FUN

Okay - it has been a while - maybe I have been a little BLOG shy - but why write when you have nothing to share - that is what I feel.... ;-) (And yes, I do have something to share today) .

It is all about FUN....recently as I have been talking to many many clients I have realised how much their spiritual quest or journey has had the fun removed from it. Who ever said it had to be that way? Do you think that is what it is meant to be like. I remember myself thinking this - sat in meditation circles - feeling slightly bored and irritated but thought I have to do this in order to open up that box that has my spiritual gifts and knowledge in it. Okay - it worked to a certain extent, but I have no doubt in my heart and soul that it worked almost despite this and not inspite this. It also probably in some way delayed my spiritual awakening and sense of connection to myself because on one level it didn't seem like fun.

Indeed - there should be regular practice of some sort - discipline for want of a better word. BUT when it is not fun there really is little value in pursuing the activity. I am not talking about resitance because that is something totally different - it is simply when you feel no FUN. You know when you feel that your energy is being zapped, when you feel bored, when you feel like you are simply going through the motions, when not doing the activity is like having won the lottery because you can do something more FUN instead. Resistance on the other hand is when you are slipping into fear - and allowing that to win - when you are avoiding that which will move you forward.

What you do, who you spend time with, what you eat, or watch on TV (note - why watch things that fill you with doom and gloom - it really is a no brainer when you think of it in that way) should be FUN. You should be consciously creating FUN aka JOY in your life and things that are not giving you this FUN/JOY or stop giving it to you should be changed or removed.

The same applies when you are looking to make a decision, however big or small - if it leaves your head spinning and it is not a good place to be - then this is not something you want to cultivate and nurture. The law of the universe is simple - like attracts like - let yourself get muddled - and flit from one thing to another and all you get is more of the same. It is not the outcome of the decision that is often important - because you can do whatever you set your heart and soul to do - it is how you arrive at that point that is important. If making a decision has not FUN in it for you then I would question why you are even thinking about it - let it go and find something else fun to do. It is through FUN that you will find liberation and through FUN you will find solutions and insights.

Fun is your Spirit coming out to play - and let;s not forget that is part of the journey that you are no doubt on - how to connect deeper with your own spirit - well have FUN!

There are no prizes to be one for those who have created the most arduous, difficult path to spiritual enlightenment - and because of this I know which path I will always take - the FUN one...

If you have read this today - trust this was meant for you...so go on I cosmically challenge you to go and have some fun NOW!!!

(Have I used the word FUN enough yet?)

more learning!

Keeping with this flow of getting to know ones self and working with your own flow....I have had yet another magnificent learning curve this weekend. Since as far back as I can remember I have always had a strong level of intuitive insight. Like most intuitives before they accept this part of who they are, I would ignore the impulses. Over the years I have spent time and money cultivating this gift - but in all honesty I have not always listened to it when it came to things involving me. Hmm not proud of that admission - but it was that way so I could change it and learn to fully accept an honour each part of me.

I would say 95% of the time at least I ended up regretting not following my intuitive impulses. Not to say I always ignore my intuitive impulses but sometimes when it comes to me - I seem to do the opposite of what I am feeling. Partly because I am stubborn but mostly because I wanted to believe in something better and have until today, had connections with the 'martyr' and 'saviour' archetypes. Naive...? A dreamer? A sucker for punishment more like!

Well - people are good, but sometimes when you are trying to take things or situations into your own hands, when they are not yours to take and when you are going against your inner knowing - you can fall flat on your face! What was right yesterday may not feel right tomorrow - this is how it works and constantly each of us has the ability to adapt move on and go with a flow. Instead we hold fear, sentiment, hurt, guilt, insecurity and other self-harming traits and ignore the fact that we always knew what to do.

It is better to accept what you know and feel, rather than ignore it and then you can move on or not get yourself into situations with people which are sometimes jarring and un-enlightening. Basically another's truth is not a reason to doubt your own self - sometimes it is okay to walk away...clear off even! Ignoring your own intuitive impulses is not noble - it is a sacrifice. You sacrifice your own truth and and your own being - it is as good as being ignored, but worse you are almost ignoring yourself. Not nice!

Life is about joy, it is about being able to follow your dream and not getting caught up in trying to prove yourself wrong all the time. The reality is no one, not me, you or any other person can save anyone else. You can if you are lucky be an inspiration, but there is no saviour role. The same applies to this notion many people have of saving ones self. From what...? I am not talking here about physical danger as that goes without saying, but in the more etheric sense.

I always remember something I once heard Caroline Myss say about finding someone in there darkest hour. She said something like get your jacket and run! I always thought that was so harsh, but now I understand what she meant. It is not about abandoning anyone, it is about letting people go through what they need to without getting involved and without sacrifcing what you know the right thingfor you to be. You can be there without becoming part of it. Sometimes you have to just run away too! You will know what to do if you are connecting to your inner knowing!

