Inspirations
The messages from Maggie are channeled to her via her Higher Self, Guides and Angels. Maggie used to separate out her articles of choice with her messages from the Angels until she realized they are now all coming from a blended Source and none of which from one or the other. As we ascend we integrate more of our higher selves. Maggie receives these inspirations while in a higher state of awareness. The Angels contribute greatly to channeling these messages, as well as Maggie's Higher Self and Guides.
Connecting as a Mom
(also published in this months Soul Coaching Newsletter)
 There is an inner yearning for connection felt by us all. As Mom's we may feel guilty over a need to get out and be more connected to the outside world. Whether you are a house wife or a working Mom, it matters not. You will feel the call. No matter who you are it may become apparent that you desire connection. We are truly all connected and it is only in this reality that the illusion of separation exists. So it is nice to remind ourselves that we are truly One by getting out in the world and connecting.
Remember your time, energies and efforts are not wasted on your children. They gain so much from our efforts of loving, caring and compassion we give them. It is part of our Divine purpose to live the motherly role for our children. They need our guidance and energy so much. Not only do they need us, but we need them and that is a blessed connection in its own right. They teach us so very much. Simply watch a child and you will see the guidance they give US. They don't hold back on love and they certainly don't hold back on having their kind of fun! They haven't yet been conditioned into squelching the natural organic state of being in their joy. We can learn a lot from observing children. They are our teachers as much as we are their teachers.
You *can* do it. I know guilt may set in when you think of spending fun time away from your kids. And it seems you may be filled with even more guilt as a working Mom. You may think that you are already away from them all day and now you deserve more time away from the kids doing something you love? Insane, right? Wrong! You do not have to feel guilty or over burdened. There is balance even as a Mom. Especially as a Mom. We can do our best to get out of multi-tasking and into a more balanced life following a life of love, children, divine work and bliss. Our children will not suffer as long as you keep the process of balance and moderation in check. You are aloud to have a life with your kids and outside of your home. In fact, I recommend it!
If you've felt like you needed to move more into your joy or to get out there and connect more with people, but feel limited, you are blocking yourself. Your limited beliefs have led you astray. You are only limited if you believe you are. Your past, along with your observations as you grew up, in combination with social conditionings have built deep within you not-so-wonderful core beliefs and moved you into a negative limited state of being. But you CAN move out of that. Start now! Shift your consciousness and move into an open-minded, open way of being. Allow yourself to feel joy! It is within us all. You can have it. And sometimes a helpful trigger to release unwanted and unneeded core beliefs is having a wonderful Soul Journey or Past Life journey. If you are so pulled, I say go for it! The only thing you have to lose are limited beliefs and so much more to gain in being open to unlimited possibilities.
It is easier to be in that peaceful oneness even while toggling the craziness of raising kids, when following your bliss and not limiting your field of possibilities. You can go to that meditation class, yoga class, nature walk, art class, girls movie night, and so on, guilt-free. Your kids are healthy and happy with Dad or a babysitter while they watch Mom live a more balanced life! If you don't care for yourself, you will deplete your energy and move into resentment and hostility. Your love and care will be no good to your family if you are not truly coming from a place of divine love. To do that you need to have a life of balance and take care of YOU. You can provide a healthy example of caring for them, giving them your time and also affording yourself balanced nurturing time. Your soul needs this nurturing time daily.
 So my challenge for you is to take a few minutes a day and journal, meditate or write down something you truly want to pursue. Breathe. Think of that thing or many things you desire doing. Write them down and take one step towards your goals. That one step will easily and effortlessly lead to another step and another. Soon you are on a new adventure fulfilling your hearts desire. Your family will thrive and you will feel more energized, alive and in Divine presence now. And for extra credit truly let yourself be pampered on Mother's day or do one thing you enjoy! :)
Enjoy, live, laugh and love always!
Follow your bliss,

Happy Mother's Day to all you Mom's out there! And Happy May Day! May 1st is Beltane that encompasses celebrating fertility throughout the world. Some still hold the tradition of giving a potted flower for fertility and growth to each of their friends and loved ones on this day. Today is also a great day to make a new moon wish as we approach the full moon on May 9th. And I'm extra excited today, as I'm going to be seeing the Dalai Lama tomorrow! I didn't even know he was coming to our area. So today, I had finished my workout and energy connections and then sat a looked at the pond from our front window. Then I decided to close my eyes and ask the Divine if there was a message for me. Right then my sister calls me and lets me know that she is seeing him tomorrow. I felt that this was a strong sign that I needed to see the Dalai Lama. I couldn't ignore that. This should be a wonderful experience.
