Breaking Free from Core Issues

Lately, many people have been experiencing strong emotions rising to the surface. These emotions can feel intense and sometimes overwhelming, but they’re often not just about what’s happening right now—they’re connected to deeper layers within us.

These emotional responses are frequently tied to old wounds from different time frames in our lives. Something in your current life may be triggering an experience from childhood, young adulthood, or another time when something wasn’t fully worked through. When that happens, the emotional charge from the past can rise up as if it’s happening all over again.

Some people feel like these emotions are bursting out, while others feel a strong need to release them through crying, movement, or other forms of expression. While this process can be uncomfortable, it’s also a sign that something is ready to be cleared.

Emotions aren’t always entirely our own. They can also be inherited. You may be feeling something that connects not only to your current experience, but also to your past, your ancestry, or even another lifetime. Because of this, a single emotional trigger can have multiple layers.

This is why it’s so helpful to identify where something is coming from. Is it yours from this lifetime? Is it connected to something earlier in your life? An ancestral pattern? Simply asking these questions can begin to shift the experience.

Letting Go, Opening Up, and Moving Into a New Way of Being

I’ve been noticing that we’re continuing to dig deeper and let go of things that are no longer serving us. At the same time, things are starting to show up in our environment in a bigger way to help us work things through. There’s plenty happening—both collectively and personally—that can trigger us. And whatever our core issue is, we can be sure it will surface so we can see how we respond.

There is still some divisiveness in the world, although I do feel it is lessening. Even so, it can still be triggering—especially when we encounter someone who only sees things one way and has no interest in another perspective. If that happens to be one of our triggers, we might react in ways that show us we’re not finished with that issue yet. We may get upset, shut down, or respond in ways that aren’t ideal.

For me, I like to feel neutral. When I can reach a place of neutrality, I know I’ve completed that issue. And usually, it won’t come back with any emotional charge—or if it does, it doesn’t affect me the same way.

So how do we get there?

A lot of it begins with intention—simply asking to let the issue go. Often, what truly clears it is a new perception. Acting like we know nothing can be incredibly powerful. Approaching life with a beginner’s mind—where everything feels new—helps release old patterns. It certainly has for me.

There have been many times when I’ve consciously stepped into that space, asking that whatever belief or perception is causing the trigger be released, and that I be shown a brand-new way of seeing things. Sometimes that new perspective doesn’t come right away. It may arrive as an “aha” moment—a peak experience—where suddenly something shifts. I might see a hidden gift or talent within myself, or recognize something that no longer serves me, whether it came from my own life, my ancestry, or even other lifetimes.

As we let go of these old perceptions, we often find that when similar situations arise again, we respond differently. We’ve moved beyond the old pattern. That’s the goal.

And as we release what no longer serves us, we naturally begin to bring in the new. Again, it comes back to that beginner’s mind—being open, empty, and receptive. When we reach that open state, new experiences and possibilities can flow in—often in ways we couldn’t have imagined.

We’ve talked before about surrender—about handing things over to your Higher Self. It’s like letting go of the steering wheel and allowing something greater to guide you. I remember when I was about 17 years old, I nearly drove into oncoming traffic, and something took over and moved the car safely aside. That feeling of being guided has stayed with me.

When we release control and let go of old ways of doing things, something new can enter. It might be a new relationship, a new opportunity, or a shift within existing relationships. Sometimes even long-standing family issues resolve because an old belief that was holding everything in place has finally been released.

I’ve also noticed that as I’ve let go of old “heart walls”—those beliefs that create barriers in our energy field—I feel completely different. These walls can keep new things from coming in and prevent old things from leaving. When they dissolve, everything shifts.

Recently, while on vacation, I felt this in a very tangible way. Watching birds along the shore, I felt a deeper connection than I ever had before. The beauty of the ocean touched me in a new way. Seeing dogs running joyfully in and out of the water filled me with a sense of happiness I could actually feel in my body. Those experiences were different because those old walls were no longer in the way.

This is why it’s so important to continue letting go. And it’s rarely a one-time process. We release something, step into a new level of openness, and then—over time—even those newer beliefs can become outdated. We are always evolving.

And this is exactly how it fits into what many of us are calling New Earth.

