It is with pleasure that I Wish You a Very Blessed Winter Solstice.
The shortest day of the year marks a change of the calendar year and a sign that the light will start to return. Slowly it grows a little lighter each day. In honor of this wonderful day I celebrate in prayer, say blessings of abundance and give thanks for the warm home and food I am so gratefully enjoying. I ate foods full of root vegetables and enjoyed a cup of tea to keep my spirits and body warm. Most important I honored this day by staying present and quietly going within to listen and feel.
This season is full of celebration, holidays, and lots of hustle and bustle. Truly what is needed is time daily to reserve, rest, and go within. Our shorter days are a great time to honor the personal time needed to get in touch with self. Quiet yourself and listen to your heart beat, the in and out of your breath. Listen long enough and you can here your inner voice speak. For some this voice is rarely heard over the never ending conversation, television, music, and thoughts of daily activities. Take time through out the longer winter nights and find yourself. Honor your spirit by learning things you may never have known about yourself- strengths, weakness, feelings that get shoved down when life gets too busy. This is a great time to heal and work on issues that get put on the back burner when the summer sun comes calling. Its also a time of year when lots of emotional issues are rising. Take the time to hear their call and find the source of the troubles. Heal, release, and grow.
Trees go within to preserve their life. Animals hibernate to do the same thing. Perhaps we can learn from our worldly friends and take steps to honor ourselves and grow with the ever increasing sunlight- slowly coming out of our shells as the season progresses into the new year.
Sending Blessings of Love & Light,
Leah

Love Writings
Have you ever given thought to how much you love your life?
How blessed you are to breathe?
How wonderful the sun feels on your skin when you walk outside in the fresh air?
I could list the wonderful things about life for days and it would still have no end. Feeling Gratitude for my life is what helps me stay centered in the Beauty and Grace that fills me. Gratitude is a simple way to honor the gifts that are brought into your life. Being humble and giving thanks brings perspective to how simple life can be or better yet how simply wonderful the little things in life are with each breath.
My health is one of the many things I show gratitude for daily. Nothing can go forward in my day if I'm ill as well as it can if my health is in perfect balance. This is my truth and I honor it more with each breath. Remaining centered, focused, and balanced in the flow moves Divinely when my physical body is healthy and well. Giving thanks for my health allows me to honor the Divine for the gift but also my body for all the functions it preforms every second without so much as a conscious thought on my part. Think of all that your body does for you each moment and think how much more it could do if you gave it better food, more water, and of course exercise and stretching. Starting with Gratitude helps move onto making healthy changes for the body.
My personal time with God in prayer and meditation is another important function I find myself not being able to live without and for this I also give thanks. Slowing down and sitting in quiet time with myself and God brings a greater perspective to how full and beautiful my life is at all moments. Having this time to honor, pray, and give thanks helps me focus on what really is needed. Allows me to solve issues that need my heart and minds attention. At the end of the day it allows for release and assists with that which needs to be handed over to the Divine for healing and treatment.
Creating a gratitude list, writing in a journal, taking time for prayer and meditation are all ways to start your love writings to God and to your Divine Self. It centers, it creates, it brings into the physical world things that you once took for granted. I find that by moving into Gratitude at least twice a day brings more of what I give thanks for into my life. It is as if I am weaving my web for the day and I start it by filling it with Grace for all I have been given and right before I lay my head down to sleep I complete my web for they day with one more silent gratitude list just to remind me how blessed I am wrapped up and surrounded in the Love and Light of God. The in-between time is mine to weave and create-the end points the guides for a brighter day and a more God-centered life.
Make a choice to start your lists and see what your heart and soul show you. You might be surprised at the things that come to mind that you are grateful for. You also might help create a peaceful time just for yourself. You might create a time for spiritual connection that you never considered. There is no better time of day to start this practice than right now. Hear the calling of your soul to move into a place of gratitude and do it with the Grace that is blessed upon you with ever breath. Smile, your light shines and this is one loving gift you give to the world that only requires a thought of happiness.
My person truth:
My path of service begins each day with Gratitude and my Breath. Each day ends the same.

