LOVE for Valentine’s and Beyond. . .

With Valentine’s in a few days, and it being one of the only days dedicated to LOVE in the whole year according to the Council of Love, I wanted to share a simple practise I’ve been doing.

Engaging with the growth patterns of the 4th dimension — truly getting that everything is not as it seems here — residing in the magic, wonder, awe, and everyday hope for us Gaians, knowing anything is possible; that all lack and limitation is cancelled out.

This is what I’ve been doing:

Every time I eat I like to “share” my food with everyone who doesn’t have enough to eat.

When I pause and feel the energy, and with my imagination heart feel and see everyone lifted up into sacred space with food and in the flow of Love, everything lightens up.

Inviting everyone to join with me

seeing we are all fed, no one is hungry,

remembering Who We Are, Gaian community.

Every day is Love Day,

as Suzanne Maresca says.

Discovery of Sacred Purpose

Hi, I’m Kathleen, owner of this website, Voice of Freedom, and also one of the editors of the Golden Age of Gaia. I wanted to share a little, in the video below, about my websites and discovery of sacred purpose, what I’ve been drawn to do in my spare time.

Before a few years ago I’d never have dreamed I’d become a volunteer helping women in recovery from addiction, mostly drug and alcohol addiction, but starting in 2018, after several years dedicated to meditation, I began driving once a week to spend time at a therapeutic community, John Volken Academy, about an hour from where I live.

At first I said I could teach the women to sew, and then I said I could organize haircuts and clothes – used, and then one weekend I was invited to a sweat lodge ceremony and an art show put on by Indigenous Elder.

Aveda Hair Salon, Vancouver

Wise Woman Alannah Atley’s Art Show

In the van on the way home from one of these outings I was asked if I could organize a visit to some horses, and maybe go to the theatre.

“Of course,” I said, and that led to me finding Wisteria Acres and Krista Brown’s therapeutic horses, and then reaching out for donated tickets to go to Theatre Under the Stars in Stanley Park.

Standing Up to Corruption Within/Without

Illustration by Kagan McLeod

Last spring, 2019, Canada’s then Minister of Justice, Attorney General, and Liberal party member, Jody Wilson-Raybould, stood up to corruption in Canadian politics.

Canada’s Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, and other senior officials attempted to pressure her to allow an engineering firm to take a new legal pathway to avoid criminal prosecution.

Later in August, our ethics commissioner ruled that Trudeau had broken the conflict-of-interest code, but Jody had already been fired from the Liberal Party.

In that same summer she became an Independent, and handily won a seat in parliament in our fall federal election, running on a platform of honesty and integrity.

Are we in a stage of our Ascension where we can see outward successes, such as this, because of the inner work we collectively are doing?

As we stand up to the corruption within, the self-judgements, guilt and control, anxiety and hatred, also our anger, fear, sorrow and shame, will we begin to see our external reality reflect this?

****

In her new book, Radical Compassion, Tara Brach speaks of emotional balance within here on SoundCloud — a way to live in the Now — not in fear of the future or sorrow from the past.

A highlight of her recent 10 Day Challenge with daily meditations, was her description of the “blame-game,” how when we fail to see our own triggers we’re actually lacking compassion for self, as well as for others.

She gave the example of a dog that lunges, teeth bared, when a friendly pat is extended, but upon realizing that the dog’s leg is in a trap, instantly we feel empathy, compassion.

How many of us have projected our angers and fears because we feel trapped?

With greater compassion, empathy for our human condition, Tara beautifully illustrated we can more easily find peace within, and without.

Sending Love daily to our fellow brothers and sisters, whether it’s for a personal reason or on a bigger scale, such as to the fires in Australia, issues in the Middle East, or the drug wars in Mexico and opioid crisis, we are helping create balance on Earth.

Reflecting the compassion of higher realms,

we are creating our Heaven to Earth,

as above, so below,

as within, so without.

In Addiction Recovery, a Matter of the Mind

“A hallmark of any person I’ve ever treated with addiction is that they’re very rarely in the Now. They’re either regretting the past and all their mistakes and really ruminating on that and dreading that, or they’re dreading the future, or just wanting a fix,” Witkiewitz says. “So what we’re doing is actually training them to be in the moment again, and to be OK with the stress.”

By Katelyn Newman, US News, January 29, 2020

Joe Fox’s drug of choice is alcohol. And while he says he’s previously tried programs such as Alcoholics Anonymous to help him stop drinking, the 37-year-old Atlanta resident says it wasn’t until he tried a treatment option tied to the psychological practice of mindfulness that he was able to put the bottle down.

“Mindfulness was for me … for lack of a better term, the ticket to putting this behind me,” says Fox, who celebrated one year of sobriety on Jan. 7.

After a month of detoxifying and living in rehabilitation housing, Fox says he spent two months receiving outpatient services at Centered Recovery in the Atlanta area, spending weekday mornings at the treatment center and participating in its meditation class on Saturdays.

