As we move into the spring season in this part of the world, the Angels remind us that Mother Nature provides us with exactly what we need to support and nurture ourselves at any time of year. Right now, cleansing our systems of the excess mucus and weight that winter brought is key to being as healthy as possible for the rest of the year.
Things like berries, dandelion greens, and other naturally detoxifying foods are growing in abundance at this time. By eating more of these things, we clean ourselves from the inside out in a very ease-filled way.
Spring nudges us to clear out old, stagnant energy, and this year, there’s so much more to it. Yes, we're transitioning from winter to spring as we do every year, but we're also moving on from a very long metaphorical winter spread out over the course of a couple of years.
The world went internal, into hibernation. Now we're all tenderly returning new and changed as our systems adjust to this new way of being. Then, there’s also the added layer of having moved into the new paradigm.

The Angels want us to realize that as we're cleansing the thoughts, feelings, emotions, loss, fear, grief, and sadness that we've gathered over the past couple of years, we’re integrating all of these changes, as well.
So when we find ourselves wondering why we're feeling the depth of emotion that we are, or having a particularly difficult time navigating a task, or wondering why our physical bodies are manifesting certain symptoms, we need to remember this multifaceted cleansing effect.
This shift is happening even for those of us who are not in an area of the world that's transitioning to spring right now. We’ve released and integrated so much as we sorted through our lives examining what was truly important, and we will be embodying this knowledge in our lives as we move forward—personally at first, then globally.
We are now in a heart-centered paradigm, even if what you’re observing outside of you doesn’t seem to be reflective of this Truth. This global phenomenon is just like how energy comes up for clearing in the body, letting us know what’s still there, needing to be released or transmuted. It’s an invitation to process and heal that we each have the choice to accept or decline.
The Angels want us to know that they see our tendency to put the onus on ourselves, preferring to take care of any situation by working with the spiritual aspects first—even for something like a toothache. We tend to examine the spiritual significance and the emotions that are underlying it and work from the inside out. This is very important, and at the same time, they want us to realize that at this point it is really important to take care of ourselves on the physical level, as well.
Because we're so used to working from the inside outward, that we forget that the opposite is also true—we can work from the physical body inward. And right now our physical bodies are taking the lead in a lot of ways. We've done so much spiritual work and our physical body has needed to catch up. Now it’s asking for some attention, love, and nurturing in order to feel supported as it takes root in this new paradigm.
So, if your stomach is hurting, maybe give yourself some loving touch, massaging your belly the way you would for your child. If you have a toothache, go to the dentist to get it looked at, rinse your mouth, massage the area—all of the very physical things that we sometimes bypass.
When we do these things, we're telling our bodies, “I love you. I support you. I want you to be as healthy as possible. What do you need me to do? How can I be of service to you?”
Remember that the body houses our soul, and it's important that we take care of it. If we don’t take care of our car for 20 years, we're not going to get very far in that car!
Each and every cell in our bodies has consciousness. Each of them is a living, breathing organism, and in need of love and attention. This body is changing and adapting, consciously making choices to make our lives easier moment to moment. When we are in communication with the body, it can make more informed choices about what's actually needed, as opposed to randomly deciding based on reacting to a stimulus.
We’re still getting used to and finding solid footing in this new heart-centered paradigm. When we're not comfortable, it’s easy to look for distractions. Traditionally, we've gone out of body when there’s discomfort, but it's so easy now with all of the ways we're constantly “connected.” Our attention is a coveted commodity. It’s easy to get sucked into conversations we wouldn’t normally participate in simply because they’re in front of our eyes.
This is much different than making an active choice to get involved because it's important to us—something that will make the world a better place and be part of our service to the world.
When we place our energy, that precious limited resource, into something just because it's there, we're taking it away from something that matters more—from something we want to manifest in our lives.
Actively making choices about your time and attention protects the precious resource of your energy by keeping you off the hamster wheel of distraction. That's not to say we're going to be perfect. Realizing that it's very easy for us to find a distraction instead of sitting with the discomfort we might be feeling helps us to recognize and interrupt the pattern.
So, as you move through this transition in seasons, give yourself permission to feel all the things that are coming up for you—to release, to mourn, to be joy-full, or anything else. Don't judge yourself for what you're feeling or experiencing, and don't try to logic yourself out of it. Your experience doesn't need to correlate proportionately to what you’re feeling.
You're processing for yourself, and on behalf of the collective as well. There are so many layers to this particular transition—cleansing from annual winter to spring, from an extended energetic winter into spring, from the old paradigm to the new paradigm, from the old view and the things that you inherited to the new you and the active choices you'll be making. And it's about taking responsibility for the energy that you bring to the world as you take up your mantle as the wayshower that you chose to be in this lifetime.
Your angels want you to know how loved and supported you are with each breath that you take. In the moments where you feel like you just. can’t., simply breathe into exactly what you're feeling. Know that at that point where you find the stillness in the inhale and exhales, your Angels gather around you. They find you there and lend you their energy and support.
All it takes for us to be supported is to breathe, be present, and know beyond the shadow of a doubt that we are worthy of the love and the attention of these Divine Beings.
This is the simple shift in perspective to change what it is that we're experiencing at any time—just that pause to let them in.
You are loved beyond measure.