Creative Force
Creativity can work in ways in your life that will help shift your mood, fix a problem that is long overdue, or just be an outlet for fun and play. Creativity is now more than ever an important tool to use in daily living. Everyone is creative- at times it may seem more task than natural gift but it does reside within you. Taping in to your creativity brings you in alignment with your Divine Self. It helps open the natural flow and free the left brain from adding too much thought into the task at hand. Freeing yourself to be creative can help manage stress and show you a peaceful place to rest. Creativity can also be about release- letting go in ways that haven't always been useful outlets in the past. Sometimes being creative in how you solve issues that continue to surface will allow you to see your problem differently and focus on a solution you may not have seen before.
Working with your Divine Self and allowing the creativity to flow helps to center. It helps to teach you to hear the inner voice and trust your Divine Self. Beauty, love, cherished solitude- all of these gifts come with setting aside time to act creatively through art, exercise, or meditation. The possibilities are endless when you utilize your creative side and set your soul free!
Touch your heart with a warmth of fancy free thinking and see what you can create.
With Much Love & Light,
Leah

The Gift
I want so much for each person to understand their true potential. To know that all is already given to those that are open to receive. I want people to know that inside their very being lives a seed of love that was gifted to them prior to their first breath. All they have to do is acknowledge this gift and the seed will grow and assist in the transformation of their lives.
I want you to know that you can reach the stars. You can create heaven on earth. Once the transformation starts all you have to do it continue to have faith. Continue to believe in yourself and the Divine Love that gives you life.
Once you achieve pulling back the old layers of loss, hatred, denial, self-serving behavior, and fear your path becomes brighter. Your days are filled with joy and happiness. You find that even when it seems the whole world would bring you down you still smile and move forward. This seed has grown into your soul and now it lifts you, fills you, and wraps you in a beauty of love that can only be felt with the tenderness of your heart.
You will see the way things were never served your purpose. You will see that while you may have been doing your best it wasn't what was truly intended for you. Now that you are on the path originally designed for you doors open, the sun shines, and birds sing. You find the strength to go on when you are faced with another mountain to climb because you can and because you know some of the best views in life are found standing at the top of the mountain.
I want to heal, I want to shine. I want to share my light. I am ready to teach and lead and help those that are ready to take their step forward.
What do you want? What does your soul wish for? Are they the same thing?
Awakening your spirit so you can tap into the Divine Source is a change of a lifetime.
Take the leap. You will only lose that which no longer serves you anyway.
Growth is beautiful. Rest when your tired, take a deep breath when it seems to be too much, and feed yourself with the love that you were gifted.
Namaste,
Leah

My seed has grown
I dreamt of a tree.
It was small and young.
My hands were pushing it's roots into the earth and praying for its safety and well-being. I was preforming Reiki on it as I held it's small trunk in my hands. I heard it smile and send loving thoughts to me as it absorbed the new soil it was now living in.
I recognized this tree as the newly planted loving vibrations that now resonate with my core being.
The tree lives inside me.
I can see my chakra column aligning with the trunk. My chakras glimering under its light brown bark.
I water it, feed it life and give it love when I take care of my physical and spiritual well-being. When I give it Reiki it expands and grows.
Its roots start at my feet and grow down into my earth star.
Its top branches reach my crown and then a light radiates at the top almost like a sun that never sets.
It has grown since I first saw it over a week ago.
It also has grown leaves. Green and in the shape of maple leaves.
I am excited to learn more from this tree and to watch it grow as it touches me.
Love & Light,
Leah

Transition and Completion
I stand inside myself witness to my own recreation.
I have completed a goal three years in the making this weekend and I feel in transition. My soul fills with an endless love which empties again only to fill once more. Like the tides I sense the change each time the energy recedes clearing space for newness, for the Divine Light. I am complete and whole yet new and untouched.
My cellular membranes are pacing and pulsating as the programs are rewired and the old destroyed to be taken out with the next tide break. The energy beats with my heart, at times fast and breath taking. I cry. I sob. I fill with immense gratitude at the beautiful gift that has been bestowed upon me. I laugh. I wander, staring into to space for limitless amounts of time as my DNA is reworked and restored. I am witness to my own healing. I am witness to my regeneration. I am witness to the beauty of love that fills every fiber of my being. I can see the light radiate off my skin into my multi-layered aura beaming out into the space I occupy. My ears hear a low hum as all the reprocessing creates not only a warmth but an actual sound that is constant. The flow, the energy flow has grown stronger and the connection more pure.
All is forgiven, all is forgotten. I no longer hold onto old concepts that no longer serve my highest light. I have been healed of old thought patterns that held me stationary in my attempts to grow. I have released old wounds that served only as excuses to inflict pain. I am now open and free from judgement, hearsay, gossip and social obligations. I now live to serve as a humble being that only has love to share and an acceptance for humanity in all its imperfection.
I have accepted my gifts with gratitude and welcome the incoming shift with bowed head and humble prayers of thanks. I could not be more lost and centered at the same time. I am facing the unknown with an open heart and a over joyed soul. Completing my studies to become the Divine Healing Being I have always wanted to be is a great honor and gift and I am grateful to share my progress with each of you.
Thank you dearest loving souls for your support and love. It has filled me with the most immense sense of gratitude that words cannot express. Know you are always in my prayers and in my heart.

