Signs You May Be Experiencing a Spiritual Awakening
Something has shifted, and you cannot quite name it. The life you built no longer fits the way it used to. Conversations that once felt fine now feel thin. You find yourself awake at two in the morning asking questions you did not use to ask.
If that sounds familiar, you are not unwell and you are not alone. You may be in the early part of a spiritual awakening.
What Is a Spiritual Awakening?
A spiritual awakening is a process of becoming more aware of yourself, your inner world, your connection to life, and something greater than your everyday experiences. It often involves questioning things you once believed, seeing life differently, and beginning to understand yourself on a deeper level.
You might start asking questions like:
Who am I beyond my job, relationships, and responsibilities?
What is my purpose in life?
Why do I feel disconnected from certain things that once made me happy?
Is there more to life than what I can see and touch?
What does it mean to truly be happy?
Am I living authentically, or am I simply doing what others expect of me?
A spiritual awakening does not necessarily mean becoming religious, following a particular belief system, or having supernatural experiences. Instead, it can be a deeply personal journey of self-discovery, awareness, and transformation.
In simple terms: a spiritual awakening is when you begin to see yourself and life through a different lens.
What Does a Spiritual Awakening Feel Like?
Everyone’s experience is different. Some people describe it as peaceful and beautiful, while others experience confusion, emotional discomfort, or uncertainty.
It is worth saying plainly, because people rarely hear it: an awakening is not always pleasant while it is happening. In my work I meet many people who assume that because the process feels unsettling, they must be doing it wrong. They are not. Discomfort is often a sign that something real is moving.
You may experience several of the following.
Emotional changes
Becoming more sensitive to your emotions
Feeling deeply moved by nature, music, or simple moments
Wanting more peace and less drama
Recognizing emotions you have been suppressing
Feeling compassion for yourself and others
The sensitivity catches people off guard most often. A song you have heard a hundred times suddenly undoes you. You cry at something small. This is not fragility, it is what happens when you stop holding feelings at arm’s length.
Mental changes
Questioning old beliefs and patterns
Becoming more curious about life
Thinking more deeply about your choices
Recognizing habits that no longer serve you
Wanting to understand yourself better
This stage can feel disorienting. Beliefs you inherited and never examined start to loosen. That is uncomfortable, and it is also exactly how growth begins.
Lifestyle changes
Desiring more time alone
Feeling less interested in superficial conversations
Wanting to spend more time outdoors
Becoming more intentional about relationships
Feeling drawn toward meditation, journaling, or mindfulness
The pull toward solitude surprises people, particularly those who have always thought of themselves as sociable. It usually is not withdrawal. It is a need for quiet enough to hear yourself.
Spiritual changes
Feeling a deeper connection to nature or humanity
Becoming curious about consciousness and existence
Feeling grateful for ordinary moments
Exploring spirituality, religion, or philosophical teachings
Developing a stronger sense of inner awareness
You Do Not Need to Experience All of These
Remember that you do not have to experience all of these to be going through a period of spiritual growth. Most people recognise themselves in a handful and not the rest. There is no checklist to complete and no correct pace.
Some people move through this over months. For others it unfolds across years, with long quiet stretches in between. Neither is better.
If This Is Where You Are
The most useful thing I can tell you is that you do not have to understand it all at once. Awakening is not a problem to be solved. It is something to be lived through with a bit of patience and some kindness toward yourself.
If it helps to talk it through with someone who works with this every day, that is part of what I do. I offer psychic mediumship readings and energy healing sessions at my studio in Lakewood, Colorado, and by Zoom for people across the Denver area and further afield. Many of the people who come to me are somewhere in the middle of exactly this process and simply want a little direction.
In my next post I will go further into what triggers a spiritual awakening and the common indicators that may show up for you.

What to Expect at a Psychic Medium Reading or Energy Healing Session
If you have never had a psychic medium reading before, it is natural to arrive with a little uncertainty. Most people do. They are not quite sure what the room will look like, whether they need to prepare anything, or what will actually happen once the session begins.
I would like to take that uncertainty away. Here is how I conduct my psychic mediumship readings and energy healing sessions at my studio in Lakewood, and what you can expect during our time together.