I experienced both aspects of what I have written about here this weekend and I am so grateful because I learnt something so important. Although I still feel the pain of growth (everything just needs to catch up - body, mind, spirit and emotions)- I know this week is going to be much lighter as I have reclaimed or re-activated part of my true essence and that as you know can only be a good thing! It is true, life just gets better and better ;-)

Until next time, much love to you....

getting to know yourself

With all the recent energy fluxes and cosmic twists one of the greatest lessons I have learnt is about my own flow. Often I used to find myself flowing according to a rhythm that I thought I ought to be in - or to something I was forcing myself to do. Simply put, it is an act of being unconscious.

How many times do you read a book that inspires you and then you try and follow it verbatim? Can you do it? It is like following a diet created by someone else....it worked for them but that doesn't mean it will work for you.

The thing is to follow your own signals and signs.... you can only do this when you are aware of your own needs. Your own likes and dislikes. When is the right time to do something or not. It is about your own divine timing. It is a brave step when you stop being a sheep and become your own power source. Your own lead! Easy as it seems to say this, and I bet you are even perhaps nodding your head in agreement - the act of living by this principle is more difficult. It is almost like you are going to stand out and you know what else might happen...?. You might shine! Yes, you may well become what you were intended to - you may become your true divine self. By this I mean the happy, satisfied, the abundant, the loving you....you know what I mean here.

I encourage you to look at understanding your own flow....when does your body want to eat for example, or sleep? Have some 'you time..?' The benefits of understanding yourself are so great - imagine this situation....if you do not know your own flow and your own needs, how can someone else be expected to know them...? Your inner world and by this I also mean the relationship you have with yourself is reflected in your outer world experiences. You may think life forces you to take certain actions and make certain decisions - all of this is about sacrificing your true self and your life vision.

It is not necessarily drastic change that brings you closer to joy - sometimes it is the combination of small and seemingly insignificant steps that make a momentum of change. As you look at your flow - I cosmically challenge you to make a simple change to your life.... I would love to hear what it is....

Much love,

April's Meditation

Welcome to the Heavenly Spaces blog if this is your first visit. I will put information here regularly and share my meditations, channellings as well as the musings from my mind.

Remember before you meditate..make sure you will not be disturbed, turn the mobile off too!. If you like you can play soft uplifting music and light a candle (safety is important). Make sure you are comfortable, do not let meditation/visualisation resistance from the ego stop you from having the experience that you need.

This month's theme is JOY - and this meditation has been channelled from my guides and will help you to connect to the frequency of joy and invite it to be more visible in your life. I hope you enjoy it. Please feel free to leave feedback/comments about it.

"Welcome, find yourself sitting peacefully. Focussing on your own breath. Tuning into the rhythm of your breathing. In and out, gently. Each in breath as you quieten the mind can in take more light, be it white or be it golden. So affirm to yourself that your in breath is taking in more light, each out breath is releasing the things that do not serve you. So practice this breathing now. Do not allow your mind to wander. Let your focus always and smoothly return to your breathing. Each breath in is making you lighter and lighter, as you are releasing more and more of what is not needed for your highest purpose. Do not be fearful as you will release only that which you are ready to release. Excellent. Keep doing this for a few moments. You can do this practice in itself everyday, as a breathing ritual helps you to connect with your inner world and helps you to bring more light into your life. The light has encoded in it the frequency of joy as well as love, peace, beauty and abundance and much more. So to take up this practice for a few moments of your time will serve you to be clearer and lighter.

Feeling lighter and clearer now, see yourself standing at doorway. As you step in it is a great big auditorium, where you are the only audience. As you sit on a chair a big screen comes down. See this happening now with your inner eye. Imagine it, create it. As the screen is down, you are being shown a scene from your life, a scene where you are not finding the actions to bring you closer to joy. Perhaps you are resiting, perhaps you are not being truthful as to who you are, perhaps you are coming from a place of fear. Each time you do this process the understanding and the scene will be different, worry not that it is not correct. The need to be correct also comes from a place of fear. See this journey as a journey fro which you will grow and be joy.

As this scene unfolds and even repeats itself, notice that next to you is a great presence of light. This light is your higher-self. Your wise and all knowing aspect. Ask your higher-self these 3 questions:

1. What can I do to bring more joy to this situation?
2. What do I need to release in order to bring more joy to this situation?
3. How can I bring more joy to my life in general?

Listen and feel for the answers, each time they will change for you do not have one way or one thing that will bring you to joy. It is in the very nature of man to not take action when it is being offered, so we say take this action. See your results, see how you can create the joy in all areas of your life. How you can inspire and create joy across the planet.

Allow these images to fade, now and return back to the door. As you step back feel yourself back in your body, focus back on your breathing. Letting it take a natural rhythm, where it flows in and out. Feel the room that you are in, and feel yourself energised, feel yourself more joyous and ready to have a joyous day.

We leave you in peace and we leave you with joy."
