular, if you've been called to write, or you have a story to tell, go and seek out who else is talking about it, and see how you can get involved.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Also, this is for those of you, if you have that pile of books on your nightstand that you're not reading, it's because you've been DIY'ing that. </span><span class="s1">Let's try DIT'ing your approach to reading these visionary books that you've accrued creating a book reading group, being the leader of it, yes, you. Not waiting for anyone else. Going to see who else would be interested in reading this book with you. That's what I do, by the way, on my Facebook page is I want to re-read Ask and It Is Given, so I'm doing it together with all the 1500 something people that are on Facebook with me. That way we're all going higher.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> Go ahead and comment below, send me an email back what comes up for you around DIY to DIT transition this week.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Remember, if you could think of any way that I could help you in balancing your mind, body and business, just let me know over at victoriawhitfield.com/contact. I'll see you there. See you next week.</span></p>

<h2><span style="color: #800080;"><em>Wondering why you’re feeling blocked and stagnant?</em></span></h2>
<h2>Wishing you could manifest more abundance of health, wealth and love?</h2>
<h2>Spending  most of your work days feeling frustrated, anxious and even bored to death?</h2>
<p>Sounds like you have got a Pleasure Emergency!</p>
<p>And the less pleasure you have, the less energy you have - not just physical energy, but also creative energy, too.</p>
<p><span style="color: #008080;"><strong>Watch this week’s 11-minute Love Letter video, the final of our 4-Part series on Your Daily PRP’s, to reconnect to pleasure and putting it as a top priority in your daily life.<br />
</strong></span></p>
<p><span id="more-5256"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;"><em><span style="color: #800080;"><b>"I eat the same thing for dinner every night."</b></span></em></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">We have made it to week four of four in our series on your daily PRPs. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>These three essential nutrients to having you full of energy and stamina as you pursue your passion and purpose in life. A lot of people are missing out on their PRP nutrients and you are not going to be one of those after this series.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> How's it been going thus far? By the way, if you're listening to me say this, you're like,<em> "What the heck is a PRP, I don't understand."</em> Stop this video, go back to week one, right? Go on YouTube, go back to week one where we define all of the terms, and set the stage for why this is important. Go check that out. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>Without further ado, this week in particular, we're going to introduce you to the third and final letter in that acronym of PRP. P stands for pleasure. This is your pleasure week.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">In particular, the guides want you to understand that your pleasure is abundance. It's not just you enjoying things, or being selfish, or anything like, but no, no, no, no, let's talk about this on a whole nother spiritual energetic level. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> Valuing your pleasure, let's talk about it. When we're adulting, when we're adulting, right? We learn that our productivity is way more important than play, right? Being productive, and having high output, and being effective, and responsible, all of that.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">You know, we've talked about that before in a previous week about play. We prioritize it higher than our play, and also higher than our pleasure, and higher than our rest. Be kind to yourself if that's what comes to you. Where you're moving from day to day and each day is gray, predictable, monotonous, the rat race, boring. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>You spend your time on Facebook, or on your phone, because you're bored, right? Playing Candy Crush because you're bored, right? There's this lack of enjoyment, and the juice, to life.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Be kind to yourself if that's where you're at. This series is for you and this week especially is for shifting that. Especially so that you can value your pleasure. Not just in a Candy Crush pleasure sort of way, but no, let's get specific. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>I'm talking about your sensual pleasure. Now notice I said sensual and I did not say sexual, per se. Not knocking sexual pleasure, a essential, that's essential, right?</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">That's another nutrient, I would say it's a whole nother can of worms that is outside of the bounds of what we're talking about this video in particular, this week in particular.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong> I'm talking about sensual, as in your Aristotelian senses, sight, sound, taste, touch, and smell. Your sensual enjoyment is powerful because it grounds you. Emotionally and mentally enjoying sight, sound, taste, touch, and smell, throughout the day and really being present to that pleasurable smell, that pleasurable taste, that pleasurable texture, that pleasurable piece of art to look at.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Really enjoying those pleasurable sounds of running water, or birds chirping, or soft music, or jazz, or whatever you vibe with, right? The pleasurable sound even of the way that you talk, speech is a form of self massage, internal self sonic massage, by the way. Your pleasure is essential because it grounds you, first and foremost, into the present moment. Let's take this even farther. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> Your pleasure, your sensual, your five sensual pleasure, grounds abundance for you in this present moment, right? Because the only reason why we're looking to manifest more abundance is because we want to feel good, abundance of any kind. It may be abundance of lovers, abundance of affection, abundance of money, abundance of time, whatever.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Whatever your version of abundance is, you're looking to feel good the having of it as Abraham Hicks says. In order for us to get into the vortex, or get into the flow, and get into alignment with that which we are manifesting, or receiving, and asking from source energy, from our creative spirit, the fastest way to do that is actually through your five senses. The enjoyment of the here and now. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong> If that is true, then your pleasure equals abundance. Abundance now, not later, but abundance here and now. The more abundant you can feel and be, the faster you will manifest the abundance that you have been visualizing.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Some examples of enjoying increased amounts of pleasure, sensual pleasure, throughout the day, so that you are energized and really relaxed, so that you have stamina to pursue your passion and purpose. It could be that you don't eat chicken and rice, chicken and rice every single night, chicken and rice. Chicken and ... Maybe you switch it up a little bit. Increase your sensual pleasure of the food that you are feeding yourself, with variety, or spice, whatever.</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="https://ctt.ec/ev46r">‪</a><a href="https://ctt.ec/b7OeP">Know this: Your sensual enjoyment and pleasure is essential because it grounds you.</a></h2>
