How to Train Like an Athlete for True Inner Freedom (and True Abundance)
The Spiritual XX Games

In February of 2017, I started channelling. I know! It was weird at first, but now it’s totally normal, and something we all can do. What happened is I started asking questions during my meditations, and then I started getting answers, usually to bigger and better questions!
I know it sounds a little kooky, but it’s really not. We all have access to direct knowing, to profound wisdom, and to the deepest love from the Heart Center of the Heart Center of the Universe.
This message is about what we are really afraid of, and how we can be truly free.
My question: So I was watching a video last night of a man who was so filled with rage in Texas, and he was going after this Arab family and saying, “Trump will keep you out.” Of course, in social media, there are a lot of emotions right now, but the ones that I am specifically asking about are rage and fear. These manifest, of course, in our personal lives, and I believe what’s happening now is all of these un-integrated patterns are coming up to the surface. We see it on all possible levels, but it is the most intimidating on a global level, where we have people with legal jurisdiction — and illegal jurisdiction — and missiles and guns. But I feel it also personally, in my own world, and have made a personal commitment to working through my own patterns — and that’s what they feel like is patterns — of anger, fear, helplessness. So, in asking the best possible question…well, what IS the best question that we can ask around fear, helplessness, around injustice and anger, what are the questions we can ask to bring us in alignment, to bring us through the gateway to the new world?
Well, we say it a lot (laughs)
The very first place to go is breath
The very first place to go is SPACIOUSNESS
When you give anything spaciousness
When the winds of heaven can dance around it
You have a chance
So what you’re really asking first is
How do you make the DECISION to create spaciousness?
How do you make that a practice?
We invite you to do this first
We want you spend a minute, or two
Observing what happens when you go to this place (fear or anger)
It doesn’t necessarily have to be thinking
But see if you can imagine the condition of your body
Does your head feel congested?
Does your stomach hurt?
Does your blood race?
And choose a time, the most recent time that you felt this
Take yourself to that point just before it happened
And even if you can’t remember exactly what it felt like
Make a commitment right now, that when you feel it again
You will notice it
And this is what we need to say first
Is that this is a process
This is a practice
this is THE practice
This is the ONE
This is everything
And you can’t spend too much time on it
Meaning it is THAT important
You can drop everything else you are doing
And if this is part of YOUR patterning
You can choose this
You can pick this first
And we’d like to say that one simple recognition will shift it
And that’s possible…
It might be more likely that it takes practice
So take yourself to that moment
The best that you can remember
And ask yourself, were you past the point of WANTING to feel better?
In other words, had you already gone to the point where
The anger, the rage, the hurting felt better than the not hurting?
And if that’s the case
Then take a step back
And try to feel the next thing before
See if you get a picture
Let it be anything
It doesn’t have to “mean”” anything
Any kind of quality that you can recognize
Maybe your mind was trying to solve a problem
Maybe your mind was too busy
Think of the activity you were doing
Whether it was driving, packing, getting ready for work, making lunches
Whatever you were doing —
And now —
Remember what was in your mind
What was your mind doing?
How many things were you doing at once?
We think there is a really good chance
That if not right in that moment, but in the moments before…
Well, let’s take this other seemingly very different example
Of this man on the beach in Texas
Who was there, one would think, to enjoy himself and relax
And what triggered him was this Arab family on the beach
And so what might have gone on in his head?
The work pressures, the threat of economic frustrations?
The rhetoric of jobs being taken by foreigners?
The solving of a crisis in his own family?
Whatever series of events led him to this moment…
That in his mind, rather than being connected
To the love and source and beauty all around him
He was at the edge of crisis
Of trying to solve something
Maybe this was a vacation he planned…
Maybe he always feels on the precipice of collapse
And so this is really what we want you to see
Is you are always feeling on the precipice of collapse of some kind
You have always been spinning to the point of near madness
You have been marching along trying to solve unsolvable problems
And the reason this is so often caught up around money
Is because nowhere do most people feel more powerless than around money
It is the dominant conversation in most people’s minds
It is implied visually constantly
If you watch television, look at ads
Everything is a representation of what can be accomplished through money
When people talk about the health care (crisis), it’s a collapse of money,
It’s a shortage of money
And this is really a shortage of connection
You see, you have built this world based on this idea of security
That you can buy your way out of change
That you can buy your way out of aging
That you can buy your way out of loss
That you can buy your way out of rejection
That you can buy your way out of death
And so what this reaction is
Is the terror of change
The terror of the unknown
And your mind has been filling itself
With endless strategies to STOP change
And in that moment when you feel yourself lose control
It’s when there is a breaking open of the fact that you cannot stop change
You cannot stop loss
You cannot stop other people, exactly
And your body floods with these fight or flight hormones
Your brain floods, your heart races
And you ATTACK
So we want you to train like an athlete
We want you to train in connecting with the unchanging all-knowing all-loving presence of creation
And the simplest way to that, is through breath
It’s like a stop sign
So we want you to TRAIN for this
To train for connection
To train for spaciousness
And where this terror is coming from, as we said,
Is this terror of change
Of losing control
And, you know, there’s really only ever been one answer to this
Which is (hmmm)
The only place to rest
Is in the consciousness of God, of Love, of the Divine,
Of the perfect expression,
That we are always creating and that you are so deeply loved
That, you are imminent
You are emanating
You are endlessly capable
The divinity that flows through you is your birthright
You have always access to the presence of love
You have always and constant 24/7 round the clock access to perfect divine love
And so we want you to develop a program to practice this
Now if the breath does not resonate with you
Maybe something that will get you to breathe?
This is why running is good, walking is good, yoga is good
But those are longer practices
What we need you to concentrate on, focus on and train for
Is the shift
Is the CHOICE
And the way you do this is by doing it the first time
So make this commitment to yourself right now
The next time you feel — (rage building)
That you will feel the build up of what’s coming to plague you
Because you are a multi-dimensional being
You will feel it before it happens
It will have already happened
And as that comes to you
Take note of the signals
And take note of when in this process you can make a choice
Because if you get to the point of that “killing” energy (laughs)
You’re past the choice
And you won’t WANT to make the choice
So where in the process can you make that choice?
And THIS is the place to practice
Now we want you to do lots of preparation
We want you to do lots of self-care
We want you to have strong wellness rituals
Spiritual wellness
Spiritual fitness
Physical fitness
But it’s really all training for the MOMENTARY choice
That you can choose moment by moment to have your divine connection
To be a radiant being of love
Think of it as extreme spiritual fitness training
The X X games
And begin to shape your life in that way
That everything you’re doing is building stamina
That everything you’re doing is building your toolbox of conscious connection
Because THIS is the pathway to real abundance,
To real wealth
To real connection
When you no longer have to live in terror of change
When you know that no matter what you are feeling
That you are still loved and connected and
In another moment…
You’ll have another choice
This is the hardest to do in suffering
And sometimes the suffering will take you to another incarnation
And so what we’re asking you to do
Is recognize the boundless love
We’re not asking you to feel…
Uh…how do we say this…
The feeling of happiness is not necessarily the measure
Of connection, abundance and love
It’s spaciousness
It’s free will
It’s the ability to choose how you will engage
Disengage
Feel in the moment
What you will think about
What you will focus on
How you will treat yourself
How you will treat others
THIS is freedom
It’s not a billion dollars in the bank
It’s not even perfect health
Freedom is freedom moment by moment
And for this, we want you to train
~
And so we come to you, with everything
From the heart center of the heart center of the universe
