Look, I know y'all, like is going on right here, right now? It is transformed Tuesday and today today is so so very special. You know those moments when the universe just aligns with everything so perfectly, then you can help that you can't help, but pay attention. Right, Well, that's exactly what is happening to me. Just the other day, I was at my altar during my morning meditation session and starting my personal seven day clans for clarity and spiritual growth. Right So, as always, my morning By playlist was flowing in the background when Earth Winding Fire song on Your Face started playing. Now, this song, this song takes me to It takes me right back to my childhood, the moments with me and my father, and he used to play this song almost every day, and even now after his passing, is one of our strongest spiritual connections. So now I'm going to tell you where the divine timing comes in. Right. So, you know that I've been reading by Practice, Change your paradigm, Change your life. We even did a ten book challenge on it last year the end of last year where he talks about where in the book he talks about how nat King Coles Pretend became his daily mantra. Right. Well, let me tell you how confirmation happened for me on the same day that I was listening to this song and it kind of me and I was like, h it's something that this song hitting me a little different. Why is it hitting me different today? Why do I feel like there's a messages coming here? Why do I feel like And on that same day, one of our beautiful season of suck Lovers that went through the ten day Change Your Paradigm, Change Your Life, he had DMD me and he asked me about the song that Bob Procter has said that he had liked that it was one of his favorite songs that he did. And you know, I told him, and when I was sitting there at the altar, well actually later that day, when I saw that, I was like, Okay, yeah, I just want to do it. So let me go back at the altar. When I heard that song, I kept listening to the words, and I kept what was going into So it's going in my mind is the words, but also how chaotic and how depressing the world is right now, and a lot of times we have to find a space within ourselves to where we can find faith and peace and happiness. So when I thought about doing this very song, and I was like, I need to make an episode a lot of this, and I said, this is the right time to make that episode, especially when we're talking about cultivating self compassion. I said one thing, Naomi, either it going to be an epic fail or this is going to be one of the most moving, wants, moving and powerful episodes that you're going to have that you're going to have. So as I'm thinking about it and I'm writing notes and I'm going through my mind in my head, then I remember just earlier that week is the conversation that we had with doctor will So all of this this connection that reminded me when doctor Real shared with us just Monday about creating that personal mantra for the year, right, and it all just clicked. It all just clicked for me. How words, especially in music, carries such such magical power for healing and transformation. Because remember, if you ever read the book the Four Agreements, the very very first agreement is use your words a peccabilion. And when you read the book, it tells you how powerful, how magical words can be. And remember a few weeks ago when I spoke about pray p R A y versus prey p r E y. But even using words with intentions, understanding the words that you speak and you say out in these words and So when you think about a lot of these songs, especially back in the sixties and the seventies, that has so much meaning to them. Music is my first love. Music has always been my first love. So what I want to do in this is I want to break down a few of the lyrics and I want to see how that's going to roll off and roll for you. Are all right? So before we get into this, let's take a quick break. All right, it's your gurty got ha snum. Everybody's here on this season and Self Love Podcast and would be right back.

All right, So I want you to find a comfortable position, whether you're driving, at work or in your sacred space at home, and as you can begin to. Meditate. I want to invite you to connect with your breath. All right. Now, I want you to breathe in through your nose, hold for a moment. Now it's held through your mouth, allowing each breath to carry you deeper into a present. Now, I want you to feel the energy of. Those who came before us, the wisdom that they passed down through music, through stories, through love. If you're in a safe pace, I want you to place one hand on your heart and one hand on your face, and I want you to feel the warm of your own touch. This is self compassion in the simplest form, your own loving hands, holding your own sacred self. Now bringing your mind to someone who has shown you true compassion. Maybe it's apparent, like my father who filled our home with music, or maybe it's a friend, a teacher, or even a stranger who have shown your kindness when you needed it the most. I want you to feel that compassion flowing through you now, as the lyrics say in this song, and it funny that the way you feel shows on your face. I want you to take a moment to soften your expression, releasing an attention that is in your job. Your forehead around your eyes and let your face be a mirror of compassion that you're cultivating within. Now, keeping this sense of gentle awareness, I want you to begin to deepen your breath, feel the connection between your