Who's Rooting In Your Corner?

How do you know when you have done the right thing? Especially when it comes to choosing your life purpose? I recently posted a blog and sent an actual email with the same information of me Coming out of the Closet. It talks about me really stepping into my role and how I stumbled upon figuring out what I am supposed to do on this earthly sojourn.


Before I sent this email I had had this revelation and told my parents about it. More so my mother than anybody. I know that in today's day and age, and even in the generations before mine, talking to one's parents is not always the easiest thing. Some children never even have profound conversations with their parents. Mostly it's because of respect or the age difference.


Fortunately in this lifetime I have manifested amazing and supportive parents. I know no one, including myself, is perfect. I strive for perfection at times and often fall very short of it. As a young woman growing up one realizes at different phases in life, that our parents fall short as well.  And that's OK!


I remember as a little girl hearing about an adult falling down. I could not stop laughing!
(Note: The person was not injured) It just seemed so odd and absurd! An adult!? Falling down?! Well I've NEVER! (Remember I was a little girl).


There have many times that I feel my parents have disappointed me, that I have been disillusioned. Perhaps because they didn't get things right the first time, don't know everything that I want them to know, don't know how to act, or don't say what I want to hear. That's the reality a child goes through at some point in their lives when it comes to their parents. It's a bit life altering, some events more challenging than others.  So I understand and know what it feels like to want to blame my parents for many things gone wrong in my life. Key Words are "Want to blame".


The truth is, I do not blame my parents for anything. Everything happens exactly as it was meant to happen. and that in itself is perfection. and knowing that my parents in this lifetime are a blessing, I give thanks. I am grateful because not many parents are even around their children's lives as adults. I am grateful because my parents actually tell me they love me, often! Yes, I know, I am blessed! and I am truly grateful.


So why this blog? Why this rant about parents and how mine are so supportive? It's important to have people surround you that are supportive. If they are not parents, they can be aunts, uncles, siblings, cousins, neighbors, friends, colleagues, co+workers, children, and the like, the point is to have a SUPPORT group. Who is it that you hang out with, spend most of your time with? To whom do you go for advice? A shoulder to cry on? A helping hand? Or when you need a nice swift kick in the ***!?


To whom do you describe your dreams? Who listens to your goals? Who believes in you? EVEN when You have lost faith in yourself?


Luckily for me my parents believe in me. They might not have always known what exactly I do, or what my plan is but their unconditional love has shined through.


It's the moment when: after I tell my mom my aspirations, she tells me that her life has changed because of what I have taught her. That moment, those words alone, besides bringing tears to my eyes, really confirmed why I am here.



Of course there are other people in my life, but today, for whom are you grateful? Observe the people around you and make sure that you have a team of cheerleaders! and if you don't, then FIND Your PEOPLE! You do have your angels! You can ask your Angels to help you connect with amazing, loving, honest, (put your own adjectives in), ..... supportive people. ***REMEMBER***: You can always start with yourself!

TRANSCENDING

TRUST! TRUST! TRUST!

I was having doubts in my life, as a normal human being. I remembered a woman I admire saying she would go to a Trapeze class often. It helps one get out of overanalyzing. A few days after this memory, I noticed a special deal for a Trapeze class online.... Could this be a sign? (I thought to myself)...
YES!!!


It was affordable, so I signed up!
I arrived barely on time and as I was putting on all these contraptions around my body, I realized the instructor was already going through the steps while on the trapeze! This all happened within the first five minutes of being there! I was nervous. At this point my SUPER analytical side came out and I asked the instructor to go over the steps once again.


Mind you, this is my first time doing this and they just say something to the following effect:

"You will get on the bar, put your feet up on the bar, release your hands, put them back on, take your feet off the bar, and then let your hands go as you gravitate onto the net."


HA HA ... uhmmm .... Yeah, I asked for a third explanation. Oh no, the instructor said, "your body will just do it, don't think about it too much."


Thank Goodness I was not the first person to go on the trapeze. So I have to clasp the harness on my body to some other straps hanging from who knows where, put some chalk on my hands (to make sure I can grasp the trapeze bar), climb up this TALL ladder, and that's before I get to the Trapeze!


