How to love yourself?

A meaningful piece… and i dedicate it to a friend cos there’s a part of it which i think is relevant to her situation (hope she knows who she is). For the whole channeling, you may visit here: http://www.cosmiclighthouse.com/nov07/channelings/lanto

Lee: So perhaps, could you explain how does one give love to oneself? It sounds very simple but in practice it can be very difficult.

Lanto
: Yes indeed, and this is an excellent question. In the ten days that we have been here with our channel this has been the main theme and you would be surprised at the number of souls who have come to us and asked exactly this question. So we would tell you that the most important thing here is to honour the needs of your soul and your body, and by that we mean that when you are tired you should rest. When you are feeling restless because perhaps you have been at the computer too long, like our channel, you must give your body the exercise that it needs. When you wish to take a walk in nature or spend some time in nature then you must do so. Instead of buying the food that you know is good for you, the organic food I think you call it, many of you say “Oh well, it’s a little too expensive. I won’t buy that, I’ll do just as well on the other food” and the answer is no you won’t, because you will continue to put toxins into your body and so, if you feel the call to buy organic food, then answer that call. Buy it because your body is telling you that that is what it needs. If you wish to spend time with your partner, then do it. Do not worry about the work that you think you won’t get through, or you need to do, or the people who need your help and you feel that you ought to go and help them. If you feel the desire to help someone, then do that. It is very healing.

So answer the needs of your body and answer the needs of your soul. If you are in an unhappy relationship, then leave it. That is what your soul is calling you to do. Do not worry too much. We know that this is very difficult for you – but when you begin to worry about “O what will so-and-so say? What will my mother say? What will my children say?”, stop that thought immediately and tell yourself that you are honouring the call of your soul and there is no higher purpose. So that is the most important thing to do, that is the fundamental. Once you feel a little more comfortable with doing this, then you can start to work with other things that will work on your body gently to release the sense of duty, or responsibility or obedience within you because we understand that there are many human laws, but there are also Divine laws and it is these laws that we ask you to follow. And so, this is what we mean if you are in an unhappy marriage.

One of our clients today – one of the souls that came to this channel – said “If I am not meant to leave my husband then I will sacrifice my own joy so that my sons may be happy.” And, of course this is not possible. You cannot sacrifice your joy so that others may be happy. You must fully engage with your own joy – the divine joy, the creativity, the fulfilment, the honouring of your gifts in order to allow others to connect with theirs, especially in such difficult situations as a member of a family wishing to leave it, such as a mother or a father.

You must honour these callings you know. There is a great deal of fear around such actions and there is no blame or judgement here. We understand you. We wish simply to tell you that if you can step through the pain – the initial pain – you will find great joy, great healing and abundance coming to you because you are honouring the needs of your soul and therefore you are not blocking the flow of energy. Not simply of financial wealth, but of health; of happiness; of creativity; of love; of passion; of time, of simple laughter – things that nourish your soul and that encourage your soul’s growth.

So let us come on to easier things, shall we say. Once major block has been worked through – and it does not mean to say that you need to do one before you can do the other – but one must be the priority and that is to change your thinking. Accept your divinity! Accept that as a divine being all you need to do is honour the needs of your soul. There is no selfishness, for how can there be – you are divine!

You can take flower or animal essences and there are many of these available. Choose the ones which attract you most strongly – they will be right for you – and choose the essences that help you release these fears: bring you joy, abundance, childlike laughter and you will note that in a short while your attitude will have changed. You will be able to more easily reconnect with the joy and the tremendous courage within you: the compassion, unconditional love.

Another way is to use crystals; another way is to balance your chakras; another way is to have energy healing; another way is to use the Aura Soma system; another way is to do breathing – breath work – through Chinese systems and yoga. So there are many ways that you can help release the energy of fear and judgement, to move forward into joy. So that is what we mean when we say you must learn to love yourself. You must learn to put yourself and your needs first – not in a selfish way, but simply by remembering that you are divine and, within your divinity it is not possible for you to be selfish or judgemental, or full of fear. It is only possible for you to love unconditionally: for you to accept totally; for you to trust completely and for you to see that everything and everyone is perfect.

Lee: So we should allow our divine joy – our own joy – to guide us?

Lanto: Absolutely

Lee: But I guess , in doing so that we should be mindful of not hurting others?

Lanto
: Yes, but as you reconnect with your divinity you will no longer need to remind yourself of this because as a divinity it would not enter your mind, as you say in this language. As a divinity you only wish to love and accept and bring gifts to those around you. That does not, of course, mean to say that, in your love for a soul, you do not cause temporary difficulties because your love allows you to bring them a lesson which they need to learn in order for them to move forward. But as a divinity you will see the difference. You will understand the difference and you will know that this pain is the pain that brings wonderful gifts, tremendous healing and much joy.