New Earth isn’t something separate from us or somewhere we eventually arrive—it’s something we move into as we let go of the old patterns, the old beliefs, and the old ways of responding that were rooted in separation, fear, and division. Every time we release a trigger, every time we shift into neutrality, every time we choose openness over reaction, we are aligning with that new energy.

If we can stay open, maintaining that beginner’s mind, we allow ourselves to continuously release what no longer serves us—even beliefs that once helped us. We begin to live with a fresh perspective, a renewed connection to nature, to others, and to ourselves.

We are living in incredibly exciting times—times unlike any we’ve experienced before. There are beautiful energies available to us now that support releasing divisiveness, both within and around us, and moving into a more uplifting way of being.

Even when we don’t agree with others, we can become curious. We can listen, explore different viewpoints, and expand our understanding. I’ve always enjoyed exploring different belief systems—it reminds me how much there is to learn, to experience, and to discover.

As we move into this New Earth energy, we may find ourselves naturally drawn to connection—connection with others, with nature, and with that childlike sense of wonder. It becomes less about being right and more about being open.

We can imagine ourselves walking up a stairway into this new energy—or simply recognize that we are already there. This beautiful, mystical energy is available to us now. And as we continue letting go of old beliefs and dissolving those heart walls, we deepen into it.

Each time something new arises that no longer serves us, we release it. Each time an old belief surfaces, we let it go. And in doing so, we move more fully into a space of joy, openness, and interconnection—experiencing life, and each other, in a whole new way.

 Your Wisest Ally

You have a wise ally who knows you inside and out—one who can support you like no other. This ally is your Higher Self.

Your Higher Self holds more insight about you than any spirit guide ever could. Vast and powerful, it carries the full spectrum of your soul’s knowledge: your past lives, your simultaneous or parallel lives, your ancestral history, and how your personal journey integrates with the larger cosmos. In many ways, you can think of your Higher Self as your personal Akashic Records—because all of that information is stored within its expansive intelligence.

 Portals of Light for Ascension

We have been going through a deep, transformational shift on Earth for some time. It is now accelerating as humanity enters a new era.

To support this evolution, portals of light are opening to advanced dimensions. These portals usher in high-vibrational light and spirit guides to assist us. Remarkably, some of these guides are versions of ourselves from parallel or simultaneous lifetimes—meaning you can be your own spirit guide.

Uprooting Trauma

We have all experienced some form of trauma that keeps us from optimally moving forward in life. These experiences can be anything from verbal attacks, put downs, and mental and emotional manipulation, to physical or sexual abuse. 

 

We also have traumatic history in our ancestry which becomes a part of our genetic code. While the DNA in each of our cells is permanent in nature, our epigenome (the way our DNA is expressed) is malleable and can be affected not only by our personal trauma, but also by the trauma of our parents and ancestors. The key is to find ways to energetically uproot the trauma, so we can change the way our body feels and allow it to self-heal.

 

Through my extensive work with clients, I have found that we’ve all had other lifetimes that influence our current life trauma as well. You can think of these other lifetimes as archetypes. We attract experiences in our current life, so we can resolve our unhealed past life traumas. Moreover, we’ve also likely chosen to come into our current lifetime within a particular ancestry. Old ancestral patterns and cycles of trauma repeat, so we can attract the unresolved ancestral trauma and heal it.

 

Past generations tend to have a lot of unresolved trauma since they were less likely to work on themselves for many reasons. In fact, it was often dangerous to express emotional issues and traumatic symptoms. My Grandma Sherman used to say, “If you have too many problems you’ll end up at Anoka State Hospital.” Some of my older clients experienced being institutionalized this due to problems that are considered common today such as postpartum depression and menopause. While things have come along way, still today, there is a definite stigma around having emotional pain and needing help, and because of this much of the trauma experienced in the world remains unresolved.

 

Many people I work with have ancestors who were war veterans. These veterans often came back with addiction issues and PTSD. The father of one of my clients came home traumatized by his experiences in WWII. Her paternal grandfather was traumatized by WWI, so this was at least two generations of war veterans whose unhealed trauma was impacting her ancestral line and field. Her father would wake up with flashbacks and act out what happened to him during the war which included intense abuse. This client now has PTSD and addictions issues herself. Fortunately, she’s working through it so she can end the ancestral cycle of war trauma and the collateral damage it caused.

