Guided Meditation - Aligning with your Spirit Self
Hello Friends, Please enjoy this guided meditation where I highlight loving messages from A Course in Miracles lesson #97 - I am Spirit. I cannot reinforce the importance of tuning into your Spirit Identity enough. Through doing so, your mind literally heals! And, as I reference in this meditation and is shared in lesson 97; "Today we try to bring reality still closer to your mind. Each time you practice, awareness is brought a little nearer at least; sometimes a thousand years or more are saved." So, get ready to spend several minutes moving beyond the awareness of the body to the realm of Spirit! Lots of Love, Fiona XO

Moment of Alignment 26 ~ A Reframe for When You're Fearful
Hello Friends, In this Moment of Alignment, I share a deeply comforting reframe which can help cut through fearful moments. This is a reframe I use frequently and it really helps to shift your mind from focusing on the ego's thought system of fear to the loving Thought System of Spirit where healing is the goal and the result! In this episode, I reference ACIM lesson #193 - All things are lessons God would have me learn. As promised in this episode, here are links to the "Time for Forgiveness" replays where I walk you through the True Forgiveness process if you feel you need further support understanding the process and how to apply it...

Moment of Alignment 25 ~ Let God Love You
Hello Friends! In this Moment of Alignment, I share about the practice of allowing God to love and care for you. I begin by sharing a personal story where I felt I could use some comfort during a challenge and how I came to recognize that I was the one who was resisting God's Love and care for me. This was a powerful realization and I wanted to share it with you! In this episode, I refer to ACIM lesson #50; "I am sustained by the Love of God." This is an incredible lesson which invites you to replace your ego control with the acknowledgement of God's Love. Vital to this lesson is the recognition that you are formless Mind, capable of choosing for Spirit over the ego at any time. May this episode be helpful for you! Lots of Love!! Fiona

Moment of Alignment 24 ~ This Need Not Be
Hello Friends, In this week's Moment of Alignment, I highlight the power of your mind to either make suffering or welcome healing! A major part of the ego's agenda is to distract us from recognizing our Spiritual Truth and part of that distraction agenda is for the ego to hide the fact that we are mind - a mind which can choose for or against the ego. As Course students, we are aiming to create the habit of choosing against the ego by choosing for Spirit instead. This week's Moment of Alignment elaborates upon this ever-present choice. Inspiring this week's Moment of Alignment are Miracle Principles #12 & #24, along with sections from Chapter Four of the text in section Four, titled; This Need Not Be. I truly hope you enjoy this loving reminder! Lots of Love, Fiona

Moment of Alignment 23 ~ Trusting that Healing is Occurring
Hello Friends! In this week's Moment of Alignment, I share about trusting that healing is occurring. This is a helpful topic because, as you will learn, healing is done at the unconscious level of our minds and so the effects of healing are not always visible to us. Even though you can't always recognize when healing is occurring, it is comforting to develop a trust in the Holy Spirit that you're on the right path whenever you do choose to forgive. To help with this topic, I refer to the following Miracle Principles from the beginning section of the Course's text: Miracle Principle #25, Miracle Principle #35, and Miracle Principle #45. I truly hope you enjoy this episode which will help you to strengthen your trust and let go of ego control. Lots of Love! Fiona

A Worthy Conversation ~ A Chat with Corinne Zupko on Worthiness
Hello Friends, In this episode, I share a replay of a recent conversation I had with best-selling author, Corinne Zupko, on the topic of worthiness! In this chat, Corinne and I highlight the importance of looking at difficult memories and challenging thoughts with the help of our Higher Self (the Holy Spirit). We also share personal experiences of where we each had to do the same in our lives and the peace which has come from doing so. Corinne and I also share and elaborate upon awesome teachings from A Course in Miracles which speak to our inherent worthiness as the Child of Source along with sooo much more!! I truly hope you enjoy this insightful and helpful conversation and that it helps to remind you that you are so much more than the ego ever suggested! Lots of Love! Fiona XO