<h2 class="p1"><a href="https://ctt.ec/b7OeP"><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> Perhaps it is in the clothes that you adorn yourself with, whether you are male or female, there's another level of energy that you carry yourself with, guys, when you wear a well tailored shirt that looks clean, you know what I mean. Like clean, you are looking good bro, right?</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">The way that you feel, that confidence, and strength, and brilliant beauty that radiates out of you when you're feeling put together. It is a whole nother level of energy that you're radiating and greeting the world with, because you feel a sense of pleasure and enjoyment in the wearing of that shirt. Ladies, I don't have to talk to you about shoes, dress, whatever. Whatever brings you pleasure. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong> Valuing your five sensual pleasure in the way that you conduct meetings at work. What beautiful art is in the room? Are there good smells? Did you wear something that you're enjoying? A scent, that you are enjoying. Not too strong, to respect other people's noses, or are there beautiful flowers? Is there a texture for you to enjoy?</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">How can you integrate five sensual pleasure into your work life, on to your desk, where you work, on a daily basis? That's your assignment for this week. That's the homework. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> I'm hearing the oracle cards calling in the energy. Romance angels, Dorian Virtue Angel Cards deck, final pull for the month. Angels what do we need to know right now about valuing our pleasure as the way to manifest abundance now? Wow, this card has come back, and it's so essential though for what we're going through this month.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Religious Factors, your love life is influenced by your religious upbringing and spiritual path. It's a similar lesson from the last time this card came up earlier in this series. You may have come up in a belief system that told you that your pleasure is bad, right? </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>Now, be ethically sound in the way that you engage your pleasure. Not trying to push yourself on others. No, no, no, this is more about how you feel, and how you conduct yourself.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">At the same time, there's this aspect of denial, being holy, or better, than others, that you can bear the pain better than other people. You can bear the monotony better than other people. Yeah, you're so tough, but that's exhausting energetically is the point that we want to make. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> Be kind to yourself. If you've subscribed to the belief, it's become religious of you to say, <em>"Well I'm going to live a bare life, or I'm going to bear it. I can take it. I can take it."</em> Be kind to yourself. You don't have to. Try it this week. Just try out valuing and prioritizing your five sensual pleasure so that you can live abundantly now, and attract more abundance in the process.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Comment below, tell me what's coming up for you around this. What religious factors are coming up for you in relationship to pleasure and abundance. Make sure you subscribe on YouTube so that you get this love letters first every week. I will see you next time. Bye. </span></p>

<h2><span style="color: #800080;"><em>Do you work hard and play hard?</em></span></h2>
<h2>And when you do, do you tend to overdo both?</h2>
<h2>Feeling annoyed that you work hard all the time and find yourself having less and less fun in life?</h2>
<p>It seems that the minute we become adults that play loses its status as top-priority in day-to-day life.</p>
<p>We are told that play is silly, irresponsible and a waste of time, and somehow we believe it.</p>
<p><span style="color: #008080;"><strong>Watch this week’s 10-minute Love Letter video, the second in our 4-week series on your daily PRP’s, to shift your mindset to be play-positive and bring back the joy and fun in your life!<br />
</strong></span></p>
<p><span id="more-5142"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;"><em><span style="color: #800080;"><b>"I've lost my sense of adventure."</b></span></em></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">This is week two of four of our deep dive into PRPs, your daily PRPs. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>Last week we defined exactly what is a PRP and why do you need it. We always start with why. If you have no idea what happened, stop now and go back. Go back and watch the previous video.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">You can find it on YouTube or on my blog. The link should be somewhere, wherever you clicked. With that being said, this week let's talk about the first of that acronym, PRP. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong> So the first word in that is play. What the guides want you to know this week is that you've got to shift your mindset around play. It's time for you to shift your mindset around play. Often we are taught to work hard, play hard, work hard, play hard, work hard, play hard. Right?</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">That's even a chant sometimes, or even in a Nike video, or something like that, some other marketing, work hard, play hard. It's seen as strong and outgoing and fitnessy to work hard and play hard. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> What does that end up looking like in our lives? So we're working, playing, working, playing, working, playing.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Where we're going, going, going in one direction, and then going, going, going in another. So that, in both directions, whether we're working or we're playing, we're going hard and we're over doing it. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> That is not natural, first and foremost, you gotta hear this. And also that is not compassionate. Lastly, it's not sustainable. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>So, it's time for you to shift your mindset around how you play, instead of working hard and playing hard, this week in particular, and forever more going forward, let's commit to working smart and playing smart. You may have heard before, <em>"Don't work hard, work smart."</em> But, have you also heard, <em>"Don't play hard, play smart,"</em> right?</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> The two go together. In nature you never see a plant or an animal or any type of weather pattern, et cetera producing everything it could possibly do, and then dive. Right? Or completely crashing and burning. There is balance.</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="https://ctt.ec/WdU9O" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">‪Know this: ‪‪“Work hard, play hard” is not natural, compassionate or sustainable. Shift your #mindset to work smart AND play smart, every day.</a></h2>
