The Sacredness of Silence

What happens when we are quiet? How is it that we become acutely aware of the messages around us in the absence of noise? What is it that affords us the ability to hear the truth- to recognize Spirit’s voice?

A quiet mind is a beautiful thing. It is a reality unlike any other. It is a place where our dreams live and endless creative opportunities abound. It is the meeting place where we, the co-creator of our life, connect with Spirit to design every aspect of our existence.

How is it that nothingness can give birth to somethingness? How can we make something out of nothing? How do answers arise out of quiet?

The universe is alive within us. It is our awareness of this truth that activates the creative influences that are around us. When we acknowledge our oneness, we realize that anything our heart desires can manifest in physical reality. Anything is possible with Spirit’s light and guidance.

Quiet affords us the power to know the truth.

When a door is locked, there is always another way to get in. There is always a back door. When the answer is “no”, there is always a “yes” somewhere behind it. We may not be able to see it at first; it may be hidden behind a long line of “nos.” But, it is there just the same. It is real- a spiritual possibility in the process of becoming a reality. As long as we believe it exists, it exists.

Where there is a will, there is a way.” When we trust our infinite wisdom to always guide us to Good, “The Way” is made for us. When we make ourselves quiet, our answers arise and make themselves known.

Noise is only fear in disguise. When we become quiet, when we silence the doubt and judgement, anxiety and frustration, resentment and anger, we eliminate the distractions that are blocking the knowing of truth. We can see beyond illusion, beyond the surface of physical reality to the heart of the truth.

Quiet orders our life. It enables us to differentiate truth from illusion. It gives us the power and inner-vision we need to see where we are going- to know we are walking in the direction of our dreams. Quiet is where we find the answers to our questions. Quiet is where we discover the true meaning of our physical circumstances. Quiet is where Spirit lives.

Listening to the Whisper of Truth

Spiritual messages are wherever we are. Every moment of every day, they are within our reach. They tell us whether or not we are walking in the right direction. They tell us whether or not we are at peace or in noise. They tell us whether or not we are honoring our truths. They tell us everything we need to know.

But, are we really listening? Are we ready to hear the stories the universe is telling us. Or is fear standing in the way, preventing us from knowing the truth?

There is only one way to recognize a whisper. We must be quiet enough to hear it. We must eliminate every noise-producing thing in our head in order to know the answer our soul is holding.

Aligning ourselves with Spirit is the only way we can understand what the universe is trying to tell us. Being quiet is the only way to recognize the whisper of truth- the spiritual messages that are all around us.

When we make ourselves quiet, we become one with the energy of limitless possibilities. The things we desire to know and decisions we need to make become clear to us; there is no noise to compromise the knowing of truth.

When we make ourselves quiet, we can see what we need to see and hear what we need to hear. We are aware that Spirit is speaking to us. We understand that when answers suddenly appear out of nowhere, they are to be accepted, not analyzed. We appreciate that they are Divine.

In quiet, the whisper becomes audible; we hear our heart speaking to us. As we walk the path of Truth, we recognize spiritual guidance. We are able to identify and trust the messages that are finding us every step of the way. We feel peaceful knowing that we are headed in the right direction. We feel at ease, knowing we are never alone. We realize that we are continually being guided to Good.

Our answers live within each and every one of us. When we are ready to know them, they will surface in the physical world. Our heart is always telling us the truth. Our soul is always guiding us in the right direction. Let go of the doubts. Let go of the resentments. Let go of the past; let go of the noise.

Breathe. Be quiet. Listen. Recognize the whisper.

Attracting Abundance

In order to attract abundance, you must BELIEVE that what you desire to own is already here. You must put yourself in the flow of all good things, so they can find you. Your thoughts must reflect your desire to attract GOOD. Your actions must support those thoughts. And you must know, wholeheartedly and without a doubt, that you already live an abundant life.

The universe is your creative partner. It will create whatever reality you intend to create. But, it can only create a reality you completely believe in. It can only design your life from whatever energy you are presently holding.

Living in abundance means that, no matter what your world looks like, you must think of it as being abundant NOW.

Starting with yourself, focus on the abundance you already own. Focus on your wholeness- all the gifts that are within you. The light that shines from your soul is abundance in its purest form- unlimited, ever-present wealth that is always available to you.

Embrace it with gratitude.

Give yourself all the things you share with the world. Give yourself peace. Give yourself patience. Give yourself acceptance. Give yourself respect, compassion and kindness. Give yourself unconditional love. By giving light to yourself, you are creating abundance. You are making yourself a “magnet” for the very things you desire to attract: good health, happiness, well-being… And as you are giving good things to yourself, always remember that you DESERVE them.

Now, shift your focus to all the wonderful, supportive, loving people who are always here for you. Think about the love they give you. Think about the wonderful times you share- all the fun you have. Think about how each of these people has contributed to your well-being- what BLESSINGS they are to you. This is abundance.

Life is filled with good things. Embrace all the things in your life that make you feel good. Focus on everything in your world that uplifts you and aligns you with GOOD.

Appreciate every good thing you have in your life.

Live in the present moment. Live in the energy of endless opportunities and limitless possibilities. Love your life, knowing how much life loves you.

Dancing With The Winds of Change

I was looking out my window the other day, watching our mountain ash tree dance in the winter wind. Snow was blowing in all directions, but the tree didn’t mind. In fact, it seemed to be celebrating the storm. It’s branches were moving with the wind, not against it. Every time the wind blew, the tree moved in the same direction. Then the snow stopped blowing. The sky cleared, and everything was still again.


As I studied the scene outside my window, my Guides whispered to me. They reminded me that during times of change, we too must bend with the wind. As the winds blow, we must dance with them. But first, we must stand still in the storm while it is roaring all around us, trusting that the noise we hear is really beautiful music in disguise.


Change is necessary. The winds blow to force us into releasing whatever old things we are holding onto- thoughts and jobs and relationships that no longer serve us. During the storm, anything that isn’t strong enough to stand gets swept away to make room for new and beautiful things- to make room for a new life.


How do we get through these challenging times? We take a deep breath and hold each other’s hands during the storm. We walk through it together. We offer kindness and compassion and unconditional love to every single soul we meet while we our walking our paths. We remind ourselves that we are not alone. We approach each new day as an opportunity to be a better soul. We remember to take care of ourselves- to love ourselves and each other. We remind ourselves to be who we really are.