A Chat with Cindy Lora-Renard ~ A Right-Minded Approach to Healing
Hello Friends, This episode is a replay of an insightful chat I had with best-selling author, Cindy Lora-Renard! In this conversation, Cindy and I share about how we've each incorporated ACIM's Right-Minded teachings to our challenges. We are promised in the Course that applying the Course's teachings is practical. The techniques Cindy and I share really speak to this practical application of the Course's teachings and how you can weave them into your daily life no matter what you are facing. A wonderful addition to this conversation are two songs written and sung by Cindy herself! The first song is titled; "Above the Battleground" and the second song is titled; "The Gift of Love". Both songs gently reinforce the Course's teachings and I think they are a beautiful way to take in the loving messages of A Course in Miracles. <3 I truly hope you enjoy Cindy's music and our casual chat about how we each apply the teachings of A Course in Miracles to our own lives! Lots of Love!! Fiona XO

Moment of Alignment 22 ~ True Gratitude
Hello Friends, In this week's Moment of Alignment, I would like to highlight True Gratitude. In our society, we are used to partaking in a contrived form of gratitude where we list the things, people and circumstances in our life which we are grateful for. This type of gratitude is a surface-level form of gratitude and really only highlights that which is in the illusion therefore reinforcing the illusion in your mind. It is helpful, then, to take things a bit deeper and acknowledge the inherent Oneness which is the foundation of Truth and your Reality. <3 I speak about how to welcome an experience of True Gratitude and how you can incorporate this practice into your life and into the upcoming holiday season in particular. Lots of Love! Fiona XO

Moment of Alignment 21 ~ Love as the Healer
Hello Friends, In this week's Moment of Alignment, I share a beautiful quote from author, Stephen Levine, about the healing power of love. I elaborate on this topic from the perspective of A Course in Miracles and highlight the naturalness of Love as it is our True Identity. I also will guide you through a brief meditative exercise where you can practice bringing a challenge in your life into the healing power of Source's Love. I truly hope this is a helpful episode for you! Lots of Love, Fiona

Moment of Alignment 20 ~ Feeling Free
Hello Friends, In this week's Moment of Alignment, I highlight the beauty of feeling free and where the desire for freedom really stems from. To help with this episode, I refer to ACIM lesson 199; "I am not a body. I free." In this lesson, we are reminded that the body is a limit and is not our True Identity. I delve further into this important topic and how we can use a longing for freedom as a reminder of our True State as formless Spirit. I hope you enjoy this episode and that it helps remind you that you are so much more than what the ego has suggested! Lots of Love, Fiona XO

Moment of Alignment 19 ~ Do You Remember Feeling Joyful?
Hello Friends, Do you remember what joy feels like? In our physical experience, we are met with the ego at every turn and it requires our vigilance for peace to not follow the ego down every rabbit hole. Throughout our daily life, we experience the intrusive thoughts and deal with the effects of taking those thoughts seriously. Simply put, we can find ourselves hopping from fear thought to fear thought and missing opportunities for joy. In this week's Moment of Alignment, I highlight the importance of making time to experience joy. I share how to do so and the beauty of allowing joy to come to our awareness. In this episode, I look to lesson 138 in A Course in Miracles to offer us wisdom on how to welcome the Truth. I truly hope this episode is helpful for you! Lots of Love, Fiona

56
Moment of Alignment 18 ~ Bringing it Back to God
Hello Friends, In this week's Moment of Alignment, I would like to reinforce the Truth that God is our only Source. In this physical experience, it can be too easy to forget that we are One in God as the "evidence" of separation seems to be everywhere. Yet, beneath the ego's facade of separation is the inherent Truth - Oneness. To remember our Oneness in God, it is helpful to intentionally let our thinking be led back to this Truth. If you've been through the Course's lessons, you are already familiar with this practice, but there are other ways to bring God into focus throughout your day. I highlight the Course's suggestions on how to do just that in this episode. I truly hope this episode serves you! Lots of Love, Fiona XO

Moment of Alignment 17 ~ When You Feel Stuck, Remember This
Hello Friends, In this week's Moment of Alignment, I would like to highlight a subtle way you may be sabotaging yourself. In this episode, I share about the importance of recognizing the words you are using to describe yourself and situations you are experiencing. Your unconscious mind is very sensitive to the words you use and this is something to be aware of. I hope this episode is empowering for you and reminds you to be careful about the thoughts you choose to believe and repeat. Lots of Love! Fiona XO
-
54
Moment of Alignment 16 ~ Your Real Story
Hello Friends, In this week's Moment of Alignment, I thought it would be helpful and heart-warming to highlight some of the Course's teachings around your Reality and your True Identity. Consistent repetition of the Truth is one of the most helpful things you can do for yourself while you appear to be in this world and I hope this episode is a good reminder. In this episode, I refer to both Miracle Principle #17 from the Course as well as Lesson 231: "Father, I will but to remember You". Miracle Principle #17 speaks to the healing power of acknowledging our True Identity as Spirit whereas Lesson 231 helps us to open our minds and make room for the Truth to come to the forefront of our awareness. I truly hope this episode helps you to remember the Truth about Who you really are. Lots of Love, Fiona XO

