Love Letters | One Sticky Idea – Part 2 of 5

Sensei Victoria Whitfield — Tue, 07 Jan 2020 05:00:00 +0000

We're back here at Washington Rock State Park for the continuation of our five-part series around perspective and stepping into your divinity in life and business.

This week in particular, my guides have asked me to talk to you about making one big idea sticky. One big idea. Last week, we talked about the power of stepping back, making sure that we're taking in that 20-mile view of our lives, first. And this is the perfect setting to discuss that because we've got a good 20 or 30-mile view here at Washington Rock State Park.

It's important also to be out in nature to allow your surroundings to help your mindset to expand. That's what we discussed last week, the power of stepping back, first, if we're really going to step in to our divinity. Whether it's this month, this year, or in this era of your life, we need to step back, first. And so, this week in particular, we want to take that perspective, that massive perspective, and whittle it down into one idea. Again, it's the dead of winter and I’m outside here for you, so I'm going to make this quick. Lol!

The idea, the exercise this week that my guides gave me for you so that you can make that big perspective small and to make it really stick in your heart and mind is kind of the inverse of what we did last week. Being here at Washington Rock we're using the space, we're using the openness, the vastness of the environment to open our hearts and minds, or wherever you go. Maybe for you, it's going to the ocean. Or, maybe for you, it's going skiing or going up onto the rooftop wherever you are. By the way, comment below or send me an email back at team@victoriawhitfield.com. Let me know where did – or do – you go to expand your perspective and really step back in a big way?

This week, instead, what we're going to do is use space to help us make a big idea small and sticky; what’ I’m talking about quite literally is a sticky pad. What is this pad, I’d guess about three inches or around three centimeters square? This is the amount of space to which that you have to whittle down your idea, and I recommend writing with big letters. Big ideas are best distilled down into about six words maximum, so I challenge you to do that on behalf of the spirit guides to really help you focus on your path to stepping into your divinity.

Ask yourself: What's your main outcome? What's your soul’s one desire? What is the one thing that you want the most? For me, what it came out to when I wrote my sticky was to feel loved at work. “To feel loved at work” is just five words. What's yours? Write it down on a sticky, and share it with me on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/SenseiVictoriaWhitfield/

With that, I'm going to go ahead and pull the oracle card of the week. We're journeying over these five weeks with the Isis Oracle Cards Deck by Alana Fairchild. Let's see here. What've we got? ...Ooh, awesome! “Soul retrieval. Deep soul healing with the goddess.”

I’m just going to tune in for a second now, to hear what’s the message: Guides, what do we need to know about soul retrieval and deep soul healing with the goddess? ...The first thing that drops in for me as I tune in for you is Reunion.The more that you give yourself time and space – and I mean like compressed space, or even compressed time – the more you give yourself time and space to get clarity, the more you reunite with more of who you really are.

This says soul retrieval, and it means that the more that we give ourselves these experiences and commit to actually doing the work, the more of our own power that we may have lost or forgotten along the way – whether in this lifetime or, depending on your beliefs, in other lifetimes – the more that we give ourselves time to reunite and get that clarity, the more we recover. Robert Bly describes soul as something “low and wet”, whereas spirit is something high and dry, high and bright. Soul is that which motivates us, brings us passion, joy, love, emotion, gives us strength to go on no matter what our lessons, whether they've been hard won, or from the parts of us that we may have rejected.

When we're recovering soul, this is really about us connecting to our deep passions, and how beautiful would it be if we're able to reconnect to our passion at work? As entrepreneurs, we have got to be motivated on what's our Big Why, right? This week in particular, this challenge is made simple by the spirit guides: to make sure that you use a simple, little sticky note to try and figure that Big Why out.

That's it for this week. Go ahead, comment below, send me an email back at team@victoriawhitfield.com. Make sure you subscribe on YouTube so that you get these love letters first every week. And I'll see you in the next one.

May you feel loved and safe at work this week. And, please: Enjoy the journey.

Just for today...

Grab yourself a small, square sticky note on which to write down your single-most greatest desire in life and business.

It may take a few tries, but whittle it down to a phrase of 6 words or less, written large and stated with feeling and confidence.

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

Love Letters | Spiritual Room – Part 4 of 4

Sensei Victoria Whitfield — Mon, 24 Dec 2018 05:00:44 +0000

It is week four of four in our exploration of making room for yourself.

Isn't this series on time? I'm telling you, we've been having such a powerful conversation around making room for you to be your most authentic self, to step into your fullest expression of who you really are in this lifetime. If you have not caught parts one through three, stop and go back on my blog at victoriawhitfield.com so that you can start from part one to ensure you're grounded in this process.

Without further ado, this week in particular, my guides have asked us to discuss making room for yourself spiritually. In the first few layers of us digging through this wonderful topic, we discussed making room for yourself physically, and then mentally-emotionally, but now at the final rung of our conversation around making room, what's coming up is making sure that you are making room for yourself spiritually.