Psychic Mediumship Readings
Psychic mediumship readings are offered as a way to receive spiritual and emotional support, healing, and guidance along life's journey. Each session is unique to the individual and is centered around helping you receive insight, support, and direction related to your personal questions and life experiences.
I am an evidential medium. I draw upon my clairaudient, clairsentient, and clairvoyant abilities throughout our reading, which means I may receive specific information from your loved ones and spirit guides through hearing messages, seeing signs and symbols, and sensing the loving messages they would most like you to receive.
Being an evidential medium matters, and it is worth explaining what it means. Rather than offering general impressions, I aim to share details that carry recognisable evidence for you. A name. A habit. Something only you and that person would know. Those details are often what allow people to feel genuinely met, rather than simply comforted.
My intention is to create a safe, compassionate space where you can feel supported, connected, and open to whatever messages and guidance arise during your session.
Energy Healing Sessions
To support restorative health and promote emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being, I offer two energy healing techniques: Reiki and Reconnective Healing.
These powerful healing modalities may assist you in identifying and releasing self-limiting emotions and beliefs while supporting greater harmony and balance within the body.
During an energy healing session, you will comfortably lie face up on a massage table, close your eyes, and simply rest. There is nothing you need to do, and no experience is required. Many people find this the most restful half hour of their month.
What Is the Difference Between Reiki and Reconnective Healing?
This is the question I am asked most often, and the two really are different.
Reiki is an ancient practice that involves specific hand placements on the body. It is gentle, structured, and many people recognise it as deeply calming.
Reconnective Healing is primarily performed off the body, with a focus on the body's energy field rather than through touch. It works differently, and people often describe the sensation as distinctly its own.
I am trained in both, as a Reiki Master and a Reconnective Healing practitioner, and we can talk through which feels right for you. Some people have a clear preference. Others come without one and we decide together.
How Long Is a Session?
A full session is 75 minutes.
Within that time, the hands-on portion of an energy healing session lasts approximately 30 minutes. The remaining time is yours, and it matters just as much. We talk beforehand so I understand what has brought you, and we take time immediately afterward to debrief, reflect, and discuss your experience.
That closing conversation is often where things settle into place, so I never rush it.
How to Prepare for Your Session
You do not need to do anything to prepare. But if you would like to, a few things help.
Write down your questions beforehand. This helps to focus your energy. The more specific the questions, the more specific the answers. Write as many as you would like, with the two most important at the top of your list.
Write down the names of those in spirit you wish to invite to your session.
Come as you are. There is no right frame of mind to arrive in. People come grieving, curious, hopeful, skeptical, or simply worn out. All of those are welcome.
If you would like your reading recorded so you can return to it later, just ask. Many people find that valuable, because it is common to remember only part of what came through.
Where Sessions Take Place
My studio is at 1615 Reed Street in Lakewood, Colorado, in the 40 West Arts District, just north of West Colfax Avenue in the 40 West Studios building next to Sweet Bloom Coffee.
Sessions are also available by Zoom, wherever you are. Readings work just as well at a distance, and Reconnective Healing can be offered remotely too. For clients across the Denver area who would rather not make the drive, or for anyone further afield, this is a genuine option rather than a lesser one.
What I Hope You Take Away
My hope is that each session leaves you feeling supported, renewed, and more connected to your own inner sense of peace and guidance.
Whether you are coming to reconnect with someone you have lost, to find direction on a question you have been carrying, or simply because something told you it was time, you will be met with care and without judgment.
If you have a question I have not answered here, you are welcome to call me at 303-718-1738 before booking. I am always happy to talk it through first.
Awakening Hearts
Many of us living on Earth today sense that something beyond the life we know holds the answers our hearts have been searching for. Deep within, we feel there must be a greater purpose for our existence. Day after day, we wonder if there is meaning behind the suffering we witness, the uncertainty we face, and the emotional challenges that shape our lives.
Whether you've been walking a spiritual path for years or are just beginning to explore it, life can often feel overwhelming and uncertain. Yet those very feelings may be calling us toward a deeper understanding of ourselves and the world around us.
