How to Anchor Your I AM Presence
Living in the present moment means to live in your heart. One cannot be present when one is run by one’s lower mind, which keeps human beings locked into the 3-D matrix of the ego-mind-prison. Drop and bow your head into your heart and watch the magic happen. A humble heart I AM.
Your heart is the only place of presence, of your I AM presence. Your heart is the universal connector. Time is indeed an illusion. Through presence one becomes boundless, limitless, infinite. In that space, all is possible, this is what is referred to as the 5th dimension, where all possibilities reside.
The heart space is also known as the space of all miracles. As one surrenders one’s mind to the heart space, everything opens and in that openness, that allowing frequency, in that surrender, all comes into soul alignment effortlessly.
In the space of presence there is no effort involved. All is happening in the flow. This is also the space of your soul, your higher self, which are other words to describe the I AM which does not dwell in time.
This is the power of those times on Earth as humanity goes through the Ascension awakening journey, as humanity ascends to the space of the heart, the 4th chakra. When one lives in that space, it automatically balances all other 12 chakras, below and above. Keeping the focus on the heart space is crucial to live a balanced, stable, healthy and grounded life as an ascended human being.
The breath is essential to being in the present. It will automatically bring you here and now.
The Power of Affirmations
Using affirmations will support you in being in the here and now. In a simple breathing exercise, allow yourself to take a deep breath in, holding for a few seconds, mentally saying to yourself, I am here and now or I am grounded in my heart. Feel the energetic shift and all of your energies coming back into your physical body. Anchor through the soles of your feet into the heart of Mother Earth. And there you are here and now. This is such a simple thing to do, yet one often forgets and can always use a kind reminder.
Be in the Present
Another easy tool to use to be in the present is to sit and be in a space of gratitude with your hands over your heart chakra. Having goals and ambition is great yet if one is always running after the next goal, one is missing the point of this human experience which is to enjoy what is. Things can always get better or be improved, yet by being in a space of gratitude for what is and what is already given, one magnetizes more good into one’s life vortex effortlessly. The universe-Creation is vibration. Vibrate gratitude and more good will spin into your vortex. Simple. Try it for yourself.
Follow Your Heart
Following your heart will always have you flowing in the moment and with presence, as the heart knows only the now. Follow your bliss, trust your intuition, do what makes your heart sing, trust and believe in yourself and you will look back at your life saying “Wow, I have had an amazing ride on Earth living in my heart as my soul!”
Trust the Divine Order
Another key is to apply patience and trust the divine timing and order of all things. For those of you who are visionaries you can often see things in the future and become frustrated when your Earth Reality has not caught up to those visions. Patience is essential. All shall come to pass in divine soul timing. Remembering that you might on a soul level be prompted to grow in certain aspect of self and of your Earth life before those visions can manifest. Your whole vibration needs to adjust to that vision of reality so you can actually enjoy that reality. Sometime what we wish for and what we are in truth capable of easily absorbing or experiencing are two different universes. It is very much like a marathon athlete. Before he or she can run to the finish line, training is required and appropriate.
Grounding or Earthing
Grounding or earthing is another tool you can practice daily. This is the tool by excellence as the Ascension Frequencies awaken within more and more humans on Planet Earth Gaia, the Higher Centers can get highly activated and at times over-activated. When we feel jittery, like wanting to jump up and down and not being able to sit in place. Simply sit on Mother Earth Gaia, breathing long and deep or lay on her body and surrender. Allow her energy field to balance you and transmute any lower energies through her unconditional love that is not of your I AM presence, your true Self.
Energy is energy, it is neither good or bad, it simply needs to be channeled properly. All is Energy, it is nothing personal. You have been given a human body temple and all the Know-How Teachings are available for All now. Know Thyself!
Listen to Your Intuition
Remember that your intuitive apparatus, your inner compass and knowing, is the greatest tool to navigate this Earth reality space-time-continuum. Learn to pay attention to the way you feel. Ask your body what it needs to feel balanced and anchored. It will always respond to you through hunches, sudden desires (certain foods or activities), synchronicities or divine messages through others and 3-D reality. Pay attention. Listen.
