What is Spirituality?
Spirituality is choosing to connect yourself with your understanding of God or universal source. It is not known by one name but is open to your own interpretation and ones comfort zone. It is not a religion, it is you discovering the sacred part of you that is connected to the bigger picture. We all are a part of Source. There is no separation in the spiritual world. All is one and the same within itself. No one is more special than the other. Spirituality is an ongoing journey. Just when you think you’ve got it, there is more to the story. This is what keeps it interesting! Spirituality is being open to sense, feel and learn though your own exploration and discovery. This journey begins with learning to be still and quiet. Within this quiet, you come into a space where you find your inner knowing. This inner knowing is called your higher self. This higher self is the connection to all spiritual knowledge and universal truths. It is intuitive based. It’s what feels right for you. It comes from within, not from without. Spirituality does not confine you to one belief system; it is open to all. It leaves you to form your own truths as you go through your own journey of discovery.Your Spirituality is a personal relationship between you and your God of understanding or Universal Source of Energy, however you choose to relate. We all have a connection to spirit. It is part of our inner self. Everyone gets a different answer that relates best to them. Knowing all roads lead back home to the universal source of all consciousness. It’s up to you as to how you chose to get there. Spirituality is always love based. Spirituality unites, it does not divide. Spirituality is compassionate to all. How do we begin this journey? Through learning to be still. To be able to sit in silence so you can connect to the universal source through prayer and meditation. This connection will guide you to your deepest truth. The more you practice, the more clarity you will get. This is where you will find the true meaning of love, grace, compassion, humility, gratitude, and more. You will be at peace with yourself, which gives you tremendous freedom!
The Dark Night Of The Soul
This month has been overwhelming and draining to say the least. I started to feel a sadness that I couldn’t put my finger on. I then realized that I was experiencing a great loss, a mourning of what I once knew the world to be. I realized I was experiencing the Dark Night Of The Soul again, but this time it was a total clearing of all that was left of my stuff and at the same time experiencing all that needs to be transformed on a global level if we are to survive. I would say we are all in some way individually and collectively going through this sadness and loss. We are collectively experiencing the process of The Dark Night Of The Soul. I call part of this process a stripping. A lot of people, places and things are being removed from our lives that are not serving the greater good of our personal development and our collective progress. What ever stands in the way of our growth and true calling. A cleansing is happening so a new way of life and understanding can take place. It’s a death of sorts of all things we knew as real. Our ideas and frame work that we have been used to live by are crumbling right before our eyes. This is a necessary process for our global family so that we may rebirth a new human society. This process can be very painful. I have gone through this before but when you get to the other side of it you are truly transformed. In order to get to the other side we must clear all of our stuff. It is also a global clearing and an awakening. We are being moved to the next stages of our souls growth individually and collectively. This is by far the biggest change that humanity has ever had to go through. So how does one get through this? 1. First of all BREATHE and practice the OM Sound. This helps with Anxiety. 2. Practice meditation and prayer We must stay connected to God, Spirit, Universal Power, what ever you relate to. Through this you will gain nourishment, love and strength. (If you resist meditation at least take time to be totally quiet. Walk in nature). 3. Ebb and Flow Move with it like a river - don’t resist and fight it. It will only make it harder. 4. Practice detachment with love. This was a big struggle for me for awhile. I was like how do you not be involved? You become the watcher the observer. Like watching a movie. You watch it but you are not in it. Be in the world not of the world. The watcher becomes the witness. Let the outcome come to you don’t create it. The universe will show us, then an aw-ha happens. When we participate in the drama we get emotional and try to control things to our point of view. This resistance doesn’t work. One has to let go of any and all attachments that one might have that hold each of us back. We need to be able to see and understand who we truly are as a person and as a people. 5. Let Go let God! We can’t control it. Spirit will guide us. We are to look at what we are being shown, recognize it and move through it. Be the watcher and know that spirit will handle it. We have to have TRUST and FAITH. So for now let’s close our eyes and visualize that we are sitting on a green lush mountain with a stream of fresh water running by us with beautiful color flowers bending with the wind. This picture is guiding us, telling us to let the energy move through. Stay in the presence of God, knowing that in oneness we can and will get through this. Come back to this visualization as needed. XOXO Jodi Stay Tuned: Look out for our Foundations 21 day challenge this will come soon. It will help you thru these feelings and experience too.