<h2 class="p1"><a href="https://ctt.ec/WdU9O" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><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>Think of ocean waves, there is a constant ebb and flow, and because of that there is perpetual motion of the waves washing on the shore. There are seasons, cycles of energy, cycles of temperature, and weather, et cetera that allows for life to perpetuate. There are life cycles where it's a constant.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Your breath is going in and going out, if you only exhaled, what happens? That's what happens. Right? </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>That is not natural. And that is not compassionate, and that is not sustainable. So we want you to shift your mindset around how you play. So, working smart, you're a smart cookie, I'm sure you're already working smarter.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Right? You've got life hacks going, you may have hired people or are in the process of looking for people to help you out with texts.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1"> You've got your kids, they cook and they wash clothes. You're working smart, great. Let's turn it up another notch and get you playing smart. So what would that look like? This is a two way conversation, I'm not just teaching at you. Right? This is for your inspiration. Some examples, and I want you to post below, how do you play smart?</span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> For this week in particular, I would highly recommend that you intersperse play throughout your day. How can you make your morning and evening commute more playful? How can you add more playful elements to your work space, or even to your meetings? </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">How can you add more playful elements to your home life and your personal spaces, or your interactions with your friends? How can you bring play in?</span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> For some people that's enjoying toys. Just bringing in something silly, like a slinky and leaving it on your desk at work for people to play with while their talking to you. Right? Or it could be a funny game that you play with your family. It could be enjoying exercise and movement in the middle of the day. Have recess when you go for lunch. Right? Or, listening to comedy as you drive to and from work. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> Here's the thing. Remember what we said the first week, reason why we're doing this is so that you have stamina for the marathon of life, stamina for the marathon of pursuing and living your passion and purpose. So, the more play that you integrate throughout the day, the lower your crankiness and resentfulness about going and doing your day to day work will be, because you're having fun.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> That's your challenge for this week. How can you integrate more play? I don't care how old you are or how crusty, crunchy, crotchety, crumply, you are, all the crunchy sounds. I don't care, figure it out. You deserve to play and enjoy every day, rather than once in a blue moon, have some fun. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">Know every single day there can be play. How can you integrate more playfulness into your wardrobe, into your marketing materials? To all my entrepreneurs. How can you integrate more playfulness into your day to day life as an essential vitamin, an essential mineral in your daily diet?</span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> The oracle cards for the week? The romance angels oracle cards deck. Angels, what do we need to know right now about playing? Positive playfulness. Playing smart. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Oh la la. Oh la la. Passion. Something's throbbing, oh my. </span><span class="s1">Allow your heart and soul to sing with joy. Passion, this is where we're going to leave off for the week. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>If your relationship with yourself, yourself first, has lost the fire and the flame and the sparkle, the sense of fun and adventure that you used to have, that creative inspiration or sparkle, if you lost your passion or your mojo, or your juice, however you say it, if you've lost your passion, here's how you start. Here's how you start. Allow your heart and soul to sing with joy. Allow yourself to insert more joy into your day to day.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> How are you going to do it? Comment below. Send me an email back. Make sure you subscribe on YouTube so that you get these love letters first, every week. I'm so excited to see how you play. All right we'll see you next week. Bye.</span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><iframe loading="lazy" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/5eBHxFGZSMs?rel=0" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"><span data-mce-type="bookmark" style="display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;" class="mce_SELRES_start">﻿</span></iframe></p>
<h2><strong>The topic that my guides have asked me to cover this time in particular is: losing faith. What to do when you feel like you are losing faith. </strong></h2>
<p>Now, I want to be clear, I am not a business coach, I'm not a marketing guru, I'm not your run-of-the-mill reiki master, and I'm not even a massage therapist or any of that. I'm not any of those things. I'm a Business Reiki Master. So what does that mean? That means I help empathic entrepreneurs and their teams, burnt out business owners, uncertain CEO’s, C-Level executives and their teams to get and stay balanced and clear in mind, body and business. So, although I am not the person who's going to tell you how to write a business plan or how to get your first client, I *am* the person that's going to support you with the energy *behind* doing those tasks - making sure that your vibration, emotion, and your energy is balanced and managed well. That's when these people call me in, specifically during times of transition, when they're losing faith.</p>
<p><strong>In the coming posts we're going to be talking more about the experience of losing faith in yourself, losing faith in your business or the economy, and losing faith in your mission and purpose on Earth, and we will be covering what to do in each and every situation.</strong>So, if you haven't yet, make sure that you subscribe on YouTube so that you get these Love Letters first every single week, and also make sure that you take my quiz so that you have an opportunity to self-assess around where are you at, so you can jumpstart your unique healing journey.</p>
<p>Without further ado, let's get a little bit more into this. Why are we talking about losing faith in particular? Here’s why: my guides have magnetized to me so many people who are brilliant experts who are talented, generous, loving givers, givers, givers. We’ve been taught that “givers gain.” If you know what I'm talking about send me an email back, comment below wherever you're seeing this, type it in, givers gain, if that's something that you live by.</p>
<p><strong>But here's the thing: eventually, if you are not giving <em>and</em>receiving - or if you're not receiving <em>as</em>you give - you will dry out.</strong>Think of it this way - think of yourself as an oil lamp. If you've ever seen an oil lamp, it's this beautiful glass receptacle which has a cotton wick that runs through it, and it's bound at the top so that the wick doesn't fall in, and that receptacle is full of oil, an incendiary flammable substance, but when it's wicked up, or absorbed up the wick, it then becomes fuel for our burning fire. If you light that wick the fire will continue to burn in the oil lamp for as long as there is oil in there.</p>
