Forgiveness Creates a Larger World

July 20th, 2026

Healing Messages 1.153 – Forgiveness Creates a Larger World

As I learn to forgive myself, I leave those issues behind.

I am freed to continue my life and to enlarge my view.

As I learn to forgive others, I am freed from my negative connection to them.

I can see both of us in a new light, or simply move on.

As I release myself from judging others, I make their burden a little lighter.

I give them room to take another breath, and with it, the possibility to receive a new, uplifting idea.

I grow attentive to what I am sharing with the world.

Am I repeating the same old story, or am I adding something new and uplifting?

I am grateful for the opportunity and the need to redirect my life.

I was not happy where it was going.

When I took responsibility for that direction, I realized that I could forgive the fact that I was following my programming.

I could discover what I love to do and do it.

I have done this, and life is so good now that I forgive everyone and every circumstance which created this need.

I am so glad I stepped up and did the work.

I kept displacing the memories of bad experiences from childhood with the joy of doing what I love.

I have created new ground for me to stand on.

I forgive myself the mistakes I have made along the way.

I am grateful that I keep trying new ideas and learning from them.

I am grateful I have learned to forgive misapprehensions of what I am doing.

We all learn as we go along our life-paths.

Not getting stuck by explaining myself gives me more freedom to add to my enlarged view.

I am grateful to forgive myself for the time it took to redirect and rewrite my life.

It is wonderful to move into a larger world where there is so much to explore.

Surge of Ideas

July 11th, 2026

Healing Messages 1.144 – Surge of Ideas

I don’t know what it is, but often I am filled with a divine surge of ideas.

I suppose it is because I began honoring the ideas which came to me many years ago.

I would get so excited by a teaching idea for my music students.

I would be so happy to receive an interpretation of a spiritual idea I was studying.

I would be so relieved to figure out how to insert a sample into a term paper.

After visiting a spiritual healer, I devised a system of index cards to write down my ideas.

I was elated to discover this.

It allowed me to organize them into categories without having to go back and copy them.

It made it so much easier to put them together in other forms to share.

This has continued as index cards have given way to notes in notebooks which I transcribe into their proper folders on my computer.

Some people have even more efficient systems with dictation and other apps.

I awake in the middle of the night filled with ideas which I cannot write down as fast as I receive them.

This is my prosperity, listening for ideas.

I transcribe them, draw them, write meditations for them, publish them, create ebooks for them.

There are so many ways to share what the Universe is giving me.

It all began from listening within and honoring the first ideas.

Step by tiny step I gained courage to express them.

It was so much fun to see my pre-school music students respond to an idea.

It filled me with so much peace to gain a realization of a spiritual idea.

I was so grateful to be able to present my term paper with clarity.

I am living in an abundant Universe.

I see examples of this everywhere in Nature.

I am grateful to be part of this abundance as it replaces the dread, fear, and limitations of the past.

Move yourself into a new context

July 10th, 2026

Healing Messages 1.143 – Move yourself into a new context

If things are not working for you, it is wise to consider moving yourself into a new context.

Your creative talents may not be appreciated.

You may face harsh criticism for your ideas, beliefs or practices.

You may be at a disadvantage economically.

Because the Universe loves you, there is a solution.

It exists in a different context.

You can move yourself there through inner listening.

An idea will come to you which addresses your issue.

It may be to continue your creative endeavors, but without talking about them until you find better surroundings.

It may be to be patient with other’s ideas, beliefs or practices, even while you continue your own commitments.

It may be to move yourself into a different economic setting.

As I continue to receive ideas and to take the tiny steps to carry them out, my creative eneavors take on concrete form in ways which reach those who will most benefit.

As I continue to listen within, my ideas, beliefs and practices find a ready audience in those who most appreciate them.

As I continue to listen within, I am given surprising resources to move where I can thrive economically even with no change in my income.

I am living in a new context.

I have placed myself where I can value my ideas inwardly and express them outwardly in a different way.

I am living separate and apart from those who criticized me harshly in the past without any idea of the issues I have been facing and healing.

I am living the most abundant and freeing life in a rich environment of unlimited resources.

The experiences which drive us inward are valuable because they place us where we can find what truly belongs to us.

We can express our abundant ideas freely, and with appreciation from others.

We can give ourselves permission to move into a new context.

Emotions Run the Body Run the Mind

June 25th, 2026

Healing Messages 1.127 – Emotions Run the Body Run the Mind

I got swept away by negative emotions this morning.

It has taken me quite a long time to get back to who I know I am.

I am grateful for the original tiny steps over many years which it took to get me here.

Each one is valuable.

They enable me to live on my new life’s foundation.

They allow me to clarify who I am and what I do each day.

