CLEAR DISTRACTIONS FROM YOUR MIND
w/ Rheanni Lightwater
As you learned in the previous Tutorials, each Circle has a different healing action or medicine and are often used in sequence with positive affirmations to help you focus your intent. to support the positive changes that you’re asking for.
When the Circle are put together in different sequences, they can help us accomplish different mental and emotional tasks. In this case, let’s go through a short sequence where you will utilize your personal Power Animal to help you clear distractions and focus on your goals more effectively.
Access and Utilize Your Natural Creative Abilities.
Sometimes people are overstimulated or have learning difficulties that interfere with their ability to focus and productivity. Sometimes, a more creative and instinctual approach will help.
Use these positive affirmations with the Circles to access your intuition, gut instincts and the creative magic of Nature through #31 Dragonfly.
“I actively seek out the wisdom of my Animal Instincts and the Natural World.”
“I accept help from the generous, abundant resources of life
and listen to their promptings.”
“I connect to the natural
protective and creative abilities of my Psyche and Soul.”
“I allow my Power Animal to help me see this project from the perspective of my Higher Self.”
Are there any distractions pulling at you? If so, intend to withdraw from any harmful intentions, extremes or life trajectories that are harmful to you.
When you have a lot of noise or buzzing going on in your head, Mosquito Medicine can help you.
“I move the buzzing and excess noise from my head.”
Imagine that your mind just has too many windows open that allow random thoughts to come flying in. Another analogy is having too many tabs open on your computer. Piranha Medicine #8 will help you close them down. Use these positive affirmations to help:
“All holes are sealed and healed.”
“I follow the direction of healthy protection.”
Once the noise has subsided, let Paying Mantis help you refocus your attention on whatever your current task is.
“I am able to pull my energy and attention in and focus on what I’m doing.”
Do that both crossed and uncrossed so complete the correction in the best way possible.
Remember, as you breathe and visualize, the Circle is working with your Higher Self – helping you to shift and change in just the way that is best for you.
You are in charge of your attention, unless you’ve given that power away!
Remember all that you learned from Tutorial V? This is an excellent example of when and how old agreements could be interfering with your well being.
“I release all agreements to allow my mind to be distracted.”
“I let go of second guessing myself.”
“I reclaim my power and my attention.”
Wasp Medicine will help you pull your energy away from negative situations or even old memories of painful experiences.
“I pull myself and my energy out of negative spaces and experiences that are detrimental to me.”
The Wasp also reminds you to keep yourself protected. Do you have proper protection now? If not, what might help?
It is possible that you’ve been taking your project a little too seriously and the energy around it has gotten too heavy.
Gather yourself in your center with Otter Medicine and bring some fun and lightness into whatever you’re working on.
“I decide to bring a healthy sense of fun into what I’m doing.”
You might also have lost track of what the purpose for your original goal was. Garden can help you place it again. Use the Circle to remember what this activity has to do with your life and the personal dream you hold for yourself.
“The purpose of this activity is to ______________.”
Be sure that your agreements confirm who is in charge of what you’re doing and how you get it done.
“My Soul is in charge of how my energy is used –
even when I’m distracted by ____________.”
Butterfly Medicine can help you remember to tap into the most positive energies available to you, no matter where you are.
“I relax and use the most beneficial energies possible to manifest this project.”
Now that you have the proper focus, position, agreements, purpose and energy, let Starlight Medicine help you put it all together. What is the next best step for you to take to help you with your project?
Congratulations! You’ve just pulled yourself back from the dangers of a distracted mind. Get up and move around a bit to help this settle and get integrated.
Next Time:
In the Seventh Tutorial, you’ll get an opportunity to experience how Gifts from the Rainforest can help you take aim at the concept of reciprocity.

Future pacing is an extra-intuitive activity that isn’t required, but can really help you excel by anchoring positive outcomes into your Learning Mind…
In our hypnotherapy and energy medicine classes, we talk about the importance of future pacing. What is that?
Future pacing is a way to deepen the effects of any mind body healing by projecting a preferred outcome into the future. Let’s use that idea to solidify what you’ve just learned in your previous mind exercise.
Start Future Pacing by Getting Calm and Relaxed
Use River Medicine to relax and adjust the volume on your senses.
Remember that when your senses are out of balance, it’s easy to get lost and fall out of your natural flow.
River Medicine beckons us to calm down and flow with the river of life. When we allow this experience, we can hear the truth of the heart and Soul more clearly.
One way to do that is to gaze softly at the Circle and imagine that you’re floating on a calm, benevolent body of water. Take the time to breathe deeply. Once you feel calmer, you’re ready to open your senses to new solutions and gifts.
Gently remind yourself about your objective: “What am I proposing to do?”
Then, follow up with, “If I follow the course of that action, what’s most likely to happen?”
Once you feel more relaxed and calm, use this sequence of Intuitive Learning Circles and positive affirmations to help you future pace withthe very best qualities to follow through on what you’ve learned.
Future Pacing from The Learning Mind
RECALIBRATION
“I release harmful ingredients and access beneficial ingredients.”
If you need to use the symbols and positive affirmations from The Essential Human to help you accessthe very best qualities to nurture your intuitive talents, this is a good time to do it.
Choose from numbers 1 – 42 with the same affirmation:
“I release harmful ingredients and access beneficial ingredients.”
Here are a couple of examples of how you might do that. The first line is about what you want to let go of or close the door on: “I release harmful or extreme thinking patterns.”
The second line is about what you want to open up to: “I now make a commitment to cultivate prosperous thoughts from my Soul.”
“I let go of past resentments and grievances.”
“I now hold hope in my heart to heal me in the present.”
Set Yourself Up for Success
Imagine that you can access your seeds of karma that will help you actualize your objective. Gather all the seeds of your good deeds in the center, blank area of this Circle.
“I access my beneficial karma for actualizing balanced and helpful _________.”
“I plant new karmic seeds for the conditions I need to be happier, healthier and to actualize my heartfelt objectives.”
Make sure you plant them in your personal garden that lives in your heart.
“I plant beneficial seeds in my garden and ask for blessings in accordance with the highest good. I am securely included in the equation.”
Clear Obstructions
Let go of any harmful or inappropriate energies or mental/emotional patterns that no longer serve you. Release them to the Light to be set free and purified.
