Hello! I could use your help...

[Lucinda]

That's an odd thing for me to type, in this context. :)

I don't think twice about asking for prayers and energy when a friend or acquaintance needs them, but I don't often think to do it for myself. I expect that may apply to many of us here. We just sort of apply the things we know how to do, and move through the problems in our days as we meet them, knowing they will work out.

For a day or so now I've woke up "knowing" that I should post here, so here I am.

Like a lot of you, there is almost too much coming at me, with everything that is going on in our world right now. I have a few things that I would like to focus on, fix, and/or begin, and I am finding it difficult to do, working alone.

If you have any light, energy, words (or anything else) that you can send my way, I would be most grateful.

1. Glad you asked

Sending you light and love. Take some slow deep breaths. You will find your energy and focus.

[Lucinda]

21. Thank you. Every time things started to spiral I stopped and did the obvious

slow breaths. Thank you sooo much for the reminder. It's amazing how easy it is to lose sight of the obvious when we get caught in a loop.

2. Good on you for asking.

Too often, when I am in your shoes, I feel like I'm showing a weakness by asking ... when it's just the opposite. You're gaining strength by doing this - so thank you for showing me the way.

I ask the angels to send waves of loving energies your way - embracing you, walking with you, grounding you, yet also lifting you into the cosmic consciousness of oneness.

Also remember to breathe - deeply, slowly, and with intention.

Blessings to you. :hug:

[Lucinda]

20. Thank you so much, Some part of me may feel that way because

it rang true when I read it. I really didn't know I felt that way. I've always just assumed that I wasn't protecting myself properly or something. Thank you for such a lovely post. It went straight to my heart. ♥

5. I read what I think was a really

outstanding quote posted on Facebook by one of our members here:

"If you want to know where your heart is, look to where your mind goes when it wanders."

It rings through my head all day long and has the effect of helping me focus on where I want my energy to flow.

16. That is amazingly helpful for me right now. Thank you for that.

6. Sending light and prayers your way

Hoping you also can get centered in the midst of these storms. Sometimes, that's just taking a few moments out for yourself with a massage or whatever else can help you relax and take your mind off the world around you. This is the most important time to get in touch with yourself, to be able to stay or get balanced. Much love your way, Lucinda, for calmer days ahead. :hug:

[Lucinda]

15. Thank you! I do need to do that more...it's excellent advice.

9. The universe always answers..IF you ask!

I have found that if I calmly actually just ask...wherever or to whomever it is directed, the answer comes maybe not as expected..but the universe always delivers answers..

The Aladdin Factor is a good book about asking.

Lucinda, may you have light and peace throughout your quest for answers!

[Lucinda]

12. Thank you Kimmers...

It is automatic to ask for others, I just don't think to do it for myself very often. I'll check out the book. Thanks for suggesting it! ♥

10. Good vibes and light to you, Lucinda.

For everything you need. Healing, health, love, and humor. :hug:

[Lucinda]

11. Thank you sweetie!

It is such an enormous help. :) ♥ Hope all is well with you.

19. Looks like the Cavalry in this group is rushing to your aid.

You came to the right place to ask for help. I'm getting over the flu, a temporary condition, but otherwise, I am very well. Lots of love and light. xoxo, :hug:

[Lucinda]

22. They are amazing. And it was enormously helpful. It's lovely to see you here.

I'm glad to hear you are getting better. The flu, sucks. You can quote me on that.
I have a head cold on top of everything else I've been dealing with, and I was just wiped out on every level.

23. I'm going to have to mend a whole lot more before

I chance it at OWS. I'd planned to take some food down there, but if I got hit with pepper spray or mace it would probably kill me with my lungs in this condition. You take good care of yourself. I know you do, but expect to get better soon. ASAH is such a giving forum, glad to see you here too!

[Lucinda]

25. My heart is with OWS too. I was invited to go to the Knoxville protest

and cannot go for similar reasons. But they are all in my thoughts. I'm ready to get better, I have things to do!

[yellerpup]

26. You will get better.

Believe it!

[Lucinda]

27. I do.

[Lucinda]

24. You have all been such an enormous help to me. Thank you.

To those of you who posted, and those who sent love and energy and didn't post, I am truly grateful. I send you my love and gratitude for your kind spirits.

Lucinda ♥