“It was the meditation I learned there that really got me sort of past anything I could be taught in a classroom,” says Fox, who continues to meditate daily.

The Power of Visualization and Meditation for the “Very Dark” Opioid Situation

On the Government of Canada website under the title, Opioid-related Harms, more than 13,900 apparent opioid-related deaths occurred between January 2016 and June 2019 — that’s one every 2 hours.

In this BuzzFeed News post called, This Was The Decade Drug Overdoses Killed Nearly Half A Million Americans, author Dan Vergano, December 6, 2019, writes:

“Prince. Tom Petty. Philip Seymour Hoffman. Men and women, young and old, rich and poor. Maybe someone you knew or loved.

“All gone, among the 467,000 drug overdose deaths in the US counted so far this decade, with another 67,000 more that will likely be added to that staggering total when this year ends.

“The epidemic has overtaken both car crashes and gun violence as leading causes of deaths nationwide, and it now causes far more deaths every year than AIDS did at its peak.

“US drug overdose deaths in this decade exceed the number of battle deaths the country suffered in World War I and World War II combined.”

“Teaching a Man to Fish. . .” and the Universal Law of Balance

On December 11th, 2012, Archangel Michael spoke to me in a reading through channel, Linda Dillon, about Yeshua’s saying, “teaching a man to fish. . .” He said:

“There is too much greed within the third dimension and you see that everyday.

“There are those who are exceptionally wealthy, and there are those that are starving with no roof, no blanket, no bed, no food.

“But you say, ‘Well, that has need to be corrected.’

“Yes, of course, it does, but very often what happens is you say, ‘I will take care of you,’ not that, ‘I will give you a starting point and I will assist with the development of a project.’

A starting point — that project of peace and Love within? Archangel Michael went on to say:

“You have a saying that was – actually came from Yeshua – from the days of Yeshua about ‘teaching a man to fish rather than handing him a meal.’

“Now Yeshua fed the multitudes, time and time and time again, but he was also teaching them each and every meal.

“So you can say, ‘It is of Love for me to take care of my brothers and sisters. . . so there is no want anywhere’. . . but you are not promoting the ability to create, and co-create in that person.”

It is My Joy. . .

In childhood, like mostly everyone on this planet, I had challenges.

From these challenges I created small phrases:

“I’m on my own”

“I just wanna be alone”

“I don’t care”

From phrases such as these, I’ve been unconsciously, and subconsciously, creating my life.

Looking back, I can see now how they created havoc, but in the midst of the drama I had no idea; I was flummoxed as to why similar unloving situations would happen, over and over.

In the last week I’ve been doing Tara Brach’s Radical Compassion Challenge and her RAIN Meditation:

With understanding of the Universal Law of As Within So Without, like the ripples from drops into the ocean, the more of us anchoring in deep compassion, the better for everything, the climate included.

I Am Heart Consciousness

THE SCALES OF JUSTICE, OF WORTH AND OF THE UNIVERSE, IN BALANCE

I feel the more aware we are – I Am Heart Conscious – we understand the higher realms where we do no harm to anything, where we remember our Divinity, that place of no hierarchy.

Linda in Canberra wrote in about a movie, Earthlings, narrated by Joaquim Phoenix, that illustrates the terrible, horrific things we have done to animals and nature here.

I plan to watch it, trying to be really conscious, to take responsibility for what I have done to help create the old ways on this planet, saying the Hawaiian Ho’oponopono mantra:

“I’m so sorry. Forgive me. I Love you. Thank you.”

I feel this segment of the history of this planet, the horror and violence, the war and mayhem, is over when we are truly Love within and without.

Australia is Bracing for a Tsunami of Homeless Women. . .

Credit: thirdsector.com.au

The post (below) on homeless women in Australia was written on October 10th, 2019, World Homeless Day.

With the bushfires, what might the situation be like now?

I was walking down the street where I live yesterday and an older woman was begging for money.

Usually I see men, occasionally a woman with a man. This one was alone.

I stopped to give her the coins I had as St. Germaine and Archangel Michael have suggested we do – it’s not the amount of money that matters, it’s our intention to lift everyone up, to have a sacred space to call home – and used the Violet Flame to surround us as I gave her a hug.

Readers, if I’m seeing women on the street in Vancouver, what is it like in other places?

Veganism, Climate Emergency, and Lewis, the Koala: Some Thoughts on the Bushfire Crisis in Australia

Toni Doherty rescuing Lewis from the bushfires.

Author unknown, January 8, 2020 Ecovegan Spirit

I was moved to tears by this video and still am every time I remember it.

It shows a woman, Toni Doherty, in Australia rescuing a burned and distressed koala from the bushfires.

Sadly, that koala, who was later named Lewis, had to be put to sleep in a koala hospital due to the severity of his burns.

This is just one instance captured of the terrible desolation, panic, trauma, and suffering that the countless animals who have been caught in these fires endure before dying.