“I gather destructive patterns or energies and release them to the Light. I dissolve my connection to them, so that they may be set free and purified.”
Please note: Never send pain or harmful energies into the Earth to be neutralized, she already has too much to handle now. Use the Earth for planting seeds of life, health and happiness – not death, illness and unhappiness!
Visualize any hidden channels or sewage pipes for negative energies collapsing in on themselves.
“Old channels of ______________ are collapsing.”
Close all holes or leaks that lead back to illness or suffering.
“All holes are sealed and healed.” “I follow the direction of my Soul’s protection.”
Empowerment
Now you’re ready for your Soul to connect you with the grail of gratitude located in your personal garden and use it to empower your highest good.
“I use my Soul’s divine connection to nourish what’s in my highest good.”
“I am empowered to learn how I can strengthen ________ and _________.”
Grounding
Being grounded helps you bring what you’ve learned “down to Earth” so you can increase productivity and actualize your objective. Let’s get grounded in the New Paradigm before we complete this Mind Exercise.
Place both feet on the floor and put your hands on your knees if you can. Gaze softly at the Circle and repeat the affirmation until you feel your body has fully settled in the present.
“I am present and grounded in the New Paradigm.”
Future Pacing
Now you’re ready to tune into the Center of your being. Go within and ask your heart: How will it feel to actualize my objective in the future?
What about later today or tomorrow?
A month from now?
How does it feel a year from now?
Completion
The mind intuitively appreciates closure. Finish it all up now by sealing and healing any holes that lead back to old, harmful pathways of suffering.
“All holes are sealed and healed.” “I follow the direction of my Soul’s protection.”
Congratulations!
You can thank yourself for taking the time today to learn how Future Pacing can accelerate your learning and ability to manifest your objective in the New Paradigm – a gift that will surely keep on giving!
Be sure to rest now and do something nice for yourself!

What Process Is Best for Me – Right Now?
Many of you have asked, “There’s so many Games and Exercises here in the Intuitive Learning Circle – how do I know which one is right for me?
Since we’re here to help you develop your intuition, it’s only natural that we would come up with a simple & fun way to decide – using your intuition!
First of all, it’s true that we have quite a few self-healing offerings, so below you’ll find a list of games that pertain to Developing Determination through the Jaguar.
Jaguar Medicine
There are 5 categories to choose from ~
I: Cosmos II: Family III: Environment IV: Livelihood and V: Self
Each category has a selection of games listed underneath which are numbered 1, 2 and 3.
The first step is to take a moment and think about what’s going on for you and then look at Jaguar Medicine and ask your heart:
“What category would be most useful for me to look at now?”
Once you have the category number, ask yourself: “Which number in that category represents the best self healing process for me right now – or is the best place to start?”
Remember to take the very first number that comes to you, because that is your Inner Wisdom speaking or your intuition. If more than one number comes up, write them all down in the order they came to you.
Once you have your number, scroll down the list and check out that process. You might be surprised at what you chose, because intuition doesn’t always makes sense at first. However, I suggest that you trust your first response and explore the exercise anyway. See if it pertains to your situation and feels right.
This is the intuitive way to determine which exercise is best for you right now!
Suggestion: Early on in your journey with Jaguar, go through Open Your Heart and Make Friends to develop a truly co-operative relationship!

In Gifts from the Rainforest, she shares wisdom from the many plant, animal and nature spirits that they encountered through the Intuitive Learning Circles and their messages.

The appropriate medical or psychotherapeutic authorities should be consulted for the diagnosis and treatment if there is any medical or psychological condition. The information and practices described on this website are best considered as an adjunct to orthodox medical or psychological treatments.
In this intuitive reading, Soul Resources offers a variety of SOS formulas and Transformation Games using the Intuitive Learning Circles and the I Ching to help us navigate contradiction and get on the path to a better world based on the Common Good.
The I Ching
The original intent of the I Ching was based on an Eastern philosophy of observation and marking changes in natural and human events. Through many centuries and contributions from shamans and master teachers, including Lau Tzu and Confucius, the Book of Change was developed into a full philosophy for applying beneficial human conduct to varying circumstances. The Art of Feng Shui is part of that philosophy.
Understanding the Larger Picture ~
When a roller coaster is being flung this way and that, it’s natural to cling onto something that you think will stabilize you. However, if you’re grabbing for something that is no longer there, you’re actually making your situation worse, whether you’re aware of the mistake or not. It may seem, in your mind, that because things used to work a certain way in the past, you’ll be safer to return there and that encourages you to grip on how things used to be even harder. This is a classic survival response and completely understandable.
You may feel safer for a moment, yet if you make the mistake of giving over the weight of your body to a construct that is going through its death throws, the CONTRADICTION you face will be exponentially greater.
This is the reason why Kuan Yin encourages us to stay in the I Ching Flow of MODERATION whenever things are in a state of CONTRADICTION.
“The ancient Chinese text describes finding MODERATION as the best way to make progress amidst chaos. The suggestion is to disengage from conflicts, extremes or opinionated attitudes and follow the guidance that comes from within instead. In almost any situation, if you are able to walk the middle road between extremes, there will be improvement in whatever you undertake.”
If you can pull back and come from a place of MODERATION, you might be able to look at your situation from a more objective perspective and find a way to pull yourself out of a very dangerous position.
The CONTRADICTIONS in your communications are an extreme example of how quickly people are becoming aware that clinging to the way things used to be creates stalemates and extreme instability. Social structures are falling apart, tangled and filled with outages, glitches, hijacking of information – these are all signs of the general CONTRADICTION that the old structures are going through.
The I Ching: Navigate CONTRADICTION.
To navigate the CONTRADICTIONS ahead effectively will demand extraordinary will power, determination and a strong vision for what you hope to accomplish.
“There is a strong sense of CONTRADICTION at work in the current situation. It may be a matter of opposing viewpoints — persons who are working at cross purposes to one another or an inner duality that brings indecision. You must now gain an understanding of these divergent forces and better accord yourself with the times. Great achievements are out of the question, since they cannot come about without complete co-operation and alignment. Only small endeavors and gradual influences will meet with good fortune.
There now exists an atmosphere for misunderstandings or estrangement between men and women. Their inherent polarity is at its peak as they retreat into their own individual natures. Bridging the gap that is now present is a profound moment for significant union… Use small, gentle influences now to bring about this mutual accord.
