Allowing Heaven to Help, Ann Albers, 4 June 2024

​Hi All,

This week the angels talk about the value of plugging into their love and I'll second that with my own experience lately. They've really been working with people lately on total self-acceptance and I'm seeing it change lives. Tips are included as always.

Have a blessed & beautiful week :)

Message from the Angels

My dear friends, we love you so very much,

Take a deep, slow breath and exhale very slowly. In so doing, you have just decided to love yourself. You have chosen to allow life and spirit to flow into your body, nourish your cells, encourage the cleansing flow of lymph, increase circulation, and invite us to come closer and help to create balance in your mind, body, and spirit. You have just made a strong statement to the universe, "I am open to receive life and love."

You didn't think of all these things. You didn't say these things. You simply took one deep, conscious, and deliberate breath.  However, your choice to do this sent out a vibration to the universe that called for spirit, life, and love to come into your physical body, soothe your mind, and help balance your emotions. One simple self-loving choice, dear ones, and there is so much benefit to you.

Likewise, every time you choose to simply accept yourself as you are, you are releasing resistance to love. When we speak of resistance, we are not talking about a mental blockage to love. We are talking about tuning into a lower vibration that blocks the unending flow of love from reaching you as strongly as it could.

Water, for example, is available in your faucet. It is ready to flow at all times. Much of the time, and for good reason, the faucet is off, thus resisting the flow of the water. When you open the faucet, you release all resistance, and the water that was there, just waiting, begins to flow.

Similarly, Divine love is always there, emanating from the Source, waiting for you to allow it to pour into your mind, body, and soul. Here is the good news. Any simple, self-loving, self-soothing, self-accepting, or other loving choice allows it to flow to you in the moment that you begin vibrating in the frequency of love. 

Even in your deepest grief, you can reach out for a cup of tea (or, for some of you, a glass of wine!), and this is a form of self-love at that moment. We know we've inspired some judgment as we say this. A glass of wine? How can that be loving when it is often a form of escape?  Well, dear ones, anything that helps you feel better—as long as it does no harm—can raise your vibration.

So many of you criticize yourself for your habits. "I spend too much. I drink too much. I eat too much. I sit around too much..." We understand that you realize there are other things you want to do, other versions of. yourself that you may want to become, but in reality, most of you are judging yourself by criteria others have impressed upon you.

What is too much, dear ones? Who gets to decide? Our answer is that you get to decide. You get to decide when something lifts you vs. when it begins to drag you down. You get to decide when something tastes good vs. when you start feeling you are not even tasting. You get to decide when spending feels like self-love vs. when it feels like filling an empty gap.

No one else gets to tell you what is right or wrong for you. You get to decide.

No one else walks in your shoes, lives in your body, or experiences your unique mind and feelings based on your very personal history and present moment.

No one, dear ones, knows better what is good for you or bad for you than your own inner authority. By all means take the opinions of others that you resonate with into account. Weigh them against your own feelings. If you want to eat healthier, for example, you might visit a nutritionist or study various experts online. Some of their recommendations might feel wonderful to you. That is a good clue that this is a good path for you. Some of their recommendations might feel too restrictive. Keep searching for ones that don't.

You can get fit by finding exercises that you love. You can lose weight by finding foods that taste good to you. You can be healthy and have a few glasses of wine if you have a metabolism that handles it. You know yourself better than anyone else does. You know your history, your body, and your own feelings about right and wrong. You, dear ones, have a direct-connect to the. Divine, and like every cell in your body, every bit of nature, you know what feels good in the moment and what does not.

Trust that.

In a given moment, all of creation is impulsed by the Divine toward its desires, as surely as the body impulses every cell. Both the Divine and physical impulses guide souls and cells toward greater harmony. Just as each cell receives unique "instructions" based on its purpose, needs, and relationship to other cells, each of you receives unique instructions based on your desires, needs, and relationships with other souls.

Dear ones, accept yourselves. Accept your feelings. Accept your quirks and so-called flaws with love. As you do so, the ones not rooted in love will evolve naturally, while the ones that are will remain.  If you love yourself enough to refrain from judging your spending and spend more than you have, then next time, you'll realize that you didn't feel so good and spend in moderation. Or perhaps your bills will motivate you to start a side business you've wanted to start but were not yet motivated to do!  Always, if you accept yourself as you are, with love, you will naturally and organically begin to recalibrate to the frequency of love, which can only bring good into your lives.

Breathe, dear friends, slowly and deeply. Receive our love. Receive our non-judgment. Receive our vision of your beautiful hearts and your love. Above all, receive the peace of knowing that no matter what you do, you can't stop the Divine and your angels from loving you. You can only receive it or not and it is as simple as making one self-loving, self-soothing, self-accepting, or loving choice at any given moment.

God Bless You! We love you so very much.

Message from Ann...

Hi Everyone,

There was a lot of tenderness transmitted with this week's angel message. They know Earth is a bumpy ride right now for many. They have been telling me that with all the love coming into the planet and all the resistance to it, things look like hot and cold fronts colliding. We're all seeing what happens when real hot and cold fronts collide, with the tornadoes plaguing the midwest this year. The energy looks a lot like that at times. One minute, you'll feel inspired and energized, and then you feel some other wave and can't get off the couch. A lot of sensitive souls I know are experiencing this. I, too, have been feeling endless energy one day, and the next, I'm napping. It is just intense.