Moment of Alignment 15 ~ The Point of Decision
Hello Friends :) In this week's Moment of Alignment, I share about the point of decision in your mind where you choose either for the ego or for Spirit! The moment we choose for Spirit is known in A Course in Miracles as being the Holy Instant. And it is through consistently choosing for the Holy Instant that you will move the needle on your spiritual path and begin experiencing the benefits of your choice for sanity and peace. I hope you enjoy this episode and that it is a helpful reminder for you! Lots of Love, Fiona XO
-
52
Moment of Alignment 14 ~ Unconditional Forgiveness
Hello Friends, In this week's Moment of Alignment, I highlight the importance of unconditional forgiveness. At the level of the world, unconditional forgiveness can seem like a big ask especially with seemingly extreme challenges. Yet, the forgiveness we are guided to do in A Course in Miracles is not based on the world being real, True Forgiveness is based on the world being an illusion. This means that we don't need to try and reconcile the ego (it is insane and unreconcilable!) but that we let our investment in the ego go because it is an illusion. However seemingly painful our challenges may be at times, they are an experience but not our Reality. So, we can, when we're ready, let them go in peace. <3 I share more about this in this episode! Lots of Love! Fiona XO

Time for Forgiveness ~ Foundations of True Forgiveness
Hello Friends, In this episode, you will hear the replay of the most recent 'Time for Forgiveness' session where I covered the foundations of True Forgiveness according to A Course in Miracles.

Lots of Love, Fiona XO

Moment of Alignment 13 ~ God's Grace
Hello Friends, In this week's Moment of Alignmment, I share about the loving teaching in A Course in Miracles which is God's grace. In our physical experience, it can be easy to get overwhelmed and entrenched in the ego's madness. Thankfully though, we are given the reminder in the Course of the Truth of God's Love. Ultimately, it is the unconditional Love of our Source which will replace our investment in the ego's playground. I hope you enjoy this week's episode where I share more about this beautiful topic! Lots of Love!! Fiona XO

Moment of Alignment 12 ~ What Ego Story Are You Holding Onto?
Hello Friends :) In this week's Moment of Alignment episode, I highlight a powerful teaching from the Course's Manual for Teachers section about healing! What is shared in this teaching shows us how we are preventing the healing of our minds from occurring and nudges us to pay attention to what we are investing in. I'm so excited to share this episode with you as it is something which has helped me greatly on my own healing path. <3 Lots of Love!! Fiona XO P.S. You can find the section I'm referring to in A Course in Miracles in the Manual for Teachers, page 17.

Moment of Alignment 11 ~ Releasing Ego Strain
Hello Friends, In this week's Moment of Alignment, I highlight a common yet subtle way the ego shows up in your daily experience. My aim with this episode, is to help you increase your self-awareness as to when you are ego mode. Once you recognize you're doing things with the ego, you can take practical steps to correct the trajectory of your thinking so you can begin to feel better and more spiritually aligned. I hope this episode is helpful for you! Lots of Love, Fiona XO

Moment of Alignment 10 ~ How to Know WHEN to Forgive
Hello Friends, In this week's Moment of Alignment, I bring clarity to a question I often receive in my client sessions; "How do I know when to forgive?" When you know when forgiveness is necessary, it will be easier for you to strengthen your personal forgiveness practice. Remember that in A Course in Miracles we are taught that our purpose here in this world is to forgive and so it is vitally important we have clarity on this topic! I hope you enjoy this week's Moment of Alignment and that it serves you in your forgiveness practice. Lots of Love, Fiona XO

Moment of Alignment 9 ~ Learning to 'Just Be'
Hello Friends, In this week's Moment of Alignment, I highlight a comforting teaching from A Course in Miracles which helps us to relax and just be. In this episode, I share how the ego mind encourages us to be unnecessarily fussy about things as well as hyper-focused on this world. When we follow the ego's perception of things we can easily come to feel overwhelmed and stressed. There is no peace in this. Thankfully, there is also the more simplistic approach to this world which is to do things WITH Spirit in charge. Through doing so, we experience more peace, joy, and also certainty that we are on the right track Home. I hope you enjoy this week's Moment of Alignment and that it helps you to remember to put Spirit in charge and relax a little more frequently. Lots of Love, Fiona

