#565: Miracles

Flow Dreaming. It's a show where we talk about the power of your mind to change your world around you, to literally affect the fabric of your reality. We talk about this feeling of hope and joy and relief. And that is what being aware of your flow does. It gives you a feeling of power again in your lives. Breathe. I'm Summer McStravik and welcome. Welcome to another episode of Flow Dreaming. Hello, everybody. Welcome. Welcome to Flow Dreaming. It's going to be a little bit of a shorter show than usual because we had a few hiccups getting on this time, which is unfortunately, I can't tell if it's user error or what. Somehow something got muted. It was kind of a strange little miracle in a way, which is the topic of today's Flow Dreaming. Miracles, right? Those things that happen and we can't explain them. And it's kind of funny because this is not a great miracle, of course. It just happened. But for some reason, our software, My software booted up with me muted every single time. Booted up, mute, mute, mute. So I don't know how it got stuck on that. It's never happened before. But we figured it out because we've got a clever little team here. And so I guess it's just putting me in the right frame of mind to ask questions like, why do things happen? How do they happen? I'm sure there's some logic to this. And in fact, today, as we explore miracles, there will be some logic to. Many of the things that we want to say are coming from a different source. You know, a different reason, a different. Something higher, greater, interventionist. We'll get all into it, but let's just start with what miracles are. You know, what are miracles? I think. And I did. I fell down the YouTube rabbit hole. Researching today. I probably wasted a great hour looking at miracles captured live on tape all over the world. You know, from car crashes to kids falling out of buildings. Yeah. I mean, pretty awful stuff. But the one kind of tendency that everyone says about a miracle is there was some sort of interventionist hand. It wasn't just a miraculous piece of luck. Right. A kind of lucky break, a. What are the odds of that? Odds? One in a billion. Some things are incredibly, incredibly lucky. The difference, though, between a piece of luck that's that amazing, that enormous, and a miracle is. Is that with a miracle, you feel like somebody wanted that to happen. Something caused that to happen. It's like we ascribe a higher meaning or a reason behind it that usually has to do with some form of higher Consciousness so we can pray, which we all, you know, probably do from time to time in our lives. And when you pray, I need a miracle, what you're really asking for is will someone, something, some benevolence, step in on my behalf. Whereas I just need to get really lucky. I need to beat the odds. I need to be the one in a million, right? That's got a whole different character, a whole different taste or texture to that way of thinking and feeling. And obviously from our flow dreaming perspective, that's what we're really looking at this through the lens of where is your emotional, energetic heart located as you experience this miracle, as you go into this miracle? So I'm going to tell you today a story of, well, three stories, three miracles that I have personally experienced. Three miracles that I didn't look for, I never asked for, I never prayed for. I wouldn't have known to have asked for them. There was no time involved, no foresight. So I'm gonna tell you that. And then I would love, love, love to hear you share some of your miracles because believe me, my miracles aren't gonna last a whole show. They're short, they're easy, they're quick. But I'd like to go into some of your tales and your stories if you're willing to share and come aboard. Because I guess what we're looking for here is a common and shared human experience. And that experience is some things feel beyond us. And this recognition that our brains, brilliant, beautiful, incredible devices that they are our brains, haven't yet understood everything by a long shot, by a million billion miles. So we make up all kinds of stories for the things that we can't yet explain. We make up. I hate to say this, but I may ruffle you, but I do that we may make up fairy tales, we may make up religions, we may make up belief systems, we may make up even sometimes some forms of science, it turns out not to be science as the years wear on and things get reversed. I was listening to a show the other day about your brain. I listened to a show actually called Hidden Brain, another podcast I like a lot. And one of the speakers, the scientists on the show was saying, was asked the question about what percentage of the human mind in psychology do we understand? And his guess was like 2%, maybe 2%. I laughed. We don't even know our own equipment. You know, imagine working on an oil rig and knowing only 2% of it. Imagine working with surgical equipment and only understanding 2% of it. Imagine we only understand 2% of our very own equipment that gets us through every day and which explains the world to us. If we haven't even figured out our brain, how in the world can we figure out the separation between all the layers of physicality and non physicality in the universe? We can theorize, we can dream, we can come up with abstracts, we can even create things that work on these supposed principles, such as quantum mechanics or even regular, regular physics. What I'm trying to do here is setting you up for being able