13. Faith And That Mustard Seed

17. Green Lights Versus Gray Lights

How do we keep moving through fear when it's taking over? We can either get stuck or do that thing we want to do—regardless of fear, other people's beliefs, our own beliefs, and the things pulling us down. We discuss the agreement: "Be impeccable with your word" from Don Miguel Ruiz's book, The Four Agreements. How can we plant seeds in people's lives by choosing our words and thoughts mindfully? It's the seeds we plant that matter. You can plant a good seed or a bad seed. Remembering to stop seeds of negative thoughts in your mind and replace them with loving thoughts. Other topics mentioned: * Unseen suffering (not posted on social media) * Projection and being projected onto * Owning our beliefs and letting them go * Retraining our minds * Alchemy We talk about what it really means to not take anything personally (another one of Ruiz's agreements).  It's not how people treat you that matters, it's what you believe about yourself. Even if someone points out a "weakness" of yours, you can let that go at any time, and remember you are pure spirit, pure awareness. Those people who judge you may be in fear and you don't have to take on their energy. River shares her experience with this—and we discuss tools to stop the mind when it wants to get on that negative train. Why are low vibe states not healthy? And will your mind derail you when you're following your dreams and challenging fearful unconscious beliefs?  And then Annie talks about a message she received recently... green lights versus gray lights.

16. Authenticity, NDEs and More About Angels

How can I be more authentic?  How do I stay true to myself & also true to spirit? Today we talk more about “A Little Bit Of Angels” by Elaine Clayton, and we share how angels are giving us messages and also bringing us a sense of peace. River talks about Not Knowing, and the importance of this.  What it means and how A Course in Miracles describes it. And then we discuss choice.  How can we Not Know, be authentic, make choices, without giving up free will and also without letting our minds take over.  It’s a free for all. We don’t know anything but we have to make decisions and own our thoughts and our choices.  How is this possible? This and more we discuss today.  (With NDEs sprinkled throughout—because they just seem to make everything better.)  Join us and find solace in the confusion of spiritual “teachings” and all the things we want to learn and unlearn.  Who put us in charge? We don’t know but we are. And we’re not.

15. A Little Bit Of Angels + Some Crying

Angel messages and true guidance. How can we trust we're being guided? Are there angels around us? Can they help us? Annie and River discuss the book, A Little Bit of Angels, by Elaine Clayton, as they process their life and how they can open up to guidance in whatever form it takes. There are tears, there are answers, and then Annie says, "it's like my soul had a chill." They play around with a fun practice the book offers right in the beginning. They talk about the messages that are coming for them and how to understand them. And they learn—a little bit about grace. Grace for ourselves—right now. However we are. In this moment. With all of our pain and struggles and hurts. Grace for humanity—for the pain others have gone through or are going through now. Grace. ---------------------------- Resources mentioned:  * One Life (2023 movie) * A Little Bit of Angels by Elaine Clayton "If we can be dramatic at times and feel deeply lost or ruined, then we need to be just as dramatic about the wispy, gold and silver, silent, unseen, magical presence of tender mercies upon us too.  For every little worry you have, put a wish on it for love, for kindness, for sweetness.  It is part of the human condition to suffer and yet there is that within us that cannot be destroyed—our soul's presence."  - Elaine Clayton

14. Discussion: The Midnight Library

We enter our lives hoping for the best. But what about that one choice that took us down a different road... and the regrets that followed? If we undid it, would we be happier? Or would we be living a life that wasn't really ours? Annie and River discuss Matt Haig's  novel, The Midnight Library, and what they learned from it. Regrets, choices, new choices, more regrets, and a life that turned out to be not-so-much-the-hero's-journey. Can we get back the life we missed? Would we want to? What regrets do we still have and how can we let them go? Without a "Midnight Library"? Join us as we explore this and themes of forgiveness, perspective, and living the life that's right in front of us.

13. Faith And That Mustard Seed

Guidance. It's all about the right guidance. Or is it? Annie and River talk about this and more, and then they remember that they have to have faith when nothing makes sense.  Today we explore how to have grace with ourselves when we don't know which way to go. Annie talks about a new favorite book, The Midnight Library, and River talks about how she has so many regrets already while "attempting" to raise her teenage son. How do we know if we aren't making decisions that negatively impact others? How do we know we are choosing Our Highest Life Path while embodied in this one little (but BIG) lifetime?