interstate and your out of expression. This is your authentic self, worthy of all the compassion that you can give. Now, I want you to take one more deep breath with me, and when you are ready, I want you to slowly open your eyes and bring your attention back to the surroundings I write, my beautiful people, all right. I want you to hold on to that feeling of compassion as we move into our first segment. You know, when I was at my aultar the other morning, I was thinking about how we often try to hide our true feelings, especially in today's world. In this song speaks This song speaks to this so perfectly. So in this first segment, we're going to talk about the sacred mirror. And that's what I named this first segment, the Sacred Mirror. And no matter matter how hard we try it. And no matter how you try to hide, it is what it says. It stays your case. I'm gonna say these words one more time, and no matter how you try to hide it, it stays your case. These words have been played in my mind all weekend. I'm gonna say that again, and no matter how you try to hide it, it states your case. In Byproctor's book, he talks about how certain words and certain phrases can literally reshape our reality when we truly take them in. Just like doctor Will taught us last Monday about creating our personal mantras for the year, it's about finding those words that resonate deep in your soul. You see, my beautiful people. Our faces. Our faces tell our stories. I know mind you, I know mind you. But the stories in our faces that it tells us. Every line, every expression, every smile, every tear, they are all sacred messages from our own inner world. And here's the beautiful thing. When we approach this message with compassion instead of judgment, something special always happens. I remember watching my father listening to this song and his face would light up. His whole beam was shift. And that's the power of allowing yourself to fully feel, to fully feel, how to express what you're feeling. Does that make sense you see, because in today's world, we often are told to hide our emotions, to put on a brave face. But what I just we choose compassion instead of concealment. Mmm, let's try something together. I want to try something with you or you all know that I do a mirror imaging practice. I don't do it every morning, but I do it often. So if you're in a safe space, if you're at home or somewhere private, I invite you to. I want you to find a mirror if you're driving or out in public, and you can do this exercise later. But whenever you do do it. Here's what I want you to try, all right, So I want you to look into your own. Eyes and really look, what do you see? What do you see when you look into your own eyes? And what story is your face telling you today? And most importantly, can you offer compassion to whatever you find there? Remember what doctor Will said about personal mattress right, that they should resonate with your truth in your journey. So as you look into the mirror, you to create a compassion mattra just for yourself, a compassion mattra just for yourself. And I'm gonna give you some examples. And it can be as simple as I see you, I love you, I accept you. Oh, you can even try something that can inspire you. Even by the song that we're using today. It's my truth shows on my face and that's beautiful, you see. Love of This is when the transformation, real transformation begins as in these quiet moments of honest self reflection and deep compassion and deep compassion. We talked about self reflection yesterday where doctor Will would embracing our imperfections. So now I want to shift someone else. I want to talk about breaking through spiritual mask. So remember we are using different words to break it down to where we can find healing empowerment. So you know that lyric, Now, a frin will bring you spirits down to the ground and never let you see good things all around. I'm going to say that lyric for you on more time. Now A frin will bring your spirits down to the ground and never let you see the good things all around. You. See these lyrics they hit different when you're on a spiritual journey. Sometimes what we hear, what I call our spiritual mass, is trying to be positive all the time, forcing smiles when you're hurting inside the thinking. That's what spiritually reality requires us. See, that's what they think when you when you're going on a spiritual journey, and you you know you're full of spirituality, that you're always supposed to be positive, that you never have a dull moment. But let me share something personal with you. During my morning ritual on Sunday, while I was connecting with my father's energy through song, I had such a powerful revelation. True spirituality isn't about hiding our feelings. It's about embracing them. What Compassion, just like earth, wind and Fire said, when we are wearing a mask, we can't see, we can see the good things around us, you see. Think about it? How many times have you said, oh, I'm fine when you really not? And I often do you hide behind a spiritual practice instead of letting it transform you? For me, let me tell y'all, since twenty twenty five, Hit Transformation, Rebirth, Secreticity, Alignment, messages just been there coming to me in real time. And I shared with you before I will have an outline of what the shows are going to be, And yet have I yet did a show of any of the outlines that I've already pulled out. So I'm gonna go back to Biopractic's book and what was talked to me through his book, is that transformation happened when we're