Ok so up I go, I am beginning to feel a bit nauseous. It seems that the higher I go, the more dizzy and faint I am feeling. I am thinking to myself... what in the world am I doing?!? It's very similar to when you are going on a big roller coaster for your first time; and a feeling of "I don't know if I can handle this, or did I bite off more than I can chew?"


As I get to the top, I actually feel physically weak! I really want to pass out now. I remember words of advice to say how I feel three times. "I am scared, I am scared, I am scared". Then right after I said "I am safe. I am safe. I am safe." Miraculously, I wasn't as scared and no longer felt the need to faint.  ALLELUIA!


I got ready and held on for my dear life!! literally! As the helper let go of my harness, and I jumped into the air holding on to only the trapeze bar, I felt numb.


The instructor on earth (ha) tells me how to maneuver my body: "legs up! Hands down! Hands up, Legs down! Release!" It is the only thing I could hear while transcending amidst the air.


I really had to trust this net was going to catch me as I was suspended between gravity, the air and earth, I realized that I had let go. Let go of expectations, I trusted! Trusted Universe would provide in some way, shape or form.  And as I landed gracefully on the net, I laid still for a few seconds to let my soul reconnect with my body. I could not stop shaking. I couldn't believe my body just did some crazy moves it had never done before.


It really was amazing that not going over the steps again and again would help me. I would have been in my head too much.





Sometimes in life, we feel there is no net in life to catch us, that if we are too scared, faint, nauseous, or whatever your ego & body tells you, we can just back out. That is true! You can back out!      ...

BUT WHY WOULD YOU!

Life is too short to be scared, to wonder if your life would be different had you done X, Y, and Z.  Live Today, for tomorrow is not promised and today is a PRESENT.


Stay tuned for my next adventure .... Surfing! yes, this seems scary to me!

Animals, Birds & Butterflies

"You are not alone. I am here with you. So we're far apart. Always in my heart". (Michael Jackson)

Those words come to me as I have been pondering on my walks on the beach in the morning. I live and spend a lot of time at the beach, as I should! A few days ago, I was riding my bicycle, minding my own business and I just couldn't help notice a HUGE bird that was just towering over a trash can.

As I rode away, I couldn't help thinking how ENORMOUS that black bird was. I know there are seagulls and many birds of the sea, but this was not one I had seen often, or before. Maybe it was a Raven, they look like Crows but are much bigger.

Late last week I saw what looked like a hawk as I was driving. I have noticed as well many butterflies as I am riding my bicycle or walking. I saw a beautiful Monarch butterfly. Typically I see the orange butterflies.  Then today I saw a red bird flying here and there in front of my car as I drove for about half a mile. ... So what are all these animals, birds, butterflies doing in my life?


These are your angels, your guides, your Creator showing you so many things!

1. Take a moment to notice something outside of your daily life!
2. These living creatures have messages for you! Ask them intuitively what is their message.
3. You ARE NOT ALONE!
Here on earth, life can be yucky at times and there are challenges we, as people, face on a day to day basis. This allows us to forget how much our Creator/Universe/Goddess loves us... YOU! ME!
These creatures are messengers, they are like our angels, they send us blessings, LOVE, support and they also act as a guide for our next steps. So next time you are outside, take note of even a ladybug!
And see if your Life, even for a Still Moment does not feel at ease. Relax in knowing you do have a support system in Heaven Loving you and Surrounding you with all YOU NEED!

When Was The Last Time You Felt Like A Child Having Fun?

When was the last time you had fun? Lived carefree? and played in the sand? or enjoyed something you did when you were a child? ..... WHY HAS IT BEEN SO LONG???

I'm at a park recently, it's the beginning of summer. My nine year old cousin asks me if we can stay at the park so she can play on the swings. I thought the answer would be NO right away. Still contemplating the question and everything I had planned to do, I thought a few minutes wouldn't hurt.