 

Unresolved past trauma leaves pain, confusion, maladaptive behaviors, and stuck energy active in the ancestral energy field. Because we are connected into this field, we tend to feel and act these dynamics out. It’s important to clear up the left over trauma so we can more easily work on our own trauma. This will also begin the process of expressing your DNA differently which helps to clear up mental, emotional, and physical issues.

 

You can also lighten up the trauma you carry by working on your ancestry since ancestral trauma amplifies your current life trauma. If your own trauma feels like a 5 or 6, your unhealed, ancestral trauma can make it feel more like an 8 or 9.  Ancestries tend to repeat and amplify difficult traumas and experiences until resolved.

 

Additionally, understanding how past lives affect our trauma is also important since we, in part, come into our current life to resolve these past life issues. We tend to duplicate our past life trauma, so we can work through it today. Resolving past life trauma energetically, makes it much easier to heal our current life experiences.

 

Resolving trauma isn’t always easy, but it becomes easier when you realize you’re not alone. You are not unusual, tainted, or bad. Trauma is a universal part of the human condition and nothing to be ashamed of. Knowing this gives you the confidence and courage to work through it. It’s important to have outside help since trauma can limit your ability to see yourself and life clearly. Working with a skilled practitioner can help you reframe your experiences, so you can let go of them on a mental, emotional, and physical level.

 

We are fortunate to live in a time where we have many energetic tools available to help us let go of our traumas and challenges. Doing this healing work raises our vibration so that we can move into Ascension—a vibration that brings in love, kindness, and unity consciousness. Let’s join hands and do this work together. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for!

Community for Ascension

Community is becoming more and more important as we raise our vibration to create inner and outer optimal changes. This shift in vibration is what many refer to as the Ascension process. Ascension is defined as raising our thinking and feeling state to one aligned with love, kindness, acceptance, and unity consciousness.  

The reason why a strong sense of community is becoming more deeply valued is that our human reality is changing rapidly. This can feel scary when left on our own. However, it can feel like an exciting adventure if we are surrounded by a loving and supportive community. 

 

Many of us have dreamed of being in supportive and enjoyable communities where we can continue to grow and evolve. Some people have found their community(s), while others are still searching. There are many kinds of communities to connect with including the friendly voices of change at “The Edge Magazine.” These types of communities are often inspiring and can help us think differently along with confirming that we’re not so different after all!  

 

Community can be found within the workshops we take. Over the years, a large and active community has formed from taking my workshops and gatherings. The participants have created strong bonds of friendship where some talk daily and many have created professional collaborations and projects together. One such project is the “School for Higher Consciousness” which launched on the Summer Solstice - June 21, 2022 with much more to come... 

 

Community Helps us Grow 

 

Community gives us the confidence, safety, and stability we need to move into our best self. This is important since we are in the middle of a shift into a new reality. The old has been rapidly breaking down as people think about and create new ways of living, working, and being together. A new community model is emerging that believes everyone is important to the whole, and that each person’s gifts and skills are greatly needed and valued. The best kind of communities uplift each other so that we can all be our most optimal self, living our happiest life. 

 

I’ve found that moving into higher levels of consciousness, the ascension process, can be challenging because we need to let go of outdated issues, patterns, beliefs, memories, and emotions. This makes room for something new and better to come in. Letting go can be difficult because, even if the mind is ready for the new, the emotions and body may not be ready. Typically, the body is the most resistant to change. The body is like a child who wants things to stay the same. However, Higher Self (our spirit that never dies) is all about expansion and growth and is our very best guide. The more comfortable we are with our Higher Self being in charge, the less resistance our mind, emotions and body will have with change. 

 

A community of support, to affirm you’re on the right track, is also very helpful!  

 

Many times, the spiritual community I am in, will check in with each other on a question or problem to see if others are getting the same answers. We all believe that the best answers come from our Higher Self. They have all practiced, for many years, on connecting with their Higher Self.  Sometimes it’s helpful to have others double check something when feeling blocked. One way to assure you are connected to your highest guidance is to remember that the Higher Self’s answers never feel stressful or have a forced feeling to them. They feel free flowing and effortless. 