Holy Shift!
Well in a few short weeks the doors have flown wide open! With this past full moon I experienced a huge frequency shift again. Let me stop a moment and explain a frequency shift. To keep it very simple, Frequency is the speed in which energy is moving. At a certain speed comes a shift in thought because the frequency altered the picture. It’s like changing the channel on your TV or radio. New Program. If you pay attention you feel this physically and emotionally. You go woo - what just happened here! It’s just an adjustment. Assimilate it as best as possible. Breathe! Right now things are moving very fast. Much faster than I expected. This full moon at the beginning of June seems to have ushered in the Fourth Dimension. The 4th dimensional frequency is the destruction of things that no longer serve us and this planet. It prepares the earth like tilling the soil so that the process can start a rebuilding of a new earth and a new society. Anyone and anything that doesn’t serve the greater good will start to be swept away. This goes for each of us as well. We need to do a through house cleaning of our thoughts and attitudes. Boy, has this come to the surface! Clearing out any judgments. Externally the structures (institutions, states, countries) that do not support equality and peace will be broken down. Our lives as we have known it is gone. We have officially moved out of our 3rd dimensional thought and will not be returning to it again. What does remain is the ability to navigate the basic 3D things, Example -directions, shopping driving etc., but the way we look at the world has shifted. The 4th dimension has begun and will continue until we have leveled the playing field. To begin this we all witnessed our humanities deepest and rooted problem. Racism. The universe has shown us. This is the number one issue and the core of all of our problems. A Hatred for people that are not like ourselves. We have seen the up rise of white supremacy, which has been given poetic justice through our president and our police departments. Gun violence is out of control. I CAN’T BREATHE – is the motto right now! This has been brought to light by the assassination of GEORGE FLOYD and so many other black people in the past month. They all gave their lives to bring this truth to the world. Not only for the black communities but also for ALL people. We are all crying out for our true freedom and equal rights to live and breathe in peace. This new world is to be built for all of us, not just the privileged few. Male ego’s (not the men themselves) have been running the show for way to long. Dominate, Divide and Conquer is that thought process. At any cost! It is the exploitation of our planet and of all other races. Ego has no place in this new world. It is in the process of being canceled out. We are dealing with the universal energy force now and it is in full swing. It will remove all people places and things that do not bring enlightenment to the planet. We have entered the phase of the BREAK DOWN TO COME TO! The best thing to do is to be proactive in as many ways as possible while staying out of the way of this break down and restructuring. Do as much centering and meditation as you can. Be still and quiet so you can hear spirit, and follow your intuition at all times. Always come from compassion towards others. Listen, really listen. Help people to exhale. Yes, Breath! This storm is here, and there will be much destruction. This is what this frequency is designed to do. It levels the playing field so that a new world can be created. This frequency works individually and collectively. We as individuals have to clean up our thoughts and attitudes as well, so there is much change even in the best of situations. When this is finished a new way of life will start to begin. ALL PEOPLE GLOBALLY WIL BE FREE TO BE. The 5th dimension of peace will begin. I see the new world structure beginning within our towns, communities. We have to create groups to create policies that work for each community and municipality ( have it brought to the counties and cities to form and send to states. ) We are seeing the beginning of this with the Corona Virus. Here’s another I CAN’T BREATH! Government is relying on the states to create their own policies. These states will be conducive to what the people of that area value the most. If our values are not represented than we will create communities that do or we will relocate to a state that does or has the room to create it. If we can’t get along and there is a huge divide we will be going into a north and south divide so to speak. I see an east west divide. We will all have to learn to be respectful and accepting of each group and community. The motto here is Extend A Hand wherever needed. Get involved. Support and shop locally owned businesses so they can survive. Help them to Breath. So Important! Get to know the people that serve your community. Say thank you for being here. Makes a world of difference. Through these hard times we can make a difference just by having gratitude. A new world is ahead my friends. Every morning when we wake up let’s ask spirit to help us formulate a world of peace and acceptance. That’s all from Heda right now! With much love, Jodi
