<h2><em>Are you, or is someone you know, a workaholic?</em><span style="color: #800080;"><em><br />
</em></span></h2>
<p><em>Worried that if you say "no" when people who ask for help, that you'll be mean or they won't like you?<br />
</em></p>
<p><em>Drowning in projects and things to manage, at work AND at home?<br />
</em></p>
<p>It's easier to just give in and say "yes" and be seen as helpful, than to stand your ground and say "no" and be seen as possibly selfish.</p>
<p>But when we do that, we add another project on to our already overwhelmed plate of "helpfulness" - perhaps this is more than just being helpful, perhaps it's now an addiction.</p>
<p>Watch this week's 15-minute love letter for the fifth and final installment in our 5-week deep dive on self care versus self sabotage to send healing to our relationship with (personal and professional) help-a-holism.<span style="color: #008080;"><strong><br />
</strong></span></p>
<p><span id="more-3885"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;"><em><b>"I never feel like I'm doing enough."</b></em></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">We've been on a five-week-long deep dive into the dance that we empaths do between self-care and self-sabotage. All the different ways that we stand in the way of shining our light to our fullest potential. I'm really grateful. I just want to thank you for tuning in for week five. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">I want to thank you for all your support over the years, of the love letters, my gosh. What? We're going on four or five years straight of love letters. I just want to thank you for your continued support.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> This week in particular, we're going to focus on self-sabotage around workaholism and help-a-holism, fix-a-holism. Helping, and fixing, and putting out all the fires, and working all the limbs all day. Those of us who are highly sensitive individuals who are naturally empathic, who are naturally intuitive. Last week we discovered your call to be a healer, your call to healing leadership. You're sensitive for that reason.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> But this week is the dark side of that, where you can be so driven to help, and to fix, and to take care give, and to take responsibility; but you lose yourself. Not only lose yourself, you may even hurt yourself.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Be kind yourself, if this is you. This last one, baby, is for you. This is our swan song, yes? </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>Workaholism, guides say that the soul craving behind that, or that the hidden feeling driver behind helping everybody, and fixing everything, and working constantly. The addiction to work, and projecting.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Not just projecting stuff, we're projecting people, like in your relationships, yes, yes? Maybe this isn't you, maybe we're talking about somebody else. We can pretend. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">But, maybe let that obsession with being everybody's caregiver, taking care of everybody and everything. What's the hidden driver behind that? </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">And the guides say that it is the feeling of, <em>"I'm not good enough. I'm not doing enough. I am good when I am doing. I am only good when I am doing." </em></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Doing good, doing stuff for other people, pleasing others, when I'm gaining approval. Yes, yes? When I'm gaining recognition, I am worthy based on my output ... which is faulty. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Yes, it is good to do good things and to help others. This is not to say that you shouldn't be helping other people, and that you should be like, <em>"All right, screw you all, I'm going home."</em> Right? Pulling a Cartman. No, that's not what we're talking about here.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> As much as that sounds fabulous to one of you ... I just heard someone in the energies saying, <em>"I want to tell everyone, 'Go away.'"</em> If that's you ... Bear with me, we're going to make it through this. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">But, what's also coming up behind that, as your working, working, working and saying yes to everything; the flipside is the fear of saying, "no." Our lack of boundaries is fueling this relentless need for approval and affirmation. In the workplace, or in the eyes of someone that you helped, or getting to see their transformation so you feel worthy, because they had an outcome or you had an impact on them.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> What happens, however, when there's nothing to do, no one to save, nothing to fix? </strong>The big question is, are you still worthy? Are you still lovable? Are you still acceptable? Are you still good? Are you still okay, as a person if you don't have something to do, something to do, something to do? This is a big one. When we have this addiction, this also expresses as a lack of boundaries. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> What are boundaries? This is the million-dollar word for every single empath like, ever: boundaries. Boundaries are the invisible lines that separate what is you and what is not you; what is yours and what is not yours. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Now, from a spiritual perspective, yes, there is the universal law of oneness, which says, "All that is, is one." But that doesn't mean you have to do everything all the time, or that everything that's yours belongs to everybody else, or that you don't have any selfness. You don't have a worth because you don't have a self.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> No. That's not what that is saying. Instead, that's just to appreciate the interconnectedness and interdependence of all of life, and all that is. However, we're talking about this turning into co dependence. Codependency is when you depend on someone or something outside of you for a sense of emotional security, to give you your emotional security, or even your identity. You're depending on them.</span></p>