to say, my mind is really open. Maybe it was an angel, maybe it was an alien, maybe it was a science, maybe it's a piece of science that I haven't yet understood. But the fact is, could have any of those explanations. However, the key, the kernel, is do I feel that there was some particular individualist, interventionist quantity or quality about this? Because if that is the thing that you say, yes, this happened for a reason. Now you're really opening up your mind to the interwebs, right? To the larger possibilities that we are components in a much larger organism, a much larger organization. We are a cell in a much larger body. And if a cell in your body is being attacked by a virus and a white blood cell comes in and miraculously saves that cell, on the one hand you can say, well, that's just science. On the other hand you can say, but it's also kind of a miracle because something came in and it stepped in and it saved me. Why? For something bigger, for the greater good. So for the moment, for this hour, imagine that you are a cell and a greater organism. And because of this, you have a place, you have a point, you have a job to do. There's a reason for your being. And not only that, but there's many things you don't know about all the rest of that organism. Because you as a little thumbnail cell don't know a whole lot about what's going on in that kidney cell. But you're all working together and you need each other. And there's all kinds of things happening to support, to cure, to save, to support, to love, to forgive, to create. And this is where in my book, the realm of miracles sits. So let's start with my three miracles. First three that I've had in my life. First one happened when I was maybe 7 or 8 years old, very, very young. And my mom used to teach classes at our local spiritual center. They had a big, big room in the back and the front was a library with lots of books and things you could buy. Backside was just this Big open space with lots and lots of chairs. And she would go in there and she would teach people. Because she was an herbalist. She studied under some really fantastic world renowned teachers. Dr. Christopher, Dr. Jensen Canadian herbal College so she brought in people from all over town who were curious, how do I use herbs and nutrition, you know, teach me. So she would lecture, she'd talk about the uses of, you know, pennyroyal or marshmallow or ginseng or all kinds of herbs. And as this little kid, I'd pack up all my little toys and I would come and I'd hang out with her in the back while she lectured all the students and people who'd come in for learning. So one of these days I was there, it was evening and I was in the back and I had all my little toys packed up and was playing with them and was kind of bored. As you, as you get hearing your mom drone on and on about this herb or another one or some bowel cleanse or some, you know, something, you know, hot flashes. And I look over at this very cool piece of equipment that's sitting there in front of my eyes. You guys know these? They're the, the things that you strap your, your legs and feet to inversion machines and then you hang upside down. And these were very popular in the 70s because there was supposedly a really great reason for hanging upside down. To get all the blood into your head for as long as you could. I know I'm simplifying this. And for those of you who love your inversion machines, I'm sure there is a better explanation for using them. But that's all. I knew people like to hang upside down, so I was going to try this. So I get into the machine, it's over. In the corner of the room, my mom's not paying attention. She's talking to her students as she should be. Nothing for her to think about or worry about. I tip myself in, I try and strap my little child sized feet in this adult size machine and I swing upside down. And because I'm shorter than your average adult, I'm a couple feet off the floor and I am directly upside down. And the machine goes pop. And my feet slide right out. And I could feel in that moment I will hit direct and my little neck is going to snap. It's just there I go so dead on, just boom, easy. Just like breaking a bone. Super simple. And what happened in that moment is it felt like time stretched. It felt like I was grabbed out of the universe, repositioned and placed back in the universe. It was weird. It was like experiencing a warp in the air or my mind or in time. And I landed on my feet outside of this machine. On my feet. There was no way. There was no distance. There was no, you know, three or three feet maybe. You can't turn that quickly in three feet in seconds. And yet there I was. And I remember just being astonished, astounded, absolutely could not understood what had just happened. And then, of course, I told my mom all about it. Do you know what happened to me? I just got saved. And I just. I knew it wasn't just this weird thing had pulled me out. It was. If it hadn't, something really bad would have happened. Something to get me way off course and derail me. Now I see what happened now. You can't put little tiny kid feet in, you know, these boots that are meant for adult feet. There's no grip. There's no traction. You can't. They won't support you upside down. You're. You're not meant for it. I didn't know that, though. I was a kid, and it always made me think about that going forward. Why? Why then? Why that? Because if I looked at all the other kind of terrible, traumatic things that also happened to me as