honest with ourselves. Transformation happens when we are honest with ourselves. And in doctor Will's teaching about personal mantress last Monday, it wasn't about creating the perfect phrases. It was about finding words that speak your truth. So let's do something else. Let's do something else, Let's do something brave right now. So, wherever you are, I want you to take a moment to check in with yourself. Naomi, we getting deep today. Yes, this is called transform Tuesday and for us to truly get down to the core of self healing, self love and what it is. These are things that we have to do. I guess God was telling me, you know what, those little sayings and things that you have written down on that piece of paper that ain't good enough. You did that last year. This year we gotta go deeper and I'm all for So again I want you to take a moment to check in with yourself. All right, I'm gonna give you a moment. And I got a question for you. What mask are you wearing today? What mask are you wearing today? Maybe it's the I got it all together. Mask. I know I've worned that on many of days, and maybe it's the spiritual person who never gets angry mask. Now, I ain't wanna that mask yet. I'm sorry. Maybe it's that I don't need help mask, and I'm gonna be real honest with y'all. That's probably one of my favorite masks. I don't need help mask now. With all of that, with all of the compassion that you can gather, all the compassion that you can gather, I want you to imagine gently removing that mass. Don't tear it off. I don't want you to tear it off because we wore these masks for a reason, right, so we have to honor that. But I want you to gently and lovingly letting is softened. Let it is soften where it can begin to melt away. You see, when the song says, here go another line. Every time we seem to let our feelings flow, our luck run out, and the wind won't blow. And it's so every time I hear that that verse, that line, every time, I get so emotional. I get so emotional every time we seem to let our feelings flow, our luck run out, and the wind won't blow. So I'm gonna tell you what I think it's talking about. I think it's talking about that fear that we all have, the fear that if we show our true selves that everything will fall apart. But here's what I've learned in my own journey and what I've witnessed in my father's love for the music, that it's actually when we allow ourselves to be real, that is when magic happens. This is what real self compassion looks like. It's not about being perfect, it's not about always being positive. It's about creating a space that is safe within ourselves that we can show up exactly as we are, exactly as we are. I know for me, it had been hard for me to show up as I am years ago. But I am so proud to look at that beautiful goddess, that beautiful woman, that heal woman in the mirror and see that she is no longer, no longer afraid to show who she is who I am. All right, So let's talk about this next segment. So you know those moments when the universe speaks so clearly that it stops you in your tracks, that happens to me often. Well, I need to share something else powerful with you. That also happened during my Sunday alter session. There I was in my sacred space setting attentions for the weak ahead when something felt different. I didn't know what it was. I didn't know what it was. I set up, my altar was set up, my candles was lit, my vibe music was playing behind me. As that I'm sitting there with my altar. Is just something just just felt just different, and I couldn't understand. Because despite of all the amazing alignments that I had, the perfect messages that have been coming through that align gats all of these beautiful synchronicities, I found myself feeling so apprehensive about something. I didn't even know what it was, but it was so bad that I was almost questioning the power of our inner jetic spiritual connection. But then, and why I am laughing. Why I'm laughing is because in that moment of uncertainty, my father said, I don't begin to play again. And so what happened next was just pure divine and timing. So again I've been diving deep into by practice book Change your Life, Change your paradigm, right, change your paradigm, change your life, and just really sitting there with the wisdom about how we create our reality. Okay, And in the moment at my altar with Earth Winter fireplane, something profound just clicked me. I realized that we truly have the power over what we put out in what we receive in this life. It hit me so clearly, and I remember saying I'm healed. Now. I know that might sound well, but stay with me. So Friday, I went to the doctor and he didn't have no answers for me. Matter of fact, somehow someone ordered the wrong testing for me. So instead of me getting an MRI that had got me a CTI, a cat scam, I didn't know what I was getting. I was just there getting it. So when I go in there and I'm sitting, you know, I've been nervous about what the doctor would say to me, but I prepared myself for whatever, right. So, mind you, for the past three days, I've been getting different messages and things about eating healthy, about being in control of your own body and what you put in it, and all of those things. And I'm telling him what is going on with my body? You know, I'm looking to get back to working out. I hadn't been working out there in the past few months, and I want to get back to working out, I want to get back to walking, I want to get back to doing all of these things. And I didn't know that during my last