This is a time when you may meet with the dualism in your own nature. You may appear indecisive or equivocal to others as you weigh contradicting viewpoints. Never before have you been able to see both sides so clearly. Arbitrary predispositions such as patriotism, clannishness, fixed ideas of principle or class prejudice may become less important in your life as you begin to see things in the larger overview. The struggle between good and evil, life and death, and all such opposites may appear to be simply the natural interaction of the great forces in the universe, as you develop the perspective of the sage. This sense of oneness or wholeness in a world of CONTRADICTION can bring you great depth of character and peace of mind.”
~ Hexagram #38 CONTRADICTION, The I Ching Workbook, R.L. Wing
The Chinese Zodiac–
The Year of the Yin Water Rabbit officially started on January 22nd, 2023.
The beneficial qualities of the Rabbit are said to be: Docile. Fertile. Tender. Quiet. Gentle. Cautious. Considerate. Her fertility and connection with women’s health is legendary, although whether you consider that beneficial or not is entirely up to you!
Her more challenging qualities are liable to be: Irresolute. Skittish. Stubborn. Timid. Escapist. Plus, the rabbit is considered by many to be a trickster, although her tricks can be viewed as warnings about how we may be tricking ourselves.
With these generalities in mind, what do you gather you need to do differently to prepare for and work with this energy? What is the message from this Archetypal Animal? Are there any warnings? Opportunities?
Is there something specific I could ask about that would be beneficial?
What would you need to do to make friends with her?
As as always, Kuan Yin has offered her help and assistance through a specially chosen collection of Transformation Games, Mind Exercises and Self-care Formulas. This year, she is advising us move through the CONTRADICTIONS with special cooperative arrangements with Plant and Animal Totems from Gifts from the Rainforest. She says, ” “It is much easier to do the right thing when you are in good company. Following good examples with lead you to success.”
Gaze softly at the SOS symbol and ask for a number between 1 – 9.
Scroll down to that number and check out what that process has to offer you.
It’s not easy to make as many changes as we have over the past few years. However, knowing when and how to shed your skin and change with the changes rather than fighting against them, will make a huge difference in how the next stage of your life will go.
Refocus your attention on solutions rather than problems by consciously pulling your attention and energy away from the problems and redirecting them to genuinely helpful solutions that connect you with your Soul.
Your nervous system and your ability to communicate are intricately interrelated. Use this Game to de-escalate emotional reactions, especially if you’re highly sensitive. Gently collect information about your nervous system and what will help to calm you down.
Make the decision to consciously pull your attention and energy away from all those problems and redirect them to genuinely helpful solutions that connect you with your Soul.
Recent changes in the energy are causing you to feel disoriented, discombobulated and unusually confused, right at a time when you really need to keep it together. The amount of change is affecting your mental clarity, ability to sleep well and now you’re forgetting things.
Set things right again with the Plant Spirits Guide.
Self-discipline Will Help Us Navigate CONTRADICTION ~
“Because of a general atmosphere of CONTRADICTION and opposition you may fail to recognize someone who can sincerely help you. This person may reveal himself in spite of the mistrust that clouds your perspective. Working together on current plans will now bring good fortune.” ~ Fifth Changing Line, CONTRADICTION, The I Ching Workbook by R. L. Wing
SOS Self-care Formulas and Mind Exercises can help you navigate change and stay in balance:

There is an increased amount of static and electro-magnetic incoherence in our environment which can cause a variety of mysterious symptoms, especially for highly sensitive people.
This exercise was developed several years ago to help keep the chakra system organized and cleared of toxins. Kuan Yin is recommending it at this time to keep unwanted energies from attaching to you and pulling you further into conflicting energies.

When In Search of the Truth: Clear Your Crown Chakra ~
It can be hard to keep your mind clear when lies are everywhere. The sheer amount of them can make your head spin and have you doubt your sanity! Luckily, there are ways to detach from the crazy-making and get centered again. This Mind Exercise has been put together to be one of those ways. Simply go through this step by step process and you will be guided to clear your Crown Chakra and strengthen your Soul connection.
Directions: Find a quiet place if possible, where you won’t be disturbed for 20 – 30 minutes. Begin by reading the information and then gazing gently at each Circle that goes with it for approximately two minutes. A longer or shorter time may be necessary. Let yourself breathe and relax as much as possible. Don’t worry if the images move around or change in any way. That just means the Circles are working and that your mind and body are coming into balance.
Some emotions might come up as well. That also means the Circles are working. If you’re being hard on yourself or afraid you aren’t “doing it right,” give yourself permission to continue relaxing. You could very well be releasing confusion that’s caused you quite a bit of suffering for some time now. Resolve to patiently keep breathing and let it go.
A Series of Divine Connections
The Seventh or Crown Chakra is an energy center that, among many other things, helps us to process self actualization needs like realizing personal potential, self-fulfillment and seeking personal growth or peak experiences. When the Crown Chakra is blocked, it’s easy to get confused and misled by false information.
Use this Reiki Chakra Key to tap into your Crown Chakra at the top of your head. Relax for a minute or two. Does it feel balanced and open? If not, how would you describe it? Clogged? Blocked? Shut down? Disconnected?
Crown Chakra Key
If you are a Reiki Practitioner, this is a good time to beam Reiki into the Circle.
If you’re not a Reiki Practitioner, simply make the commitment to use natural healing energies that work with Mother Nature, rather than against her or trying to dominate her!
Clearing your Crown Chakra naturally when it’s blocked is one of the most important energetic interventions you can employ to maintain a free and open mind.
Why do I say that?
Because, when the Seventh Chakra is blocked by false imprints and entanglements, a domino effect is created that impairs the Sixth Chakra, also known as “The Third Eye.”
The Third Eye is located in the center of the forehead between the eyebrows and governs our need for spiritual insight and understanding, among many other things. When it’s open and clear, a person can properly “see” and utilize their own intuition and common sense.
Third Eye Chakra Key
If those important mental functions get thrown off, the person becomes more susceptible to delusions and fantasy thinking that emanate from groupthink and herd mentality.
They begin to doubt themselves, become cynical and rely on the opinions of others. This loss of personal power creates a stage that’s set perfectly for conspiracies and cults to come in and take over.
