14 Ways to Change Fear-Based Emotions to Love-Based Emotions

Posted on May 20, 2024 by Diana Rankin

Depression is a serious problem in our world today. Fear and anger rule too many lives. But we don’t have to live in these fear-based emotions. We can live in love-based emotions.

Following are 14 ways to change fear-based emotions to love-based emotions. These will help heal the blues and other fear-based emotions and change anger, fear, frustration, worry, anxiety, etc. to love-based emotions of happiness, calm, self-love and love for others, fun, laughter, etc. 

You’ve probably noticed, and wondered why, I chose 14 ways to change fear to love. Why not 15? There’s a reason. Keep reading and I’ll reveal why, but first–

Important that you understand–

  • These methods will NOT help if you are clinically depressed.
  • If you are thinking of taking your life, call 988 if in US.
    • Keep that number handy. Reach out to someone, a friend, a relative, a therapist.I am not a therapist; I am apsychic-intuitivespiritual leaderpublic speaker, andseminar leader who has learned to live her best life and wants to help others live their best lives.I’m also a writer, with 6 books published, including Joy! The Art of Living a Happy Life, 52 practices to create happiness and break the addiction to unhappiness.
    • This book might help you. If you think it will, you can order it from Amazon, the link is on my website, www.dianarankin.com. Some of the processes aren’t in the book so save this article if you find it helpful.

3 things you need know for these methods to work–

  1. Make it simple. Every emotion is either fear-based or love based.
    • Fear-based emotions are anger, jealousy, frustration, impatience, anxiousness, depression, etc.
    • Love-based emotions are calmness, happiness, joy, caring, empathy, compassion, laughter, etc.
  2. Be aware of what you are feeling and acknowledge the emotion as coming from fear or love.
  3. You must want to be happy. That sounds silly. Doesn’t everyone want to be happy? Well…no. Sometimes it’s easier to stay in misery than do the work to be happy, or at least that’s what some people seem to think. But you’re not one of them. You want to be happy and are willing to put forth the effort. So–
    • Be aware of what you’re feeling. Once you know what you’re feeling, and decide it’s worth the work to be happy, you can then make the decision to change whatever the fear-based emotion is to a love emotion.
    • This is work that isn’t always easy, but it’s well worth the effort.

Here are the 14 ways to change fear-based emotions to love-based emotions:

  1. This is an easy way to exchange fear for love once you recognize you are experiencing a fear-based emotion. Every emotion is either fear-based or love based.
  • You’ll need 2 small items of different colors—stones, beads, pieces of paper, etc.
  • One represents fear-based emotions (red bead for example)
  • One represents love-based emotions (green bead for example)
  • When feeling anger or any fear-based emotion, hold the red bead in your hand; look at it, ask yourself questions. For example–
    • Am I angry at someone I love because they won’t listen to me?Does it help me to be angry?Do I get what I want when I’m angry?
    • What’s in it for me to be angry?  
  • Then look at the love bead, smile, and make a conscious choice to move to love, to calm.
  • This is also a good time to go deeper & work on healing an old pattern, ask yourself–
    • Why does this make me angry?
    • Do I feel unheard? Unseen? Unworthy of having an opinion?

2. Mountain top—a friend told me this years ago when I was down and out.

  • Hold your left palm up flat.
  • With your right fingers, climb up your left palm while imagining that left palm is a mountain.
  • Once you climb the mountain, you are at the top, simply flip over and you’re still at the top. Stay there on top for a while and enjoy your life.
  • Every mountain we climb gets easier…and seems smaller because every time we learn how to climb that emotional mountain, we have the skills to climb easier, so the mountain seems smaller and the climb easier.

3. Picture a cone because life is circular.

  • As we go around the circle of life, the circle gets smaller and easier. This is because, like the mountains we climb, everything we go through makes it easier when it’s presented to us again because we’ve learned how to get through. Plus, and this is a big plus, we’ve healed a lot of that emotional baggage and catch ourselves before we fall off the cliff into the fear-based emotion.
  • Remind yourself of this and soon you’ll start to notice this is true.