Some of us are empaths, naturally attuned to the energies and emotions of others. We experience our own feelings deeply while also absorbing the emotional currents that surround us. Others are highly intuitive or psychic, constantly trying to make sense of subtle impressions, inner knowing, and experiences that seem to extend beyond our five physical senses.
What many of us don't realize is that we are living at a remarkable time in human history—one in which greater awareness and expanded consciousness are becoming more accessible than ever before. Many spiritual traditions believe we are experiencing a profound awakening, one that is supporting both our individual growth and the evolution of humanity as a whole.
Judah, a group of angels channeled through Angie Hipple, offers this gentle reminder: "Sometimes all you want is for the process to be over. But the process is what it's all about. It's all about the journey—the exploration, the curiosity, and the wonder."
When we begin to understand this truth, we can release some of our fear about the changing energies we perceive in the world. Instead of resisting uncertainty, we can meet it with greater courage, curiosity, and trust, opening ourselves to the wisdom our souls are inviting us to discover in this very moment.
Awakening is not a destination but a lifelong journey of discovery. In my next companion blog, I'll share practical ways to cultivate a spiritual practice that can help you navigate that journey with greater peace, clarity, and trust.
Secrets to Happiness
A new year arrives with fresh energy and renewed hope.
We feel inspired as we imagine all the possibilities it might bring into our lives. Yet if 2025 did not bring us lasting happiness, can we truly expect 2026 to do so? The answer is yes, but only if we are willing to look inward and understand why happiness has felt incomplete before.
Human beings are often driven by a constant urge to push forward, to strive for more, and to measure ourselves against others. This endless pursuit can leave us feeling disillusioned, as if something is always missing. That quiet sense of “not enough” follows us into our careers, our relationships, and even our spiritual lives, convincing us that fulfillment lies just beyond our reach.
Many of us believe our desires, powered by strong emotions, will guide us toward happiness. We tell ourselves that if we achieve the next goal or acquire the next thing, we will finally feel content. But experience shows us otherwise. Emotion-driven desires may provide moments of pleasure, yet they rarely deliver the deep and lasting happiness we seek.
In Handbook to Higher Consciousness, Ken Keyes reminds us that desires are incredibly seductive. They disguise themselves as needs, whispering that happiness depends on their fulfillment.
One illusion quickly replaces another.
“If I can just become president of this corporation, I will be happy.”
“If I can earn another degree or gain more knowledge, I will be happy.”
“If I can find the right person to love, I will be happy.”
These thoughts feel convincing, yet they keep us trapped in a cycle of waiting. Waiting for the next achievement. Waiting for the next relationship. Waiting for happiness to arrive.
Keyes challenges us to see beyond this pattern. He explains that we often seek partners chosen by our insecurities or emotional dependencies. While these relationships may bring moments of joy, true fulfillment emerges only as we grow in awareness.
As our consciousness expands, we begin to understand a powerful truth:
Happiness does not come from finding the right person or reaching the perfect milestone. It comes from becoming the right person. When we shift our focus inward, cultivating self-awareness, compassion, and inner peace, happiness is no longer postponed to some future moment. It becomes something we carry with us.
In this new year, perhaps the greatest resolution we can make is not to chase happiness, but to create it within ourselves. We all carry negative emotions within us, yet we often fail to recognize how deeply our inner dialogue shapes our lives. These negative emotions are unreliable guides for effective action. They arise from accumulated emotional wounds and scars formed through past experiences.
This emotional conditioning can cause us to perceive other people and the world around us as threats to our well-being, even when no real danger exists.
When we view life through the clearer lens of higher consciousness, nothing appears as an emotional threat. Each of us faces daily challenges unique to our own lives, some more serious than others. You may be facing the loss of a job or a home.
Someone you love deeply may feel distant or more focused on things outside the relationship. You may be navigating health concerns or financial strain. Some of these problems have solutions, and some do not. At any moment, either you can take action or you cannot. However, when anxiety takes hold, it often causes us to withdraw from life itself. Once we retreat, we lose the ability to problem-solve from a higher, more expansive perspective.