Here's the thing, when we're talking about making room for ourselves spiritually, this means really rooting down into our words and rooting down into our relationship with our beliefs. We're not talking about one spiritual practice in particular, or one system of spiritual beliefs in particular as something that you need to adopt. You may have one specific subscription to a certain worldview or point of view, a certain perspective that you believe in, and you may have inherited that, or chosen it over time.

But if we're going to make room for you being the fullest expression of who you really are, then we must make room for you in your spiritual energy, and this has to do with redefining your unique relationship with spirit. Your unique relationship with your worldview. Sure, maybe you may be Christian or Jewish or atheist, or you may be in the “spiritual, but not religious” or new-age types. Or you may be Muslim, or Mormon and something else. You may have religious and or spiritual views and practices that you resonate with, but what my guides are asking me to invite you to this week in particular, is renewing your unique description of that. Your unique relationship, your unique definition of your beliefs. And this involves defining your Values.

Danielle Laporte gives us a wonderful example of how to do this in her book, The Desire Map. She calls this having “core desired feelings,” or Napoleon Hill in Think and Grow Rich calls this, having “definiteness of purpose.” Tony Robbins helps us begin to stick our toes into this water with the Ericksonian Six Human Needs. There's so many different ways that we can go about defining what our Values are. For example, even in your Business Plan, you have the mission, vision and values statements.

The words that we put to your unique stance on who you are and what you believe have power. And they have power because your spirituality is grounded in what you value. Spirit is what really dictates the decisions that we make in life. It dictates the overarching direction for us.

It's important that you make room for you and your unique voice in what you believe. Sure you might be Christian, or sure you might be atheist, but why? What's your story around that? Sure, you may believe in Buddhist meditation or yoga, or you may believe in Reiki and prayer or whatever. But why? What does that mean to you? It’s time to get clear on Why YOU believe what you do.--

I'm hearing the Oracle Cards calling in the energy to help ground us, and give a little bit more clarity for our topic for the week. Suffice it to say that when you are making room for yourself spiritually, this has to do with your unique relationship with God, your unique relationship with Source, and your unique relationship with all of brother and sister humanity. What is your perspective? Not anybody else's perspective. Everyone is informing you, but we want to hear what is your unique perspective, because where we're going to be covering next is stepping into your divinity, and we have got to know what's in there in order to step IN with grace. Are you ready for that? So stay tuned. I'll see you in the next love letter for that. But before we even go there, we got to read the Oracle Card of the week. We're not there yet. It's the Angels of Abundance Oracle Cards deck.

By the way, my goodness, this is the last video at this dojo space. Three years of amazingness, thank you goddess! So grateful. All righty, Angels of Abundance, what do we need to know right now about making room for ourselves spiritually? Partnership. ...This is kind of freaky for me personally, I'll get to that in a second.

Partnership. What's dropping in for you in particular is that your spiritual journey in life is not just your devotion to your beliefs, but it is a partnership with the forces of nature and energy in your life. It's a partnership; eye to eye, heart to heart, pelvis to pelvis, mind to mind. This life and all that is, is a partnership. There is none above and there is none below you. You are one. We are all one, and remember that. I'm going to read, and then I'll tell you what came up for me personally.

“Allow helpful supportive partnerships into your personal life and career, and both parties benefit as a result. You are receiving help from heaven and from a person who brings needed skills and resources.”

This is where we're going to leave off for this week: embracing partnership in your spirituality. Remember that Source and Spirit are resources for you. This is where your energy, fuel and nourishment come from, so remember to call that in and call it in abundance. What a powerful message.

For me personally, I take a word a year that as the theme for the entire year. At the filming of this video, you'll be seeing us at the end of December 2018. My word for 2019 is Collaboration. Partnership is collaboration. This is really wild that this card came forward. It's resonating!

I'm curious what's your word for your year? Go ahead, send me an email back at team@victoriawhitfield.com or comment below. I would love to hear what's your word, your theme for 2019. And, let's do this! I'm so excited to see what we're going to create together, partnering together.

Make sure you subscribe on YouTube so that you get these Love Letters, first, every week. Hit that share button for whoever needs to hear this and whoever is coming up in your energy that they need this, too. I will see you next time. Happy New Year, or anytime that you're watching this.

Just for today...

Write down all of the things you believe, hold true and all your personal and professional values.

Make it a point to describe your beliefs in your own words, connecting to voicing your truth for yourself, as yourself.

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

Love Letters | Emotional Grounding – Part 3 of 4

Sensei Victoria Whitfield — Mon, 18 Sep 2017 12:00:20 +0000

Feeling anxious and depressed?

Always putting yourself down, doubting and second-guessing yourself?

Can't seem to quiet your "mind-chatter" or "monkey-mind"?

If so, then these are signs that you're mentally and emotionally ungrounded.

But what do you do when your own worst enemy is in your head?

Watch this week's 10-minute love letter, which is the third of four video messages covering the power of Grounding for improving and maintaining the health of your empathic energy system.

"I'm too afraid to even try meditating."

This week in particular we are on week three of four in a deep dive around what is grounding and how to really live a grounded life.