a kid, things I suffered through, that scarred me, wrecked me, I got through those. I wasn't safe from those. But this one little moment, it's almost like, no, no, no, no, this isn't supposed to happen. Let's fix this. Like a directive from the universe. And it's a weird miracle, right? I mean, it's not something you want to brag about. Like, I was healed from, you know, my cancer. I would love to have that miracle. I woke up one day, I went back to the doctor. Tumors were gone. They never performed surgery. It was just vanished. It happens. It does. That happens to some people. I didn't get that miracle. I got this really strange one when I was seven or eight. Miracle number two. Fast forward. I don't know. Gosh, another five, six years, 13, 14, and we had moved. This was when I was living. My mom and I, she had divorced, and we were back living with her parents. And they had a little, kind of. Frankly, kind of a shacky place out back. And I say kind of a shack because it had a tin roof. Literally, when the rain came down, it was like little nails hitting the roof all night long. Just this loud. It was so loud. And it got really cold in the town. You guys know it? It's Ramona. It's where My mom lives got very cold and it would get icy. And sometimes I'd wake up in the morning in the winter, and everything was frosted as far as you could see. Just like a white cake of ice over everything. Not snow, but a white cake of very slippery ice. And because this was rural, I was the only kid at the bus stop. In fact, the bus actually stopped at my house at the end of my very long driveway because it was much too far a walk to the next kid's house. So I was the first one every morning on that bus. It took me more than an hour to get to school, about an hour and 10 minutes because we had to pick up everybody else. So I had to get up very, very early when it was very, very icy. So the other thing about this house is it didn't have steps down the front porch. It actually had a ramp. Because previous to us, the last tenants had been my great grandparents. My grandmother and father had taken care of them. They had dementia and they needed them close, and that's what you did. So they had a ramp for the wheelchair. And it was an old ramp. It was just wood. Did not have any of the modern grippy tape on it. Nothing like that. No grippy tape, no nothing. Just old kind of, you know, soft, slick wood. So this is the ramp I'd walk down every morning, and I could grab the rail, which was very splintery because this wood hadn't been finished or polished in maybe 20 years. So it was a very splintery. I didn't like to touch it. And I was, you know, in my finest gear. I think I may have been wearing a little pair of boots with heels on them because, you know, I was 13 now and I could do that. And I stepped on the top of the ramp, and it's like 5:30 in the morning. And I lost my grip and I lost my balance. And I had the moment where I was falling, and I was going to fall right back and crack my head on this slab of ice. And just I could feel it. I could feel it. The same thing happened. It happened again. Next thing I knew, I'm standing up, I'm at the bottom of the ramp. The fall was stopped, it was halted. And I was standing at the bottom of the ramp, and it was like I had been lifted and carried there. That is exactly how it felt. Lifted and carried. And, you know, I'm tempted to say, well, my brain makes up stories, or it's been so long I've forgotten, and I must have just created this, or maybe I Dreamed this? No, because I've told this story many, many times. I started telling it right afterwards. It wasn't something I remembered a year later and made stuff up around because, you know, I don't know. No, this is it. I mean, this is straight up. I was lifted and carried. And I remember thinking to myself, well, there we go again. There it happened again. What is the point of this? I guess I'm meant to grow up, right? Both of these had to do with what would have been an untimely accident. And in both cases, I knew something would have really happened to have hurt me, damaged me, possibly killed me. Definitely messed with my. My head. Don't hit your head, Summer. Come on. That's the message I got. So years go by. Are you guys enjoying the storytelling today? Years go by and haven't had a miracle in a very, very, very long time. Gotten in lots of scrapes, had lots of things happen. No more miracles until 2014. And throwing a party at our house. Have both my kids by then, Locke and Lexi, my husband Charles, and my daughter has just finished a course in this is Funny Cotillion. Cotillion is this very old school. To me. It feels like 1950s style. Last ditch attempt to teach your children how to dance to wedding songs and be invited by, you know, boys to dance properly, how to form, you know, greeting lines, how to eat food with proper utensils, all the stuff that we don't always teach nowadays. But it was a thing in our area that all the kids would go in sixth grade. It was just a thing, like everybody in school, you know, at least 50% of the kids in sixth grade would sign up for this cotillion. So I said, great, we'll have a party at the end, Lexi, you know, we'll have everybody over at our house and it will be amazing. So first of all, plan the party. That's great. Don't usually do this kind of thing. This was a one off, you know, it's not like I have them all the time and party's happening. Ooh, boy. People are starting to have fun because it happened after cotillion. So, I