Shining your Light!
(You’re Never Alone)

There are many times in my life that I have thought about something—and “it happened.” I first had this awareness somewhere in the early eighties. My first reaction is, oh shit, (sorry) I’d better be careful, because what I think about happens!

Fast forward to 2021. I know now that I am connected to the divine energies that surround all of us in a bubble of Love. My entourage travels with me whenever I go, and I feel this presence especially in the car when I am about to embark on a long journey. I know we are linked, by something called the field. We are cared for—watched over and draw the lessons we need for the growth of our soul. We stood in line to get here afterall! I assume, with no proof, that it radiates out in an instantaneous multidimensional energetic way and the divine collective receives this knowledge and wisdom from our own personal learning experiences here on the Earth plane contained within this fourth-fifth dimension. The Universe always says, YES.

If we create our own reality—and the “transmissions” are given to us via blocks of thought, imagining, dreams, and those random ideas that just pop into our minds—it is therefore a two-way street—and we are never alone. In fact, I understand that’s why babies don’t talk right away—because they have guides, angels and ascended masters that accompany them—and they are never alone. A cosmic secret. I would say, it’s kind of an integration and orientation from our multidimensional “selves” to our dense 4D physical body. How odd it must feel being so contained after such vastness upon returning to the physical earth!

I preface the lifestyle piece this way, only to say that during this life journey—we seem to forget our magnificence. We forget with purposeful and planned cosmic amnesia who we really are and that we are never without guidance or support—24/7. (And, it was with our full agreement!)

If you can accept this premise—then, you can agree that we have a divine light that we all carry inside. We are born with it. It is special. We are special. (You can research the fusion of chromosome two.) When we shine our Light, we add to the shift of consciousness. When we shine our divine light brightly, we assist in the awakening and help push back the fear. Light is active. Dark is passive. You can shine a light into darkness but you cannot shine darkness into light.

The choice of Love or fear is always ours. What do we choose? What do you choose? It is an empowering alternative to the small physical alternative and what men and women of control try to convince us of. For if we recognize our divine roots and our divine connection, we can walk anywhere knowing that we are protected—always. 

When we realize we are not alone, we allow for the discovery of our true cosmologically-aligned self. We attract like-minded beings; we attract our “tribe”. We give allowance for the revelation of what the mystics, masters and shamans received. We enter and are connected through the vibrational bandwidth with a community of like-minded beings; the visionary community that is greater than the sum total of our individual parts. We recognize our Light as the true power source that shines upon us—within us—to which we are a part. The two cannot be separate.

This is who we are. Not of an ego that yells, “I am so great, look at me”, but a softness—a subtle energy in which others gravitate to your company and your wisdom—because it is of love, compassion and kindness. Shine your divine beauty. Align your physical health, with your emotional, spiritual and mindful knowing. Go Shine YOUR Light!
In Love and Light,

What Does this mean? Decoding 101
Decoding messages from us to us is something that is coming to light and seeing its way into the mainstream--slowly. There is a connection between our physical health challenges and our mind and spirit. We cannot ignore those other parts of ourselves. We are emotional spiritual multidimensional humans. And, these physical dis-eases indicate we are "out of balance," something is "off kilter." Dis-ease alerts us that there are deep unresolved emotional blocks holding emotional angst at some level. Are we the brave ones to step up to heal our lineage? What was the emotional trauma we experienced as a child? What was so terrible, we have simply blocked it out? The conscious mind likes to ignore and repress that shadow that lurks within. However, our smart body, our innate, and intuition part of the subconscious and cellular memory remembers everything. In 2020, we will explore, just briefly the most common imbalances lying below the surface--a gift waiting to be seen and healed--for good! ❤️


Infections
~Martel

Infection is defined by the localized or generalized development of pathogenic germs in the organism, whether they are bacteria, viruses, fungi, or parasites. This state occurs when the immune system is unable to combat this invading germ.

This germ can be related in my life to a situation or a person with whom I am experiencing an inner conflict about which I have spoken to no one. As it has not been resolved, it will appear suddenly in the form of an infection. An acute infection follows a violent but short-lived emotion. 