visit with my neurologist that he really wasn't writing down what the hell I was telling him all of the symptoms that I have been having and going through. And this is the very reason why my primary doctor sent me to his ass right. So he's sitting there embarrassed because through all of this, he steadied trying to talk me into more medication. And I told him from the first visit that I truly don't want to take medications. I want to figure out what's the root of this problem. That is what the MRIR is for. And that's when he tells me, wait, who did this? I didn't. I didn't prescribe this. I prescribed the MRI for you, and somebody put a CTI in for you. Really. Yeah, So now he scheduled me for two separate riyes, as well as more medication. I said, now, I'm not gonna do that. I Am not going to do that. I said. God sent someone to me last Tuesday and Wednesday. Actually she's going to be against on tomorrow's show, and we were supposed to be talking about self compassion and stuff like that, but ended up her speaking to me and then speaking to me afterwards after we had this show. You guys say, hear it tomorrow. But in all of that, I realized that hold on and how the world is going wrong right now with finances and DEI and all of those other things that is happening. Yeah, it's time for me to really get serious about truly understanding what I am putting in my body, truly to what I am putting in my body, as well as you all on what you're putting in your body. When I learned that day sitting at that alter, what just came loud to me was, for so long we've been looking outside of ourselves for healing, right, expecting others to cure our ailments, elements of what we created through stress, through what we consume, through toxic situations that we've allowed in our lives. But right there, when that music was playing with my father father's energy around me, I understood something deeper. I understood something deeper. The one thing is that I know I know that the things in the world they're very chaotic, and it might feel like everything is falling apart, but that's exactly why this message found us today. We have to maintain our hope, we have to maintain our beliefs, and we have to maintain our faith in ourselves and our divine connection. I promise y'all, this is not about me preaching. I'm not preaching. I'm not I'm not preaching. This is about being real. It's about recognizing that these challenging times that we need to trust in our inner guidance more than ever. And I have to I'm sorry, I have to go back to what Bob Procter had said in his book. He said, we need to step back from the noise, from the news that drains us, from the situations that dim our light. And that's why I'm so glad that the season and self love that we're talking about rebirth, but not only that, but were going deeper into what self compassion is for us, that we're taking things in our life like those the words from a song and creating healing moments from that, as well as our DVD principles that we talked about last month, decision, visualization, and discipline. I use that when creating this, I made the decision that I was going to use this song, that I was gonna break it down. I visualize us all healing from that. I visualized me sitting here in real time with this song, with these emotions, with this feeling, with this authenticity, being real, raw and honest, but also compassionate. And then the discipline is that I say here and did it, and if I share this with you all. It took me a minute to do this show today. Everything that can possibly happen emotionally happen today, and I'm gonna share it with you next Tuesday for next Tuesday show. Because when I tell you that things happen to me in real time and there are amazing things that happen, they do. So when I talk about sitting that day, on that Sunday and going into that questioning mode, I couldn't understand, Like why am I questioning this? I've seen everything, I've experienced, everything I've witnessed, miracles I've witnessed. I understand that we you are very powerful beings. We are energetically connected to one another, but also within ourselves that we ourselves can heal ourselves. I know this sounds crazy, they might take me off, but really, let me say this on Friday. I'm gonna share this with you. On Friday, when I left my doctor's office. When I left there, I went to lunch. Then I went to the herbal store to find me a herbalist, and I told her what was going on with me, all of my ailments. And she took my little self around and she just started picking certain things and certain you know from there. And she went behind the table and was writing some things down and she said, okay, you need this right here. Boom, this right here, boom, this right here, boom, this right here, boom. She asked me, she are you on any medication right now? I said, no, I haven't taken any medication and about a month I stopped taking it. She said, look, I want you to try these and it's going It might take a minute to really get in your system, but these herbs will help you with your micrame and everything else that is going with you. They have to start to work together, start to feel the you and working and energetic with you. So as I'm listening to her, then I remember the conversation that I had with tomorrow's guests that I interviewed last week Miss Darlene, and she told me how our bodies disconnect when our bodies go through trauma, when they go through certain things, our bodies disconnect with us and so they go all out of whack. She'll be able to