Welcome to Summer 2026, a time that many would characterize as a very difficult time for our world.

Global warming, words that once became an alert for the world, are now a part of our lexicon, yet not enough action is being taken, to right the wrongs humanity has brought upon our planet.

Wars are raging. We have a government in the U.S. that seems corrupt, totalitarian, and clearly devoid of investing our taxpayer money into serving our daily needs, all while they seek to instill fear into neighbors who might not have been born here and citizens who were.

Yet…

YOU my friend have choice as to how you greet and meet your day. You have choice in your response.

It is understandably so easy and seductive to buy into the rhetoric, the negativity, and the doomsday mentality that so many people – even those in the spiritual world – are choosing to project. While our world is full of misinformation, it’s clearly a fact that difficulty abounds.

AND…

So does beauty, caring, community, joy and love.

One of my favorite Universal truths is :

You are your attention and what you put your attention on grows.

This is a huge truth, and when you actually put it into practice, you will find that where you put your attention, moment to moment in your life, is the difference between having a good day and walking through your world worried and anxious.

If you spend more time during your day putting your attention on what’s not working than on the goodness that surrounds you, you are creating your own reality, one that is filled with and fueled by fear.

Now let me be clear. I’m not suggesting that you ignore the difficulty that exists in our world or yours. It’s important to be aware of what’s happening.

What I’m guiding you to is your response to the difficulty that you see. While there are times, you’ll want to apply your energy and efforts to correcting the difficulty, it’s always important to put your energy and attention on the aspects of your life that are working, that are positive, that are giving back to you.

When you stay aware of what’s happening but choose to focus your attention on the goodness that surrounds you, you are truly living beyond the difficulties, and are actually creating a different reality.

You are recognizing the difficulty without using it as a landing pad.

AND…

When you choose to use the difficulty as an alert to remind you to become conscious of the goodness in the world, then difficulty becomes an asset!

You are your attention and what you put your attention on grows.

I have seen this truth lived over and over and it applies to the difficulty in our global world and in your personal sphere.

I have a student, a remarkable woman who has several health diagnoses that adversely affect (sometimes severely) her daily life.

Yet she has gone on to raise a family, help her husband build a successful business, take care of her deceased sister in law’s children (as well as her own,) get a PhD and become a therapist.

She never would have been able to accomplish so much if she kept her attention on the pain that she experienced daily.

Placing her attention on the care she needed and then choosing to place the majority of her attention on what she was creating in her life was key. For her focus was on the goodness that existed, rather than on the illnesses that were looking to take her down. This was a key practice that empowered her to create the full and loving life, she experiences daily.

I don’t doubt that you have many reasons in your life to feel depressed anxious and worried. But you also have so many reasons to be grateful, to be excited to be alive.

When you notice yourself going to worry, fear or depression about our world or yours, see it as an “alert” not a landing pad.

Use that moment as your personal alarm clock to remind you to stop as soon as you can. Then close your eyes and just feel in your heart 1 by 1 the aspects of your life that you are grateful for. No matter how difficult your life, you will be surprised to find the many qualities that bring the goodness to you.
When you are complete come back into your space and notice how you feel. My students report that they come out of this practice feeling lighter and brighter, feeling optimistic and hopeful. In this energy, should you choose, you can take actions on the 3D world to right the wrong you noticed.

I’m bringing this practice to you as I am committed to helping you move through your world and ours from the highest aspect of who you are and that higher aspect is indeed the energy of love.

Yes, our world is reeling. There is difficulty everywhere, and yet the beauty, the joy, connection, opportunity, generosity, gratitude and boatloads of potentiality exist for you, every moment of every day.

You my friend are the only one that can color your life.

You are the only one that can create a day that is filled with positivity and joy or drudgery, worry and fear.

This is the choice that’s been given to you, and you can correct your view every moment of every day.

Choose wisely!