A chronic infection refers to a very long-standing emotion. I had to make compromises to remain in balance, but now I must make a choice, because this indecisiveness and inaction are taking up all my energy and I must draw from my reserves. I willingly curtailed my own freedom to accommodate others, but I can’t do it any longer. The fact of experiencing irritation or disruption weakens my immune system, which can’t prevent the invasion from taking place. I must ask myself the question:

  1. “What is irritating or affecting me so deeply?”
  2. What is this conflicted tension I am feeling at work or in my family and that is disturbing me so?
  3. What is infecting my life to the point that I can no longer protect myself adequately?
  4. Am I afraid or vulnerable because of a situation or a person that is poisoning my life?

An infection indicates that there has been an accumulation of sad feelings and worries over a long period of time. The infection appears when “I can’t take it any longer.” There is a conflict between two aspects of my personality. This is reflected in my life where there are definitely one or several situations that must also change and evolve so that I may recover inner peace.
An infection often occurs following a weakening of my immune system, which means that it is my Love for myself that is involved. I must ask myself what attitudes and thoughts I must change or what actions I must take to bring more Love into my life. As I know that happy people have a strong immune system, I do my best for Love to grow in me so that Love will become my shield and protection.

I accept to move from my head to my heart to clean up my life, ‘disinfect’ it and let go of the attitudes and behavior that are beneficial for me. 💖

"You are Safe & Protected at All Times"

🌿
You are protected at all times. Trust that! The physical, emotional, and psychic barriers you've erected to protect yourself from past hurts and wounds are simply no longer needed. You've moved beyond your need for the illusion of safety that these habitual defenses have provided. It's time to trust that Spirit is always available to aid in your protection when you really need it.

Relaxing these barriers, and knowing that they're accessible if you really need them, leaves you open to love, both giving and receiving--especially to the ones you're closest to. Don't hold back, clutching to some obscure fear that others won't love you back. Be outrageous in expressing your affection for those you love, and know that your family ultimately extends beyond any lines drawn by heredity, race, or species. All of us beings on this planet are family--whether human, animal, or plant--and the more you love, the more love finds you. Take good care!

🍃 Blackberry-Lavender Crème Brȗlée🍃

Bon Appetite!

Blackberry-Lavender Crème Brȗlée

YIELD: 6-8 Servings

One of my favorite things about summers in the Pacific Northwest is the wild Himalayan blackberries, which grow unashamedly untamed along roads, fences and pretty much anywhere they can get a hold. I loved picking them as an adolescent not far from the house--bringing them home and making a fresh blackberry pie. This passion continues. However, this year on my visit, I drove by numerous lavender farms, and stopped at one, called the Purple Robe, which featured the aromatic English variety--offering culinary lavender for sale in their gift shop. How could I resist? This recipe originally called for blueberries, but the local u-pick farm remained closed again this year--and as the blackberries began to ripen, they became the obvious choice for my culinary creativity. This is a classic and timeless dessert and has always been a favorite of mine. I hope you will enjoy it as well!

Ingredients

3 1/2 cups heavy cream, organic (whipping cream)

 3/4 cup white sugar+additional for caramelizing

1 teaspoon culinary lavender 

1/8 teapoon vanilla

8 organic egg yolks

Pinch of salt (aprox. 1/8 tsp.)