Take a moment and use this Reiki Chakra Key to tap into your Third Eye. How does it feel? Clogged? Cluttered? Chaotic? Confusing?
If you’re experiencing any blockages, it may help to meditate on this sequence that helps connect a person’s Crown Chakra to their Soul Chakra:
The goal is to connect your Crown Chakra to your Soul Chakra located directly above it.
Crown Chakra – Located at Top of Your Head
Soul Star Connection
Soul Chakra – Located Just Above Your Head
It may help to scroll back and forth through the sequence several times to establish a strong connection…
Being able clear your Crown Chakra and maintain it requires clear agreements from you to connect directly with your own Soul and Divine Connection – rather than going through someone else’s.
An example of this would be in religious organizations. Many spiritual institutions or philosophies from the old paradigm have taught that we have to go through the priest, guru or spiritual leader to find a connection to the Divine. This is no longer true in the New Paradigm. We each have our own connection. We just need to know how to make that connection and keep it.
Direct Connection to Spiritual Guidance
You may say, “I don’t need to connect with my Divinity through another person or group!” And yet, human beings have been trained for millennia to do exactly that. The conditioning to hand over our personal authority is deeply ingrained and maintained on an unconscious level. Even when we rebel against it, we’re still reacting out of that conditioning. We can’t just snap our fingers and dismiss all that cultural training.
Ask yourself, are you experiencing a direct and clear connection to your spiritual guidance?
A New Way to Relate To Ourselves and Others ~
Think about the contracts or agreements you hold around authority and self-determination: the people, the places and the organizations that have been important to you throughout your life. They could be affecting you in a negative way now.
Is there anyone trying to control me? Am I unknowingly interfering with someone else?
Those agreements may not be over, but they have certainly changed! For example, you could still want to care about a significant person or group, but that doesn’t mean that you want to let them control you or interfere with your thoughts.
Then there are those people who you don’t want to care about, and yet they are always trying to get into your head…
Mind control… brainwashing… herd mentality… it’s enough to drive you crazy! But it doesn’t have to…
Give yourself permission to have healthy boundaries.
Free up your energy with the Circle below by letting go of old, out-dated agreements about control, authority and self-determination.
Release sub-conscious agreements to put up with control and manipulation. See completed debts, vows and resentments burn up like old contracts in a beautiful, violet flame.
“I let go of all Soul Agreements that are harmful or interfere with healthy boundaries or clear spiritual guidance. I don’t need to go through others to connect with my Divinity. I let go of interference with others. I allow the necessary changes to take place.”
You may want to release harmful connections with a project, a belief system, a person or an organization that’s no longer serving your needs. They may have even become abusive. Rather than wasting your energy on trying to get revenge, release them by surrendering those Soul Contracts into the fire. Affirm your own authority and ability to say “no.”
Take all the time you need to relax deeply with this one:
“I let go of harmful thoughts and belief systems that interfere with direct communication and connection to my heart, mind and Soul.
Free your mind and spirit from the agreement of having to organize around the patriarchal imprint of control, greed, hatred, prejudice and fear.
“I choose to create Common Ground through cooperation, equality and sustainable prosperity instead.”
Decide to connect through the energies of Joy and Gratitude, rather than Greed and Revenge.
When your chakras can source from a positive life force, Divine Connection is possible and preferable.
“I decide to connect through Joy, rather than fear or hatred.”
Reclaim Your Personal Power ~
“I am free to choose a direct and divine connection to my Soul.”
Release Attachments ~
Because of the sheer amount of information and interference we encounter everyday, we need to address the possibility that various aspects of our subtle energy field may be damaged or struggling with attachments.
Use this Key to relax and meditate on for as long as you like. Like a healing balm, imagine that a loving coat of peace and comfort is pouring down over you.
“My energy system can easily and effectively neutralize interfering energies and detach from them.”
Correct Reversals and Blockages ~
When we’re under extreme stress, it’s not uncommon for the chakras and/or meridians to start running in reverse or shut down entirely. Relax and let this symbol help you make corrections to problems including deformations, reversals and misdirections.
“I repair any glitches, holes or blockages in my energy system.”
Take all the time you need with this.
Connect the Hara Lines ~
Whenever working with chakras, you may need to repair and/or strengthen hara lines for improved communication and healing.
The hara lines are like tiny webs of light that connect the chakras throughout your body. Sometimes they’re broken or damaged because of trauma, illness, toxicity or sudden changes in the sympathetic nervous system (fight or flight).
This Circle gives extra energy to the hara lines that surround and connect with your Crown Chakra.
“I repair and strengthen my hara lines.” “My chakras are connected properly to my Soul through a golden web of light.”
This Circle also helps us navigate where we are and to organize our consciousness around being present.
“I am present inside of my body. Everyone else is outside.”
Adapt to the Generative Life Energies Available in the New Paradigm ~
It helps to know that you can close down many harmful energies left over from the old paradigm that may be running rampant through your body, mind and space.
“I have protection.” “I close down all harmful energy channels.”
Once they’re closed, you’ll find that your chakra centers are more open and receptive to the generative life force (chi) that is available in the New Paradigm. You can “install” this symbol like an adaptive filter for you to function better with the lighter, quicker energy of Air.
“My mind is open and clear to receive generative life force.”
Let Go of Any Remaining Ties That Connect You To Abuse~
“I let go of those bridges that lead me back to trauma, control or abuse.”
Dissolve Destructive Blueprints That May Have Come Up ~
Take your time and visualize them dissolving like dark clouds into the pure, light of the Sun.
Please note: Never send destructive energies into the Earth, she already has too much to handle now. Use the Earth for planting seeds of happiness and life – not death!
Check Back Into Your Connection to Spiritual Guidance Again ~
How are you experiencing your spiritual guidance now? Is it more direct? Is there anything you would change or improve on it?
Repair and Refocus Your Auras ~
At the end of this kind of process, it’s important to make sure that any holes or tears in your auras are repaired and refocused, especially when there are so many chaotic toxins floating around!
“My auras are sealed, repaired and refocused.” “The healing protection for my body strengthened.”
Finish By Grounding the Benefits ~
Take a moment and get grounded so that you can actualize this new connection with your Crown Chakra.
