Do You Need to Go On a Spiritual Retreat? ∞The Creators, Channeled by Daniel Scranton

“We are The Creators. We are twelfth-dimensional collective of nonphysical beings and we are here to help.

We know that you have lives to live there on Earth and that your lives can be very busy, very hectic indeed, filled with responsibilities and things you have to do. We know that some of you then wonder when you will be able to set aside time for your spiritual work. Some of you wonder, ‘How am I going to fit meditation in to my life today?’ Or you might wonder how you will get to that retreat that you want to go to when you have so many responsibilities at home.

Of course it is nice to have all the time in the world to meditate, channel, commune with nature, go to retreats, and do other workshops that you want to do. But in reality, you want to apply all the principles that you are learning from spiritual texts, spiritual teachers, channeled messages and all the other ways you have of consuming spiritual teachings. What you have already come to know you must apply to your lives, and so as you navigate through your busy, hectic life, you want to be aware of what you have learned and apply it to the situations you find yourselves in.

You want to put it to the test, and you want to benefit from what you know. You want to go beyond theory and into practice. And so, when you don’t have enough time to meditate in a day, then practice more mindfulness, which is being present with what you are doing instead of thinking about something else while you’re doing something completely unrelated to it.

You can practice conscious breathing, you can stand in yoga poses, you can catch thirty seconds of meditation here and thirty seconds of meditation there whenever you can. You can practice kindness, compassion, service, selflessness, all while moving through an everyday ordinary average day in the life of you. And so, we recommend that you stop lamenting the fact that you don’t have enough time to do all the spiritual practices you think you need to do in order to be a spiritually-evolved person and recognize instead that all the problems in your life, and all the people, are there to get you to grow spiritually, and they are there in the exact ways that they are meant to be there.

Let your life and all the people in your life be your teacher, and know that you have everything that you already need to know inside of you. On top of that, you have moment-to-moment guidance coming to you through your feelings. You can always check in with your gut to see what type of guidance you are getting from above. You can check-in with all kinds of parts of your body to do this, because you’re always getting what you need.

And those of us in the higher realms never take our attention off of you. Give yourselves the gift of believing that your life is the spiritual retreat that it is meant to be, and you will always be growing, always be expanding, always becoming more of who you already really are but haven’t realized yet in this lifetime.

We are The Creators, and we love you very much.”

Predictions About Your Lives ∞St. Germain, Channeled by Daniel Scranton

“I am St. Germain, keeper of the violet flame.

You have determined for yourselves what so many of the outcomes in your lives will be, but you do not realize that you have done this. Sometimes you are even surprised by what unfolds, even though it fits in perfectly with your beliefs about your life, yourself, and your reality. If you are not willing to examine what your expectations are, then you are not willing to change what you are thinking, feeling, and believing, and you are likely to play out the same scenarios over and over again in your lives. Perhaps there will be different characters playing different roles for you, but you will have the same or similar outcomes or results until you look within and you ask yourself what you are thinking, doing, saying, and believing, that keeps you in the same cycles.

Self-examination is very important, and sometimes and often, it is prompted by a willingness to change what’s outside of you in your physical reality, and that’s fine. Ideally, however, you would want to make a change because of how something felt when you entertained it as a thought, word, or belief. If you can catch yourselves at that level before something manifests into your reality, it will often then be easier for you to make the necessary changes within yourselves. You can course correct.

Once you have manifested something that is unwanted into your life experience, then you also have to deal with that while looking at, examining, the beliefs, the thoughts, the words, the habits of action that brought it about into your experience. And so, a good process for all of you to partake in is to write down what your desires are for your life right now, And then ask yourself what your expectations are about those desires. And then ask yourselves, ‘Why are these my expectations?’ ‘Why do I think this is how it’s going to go in this scenario or with this person?’

You have to be willing to live a life of self-examination in order to grow, in order to evolve, in order to feel yourself, becoming more of your higher self which is what everyone wants whether they know it or not. And so, I recommend doing that little process that has the potential of changing everything because you are likely to come up with some answers to the question of, ‘Why do I think that’s going to be the outcome?’ And in the examination of those answers, you can dismantle some of them, you can stop giving power to some of them, and you can allow others of them to catalyze you into making a new, different, better choice for you.

You live a self-fulfilling prophecy in many ways, and if you don’t like what you are living, it’s time of the to change the prophecy. You are the only one who can do that.