Moment of Alignment 8 ~ Where to Start On Your Healing Journey
Hello Friends, In this week's Moment of Alignment, I answer a common question I get from client's beginning their healing journey which is "Where do I start?". Before answering this question, it is important to recognize that the ego will always seek to make things complex and attempt to cloud your awareness with meaningless distractions. Yet, Spirit simplifies the ego's nonsense and helps us steady our focus so we can focus on healing. The answer to the question of "Where do I begin on my healing journey?" is simpler than you may have thought, and I hope this episode will help you gain the clarity you need so you can walk confidently on your healing path with Spirit! Lots of Love, Fiona XO

Time for Forgiveness ~ Forgiving Parents
Hello Friends, In this 'Time for Forgiveness' meeting replay, I share all about the topic of forgiving parents. The teachings of A Course in Miracles are meant to be applied to ALL areas of our lives which includes the challenges we can experience with our parents/caregivers. In this episode, I highlight the Course's teachings around 'special love' and 'special hate' relationships and also the roles of both victim and victimzer which show up in these relationships. It is important that we all come to the point where we look WITH the Holy Spirit at the perceptions we hold about our parents/caregivers, and also the dynamics which play out in these relationships. Doing so can help us get to the point where we sincerely want to forgive and release our pain. I truly hope this is a helpful episode for you and that it serves you in welcoming healing to your parental/caregiver relationships! Lots of Love, Fiona XO
-
43
Moment of Alignment 7 ~ Relaxing Your Approach to Healing
Hello Friends, In this week's Moment of Alignment, I highlight a message from the late ACIM teacher, Kenneth Wapnick, in regard to how to approach our healing path. This is a message encouraging you to relax, trust and follow the way appointed to you knowing that your Higher Self is with you every step of your way. I hope this is helpful for you! Lots of Love, Fiona XO

Moment of Alignment 6 ~ Who are You Thinking With?
Hello Friends :) In this week's Moment of Alignment, I am highlighting a very helpful teaching from A Course in Miracles - a teaching which can help lessen your feelings of guilt and also amplify you feeling joy more often! Although the teaching I share is simplistic, it's something we don't tend to think about. Throughout His Course, Jesus reminds us that we suffer needlessly and He is also sure to pose the question of "Why delay your happiness?". Such statements are reminders that we don't need to default to ego-mode and that we can choose for Something better! Learn more about this simple AND practical teaching in this week's Moment of Alignment! Lots of Love, Fiona XO

41
Moment of Alignment 5 ~ The Course's Message of Easter
Hello Friends :) In this week's Moment of Alignment, I highlight the Course's message of Easter. We are reminded in the Course that Easter is a sign of peace and not pain. There are a couple of beautiful messages presented in this section of the Course (Chapter 20 in the text), which help remind us of why to choose for peace and how to do so. I hope you enjoy this Moment of Alignment and the empowering reminder we are given through the Course's message of Easter! Lots of Love, Fiona XO

Time for Forgiveness ~ Forgiving Grievances
Hello Friends :) In this episode, I am sharing a replay from a Time for Forgiveness meeting on grievances. This is a very important topic as it is through holding onto grievances that you hold yourself in a personal hell. In A Course in Miracles, we are taught that holding grievances is a sure way to amplify our experience of guilt, and so, if we want genuine inner peace then it is time to practice letting our grievances, whether they are old or new, go in peace. I hope you enjoy this replay and that it helps you turn your focus towards healing and ultimately towards the peace of God you deserve. Lots of Love, Fiona XO