This is totally different from my programming as a child, which I carried into adulthood.

Today’s negative emotions caused me to move into feelings from the past.

I knew I could not afford stay in that emotion.

So I wrenched myself out of it.

I began creating more order in my surroundings.

I knew I had to write, because this is part of my spiritual equilibrium.

To be who I am, I must draw on my inner Resources to create new work each day.

This keeps me in touch with the Universe Who Loves Me.

I am provided with uplifting messages as I turn away from the past and emerge into the present.

My new emotions run a different kind of body.

It is a healthy, calm, radiant, expressive, strong body.

My ability to be calm maintains my body in healthy ways.

I no longer deal with fatigue, dread, despair, rage or frustration and their effects.

My role is to honor my gifts from the Universe, to use them and to share them.

Mine is an expansive life.

There is always more beauty, truth, happiness, delight and wholeness to express.

I align myself with this expression, and I keep my focus on them.

What is happening with anyone else does not run my emotions.

Delay (trigger warning)

June 20th, 2026

Healing Messages 1.122 – Delay (trigger warning)

You may feel that it is taking a long time for you to discover your purpose in life.

It would have felt better to know what it is and get on with activating it.

There is no way I would have been remotely prepared for my life purpose if it had happened any sooner.

I needed all the preparation through all the challenges I faced in order to be able to be useful.

I am here to help women heal from trauma.

I had to heal from my own trauma.

I had to develop the strength to face the issues which enveloped me.

I had to be able to deal with multiple issues and meet mulitple demands all at the same time.

I had to be able to find my way through all the mental and emotional confusion.

Each issue was dealt with tiny step-by-tiny step.

My timid and reluctant steps were compelled by the divine path I signed up for.

I had no idea my experiences would feel so devastating.

I definitely had a choice.

To me, however, there was no alternative.

I had to move forward into healing.

I was given the resources to traverse the darkness and despair.

I was given the encouragement to move upward into light.

I was given the necessity to solve the problems of sexual abuse.

Too many of us have been faced with this situation.

There is a way to live which removes the dire effects of shame and helplessness.

It is to immerse yourself in the Divine.

I discovered the Divine through inner listening.

It was like a rope of hope flung to me across a turbulent sea.

I clung to it with all my might and handhold by handhold I was able to move into the light.

Reality

May 27th, 2026

Healing Messages 1.98 – Reality

Our reality is defined by what is important to us.

We create a connection to what is important to us through how much time we focus on it.

We can change our focus and change our reality.

This is a welcome fact.

Focusing on the best possible life begins to bring it into our reality.

Removing the collection of thoughts which has created our present reality allows us to replace them with better ones.

The better thoughts begin to show up as a better life.

Once we get this process started, our well-being increases.

We may find our course correcting itself many times as we strive to create a better reality.

Knowing we can do this is the first step. It gives us hope when we are in despair.

It removes the first layer of depression and helplessness.

Reality is not so thick that we cannot think our way into a different one.

We gain momentum as we replace one thought with a better one.

I was so deeply depressed for years that it was an immense struggle to get out of it.

My prayer sounded like “Show me! Show me! Show me!”.

I was journaling my thoughts so I could see what was going on in my head.

I had been so focused on everything and eveyone else that I had not nurtured myself.

It was a real shift for me to discover the reality of taking care of myself first.

I began to have hope as I gave myself permission to discover what I love and to do it.

The overwhelming habit of trying to take care of other issues was gradually lifted.

I realized it was all right to take care of even a little thing that I could do.

I did not have to address the whole miasma of world problems.

This shifted my view and changed my course.

I have taken many tiny steps over a long period of time to create my new uplifting reality, and I am enjoying a much better life.

Self-sufficiency in Spirit

May 15th, 2026

Healing Messages 1.87 – Self-sufficiency in Spirit

Whenever I need to know something, I have come to trust doing it in Spirit.

There are so many things to know, and I cannot be sure I can know them all.

I have chosen to listen within and to be led to what I need to know.

This is proving to be a much faster and a more trustworthy way to find things out.

The peace of inner listening shuts out all the noise of so many competing opinions, memories and experiences.

The calm idea is the one we notice.

It comes to us wherever we are, in the middle of chaos or at any time of day or night.

It overrides disappointment, circumvents the need to “know somebody”, and aligns with whatever is needed in a timely manner.

It gives me security to know that I have access to one calm idea.

I love the feeling of connection to Spirit.

I am able to get calm, and to think clearly.

I am put in contact with the ideas which are most relevant to me.

This may happen immediately, or it may take place more gradually.

I have come to find that it is a sure thing.

Any fear of interruption is disproven by the ability to listen within.