<p>So for us as empathic entrepreneurs, as spiritual business owners and conscious CEOs, we're giving, giving, giving. We want to take excellent care of our people. Being in charge means taking care of the people who are in our charge. You know this already. And what can happen along the way is that you give to the point where your oil lamp, so-to-speak, is running out, and your light begins to dim.</p>
<p><strong>My guides are asking me to urge you, this week in particular, to ask yourself: “where is my light dimming? Where have I begun to lose faith?” </strong></p>
<p>Are you losing faith in yourself? Are you losing faith in your business or the economy, or your ability to receive and pay out money? Or are you losing faith in your mission, your purpose here on Earth? Those symptoms usually are accompanied by feelings of exhaustion, crankiness, resentment, smiling but behind your smile there's like a sense of “I can't stand this anymore, I don't know how much more I can take,” or feelings of avoidance, procrastination.<br />
<span style="color: #ffffff;">--</span></p>
<h2><strong>Click to share the Tweet of the Week: <a href="https://ctt.ac/91a33">Know this: Don't forget to refill your oil lamp so that you can continue to shine your light! @SenseiWhitfield #womeninbusiness #worklifebalance #entrepreneur</a></strong></h2>
<p><span style="color: #ffffff;">--</span><br />
Are you loving <em>The Love Letters</em>? If so, please support our healing work with a love donation:<br />
<a href="https://www.paypal.me/victoriawhitfield"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-6037 size-full" src="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/button_leave-a-love-donation.png" alt="" width="295" height="40" /></a><br />
<span style="color: #ffffff;">--</span></p>
<p><strong>Be kind to yourself if this is what you are going through, this month in particular.</strong>I don't know when you'll be watching or reading this. Maybe you're watching and reading it when we first debut these love letters, maybe you'll happen upon this in YouTube or wherever, or someone shared it with you because they love you, but regardless of the time of year you've landed on this video series please know that it's time for you to refill your oil lamp, it's time for you to feed your faith.</p>
<p>We want to honor you wherever you're at if you happen to be losing faith. No judgement here; all love. Perhaps you're watching and reading this because someone that you know and love, or who you work with that who you care about and have seen as a powerhouse before - they've been amazing, but their light is starting to dim. If that’s the case, lets begin to send some healing to them, ok? Let's surround you and your loved ones, your dear coworkers and colleagues in healing white light and positivity, this week, this day in particular.</p>
<p><strong>And without further ado let's get to the oracle cards of the week from <em>Healing with the Angels</em>, the very first oracle deck that Doreen Virtue ever made.</strong>Okay, Angels, what do we need to know right now about this topic of losing faith? Is it okay? What do we need to know in order to begin to restore it? “<em>Nature</em>.” Gorgeous. I'm going to read to you:</p>
<p><em>“Spending time alone in nature is important for you, even five minutes in a garden would be healing for you right now. By drawing this card the angels ask you to interact with nature more often, every day if possible. This card also signifies that you may be happier living in a more rural setting. If you have thought about moving away from city life consider this card as additional validation. Also, this card may be encouraging you to choose an occupation involving plants or animals. For instance, you may enjoy gardening, nursery or veterinary work, pet sitting, or delving into the world of animal communication. Your angels and the nature elements are helping you discover and give your gifts to the world. Help them to help you by spending more time in nature.”</em></p>
<p><strong>And here's where we're going to leave off for this week. As we enter into this more vulnerable topic of losing faith, one way that you can begin to rebuild already before we start talking about more specific ways, is by reconnecting to nature.</strong>Reconnecting to nature. Nature is so healing, right? Maybe you lost a loved one, or maybe a major client fell through. But one simple way that you can begin to restore your faith in yourself, in life, or in business is to step back and appreciate nature. The beautiful thing about plants is that they continue growing. And how animals, they have this beautiful wonder and awe for life, they have this essential beauty and innocence to them. Mountainsides, forests, the beach and the water are all so healing - connect to the beauty of nature and allow it to begin to replenish and refill your soul.</p>
<p>So if this topic is on time for you, if it's speaking to you, make sure that you comment below, send me an email back at Info@VictoriaWhitfield.com and subscribe on YouTube so that you get these Love Letters first every single week.</p>
<p><strong>And by the way, if this is really resonating and you're thinking of someone in particular, will you please send them this video?</strong>Let them know that they're not alone. And if you are new to the Love Letters because you received this and someone shared it for you, I want you to know you're not alone in what you’re going through. Faith can be restored. Connect to nature this week, go for a walk, soak it up, be gentle with yourself, and I'll see you next week so that we can continue this conversation. Mwah! Sending you so much love.</p>
<p><span style="color: #ffffff;">--</span></p>
<h2><strong>Just for today...</strong></h2>
<h3>Be kind to yourself and notice where the inner light of your faith and drive may be dimming.</h3>
<h3>Instead of avoiding or glazing over the truth, pause for a moment and acknowledge where you feel drained or dismayed.</h3>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2><iframe loading="lazy" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/QeI-eGi4mYY?rel=0" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" data-mce-fragment="1"></iframe></h2>
<h2><span style="color: #800080;"><em>Do you feel like you're called to support others?<br />
</em></span></h2>
<h2><em>Are you a leader or manager in your home or your organization?<br />
</em></h2>
<h2><em>Wish you had the energy to serve more people?<br />
</em></h2>
<p>This month, we're going to talk about exactly what resource can fuel you for the long-haul continuing to show up in service.</p>
<p>That resource, that essential nutrient is: loving yourself.</p>
<p><span style="color: #008080;"><strong>Watch this week's 12-minute Love Letter video to find out exactly WHY loving yourself is the key to truly loving others.<br />
</strong></span></p>