Moment of Alignment 4 - Asking for Spiritual Help When You Aren't Ready to Forgive
Hello Friends! In this week's Moment of Alignment, I highlight a powerful and practical way to welcome Spiritual help even if you are not quite ready to forgive. True Forgiveness is our purpose here in this world but it is helpful to acknowledge the reality that we are not always ready to forgive. Feeling unready to forgive doesn't mean you aren't willing to seek help from Spirit though! As Course students, we learn too much about the ego that we can't fully go back to it, so we will tend to lean towards wanting a spiritual perspective of things even when we are struggling with forgiveness. And this willingness to at least welcome a spiritual perspective is what I share about in this Moment of Alignment! I hope it is helpful for you and that you enjoy! Lots of Love! Fiona XO
-
38
Moment of Alignment 3 ~ Inviting Inspiration
Hello Friends! In this week's Moment of Alignment, I highlight how to invite inspiration according to A Course in Miracles! In our world, there can be a lot of fear around what to do when change happens especially in regard to how we bring in an income. The ego would suggest you are limited and unable to diversify when change occurs. This is a massive falsehood as you, the loving Child of Source, are limitless and the flow of inspiration and Source's care for you is eternal. Inspiration is not only about how you fulfill your needs in this world, inspiration can also guide you to helpful remedies, healthy relationships and how to amplify joy in your life among so many other things! I hope you enjoy this week's Moment of Alignment which reminds you that inspiration is available to you always and how to welcome inspiration into your life! Lots of Love!! Fiona XO
-
37
Moment of Alignment 2 ~ Seeing Others Correctly
In this week's Moment of Alignment, the theme of accepting the True Identity is continued by focusing on seeing others correctly! The importance of acknowledging the Truth in others is vital to your inner peace and your remembrance of your Oneness in Source. You cannot know peace by holding onto thoughts of conflict about others AND you cannot remember God as long as you misidentify a Child of God as an ego. I share about this and more in this week's Moment of Alignment! I truly hope it is helpful for you and that you enjoy <3 Love, Fiona

Moment of Alignment 1 ~ Aligning With Your True Identity
Hello Friends! This is the introductory Moment of Alignment episode! At the beginning of each week, I will be posting a brief Right-Minded message to help remind you of powerful teachings from A Course in Miracles which can support you in your daily life.

Lifting Your Problems Up to Spirit
In this episode, I highlight a powerful teaching from A Course in Miracles in regard to the Holy Instant! The Holy Instant is a moment in time where you, the Decision Maker, relinquish thinking with the wrong mind of the ego and turn to the loving Right Mind of Spirit. In Chapter 15 of the text of the Course, there is a section on the Holy Instant which I highly recommend you review. It can help bring you relief and the further clarity that your release from the ego begins with your decision for the Holy Spirit, your loving Higher Self, over the ego. In this episode, I share about how the ego aims to keep us within its thought system by asking questions which lead to further questioning and inner conflict. And I also highlight what the Course says about how we can step off this ego cycle. I conclude this episode with a brief exercise on how to practice the Holy Instant so you can begin to feel the relief of releasing your perceived problems to the One Who loves you - your loving Higher Self. I truly hope this episode is helpful for you! Lots of Love!! Fiona

How to Heal Your Fear of Your Past Recurring
In this Connecting Mind & Spirit podcast episode, you will learn about how to heal from the fear of your past recurring and you will also learn about the harm of doubt in the spiritual healing process. Both fear of the past recurring and doubt in spiritual healing can limit the healing process and so I wanted to offer guidance from A Course in Miracles to help you forgive such fears instead of giving in to them. Let's remember that developing our trust in the Holy Spirit (our Higher Self) does require practice and patience. The information shared in this epsiode will hopefully help you calm and feel relief so it is easier to be patient and trust in the Holy Spirit's healing process. Please also enjoy the guided meditation concluding the episode which will help you to stay firm in your choice for the Holy Spirit's help. Lots of Love!! Fiona XOXO

Pathways to Receive Guidance & ACIM
Please enjoy a fun conversation I had with my dear friend and fellow ACIM student, Corinne Zupko! Corinne has just published her latest ebook called 'The Clairs for Course Students' which is about the senses we experience outside of our traditional five senses... and this is exactly what we talk about in this podcast episode! Corinne and I have a relaxed conversation about clairvoyance, claircognizance, clairaudience and clairsentience, where Corinne shares ACIM quotes which elude to these senses, and we also talk about our own personal experiences with the clair senses. Both Corinne and I feel that our experiences with 'the Clairs' speak to our formless nature and is also how the Holy Spirit, our loving Higher Self, gives us information. We all have intuition and it is important that we, as Course students, pay attention to our intuition as this is the way the Holy Spirit speaks to us. Our 'Clairs' are ways which can recognize the Holy Spirit's guidance and I truly hope this conversation both informs and inspires you! As promised in the episode, here is the link so you can download Corinne's ebook for FREE and so you can learn more about the complimentary training which goes along with her ebook ~ https://fromanxietytolove.com/clairs-for-course-students-access-page/ I want to extend a BIG thank you to Corinne for writing her book and for having this conversation with me. <3 Lots of Love!!