As she ran off, I found myself thinking what am I going to do?? It then hit me! My inner child really began nudging me.... "let's get on the swing!" HA HA HAHA my adult self laughed. I couldn't possibly want to get on a swing. Then something happened. My inner child really dug down deep and triggered memories that I hadn't thought of in years!
Just thinking of how much I use to LOVE the swings! I remembered that the minute I would set foot at the park, I would BOLT to the swing to make sure I had one! I remembered at a family event when I was probably 11, I sent a cousin of mine to run and grab me a swing so that by the time I got there, I wouldn't have to wait until someone was done. Oh yeah! I was a Queen of Swings! oh wait I still am. ha ha

The feeling of being a child, of finding the JOY in something so simple as swinging in a playground, was something I forgot. and it really did bring tears to my eyes. Had I, me, crossed the into the world of being an adult?!!!? So serious and BORING?!!! ahhh!!! Forgetting what it felt like to play? To run around and live carefree? To feel the breeze in my hair and on my face? To feel as if I am flying everytime the swing goes forward?


OH NO!!! I was an adult! It hit me! I had to be reminded, by my inner child, what it felt like to have fun at the park! HOW SAD!!!  and what was even MORE sad, it took me a LONG time to remember when the last time I was on a swing.... It was 10 years ago!!! a WHOLE DECADE without swings! No wonder I had a hard time finding my happiness! There hadn't been playgrounds in my life! Me.... 10 years ago....


Being an adult with or without children, doesn't mean you have to live life so seriously, so I have remembered. I have been on the swings a few more times since then. I stop and smell the flowers more often. I have done some cartwheels too!

Find some time today, this week, to allow your inner child take over your body and enjoy something you haven't in over 10, 20, 30, 50 years, or more! Love yourself to every extent and KNOW that you deserve this LAUGHTER and FUN! I send you many angels! and fairies to help you get out of the serious mode!

SO I've had a rough day, more like a few rough moments in the past month! BUT who hasn't. Between reading T. Harv Eker's, Secrets of a Millionaire Mind, not complaining and TRUSTING God, Universe and my angels that Everything happens for a reason and in Divine Timing.... I have emotional moments.
I was talking to a prospective client today and I came up with a simple:

5 STEPS HOW TO STOP & REVERSE OVERWHELM
There are times in our daily lives where we feel so rushed, stressed, and disconnected that we are literally inviting more negative energy into our world. The following is the quickest way to actually stop this downward spiral pattern so that you can get back to a higher energy and complete your daily tasks without ... going crazy... I mean easily & effortlessly. :)

  1. STOP WHAT YOU ARE DOING! (take a moment to reset) 
    1. If you are driving, pull over!
    2. If you are with others, excuse yourself & find a quiet place... YES, even if it's the bathroom!
  2. BREATHE DEEPLY (Get your mind & body into the present)
    1. Speak out loud what you see, & feel NOW
      1. I see a blue car
      2. I feel the steering wheel.
    2. Keep breathing deeply 3 to 10 times.
    3. By this time your mind has taken over your future and you are only focusing on negativity so CHANGE THAT CHANNEL and TUNE INTO DIVINITY!
  3. CALL ON YOUR ANGELS (Keep breathing deeply so they can connect)
    1. Because we have free will, the angels can only intervene in emergency situations, thus, ASK!
    2. Clearly state: "Angels give me clear signs that you are with me right now; and/or guide me to the next step."
    3. Keep breathing deeply and be open to receiving signs NOW!
      1. **ANGELS that are good to call on when stressed & overwhelmed:
        1. Archangel Michael "Please cut any chords to situations and to people that do not serve me a purpose any longer"
        2. Archangel Raphael "Please heal me in mind, body and spirit"
        3. Archangel Jophiel "Please beautify my thoughts"
  4. IF YOU ARE STILL OVERWHELMED (Keep breathing deeply. YES, they are still working on you)
    1. List 10 things for which you are REALLY Grateful!
      1. My car, job, a home, a place to live, the money I do have in my bank account, the money that is coming to me, my family, my children, my hands, my feet, my capability to hear, to see, to feel, to be ALIVE, etc.... C'mon work with me here! ;)
    2. Be Clear & Honest with your list! (see examples above)
    3. FEEL the LOVE for that which you are grateful! REALLY!
    4. SMILE
  5. IN DESPERATE MEASURES... IF YOU ARE STILL IN YOUR PITY PARTY OF 1...
    1. Please if you have not done so by now, separate yourself from everyone & anyone as you are now what I call an "Energy Sucking Vampire"
    2. Volunteer where there are people, less fortunate than YOUR situation! and help those less fortunate. THIS helps you realize there REALLY are others in a situation worse than YOU!
START OVER if needed! Cutting corners only cheats you, your capability to REALLY shine, and get back to YOUR Magnificent SELF!
You are going through this difficult time because this is a lesson! This is an opportunity for growth. I know it seems hard but it's what you do NOW, in these moments, that Define who you really are!