The next tiny step appears, is guided and taken.

Our Higher Self is always in communion with Spirit.

Our sufficiency is always provided by Spirit.

We stay active in awareness as we maintain our dedication and commitment.

We take care of our daily needs in full appreciation of our divine relationship.

We resume our devotion as we return to inner listening.

Our greater peace gets things done without tension.

Our true, deep needs are supplied by our spiritual connection.

Purity in consciousness removes us from judging

May 14th, 2026

Healing Messages 1.86 – Purity in consciousness removes us from judging

When we realize we want to live an uplifting life, we must be kind to ourselves and to others.

We must look for what is good.

As we become conscious of what is good, we want to practice it.

Everyone is dealing with various circumstances and sometimes they are very challenging.

We are not in a position to know what they are, so we have no right to judge.

I began to be more conscious of my thoughts about myself and others, and to stop judging.

I discovered other ways I could uplift my thought and to be more appreciative and respectful.

I became more respectul of situations which, although they did not make sense, upset me.

I began telling myself, “It is perfectly understandable”, even when I did not understand.

That took the pressure off me and slowed down my panic attacks.

I knew that others did not know me or what was going on in my life, so they couldn’t judge me.

Over time, this led me to stop judging myself.

I amassed a large spiritual vocabulary of qualities I wanted to express.

These began replacing criticism and judgement.

I realized I could add to good by assigning spiritual qualities to others, as well.

I became much more compassionate.

I got in conversations with strangers and learned about their lives.

Their unselfish nature and actions were amazing.

There were many stories of caring for young people who were lost and drifting.

They created stability and those young people were able to grow up safe.

People were involved in their local communities and were making significant changes.

They were putting their lives on the line for others.

There were many times I received help in unexpected ways.

I was able to contribute to others as I became aware of them.

I gained more self-respect through my conscious awareness and action.

When your healing takes you into a new world

May 9th, 2026

Healing Messages 1.81 – When your healing takes you into a new world.

My healing was not fast.

It required that I go deep in order to address the issues which kept me in a pit of despair.

As I gained a small hold on something better, I was able to move myself upward and out.

This happened over and over again, and required practice in order for me to maintain my hold.

Over the decades, (and yours does not have to take that long), I was able to refine certain practices which I will share with you.

A deep listening breath, and many, many tiny steps created my new foundation and allowed me to overcome severe negative programming.

In fact, it did not just raise me up to the level of a normal, manageable life.

It kept going until I caught on to a much more powerful influence.

I was able to discover the powerful statement that “I love me”.

I was able to discover what I love to do and to give myself permission to do it.

This kept breaking the hold of limiting negative programming.

I explored everything that I loved that interested me.

I gained so much happiness.

Even the lingering brutal effects of abuse got so diluted over time, that I was able to trust myself in completely new surroundings.

Building trust required a completely new set of experiences.

I drew them toward me, proving the destruction of lingering negative influences.

I even changed geographical locations which allowed me to gain new experiences with no previous associations.

My freedom and happiness kept expanding.

I actually feel entirely safe now.

I continue to work from a deep breath, inner listening, and tiny steps.

I have discovered there are no limitations.

I am living in a new world which keeps expanding into more and more happiness.

I know there is room for you here, too.

The Environment of Respect and Dignity and Love

May 5th, 2026

Healing Messages 1.77 The Environment of Respect and Dignity and Love

We create our own environment of respect and dignity and love.

When we give ourselves permission to do what we love, we recognize who we are.

As we take our tiny steps to begin, we treat ourselves with respect.

Our alignment with what we love gives us grace and dignity.

We are not stretched out of shape trying to make something else happen.

We are unified in our desire and action.

Each tiny step we take solidifies our new identity.

We become accustomed to a new view and to being viewed completely differently.

It may take a change in geogrpahic location as well as an internal shift.

It is such a relief to create such an uplifting and supportive environment.

I feel so unified and aligned each day as I anticipate my work.

I feel so seen and appreciated in my social groups.

The unfamiliar territory of discovering what I love and doing it, has reshaped my existence.

It is so natural to follow my intuition.

It is so easy to respond to the beautiful surroundings I now live in.

Coming up from such a deep pit of despair and depression has made me deeply appreciate my new status of happiness.

It turns out that it is possible to create this for oneself.

The more gratitude I have for each tiny step, the more confident I am about the next one.

The most challenging step was the willingness to become visible.

Instead of the past negative programming which I dreaded, my new foundation draws those to me who see me in a positive way.

I share the inspiration which led me step by step to my present situation.

To those who are suffering from negative programming, this is an oasis.

I receive daily confirmation of my new uplifting status.

I am so grateful that my work for myself is able to help others.