4. Mirror self-talk is when you look into a mirror and look, really look, at that person looking back at you.

  • As you look back at yourself, tell that person in the mirror how worthy and deserving they are of love. Tell them how important they are to life. Tell them they are beautiful, handsome…whatever they need to hear.
  • Depression and other fear-based emotions are a
    • lack of feeling worthy
    • lack of feeling deserving
    • lack of self-love
    • It’s time to change the narrative and give yourself loving self-talk.
    • This won’t be easy for some, but every day, at least once (twice is better) morning and evening, or whenever you feel down, give yourself a little mirror self-talk.

5. Share a tree’s energy.

  • Find a sturdy tall tree with deep roots such as an oak or hickory. Short-rooted trees, such as maples, are not the best for this process. Let your intuition guide you in this process. Trust yourself.
    • Ask permission to share the tree’s energy. Don’t worry if you feel the tree is saying no. It’s merely not healthy enough at this time to help you. Find another tree.
    • Hug the tree and feel its energy.
    • Then put your spine into the tree. You may feel/see your energy.
    • One side of your body may feel/look darker.
    • Feel/see your own energy changing to lighter energy. 
    • Then imagine your feet reaching into the ground with the tree’s roots—grounding yourself.
    • Now raise your arms and let yourself soar with tall the tree’s branches.
    • Know that you can soar and be grounded at the same time.

6. Self-talk in nature

  • Go for a walk and talk to yourself. If you can’t go for a walk, simply step outside and look around, look at the ground, look at the sky.
    • Ask those hard questions—
      • Why am I angry, fearful, worried, etc. Ask to be released from these emotions.Give any fear-based emotions to Mother Earth or Father Sky by asking and holding your hands in the direction of either Mother Earth or Father Sky, and then imagining the emotions flowing out of your hands.
    • Now dance. If you can’t dance, imagine yourself dancing with joy.
    • Tell yourself you are replacing this fear-based emotion with love.

7. Give the emotion a name and talk to it.

  • For example, Hank is my anger. As a girl I wasn’t allowed to express anger. As an adult, I had to learn what anger felt like. It was scary! So, I gave it a name, Hank, and promised to work with him if he promised to not body slam anyone.
    • We all get angry at times; we all experience fear-based emotions.
      • Recognize the emotion.
      • Name the emotion.
      • Then work with the emotion. Let it work for you, not against you.

8. Stare at a candle or an object.

  • Keep staring until the fear-based emotion passes.
    • Meditate if you can; if not, just keep staring at the candle until you relax and you’re able to deal the with emotion in a loving way.

9. Smile, simply start smiling.

  • Changing the muscles in your face helps the emotion to pass.
    • Then do the work—ask those questions.

10.  Laugh-yes you can-just start laughing, soon you’ll laugh at yourself.

 11. Journal or draw about the emotion until you’re able to understand it and release it.

  • Keep asking those questions and go deeper until you have the answer to what’s beneath the emotion.
    • For example: Do you feel heard? If not, do you feel worthy of being heard?
    • Write until you find the answer. You do know. If you think you don’t, write until you find it.

12. Write down an affirmation and carry it with you; paste it every place in your house where you will see it often.

Put it inside a cupboard, next to your computer, on your bathroom mirror, etc.

13. Repeat the words bless you and bless me. When that driver cuts you off and you want to show him a little finger language, instead of getting riled up, simply say bless you and bless me.

  • You may start through gritted teeth but keep saying bless you, bless me until you feel the change of energy. You might even start laughing.
    • Use this whenever someone gets under your skin and you find yourself in that quick-temper mode.

14. 3 breaths—When we breath we don’t give it a lot of thought, but when we do concentrate on the breath, it is in the stomach and chest areas. These 3 breaths engage all of you.

  • Take that 1st deep breath in and using your imaginal mind see, as well as feel, your chest and back expand—exhale and see/feel the breath leaving your body.
    • Take the 2nd breath. See and feel the breath move up into your head, filling your brain with the breath, then see the breath move into your feet. Exhale and see/feel breath leaving body.
    • Take the 3rd breath see and feel your sides expanding, expanding to the left and to the right with the breath. Exhale and see/feel breath leaving body.