 

During one of these check-ins, someone wanted to see if a potential new office was a good fit for them. She was ready to sign a lease. The community members checked-in with her Higher Self and many got that there was something in the lease’s fine print that was unusual and that she should look at it very closely. Sure enough, there were hidden expenses, she wasn’t told about, so she didn’t sign the lease. 

 

The community also helps each other during positive and difficult times. A group chat was established so people can communicate with each other whenever they need support or want to share experiences. There’s always someone on the chat to listen, send positive energies and provide feedback.

 

Now, more than ever, we need to cultivate our spiritual community. Now is the time to transform your perceptions, and raise your thinking and feeling state, so you can create lasting inner and outer changes. Ascension is here, and the best ways to attain this higher state of consciousness, is through community. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for!

Inherited Shame

We are all interconnected via a complex, intricate geometric based grid system that we can call the Divine Matrix. All souls, all planets and stars, all living consciousness in all timelines, dimensions and universes are a part of this Divine Matrix. 

As an interconnected Divine Consciousness, we have all agreed to see what it’s like having many experiences from hate to love in many dimensions or realities.  We have agreed to take different roles with each other to see what it’s like in different bodies, different life experiences, in different eras.  We tend to come back with the same troupe of actors that are in our soul group. We may enlist other troupes of actors that are in other souls groups. These souls help with our life play. Sometimes we play the hero and sometimes we play the difficult lesson giver and anything in between.

Each lifetime has its challenges and complexities that are meant to experience, learn from and then let go of.  However, our bodies struggle letting go of the past which makes us believe we are these difficult experiences. We particularly hold onto shame, guilt, unforgiveness and other issues even after making amends or learning from our life experiences. We then carry them, on a soul level, to other lifetimes hoping to work them through. 

Shame is a tricky one to let go of. It’s something deeply embedded in our mind, emotions and body that tells us we are bad and unloveable due to real or imagined mistakes that are inherited from other lifetimes and the ancestry. It’s then reinforced during childhood so we can work it through as an adult. Shame is etched into the soul as something to work through since resolving them is the key for inner freedom and love so that we can break the karmic and ancestral cycle that we’re in and move into ascension.

You’ve had many lifetimes with various themes where shame is unresolved.  Therefore, before you were born, you met with a council of loving spirit guides who helped you pick life circumstances that would help you resolve these themes of shame and other issues you need to work on. The lifetimes that fit this theme are now set up to influence your current lifetime much like an astrological configuration that stays in your energy field guiding you towards resolution. 

You pick an ancestry with a similar theme to the unresolved lifetimes.  You are born into a collective era that also fits the theme.  You now have the framework for your life journey. Your soul group, your troupe of actors, comes in, with their various roles, to help you work through things in this lifetime and you do the same for them. Your connection is so deep and profound that you feel a strong connection in the form of strong love and also deep hurt. These souls make the most impact since shame and other deep issues need an actor that has the strength to help you make the change.

We are now in a time in history where you can successfully resolve shame and the other themes/issues you’ve come to clear up since we are in the  doorway of ascension. Ascension is about moving into a higher vibration than the current human vibration where unity consciousness is something understood and strived for on a regular basis. 

A big step in transforming ourselves, is accepting that we all have shame and issues to clear up. There’s nothing to feel bad about to admit that there’s something to work on. It’s helpful to work on coping mechanisms you’ve set up to deal with shame and other issues such as denial, dissociating, addictions, projecting issues onto others, etc. It’s also important to let go of painful memories, traumas, patterns, beliefs and behaviors that keep you stuck in an unhappy life. We all have these too. 

How do you do this?  On a daily basis, through intention and enlisting your own beautiful spirit/Higher Self to be in charge of this process with your spirit guides assisting to help you let go of the past. Your intention can be set for changing your thinking and letting go of shame, unforgiveness and other issues leading you to the optimal practitioners, books, energetic healing audios, sound healing, yoga, friends, etc.  You can meditate about this and use it as a walking meditation as you live your life. You will be tested in your environment to see if you’ve learned your lessons which everyone has various degrees of success with until it’s fully learned.

The main thing is have a daily practice of creating positive change in your life and find tools and practices that work for you.  Become the change you want in the world. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for!
