As I watch all people of the world evolve, expand and contract I see so many opportunities to hold space. As a teacher of yoga, meditation, mindfulness, awareness and consciousness I am constantly reminded that so many people struggle with holding space for themselves. 

If you have any doubt about this, please observe the mental poison of media, the epidemic rates of anxiety and depression. The pandemic of fear. The reality, that despite our ability to connect to anything and everyone in the world with technology, many people feel more alone than ever before. 

You see, I am a space holder, it is the place of transformation. Space contains all that is known and unknown. It is in space that we are reminded or our potential. It is in the ethers that the TRUTH resides. It is here that one can move beyond limitation. The gateway is the INNER cosmos. 

The key to the door of your INNERstanding is your breath. 

Your breath is the single most powerful tool that you have in this physical realm. Your ability to modify your breath is the direct pathway to the intelligence and guidance of your SOUL.

If you would like to learn more about holding space for yourself, connecting with the guidance of your SOUL and facilitating greater INNERstanding then consider joining me for one of my free events on Insight Timer OR check out my upcoming online retreat Jan. 2-8th in collaboration with Hannah Levin.

This is a wonderful way for you to start to tap into the awareness that you hold the keys. 

I was speaking with a friend last night and as we discussed a multitude of things my mind kept coming back to an aspect in her life that she shared. In this place there was friction. She felt it…I still feel it. The thing about friction is that it is an opportunity to be mindful of your true feelings. You know all that stuff under the surface that most of us don’t want to look at because it has been put into our mind and hearts that this is uncomfortable. 

The truth is, you are an ever evolving being and therefore it’s VERY important that you dive into all those things under the surface reaction. You see, the surface reaction, isn’t even really you. It’s who you have been taught to be. It’s how you have been taught to behave. 

When you consciously choose to stop BEing how others expect you to be then you can really begin to start HAVEing the life you truly desire because you are now taking full responsibility for your life.

When you feel friction, this is a direct arrow to a place where there is misalignment.

Misalignment is an opportunity for you to evolve, to grow, to step into your potential and live your best life. This arrow is directing you to living a heart centered life in collaboration with your Higher Self.

The thing about evolving is that you also have to be able to let go of what no longer aligns or resonates. Change is okay. 

It’s okay to let go of relationships, behaviors, feelings and so forth in order to step into that unconditional heart space.

If you “think” you are who you are, then evolution might not be for you. 

If you feel that you are not your thoughts but those thoughts are driving your reality, then it’s time to really look at how you feel about your reality. 

You cannot “think” your way into HEART.

You want joy? Then you gotta feel it and in order to feel it you just might have to mine through all that other dense shit in the way. That mining process is gonna take fire aka friction and it might not be comfortable but I KNOW that on the other side of all that thinking is your opportunity to EVOLVE to ASCEND and move beyond the limited perspective of that old narrative.

You see, you already know where the misalignment is. 

You have always had the ability to create the joy you desire. You have just been programmed to BELIEVE that if you actually listen to your heart then you are being selfish or that something will go wrong or people won’t like you.

People don’t like when they can’t keep getting the same charge out of you. People don’t like when they cannot get what they want. Nothing more, nothing less. When you change your energy, the energy of everything around you changes.

Choose to evolve because our entire planet is ascending and I want you to be a part of the consciousness that is the NEW EARTH. It’s not about money, control, systems, or mass population soothing. This New Earth is about personal responsibility, collective elevation, freedom, liberation for ALL. 

Look at the spot of friction in your day, life or problem…it’s here that you will find the fire of illumination just waiting to light up your life, ascend your consciousness and pave the way to that joyful beauty you desire to call yours each and every day.