Some of these processes are easier than others. Changing a fear-based emotion into one of love isn’t always easy. It does get easier (remember the cone) the more we choose love over fear.

This doesn’t mean we’ll never feel fear or anger or worry again. It means we don’t have to live there.

Now why 14 methods? In numerology 1 + 4 = 5, which is the number of freedom. So, my friends, it’s time to be free of those fear-based emotions and live more of your life in love.

Best and Worst Food for Intuition

Posted on May 16, 2024 by Diana Rankin

What we put into our bodies has an effect on our intuitive abilities. It makes sense, but not something we give much thought to. We should, however, because there is a direct link between the food and drink we take in and how well our intuition works . . . and let’s face it, we always want our intuition to be spot on.

My awareness of how food and drink affects my psychic abilities began when studying with one of my teachers, Angel Gail Konz. Over the many years since, I’ve passed along that information and added my own discoveries. Everyone who registers for my Awakening to Your Deeper Intuition workshop receives a letter that includes suggestions to follow in preparation for the weekend. One of the suggestions is that certain foods be eliminated.

That list starts with red meat. Why? There are two reasons, the first involves our physical bodies and the second involves the energy we take in.

Meat takes more energy to digest, using more vital life force than it takes to digest fresh vegetables, for example. The digestive system has to work harder, so energy is drawn away from the upper energy centers that feed the brain, third eye, heart and some senses, such as sight and hearing, all of which aid our intuition.

We take in the energy of that which we put into our bodies, so when we eat meat we take in the energy of that animal. If the steer, for example, was slaughtered and butchered in a sacred manner, with prayers being said, the energy will be less intrusive than with an animal that is rounded up and transported in a less humane way.

Does this mean we should be come vegetarians if we’re trying to develop our intuition? No. Unless you’ve made a conscious choice to be a vegetarian or vegan, there are times when we want to eat red meat while developing our intuitive abilities. Red meat helps to ground us. If we’re floating into the deeper realms of intuition and touching on psychic or mystic abilities or if we’ve become so empathetic that it’s hard to function around others, we need to ground ourselves, and red meat can help us do that. (Salt also helps ground us as does standing on the right leg, which stimulates the left brain.)

Saying a prayer thanking the animal for giving up its life to sustain ours is always a good practice. The prayer, said with the intention of love, lightens the energy and helps our bodies digest easier.

Although I’ve been a semi-vegetarian off and on throughout my adult life, several years ago I reintroduced red meat back into my food selections. About the only red meat I can tolerate is a hamburger now and then, and it’s always when I need more grounding. Even as a semi-vegetarian, I left fish and eggs in my diet, in part for the protein, but mainly because it’s easier to find food when I travel to speaking engagements and workshops.

In addition to red meat, cut back on, or eliminate, sugar, carbohydrates, and junk food. As we develop our intuition, our bodies will react unfavorably to unhealthy foods. Our higher self is always pushing us to fulfill our soul calling and live our greatest life.  To do so requires we treat our bodies as the sacred vehicle they are.  

Also, cut back on or eliminate caffeine. Do not suddenly stop caffeine. Doing so will cause headaches and other caffeine withdraw symptoms such as fatigue, anxiety, and so on.  Caffeine is a stimulate that causes more anxiety than awareness. If we’re tired, caffeine can help us be more alert, but to develop awareness, we want to slow down the mind rather than put it in hyper-drive.

Now that we know what to avoid, let’s look at what to increase. I bet you can already guess that we need to increase a plant-based diet – fresh vegetables, nuts, seeds and beans, fruit, and substitute coffee for herbal tea. All of these aid the body for good health, which in turn, allows us to put our energy toward developing intuition.

While developing intuition, eliminate and cut down on

  • red meat
    • caffeine
  • sugar

Increase

  • fresh vegetables
  • nuts
  • seeds
  • fresh fruit (in moderation)
  • herbal tea (in moderation)

Regardless of the diet we choose, we need to listen to our intuition to know what is best for our bodies. If we’re craving red meat, our bodies might be telling us that we need to be more grounded. If our stomachs turn over at the thought of red meat, we need to pay attention and eliminate it from our diet, at least for now.

