Be Your Own Body & Spirit Guard

     Unfortunately in life, there are some people who are happy when they see others fail.  Because of their own issues, they feel what they think is happy when they see someone make mistakes or fail in their endeavors.  These types of people are usually gossipers who say bad things about others.  They also act different behind your back and try to drive wedges between you and others who may help you succeed.  It is important that you are mindful of who you allow in your circle and mindful of who you spend your time with.  Yes, there may be times when due to work commitments, you have no other choice but share physical space with someone like this.  At these times, be cordial to the other person, but do not let them into your inner circle.  Keep topics of conversations light even when discussing things with people in your circle at work situations where there is someone who may not have your best interests in mind.  Save the heavier topics for when you are in a safe space.  Those who truly have your back will understand when you say you don't want to discuss it now, but would appreciate their input at a later time.
     Stand up for you.  Create healthy boundaries and don't allow the naysayer to cross those boundaries.  If they bring up or try to pry into an off limits topic, just say something like "I don't want to discuss that at this time." It is your job to be the bodyguard of your body, mind, and spirit.  You must discern who has your best interests at heart,  who does not really care one way or another, and who would like to see you make mistakes or fail.  When you are able to discern who has your best interest at heart, you will know who to have in your inner circle and by keeping others out, you will be guarding your body, mind, and spirit.
     Don't let another's negative thoughts take up space in your head.  As you are on your path to success, you may encounter people who will say things like "How do expect to make that happen?" or "That's never going to happen for you".  Dismiss their statements and move forward knowing you are doing what you have been Divinely guided to do.  It is not important anyone but you and the Divine understand the why's and how's of your purpose. You don't even need to understand all the hows and whys, just put in the hard work, follow the Divine guidance along your path, and keep moving forward.  God will fill in the details along the way.  Keep guarding your body, mind, and spirit, and all will be well.
Love & Light,
Margaret Phillips

October 2018 Newsletter

Sometimes people think "I will never be as confident as ___".  Would you like to know the secret of having confidence in yourself?   Set a goal and take a small step towards that goal.  Congratulate yourself for doing it- no negative judgement allowed here, just an acknowledgement of joy for taking the first step and more acknowledgement if you did it well.  As you congratulate yourself, you will feel better, be more confident (even if only a little bit), and feel motivated to keep moving forward.  As you continue taking small steps to move forward and congratulate yourself , you and others will find yourself as more confident the more you do this.  You will look back several months and years later and realize how much you have grown!

Message from the Angels
The Angels want you to know that they have heard you prayers.  They want you to think of them as your partners to help you achieve what you need and desire.  As you look at them as partners and are open to receiving their assistance, everything will fall into place and your prayers will be answered.  As you keep moving forward and expecting miracles to happen, they will happen and you will be blessed. Remember to thank your Angelic partners for their help along the way and show extra gratitude when your desires are materializing and have materialized.  Some people may feel threatened by your sudden good fortune/blessings, but remember you deserve them because you sought for Divine help to accompany your hard work. Do not allow the attitudes of others affect your attitude at this time and do not listen to those who will tell you "that's never going to happen" or you can repel what  you want.

Crystal Corner
Angelite is a blue and white stone, though the white is sometimes less visible unless you look up close like in this picture.  Angelite is great from increasing communication with the Angelic realm. It is a calming stone and can reduce fear and anxiety. It can also help shield you from negative energies.

Information You May Not Know
I have a free Facebook group called Angelic Inspiration & Guidance.  In this group I do daily affirmations and inspirational messages, as well as other uplifting things.  This group allows members of the group to post inspirational quotes and things including artwork, poetry, etc. and ask for prayers when they need them.  This group is a nonjudgmental zone and has members from various spiritual paths and religions in it.

Open Your Eyes and Truly See

     Sometimes if we are in a bad situation where we feel trapped we close our eyes as a defensive move.  We allow things to happen we shouldn't and may even pretend they aren't there.  As we go through our journey of life, we have different messages and things we are ready to see at different times. When we are ready to see things for what they really are, this is when acceptance, change, and growth occurs.  I believe this is especially true with domestic violence victims. 
     When I was married, there were many things I could not see at first because I wasn't ready to accept what had become of my life.  I had thought being married and having a caring husband would put my abusive childhood behind me and allow me to be happy.  Unfortunately, what my husband cared about was himself, and I missed all the signs because I wanted to believe my life had to have something better in store.   My husband would swear we had not had conversations I distinctly remembered having.  He would say things like "this isn't so bad" or "it can't be helped" or even "this is how it's supposed to be". Yes it was bad.  Yes it could be helped.  No it wasn't how it was supposed to be.  When you are and adult and have to move back in with your parents for a week until the next payday and take your husband and cats with you because through his addiction and addictive behaviors he had spent the money which should have been spent on heating oil, it is bad. He would keep me in a state of flip flopping.  According to him, most days I was making mountains out of molehills. Some days I was taking things too lightly.  Most of the time, I was not doing something or almost everything right or good enough for him.   He frequently belittled me, disrespected me, and made me think I was the one with problems.  My main problem was I did not have enough respect and love for myself to stop the abuse for more than a decade. 
      Thankfully, eventually through different situations, I was finally able to open my eyes and see what had really been going on.  I was able to see I wasn't the one with the majority of the problems.  Don't get me wrong, I was 21 when we were married and unsure of what a healthy relationship was, so I'm sure there were things I did wrong, but nowhere as many as he swore I did.  He contested the issue was with me because I wanted too much and wanted things to be perfect.  A home where the mortgage/rent is paid,  there is consistent heat in the winter, food in the fridge, and the ability to buy clothes when needed is not asking a lot, especially when we were both working full time. 
      After I left him, my eyes continued to be open even more. I was able to see where the pieces of the puzzle fit together, instead of looking at the picture on the puzzle box.and not know how to make sense of it.  A lot of the red flags I was too blind to see in the moment before and during the first few years of my marriage were blaring right in front of me. More importantly, I started to love and respect myself, realizing I did not deserve to be in abusive relationship. 
      I had a temporary speed bump/ trade off of sorts which lead to my second marriage, which ended after not quite 4 years as he was an abusive narcissist.  His abuse was more covert and more emotional and financial abuse.  I was aware the marriage would not be perfect, but I was hoping for a better situation.  Because of my circumstances at that time, I didn't want to see it how bad it could/would be. I hoped if I entered the marriage with good intentions, all would be well, which it wasn't.   
     As I worked with a therapist and read a lot of self help books after both marriages, I realized how valuable I was and realized that I was the only person who could make me happy. I also realized that God loved me and my life did have better things in store for me in the future, I just had to be patient, work on myself, and wait for Divine timing to align everything.  That timing is at work and continues to be at work.  As I continue to love and respect myself, my eyes are more open and I have good friends and a good life with my children.  I am able to work full time at my life purpose of helping others and it is an awesome feeling to be able to help people every day.  I don't allow those who don't know how to respect me or others take my time or be in my inner circle.  I try to keep my eyes fully open, so I may have the blessings waiting for me. 
     Are your eyes fully open? Do you truly love and respect yourself?  If not, are you ready to open your eyes?  Are you ready to start loving yourself? If you need help with changing your life for the better, contact me to set up an appointment for intuitive life coaching!