The here and now is the true reality of our lives, and it is only from the conditions of the present moment that our futures are created. What dominates our conscious thoughts ultimately manifests in our lives. What we think, we create, for better or worse.
The first step toward raising awareness and elevating consciousness is learning to observe and guide our thoughts. The more aware we become of negative thinking, the more easily we can redirect our minds toward healthier, more constructive perspectives.
It is our higher thoughts that lead us to effective solutions. When we live from a state of love and acceptance toward ourselves, others, and life itself, we discover how to move beyond obstacles and uncover genuine happiness.
We stop endlessly questioning why things happen and instead recognize our power to create positive change, leading to more fulfilling lives.
Ken Keyes explored this concept in depth in his book Your Right to Be Happy. It is my hope that this short blog encourages you to become more mindful of your thoughts and the role they play in shaping your life.
Happy 2026 to everyone!
Dear Family and Friends . . .
At this time of year, I’m always interested in what key thinkers around the world are predicting for the year ahead. And what a year 2025 has been! Many of us are wondering: “Will we finally move out of this heavy, stressful energy next year?”
I’d like to offer a brief Numerology lesson to help you understand the energy we are leaving behind — and the energy we are moving into as we approach 2026. Numerology, an ancient Tibetan system, gives us insight into the cycles we are completing and the new cycles we are beginning. It truly is a fascinating time to be alive. We’ve become increasingly aware that all life operates in clearly defined cycles of time and space, which can be measured and understood through numbers. As Christine DeLorey writes in Life Cycles: Your Emotional Journey to Freedom and Happiness, numbers reveal the emotional and spiritual landscape of each year.
2025 has been a 9 Year, or a “9 Cycle.” What does that mean? The number 9 carries the energy of completion — the closing of systems, processes, relationships, or work experiences. And indeed, 2025 has been a year of challenge and closure for so many of us. In contrast, 2026 will be a 1 Year, or a “1 Cycle,” and the number 1 brings the energy of new beginnings. As channel Lee Carroll has shared, “In 2026, the light will shine brighter and life will begin to feel much better. We have been in the midst of a great shift, and we will gradually find ourselves emerging from the heavier energies of this transition.”
Over the years, I’ve given away countless copies of Christine DeLorey’s book Life Cycles to friends, family, and clients — so many that I eventually had to start giving out her website instead! I’ll be using her insights on the numerology of the 9 Year and the 1 Year to share more about what we can expect as we step into the new cycle ahead. There is nothing supernatural about the science of numerology. Numbers are natural elements — fundamental expressions of space and time that help us measure and understand our world. Numbers are the pulse of nature and her endless cycles.
Christine DeLorey explains in her book that we are living in a time when vast quantities of new information are opening to us on every level. Every field of knowledge is expanding into higher understanding, and the numbers through which we measure our world are no exception.
Let’s explore the energy of a “9 Year.” A 9 Year brings us to the completion of a nine-year cycle. It is a time of endings: completing life experiences, tying up unfinished business, reaching conclusions about our relationships and choices, and cleaning up what’s behind us. These actions prepare us to step into the next nine-year cycle with clarity. When we are mindful of what we want to finish — and what we still want to create — new opportunities naturally begin to open. But if we resist closure or avoid the difficult work of releasing what no longer serves us, we can enter the new year feeling stuck or unprepared.
The 9 Year offers a powerful opportunity for evolutionary growth. In this cycle, intellectual understanding alone is not enough. You learn that your feelings are what activate personal freedom — feelings that motivate your choices, actions, and direction. The 9 Year teaches you how to release the aspects of life that have brought unhappiness, dissatisfaction, or stagnation, and in doing so, transform into a wiser version of yourself. And 2025 has certainly brought many of us face-to-face with what needed to change.
Because of this emotional focus, the 9 Year can feel intense. We often find ourselves processing old emotions while navigating new situations in the present. This can make forward movements feel more challenging — but there is good news. The 1 Year is right around the corner, beginning January 1, 2026, and it brings a completely different, uplifting, and forward-moving energy.