Know Thyself
This is when one goes deeper and deeper into self-mastery, into knowing thyself. The power of listening. The soul whispers and can only be heard within the space of inner silence, the space of the open heart. Through silent meditation practice, contemplation into places of nature where one can easily let go of Earth reality yet tune into higher and deeper dimensions within. Along the path one will be able to achieve this state of presence and deep listening whilst remaining fully present and embodied within one physical body temple. It is simply practice.
Try anchoring your energy by visualizing roots, golden roots coming from the root chakra going through the legs and soles of the feet, tapping and merging into the crystalline structure of Mother Earth Gaia and reaching to her Emerald heart, feeling anchored and grounded.
Another easy visualization to root yourself is to visualize your root chakra shining a bright Ruby Red. Your root chakra is your home chakra. Eating root chakra healing foods can also help you feel grounded and at home in your body.
Cold Water Anchoring
Putting cold water over your feet, ankles, wrists, top of your head and ears will also help you be present and anchored in your body. After meditation or any astral travel always make sure you come back to your home station – your body. The purpose of opening up the higher centers is to liberate you, yes, and to anchor those higher frequencies of love and light on Earth Gaia. Stay present and remain sovereign of your body-temple.
Remember the power of visualization. You are in command of your inner computer. As one walks the path of self-mastery and enlightenment, one simply remembers how to manage one’s energy. This is what it is about. Tuning out of the 3-D chaos-drama to only see-hear-feel the symphony of Souls dancing in divine order on the spiral of Eternity as one. And so be it!

How to Follow Your Dreams
The Seven of Cups is one of my favorite tarot cards. It represents dreams flowing to us. Not just those we actively pursue but those set within our destiny with no effort or exertion required.
As children we follow these passionate impulses without fear or hesitation. The world, our parents and society slowly dismiss these destinies as fanciful and set us on more productive pursuits, thus squashing that which is most innate within our hearts.
To follow your dreams is not the stuff of legend but the very purpose of life. However, you can recapture that destiny which allows you to fulfill the illustrious nature of your true being.
AN INVITATION TO REMEMBER
How do we begin to find our dreams if they have slipped from us? While some blessed souls may have it charted out with great focus, others may find dreams to be a bit elusive slowly fading from our view. Rarely do we have parents actively championing our dreams, inserting instead their own morals and issues to help us avoid their missteps. Yes, this is done from love, but rarely from awareness.
The “why,” the logic, often obfuscates the seed of the dream. “How will I get there?” or “Who will be interested in hearing what I have to say?” shades the passion. Vulnerability, fear and doubt set in.
To recapture that which has always been with us may require creative exercises of daydreaming. What was it that excited you as child? What were the longings of the innocent heart before practicality was interjected? Passion and curiosity are the surest ways to find your abandoned dreams.
We are drawn to those things that match our destiny. Like some phantom limb, we can always feel them when we seek them. Find the whisperings and this is the key to find the dreams long forgotten. Regardless of the sensibility, seize the dream and breathe life into it. Even if this is not the ultimate path, these curiosities will bring you home.
GENTLER THAN YOU EXPECT
Expectations will likely pulverize the dream. Fearless pursuit and relentless determination are no way to chase your dreams. Inherent in the chase, is the disappointment or the exhilaration, both addictive. Chasing is not the way.
Dreams do not like to be quantified and work outside of the realm of logic. Treat it with curious devotion and the nature of dreams has its own magic which will find you. Your destiny is already set, my love.
Like the blueprint of the oak within the acorn, you are sure to succeed in those pursuits you most desire.
Feed your dreams through gentle nurturing and quiet attention. It is faith – not discipline – that will bring your dreams to you. Follow the dreams; don’t set course for them with careful planning and detailed attention, for then it becomes a task. It is the process of discovery that fills us with such joy we cannot bear to let it be forgotten.