SO WHO DO YOU WANT TO BE? ... Signing off for now... Miss Xochi, Creating Angelic Experiences. www.lxavalos.com <3 <3 Sending you all Love & Angels.

Who I Am

Who I AM!

Many of you know me very well and I am blessed to know you all personally. I have had at least one conversation with you, of that I am sure.

THE BIG NEWS!!!! … I have left the "traditional" lifestyle of work.
I would like to share WHO I AM because I no longer want to hide my TRUE essence from you and many others. I have learned many lessons in my life and am now coming out of my closet! (And NO I still love men! Not that closet.) I notice that I have been holding back who I really am with some of my friendships and those with whom I spend time. This is a disservice to all of us.

I FINALLY know what my Life Purpose is. But before I tell you, I want to share with you a little history …

I remember as a little girl, playing hypnotizing games when I was about 5.  The paranormal has always been BEYOND interesting to me. And from the age of 7 +, when faced with many challenges, my intuition guided me, although never realizing what it was until much older.

As an adult in 2003, I really started working on myself: I started figuring out that there were more people in the world like me, and I had work to do in order to be honest with myself and my Creator. I came to this realization because I was tired of not seeing my dreams come closer, I wanted peace, and I felt depressed, sad, and hopeless. I wanted CHANGE. I finally realized nothing was going to change, unless I did.

My suspicions of being an intuitive were confirmed constantly, when I would make phone calls and different people would say “I was just thinking about you”, I would joke around by saying “it’s because I am psychic”. Ha ha, I still say that now!
I kept myself busy by reading quite a few spiritual books, many of world renowned author & psychic: Sylvia Brown.  In 2005, I had a chance to spend A LOT of time listening to internet radio shows.  I began to listen to motivational speakers, healers, coaches, & spiritual practitioners intently, that were all new to me. And for the first time in my life, I felt like “There are OTHER people in the world like me!” as if I was some sort of secluded species. I could talk to other people about past lives and spirits, what life after death could be like and people would not think I am crazy or going to hell! Which I don’t believe in EITHER! I am not saying this to have you believe what I believe.

I am writing this to let you know that I am coming out as a Magnificent Spiritual Being! Now I FINALLY know what my Life Purpose is. I am a Spiritual Coach, “Angel On Call”, Manifesting Mama, with certifications from Dr. Doreen Virtue as an ANGEL THERAPY PRACTITIONER®, Medium and working on International Public Speaker.

Many of you already know this about me and have CALLED ME for guidance, suggestions, and even an ear to listen to your situations. I have done my best to never judge and be that person to lift your vibration, your energy and lighten up your load. I know NOW that is why I am here on earth. I love helping people. I love to be a friend to help many realize that each of you are not alone in what you are going through – since I, too, have gone through many of the same struggles.

I’ve had many indications and confirmations time and time again that it is not meant for me to be at a 9-5 job. My energy is too intense and my purpose is far too great!

I now work FULL TIME for God/Universe/Goddess and I help you connect to your angels, give positive messages of loving guidance from your angels, lift vibrations so that you know how special of a person, a soul, you really are! I also help you reconnect with loved ones that have passed on from this lifetime.

This has all taken me some time to realize this all for myself. I have been afraid to tell people, to be mocked, and be talked about saying things such as I am working with evil, and/or all those negative comments. I know that God is beautiful and more amazing than I can ever even imagine.

I just want to let you all know that this is who I AM, and this is not just a career!  This is truly a livelihood that only helps me be a better person day by day. I am not perfect and don’t claim to be. I am on this earth to learn lessons just like everyone else.
In honoring God and my Life Purpose I am stepping into full-time work as “The Angel on Call” (http://www.lxavalos.com). What I am requesting is for support, in all forms. If you refer me to anybody you know who may be struggling or needs clarity, I would also greatly appreciate that! I pray that each of you have found your destiny or are working towards it, if not I would love to be a resource for you as well! I send you many angels! Love! And may God protect you with the White Light of the Holy Spirit!