Let’s explore the energy of a “1 Year.” The 1 Year is the beginning of a brand-new nine-year cycle — a fresh start that opens the door to the life we truly desire. It is a time of great change, positive beginnings, and renewed direction. After a year filled with deep emotion and confusion, many of my clients (and I myself!) felt stretched in every direction. Those energies can now be placed firmly in the past so new possibilities can emerge. In a 1 Year, it is essential to release any emotions still tied to old experiences.
Christine DeLorey describes the 1 Year as “a 12-month journey of new interests, experiences, goals, and understandings about life, about you, where you have been, where you are now, and where you would like to be.” This is also a year of courage — because it takes courage to make the changes that lead to a new existence in the world. Throughout this cycle, we learn self-awareness, individuality, and self-appreciation.
The 1 Year of 2026 is the year of the great shift — the long-awaited AWAKENING that so many souls have sensed and prepared for. Rapid changes will unfold worldwide. We will see humanity at its best and its worst as both light and dark energies rise into visibility. But most importantly, these conflicting energies will not last forever. So much good is emerging on the planet now that the old, dense vibrations that once dominated us will gradually lose their power and fall away. This year invites you to live more authentically. At times, this may make you feel out of sync with people in your inner circle. In a 1 Year, you instinctively know when it is time to disconnect from situations, relationships, or beliefs that no longer support your growth. Independence is a key theme, which can sometimes bring feelings of isolation or loneliness. Those you once relied on may become unavailable — and if that happens, it is a sign to embrace change and explore what else life has to offer. The 1 Year gives you the chance to reorient yourself and choose the direction you want to move in. However, challenges may appear if you resist change. Stay flexible, set new goals, and allow yourself to move away from what no longer works. Begin a new project this year or update an existing one to align with your new vision.
Much love and happiness can also be experienced during a 1 Year. New or deepened relationships are very possible — especially when you do not depend on another person for your happiness or success. Rely on yourself first. And as you move forward boldly, remember that others may also be carving out new paths of their own. Allow time to pass naturally between one experience and the next, and this 1 Year will bring pleasant surprises. Aim high, trust your goals, and never give up the pioneering spirit that is so vital during a 1 Year Cycle. Do not be discouraged by mistakes — they may not be mistakes at all, but steppingstones toward wisdom. A mistake is never a mistake if it teaches you something and isn’t repeated.
As we say goodbye to the energy of 2025 and welcome the fresh start of 2026, I hope you give yourself permission to dream again, to release what weighs you down, and to step toward what makes you feel alive. This is a year to trust yourself, to try new things, and to follow the quiet nudges of your intuition. You deserve a year filled with possibility, purpose, and new beginnings.
My hope is that this coming year opens doors you didn’t know were waiting for you, brings you peace where there once was struggle, and fills your life with deeper meaning, joy, and connection.
I’m grateful to be sharing this moment—and this new cycle—with all of you. Wishing you a beautiful, bright, and hopeful 2026.
A Season for Faith and Courage
I asked Spirit, “What do I, along with my family, clients, and friends, most need to honor within ourselves this holiday season?” The response surprised me with its clarity and simplicity. Spirit shared that what we need most right now is faith and courage.
As our world continues to shift in ways that feel unfamiliar, and as more change approaches, we are being called to trust that our lives are unfolding with purpose…and to meet each moment, especially the challenging ones, with a courageous heart.
The holidays tend to illuminate whatever is already tender within us, and many people are feeling that tenderness more acutely this year.
2025 has carried an emotional heaviness for so many—through deep transitions, unexpected shifts, and profound personal growth. This season may feel more demanding than usual, inviting us to stay faithful, steady, and brave as we navigate it.
Of course, the holidays also bring real beauty—moments of connection, laughter, generosity, and grace. Yet the very brightness of the season can also magnify our inner contrasts.
When the world around us is celebrating, feelings of loneliness, uncertainty, or grief may stand out more sharply. Even without major struggles, it’s easy to compare our lives to the idealized, polished holiday images we see everywhere and wonder if we’re falling short.
Family dynamics can also feel more intense this time of year. Old patterns tend to resurface, and our expectations often rise.