Philomena and My Father

Posted on May 1, 2024 by Diana Rankin

“I wonder if he ever thought of me.” These words spoken by Dame Judith Dench as Philomena in the film with the same name, grabbed at my heart and took me into my own question: I wonder if he ever thought of me.

In the film, Philomena was questioning whether the son, who had been taken from her by Irish nuns and adopted by an American family, ever thought of her. It was the same question I had about my father. First released in 2013, the film is based on the book The Lost Child of Philomena Lee by Martin Sixsmith. It’s the story of a woman who searched for her birth son for 50 years. My story wasn’t a film, or a book, and it wasn’t about a son; it was about a parent.

I cannot speak of a mother whose child was taken from her or of a birth parent who gave up a child for adoption. I can speak of a child who grew up not knowing a birth parent. I did think of you Father . . . again and again and again. And I wondered: did you ever think of me?

I met my father when I was 19. It was the first time I had seen him in nearly 16 years. I knew him only in memory of my three-year old self. That’s when he left our family – my mother and brother and me. I can still see us sitting on that concrete park bench at Woodland Cemetery in Dayton, Ohio, the cemetery where his parents are buried. I still see the white ducks with their orange bills open, quacking for food as they come out of the pond toward us. I still see the sunlight sparkling across the quiet blue pond water, still feel the spray of the fountain. I still see my father smiling at my brother and me. Even then I knew he was sad. It was a sadness of depth, a sorrow that I could not understand as a child. Still do not. It was a pretend laughter that he presented to us, a face put on for children.

Did I ask him why he was sad? I might have. I don’t’ remember. I do remember that I didn’t ask him when I saw him again when I was 19 and the deep sorrow was still there. It was behind his eyes, in the way he held his shoulders, and the way his hands rested in his lap. It was by his hands that I recognized him. They were my hands, long and slender fingers, unlike my mother’s or brother’s. It was in his hands that I saw my own heritage and the long line of ancestors from which I come.

I didn’t want anything from him. I didn’t want any money; he didn’t have any anyway. I didn’t want a relationship or to ask him to love me. It was all too late for that. All I wanted was to meet him, to look once again into the eyes of the man whose genes and DNA help to make up me.

But that desire, that need to meet him, was not well received by my family. It caused my mother terrible hurt and anguish. Although we never spoke about it, I’m sure she questioned the wisdom of family silence where any information about him was concerned, and I’m sure she questioned how much I loved her if I wanted to meet this man who had caused her so much pain. My big brother, always protective of our mother, was also upset with me. How could I hurt our mother so?

It is not something that can be understood – this need to find your birth parent(s) – by those who know the history of their genetic make-up. It is not a logical need, especially if you’ve had a good life and good parents. It is almost a biological, inborn need, inherent to the human spirit just to meet this person who helped to provide you with life.

I don’t know if everyone who does not know a birth parent has this need that I had. In the end, my brother had the same need. He too met our father, and it was our mother who gave me the clue that led me to him. That must have been hard for her. Only in hindsight am I able to realize how much she loved me to make that kind of sacrifice.

I don’t know if my father made any sacrifices for me. I think his leaving our family might have been a sacrifice, one that took me years to understand, appreciate, and be grateful for. Still, I wonder if he ever thought of me, if he loved me. I’ll never know. He’s dead now. There’s no one to answer that.

I know in a way I loved him, or loved the fantasy I made him to be. And maybe Philomena answered the question for me: as the child thinks about the birth parent, the birth parent thinks about the child and wonders if s/he ever thought of me.

Transgender and the Evolutionary Shift of Humans

Posted on May 1, 2024 by Diana Rankin

Maybe the journey isn’t so much about becoming anything. Maybe it’s about un-becoming everything that isn’t really you so you can be who you were meant to be in the first place. Paulo Coelho

Scientists teach us that the male brain is different from the female brain. If someone’s brain is telling them that they are a male, but their body is that of a female, they are a male regardless of what their body looks like.

If, from a soul perspective, a person chooses to help usher in the new evolution of humans who are non-gender specific, they might choose to be non-gender specific or chose a brain that is different from what the body is.