However, the angels are working with everyone to realize that we can let the light in at any time, no matter what the world is doing.  I've been hearing them say, "Sit, breathe, receive," for decades now, but until recently wasn't doing it every day. It dawned on me after one low-energy week that I needed to start receiving for myself every day. Why not soak up the love that was being offered? I do a lot of things I enjoy and have many practices to keep myself on track, but when I got a little off, it occurred to me that sitting and receiving was the easiest way to recalibrate. It didn't take long to get back to joy. Spirit works quickly when we're open!

Now, faithfully, every day, for just two to three minutes, I sit, breathe, and receive. It feels delicious! Those few minutes charge me up like nothing else. In spite of a lot going on with people I care about, a ton of work, and the usual pile of things to handle, I feel pretty euphoric as of late. Receiving this way keeps me in a space to be a contribution to others.

We're human. We all forget to take care of ourselves from time to time, and we have all had times when we ignore our hearts until life or our bodies insist we pay attention. The good news is that even if you slowly slide away from your center for years, Spirit doesn't keep score and judge you. The angels don't say, "Well, you've been off for years, so you better work really hard to get us to help you! They never say, "You know better, and you messed up."  They just literally send us an energy that, if it were to be translated into words, would be a tender, sweet whisper, "We're here. We love you. Open to our love. We want to help you. We adore you..." There's no judgment and no punishment for whatever we think we did or didn't do. Just love.

Most of us can spare a minute or two a day to breathe and receive love, or do something kind for ouselves. Our conditioning, however, tells us that this is too little time and not enough work on our part to create effective change. Our programming tells us we have to earn everything, especially love. Those things may be true in the 3D sense, but not with Spirit. The angels are not thinking of us as solid matter. They know they can help shift our energy in a moment. They're not asking us to do any hard work, just to open the faucet in our hearts and receive. They're not demanding a thing from us to earn their love. They love us because it is their nature to love. They frequently say that the sun doesn't make us earn its shine! It just shines.  We open the curtains or not.

So when you feel off or not wonderful, sit, breathe, receive, and remind yourself that you own Spirit nothing for this love. It is their nature and their joy to love. It feels wonderful to them when you receive it. So do your angels a favor and let them love you a little every day! "Give Spirit a second," I like to say, "and they'll love you enough to begin changing your life!"

Here are a few totally simple tips to help you open up to love—easily and quickly:

1.  Practice Self-Acceptance

I know the angels have said this, but it bears repeating. When you catch yourself in the act of self-criticism, tell yourself, "I am who I am, and that's OK." You may not want to be who you are right now forever, but right now you are and that must be OK, or you block the love that can carry you past it.

For example, say you get upset. We all know better. None of us love that feeling. But you are who you are in this moment and that is OK. You are upset right now, and that is OK. You don't want to stay there, but you can love yourself right now by making a choice to accept your upset. You'll be amazed at how quickly your upsets transform when you just accept them and stop judging yourself. You'll have a little internal thunderstorm, rain yourself out of tears, and the inner sun will soon start to shine.

The angels aren't recommending we take our feelings out on others :) They're simply suggesting we accept ourselves without judgment so as to release our entanglement and struggle with the feelings we might otherwise judge.

2. Acknowledge your goodness more often

I talked about this in a prior newsletter. One day in the recent past, the angels had me acknowledge every simple, small, silly thing I did well! OMG! It was hilarious! "You put that silverware away with such love!" "you have so much appreciation for your coffee." On it went with them, reminding me to acknowledge every small, silly thing I did with love or kindness. The funny part was there were a whole lot of things to acknowledge that I usually would never even think of as significant, but they made the point clear—any and all love and appreciation are significant vibrations that the world can use right now.

Acknowledge yourself often!  We all become better people with positive reinforcement, even, or especially, when it comes from ourselves.

3. Take a few minutes to receive love each day

If you want to receive straight from the angels, you know the practice. Sit, breathe, and intend to receive. That's it. Your job is to breathe and relax into the breathing s much as you can. That's it. They'll do the rest.

If that isn't your cup of tea, find something that can be done quickly and easily that is.

Stand on the grass barefoot in the sunrise and inhale three times. 

Get your favorite morning beverage and inhale that with appreciation. 

Listen to one song that always lifts you up.

Light a candle and say to yourself a few times, "I honor the light within me and the light within all."

Flip open a book of wisdom or inspiration and read a few sentences to ponder, or get an app that sends you a kind message each day.

Truly, we can all find a few seconds to a few minutes a day to plug back into something that feels like love, and there is no greater use of our time in terms of "return on investment" than plugging into love.

These are wild times, to be sure, but the flow of love never wavers. It pours out from the Source and our angels in a steady stream, like that water behind the faucet, just waiting for us to open up in any small way we choose to let it flow into our mind, heart, body, and soul.

It doesn't need decades to fix life-long problems. It doesn't judge what you did or who you were thirty seconds ago. It just loves... now and now and now again.  And we can benefit greatly from letting it love us, just through an intent to do something that feels like opening to love, no matter how small, each day.

Have a blessed week,
Love,
Ann