mean, the party didn't even get started till like 7. I have like 14 or 15 6th graders in my backyard. And then I have all their parents, another 20, 30 people. Probably had 40, 50 people over at our house at that point. Party is going off. It's like 9 o' clock at night now. And it's funny, my husband had to run out at a certain point in the party to get some Ice because we ran out when he came back. He parked not up in the garage as he normally does. He parked on the street in front of the house. I have no idea why. Unusual. We always have our cars parked in our garage every evening, right? I mean, we do every night, but this one, for this night, we just, for some reason, we just didn't. So I'm in the backyard, we've got parents standing around front yard, backyard, talking. Parent wanders into the backyard and says, you know, there's a car on fire, there's a car on fire. We stop. What? What are you talking about? Car on fire. Come here. Hurry up, hurry up. You can imagine, this party grinds to a halt. I run out to the front yard and my husband's car has gone up in flames. This car had been parked for going on two hours, wasn't running, nothing wasn't on. There was no lights on, no cigarette lighters, nothing. It had spontaneously gone up in flames. And it was a fireball in front of our house. And we whipped out. I actually whipped out the garden hose. Fire trucks came. It was crazy. I mean, it was crazy. All the kids ran to the front. Everybody is watching. Who's ever seen a car spontaneously explode for no reason? And then I started thinking, oh, my God. If this were any normal night, at 9 o', clock, this car would be parked in the garage. We'd all be inside. Kids would be in bed. My daughter's wall is on the other side of the bedroom walls, on the other, you know, directly opposite the garage wall, which is directly opposite the hot water heater. And we park our car about three feet away from that hot water heater. Any other night, car would have exploded, caught fire, exploded. The hot water heater, all of us, all of us would have been gone. All of us. I mean, without doubt. And yet I happened to plan this weird party. My husband happened to go out for ice. Happened to not park inside the car, I mean, inside the garage afterwards. Not only that, but let's say he had just parked outside for any other reason. The pine tree directly above the fireball car. Well, if there had been no parents hanging out front, it might have gone 20 minutes, 30 minutes before we realized, hey, there's weird smoke. The palm, the fire, the pine tree would have caught, the roof would have caught. I mean, there were so many things that happened to just go right. I'm like, this is a miracle. This is a miracle. We were all saved. Every one of us were saved. What does this mean? I don't know. I think about that today, till this day. Why? Gosh. Whoa. So it was really strange when, you know, a year later I get this diagnosis for stage two breast cancer. I'm like, what? Hey, wait a minute. No, you're busy saving me. You're busy saving my family. Why threaten me now? So you see, this brings up all kinds of questions, like when is it your time? Is what you die of what you're supposed to die of? Are there things you are not supposed to die of? Is it up to you? Or is it up to something perhaps greater or in partnership with you? I don't know. I don't know. Ask these questions. Of course I'm in remission now. Probably everything I've ever worried about that will kill me will not be any of them that kill me. I have actually seen that to be more true than not true for every person I know who's passed. Two lifelong non smokers in my family both died of lung cancer. Surprise, surprise. They never, never even crossed their mind that that was what would take them out. So miracles. Those are my three. But let's talk about this. Miracles that feel that you have a divine hand involved. Mystery voices. You guys ever heard a voice in the middle of the night? You ever heard something wake you up? Someone speak words? I have. Have those words ever guided you, helped you, given you something? And you just. You say, I know I've heard this. Well, this could be. Certainly. It could be an artifact of, you know, some partial dream state. It could be any of that. Could be your higher knowing coming out, tricking you and verbalizing it so you take action. Or it could not. It could totally be something else. Could be communication. Could be a door open, a channel, a temporary tuning in to that AM station that just comes and goes. And there it is. My mom had her life saved by a mystery voice. She was told to get away and get out. There was a man and he had very bad intentions. And she heard a voice, get out, leave. This was when she was in college. She listened. She left. I don't remember the end of the story. I don't think he went on and murdered anybody else. At least that we know of. She told me another one that this. This guy who was a janitor, said he was a talent scout as well for this modeling agency. And he just did the janitorial stuff by day. But she was so beautiful. She should go to this agency. But she could only go after hours. It had to be. Had to be after six. And she was gullible. And so she went and it Turns out there was a woman there working late. She never worked late. And my mom said, well, I'm supposed to meet this, the guy here. He's supposed to. We're supposed to do like a talent thing. And the woman who worked there said, that's the janitor. Come on, honey, you