This week's messages
Changing our Patterns
My conversations with my mother are very predictable,
as she asks me the same questions about me and my
life, every time we speak, usually in the same order.
There was a time when I viewed her questions as
criticism, by the way she asked them and her tone of
voice, and was annoyed by them to the point that I
responded in anger and self-defense. So every
conversation with my mother always started and ended
the same way, her questions that aroused my self-
defense mechanisms that quickly turned to anger. This
was our pattern and it had been this way for many
years. Once I recognized the pattern, though, I
changed it and now while she still asks the same
questions, they do not make me angry and I no longer
feel that I have to defend myself.
I have learned to change my pattern.
When we engage in patterns of behavior with others,
they are usually based on past experiences that
become the theme for how we relate to them. Then
every interaction repeats that theme. In the case of
my mother, who has always been very critical of me,
the theme of our relationship is criticism and I perceive
criticism in our every interaction, whether or not she is
intentionally criticizing me. The next step is obvious-
one of us has to change the theme or we will continue
to go around in circles with no possibility of resolution.
Changing the theme is what we do when we change
our pattern.
Now note that we can change 'our' pattern and not
someone else's. So the difficult person in your life may
continue to be difficult. You're not able to change
them. What you can change is how you react to them
and your own pattern of behavior. Although they may
continue to do whatever they were doing in the past, it
no longer has the same effect on you and you will not
react or respond in the same, predictable way. What
may also happen is that this person will change their
own pattern of behavior so that a new relationship
develops, one that you both can enjoy and that does
not have any elements of the old patterns in it. Or they
may simply stop interacting with you.
Changing our patterns does take effort and a certain
amount of sacrifice, as we must be willing to give up
the drama, karma and difficult relationships with others
and to learn what it feels like to have pleasant, joyful
and carefree relationships. Many of our relationships
exist only because of the drama and karma so when it
ceases to exist, so do the relationships. While it does
take practice to learn to detach from our habitual and
accepted emotional reactions inherent in our patterns
of behavior, the result is our ability to reclaim our
power within every relationship and to develop
interactions with others that serve our Highest Good
and resonate with our higher vibrations. This week,
examine any patterns of behavior that you believe you
would like to change. Are you ready to release the
emotion, drama and karma? Are you willing to let the
entire relationship go if the drama is what kept it alive
for you? Can you change a pattern that exists between
you and someone difficult? Take steps to begin that
process-you won't be sorry and the rewards will
benefit you beyond measure.

Blessings to you all!
The June article is posted on
the Uriel Heals website and this month's message is is
all about our Breaking the Patterns. This week's article
discusses the themes in relationships, especially those
with our family, and how we can change the theme by
changing the pattern. This may not change another's
behavior towards us, but it release us from our
emotional attachments to it. Read this week's article
to learn about our individual responsibility in breaking
our own patterns. This
week's Today's Children article discusses the 'perfection
paradigm' that adult and children Indigos and Crystals
struggle with. And, a new article is posted on the
Today's Children page, on how Indigos are blurring the
gender
lines.

Indulge in a 'freak out' Moment
The little boy ahead of me in line at the grocery store
had just had enough. He was hot, tired and probably
hungry and he just threw back his head and wailed. I
was envious-sometimes I'd like to be able to just
throw a crying fit in public and not have someone think
I'm absolutely out of my mind. And because as an
adult I've learned to control my emotions and behavior
in public, I have a freak out moment at home instead,
where I give in to my fears and insecurities and just for
a few moments, let myself go and let the Universe
comfort me.
Sometimes life gets too hard and we have to allow
ourselves a 'freak out' moment, where we allow
ourselves to throw back out heads and wail. While I
would not suggest doing that in public, I would suggest
that we must remember, despite all of the spiritual work
that we have been doing in the past few years, that
we are human, we do have moments of weakness and
it's OK to indulge them once in a while. Rather than set
us back, these moments of weakness can help ease
some of the tension and stress and allow us to stop
what we're doing as we move on our path and look at
how far we've come. Because if we can be satisfied
with a 'freak out' moment and then move past it,
instead of staying in that energy for days, months or
even years, we've come a very long way indeed.
It is difficult to sustain the level of spiritual learning
that we have engaged in during the past few years
without giving in to that occasional admission that
we're tired, scared, hungry and need someone,
somewhere to reassure us that it's going to be all right.
We just forget, at times, that we are always taken
care of and need a reminder of just how much. Just like
the little boy in the grocery store whose mother was
pushing the cart that he was sitting in and standing
right in front of him, we want someone to stop
whatever they're doing and give us the attention and
reassurance that we need.
So if you're feeling like things are just not moving in the
right (or any direction) and you need some love and
attention from Spirit, it is OK to indulge in a 'freak out'
moment and just allow yourself to be lonely, tired,
scared or whatever you're feeling at that time.
Acknowledging that these emotions exist is just as
important as the process of healing them. In fact, we
must first acknowledge everything before we can heal
it. Then, listen for the answers or responses that you
get from the Universe. Perhaps someone will be put on
your path to help you; you may get a new teacher;
you may receive a miracle, or you may hear that quiet,
gentle voice telling you that everything is going to be
all right and that you are loved and protected beyond
measure. Then you can move forward, confident that
you have indeed, come a very long way.

Uriel's Message
What is necessary in your life? Is it the house you live
in, the car you drive, the job that you have? If you
were able to remove the unnecessary material
elements, what would you choose? Now, on an
emotional level, what is necessary for you? And on a
spiritual level? When we speak about what is
necessary, the reference is always made to the
material. But few ever move past that and look at the
other aspects of life, such as the emotional or spiritual
and look at now necessary the existing energies are for
them. In truth, very little of anything that you currently
have is necessary for the only necessary item in your
life is your connection with Source. When you have a
strong connection with Source everything that is
necessary emanates from that so anything else that
would serve to replace what is coming from source
would be unnecessary.
There is so much pressure on you to fill your lives with
necessary material items and the messages always tell
you that with this item will come the happiness and
peace that you seek. And then there is another item
and another promise, and so on and so on, until you
have a plethora of items and little joy and peace. And
how many of you actually think about whether certain
emotions are necessary? If you would take the time to
ask yourselves whether those things that are
uncomfortable for you or that do not contribute to your
sense of joy are necessary, you would find that there
would be far fewer disruptions in your life and it would
not be cluttered with things that do not serve you.
When you can seek the truth in everything, you have
removed yourself from the fear and can stand in your
own power, for when you are able to ask what is
necessary you are at that place where you can detach
from the purpose and value of everything and walk in
faith, knowing that only that which is truly necessary
will remain in your life. There is a great deal of freedom
in knowing that your needs are taken care of when you
walk in faith and trust and you do not have to worry
about hanging on to anything because all that is in your
life is what is necessary.
Are you ready to question what is necessary in your
life? Are you willing to detach from everything that is
not necessary, including your material goods and
relationships? When you can question the necessity of
things in your life then you have made tremendous
strides in your spiritual growth because you stand in
the ability to trust that only the things that you need
are in your life and nothing else. The great teacher,
Jesus, said it well when he said 'it is easier for a camel
to walk through the eye of the needle that it is for a
rich man to go to heaven.' He was talking about our
ability to let go of the unnecessary material world and
all of its emotions and move forward with confidence
and trust so that we are able to do the work that we
have come here to do without the distraction of
holding on to things that are unnecessary. And how do
you define them? The things that seem to slip through
your fingers no matter how hard you attempt to hold
onto them, are unnecessary. Everything that is required
for your physical, emotional and spiritual well-being will
be provided for you. The Universe loves you beyond
measure and you should expect to be taken care of so
that you learn to enjoy and appreciate what is provided
for you and to not fill your lives with the unnecessary.

Today's Children-Changing the Perfection Paradigm
The new article on today's children is now available on
the website. This generation is known by
many names, including Indigo and Crystal Children, Star
Children, Light Children. Whatever name they are known
by, they are a generation that we have never seen
before and they have special needs, gifts and talents.
The Crystal and Indigo children represent the new,
higher energetic patterns that are arriving to change
the Earth's vibrational frequency.This new series
provides information on these children and the
wonderful gifts they bring to the world.
There is so much pressure on children today to be
perfect, to excel academically, in sports and in their
personal lives. Many children lead over-scheduled lives
so that they can ascribe to a model of perfection that
will allow them to get into the 'right' colleges and
universities and get the 'right' job. But Indigos and
Crystals have come here to change that paradigm of
perfection and they are doing it in very unique ways.
Indigos, by creating shock value through the way that
they rebel against the system, dress in ways that are
considered 'inappropriate', cover their bodies in tattoos
and piercings and showing a deliberate disregard for the
ways that things 'should' be done. Crystals, while
younger, are also rebelling against the perfection
paradigm in their own way. Many Crystals simply will
not speak until they are ready, refuse to do anything
that they feel is not right for them and maintain their
spiritual center no matter what happens around them.
The perfection paradigm is a social expectation that is
not limited to children. Even adults are under
tremendous pressure to look, dress and act according
to the latest socially accepted model. Adult Indigos and
Crystals suffer from this societal pressure and may
respond in one of two ways-they either do their best
to become just like those around them or they 'opt out'
and do their own thing, becoming a sort of social
outcast. It is less of a rebellion on their part than the
simple fact that they simply cannot conform to what
they do not believe in. But if we look at what is going
on around us with any level of objectivity, a glaring
truth is obvious. It is not possible for anyone, child or
adult, to become the model of perfection, because it is
a moving target, a constantly changing standard.
Indigos have a great deal to teach us about become
individuals and being proud that we are not like others.
They are the first generation of children to use shock
value as a means of making their point that they are
here to change the way we interact with each other. If
everyone's appearance is shocking, then the shock
value soon wears off and we can no longer judge
between perfect and imperfect. And we learn to
overcome our initial reaction to someone's appearance
and stop criticizing and judging others based on the
way they look or dress. Then we will be ready for the
healing energy of the Crystal children, who are here to
teach us about acceptance, unconditional love and
healing. But it is only when we are able to see
ourselves, and those around us, as the embodiment of
perfection on a spiritual level that we can open the
door to these energies. What is perfect and who gets
to decide? The Indigos tell us that they are each
perfect, no matter what they look like. And they are
right. It is no longer as shocking to see blue hair,
pierced lips, tongues, ears, eyebrows and navels,
thanks to the Indigos. And soon we will learn to
overlook other differences, such as gender, skin color,
race and national origin and begin to vibrate at levels
that allow us to experience unconditional love and see
everyone, everywhere as the embodiment of perfection
on every level.