Congratulations!

Especially when the stakes are high, you need to remember the important things. However, people often times have memory problems when they’re under a lot of emotional stress, especially if they’re highly sensitive. Why is that and what can be done to help?
If this sounds like you, you are probably overwhelmed by the uncertainty and ungrounded by the sheer amount of information that you feel you have to process. You might be having experiences like the ones below.
Processing difficult news
Feeling weak or mentally exhausted
Disoriented due to grief or sudden loss
Picking up on other peoples pain
Noticing an increase in forgetfulness
Getting confused more easily than usual
If you are, you’re not alone and you can easily get some relief by going through the Emotional Stress that Affects Memory Exercise out of our Soul Oriented Solutions series.
Directions: Start by confirming that this is the best formula for you with the SOS Symbol.
SOS Symbol
Next, go through this short mind exercise to understand how emotional stress might be causing memory lapses in your case and what you can do to help yourself. Read each step and then gaze softly at its Circle, one at a time.
Give yourself permission to look at the Circles in any way or from any angle that you like. All you have to do is stay relaxed. If you’re drawn to focus on the center of a Circle, great!
If you come up with a message, an image or instinctively want to trace over the lines, let your imagination guide you. A playful approach reduces stress and opens up possibilities so you can look at your situation from different perspectives.
Developing intuition in this way enhances your personal growth and can keep those creative juices flowing for better mind function.
Caution: the use of this exercise is not intended take the place of appropriate medical and/or psychiatric care. If you are having prolonged or increasing bouts of memory loss, seek the appropriate medical help.

For best results, look at each symbol both crossed over the midline of your body and uncrossed so that the correction is more complete.
Feel free to move at anytime in any way to help you embody your experience!
Stress That Affects Memory ~
How Are You Experiencing Disorientation?
1. We’re going to look at several possible reasons why emotional stress might be affecting your memory. One reason could be that you are disoriented due to a sudden recent change. You might also be picking up on other people’s stress. Another possibility could be that your mind has been exposed to an overwhelming amount of information. It helps to be aware of what is involved.
Let this Circle help you gather up any important information involved. Your unconscious mind knows what’s pertinent and what’s not.
You might want to jot down any impressions you notice.However, don’t be surprised if nothing definite comes to you. There may not be any words because the unconscious mind is not linear.
Just make note of what your experience is for now.
What is a Clear Intention That will Help?
2. To help bring your mind into focus, establish a simple and clear intention for this exercise.
“I improve mental acuity and brain function.”
Go ahead and meditate on the center open space of this chart with that intention in mind.Breathe deeply and relax. Don’t try to make anything happen.A relaxed mind will lead you to a more relaxed body!
When the energy of the chart slows down, you’re ready to move onto the next step.
What Would You Like to Shine Light On?
3. The pineal gland is an important part of your brain because of its main function of regulating light and darkness through its production and secretion of melatonin. In addition, the pineal contains light-sensitive cells that control your equilibrium through the circadian cycle of sleep and wakefulness.
Melatonin also supports healthy memory function and reproductive cycles.
Relax and breathe for a minute or two and let this Chakra Key help you clear toxins from your pineal gland so that your natural rhythms and cycles can come into better balance.
How Would You Like to Feel?
4. The hypothalamus is a part of your brain that regulates homeostasis. Through it, you have the ability to maintain inner balance and a calm state of mind. It also regulates a variety of functions including your physical development, digestive health and metabolism.
Allow this Chakra Key to help you clear and balance your hypothalamus.
What Would You Like to Remember?
5. The hippocampus is actually two structures located on either side of the temporal lobe that are involved with memory development, verbal, spacial and directional skills.
Repeat what you just did in the previous steps. Relax and breathe while you gaze at this Chakra Key to clear out toxins and bring both areas of your hippocampus into balance.
Once you’ve really relaxed with it, check in with a question:
“Is there something I’ve forgotten that’s important? More than one?”
Make a note of it and continue with your mind exercise.
What Would Bring You More Ease?
6. There’s another part of your brain function that taps into the wisdom of your Soul. Some call it the Third Eye Chakra. Through it, the pineal, hippocampus and hypothalamus can connect and work together to enhance learning and create coherent thoughts. Intuition and common sense can then blossom and communicate meaningful insights to your Heart Center.
Keep relaxed and gaze softly at the Circle with each affirmation:
“My common sense and intuition are working together.”
“I receive meaningful insights about my situation.”
“My mind helps me to reduce stress and integrate joy into my life.”
What Needs to Get Connected?
7. Keep relaxed and gaze softly at the Circle with each affirmation:
“My mind is connected and balanced to create improved mental acuity and brain function.”
“I improve my comprehension and understanding.”
“I connect with solutions.”
What Would Support You?
8. It’s possible that you’re dehydrated or not getting the right nutrition. While you gently focus on this Circle, ask yourself:
“Is there something I could eat or drink that would help me?”
“Is there something I’m eating or drinking too much of?”
Is There Something That You Need To Let Go Of?
9. If there is, let this Circle help you open up and let it go.
Just keep letting go and release all that emotional stress. See yourself relaxing under an afternoon Sun. Take all the time you like. It’s okay to let go and rest.
What Would Help Your Emotional Stress?
10. Is there something that you could do to help your mental emotional stress?
Is there something it would be best to stop doing?
Use this Circle to consider actions you could take that would help in this situation. Make sure they would be genuinely helpful to you now.
Is there anything you could do or stop doing that would be genuinely helpful to others?
What Is Your heart Saying?
11. It could be that things are just moving too fast and your mind is trying to keep up. Take a moment to slow down and tune into your Heart Center.Ask yourself:
“What is my heart telling me?”
“Am I worried about something (physical, financial, family issue, etc)?”
“What have I been doing? Has that helped?”
“What do I feel?”
How Will Life Be Better Without This Emotional Stress?
12. Your physical body is the foundation for your vitality and your instinct to take care of yourself. Clearing energy, especially in your lower body, will give you strength and support to make necessary changes. Put both feet on the floor to help you ground. Take whatever time you need.
Once you feel stronger, ask yourself:
“What, if anything, am I forgetting about my physical health?
“Is there something I need to remember?”
There’s always more than one way to do things, what new way comes to mind in this case?
What Would Keep You Grounded?