Seldom do we see aliens as gender specific. What if aliens are really humans from a future time. What is they exist in another dimension and are coming into this third-dimensional world to help us grow into greater understanding of human life.

On the Way to Grace . . . Living the Spiritual Path

Posted on April 25, 2024 by Diana Rankin

Those of us who choose the spiritual path always think it’s going to make our lives easier, at least most of us think so when we start out, but too soon we get it that living our lives in a sacred manner is no walk in the park.  At least that’s been my experience.

The next person over may have an easier time of it, but for most of the people I know it’s not written on their birth certificate that “this one shall have an easy life.” For most of us it’s the opposite, and we get to wondering why life can sometimes seem so difficult when we’re such good people and trying our best to be better.

I know the answer to this. “Let go. Go with the flow. Be One with All. Stay in the Moment. Stay in the Love. God/Spirit/Creator, your angels and guides are all with you. I know. I know. I teach this stuff. But teaching and living it are not necessarily the same, and sometimes life is just plain hard.

Even when I know how to make it easier, life can be a challenge that I don’t always feel up to meeting.  Now I have to admit it has gotten easier the more I practice what I teach, or at least the times of angst are shorter and maybe a little less severe. I beg and plead and stomp my feet less and say thank you more. 

I have to admit though that most of the time I’m pretty happy and may go for months in a state of deep contentment with long periods of feeling a jumping-up-and-down excitement and joy. Still there are those times when I walk-off-the-front-porch-and-get-lost-in-the-woods as I refer to the getting lost in worry or sorrow or fret about something or feel stuck when I want to be on the fast track.

Fortunately, these days I don’t stay lost in the woods for too long, but it wasn’t always so, and I remember those times well. Times where I would wake in the middle of the night afraid of what I didn’t know. Afraid of being able to pay the bill. Afraid of getting sick or afraid…Just afraid. Times when I wondered if I really could wake up the next day and get through it. Times when I didn’t want to wake up the next day to get through it.

These times may come back, but fortunately they are not here in this day, and that’s the point—those days of the dark night of the soul do not always linger. Our lives may never be the Garden of Eden and Nirvana may only be glimpsed now and then or may even only be a promise of something that could be, but a promise nevertheless that we can hold onto in hopes of a better tomorrow.

And this is, I believe, what the spiritual path is—a sacred walk through all the human experiences to find that true heart’s desire—union with God, with the Light. It isn’t always about life being easy. It is about continuing to take that next step regardless of the hardships, perhaps even maneuvering between them.

Phillip’s Wisdom on The Shift

Posted on April 18, 2024 by Diana Rankin

This following is from my You Tube message the first week of 2020. It’s an important message to remember as we continue in the turmoil of this election year 2024. Today, I remind you that out of chaos comes greatness. Hang in there. This painful and erratic time shall pass and a new creative and loving renaissance shall emerge.

Diana: When I woke on January 1, 2020, I felt a shift, a lightness, a new hope filled the world. It felt like the tipping point has been reached. It also felt like this hope, this lightness won’t stay but that it had been touched so it would return.

Phillip: What you felt was the collective energy. Many put the decade of the past behind them. This creates the hope that the new decade will bring greater love and peace into the world.

As you experienced, within a few days the lightness in the energy lessened. This said, the tipping point was reached and will reopen.

You were taught a while back, and you have learned, that once a step is taken you never go as far back as the beginning. If you fill a cup, you may spill some from the cup but if you pour the contents into a larger container, you will still have the contents of the original container with additional room to add more.

This is to say that one’s journey is always going forward even if it seems as though the steps forward also contain sliding backward.

Once the Light of Love is felt darkness can never fully diminish it.

The hope that so many felt for the new day, the new year, the new decade—2020—brought forth the shift. The shift has taken place. It cannot be undone.

This said, in this 2020 shift, the darkness is still strong. This must also be remembered, not to discourage but to be aware.

There are those who will deny the darkness and there are those who will deny the light. The truth is in denying neither.

Without denial of the darkness let your concentration be on the light. Where there is fear bring comfort. Where there is anger bring calm. Where there is turmoil bring peace. Where there is misunderstanding bring understanding. Where there is discord bring compassion.