explain it more to you tomorrow. But as I'm listening to this lady and I'm listening to what Miss Darlene had spoke to me and said to me, this was like, yes, Naomi, you need to get with it. And not only that, but I went on my TikTok shop and I ordered this book. Once I get the book and it comes and I started, I'm gonna post it up on this page, on our website and everything, because we have the power to truly be able to heal ourselves through the f through everything that God has already put on this earth for us to use through urbal. Yeah. Yeah, And as I'm sitting here right now, I say I was not I'm I'm I'm going to be a erbalist now. But let me say this today. This is early early morning Tuesday, and I have yet to have a migrane. I had a migrant every day last week Monday through Friday, when I started doing what she told me to do. I have not had a migrant yet, not one would not at all, not at all. So, my beautiful people, I'm just saying, I really, I'm truly paying attention to everything that is coming to me. And one thing is that my prayer is that I am truly expressing and giving it out as God intended it for me to do. That. You, my beautiful listeners, that you are resonating and you understand exactly what I am saying. Because the thing is when we do, when we create that sacred space for the divine messages to reach us, that is when real magic happens. As I just share with you, that's when we remember our own power to heal and to transform into rise. Yeah yeah, yeah, all right. So let's shift to a soulful place. All right. So we're about to take on your face and we're gonna shift it to a soulful place, all right. So let's talk about something powerful. Listen to this, the wisdom that flows through music, through generations, through time itself. So when earth went and fire, when they sing, I start to wonder, what's going down in your life? Is it safe and sound? It's not just lyrics for me. Listen, it's my ancestors checking on us. It's my ancestors checking on me, making sure that what's staying true to our path. So when I say this, so let me say and I don't want it because this morning, this morning, that by alter, it showed up in real time for me. And I'm gonna share it next week with two songs. And it's two songs just kept playing on. It just kept playing over and over again with my Father's song coming in there. But when I share with you on how challenging it was today this morning, you'd be like, wow, Naomi, Yeah, you see every time this song, let's hard to go back to this song that every time this song comes on, I feel my father presence. Every time I hear this song, I feel my father presence when I am somewhere and it might feel this song comes on and it reminds me, is that no matter what's happened outside, well, no matter what's happened outside around you, inside is where you go for your peace. Inside is where I go for my peace. That is why it's so important for us to understand what self love is. Self love is that intimate relationship with ourselves and having that intimate relationship with ourselves. That is a true connection, connection to oneness to God. God is in all of us. God is in all of us. But when I hear this song from my Father, I feel his presence, I feel this energy, I feel this wisdom, I feel this guidance. And it got me thinking about my ancestors. So let me share this with you. You know, our ancestors didn't have social media telling them how to feel. They didn't have twenty four hour new Sycopheedi in them fear. What they did have they had something far more powerful, that connection with spirit, their trust and the divine timing, and their understanding of natural rhythms. So a few weeks ago when I was talking about pray p a r Y versus p R E y, and then the week after that we talked about your mantra and your intentions, and those words are powerful. When we're talking about positive self talk, we talk about belief and faith. Now we're talking about self compassion. This is what that inner strength is. That is where that energy, that magic, that light is. It is within us. That's that love, that's that self love. So you know when they created that music, when they created this music, they weren't just making it's something for us to dance to our answers. Back back then, they were in coding messages, perservation techniques for the soul. I want you to think about it. Think about this. Use the sunshine in your heart. That's a phrase from the song. Listen, use the sunshine in your heart. It isn't just a phrase. That's ancient wisdom about generating your own light, especially when the world seems dark bull earth ring in fire. Know there was some powerful individuals writing this music. But back then, when you don't no, no, nothing, you just dancing to it. But I knew this song, not only because it was a song that my father used to play all the time, but it was certain lines in the song that just pulled on my heart, just pulled on my soul and my spirit, and I'm like, WHOA, what is it? So that day that they wouldn't I felt I was like, m h wait a minute, and something was like, no, you need to share this. You need to break this down. I don't know how you're gonna do it, but you're gonna break it down. And I was so tempted to call doctor Willer, say you know because he is the musical genius there right, And it said, no, you got this on your own, baby, you got this on your own. So I was like, okay, okay. So at my altar this morning the other morning, I was like, okay, that moment of clarity about my own healing power. I felt them all there with me. I