13. A strong connection to the Earth gives you support to make the necessary changes and stay balanced at the same time. Put both feet on the floor to help you ground.
If needed, go back to Step 7 and connect with your other chakras.
Take whatever time you need.
“What do I need to remember?”
“Do I need to change anything?”
“Do I have the connections and resources I need to resolve this stress?”
“What would be involved? Is anything missing?”
Ask For Blessings On Your Life Path.
14. Finish by balancing out your Life Path Chakras. They help you stay on your own path and tune into the promptings of your Soul – a very important thing to remember!
“I open up to my potential and stay positive.”
“I stay true to my Souls path.”
You may want to sit with this for quite a while.
Plan to take a walk or relax for a bit out in Nature once you feel ready.
Releasing emotional stress takes time and space!

How to Change Negative Thoughts In the New Paradigm ~
Are you stuck in the past? At any point during a typical day, you may need to release a negative thought, compulsion or worry that you’ve held onto that no longer serves you.
You can gently let go and adapt to some better behavior by starting with a short quiz using the Intuitive Learning Circles.
Part I: What is Going On?
Are You Being Bothered By Worry or Negative Thoughts?
As you gaze at the Circle below, go ahead and deliberately find a problem that you’re stuck on and don’t know how to change.
“I find the negative thoughts about ____________ and free myself of them.”
“My new intention is to aim for balance, health, happiness and ____________.”
Notice how sticky this is and how much energy is involved in the struggle!
Mind Body Integration
For best results, look at each symbol both crossed over the midline of the body and uncrossed so that the correction is more complete.
What Else Is Going on?
Other things might be happening. Sometimes there’s a karmic entanglement with other people, groups or power structures. Are you involved in a situation where you need to separate yourself out from controlling or harmful manipulations? If so, use this affirmation:
“I release and let go of harmful entanglements.”
Is Your Health or Prosperity Being Affected Negatively?
Are you being distracted? Have you placed your hopes in a losing proposition? Are you stubbornly holding onto ideas, structures or systems that are actually blocking you? Are you trying to do too many things? If you are, ask your heart:
“What can be done about it?”
Are There Any Other Dangers That You Ought to be Aware Of?
There are always those who would love to take advantage of our blind spots. You could be stuck because you are being exploited in some way. Your energy might be getting drained. A person or group could be trying to cling to you, dump their problems or just interfere with your plans. The easiest ways for them to succeed is either by seducing you with flattery or trying to get you mad through insults and intimidation. Don’t buy into these ploys!
“I identify danger and determine how to deal with it effectively.”
Part II: How Can You Help Yourself?
Now that you have a better idea about what’s going on, you can gently let go and adapt to some more effective ways to handle your situation. If you’d like to do that, continue with this simple Mind Exercise using the Intuitive Learning Circles.
When You’re Stuck in the Past, Change Your Agreements.
Imagine you can gently untie those agreements or burn them in a cleansing fire.
“I decide to let go of worry or negative thoughts about _________ (patiently take it one subject at a time).”
“I stop buying into controlling or fearful manipulations.”
“I let go of ___________ and behaviors that threaten to entangle me with ________. I stop buying into flattery, distractions, lies and ___________.”
Getting Unstuck From the Past ~
The old paradigm or Piscean Age that we’ve recently left was governed by the element of Water. The flow of Water goes down and follows the path of least resistance. When it accumulates, it can easily get stuck and stagnate.The flow of Air is lighter, quicker and can easily be moved in all directions. It does not require nearly as much force.
The way things worked then will not work in the new energy that is governed by Air (Aquarius). Releasing any agreements to process emotions in the old way will be very helpful:
“I am flexible and adapt to the changing energy flows.”
“I adjust to the lighter, quicker, generative flow of Air.”
“I stop processing emotions through the downward channels of the Piscean Age.” “I let go of the heaviness and stagnation.”
Connect with a Template of Common Ground in the Land, Rather than the Status Quo:
Mother Earth is changing and it will help to connect with her natural imprint so that we can change how we’re relating to her and to each other.
“I decide to let go of old imprints of exploitation and integrate with the imprint of creating Common Good on Common Ground.”
“I stop dumping my emotional poison into the Earth.” “I choose to be responsible and connect with the Land in positive, productive ways.” “I work with the Earth to create Common Good.”
Release Your Agreements to Use STAGNANT YIN ENERGY:
Unfortunately, many people are using toxic and stagnant water energy to process how they are feeling. This “stuck” energy relates to current social tendencies such as apathy, resistance, self-pity, co-dependence and laziness. You would be wise to release your agreements to utilize this very stagnant energy flow:
“I let go of old, heavy, stagnant or destructive flows of Water.”
Utilize Pure Water to Process and Clear Emotions.
Instead, make a conscious choice to activate a new relationship with the Element of Water – fresh and purified to gently clear emotions, imbalances and the residual effects of past indifference and abuse.
This affirmation will help you make an actual adjustment in how you relate to and utilize this precious resource:
“I now make a conscious decision to use pure, life affirming Water to process my emotions and create vibrant health.”
Come From A Place of Joy and Gratitude Rather than Fear and Revenge:
Worry generally comes from a negative place. You can source from a different place that connects you in with your Soul.
“I decide to source my responses from a place of Joy and Gratitude rather than fear, greed or vengeance.”
Ask for Help from Your Soul.
Manifesting effectively under this new influence of Air will require many new skills that only a true connection with our Divine Nature will be able to help us with.
“I ask my Soul for help, especially in regards to ___________.”
“I connect with the clear electro-magnetic signature of my Soul.” “I erase signatures & interferences that block integrity, like old graffiti markings. I release them to the Light.”
Gather Up Your Senses to Function in Alignment with Your Soul.
Be sure you’re using your senses to correctly assess what’s really going on and the changes you’re going to need to adjust to. Begin by relaxing with this Reiki Chakra Key for a minute or so to connect with your senses and Rational Thought Chakras. They are essential to help you accurately determine what spiritual or physical shifts are necessary and what would be effective.
“I gather up all of my senses and use them to get present and perceive my concerns clearly.”
“I use them to shed light on my blind spots.” “I use them to discern the difference between helpful and harmful energies.” I use my senses to find genuinely helpful solutions.”