shouldn't be here. My mom feels that she was protected, divinely protected. I'm sure she can tell that story much better than I can. But we swap stories like this, and I know you have your own stories. Sometimes we look at things that we feel are paranormal and we say, is that a miracle? What is that? Is that a miracle? Paranormal? If you go on the Internet, it's pretty interesting. They have tons of videos, of course, people with superpowers. I love watching those. You know, there's this guy in a hooded jacket and supposedly, you know, he plays with balls of light. And then when you spot him, he disappears. There's a girl who can throw people up against walls with nothing but the power of her hands. There are people who teleport, supposedly caught on security cameras. The teleport in, they prevent an accident and then they teleport out again. I don't know, are these real or fake? So hard to tell. Because everything on the Internet, all video footage, can be incredibly well manipulated. So things you see caught on tape are often, more often than not, bogus. You know, they're going for 10 million views. That's what they're really looking for. But it makes you wonder because we still have stories of people like this. We have stories of things. This is just them being put on video for, you know, us to revel at, marvel at. Made up, right? All sound, light and effect. But through our history, thousands of years, the stories remain the same consistently throughout time. Superhuman ability, superhuman talent, something that looks like a miracle. Child prodigies look like miracles. Are they? Are they not? Why are they different? Why? What's the point? What's the purpose? Human variation, maybe. Telepathy, Telekinesis. People who can read things, know things, guess numbers, reveal things that they shouldn't know. Bend spoons, yes, that can be done. Fakely. Is that a word? That can be faked? But then there are people that you say, I have seen it with my own eyes. And that's what it all boils down to. I think with miracles. You only know it's a miracle if you've truly seen it with your own eyes. And miracles have become, or will become, or are becoming more and more, a real one on one experience, Intimate, personal, upfront up close, you and something else, you having the knowing. And from my experience, it's not just having it, there's a little extra something because I'm as woo as I am. I'm also very skeptical. I have a scientist's nature. I say, wow, do it again, let's see it again, let's see it again and again and again. Big, big believer in science and knowing that science really makes up the bulk of our miracles. But I'm not so egotistical as to believe that there could be something greater than science that's also at work, that I'm just not intelligent enough of a being in my little human form to understand. I would have to have a pretty big ego, I think, to be able to shut down all the rest of the universe because I know better. And that's what leaves me in the end, an extremely open minded skeptic with a catalog of experiences that are intimately unexplainable. And that's how I know the difference. These experiences that I've had have given me a barometer that I can measure pretty much everything else by the wonder, the awe, the actual physical sensation, the clarity, the brilliant clarity of each of these moments unsurpassed. And that's what lifts them into a totally other realm. The other thing I think about miracles is it's about listening. Listening and acting on that hunch. It's the nudge, it's the guidance, it's the I did this instead of that and my whole life turned out differently. Right? I think it all plays into that miracle way of thinking. So there you have it. We're gonna go to a quick break and because this ended up being a bit of a shorter show, I'm so sorry, guys. What we're going to do here is go into a meditation for a miracle. When we get back, We're on break and while I give myself a second to regroup, I'd like you to consider what having private mentoring with me would be like. You see, I accept a small number of people each year from private coaching. The question is, what do you want to make? Who do you want to become? We can program and shape any area of yourself or your life. Imagine right now what you would be doing if you had no fear. Imagine how your life would look if there were no patterns and blocks repeatedly tripping you up. Imagine if you were fully healed in your heart, body and mind. Imagine if you also had a map to your success and you could follow it with ease and flow. Well, I look into you and into your life and I feel where you're going and know where the road is open and where it's blocked. I help you make the very best decisions based on what's coming up for you. I'll also show you exactly what I do day to day to succeed and my personal experience and business life. And we can create a copycat plan for you. So if you're game, you can fill out an application on my website for private coaching. Just go to flow dreaming.com coaching and then let's talk. I mean, the time to go for it is now. So let's just get this started now. Let's get back to the show. In case you missed it, the number to call to talk to me live is the U.S. number, 1-760-456-7277. Flow Dreaming airs live on Tuesdays. So check flowdreaming.com for my current live broadcast time. Again, reach me at 1-760-456-7277. Now let's get back to the show. Welcome back. We have more to go here on miracles again, you guys, I know some of you have had