felt my father, I felt my grandmother, I felt everybody there, and so I knew that, yeah, it's time. It's time. You see those preserved in the teachings and the rhythm and the melody, all of those are healing powers. Those words, remember, those words are magical. But also what our ancestors are doing for us is that they're reminding me. They're reminding us that we always had the power. We've always known the way. And when I tell you I can go so much deeper with this that I'm not because it is spelled off to something just woof yeah. But in times like these, this is when it feels like the world is spending out of control, our ancestors left us tools encoded in songs like this one. So when the lyrics say you can shake me the way I feel today, come tomorrow, I feel the same way that's not stubbornness, that spiritual resilience. That's the kind of unshakable faith that our ancestors had to cultivate to survive, to thrive, to make sure that we will be here. So when I say this, I first I don't want to exclude anybody, but I want to say this. There was a there was a post that I posted up the other day, and when I heard that video, I reposted it. Excuse when I heard that video, it touched me so much, especially because I was preparing for this show on that day and I think it was Monday, yesterday, I think it was yesterday, and this lady was speaking, and she was saying how that black people were basically walking miracles and that everything that our ancestors have gone through and even with all of us are going through in this moment and this time, throughout all the years of everything, is that we're still here. But not only that, but we still are so powerful in what we do that we are leaders. We are leaders, we are r revolutionary, we're trendsetters, We're powerful, magical. And when I say we're magical, we'll take nothing and make it anything. So amazing. Even when I see here right now, I just think about everything that's happening in the world today, and one thing I do I I I I hate politics. I do. I hate I politics. I hate talking about it. And even though I must speak in spirituality right here, I don't like talking about religions either. I don't like talking about religions well, but I love speaking about spirituality. And I know how could that be, Naomi, Because I know my connection with God that I've always had. It didn't matter if I was in the four walls of a church or the four walls of my bedroom, or driving in my car, through my prayer, through my meditation, through my mantras, through whatever my chance. I've always had a connection with God because I always knew and believed that God was within me, as God's within you, some, my beautiful people. I know this has been a long one and I wasn't sure how this episode was going to turn out. I didn't. I didn't. I really didn't. I really didn't, and I really prayed that it truly resonated with you all on here. You know what I thought about, too, is that when we listen to all of those old songs and stuff like that, it's like it's surely our turn, our turn to truly create magic for our children moving forward. So as we take these teachings in these musical maths interest and applying them to our modern day challenges right now that we're doing today, I would like for us to do the same. But also I want you all to remember that when earth, wind and fire tell us, ain't it funny that the way you feel shows on your face, they're teaching us about authenticity, about alignment, about the kind of spiritual integrity of our ancestors and what they live by. When I say this has came to me, I didn't know how it was all gonna come out. I really didn't. But I'm excited because this is something that I think we should do more often. So I want to do something right now. I want to do something sacred right right now. So if you can, I want you all to just close your eyes, and I want you to imagine a line of light stretching back through time, a line stretching back through time, and I want you to see all of those who came before you standing in that light, all of your ancestors, And I want you to feel their strength, feel their wisdom, feel their loving flowing into you. Now. I want you to bring that awareness to your face and let it showed the pride of carrying their legacy, their teaching, and their resilience, because that's how we honor them, right, not by pretending everything is perfect, but by facing our challenges with the same strength they showed. Somebody remembering, as Bob Proctor teaches us, that we have the power to change our paradigm just as they did by understanding that a healing isn't just for us, it is for our entire lineage, past, present, and future. So, my beautiful people, this is where things get really powerful. Right. Yeah, I thought I was there that I know this is long. So when we start to see our individual selves as healers, we create waves of transformation in our community. So when earth wave and fire sings, I'll take you with me when you're feeling bad. They're speaking to this ripple effect healing. The messages that I've been receiving from our community lately, they just take a breath. Man. Let me tell you something. First of all, I'm gonna say this, thank you all for just being so honest, so real in this journey that you have been going with me. Because all that you shared with me, it truly has taken my breath away. So let me say this. My prayer is that everyone is safe. Everyone is safe in their home, and I just had to take this moment right now. That everyone is safe in their home and in their space. But