If you sense that you’re dealing with some hateful energies, you may want to go to Resources for Healing Hate>
Part III: Recalibrate Your Energy
Toxic Attachments May Keep You Stuck in the Past ~
Various parts of your energy field may be damaged or struggling with negative energies like smoke, chemicals, illness or other attachments that inhibit your health. Use this Key to relax and meditate on for as long as you like. Like a healing balm, imagine that a loving coat of peace and comfort is pouring down over you.
“My energy system can easily and effectively neutralize interfering energies and detach from them.”
Correct Reversals and Blockages ~
When we’re under extreme stress, it’s not uncommon for the chakras and/or meridians to start running in reverse or shut down entirely. Relax and let this symbol help you make corrections.
“I repair any reversals, holes or blockages affecting my energy or mindset.”
Take all the time you need to let your energy smooth out.
Calm Your Nervous System ~
The same could be happening in your nervous system. Use this Soul Prayer Chart to help you smooth out discordant energies that exacerbate your anxiety and stress. Gently detach from the rhythms of survival, pushing, struggling, fear and completion. Tune into the rhythm and calm of your parasympathetic nervous system.
“I come into harmony with the rhythm of my Soul.”
To access that place of peace it can be helpful for you to breathe, hum or gently rock yourself back and forth.
Clear Shadow Energies with an Infusion of Divine Light ~
Radiate light throughout your auric bodies with the full power of the Divine and Angelic Realms. Keep your attention on the strength and beauty of the light rather than the darkness.
Paying too much attention to problems only creates more of them.
Allow the Light from the Divine and your Soul to cleanse and heal you completely from within.
“I ask the Divine to remove attachments, negativity and dark energies from mysubtle energy field.”
Do this both crossed and uncrossed over the midline of your body.
Finish Your Business ~
You’re almost finished now, yet there’s still some business that keeps you stuck in the past. These thoughts keep stinging you for a reason!
What do you still need to realize about your situation? Look at it from a distance. Have you been trying to force something? Have you been trying to make something true that just isn’t? Do you need to pull back from a dangerous energy or situation? Do you need to detach from a negative tendency of your own?
Do you need to find a safer route to your destination? Most importantly, are you leaving yourself open to negative energies?
If so, use this Circle to gently detach and close them off.
Connect the Hara Lines ~
You may need to repair and/or strengthen hara lines for centering and improved healing. The hara lines are like tiny webs of light that connect the chakras to your center and extend throughout your body. Sometimes they’re broken or damaged because of trauma, illness, toxicity or sudden changes in the sympathetic nervous system (fight or flight).
This Circle gives extra energy to the hara lines that connect your chakras.
“I repair and strengthen my hara lines.” “My chakras are connected properly with my Soul through a beautiful web of light.”
This Circle also helps us navigate where we are and to organize our consciousness around being present. “I am present and inside of my body. External pressures and harmful energies are outside.”
Turn It Around ~
Now it’s time to make sure you’re tapping into positive energy and the new generative energies that are available in the New Paradigm.
“I decide to tap into positive energies and nurture myself.”
“I am open to being nurtured in new and beneficial ways.”
Utilize Generative Energy Flow ~
“I close old energy channels from the past that are causing harm.”
I now embrace the new generative flow of the Aquarian Age and use it to support my health, my prosperity and my happiness.”
Release Harmful Intentions that Keep You Stuck in the Past ~
Imagine all the things you used to wish for that have either been accomplished or that are no longer something you want. It’s time to let them go.
“I release any wishes or prayers that are irrelevant or harmful to me now.”
“My new intention is to _________ and to nurture my highest good.”
Dissolve Destructive Blueprints ~
Use this symbol to help you surrender any mental/emotional patterns that may be blocking positive thoughts, input and outcomes.
Patiently, bring in the Light and let it clear your energy field. Release your thoughts and worry until the darkness is all gone. The Light is transmuting, transforming and completingthis stage of your Souls journey.
Please note: Never send destructive energies into the Earth, she already has too much to handle now. Use the Earth for planting seeds of happiness and life – not death!
In the same way, clear away any violent thought forms that may be affecting you. Surrender them to the Light if possible.
Bring Closure to Old Pathways and Embrace Protection ~
Remember to close the pathways in your mind that lead back to suffering.
If those pathways remain open, all kinds of trouble (violent thought forms, karma, issues or emotions) can continue to pass back and forth through the opening without your awareness. This can manifest in sudden and mysterious illnesses, mental confusion, issues with prosperity or chronic states of overwhelm.
“I choose healthy boundaries and to be done with this sticky situation.”
“All holes, doors or passageways are sealed and healed.”
“I follow the direction of my Souls protection.”
Be sure to see them closed completely both crossed and uncrossed over the midline of your body.
Check Back Into Your Mosquito Mind Again ~
Remember the problem you started out this exercise with…
How are you seeing it? Is there another issue involved that keeps you stuck in the past?
If so, you can go through the exercise again later, with that issue in mind.
Finish With Closing Insights from Your Inner Guidance ~
Is there anything else that you need to know? Is there anything to change or prepare for?
Congratulations!
You are learning how to manage your energy effectively in the New Paradigm.
Now would be an excellent time to take a break and do something completely different. Go out for a walk in Nature, stretch or play a word game. After all, variety is the spice of life… plus, a break will help you to integrate what you’ve learned.
Whatever you do though, be sure to breathe deeply!

In this intuitive reading, Soul Resources offers a variety of SOS formulas and Transformation Games using the Intuitive Learning Circles and the I Ching to help us navigate DECLINE using wisdom and moderation.
The I Ching
The original intent of the I Ching was based on an Eastern philosophy of observation and marking changes in natural and human events. Through many centuries and contributions from shamans and master teachers, including Lau Tzu and Confucius, the Book of Change was developed into a full philosophy for applying beneficial human conduct to varying circumstances. The Art of Feng Shui is part of that philosophy.
The Chinese Zodiac–
Its the Chinese Year of the Black Yang Water Tiger.
The Chinese Zodiac animal that has dominated the energy of 2022 is the ferocious TIGER. There is no ignoring the arrogance, sudden changes and contradictory behaviors that he’s so well known for.
If we’re not careful, he threatens to pull us into a whirlpool of resentments and past conflicts, clawing away at each other with no end in sight!