We may worry about being judged, misunderstood, or pulled back into roles and relationships we’ve worked hard to outgrow. Showing up authentically—with honesty, compassion, and healthy boundaries—requires real courage. So does loving others with openness and acceptance, even when it feels complicated.
Some are entering this season while carrying grief, tending to illness, or moving through personal losses. For others, the challenge is a quieter one—fatigue, anxiety, or simply feeling unlike themselves. The holidays often amplify emotional, social, and energetic pressures, affecting us physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. It’s no wonder anxiety can rise this time of year.
And then there is the larger world around us—full of uncertainty, conflicting energies, and rapid change. We’re inundated with unsettling news and global instability, and many people are undergoing profound personal shifts at the same time. When life feels unstable externally and transformative internally, it’s natural to feel heavy-hearted.
Many people are standing at the threshold of new chapters, sensing that they’ve outgrown old versions of themselves but not yet knowing what comes next. When you’re in a growth period or standing at the edge of life changes, it can feel heavy to carry so much in your heart. The holidays can even feel like a test of who you are becoming versus who you once were.
Smiling, being festive, hosting, and buying gifts—especially when you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, or major life changes behind the scenes—requires a deep, quiet strength.
It takes courage to be honest about how you’re truly doing and gentle with your heart. The holidays can activate childhood memories, past losses, or unresolved feelings, and these moments from the past may surface quietly or arrive with unexpected force.
In truth, we need courage this year because the holidays call us to be present, open, and connected, and sometimes forgiving, at a time when so many are healing, transforming, or navigating the unknown.
But we do not walk through this season alone.
Here are a few gentle ways to move through the season in a healthy way:
Keep expectations realistic—“good enough” is more than enough.
Protect your energy by saying no when you need to.
Hold onto simple routines that keep you grounded.
Honor your feelings, even if they don’t match the mood around you.
Set compassionate boundaries with people and plans.
Simplify your traditions and choose what truly nourishes you.
Create small moments of stillness—breathe, pray, reflect.
Stay connected to the people who make you feel safe and supported.
Let joy in when it comes, without forcing it.
Give yourself grace every single day.
I invite you to remember that you are surrounded by love from beyond the veil. Source—God—remains faithful to you, always.
Your angels and guides are close, ready to help, but they are waiting for your invitation to step in and assist you with any needs that you have at this time.
Speak your needs out loud. Ask God and your guides to step in and stay open to the gentle ways their support begins to unfold.
They love you deeply and stand ready to lift you, steady you, and bring you peace. I am here for you as well. I’ll soon share more about how we can cultivate courage this holiday season.
Until then, I send love from my heart to yours.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Embracing the Inevitable: Learning to Welcome Change By Steven E. Woods
There was a time in my life when even the hint of change would be very unsettling. I wanted things to stay familiar, stable, known. Whether it was a friendship, a routine, a spiritual practice, or even just the way I spent my free time, I found comfort in sameness. Change, by contrast, felt like a storm, unpredictable and unwelcome.
But over the years, life has shown me, again and again, that change is not a threat; it’s a certainty. It’s the one guarantee we’re given from the moment we take our first breath. Nothing stays the same. Not our bodies, not our relationships, not our beliefs, not even the things we once thought were permanent parts of who we are.
And slowly, with time (and a lot of stubborn resistance), I’ve begun to understand something essential: change doesn’t come to punish us. It comes to grow us.
The most difficult transitions I’ve faced, like saying goodbye to people I loved, letting go of work that once gave me purpose, and releasing spiritual practices that no longer spoke to me, were not failures. They were invitations-Invitations to evolve. To stretch, to become someone new.
But to do that, I had to stop treating change like a thief—and start seeing it as a guide.
So how do we learn to embrace change instead of fearing it?
1. Pause Before You Panic
When change appears, our first instinct is often fear. We want to grip tighter to what’s slipping away. But if we pause, take a breath, and ask, “What is this really about?”, we might find that the change isn’t here to break us, it’s here to realign us.
2. Let Go of the Myth of Control
This one is hard. We like to believe we’re in control of our lives, but control is often an illusion. What we can choose is how we respond. We can resist change and suffer or lean into it and adapt with curiosity.