Grace
God is within all of us.
I Am that I Am.
Knowing this concept and allowing it to take root, fill your life, and transform you takes dedication and faith that what is happening really is always for the better of all. Releasing judgement, self-centeredness and hatred are huge steps to allowing the seed of love to grow within you. Our culture has been breeding into us for a lifetime to do the above mentioned ad nauseam. All the tabloids, beauty magazines, and trashy newspapers fill our time with gossip, unrealistic concepts of beauty, and most importantly information that doesn't provide any importance except to perpetuate the negativity. Releasing the need to hear about the lives of others is one big step into stopping yourself from judging others. Removing yourself from the TV or discontinue reading beauty magazines will help stop the cycle of self-centeredness. Allowing the Grace of God to flow through your very being and heal old wounds and create new life patterns will help you to release anger and more importantly help you to avoid any feelings of hatred.
I have taken these steps to assist in my transformation. I have almost completely changed my whole life to sail in a different ocean than mainstream media and the general populations concepts of how life should be enjoyed. I'm happy I'm doing things differently and I'm also happy with how others do things. My prayers are for changing the world for the better. My prayers are for peace, love, a healing for Mother Earth, and a Divine Healing for all that live here and now. Our jobs as souls on this planet is to help welcome and manifest the new world. We have to make changes in our lives to allow this shift to happen. Honoring your calling is how you take your first step.
I love being fully surrounded by my sacred space in my home. I feel the pulse of the earth, I smell the scents on the wind and in my sacred oils. I know in my heart that Angels and Ascended Masters smile down and give thanks for my courage and sincerity as I hold sacred time for meditation and remain open for more information to flow. I have been doing some meditations from a great author read book called Channeling Grace by Caroline Myss. I love reading or listening to books that ring my bells so to speak. When I hear or see words written that describe the experiences or messages I have been receiving it is a great confirmation as to my connection with the Divine Mother/Father God, the Angels and Ascended Masters. Hearing Grace be described as Caroline views it and believes it to be helped to expand my understanding of how this Divine Love works for others. I had been finding it difficult the last few weeks to stay stationary and really focus my meditations. I would find myself falling asleep or receiving information which would distract my original intention which was to remain empty and just breathe. After finishing a guided meditation I realized I had just visited God. It is that simple. I had sat in the emptiness of my being, in a dark and totally silent place and held space with God. My experience was very sacred to me so I will keep that to myself but the outcome was one of total bliss. I wish this experience for everyone. I wish for you to quiet yourself and visit God. Really show yourself that you love this life and honor who and why you are here and give yourself the gift of God.
I realized that I had been visited by many Angels, many Ascended Masters, I've even had the honor of being in the presence of the Divine Christ Energy twice when I needed it most. I just never reached out and ask to be with God directly. As I said at the start, we all contain God within us. We all have our fill of this Divine love- how it flows from us and into us remains solely on how we utilize this love and allow it to fill our days. Requesting to be in the presence of God is not something you do on any special day or time. It only requires one thing- faith. Once it happens you will never be the same. I'm not. I can't ever go back to my vision of this life, world, or universe and not have that feeling of complete pure love for me and all that is and all that will ever be.
Change yourself for you. Change yourself because you can. Change yourself because you owe it to you to live the most fulfilling life you could ever imagine. All you need is faith and a moment to honor the seed God left in your heart the moment you were created into this universe. Light the fire and allow it to burn out all that isn't Divine by nature and watch yourself transform into the beautiful being that God has always held you to be.
I love each of you. I honor each of your paths and pray for your health, love and life- always.
Namaste,
Leah