1 cup fresh blackberries, +additional for garnish

Directions
  1. Position the rack in the center of your oven and preheat to 300ºF. Arrange your ramekins or small shallow baking dishes in a large casserole dish.
  2. Add approximately 10-15 fresh blackberries to each ramekin, depending on size of your chosen creme brûlée dish(es).
  3. Fill your electric kettle with water and bring to a boil.
  4. In a 2-quart saucepan over medium-low heat, combine the cream, ¾ cup of sugar, lavender, and vanilla. Stir to dissolve the sugar and heat cream just until the boiling point, and steam begins to rise from the surface. Bubbles will form around outside edge of your cream mixture. Remove from heat and set aside to cool, about 15 minutes.
  5. While your cream mixture is cooling, separate your eggs, and whisk yolks together in a large bowl, add your pitch of salt.
  6. Gradually combine the warm cream, a little at a time, to the yolks, whisking slowly until fully blended.
  7. Pour the mixture through a fine mesh sieve set over a clean bowl. Next divide the mixture into your ramekins, using a ladle. Place your ramekins into your casserole dish and carefully add your reserved boiling water half way up the sides of your ramekins.
  8. Cover loosely with aluminum foil. Carefully place the casserole dish on oven rack in your preheated oven. Bake until the edges have set but the center still jiggles slightly when the ramekin is gently shaken, about 35 to 45 minutes. Remove from the oven, take off foil and carefully lift your ramekins from the hot water bath. Let cool on a rack for 30 minutes. Cover ramekins with saran wrap and place in fridge until ready to serve--at least four hours or until throughly chilled. Custards will keep fresh refrigerated for up to 3 days. When ready to serve, sprinkle 1-2 tbsp of sugar evenly on each custard dessert. Use a kitchen blowtorch or the broiler to evenly melt and caramelize the sugar. Serve immediately.

Cathy's notes: This is not a difficult dessert. It just involves a few steps. My challenge was adapting to an unfamiliar oven. I did not have a torch for burning/caramelizing the sugar with me--and normally the broiler does the trick. The goal is to create that hard caramel crust over the custard, just before serving. The shards were there, but it was not as hard as I like. I mention this, as it still received great reviews from Linda. The layers of flavor and smooth-creamy texture were as good as any high-end restaurant. For those who seek a deeper connection with the kitchen and their culinary skills, you are welcome to use a vanilla bean. Simply slice the bean and scrape the contents into the heavy cream mixture. If you live in a place that has another variety of berry that you'd like to try--say Oregon--and the relationship the Oregonians have with their Marionberry--I would encourage your exploration. Also, as one last important point, milk or half and half will not give the results of a smooth velvety custard. One must use Heavy whipping cream!

The Illusion of Control

I think we have as much control as being strapped into a big roller coaster going at full speed and wondering when the ride will end—enduring the dips and curves and loop de loops. Our hair is blowing in our eyes and our sunglasses are flying off our face somewhere into coaster land. And then we do it again. I think as souls—we do this too. But, just like the roller-coaster ride—we really don’t have control when we climb aboard, and the control master pushes the red button “GO”. Instead, of a roller-coaster(Click)

Biological Decoding Here Today
Conflicts and trauma are sometimes obvious and sometimes not and make their presence known to us as dis-ease and imbalance in our lives; manifesting in our body.  Weight issues or acne are obvious to most, but what are the traumas, loyalties and imbalances locked away in diabetes, heart disease, cancer, or behind simple allergies and minor illnesses given labels or the diagnosis's we receive at the doctor's office? Do you want healing or just relief? 

The premise is easy. Disease and sicknesses are "nothing more" than emotional conflict(s) or trauma, --lessons to learn (that may be passed down from our ancestors) running in an "invisible" field of energy unknown or unrealized to us until it emerges as our brain's (the ultimate computer) solution for the disturbance deep within our psyche. More simply, the first law of Biological Decoding states: "Every pain or disease originates from a conflict. The conflict is an unexpected, highly acute, and isolating shock that occurs simultaneously in the PSYCHE, the BRAIN, and part of the BODY that corresponds to the type of conflict. Discovering the conflict aids the brain in sending messages to repair the body".

If we are human, we all have unresolved emotional conflicts. Heal them for yourselves--heal them for your kids and break the pattern. Biological Decoding goes hand-in-hand with our allopathic medicine today which addresses the mechanical aspects of our disease.

How can I help you today?

The Biology of Decoding is an amazing tool to assist in the discovery of the root cause of dis-ease.  This discovery and decoding opens the door to healing, deepens spiritual understanding of who we are and releases limiting beliefs and patterns.

"If the mind doth bend, disease can end."