actual miracles happen to you. Actual miracles. I know you have. Anybody want to share? If so, I'm sorry, those are the only calls I'm taking today. Actual miracles that you want to share. If maybe you're praying for a miracle, perhaps we could talk about that, too. If you have something on your mind that you are hoping for, give you some direction on that. If that's the case, just dial 1-760-456-7277 and we'll share some stories. And you know, I'm even open to doing a kind of part two for this show, maybe having some of you post your miracles up on my Facebook page and then we can reach back out and I can say, hey, would you like to share this? And then we can kind of talk about it from there. Because I think it's really important for you to see kind of the breadth and the scope, what it boils down to. And what I mean by breadth and scope is the breadth and scope of other people's miracles, right? And starting to create discernment. You know, believing in miracles doesn't mean you believe every darn thing that happens. You should not. But it means having a little bit of allowance, having some wiggle room, not shutting off and saying, no, I know better, absolutely not. Nor being so open. And so, you know, believing that a person can do a magic trick in front of your eyes and call it a miracle. What is that balance and what do you know? What are the hallmarks? What are the differences? And I shared with you how I have been able to learn, discern the difference. But it took direct experience that I could then contrast everything else to. And that's why I think that miracles will always continue to be these sort of special moments directly between you and source. One to one, there's no other intervention. It's an inner pure kind of not even conversation, it's a pure dialogue. It's a pure moment. And if you're lucky enough to have those, you know, cherish those. Because there's so many points in our life where we can look at the world and especially when we've been kind of kicked and kicked and kicked and kicked in the teeth and kicked in the can and kicked and kicked and kicked. And we say, ugh, none of it's real. It's all just a struggle through life. And then you get to the blessed other side of the atheist perspective, which is none of, there's nothing else there. So I actually just treasure the fact that I'm alive and I am aware of my livingness, I'm aware of my life, I have consciousness, right? And you can actually find joy in that philosophy too. But even with that philosophy, what if you have a little tiny bit of openness? And that openness says, and yet there is more I do not know that I grant to be true. And so everything that comes to me I evaluate with an open mind and an open heart. Because the day I stop doing that is the day, frankly, I stop growing. It's the day I say, I know all there is to know. I don't need to know any more about this. That's what that says. Now I know most of you guys who are listening right now, you're like, that's not me. I am all into it. I am into angels and I am into everything. And I haven't even spoken of angels or other worldly beings because, you guys know, I do communicate, I do bring through lots of information. I have had my own personal encounters with, let's just call it more intelligent, benevolent energies, consciousnesses. And I will save that for another show. I don't really consider those miracles though. You know, oddly enough, I know it's kind of weird. I don't consider those miracles. I consider that more of a day to day normalcy. I consider that part and parcel of the fabric of our lives. If you are open to it, if you are available to it, it's there. There's nothing actually special in my book about that. It's special because not as many people can do that. But it's not special in terms of being so different or unavailable or unscheduled as a miracle can be. So let's go ahead. Before we wrap things for you and do a meditation, I want to allow you to open and experience and ask for that miracle. Remember, miracles, they don't have anything to do with how good you are. No promises, no bargains. It's not about a judgment thing. A bad person can have a miracle as easily as a good person can have a miracle. Right? Jesus did not discriminate between the Mary Magdalenes and the disciples. Free and open. For all miracles are available. You just have to be willing to say, and yet they're not under my control. Close your eyes with me and relax. Sink into this feeling. Sink into this feeling of relaxing and letting go. Allow something, feeling desire, a want to rise up in your heart. Perhaps it's for yourself, or maybe it's for someone else. Let it come up in you. What would be a real miracle? What would that be? Notice if this feeling is something that you think the universe may ask work from you to attain or achieve. Or is this something that you truly can do nothing about? It's either gifted to you or someone else, or it isn't. Can you feel the difference? What is this miracle? Can you feel yourself allowing it? Receiving it? Can you feel your gratitude for it? How grateful you are? Can you feel that? Yes. What if you had this miracle? What if this person you love had this miracle? What if it was the right thing for them? You want it to be the right thing for them. But what if? What if everything? Stars and the planets and source and angels. Everything, Everything. Whatever you believe in, what if it all agreed this is the right thing? And it is. So what's that feeling? Offer this feeling