On our Camino Adventure today we left Porto for Viana do Castelo.  We took a bus from Porto to this sweet city on the coast and today we begin our walk.  It will be the longest walk of the trip – approximately 14 miles.  Although no one has to walk more than they’d like – they can always take a taxi at any point.

We had some issues today.  One person misplaced the bag with her walking shoes, which is quite upsetting if you’re about to walk the Camino – you do not want to buy new shoes and break them in on the Camino.  They were missing just before we got on the bus to leave town.  I firmly stood in the Light and held they were not missing, not gone, not lost.  And, as it turns out they weren’t.

Another person left their phone on the bus by accident.  Again, I held firm, it will be returned before we leave town, and indeed, before sunset the phone was back in his hand.  

Again, we get to remember not to plan for things we don’t want.

We hold that Spirit is in charge and only the highest and best can unfold, because that’s all we’re interested in.

That’s all we accept.  

It’s tempting to complain and worry and be fearful, until we realize that we really don’t have to go that road anymore.  It’s a habit.  It’s a habit that can be broken.

When there’s fear, our trust is in ego, in fear, in lack, in opinions, and in the past.  

When there’s peace our trust is in Love, in Spirit.  

We decide where to place our trust.  No one can decide for us.  

When we develop the habit of placing our trust in Spirit then life becomes an experience with less and less fear and more and more Love.  How cool is that?

I’ve got several things coming up you may find fun and helpful:

• Finding Freedom From Fear Spiritual Bootcamp based on ACIM principles starts October 16
• Forgiveness Retreat in the NY Catskills November 9 to 12
• Spiritual Counseling Training Intensive in the NY Catskills November 13 to 19
  • If you’re interested in the training, consider coming to the Forgiveness Retreat too to have a MAJOR shift!

Let’s make a quantum leap together.  

If you’d like my help developing a spiritual practice of Self-care that clears out the old patterns of past beliefs in order to move out of the unconscious guilt and punishing yourself, blaming others, living like a victim or a martyr, feeling guilty and ashamed, and into feeling more connected with Spirit, please check out my Finding Freedom From Fear Spiritual Bootcamp class – it’s designed to be a rocket booster for your spiritual journey.

If you feel you’ve been holding yourself back and letting fear decide, this might be your answered prayer! If it’s right for you, you’ll know. Trust your intuition!
