Where do you think the desire to lash out comes from? The body is hardwired to protect itself from a danger. Could it be that in the past you faced an actual danger to your safety or survival and now you continue to protect yourself out of fear of a repetition? The body is on hyper-alert. The trauma is in the aura as are all experiences good and bad. Acknowledge your wholeness and the fullness of life with its ups and downs. Know that you are the Light of Awareness at your deepest level and that you came here for the fullness of experience. To continue to protect yourself in each moment causes tension and a lack of flow. What if you know you will respond appropriately moment by moment? That is flow. What if, in the face of an actual threat, big or small, the body responds appropriately and then the soul awareness takes over? This is a more awakened response. Set the intention to let down your guard and to flow, knowing you live and breathe as a team with Higher Consciousness. In the past you may have lashed out inappropriately. Now you can relax and respond appropriately moment by moment knowing you are not only human.
You are so very loved.

Such good timing. Here in Colorado we are forecasted to get very high winds in Chaffee County and I went into survival mode trying to prepare for power outages or lines down or trash receptacles blown across the town as it’s a day for trash pickup. OH MY! I hurried around making extra coffee, charging my phone, calling the trash company that I can’t put receptacles out close to the road…. and other survival preparedness, when I stop and read this…this… “As Appropriate”. Thank you Sanaya! I am now relaxing sipping that coffee and the winds have completely died down (for the moment anyway). I’m confident I will know what to do if the power does go out and will be responding from a much better perspective. Actually, I’m asking the wind gods to tone it down a bit! (80 mph winds is so strong, a bit too much!) I think we can prepare for our days much better than we realize. Asking for the best and highest good in each moment going along but also some rehearsing of the day’s plans ahead of time. Like Suzanne says, “what do I do now?” “Where do I go from here?” etc. and depending much more on spirit to lead the way in each moment. Thank you!
What a soulful wisdom! Priceless.
” Set the intention to let down your guard and flow.. ”
That is not always easy.
It very much depends on the situation you are in..
Sometimes, life is hard or traumatic unfortunately.
And there seems to be no reason for it .. no fairness to it .. no matter how spiritual you are..
I learned that the hard way many times.
None of my spirit guides seemed to be around for guidance or help.
I asked them many times over 20+ years .. why did you not help me ?
I am still waiting for an answer…
I feel – sometimes – our Guides are just not interested in our suffering.
Seems cruel to me and hypocritical too.
Has anyone else experienced this?
Liam, you are a magnificent soul. What happens in this life adds to the overall experiences of the soul, which is not harmed ever. It is the Light of Awareness, and you are an extension of this. What if you as a soul were ready and willing to experience this life through the lens of trauma and challenge? And ultimately, beyond this particular human life experience, all is well.
Thank you for your very kind words Suzanne.
I appreciate your kindness and compassion.
Maybe, I did decide as a Soul to live a difficult life ..
or maybe I was very naiive as a Soul in realising what human life actually involves ?
I wonder – as souls – are we shown the full picture of what a human life actually entails?
In my 20s, life was full of adventure, growth, excitement and drive.
Now .. in my late 40s .. I see life as 90% pain and 10% Joy.
This is making me bitter .. and I really do not want to go down that road.
I really hate to admit this .. but this is what I feel at the moment from my personal experience.
Everything is personal experience, I suppose.
I constantly ask for guidance and inspiration from my Guides.
Mostly, the reply I get is Total silence.
It is very frustrating and very disappointing.
I will go through your ‘ Personal Mediumship ‘ course again
and try to connect with my Guides for answers.
Maybe .. I need to be more focused.
Hi Liam, question your thoughts, then get out of your head. So much thinking! Please see how you do at simply being. Sending you the highest light…
Liam, I feel your pain and abandonment, and send you the best of my human love. DC
How can refugees, the homeless, victims of violence, the rabbit being killed by a predator feel ” so very loved”? I took the Personal Mediumship course, revisited it twice. I ache with all my being to believe that any energy loves or cares about my well being.
I watch and listen to you, longing for you immovable belief. I faithfully read the Daily Word. I trust your sincerity, and yet I’m unable to feel any sense that I matter to anything approximating a Supreme Source of love. Please help me understand what I’m missing or misunderstanding. I’m desperate to make a connection with something infinitely compassionate and endlessly present, in order to leave behind this lonely, vulnerable reality in which I live.
Profound thanks for all you add to the world. DC
Dearest one – reading and taking courses is part of the equation, but personal experience is the goal. Your task is to sit quietly (perhaps the SIP of the Divine – see my YouTube video about this) in an extended practice, with only one question each time: “Who Am I?” Watch what arises with curiosity. That’s all. Just be present with what arises as an observer. Repeat daily and observe how the experience changes over time, most especially when you set the intention to know yourself AS LIFE (Love In Full Expression).
This corresponded greatly to the Unity’s Daily Word message for December 16, the day I read both messages. It says to “flow with the natural rhythm of the day”. To get quiet to flow with each moment to come in sync with it.
I’m a newbie and read Awakenings yesterday. I must have expelled so much emotion. When I finished, I finally got back onto my last email. It was titled “Above Advisor” for a TruGreen ad. I am becoming more aware of loving EVERYONE and starting to meditate, not easy for me. Doing it though. Thank you so very much.
I am so very grateful to you and to Sanaya.
Sounds like your journey is truly flowing, Rachel! Blessings.