<span style="color: #ffffff;">--</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Workaholism, for example, my dad was a lawyer, I'm a lawyer, my kids are going to be a lawyer. If I ever lose this job, I don't know what I'm gonna do; where your job defines your personality. That's a codependent relationship. That means that you are at risk of losing yourself if that thing shifts at all. You've given all your power over to the thing that you are dependent upon. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Be kind to yourself if this is speaking to you. I don't know who this message is for, but I'm sharing it anyway, following spirit's guidance. With that, also, where we have the sense of addiction to getting things done and putting out fires, putting out fires putting out fires. Whenever we put out a fire, we get that little bit of,<em> "Yay, I did it."</em> And that, <em>"Yay,"</em> is what we're addicted to, of winning and the feedback loop of, "I'm putting out and I'm receiving, putting out and I'm receiving."</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> That's why so many men end up becoming not present at home, because the job is what gives them recognition and affirmation constantly, and you come home to a wife that is just not paying attention, and not able to give you that feedback. It is, unfortunately, natural to become addicted more to work, where you're recognized, and you feel like you have an impact in the relationship more with your job than your own partner. Scary. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">That happens to women, too, I'm not just talking about men, okay. I hear my guide saying, "This happens to the ladies, too," where work or the kids become more important than their partner, because there's something to work on. There's always something. The mom-ness becomes the identity rather than yourself being your identity, becoming codependent to the children.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Be kind to yourself if this is you. Now, this week in particular, the guides are saying, <em>"How do we get out of this?"</em> This addiction to working and losing ourself without our boundaries. Well, is to have values. This week in particular, you want to focus on writing out a list of what your core, desired feelings and your most prioritized values are in life. Allow your schedule to be according to what you prioritize most, what you value the most. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> First things first, as they say. I believe that's in the Seven Habits of Highly Effective People. Put first things first. Is family really important to you? If so, where is family in your schedule? This week, we want to put, "What are your core desired feelings?" I want to feel free, I want to feel abundant, I want to feel loved, I want to feel sensual. Where are those feelings in how you spend your time each day? Rather than letting the thing that you are co dependently addicted to, such as the work or the caregiving, et cetera rather than letting only that determine how you spend your time.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1"> This is going to shift your relationship with your workaholism. Your addiction is going shift. If you can just get clear on, <em>"What are your core, desired feelings, and what are your most prioritized values?"</em> </span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">We forget, we're in that tunnel of, "I'm doing stuff, I'm doing stuff, I'm doing stuff. I'm so productive, I'm so busy. I'm doing all this busy stuff." There's a difference between being busy and actually being in business. There's a difference between being busy and actually being focused.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> This, our core, desired feelings and our most prioritized values are what are going to help us clarify that. To end, Doreen Virtue, Angel Therapy; yet another one of our Doreen Virtue decks. Angels, what we need to know this week? To round off our five-week deep dive into the dance between self sabotage and self care.<em> "Listen to your intuitive feelings."</em> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Listen to your intuitive feelings. Your body is receiving accurate messages from the divine. This is perfect, given what we're talking about.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> One of the main reasons why we can get stuck in, or create stuck-ness in a codependent, workaholic, fixaholic relationship is because we'll drown out the sensations of our body. We're not in touch. We're not in touch with ... <em>"Oh, my neck is starting to hurt because it's 10:00 PM and I'm still at work."</em> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">We'll just keep going, going, going. Or, you know what? I actually ... I'm not really hungry for that extra candy bar, as we talked ... The second week was food. I'm not actually hungry for that chocolate candy bar. Actually, I'm craving love and affection. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> Instead of shoving a chocolate candy bar down my throat so I can stay working at the computer all the livelong day, instead I'm going to reach out to receive some physical touch, or love and affection from a loved one. Listen to your feelings.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Your sensitivity is your strength here, and it's the gateway to your next level in life. Send me an email back, comment below. Let me know what's coming up for you around this, and how has this series been for you? </span></p>
<p class="p2"><span class="s1"> Are you liking the multi-week deep dives? Let me know, let me know. </span></p>
<p class="p2"><span class="s1">Source has been telling me that you and I have got to develop a deeper relationship, and go deeper into the information, rather than just doing one idea a week. Nah, let's go there. Let's go there together, okay? </span></p>