Last week we spoke about physical grounding, knowing the symptoms of being physically ungrounded.

Now that was only a partial list. A complete list is here in my "Natural Intuition Now" book. It's much more comprehensive. We have list after lists of more and more things to look out for, so go ahead on Amazon.com, order that. That's book one by the way for beginners, "Natural Intuition Now" book one. It's on Amazon.com. In two days it'll be at your doorstep if you've got prime.

So for today in particular we are talking about emotional and mental grounding.

Last week we looked at making sure that we're cleansing so that we're physically connected to our nature so that our bod's an open channel for allowing empathic energy to flow to and through us, not getting clogged up even on a physical level, right?

For emotional and mental symptoms of being ungrounded, what that looks like is anxiety, depression, racing repetitive thoughts, negative self-talk, a pessimistic mindset, really set against understanding or being open-minded, like having a closed mindset.

These are symptoms of being mentally and emotionally ungrounded. Why?

Because on a mental and emotional level, you're going against your nature.

So having pent up feelings for example and not being able to be emotionally accessible or expressive is also symptoms of being emotionally ungrounded.

Remember, being grounded is being connected to our nature, our zero, our neutral set point.

How can we, this week in particular, get more connected to being emotionally and mentally grounded? Maybe you do have the racing thoughts. Maybe it's hard for you to focus naturally, right? There's just so much going on in your head.

I've even had clients where, "Victoria, I don't even want to try meditating because I don't know what I'm going to find once I start digging." I don't know, they'll have this fear which is another symptom of being emotionally and mentally ungrounded. So what exactly can we do?

Know this: Fear is a symptom of being mentally & emotionally ungrounded.

Now there are many things that you can go about that. Again in the book there's list after list after list of things that you can do for emotional and mental grounding, but this week in particular my guides are saying the technique to observe yourself in this week is around your relationship with time.

Time actually doesn't exist. Time is emotion.

Time is emotion. Sure, there's like a clock, right?

I watch the clock and stuff while I'm speaking to you or holding space for the sessions here so I can be the time goods to keep you grounded emotionally however is why I do that, because how stressful does that feel, how much negative emotion comes up when people are running over or someone is taking up more of your time.

How refreshing emotionally does that feel when we're ending even on time or even just a little bit early so there's just enough for me to get up, stretch myself, and release we were just doing.

How compressed does the emotion feel when it's a tense environment? How compressed as in slow moving does time move when the air in the room is tense?

Maybe there's an argument at work or maybe at home there's a lot of stress in the environment. All that emotional, thoughtful tense energy causes things to creep along. Whereas if we're happy, we're rocking out, we're having a good time, a party, wherever. Suddenly time flies.

Time is emotion.

So this week in particular the guides are suggesting, take it or leave it, take your time for emotional and mental grounding.

When you're trying to express yourself, make sure that you pause powerfully, allow yourself space to gather your thoughts, to arrange your ideas.

Also allow yourself emotional space as in making time for, if you have some negative emotion such as grief, frustrating, giving yourself time for expressing that in the right kind of safe environment for you.

But this week in particular it's making time because if you are rushing, you're actually ungrounding yourself mentally and emotionally.

That's why it's harder to focus when you feel rushed actually because you're ungrounded. You're moving against your nature. Slow down and take your time this week in particular.

By the way, we have other love letters called Pause Powerfully and Slow Down. I've done so many love letters over the last few years. So you can do YouTube searches just to check those out for a little bit more on those topics.

But I'm hearing the Oracle Cards for this week in particular calling out in the energy and let's see.

Who are we going to ... I'm hearing Goddess Guidance, another Doreen Virtue deck, one of 20 and counting. Thank you by the way for all of your wonderful gifts and donations. More than half the Oracle Card decks here at the Dojo have been donated. I am so grateful for all that love and abundance. Thank you. Thank you. Always open to receive.

So let's check this out. Goddesses, what do we need to know right now about emotional and mental grounding this week?

Oh! Abundancia, Prosperity. The universe is pouring its abundance out to you. Be open to receive.

Now I don't know if like the camera is backwards when you're looking at this, but this is such a powerful message to receive around emotional and mental grounding.

You have an abundance of time. There's always more. There's an infinite supply, right? Thinking abundantly helps you to relax.

Having an abundant mindset opens up your energy and connects you more to nature. Does a tree ever think twice about growing its leaf? No.

It just allows the abundance of air and chemicals to pass through it, and it continues producing, reproducing in that cosmic dance of life.

Abundance. Having an abundant mindset is so powerful for allowing yourself to feel more emotionally and mentally grounded.

So comment below on YouTube, Facebook. Send me a tweet on Twitter at @SenseiWhitfield if you want to holler at me over there.

Make sure that you subscribe at victoriawhitfield.com/freegift so that you get the rest of this series where we're almost there. We have one more to go. That way you'll actually get a free meditation where you can start grounding right now so why wait?

Get to work. Make sure you share this with someone that you feel could really benefit from this, okay?

We'll see you next week. Bye.