ABUNDANCE OF BLESSINGS
Once the dream has been pinpointed, the universe quickly confirms you are on the right track by sending blessings your way. Synchronictites begin appearing that confirm your path. You find things come to you easily. It is a matter of alignment after all. When we match the frequency of our destiny and follow our dreams with loving gentleness, the world conspires to help us achieve that which has been ordained for us.
You could call this fate. But fate feels firm to me – fatal – lacking in free will and with plodded course. Destiny is the blueprint. How we arrive there is the journey of each soul and the delight of being.
The energies that find us when we follow our dreams feel good. This sense of peace, contentment and excitement are sure signs we are in alignment with our dreams. When we are in rhythm with the truth of our hearts, we cannot be but lifted by the path ahead. Even if we are unable to see the outcome, the process of creation feels too fulfilling to abandon.
Following our dreams gives us life, vitality, passion and becomes the purpose of our lives. We will feel more joyful and attract more of the same to us. Without effort, with loving attention, when we find the vibration of our destiny, and tend it well, everything unfolds just as planned. It is faith, not a detailed plan, that will feed our dreams and bring us to our destiny.
PRINCIPLE OF PRIORITY
We have many demands on us on any given day. Bills, self care, family and professional obligations at times seem to fill our to do list. If we feed these necessities only, the dreams will begin to wither. The trick is that the dream is always near, waiting patiently to be nurtured. Paying attention to that which gives us passion daily is the most certain path to following our dreams.
Like a muse, the dream is always faithful to us and expression its only purpose. To come into being is its destiny and it has chosen to become through us. Our obligation is to make it a priority. Want to write a book? Commit to writing every day even if only a sentence at a time. Want to be a great artist? Buy the canvas and have the tools at the ready when inspiration does strike.
Without our due diligence we are poor stewards for dreams. Be ready, be receptive and welcome the dream to move through you. This is the path of defiant self love which emboldens us to rise to our destiny.
FOLLOW YOUR DREAM AS AN ACT OF CREATION
No great work happens overnight. The Sistine chapel did not just appear. It took devotion, love and consistent attention to complete. We are often dissuaded from our dreams because we cannot see the veracity of its final product. We look for confirmation that we are doing it “right” when the only validation is the joy it brings.
Creation is a tricky process. Sometimes it is pulsating with life ready to burst forth from us. Other times a quiet murmur that awaits breath to come back.
SET AN ALTAR FOR YOUR DREAMS
A vision board may be one expression but I like a bit more deep ritual. In my home, I have an altar to my business and my book. Both receive attention and are tended. I thank them when the muse is loud and honor them when the dream feels far off.
Faith fills me knowing the fulfillment of my dreams is coming even when I cannot possibly see how it comes into reality. Following the dream brings such delight I have no desire to stop even if I cannot grasp how the final product will reach the world.
ALL IS ATTRACTED TO YOU
When I began this path as shaman, I could not imagine where it would lead. I only knew it was the only pursuit that brought me joy. As a child, I would become excited talking about ghosts and aliens. With each step I’ve taken to honor this dream, more reveals itself. The destiny is set and my only job is to follow the clues and remain devoted. I could not have hoped to sit here now writing about such esoteric matters, moreover, that you would even read them. And yet with each unfolding, I find there is little for me to question. It seems the only “logical” next step. Follow the dreams, breathe life into the passion and all will come to you.
The converse of this is also true. In following your dreams, the fears, doubts and challenges will arise. With courage, we face these with the same gentle loving presence and the illusions which seem to block us begin to dissolve.
Rather than feeling discouraged, see the obstacles as exactly the trigger than will help us heal and overcome the doubts deep within. When these “icky” energies arise, it is only asking to be loved, acknowledged and brought back into the fold of your total whole self.
YOUR DREAMS ARE SACRED
When you treat your dreams as a holy quest, a path of sacred devotion, interesting things begin to occur. As if by magic, everything appears for you. Destiny unfolds before you requiring no stress, no effort. This is the way and is ready to remind you of your brilliance.