<p class="p2"><span class="s1">Make sure you subscribe on YouTube so that you get your love letters every week, and I'll see you next time. Muah, bye</span></p>

<h2><span style="color: #800080;"><em>Are your joints stiff and achey from sitting all day at the computer?<br />
</em></span></h2>
<h2><em>Been so busy taking care of business that you completely forgot to eat breakfast and/or lunch?<br />
</em></h2>
<h2><em>Feeling tired all the time?<br />
</em></h2>
<p>These are signs that you are physically ungrounded.</p>
<p>It's time to clear out that stagnant energy and get you back in flow!</p>
<p><span style="color: #008080;"><strong>Watch this week's 11-minute love letter video, which is the second of a four part series on grounding.</strong></span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><span id="more-3853"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;"><em><span style="color: #800080;"><b>"I lay awake at night thinking about what I need to do next."</b></span></em></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Last week, we discussed why we ground and what's at stake in that. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">The reason why, just as a quick recap, is because we're empathic beings. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1">We all have a natural empathic sense, which picks up ambient, intuitive data, and sometimes, that sense can get overwhelmed, and grounding flushes that and manages the health of our empathic system. </span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Today, we're going to be talking about what is physical grounding? </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>Have you ever had this experience where, let's say you're at work, you're in the zone, and you're really typing up this really great thing, maybe email, or report, or whatever, and you're on the phone, man, you're really jamming out with whoever you're serving.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Then you're going over to do this task and then this task, and then so and so needs your help, and so you're helping them, and then you're ... Before you know it, the end of the day comes. You haven't peed. You haven't eaten. You haven't even been outside. Before you know it, I'm looking at the window over here. Beautiful, beautiful, sunny day outside. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1">Before you know it, the day is gone. The whole season, maybe, even is gone. </span>This is a sign that you are physically ungrounded.</strong></p>
<p class="p1">Another one.</p>
<p class="p1">Maybe you work at home at your computer, or maybe as a student, you're going to class all day and studying.</p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong>Do you ever have these feelings of tightness in your shoulders? Tightness in your neck and your upper back?</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1">Tightness, I know you can feel it as I'm doing this, in your hips, right, and your pelvis, tightness in your knees. Tightness in your jaw. Tightness, do you feel tightness?</p>
<p class="p1"><strong>That is a sign that you are physically ungrounded.</strong></p>

<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Be kind to yourself, if this is speaking to you. Here's the thing. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>Physical grounding is managing our empathic system as it manifests physically.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Another form, another sign that you are physically ungrounded, is that your space is disorderly. Maybe there's stuff on the floor and stuff like that. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Right now, I have all these lovely resources to share with you for whichever want to come, speaks to me, but this is clutter. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>Clutter is a sign of ungrounding.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">I'm in my crown chakra shocker right now. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">That's why I have this on the treatment table. I will ground after I do this video, of course, but if there's clutter, that's another physical sign that you're physically ungrounded. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1"> I'm standing to speak to you to make sure that I keep regrounding, regrounding, regrounding my physical body so that I'm able to present to you.</span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Here's the thing. If you find that tension in your body, or if you find that you have not peed, you are not eating, like you're forgetting to take care of the body, you're not even sleeping because you're just laying awake at night thinking, <em>"Oh, I gotta do this thing for so and so. I gotta go get Ben to go ... I gotta go get Stacy, and I gotta go get Jennifer and blah, and so and so, and ... "</em></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> You may love everybody. I do, too, hey, and there are some people that are stinky. I understand, I know some stinky winkies too, like the crusty crabs. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>Laying awake at night, trying to problem solve all up in here does nothing for all this.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> This week in particular, the guides are asking for you to focus on taking care of your physical health, and clearing all that mental, emotional energy from your body, by connecting to your body naturally. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>Now by the way, one way that you can do that is allowing nature to call.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Anyone knows that when they come to meetings here, whether they're on a team healing journey here at the dojo, where we're doing healing journeys for entire offices, and teams, together. Which is awesome. Or if you're here for the retreats at the dojo. I'm loving how I'm phrasing things right now. Send me some love. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Whether you're here on retreats here at the dojo, and you're here for five hours, or more, everyone knows, about every hour I say, <em>"Ready? Run and pee for your life. Let's take a pee break."</em> This is physically grounding. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>This is to honor the fact that your body has functions.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Believe it or not, not allowing your body to eliminate, whether it's poo, or pee, or the blood that comes out for ladies, or for the rest of us when we have an orgasm and releasing that energy, that can hold in empathic data. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Yes, really. Allow yourself to go to the bathroom. I know some of you are watching this and being like, <em>"Come on Victoria, are you serious?"</em> Yes. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong> For those who are highly empathic you can get so absorbed in the nonphysical aspects of being highly empathic that you forget to take care of your body.</strong> </span></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">When you're cultivating your natural intuition, your physical channel has got to be clear and grounded, grounded meaning connected to your zero, right? </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>Connected to neutral to nature, so that it can easily receive and release empathic data.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> No my guides are telling me to pull a card. Let's see which deck? Which deck am I going to choose? I'll bring you with me. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">Archangel Michael is coming through right now. We'll close this week out with Archangel Michael, another Doreen Virtue deck, one of 20, and counting. </span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">By the way you can always, always, always, send gift of oracle cards here to the dojo. We're happy to receive that. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Okay, some of the cards are forward pointing, so we're going to put them back to normal. Whenever people come for meditation class here at the dojo, everyone plays with the oracle cards, pulls their own reading. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">It's one of the lovely perks of coming to meditation class. It's Monday and Thursday night at 7 pm here in Westfield, New Jersey. If you're out of state, we could get you on Skype, but I can't really pull cards for you because you're far away, or maybe I could.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> All right Archangel Michael, what do we need to know this week about physical grounding? New beginnings and a fresh start.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">That's beautiful. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><em><span class="s1">"Thank you for bringing new opportunities and offering support, and for help me release, and heal, my past. Fill me with trust as I experience these life changes." </span></em></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>Releasing and healing my past, my guides are saying, really circling that, in the energy for physical grounding.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">This week in particular, it's time to poop. Go on a cleanse. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">As you cleanse your intestinal system, you are actually releasing the past. </span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">All of those emotions, tensions, experiences, worries, can get backed up in your system. It's not just poo cleanse, but I can also be a blood cleanse, a liver cleanse. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>This week my guides are talking cleanse, to help you ground and clear your personal energy, specifically for maintaining your empathic system.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p2"><span class="s1"> What kind of cleanse are you going to do? Is it going to be more fiber? Are you going to go on a juice cleanse? </span></p>
<p class="p2"><span class="s1">Maybe you're going to take alfalfa sprout pills, or whatever works for you, comment below. Whether you're on YouTube or on VictoriaWhitfield.com, I'd love to hear it. </span></p>
<p class="p2"><strong><span class="s1">You can send me an email back, just respond to this email that you received to your inbox of your love letter. </span></strong></p>
<p class="p2"><span class="s1">By the way, if you're not getting these every week, what are you doing? Go ahead to VictoriaWhitfield.com/freegift, to make sure that you get your love letter every week, and I'll send you a free meditation for signing up, so that you could start clearing your energy right now. Okay? </span></p>
<p class="p2"><span class="s1">Let me know how this goes and we'll see you next week for week three of four in our deep dive around grounding. See you then.</span></p>

<p><strong><em>Just for Today...</em></strong></p>
<p><strong>Prioritize connecting to your physical body while at work.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Schedule time during the day to use the restroom, stretch and eat healthy foods, rather than only prioritizing "getting as much stuff done as you possibly can as quickly as you can."</strong></p>
<p><strong><em>Notice how you feel at that moment - you're already healing!</em></strong></p>

<h2><span style="color: #800080;"><em>Believe that you "have to" stay later at work to prove your worth to the company?</em></span></h2>
<h2><em>Do you eat lunch at the computer and bring work home with you to save time?</em></h2>
<h2><em>Tired of feeling overworked and underpaid?</em></h2>
<p><em>"All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy" is actually the truth.</em></p>
<p><em>Even if we love what we do for a living, it's important to find a safe, loving balance between contributing (through work) and receiving (through self-care, etc.) abundantly in life.</em></p>
<p><span style="color: #008080;"><strong>Watch the above 10-minute video to stop being a workaholic and heal your addiction for good!</strong></span></p>