3. Honor What’s Ending
Every change involves a loss of some kind. Acknowledge it. Mourn it, if you need to. Whether it’s a relationship, a role, or a ritual, give it the respect it deserves. Say thank you. Let it go with grace, not bitterness.
4. Stay Open to What’s Emerging
The space created by change isn’t empty; it’s fertile. It’s where new possibilities grow. When one chapter closes, another begins, even if the first few pages are unclear. Trust that something good can come, even if you don’t see it yet.
5. Remember Who You Are, Even as You Change
We often fear change because it threatens our sense of identity. But change doesn’t erase who you are. It reveals new layers. You’re still you—just a wiser, more expansive version.
For me, this shift in perspective hasn’t been quick or easy. I’ve had to unlearn a lot. I’ve had to sit in the discomfort of uncertainty. But every time I’ve leaned into change, instead of running from it, I’ve discovered something surprising: I’m stronger than I thought. More resilient. More alive.
Change is not the enemy. It’s life itself, moving us forward. And the more we resist it, the more we suffer. But when we welcome it, even with trembling hands—we begin to grow into the people we’re meant to be.
So now, when I sense change coming, I try not to brace against it. I take a deep breath. I listen. I let go of what no longer fits. And I say, “Okay. Let’s see where this takes me.”
Because life isn’t about staying the same. It’s about becoming. And that becoming begins the moment we stop fearing change and start dancing with it.
Blessings,
Steven

The Role of Lightworkers in Today’s World
Who Are Lightworkers?
Lightworkers are souls who have chosen to incarnate on Earth at this time to bring more love, truth, healing, and light into the world. They often feel a deep sense of mission, even when the path isn't always clear. Whether you identify as an intuitive healer, spiritual guide, life coach, energy worker, teacher, counselor, or empath, you are part of a growing wave of awakening souls anchoring a new frequency on the planet.
Why Now?
We are living in a time of profound planetary transformation. Old systems are breaking down, internally and externally, making space for a more conscious, heart-centered way of living. This period of global shift can be disorienting and emotionally intense, which is why the presence of Lightworkers is so vital. You are not here by accident. You are here on purpose, by choice and with purpose. And most importantly, you are needed now.
What Does a Lightworker “Do”?
The role of a Lightworker is less about “doing” and more about “being”. Even if you never speak a word about spirituality, your frequency is your offering.
Lightworkers often:
- Hold space for healing through compassion and presence
- Transmit peace, even in chaotic environments
- Offer guidance, whether through intuitive readings, energy healing, or teaching
- Awaken others simply by being authentic and aligned
- Anchor light in dark or dense situations
- Serve as bridges between the seen and unseen, the earthly and the divine
Facing Resistance as a Lightworker
Being a Lightworker isn’t always easy. You may feel the pain of the world more deeply. You may have gone through intense personal challenges that cracked your heart open. You may question your worth or feel isolated in a world that sometimes doesn’t understand your gifts. Know this: Your light is needed, even when you don’t feel radiant.
A Loving Reminder
You are not just observing the shift. You are part of the shift. Your light, your presence, your willingness to walk the path of awakening—it ripples out further than you know. By being present, loving and kind when you are out in the world or home with your families can assure you that you are making a difference.
A Further Message from Lee Carroll, Original Channel for Kryon
Your Light Helps! It doesn’t matter what you do! Your light helps this planet, not your works. Your search for who you are helps this planet. Even walking through the grocery store and smiling at those you meet helps this planet. That’s how powerful you are! ~Message from KRYON
Who is Kryon? A loving, benevolent Spirit energy that offers teachings on human evolution, spirituality, and the shifting energies of Earth.
With gratitude,

It is said that you enter your Earth life alone and leave this life alone. Nothing could be further from the truth as you have master guides and angels who are with you from the moment you take your first breath and are the first to welcome you home when this life is through. In moments of quiet, talk to us, your guides, and let us know what you need, what you wish to have happen in your life, and what your greatest dreams are, for we are ready to be of service. We wish you peace and love on this day. —Channel from Spirit by Jane Marino