This is not to say we do not raise our hand to say stop. This is most necessary. Raise your hand to reach out not to harm however.

Where there is an injustice step between the one who is harming and the one who is being harmed. Surround them both with love as you call for a stop to the injustice. Recognize that each soul has chosen a path so do not judge why the act is taking place. Instead, recognize that all acts should be of love. If an act is not of love, it is an opportunity for healing to take place.

The healing will affect the collective although it is played out within individuals. The healing of one individual affects 10,000 others who have lived before, who live now, who are not yet born.

This is the soul’s contract.

Your contract, along with many others, is to bring about the shift of hope, which will usher in the new age of enlightenment. This is why you, and many others, experienced the shift. It is for each of you now to hold to your promise to hold—and to practice—the hope in your own lives so that you also hold the energy of hope for the world.

This will not be easy in the coming months. It must be necessary though.

Make God Bigger

Posted on April 17, 2024 by Diana Rankin

“I’m frightened of you.” These were the words of one of the students in my course on Religious Studies. Other students nodded their heads making it known she was their spokesperson and they stood behind her.

“That took a lot of courage for you to say that,” I responded. “Why are you frightened of me?”

“I’m a Christian and I’m afraid you’re going to try tell me I shouldn’t believe in Jesus.”

“Not at all,” I said. “My goal is to help you make your God bigger regardless of your religious beliefs.”

She thought for a moment. Looked around at the other students, and then tilted her head and said, “Okay, we’ll stay, but remember you can’t take our Christianity away from us.”

It was an interesting term that year. Courses on religion usually are, but this was Urbana University, a liberal arts university in the middle of conservative Ohio. Although the students came for the liberal arts education, they nonetheless mainly came from rural farms and small towns where liberal arts didn’t necessarily mean the study of the world. It meant the study of humanities as seen through their traditions.

One of the major assignments was to choose a spiritual practice or religion that was different from their own. Students were to interview an official of that practice and write a term paper that explained the practice and explain how it was the same and how it was different from what they believed and practiced.

As each student turned in the name of the spiritual belief/religion they wanted to write about, it became clear my work was cut out for me. I had given examples they could choose from such as Buddhism, Islam, Zoroastrianism, Judaism, mindfulness, Zen, Native American beliefs and practices, meditation, different spiritual practices and beliefs, ancient prayers, and so on.  Instead of a deeper dive into those beliefs we were studying, each student came back with a choice of a Christian religion that was a different denomination from theirs.

One student was protestant, so he chose a Catholic church. He was so proud to say a priest had agreed to talk with him. Another girl chose to speak with an Amish woman while another student, who was Grace Brethren, wanted to write about the Methodist because they were so different she wasn’t sure they were really Christians.

I don’t mean to make these young people sound ignorant. I understood where they came from. It’s the church I was raised in. Unless you belonged to this specific church, you were a heathen. I was a teenager when I left the church. I saw too much worship on Sunday morning and too much hypocrisy when the sermon ended.

My God became Love and kindness to myself and all beings; my spiritual practice became meditation, reflection, and living in awareness. And that’s what I wanted these young people to learn. God—however practiced in whatever religion or belief—is Love. God is Love.

I stopped pushing my request for the students to write about another religion by my definition and allowed them to write about another religion by their definition.

As the term came near its conclusion, and the papers were turned in, the students talked about how much they had learned. Catholics have a lot of rituals. Kind of cool actually. But they believe in Jesus just like Baptists do. The Amish lady said she couldn’t tell me everything about her community, but I learned they believe in community and in helping others. The Methodist are Christians. We even sing some of the same hymns.

It was the last day of class when she raised her hand. She looked around the room as she stood. “You were right,” she said.

“How’s that?” I asked.

“I’ll always be a Christian and a member of my church,” she said. “But I’ve learned something in this class that I want to teach to others.” She looked around again at the other students as if to gain agreement before she said. “You made my God bigger.”

My heart warmed as I looked around at all the students who were clapping and nodding in agreement. Maybe they hadn’t absorbed the intricacies of Buddhism or complexities of Islam or depth of Zen meditation, but they had grown. And so had their God.