<p><span id="more-1912"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;"><em><span style="color: #800080;"><b>"If I'm not working, I don't feel safe<em>.</em>"</b></span></em></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">I'm hearing the Oracle cards calling in the energy now. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Be kind to yourself this week. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1">If you are an workaholic, if you have self-identified as being a workaholic, you don't have to do that. </span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">You don't have to stay later, you don't have to come earlier, you don't have to eat lunch at the computer. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #333333;"><strong>You don't have to bring work home with you and work on the laptop in front of the TV while you're on Facebook on your cellphone, and maybe even&nbsp;another couple of screens around you. </strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #333333;">You don't have to. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">There is an enabling pattern going on here, and the enabling is serving you on some level, and Source wants you to know that something about this addiction is serving you -- what is it?</span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1"><span style="color: #800080;"> It's this: you're trying to fill a Soul scar of neglect.</span> </span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Whether you were neglected as a child, or are feeling neglected in your relationship or at work now, or you've been neglecting yourself -- neglecting your own relationship with yourself -- these cycles of neglect perpetuate cycles of workaholism.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">This goes for any of the "-aholisms" -- alcoholism, for example. is to fill that space, that Soul scar of neglect. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #333333;"><strong><span class="s1">It's an aching space. It doesn't have to be this way, though.</span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> The Oracle cards for this week are the fairies sending us love and joy.&nbsp;Let's see. What have you got to tell us, fairies? </span></p>
<blockquote><p>&nbsp;</p>
<p class="p1"><em><span class="s1">Feeling safe.</span></em></p>
</blockquote>
<p class="p1"><span style="line-height: 1.5;">There's a strong, deep resonance coming from this card. I couldn't agree with the fairies more. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span style="line-height: 1.5;">The first thing that I'm hearing in the energy is that, <em>"Well, if I'm not working, I don't feel safe."</em> </span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="line-height: 1.5;">That's the dilemma of retirement, by the way. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="line-height: 1.5;">Ah, the dilemma of retirement. <em>"OK, I'm not working anymore. Out into the great unknown! What the heck is life without work?"</em> </span><span style="line-height: 1.5;">Right? </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span style="line-height: 1.5;">Work is a coping mechanism to deal with experiencing life uncensored. </span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="line-height: 1.5;">A coping mechanism to deal with experiencing your own emotions, your own desires, your own vision, your own passion and purpose uncensored.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #333333;"><strong><span style="line-height: 1.5;">Work, at its lower vibration, is the biggest coping mechanism and distraction you experience in your adult life.</span></strong></span></p>
<h2><strong>Know this:&nbsp;<a href="http://ctt.ec/cxpjd" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Work can either be a distraction from an unfulfilled life or a vehicle for expressing love.</a></strong></h2>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> But let's see what the channeling is from the fairies:<em>&nbsp;</em></span></p>
<blockquote><p>&nbsp;</p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><em>Any feelings of danger of vulnerability are healing.</em>&nbsp;</span></p>
</blockquote>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Wow! You know, usually when we think of feeling vulnerable we get scared. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Say you're feeling</span><span class="s1"> financially vulnerable because you're unemployed right now.&nbsp;</span><span class="s1">To all my unemployed members of The TRIBE on the list, all my unemployed people, I'm sending you LOTS of love right now!&nbsp;</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">But, they're saying feeling vulnerable can be healing? </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>You know, there are times when we go through bouts of unemployment where looking for money becomes our job, and that's our number one focus.</strong>&nbsp;</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">It's a</span><span class="s1">&nbsp;worry, a fear, a frustration. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">And then there are the blessed moments when we realized in unemployment, holy cow, the world is my oyster right now, or I'm rekindling my relationship with my family, and with myself, because I have time and space to do that. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>That higher vibration is what the fairies are talking about.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">But I'm only one phrase in. It wasn't even a whole sentence of what they said:&nbsp;</span></p>
<blockquote><p>&nbsp;</p>
<p class="p1"><em><span style="line-height: 1.5;">Any feelings of danger or vulnerability are healing, and they are replaced with the certain knowledge that you are safe and protected right now. </span></em></p>
<p class="p1"><em><span style="line-height: 1.5;">Have you felt frightened or insecure lately? </span></em></p>
