Welcome to the year 2020 - hopefully that means 20/20 vision. So much is falling away in order for us to see the core of what's truly important. Instead of sending out light in all directions like a glitterball, we need to focus our intention like a laser, for maximum effect.
This feels like a month to be pro-active, get clear where we stand, put structures in place so that we can express our gifts and find a way to be comfortable with rapid change and apparent chaos.
The most important factors in dealing with change are being deeply grounded and having a rock solid faith that, even when familiar things are stripped away, all is still in divine order. When you can stand firm in that connection between heaven and earth, you have a resilience that allows you to weather the most challenging circumstances and remain determined and open-hearted.
As this feels like a 'get things done' time, I've included lots of resources that have helped me at a very practical level, which is where many empaths often need an understanding expert.
Wishing you the connections that serve you best

Four Steps to Transformation |
Why is there often such a gap between what we yearn for and what we actually have in our life? Most people’s wish list includes loving relationships, vibrant health, abundant finances and fulfilling work but so often, despite our best efforts, life falls short of the dream.
The gap happens because the world that we see outside us is perceived through a lens created by our thoughts and feelings and our beliefs about ourselves. These are what determine our actions, our goals, our health and our body language, which in turn determines how people respond to us. In any given moment we’re receiving what we unconsciously expect from the Universe.
No amount of conscious affirming and positive thinking will counteract a deep unconscious fear or entrenched belief which has closed the door to fulfillment. So when life isn’t working out the way you want, changing how you feel is always the best place to start.
With metaphysics now demonstrating the vibrational nature of the universe, there’s a whole array of tools and techniques in the vibrational medicine cabinet which can bring about real transformation.
Whatever approach you go for, there are four essential steps to the kind of profound change which allows you to expand your consciousness, create more exciting goals and express more of who you really are.
Four Steps to Transformation
Awareness
We cannot change what we’re not aware of, so the first step is always to bring what's buried in our unconscious into our awareness. This requires willingness, a safe space, effective tools and sometimes an experienced guide.
Acceptance
Once you’re aware of something, you have a choice how to respond. The reason it was buried in the first place was because it was judged unacceptable, so the temptation may be to push it away, deny it, minimise it or blame someone else for it...........
How would you like to start 2020?
You could ask for guidance to get the most appropriate blend from the website
For all the bells and whistles you can order a de luxe attunement with your totem animal, ascended master, personal affirmation, essence analysis and suggested steps forward,

Is 2020 the year you realise your dream? |
What's your big dream? Do you want to write a book, relocate, open an animal rescue centre, create a more portable business or simply learn how to be more productive and abundant?
One person who's done all these things and loves to share how to successfully set goals and reach them, is Aussie entrepreneur Leonie Dawson.
Her courses always include forums, live Q & A sessions and detailed practical advice. You're accountable and part of a group who will cheer you on, share experiences and suggest ways forward, which is one of the reasons they're so effective.
And Leonie gets how easy it is to start and not finish the journey, because a true goal will always bring up your biggest block, so there's a bonus course on self sabotage to help you finally break through it, find the learning and cross the finish line.
She's also keen to help those who may have big dreams but can't stretch to a major financial investment,so her 3 month online course is only 99 USD. It starts on Wednesday Jan 15.

Loving Abundance - Crystal Herbs essence offer |
Mother of Pearl is aptly named. A pearl is formed by friction in a watery environment that reflects our emotions and it brings understanding of our mother relationship. It soothes memories of when were hurt or disappointed by a lack of love in our childhood and ultimately brings the feeling of being in the arms of an unconditionally loving mother.
Dark Pearl is activated by the new moon and responds to yang energy, whereas light pearl reacts to the full moon and responds to feminine, yin energy.
Pearl essence encourages unresolved emotions in the lower three chakras to rise and find balance in our heart. It helps us find the ability to nourish and support ourselves, so it's useful not only for emotional balance but also if you want to put your finances in better order.
This month Crystal Herbs are offering 20% off Pearl essence. Available as 10ml or 20ml.
Spirit of Transformation blends which contain Pearl essence are:

Making Friends with Money - Pay What You Can |
How's your relationship with money? We often see it as key to freedom and it may also play a major role in our ancestral and social history, so it can carry a strong emotional charge. Sorting out our relationship with money can mark a turning point in taking back our power.
Someone who understands this all too well is Sufi businessman Mark Silver and his team who run an 8 week online course once a year called Heart of Money. It's on a 'pay what you can' basis, so everyone can afford it and runs from Jan 21 - March 17. You don't need a business to benefit from the course - we all have a relationship with money, whether we ignore it, engage with it, unconsciously push it away or project onto it.
'The lessons from Heart of Money stuck well. My income did grow 100% in the first two years after taking the course!
'You do awesome work with Heart of Business, you provide wonderful service, your programs are excellent, and you\re a wonderful model of a heart-centered business. (I didn't know something like it could exist and thrive. I didn't know you could build your business in and ground your financial habits in Love.) You're grounded in really solid values about acting from compassion, promoting equity, and facilitating healing.' Kirstin Schumaker
Looking for a group with regular business training? Mark also runs a community for small business owners which is ideal if you're tired of working alone and want to connect with others in a similar position.
It offers courses such as how to build a heart-centred website, sacred selling and and how to say what you do in one compelling sentence:

Do you need to stand out online? |
Are you clear and visible? It can be frustrating when you want to contribute and serve but you aren't attracting the people you can help - or perhaps not enough of them.
If that resonates, the first step is to get very clear what you're offering and the second is to ensure you're communicating that through appropriate channels, so the people who need you can find you and recognise you easily.
One person I follow because she's authentic, open and very good at following a fast-changing marketplace is Lea Jovy. With a business background she moved into becoming an successful online entrepreneur and now helps businesses large and small.
She also offers a branding service which may seem overkill if you're a one (wo)man band but actually it makes all the difference to being able to stand out in a crowded marketplace. When I employed a branding expert my business really took off.
Reader Discount: As I know some of you would really benefit from Lea's expertise, I've negotiated 25 GBP off her services if you mention my name before January 31st.
'Lea’s level of professionalism, creativity and high quality service was incredible to experience. I felt like she truly cared about understanding my business' M Richardson

These ducklings had fallen down a storm drain so their mother sounded the alarm. Luckily two people came to their rescue....
If duck appears as your totem in your De Luxe Attunement it's a reminder that, although you walk on the ground, you have wings to connect to your higher wisdom and webbed feet that allow you to dive deep into the undercurrents of your emotions. Connecting the two will bring you into flow.
Duck also brings the qualities of nurture and the willingness to be part of a team or community, sharing resources for the good of all.

Time to Stop - Sat 7 March
7 Day Retreat at Findhorn, Scotland
|
|
If you'd like to commit to a future pause in your diary before launching into 2020, I can recommend the energy of Findhorn Park - it's given me some amazing shifts. I've happy memories of starting my day doing community singing in this hobbit house. Nikki
Imagine giving yourself the opportunity to slow down, step out of your daily routines and busyness, lessen all the chatter in your mind and dependency on technology, and look at what no longer serves. To pause, be still, relax, reflect, spend time in sanctuary, journal, read, walk on the beach or in the woods, and get clear on what nourishes and nurtures you to lead a more whole, balanced and centred life.
On this retreat the invitation is to STOP. To be well held with plenty of time on your own, daily opportunities to check in as a group, and join in some community activities.
Join Judith and give yourself the gift of time spent in the natural surroundings of the Park.

Freshen up your life
If you're taking part in Veganuary this month, one way to keep your fruit and veg fresh for longer is to wash them in Nikken's PiMag water. Its life-giving properties can make them last twice as long. It's also wonderful for growing your own sprouts and watering plants.
Nikken water system's unique combination of far infrared, magnetic and ionic technology creates micro-clustered water that's immediately available to your body.
The minerals in the stones and the filters mean it also tastes wonderfully refreshing. It's the first water I actually wanted to drink. Order instructions below.

It gives you 10% off a filter bottle, filter shower head and the Waterfall system plus extra filters too. And if you already have a Waterfall and just want 10% off the other items, there's nothing to stop you sharing a pack with a friend who'd like one.