This is one of my most important podcast episodes loaded with helpful goodness! In this episode, I share how to take an ACIM Right-Minded approach to physical ailments and symptoms.

Healing Your Misperception of God
In this episode I share about a very important topic for your healing and ultimate enlightenment - healing your misperception of God. Throughout the text of A Course in Miracles, Jesus is sure to highlight that we presently misperceive our loving Source and project our unconscious guilt onto God. In so doing, we have polluted our own psyche and made God an enemy. Even if you don't feel this way consciously, your unconscious fear of God is something to be healed! Through our continued investment in ego thoughts, our awarenss of Who our Source really is has been clouded over. It is essential for our healing from the mistaken ego identity that we begin to release our current fear of God with the help of our loving Higher Self. In this episode, I will help you understand the harm of tolerating your misperception of God and I also share some practical tips on how you can begin to welcome a healthy remembrance of Who your Source really is. The guided meditation at the end of the episode will help you to reconnect with your Source and rest in Love. Enjoy the loving vibes! Fiona XO

I am Spirit
In this episode, I highlight the importance of acknowledging and accepting your True Identity as Spirit! I reference teachings from Lesson 97 - I am Spirit, and share a real world example of how this teaching helped me through one of my darkest times. The fact is, we are always either accepting or denying our True Identity. Denying our True Selves is why we see this world and the chaos and conflict which seems to occupy it. As is taught in the Course, all of your issues and the suffering you have experienced are because you have thought you are vulnerable, guilty and powerless body. This mistaken identity needs to change if you want to have genuine peace and remember your Oneness in Source. And so we want to focus on creating a loving habit of accepting our Spiritual Identity instead of rejecting it. I truly hope you enjoy this episode and the calming guided meditation at the end! Lots of Love, Fiona XO

Time for Forgiveness ~ First Meeting
Here is the recording for the first 'Time for Forgiveness' online gathering! In this first session I highlighted the foundations of True Forgiveness and contrasted it against the ego's version of "forgiveness". I also went through the True Forgiveness process outlined on page 90 of the Course's text, and then we took some time to apply the process together. There were great conversations and questions and I'm really excited to share this first recording with you. There is also some chat about how the 'Time for Forgiveness' meetings will occur moving forward which will be through my online community called the Awakening Community! Hosting the future meetings in the Awakening Community will make it easier for us to connect, ask and answer questions, and easily access the meeting recordings. I truly hope you enjoy this first session and soak up the good vibes from applying True Forgiveness! Lots of Love, Fiona XO

The Empowerment Episode
In this podcast episode, I will be speaking about reclaiming your power poistion in your daily life! The ego is always seeking to suggest that you are powerless even though it survives through the power of your mind! This is known as the ego paradox and it is something to be aware of so you can recognize that you are always in the power position as the decision maker and that you are always in control of HOW you think. In this episode, I share some ways the ego suggests you are a victim and I also talk about the temptation to blame others, the world and situations for your unhappiness and how doing so holds you in the position of thinking you are helpless.

A Necessary Step to Undo Fear
In this episode, you will learn a necessary step which leads to the undoing of fear in your mind! The correction of fear thoughts begins with your willingness to let them go. This willingness can look like being fed up with a certain fear thought, not wanting to repeat a past mistake, or your willingness can simply be based upon having faith that a fear thought actually CAN heal. Yet, there are always some fear thoughts which you may just not feel able to let go of. This podcast epsiode will specifically help ignite the willingness to forgive the fear thoughts which you have felt apprehensive about bringing to the light. What I share in this episode will hopefully give you the motivation and confidence to keep moving forward on your Right-Minded path! Enjoy! Lots of Love <3 Fiona

Christmas Series ~ Podcast 1: Accepting the Christ Within
To start off the 3-part Christmas podcast series, I'm delving into the helpful ACIM teaching which reminds us that we don't need to hold onto and maintain fear thoughts. This teaching is purposely reinforced in the Christmas section of the Course as it is through our release of ego thoughts that our True Identity as the Christ is revealed to us ~ a perfect Christmas teaching. To conclude the podcast, relax and enjoy the guided meditation where you will practice releasing your fears to the Holy Spirit and resting in the resulting peace. Love, Fiona