outward. Offer it to source. Just offer. Feel that you are allowed a miracle. You are allowed miracles. Rare beauties. They do move through our lives. Capture one, make a home for it. Let it stay with you. Receive it. Now. Go ahead and release and return. Coming back. Coming back from flow. There you have it. Go ahead and bathe in that feeling. What is it like? There should be no sense of desperation, no sense of bargaining, no sense of control. It's just. If it's right, it's right. If it's not, it's not. But if it is right, I'll let it happen. If it is right, I let it happen. And happen it does to me, to my loved one, to my friend. It Happens. Notice too how you feel right now. Do you feel surrounded with grace? What is that sense? Surrounded by grace? I think that's one of my favorite words from holy scriptures. Scriptures of all kinds. Grace, right? It's like a friend of a miracle. Grace is a sense of you have the benefit of the doubt or a little more tipped on your side. There is something, some awareness to lift you, support you, smooth things, ease things. Grace, Right, grace. Grace is not judgmental. Grace is available to all. Grace is like water, like air, freely given. Grace is like your body. You have it, you belong. It belongs to you, you own it. It's. Grace is the most democratic of God's feelings, I suppose you could say, because it's shared. The criminal has grace, the angel has grace. Anyone can have grace. You can have grace. Do you have grace? Maybe you want grace. Maybe you'd like grace. Maybe you could use more grace. Maybe grace is this little sister to miracles. And you feel, actually, I could have grace every day, all the time. Miracles, they're like I said, that rare little being rolling around sometimes like a tumbleweed. You get one through your life. But grace is day to day. Today, that's grace. In case you missed it, the number to call to talk to me live is the U.S. number 1-760-456-7277. Flow Dreaming airs live on Tuesdays. So check flowdreaming.com for my current live broadcast. Again, reach me at 1-760-456- 7277. Now let's get back to the show. So keep that in mind. Keep that in mind. We, we did a little flow there, a little energy work, and then just wanted to keep talking and kind of give you some thoughts, to just keep prying you open gently. I guess the main thing I want you to take from today, Today's show wasn't 10 tips to become more happy or, you know, seven ways to, you know, et cetera. Sometimes I give you those real practical ones, but sometimes we just need to think bigger, to stop putting a container on our lives, a container on our universe. And that's today. Stepping back and looking at this. Ah, yeah, I do deserve this. I can have this. And I'm fully, completely acknowledging that some of this is not in my hands. It is in the hands of something greater. Maybe part of me or not part of me or a big combination. But I'd rather believe that and feel that than the alternative, which is I'm alone, you know, except for my people around me, others. It's a choice you make inside Your head and your heart. At some point, are you going to be isolated or are you going to be connected? And to what degree? And I think that's what makes the biggest difference between those of us who are pretty spiritually open and those of us who aren't. We said, I choose to be connected in as many ways and as many levels as I can to other people, to my greater self, to a source or greater benevolent consciousness or God. And even if I can't prove to anybody else that this is real or not, I am choosing to say yes to this connection because if it's there, I want it. If it's there, I want it. So I will act and live as if it's there because that's how I let it in. Right? You guys got that? Nice, nice, nice, nice. So let me just give you a little heads up. The next few months on Flow Dreaming are going to be interesting. Yes, we're going to keep going off into these different realms, but we're also going to start including, I know I've been telling you for a while, we're going to be starting to include a few more interviews. In particular, you know that this show is broadcasting on Inflow Radio, right? Which is my new baby, my new network. Please, please, I do urge you, listen to the show live. It is live on Tuesdays. Please, please, please, please listen. When it's over, it goes up into the archives at Inflow Radio. Now, if you go there, you're going to find a whole lot of other great shows and hosts. And these are all people that I personally am working with each week, helping produce their shows, helping put them together, really putting together the vision, the theme, the feeling behind who we are, what we do, what we share. So I'm going to be interviewing some of my fellow co hosts on Inflow Radio and be on the lookout. I want to introduce you to them, introduce you to their work and kind of help you see what I see in them, you know, see where I see their gifts and what they specialize in and where they can really, really help you shine. So keep your eye on that. That is coming up in the next few weeks. I also have a request for you. I would love, love, love for you to share with anybody and everyone you know about Inflow Radio. Word of mouth is all we depend on. I mean, ads only go so far. People are used to ads. They click on ads, ads, ads. But if you say, ah, there's the station I listen to, that's what it takes. Or, oh, there's this show that I listen to. I can't tell you how many of you I've spoken to, particularly in me school.