now I want you to be safe in your heart and in your spirit and your soul. So I want to share this with you all. Well, one of our listeners wrote and said, Naomi after last week episode about creating personal mantras with doctor Will, I finally understood I don't have to wait for anyone's permission to heal. I can choose it right now. See this happens when we get real about our journey family, when we stop pretending everything is perfect, when we admit that yes, the world might feel overwhelming sometimes, but we still have the power to choose healing and to choose to love and choose growth. And you know what's beautiful. Just like this morning at my author that I realized my own healing power. The other day I watching our community has similar revelations. So you sharing your stories with me and just breaking free of toxic situations, you're creating your own sacred space. And you're using music, and using music as medicine is a perfect thing to do. So this lyric, the lyrics wake me my heart is feeling glad. That's not just about personal joy, It's about the collective awakening that we're experiencing together. You see, one of us rises, we all rises. So when one of us heals, we all heal a little bit more. We all heal a little bit more. So when I talk about I love what I do here, it lights me up. This is the part of this is my purpose because I do take personal moments in my life. That's all that I can do now and apply that to this. So hopefully that someone is able to relate and find some healing and some joy and some inspiration in this message and go find their own song that they can relate to, that they can find those healing moments in those songs and find their own self love. But I want to hear from you, my beautiful people, what songs carry healing for you? What mantras are you creating. I want to share your journey with our community using hashtag self season or self love and hashtag healing through music. And let's create a tapestry of transformation together, all right. Because remember, just like Bioproctor teaches us about changing paradise, and just like doctor Will showed us with personal mantras, our individual works create collective change. When we choose to heal ourselves, we make it easier for others to do the same. You see, your healing matters, your voice matters, in your journey matters, And together we are creating something so beautiful, so special, and so so amazing. Community. We're creating a community where transformation is contagious and where healing is shared with love. With love, and love multiplies so many beautiful people. Before we wrap up today's transformation too, say, I need to share something else that's powerful, that's been revealed to me. You know how God works, always showing us, showing me the way when we're ready to receive a message. Well, as I shared a little bit early today, while I come to the understanding that these transformed Tuesdays are meant for something special. They're meant to be a sacred space where we peel back the layers of music that can empower and heal us in these challenging times. So today we dove deep into earth winding fires on your face and the healing wisdom within the lyrics. And I'm excited to tell you that every Tuesday in this month, as a part of our Cultivating Self Compassion series, that I will exploring another powerful song and breaking it down and finding medicine in the music and speaking of divine time. And I had another incredible experience at my altar just this morning again, and I want to keep sharing with you. But I'm gonna share that with you next Tuesday. As I said before, but this, but the way that these revelations are flowing, the way that these songs are finding me, is all a part of a greater plan and that don I wants you to pay attention to the music that you all are listening to as well. I remember I talked about being aware, being I don't want to say woke, but being prepared. Yeah, tomorrow we're blessed with with our guests Darlene ben de Griped. I guess how you said she'll be joining us. She's a medical intuitive and a cosmic mediator who is going to help us find clarity in our health, relationship and life purposes. So y'all see how perfectly aligned that is. Like I'm seriously, what I say, things be happening to real time. All I can do is have a big smile on my face and laugh as I am watching my life on fold in front of my eyes, and as it's truly have been a year of rebirth for me. But also as were talking about rebirth, I want you to remember that I hear rebirth. Six month workbook is still available for down load. Use it to document these musical revelations, to track your healing journey, to record how these songs speak to your soul. Now there's blank pages in there that you can create that because remember I had a whole, a whole six months full of of topics and everything's driven. But God is using me. The way that He's using me is I said, I am as Vessel used me, as as he will. So before we close, I want to just do this. I want to do this. I want you all to take a deep berth. In with me. I want you to feel the power, feel the power of the music, the messages, the healing that we share today. I want you to feel your own power to transform, to heal, and to rise. So until next Tuesday, my beautiful souls, and tomorrow we will explore another song that can light our way, and remember, the music finds us when we need it. It finds us when it needs when we need it the most. The healing is in the lyrics, in the rhythm, and in the soul of every song that we're meant to hear.