<p class="p1"><em><span style="line-height: 1.5;">If so, this card is a signal that heaven is aware of your feelings and has come to your aid. </span></em></p>
<p class="p1"><em><span style="line-height: 1.5;">You are surrounded by heavenly beings who love and protect you on an ongoing basis. The fairies remind you...</span></em></p>
</blockquote>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span style="line-height: 1.5;">I just heard in the energy for all of us who feel like workaholics right now -- Source is saying we're looking for ongoing protection to come from work, rather than looking for it to come from Spirit.</span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="line-height: 1.5;">And if you don't believe in a higher power, to all of my loves on the list out in The TRIBE&nbsp;who are Atheist, see "Spirit" as looking into your own inner spirit, the human spirit, your own will, your own desire to live, your capability as a human being. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span style="line-height: 1.5;">Rather than looking inward, we're looking outward for protection. And that's why it can be addictive. </span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="line-height: 1.5;">Why? Because whenever we look outward -- we will never be satisfied being external focused.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1"> When you're looking for what to energetically feed on and what to do to "find" (or <em>define</em>)&nbsp;yourself, you won't&nbsp;find what you're looking for&nbsp;in just work. You're much bigger than that.</span></strong></span></p>
<blockquote><p>&nbsp;</p>
<p class="p1"><em><span class="s1">The fairies remind you that your thoughts of danger are triggering your feelings of vulnerability. In your mind you have given power to some outside entity." </span></em></p>
</blockquote>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Your job or your business or your clients, or the search for a job, or your volunteering. Big hugs to my volunteer-aholics! Wow, LOL, we're calling out everybody today!</span></p>
<blockquote><p>&nbsp;</p>
<p class="p1"><em><span class="s1">You believe that this idol that you have created has the power to hurt you, or to control your life. Yet the only power it has is that which you have attributed to it.</span></em></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><em>You gave it the power. You unplug, you've got it back for you.</em></strong></p>
</blockquote>
<blockquote><p>&nbsp;</p>
<p class="p1"><em><span class="s1">The fairies urge you to awaken from this mistaken concept, see that you have the power to create a happy and secure dream, and make the decision to feel safe by living that dream. </span></em></p>
<p class="p1"><em><span class="s1">Affirmation: 'I am safe, I am secure, I am completely protected at all times.'</span></em></p>
</blockquote>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> And this is where we're going to end. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>Being a workaholic is just a spiritual boundaries issue.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">This may have to be like a "let's get real moment" here, guys. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">You're the only one who's burying you under your work, and in fact you're the one shoveling more on top of you. </span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #333333;"><strong><span class="s1">But you don't have to be entombed like this. </span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Take personal responsibility and say: <em>"I don't have to."</em> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Say it with me. "<em>I don't have to work right now.&nbsp;I don't have to work right now.&nbsp;</em></span><span class="s1"><em>In fact,&nbsp;I'm here to live. I'm here to live my life."</em> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>Build a strategic, clear and balanced personal approach to work. </strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">And if you have a business, build your business in a way that supports you living your life in the way that you envision you want to live it at your best and highest vibration. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Send me an email back. What's coming up for you? </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">I look forward to hearing from you, and until next time, I'm just giving you tons and tons of hugs and kisses.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong style="line-height: 1.5;">In Love and Light,</strong></p>

<h2><span style="color: #800080;"><em>Having a hard time finding time for yourself lately because you're at work all the time?</em></span></h2>
<h2><em>Do you define yourself by going above and beyond the call of duty, even if it drains you?</em></h2>
<h2><em>Worried that you're spending more time at work than with your friends and family?</em></h2>
<p><em>"Doing a good job" at work can be both a positive motivation in life and an addictive distraction from life.</em></p>
<p><em>The way we tell the difference is by how we feel on a day to day basis: fulfilled and balanced or frustrated and drained.</em></p>
<p><span style="color: #008080;"><strong>Watch the above 6-minute video to learn why we get addicted to work!</strong></span></p>
<p><span id="more-1910"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;"><em><span style="color: #800080;"><b>"I've been working here for years. I've never taken a vacation."</b></span></em></p>
<p class="p1">Are you a workaholic?</p>
<p class="p1"><strong>Source this week is sending healing energy to all the members of the TRIBE&nbsp;out there who are workaholics. </strong></p>
<p class="p1">Your work ethic is at 110%, maybe around 200%.</p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #333333;"><strong>Perhaps you define yourself by how you arrive before others and leave afterward, or as the provider of the service perhaps you define yourself for going above and beyond what your clients ask for. </strong></span></p>
<p class="p1">You give them extra time. You spend time for free trying to help as many people as possible.</p>
<p class="p1">Don't worry, we're&nbsp;speaking to&nbsp;you with love, not to out you in a scary sense. Instead, let's take a look at this:</p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1"> Could you perhaps be a workaholic? </span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #333333;">If so, you may often wonder <em>"When am I going to get to just hang out with my kids next?", "When am I going to get to just enjoy a vacation sometime?"</em> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Or maybe it's one of those things that you brag about: <em>"Ha ha. I've been working here for years. I've never taken a vacation." </em></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Whoa! Heavy, right? If that's you, we're sending you love&nbsp;and this one is for you.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #333333;"><strong><span class="s1"> There's this sense of workaholism in our culture now. We have addictive personalities, especially if we are highly-sensitive, creative type individuals. </span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">We want to completely and fully experience and immerse ourselves in the creative process, in the contribution and production process. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">It is addictive to feel production and the birth of new ideas and projects happening, right? But that's where workaholism is most rampant. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">We have a NEED to "do" something: <em>"I have something to do. Give me something to do. The more I do, the better I am."</em></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #333333;"><em><span class="s1"><strong>"The more I do, the more worthy I am as a human being; the more financial worth I get, the more that makes me worthy as a human being."</strong></span></em></span></p>
<p class="p1"><em><span class="s1">"The more social worth I get, and that makes me worthy as a human being."</span></em></p>
<p class="p1"><em><span class="s1">"The more affection and attention I get, and that makes me worthy as a human being."</span></em></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Or, <em>"the more I make my parents proud or my family proud, the more that 'pride rush' I get, and that rush makes me worthy as a human being."</em></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">I'm hearing the angels saying workaholism is an expression of a soul scar that comes from being neglected.</span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">At this age and stage in your life, if you're feeling workaholism consuming your self in your work, it may be happening because either you feel neglected by somebody or you have been neglecting something or somebody -- ahem, somebody like yourself -- in a big way. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> It's a&nbsp;filler for the scar; it's a filler energy. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #333333;"><strong>Whenever we have one of those addictive behavioral patterns it's to fill the soul scar, the hole.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">A soul scar looks like a maelstrom; the energy is this sucking vortex. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">In the Universe there's positive vortexes, but then there's the draining vortexes. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>We're filling ourselves with work to make up for a sense of loneliness, frustration, a lack of self-worth or a lack of being seen, especially by those that we love.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Not being acknowledged by your mother or father, or not feeling intimately connected to your lover, or not feeling you have quality time or physical contemporaneous&nbsp;space with your children.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">There's just this sense of isolation, and so we fill it with work in order to feel better about ourselves, right? </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">To create the sense of self-worth, we work hard.</span></strong></span></p>
<h2><strong>Know this: <a href="http://ctt.ec/IsgFb" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">If you're a workaholic, you're addicted to work because your self-worth depends on it.&nbsp;</a></strong></h2>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">In fact, working hard doesn't even necessarily mean the money is coming in, right?</span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1"> It's very easy to make money. </span><span class="s1">Money is everywhere. It's just energy. </span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">But it's not about money, being a workaholic. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">I'll have people say,<em> "Oh, yeah, I'm on my grind. That's why I'm grinding every day. That's why I'm a workaholic, because I want money and I need money and I need to get more of it."</em> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">Sure it takes money to live in a developed country and take part in civilization. </span><span class="s1">But you don't have to grind to get money, especially at a higher vibration. </span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">In fact, the less you work hard, and the more you work smart, the more the money comes in abundance! 🙂</span></p>
<p class="p1"><em>Stay tuned for part 2 of 2 next week!</em></p>
<p class="p1"><strong style="line-height: 1.5;">In Love and Light,</strong></p>

<p><strong><em>Just for Today...</em></strong></p>
<p><strong>Commit to taking a full lunch break away from electronics, and to leaving on time from work today, by setting alarms on your cellphone to keep you on track.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Make sure that these time commitments are non-negotiable; meaning, you can't negotiate with YOURSELF&nbsp;about it when the time comes.</strong></p>
<div>&nbsp;<strong><em>Notice how you feel at that moment - you're already healing!</em></strong></div>