<p><span id="more-4333"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;"><em><span style="color: #800080;"><b>"I'm always the one giving advice."</b></span></em></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">This month I'm so excited to get to share with you the next deep dive topic that we're going to be going through over the next four weeks together. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">As you know, my guides have said that it's time that you and I continue to have a deeper relationship and probe deeper into the perks of life together so that we can have more intimate bond and better understand each other as well as ourselves, so that we can lift up our communities and our clients together in the process.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> So this month's deep dive topic is loving yourself.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Loving yourself. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>Now, I'm sure that you've heard about loving yourself from so many people and different teachers, different books, that you may have gone through.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">But loving yourself is a powerful, powerful, powerful nutrient that fuels the greatest healers and leaders, period. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>If you are called to serve others, right, to take care of others, to make sure that they're okay and support the community, support your clients, support your family, that means that you are a leader and that you are a healer.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> And you know what it's like to love others. You're used to it. You're really accustomed to being that loving presence, that supportive presence to others and that's beautiful. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Also it can get draining. It can get so draining when you're always being the strong one. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>You're the one giving the advice, the support, dishing out the transformation, the information, the coordination, all the things, you being the anchor.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">What happens sometimes is that in the course of being service-oriented, right? We show up to serve. We show up to give. It's so generous. It's so powerful. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> What happens sometimes is that we forget that we need. The one who is serving and supporting the tribe, whatever your tribe looks like, don't forget we also need to fill our cup.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">So we're going to take the next four weeks to cover exactly how to begin loving yourself. Now more than ever my guides say you've got to hear this message and the people that you support need you to love yourself. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">If you know me very well. You know that my number one muse and mentor is RuPaul, the drag queen. RuPaul, I love him, I love him from the bottom of my heart. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">He taught me how to love myself and his phrase, his mantra is, <em>"If you can't love yourself, how in the hell are you going to love anybody else?"</em> </span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Can I get an amen? Everyone's like, Amen, yes. Yeah, I love RuPaul. I love you, I love you, I love you. If you ever see this, thank you. You've changed my life.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> With that, every single healer and every single leader has got to have a regular practice of self-love and taking care of yourself. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">As is the custom here at the Dojo, we start with why so we're going to go through different, exactly how processes. You know that I dish out homework. Here just for today is what you're going to do. That's who I am. I'm a teacher at heart. That's what we do, right? </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> With that, we want to make sure that you start with why so that you understand exactly what's the fuel behind loving yourself because if you don't understand what's the fuel, what's the inspiration, what's the motivation behind loving yourself, you're not going to do it.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">You're not. It's just going to go to the bottom or not even catch the task list. It's not even going to be on the back burner. It's just going to get thrown out the window or in the trash can, your self-love, your self-care.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong> Now I believe in starting with why and those of you who are watching who love Simon Sinek, I'm sure you're feeling me.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">The reason why it's time for you to love yourself is because you're a healer and because you're a leader, because you're the caregiver. The reason why you're going to love yourself and learn how to do it on a whole new level this month in particular is because you're called to support others. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> The vision that the guides send to illustrate this why is that you're here quenching others' thirst. There are people who are thirsty for what you have got.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Maybe you have incredible advice. Maybe you're a fantastic cook. Maybe you're a beautiful and profound listener. Perhaps no one delegates and coordinates better than you. You're the best person to organize people, right? You're a people person.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong> Or perhaps you're a Mom or a Dad, and you're the one taking care of your kids. You've got to lead them and love them and teach them so that they can grow and feel safe as wholly grounded and well-rounded human beings.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">So as you are called to be the leader, to show up to give, you're quenching these people's thirst with the energy that you are giving constantly, constantly quenching your thirst.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1"> How much water do you drink each day? There's so much body that our bodies need. We're above 70% made of water. If you're the one quenching the thirst, how do you do that? How do you get water?</span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Let's do it on a mundane level before we take it to the illustration level. How do you get water to bring it to someone? You get a cup, you know, you get a cup, you go over to a faucet of some sort and you bring the cup to them and say, <em>"Here"</em> or you help them.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong> So, you see what happened right there? You had a cup, brought it over to the faucet or you had a pitcher and brought it over to the faucet, some sort of source of water, and then you went to offer them the cup or to pour them a drink.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">This is the illustration behind why it's time for you to love yourself, the guides are sending to you. It's very simple. We don't do things complex here. The simpler, the better and the faster you can implement, the more you can integrate it.</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/dH80t"><strong><span class="s1">Know this: The people that you support need you to love yourself.</span></strong></a></h2>