The Tiger comes around every twelve years and his more positive qualities are: Confident, Courageous, Steadfast and Strong. What might we do to call upon that kind of energy instead?
The Tarot Major Arcana Card for 2022 –
VI: The Lovers Suggest a Potential for Unity ~
In numerology, the year 2022 breaks down to the number 6. 2 +2 +2 = 6. The Number VI Card of the Tarot is THE LOVERS representing unity, consciousness and purification.
Perhaps we can tap into the positive aspects of this archetype and utilize it to create more harmonious relationships.
Exploring the I Ching Energy –
Ever since 2009, Kuan Yin has offered her assistance through the I Ching and specially chosen Transformation Games, Mind Exercises and Self-care Formulas to help us navigate whatever changes were required.
As a time-honored and respected guide in the Healing Arts, her aim has always been to help us stay calm and navigate the chaotic transition from the old paradigm into the New Paradigm with clear minds and hearts.
Now, Kuan Yin wants to help us navigate DECLINE, which is the general trend in the Universe. *Caution! Her advice, as always, is direct and to the point!
The Availability of Life Force is in a General Trend of DECLINE – Hexagram #41. The original text states:
“The pendulum swings once again, this time moving into a general DECLINE. Although the DECLINE points to the beginning of a later flowering, the way you handle this current decrease in resources is of great importance. This decrease is in accordance with the forces in the cosmos and therefore perfectly natural and completely unavoidable. You will ultimately benefit, however, from any sacrifices you must now make.
Accept the DECLINE and respond appropriately by simplifying your life. A sincere and simplified approach to life will prevent you from making serious mistakes and will improve your sense of timing. If you find the DECLINE unacceptable and continue the pretense of more opulent times you will fall into error and out of touch with reality.
Simplicity at this time is genuinely good for your inner development. You must now alter certain attitudes by curbing your instincts and passionate drives. Even in your innermost Self you must economize in accordance with the current DECLINE of the life force. If you normally function with a great deal of tension, it is time to modify your behavior. Become conscious of any extravagant emotional reactions. By sacrificing any indulgences that occur at the instinct level, you can now benefit the higher aspects of your nature.” ~ Hexagram #41 DECLINE, The I Ching Workbook by R. L. Wing
Navigate Decline Through Strength ~
“Since the arrival of the Aquarian Age (Air), and the decline in Piscean energies (Water), your bodies and psyches have been challenged to adjust to the transition. Human beings have no template for what’s happening, therefore, there’s much confusion and running around in circles.
When there’s a general DECLINE in available life force flowing through the Tao like this, it’s best to stop spending your energy and resources on no win situations or other wasteful, time-consuming projects. The time is ideal for letting go of mistaken ideas or other dilemmas that have been haunting you.
When What You’re Doing Isn’t Working, Stop and Find Another Way ~
The best way to approach any dilemma at any time is to find a completely new way of handling yourself. If you’re willing to lift your thinking up and out of the swamp you’ve been collectively stuck in, new solutions and answers to what ails you can emerge from the lighter, quicker energy channels that are available.
The new energy of Air (Aquarius) is the perfect medium for new thoughts, concepts and ideas to make their way into the collective.
The biggest obstacles seem to be:
stubborn attachments to revenge,
unreasonable expectations about wanting everything, whenever you want them without reasonable limitations, and
cynical refusal to cooperate with eachother for the common good.
These obstacles are buried deep within your collective psyches. The times are indeed difficult. Yet, if you are willing to be helped and have an open attitude, opportunities will begin to present themselves.”
As always, Kuan Yin offers her support and resources through a collection of Transformation Games, Mind Exercises and Self-care Formulas designed to help you go within and find answers.
Gaze softly at the SOS symbol and ask for a number between 1 – 9.
Scroll down to that number in the list of games and exercises below and check out what that process has to offer you.
Transformation Games and Mind Exercises to Navigate Decline ~
The ancient Chinese text describes finding MODERATION as the best way to make progress amidst chaos and Kuan Yin emphatically agrees. If you’ve been thrown off by recent events, this Transformation Game will help you get back into balance. When you’re able to walk the middle road between extremes, you’ll be surprised how much easier things get.
There’s more than enough things to be irritated about. Don’t let them get you down or drain your energy. This exercise is for when you’re ready to figure out what you need to do to stop making a bad situation worse and head in a healthier direction.
Your brain may feel like a computer that has too many tabs open! It could be the result of all the shocking events that have happened and are likely to continue. When your life is getting repeatedly disrupted and you’re feeling scattered, surprised, scared or vulnerable, use this exercise.
Use self-hypnosis to clear out interference and reorganize how you use your energy with this popular Transformation Game. Releasing your agreements with hatred, fear or falsehood will help you detach from old family patterns, outdated religious vows, or even a larger, collective entanglement like social unrest.
In Hexagram #49 CHANGING, the ancient text states: “The forces at work in the situation are in conflict, leaving the path open to change. Yet the work of bringing about such a change is as difficult as it is important. Stay open to the possibilities with this Transformation Game.
SOS Self-care Formulas and Mind Exercises can help you access calm and inner wisdom when things get chaotic:
6. Overwhelm Help. Whenever you’re so overwhelmed by events that you’re just ready to collapse in anger or grief, Overwhelm Help is the #One go-to self-care formula we offer that helps. Get back into balance in just a few short minutes.
7. Dispelling Self-doubt and Projections. To make decisions about what’s best for you now, you want to be able to distinguish between a thought or a memory and the reality of what’s really happening in the present. This self-care formula can help you clear away some of those projections and see things more clearly, from your own viewpoint.
8. Develop Healthy Boundaries. It’s a valuable skill to know how to shift your energy and develop healthy boundaries. This Self-care Formula uses affirmations and the Intuitive Learning Circles to help you learn to consciously close off the pathways to negative thoughts or emotions and shift into a more positive mindset.
Chakra Healing and Clearing ~
Recommended Transformation Games and Mind Exercises to Keep You Moving with the Flow, Rather than Against it.
The sheer amount of blocked or stuck energies indicates that we need to find innovative methods for handling radical energy reversals and be conscious about it.
Kuan Yin has helped put together a whole medicine cabinet of Transformation Games and Self-care Formulas that specifically address our chakras and their accompanying psychological challenges. See the full selection and explanation here>