Stay Illuminated, 

Xo

Working in the Shadows

Today I was cleaning and listening…mostly listening to this thought process I was having about the full moon and how I love lying nude in the moonlight. You may know that I charge my crystals with the sun and the full moon like many crystal lovers. A little over a year ago I started charging myself with the crystals. Let me explain…

At the time I was teaching a lot about Shadow Work and of course was doing my own inner work. As I continued my growth journey I started thinking that the only reason that things in the dark seem so scary is because we are often unfamiliar with them. Fear, like a magnifying glass, takes that unknown and gets you to myopically focus on it with your thoughts and then it expands to something beyond its actual proportion.

At the time that I was thinking these thoughts, I realized that if I simply rested in the shadows, lingered in stillness then I would be able to see the light even in the darkness. This is how my moon bathing began and like my crystals, I FEEL different. I am charged by the Mother. This tapping into my own depths has allowed me to illuminate so many other aspects of my daily existence. It has also allowed me to walk with my shadows in compassion. More importantly, it has allowed me to rest within the Divine Feminine energy that I have always felt was lacking within me. I have realized that this energy was within me always but I was tapping into too much solar energy. 

Taking this time in the moonlight has given me the awareness that I don’t always have to be the doer. Actually, it has proven to me that the more I can get still and stay out of the way, the more that Source offers all to me effortlessly. My only action is to recognize and accept with grace. My responsibility is to attune myself daily and be mindful of what my feelings and thoughts line of with.

The next full moon I hope to inspire you to sit in the moonlight. Bask in the shadows…you will be amazed at all the beauty waiting for you there. You just might find a new level of illumination and awareness. Charge yourself in the darkness of the night upon the full moon and then look at how you SHINE. ✨ 

Much love, Akasha

Hunger

What do you do when your hunger isn’t physical?

How do you operate when you feel like you are starving despite having food, clothing, all things that are needed?

What do you do when living in the light is more nutritious than the cool, still, numb blanket of the dark that you have grown accustomed to?

How do you open up, let go and move on when the snacks in your hand are consistent calories?

What excuse do you use to keep from feeding your SOUL?

This type of hunger causes pain beyond the body. Places the mind in the existential loops of illusion.

You find yourself in spaces and places you don’t want to be because you’re too busy eating the meals that everyone else tells you are best for you.

You keep doing what others have done and that’s why it’s not working for you.

You are aren’t others.

You’re YOU.

What feeds others isn’t going to feed you the same way.

Do you stay in the jungle of your hunger, starving while swinging from vine to vine taking what each location offers or do you go for a walk in the desert and bask in the space and liberate yourself from the illusive canopy of “good enough.”

You see, hunger is relative.

You gotta get relative with one question.

Would you rather starve in the jungle of everyone else’s creation or walk in the desert Soulscape of your consciousness ?

Hunger can kill…physically, emotionally, mentally….

Why do you keep feeding the body, distracting the emotions and numbing the mind?

Why haven’t you chosen to feed your SOUL?

Eliminating all the useless calories of mind numbing information, egotism, should have, could haves, rationalism of emotions and so on can create a feast for you unlike any other.

Dive into the relativity of the fact that we have ONE life. We all start with and inhale and leave with an exhale. It’s going to end the same. Feed your SOUL. Get busy living because we are all dying.

What are you hungry for? Share your SOUL journey below……xoxo, Akasha

In the video I mention Saturn energy for the Emperor card from the aspect of Divine Masculine energy however there is massive Aires energy present in this card. Aires is independent, assertive, self assured and known for taking charge. Often a better leader than a doer lol

The Release card is connected to Scorpio which is all about new beginnings and letting go of old, outdated stuff. Scorpio is all about deep dives of inner exploration and evolution. 

You can work with Archagel Azrael who's name means "whom God helps" by reciting the following prayer: 

Archangel Azrael, Angel of Peace and Comfort,

I pray to you today and always, I invoke your presence and ask for your help.

Fill me with your eternal comfort and peace and heal me from my pains.

Amen

You can work with Archangel Michael who's name means, "he who is like God" by reciting this prayer: 

Archangel Michael, please protect me from all lower energies today, and keep harsh vibrations far away

Please surround me with your light, and infuse my aura with your might. 