<h2 class="p1"><a href="http://ctt.ec/dH80t"><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"> The self-love comes in having the faucet. If you were to pour someone a cup of water, you wouldn't take your boob and squirt them out like, oh my God, or you wouldn't try and cry into a cup so that they could drink your tears or any other of your fluids or blah. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>Unless you're a Mom, you're giving your breast milk to your baby, but typically you don't offer of yourself in order to quench others' thirst. You go to the water source, right?</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> This is the illustration of what loving yourself is so that you can continue to show up in service. Fill your cup first, fill your pitcher first before you go out and serve others. By the way, once you have your water source, you can serve people more of the time. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">You can serve more people more of the time in a sustainable ongoing way. This is why its time for you to learn how to love yourself and find your love resource so that you can continue to fill up and bring more, and fill up and bring more. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">So that you're pouring from abundance rather than from lack.</span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Now, I'm hearing the Oracle Cards calling for the week. It is The Goddess Guidance Oracle Cards, my favoritest, favorite deck. Thank you, Doreen Virtue for making this. And thank you to Success Express that originally Bonnie and Susan, they originally donated it. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1">Goddesses, what do we need to know right now about loving ourselves? Why? Show us why.</span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Oh, this is so good. Damara, guiding children. You are good at helping, counseling and healing children. Use your skills to help children now. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>So my guides are taking me, so on one level, yes, we're talking to those of you who are parents and teachers.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Loving yourself, you need the strength to be able to hold space for the children that you are taking care of, that demand an extremely high amount of your energy, your investment, your time, your love. And you want to be there for the kids, and take excellent care of them.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> But on another level my guides are taking me to those who are entrepreneurs, leaders and managers, where you are guiding the inner child or those who are under your care.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">You are good at helping, counseling and healing others, and you want to care for those who are in your charge at the same level that a loving parent would take care of their children. </span><span class="s1">Your employees are your children. Your clients are your children. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>You want to protect them and love on them at the same level that you would for your children but in order to do that, in order to get the strength that you need, you've got to have that source of energy.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">This month, we're going to show you exactly how to get that.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> So go ahead and comment below. Send me an email back. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>What's coming up for you seeing this card and this topic? Do you feel that this topic is timely?</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Make sure that you subscribe on YouTube so that you get your love letters first every week and we'll see you next time. Bye. See you soon.</span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2><iframe loading="lazy" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/0wxwe4r8k2U?rel=0" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" data-mce-fragment="1"></iframe></h2>
<h2><span style="color: #800080;"><em>Do you notice that heavy, negative news reports are killing your mood more often?</em></span></h2>
<h2><em>Annoyed, yet sucked in by all the stories and updates in your Facebook feed?</em></h2>
<h2><em>Struggling to deal with the constant barrage of emails, texts and push notifications on your phone?</em></h2>
<p>It has been said that "you are what you eat" – our bodies reflect our nutritional diet.</p>
<p>And the same goes for our mindset; what goes into your mind affects how you feel.</p>
<p><span style="color: #008080;"><strong>Watch this week's 10-minute Love Letter video to get started on your information diet and detox your mind!</strong></span></p>
<p><span id="more-3730"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;"><em><span style="color: #800080;"><b>"What am I putting into my head?"</b></span></em></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>This week, Source is saying that you need to go on a diet. Not a food diet, no; but actually an information diet. Let me explain.</strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Maybe recently, have you noticed that there's more and more reports about negative news? Maybe you've been hearing more drama stories at work, or with your friends, or maybe; have you been reading a book that's like really emotional and dramatic and intense.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">At the same time, have you noticed that you've been feeling a little bit more anxious, frustrated, annoyed, sad, or even depressed? Maybe even restless or really angry recently.</span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">The two are related.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>This is what the Guides want you to know this week, is that the information that you take into you, affects you, the same way that if you eat a certain diet, that let's say, is not in alignment with your best health.</strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Whatever that means for you; your feelings, your physical feelings in your body, such as in your joints or in your belly, or in your chest, or in your sinus, will be affected. Your body lets you know that what you put into her, has an affect on her.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">In a dramatic sense, if you drink something that you shouldn't have, or if you eat some bad food, she'll let you know by bringing it back up and out, all right, because that's what your body does to respect yourself; or chemo receptive sense, pushes the bad chemicals or the negative energy out of her when we're at above the level of tolerance.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>The same happens with your mind.</strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">This weekend particular, you need to watch,<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span><em>"What am I putting into my head?"</em></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Do you notice maybe in your Facebook or Twitter feed there's all these really annoying people, or really heavy news reports, or maybe you've been watching a certain TV or movie series, that really is just violent or intense?</span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1">If you've been putting information into you that is of a lower vibration, it has an effect on your mind set and on your emotions.</span></strong></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"><strong><span class="s1">Know this: <a href="http://ctt.ec/hbnc0">Negative news doesn't produce a positive mindset. It's time for an information diet. #freeyourself @SenseiWhitfield</a></span></strong></h2>
<h2 class="p1"><a href="http://ctt.ec/hbnc0"><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" style="color: #000000;">So this week in particular, just become mindful of what you're putting in. Go on an information diet.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>As we're speaking right now, the energy is saying you know exactly what to watch out for.</strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">You know exactly which information channels; maybe it's the news, maybe it's the Facebook feed, maybe it's the Twitter feed, maybe it's that's website that you always go to look up stuff, or maybe it's that one person who you always ask, <em>"What's going on with so-and-so?"</em></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Be kind to yourself this week in particular by watching your information diet; that's the way you're going to be kind to yourself this week in particular, and I'm hearing the oracle cards calling in the energy to way in on this subject.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1">Indigo Angel Oracle Cards deck by Doreen Virtue, one of many, of course, decks here, we're always receiving donations if you'd like to send them.</span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">When I asked our library of oracle cards, it was this deck in particular that stepped forward and said, <em>"We can contribute something really powerful this week in particular."</em></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>Angels what do we need to know right now about going on an information diet? Is there something under neath what we've been experiencing? I feel this card coming through ... "Mother Mary."</strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Mother Mary ... In the energy, I'm hearing that she has to do a lot with protection, gentleness and compassion. Not only for others, but also for ourselves. They're telling me to read also the entry in particular so let's check this out together.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><em><span class="s1"><strong>"Known as the Queen of Angels, Mother Mary is the embodiment of unconditional love and compassion. This card calls for you to look at the people in your life, as well as yourself, with the same love. Mother Mary can help you embrace your gifts and talents and honor yourself in every moment. Sometimes called the divine nurturer, she reminds you to be proud of how far you've come in this life time, and encourages you to keep moving forward."</strong></span></em></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">The guides are telling me to stop right there for a moment. When we go on a diet, it's not just about limitation, but it's also about adding in things that are better, right?</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #000000;">The guides are saying limit the negative input, increase the positive input - such as with appreciation.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>Look at all the incredible things that you've accomplished lately. Think about the last year of your life, how much have you gotten done? Especially things that you thought would've never been possible, right?</strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">If I would pause for a moment, and appreciate and acknowledge what I've done, "Oh my gosh" in the last year:</span></p>
<ul>
<li class="p1"><span class="s1">I have a brand new dojo</span></li>
<li class="p1"><span class="s1">I'm going on a national tour</span></li>
<li class="p1"><span class="s1">I've secured several international tour dates</span></li>
<li class="p1"><span class="s1">I've celebrated my 30th birthday</span></li>
<li class="p1"><span class="s1">I've maintained my health</span></li>
<li class="p1"><span class="s1">I've created new and wonderful deepened relationships with my family</span></li>
<li class="p1"><span class="s1">I now know hundreds and hundreds of people personally, and have touched hundreds of lives.</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span class="s1">If I were to appreciate what I've done in the last year, I'd run out of time on this video.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">I need you to do that for yourself this week. This is what the guides are telling me to relay to you.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><em><span class="s1"><strong>"Mother Mary protects, guides, and supports all children, including Indigo Children. Indigo Children are those that are highly intuitive, perceptive and sensitive. She also helps you to help other children.Call upon Mother Mary to open your heart and make you aware of what a blessing you are to this planet."</strong></span></em></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Someone just got a chill, I felt that in the energy. You're purpose is to help children in this life time because of what happened to you as a child. (If that's you, send me an email back, really curious to hear who that's for.)</span></p>
<p class="p1">This is where we'll leave off.</p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>You're going on an information diet, not because you want to shut other people out, but instead you want to tune into who you really are.</strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">You know, you barely have enough energy to manage your own life, and manage your own self. Be kind to yourself and focus on the positive this week in particular.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Try it out, 7 days; if, you know, it all goes to hell then you only did it for 7 days and then you're free. I'm sure you're going to like how it feels to have unplugged from those negative influences.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>Send me an email back, comment below. Let me know, what are you going to do for your information diet. What do you feel has been influencing, or who do you feel has been influencing how you feel lately? I'd love to hear what your story is.</strong></span></p>

<h2><span style="color: #800080;"><em>Tired of keeping up with the Joneses?</em></span></h2>
<h2><em>Wish you could just be yourself with people, but are too scared of what they'll think?</em></h2>
<h2><em>Hiding your pain and exhaustion behind your smile more than you'd like to admit?<br />
</em></h2>
<p>Popular culture and educational systems teach us that it's our level of performance that determines our worth.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, living a life of high-performance doesn't lead to self-acceptance and fulfillment; instead, quite the opposite happens.</p>
<p><span style="color: #008080;"><strong>Watch this week's 10-minute Love Letter video to explore why we overperform so much, and how you can start to break free from this vicious cycle!<br />
</strong></span></p>
<p><span id="more-3615"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;"><em><span style="color: #800080;"><b>"I am so drained. I feel like everything is falling apart."</b></span></em></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">This week, Source has got two words for you.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>Stop performing. Stop it. This is not a performance. You're not putting on a show. Your life is meant to be lived authentically, okay?</strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Let's get into this. When we are performing, we feel like we're pushing to get others' approval, or pushing to be productive, or pushing to get recognition, or pushing to be accepted, or we're trying to be good, or we're trying to be healthy, or we're trying to make everyone feel comfortable. There's this sense of artifice, and energy that's expounded, and really shoved out of us, this performance. It's go time.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">Performance is really meant for spurts. It's not meant to be a lifestyle. </span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">I'm telling you, who's watching right now, you've created a lifestyle of performing:</span></p>
<ul>
<li class="p1"><span class="s1">You perform for your kids, as mother.</span></li>
<li class="p1"><span class="s1">You perform for your clients.</span></li>
<li class="p1"><span class="s1">You perform for your boss, as star employee.</span></li>
<li class="p1"><span class="s1">You perform for your parents as the perfect son.</span></li>
<li class="p1"><span class="s1">You perform for your community as the perfect person, or the best, the go-to guy.</span></li>
<li class="p1"><span class="s1">As grandma, you're just always there, filling this role that either you've created for yourself, that you have to live up to, or it's been placed upon you.</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span class="s1">Oh, you're really good at this. </span><span class="s1">Let's put you on this pedestal, so that you have to always operate at that level.</span></p>
<p><strong><span class="s1">I'm vibing very specific with you right now. I feel it very strongly, of how tired you are performing, performing, performing, trying to be someone that at the end of the day, you're just drained, pushing at that level, or really trying to make something work that is falling apart.</span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Maybe you're trying to make it work, and you're the only one trying to make it work, and putting on a happy face for others, so that no one knows all of the pain that is behind that performance mask, that has become your face.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>There's so much more for you. Beaming love and acceptance at you. And this week in particular, we have to accept who we are, is what Source is saying, specifically by stopping the performance.</strong></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/a4BR7"><strong><span class="s1">Know this: Worry will die when you increase your faith. Go for it this week and trust yourself! @SenseiWhitfield</span></strong></a></h2>
<p><a href="http://ctt.ec/a4BR7"><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></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Performance is over. Curtain call. Yay. Everyone's clapping. Okay, you're done. What happens?</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>I'm starting to hear the oracle cards calling in the energy about who are you when you're not performing?</strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">This is a journaling. This is a conversation having kind of topic. This is not one specific, one love letter, and you're going to figure this one all out. No.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">This is a journey in and of itself, finding out, who are you when you're not performing, into the role, or the mask, right, that you've created for yourself, or that you've inherited.</span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">The Oracle Cards that want to weigh on this, so who are you when you're not performing is the life purpose oracle cards deck by Doreen Virtue.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>Can you even imagine? Angels, help us imagine, who are we when we stop performing, and really start stepping into being authentic?</strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Maybe at work, maybe even in our homes, and our private lives, who are we? Hmm.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">School. The answer that you're seeking involves going to school, and this is where we're going to leave off this week in particular.</span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">This is about learning more about yourself, so perhaps you are currently in school right now, or you've been to school in the past, you've studied before, majored in a certain area, or have had certifications in a certain area.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Look to what inspires you the most in your self education. At school, there are certain subjects that you vibrate with the most.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">If you're currently in school, maybe art class is something that really just flows out of you. You don't have to perform when you're drawing. You're just in the moment, or writing, or theater, or perhaps in debate, you're just flowing. You don't even have to perform. It's just part of you. You love that intellectual stimulation, right, of debate, or history.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>If you are not currently in school, what have you been looking at going back to school for recently?</strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">What would you study simply for the love of it, where you know that at 3AM, if you had to do a project for that specific field of study, you'd be over the moon.<em> "Oh, my gosh. I would love to be up at 3AM writing about this, or studying and practicing for this."</em></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>The guides are pushing you towards education to really help you see, who are you when you're not performing?</strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">It's a bit ironic, because we tend to associate school with performance, right? If you get an A, then you're acceptable. A does not mean acceptable. Wrong, so if that's what's coming up for you, by the way, if you're watching, let that one go.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>Instead, what would you study simply for the love of it, if there was no grade, if you were just in school for the love of it?</strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">For me, it's meditation and Reiki, world religions, parapsychology, metaphysics, manifestation, and all of that yummy, juice, vortex-y goodness. Right? That's who I am when I'm not performing, and I happen to have integrated that personally into my work. What is it for you? Look to your education.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>Post below in the comments. Let me know, what do you find out? What would you study for the love of it? What are you doing in your free time, and studying in your free time, Googling constantly about? That might be a clue as to who you are when you're not performing. I'm here for you.</strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Contact me if you want to set up a session, so that we can clarify that. I do hour long sessions, as well as half hour sessions on a regular basis, because having regular accountability makes all the difference, okay?</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Make sure that you subscribe on YouTube, so that you get your love letters first every week, and we will see you next time!</span></p>
<p><strong style="line-height: 1.5;">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>Make time to get clarity: journal about what you do simply for the love and pleasure of it, especially listing things that no one knows.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Then write down how it feels when you're doing these things, versus when you feel like you're performing or trying to appease others.</strong></p>
