How to Call in The Help

Some of my Gubbio (Italy) loves, the trees in my favorite park ... here on a rare sunny day !

Having just returned to Italy after being in Bayeux, France, after an idyllic three months there, I’m finding that many loves in my life are really having a difficult time right now.

As usual, I would love to be able to wave a magic wand and dissolve all of their pain in the Light. I would love if everyone was truly living in their joy, all day every day. I can arrange to feel even sadder thinking that I’m helpless, because in fact I can’t do a fix, like that.

Gratefully this week I was guided to be part of a special webinar hosted by Hollie Holden, one of my favorite human beings. Her theme is always steeped in Love, how to be the Light in the world, and in turn, experience miracles.

She ever-so-kindly coached a woman who shared a story with the similar theme of feeling helpless. As a mama, this lovely lady was carrying the weight of so much at that hour.

One suggestion that Hollie offered was over-the-moon-perfect for this mama, and every single one of us listening.

Her loving guidance went something like this:

Call this person to your heart. Imagine them surrounded by the Light of the entirety of their ancestral spirits. And all of their angels, guides, lightworkers, their entire spiritual support system. And then, do that very same thing, for yourself.

Hollie further suggested, That, is powerful. That, takes the worry, fear, heaviness from your being, and allows the Light to come through you, to ... help.

Today I was so happy to return to the Tuesday morning open market here in Gubbio, for the first time in months. I was delighted beyond measure, as usual, to find treasures to cook with this week and speak some Italian with the locals.

On my way home, I always stop at my favorite park to sit on the swing, and let myself be loved up by all the trees. This morning, they gently suggested that I practice Hollie’s suggestion to love up all the loves in my life who are struggling right now.

So one by one, I called each into my heart, and mindfully surrounded them with the Love and Light of their own ancestral and spiritual support systems.

Then, my Trees told crying-me, Now, it’s your turn.

So I did the same for myself.

By the time my little practice was complete, the little ones at the preschool across the way, were set free in the play yard, chattering, laughing, squealing. Suddenly my heart was so light, I couldn’t stop smiling.

What a precious way to be told, Well done, Well played. Now, young lady. Go be in your joy.
