Go with the flow.

You probably hear those words of wisdom frequently dear earth angel, don’t you? At least when you’re looking for advice to de-stress.

Yup, it’s something our angels are constantly teaching us.

Well, at least until we finally get it. They tell me I’m close, but not quite there. They also tell me it takes 10-12 years for many of us with a focused intention. Sigh.

Then they continue with a reminder that before internet, before cell phones, before global travel was so easy, going with the flow was easy.

Now we have a hundred billion things in our lives that can distract us and pull us off course from “the flow”. (Wait a sec, a Facebook notification just came in.)

I don’t know about you, but while I know this is a crucial technique to master there are times – like the holidays – when I want to throw my fists in the air and scream “How?”

Family wants and needs me.

Students need attention.

Friends are calling.

I’m hankering for a long walk on the beach.

There’s shopping to be done, presents to be wrapped, children to hug, a dog who needs to go do “her business” or scavange for a fish head as she did this morning.

I want it all (except the fish head)…but sometimes I can’t visualize how it will all fit into the hours of the day. And I panic.

Thankfully, I have the awareness and my angel friends to help me recognize what I need to do when the anxiety rises.

Stop.

Yes, just stop everything and retreat. Maybe for a few minutes, maybe for a whole day. Depends.

This is what I did yesterday.

You see dear one, when we are out of the flow, we spin, we fight the energy and ultimately lose direction.

Why? Because we are letting the ego hold the reins.

By taking some time out, perspective is regained and we actually become more functional, better organized and yes, happier.

And if your little ego friend is starting to check out and convince you it’s time to stop reading and get back to your task list, lovingly say it ain’t the boss anymore. Your angels are.

Tell your ego friend that you’re following your angels’ plan for you, which means you’re going to do what they think is most important.

Then take the time you need to switch gears and make that happen.

My angels guided me to cancel everything yesterday afternoon and evening. And I feel much replenished and back on track today. Listening to their every whisper! 😉

Anxiety is a form of clairsentience – it’s your angels telling you that you’re out of the flow and need to regroup to follow the path that is your highest and best interest, your destiny.

Listen…and create change with your angel friends. It’s all good!

This season, let it flow, let it flow, let it flow…

With much love,

Rev. Elvia