Phillip’s Wisdom on Stress

Posted on April 10, 2024 by Diana Rankin

Conversation with Phillip

Phillip: It is first of all necessary that you know holding the world in divine, sacred light has had an immense impact on the humans’ powers and misguided intentions. War worldwide has not yet been averted but was postponed and can be stopped. Please continue to hold your planet in loving energy to help it heal from the anger that threatens it.

It is for each person to see their own power and bring it together for the collective good of all. This brings forth the shift that was predicted by the ancient ones, myself included. Each who hears/reads my words plays a role assigned and accepted before birth. Each chose to be a part of ushering in the new energies.

You felt the shift of the new energy. This sensitivity, however, does call for caution in taking in energies that cause stress in the emotions, and in turn, the body. The energies of opposites will continue to conflict as the year progresses. This will affect all beings. Those sensitive to it will understand the stress that is related to these opposing energies and use ways to deal with the stress that aides their lives.

Those who are unaware of what is taking place will take out their stress on others and on their bodies until they lift their awareness.

It is for each individual to be aware of their thoughts and emotions that arise from those thoughts. Of course, it is not possible to be aware of every thought, but it is possible to become aware of many.

As you monitor your thoughts, you will become aware of repeated and escalating thoughts that come about rapidly, tightening the muscles, and bringing on stress. Being aware of these thoughts allows you to choose to deescalate or to continue. To continue, of course, allows the stress to continue and build. To deescalate requires you to look beyond the thought to see what is beneath the thought. You are not the thought. By asking yourself what is beneath this thought, you are asking yourself what is beneath this stress. In doing so you will learn what is the truth of what you must heal within your life for this is where the stress truly comes from.

What is the thought beneath the thought? As you learn this answer you may then ask yourself what it is you are to change, what action you are to take.

There are many helpful ways to relax the body and the mind. These are needed to be practiced as you learn that you are not the thought but you are that which is behind the thought.

Diana: Thanks, Phillip. Change the thought and we change the outcome.

Phillip: That is correct. Remember, beneath stress there is often fear. As you pull away the layers you learn the truth. Once you know the truth, you can then deal with that.

Psychic Game for Developing Intuition

Posted on March 26, 2024 by Diana Rankin

This game helps you develop and sharpen your intuition. Developing your intuition opens you to new ideas, keeps you safe in unfamiliar situations, and helps you to make decisions that are best for your life.

With summer fast approaching games are always a favorite way to spend time with family and friends. Whether celebrating together in person, via the internet, or by conference calls, this game is played with as few as two people and as many as your time allows.

Game rules

  1. Decide who is Partner 1 and who is Partner 2.
  2. Partner 1 think about one of the listed suggestions under Game Play Suggestions and Examples below. It’s okay to come up with your own suggestions rather than use those from the suggestion list. Keep your idea simple.
  3. Feel it, see it; do your best to share the energy of what you are thinking about.
  4. Partner 1 tell Partner 2 what you are thinking of but leave out the specifics. For example, you might say, “I’m thinking of an animal.” Do not tell your partner what animal you are thinking about.
  5. Partner 2, relax and tune into Partner 1; simply think about with whom you are talking. You may ask up to 5 questions before saying what Partner 1 is thinking about. It may feel like you’re guessing. That’s okay. You just may surprise yourself.

Phillip’s Wisdom on Sleep in Spirit World

Posted on March 25, 2024 by Diana Rankin

Q: Does anyone in Spirit World sleep?

Phillip’s Answer

It depends on the level at which the soul crosses over. It’s a nonanimated state much like sleep. Of course, there’s no body as you know it that needs rest. Still there is a weariness that may come during the pass over from third dimension world to spirit world, so a time of rest is often appropriate.

It is not a regular evening respite as you have in the human world. Your respite may take only a few minutes, then you continue with your evening.

A soul who crosses over may need rest before moving into and adjusting to life in spirit world. This rest may take many days or, in some cases, even years.

After that, the length—or choice to rest—is up to the individual. I suppose you could say it’s like the way a stone rests in the human world. Rather than being in active thought, the soul goes into a state of restful being.