(prayer by Robert Reeves)

WOWZA!!!

It's almost here!!! I have been working diligently on an ENTIRELY new program. 

So many people in the world are stressed, overwhelmed, disconnected from Self and Source.

How are you supposed to do what lights you up if you don’t know how to love and accept yourself and let go of perfectionism and pain? 😱

Is it actually possible to have a passionate life you love without working yourself to death to get it and fearing failure all the time?! 🤯

I know so many people have tried all kinds of self help books, online classes,  gym memberships and diets... And nothing has quite worked?

How do you find the  TIME ⏰ to focus on you so you can love, accept and celebrate yourself… if you're a badass go getter or have a full time job, family and a mountain of other responsibilities?

How do you justify spending money on gyms, meal plans, pedicures, workshops, retreats and more if you barely use it and/or it’s not sustainable?

😨 Why's it so nerve-racking to accept your awesomeness?

Is the constant struggle  to produce and achieve the old outdated idea of perfection really worth it?

Can you really have a fun filled, passionate existence without adding more to your already heavy workload?

🤔 And when should you work on yourself?

🤔 Are you doing effective self care? How often?

🤔 What about reading, studying and applying all the tools and info in the books, podcast, courses etc that you are listening to?

STOP. THIS. CYCLE. 🤯

If any (or all) of the above runs through your head… day after day… I can help.

I don't claim to know it all, I HAVE helped a lot of people transform their mind, body & life by creating a sustainable step by step action plan. They call themselves Guiding Lights 🌟

And yet…

Not really that long ago, I was where you are now.

Those early days were brutal!

I'd take a step forward only to take three more back. I was drowning in stress, work, perfectionism tendencies, anxiety, worry and a constant inner struggle for more passion, joy, fun, love and self acceptance.

Anyways, if that's kinda how you feel right now...

Let me show you the light in the darkness, so that you stop hitting dead ends or getting lost on back roads, and instead take the fast lane to a passionate, illuminated  life that you can be proud of and enjoy with every breath.

Let me show you how to unleash your inner light without getting in your own way. 

👇 Here is what I’m proposing. 👇

I’ve had a TON  of overwhelmed, stressed out, anxious  workaholics and overachiever Type A personalities reach out to me for my help.

So I had this bright  idea to create and facilitate a step by step plan to  guide you from stressed to blessed in 6 weeks.

No fluff. No messing around, just a simple plan to take you from stressed to blessed. So you can get lit up,  illuminated and passionate about your life.

✅ If you are interested in claiming one of the 14 spots available, email back with  the words: Shine Bright

👉 More details to follow tomorrow, on my Facebook page at 3pm.

So many of us light workers have a hard time speaking our truth and standing up for ourselves. 

This can often be because channeling the sun energy or masculine energy can feel foreign or better yet overwhelming and so we simply remain quiet and bottle up the feelings which later turn Into suppressed anger.

What if we star seeds simply saw this energy as ENERGY. 

What if we were to use this energy for the benefit of all beings everywhere inclusive of ourselves?

What if we stand up for ourselves and speak our truth from a place of loving our self and holding space for all involved in the moment? What if we stand up because we are standing up for the benefit of all while standing in our TRUE power?

Accountability all around.

When you speak your truth in a way that is inclusive then you are having an impact on the world. A blocked throat chakra helps no one. Suppressed anger eats you up inside and creates more of the same on the outside. You have a voice and it’s important to use it for everyone including YOU.

Set your boundaries and when they are crossed speak up. 

Stand up for you. 

You are worthy. 

You deserve to enjoy your human experience too. 

Earth is a school so let’s learn how to love ourselves enough to speak our truth and stop stamping out our feelings or shoving them down because they are uncomfortable…

Stop being brainwashed into hiding how you truly feel. 

Your feelings are the greatest asset you have on the path of your ascension. Be a little uncomfortable, be honest, be courageous and stand in your TRUTH from a place of love, light and channeling energy for the benefit of all. 

This works….just try it 🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼
