This week's messages
Be More, Care Less
There are many things in life that we care about and
that is a good thing. When we care about something
we believe that it is important, has value and meaning
and matters to us. On an emotional level, when we
care about something we attach emotional energy and
significance to it. On a spiritual level, when we care
about something we attach our spiritual energy to it
and make it part of our 'being' so that when we think
about ourselves, the things that we care about are
part of the picture. That's fine when those things
involve people and situations that we consciously care
about.
But what about the things that we care about in an
unconscious way, whether they are from our past or
are part of our belief system. These matter to us, in
many ways, even more than the things that we
consciously care about. What we unconsciously care
about involves what I call 'soul level 'promises', which I
wrote about in the book The Little Tree. These are the
things that we tell ourselves, or have told ourselves in
the past, that we will 'never' or always do or be, so
that they become part of every situation that we face.
Soul level promises are generally born from fear and
involve experiences where we were once hurt,
embarrassed, or shamed in some way. And they are
very powerful motivators. They can cause us to repeat
experiences, over and over again, not understanding
why things in our life don't work or why we seem to
make the same choices or put ourselves in situations
that bring us unhappiness.
When we can 'be' more in our own lives, we can stop
becoming involved in the emotional dramas that 'caring'
brings to us. Because when we 'care' about something,
it leads us to 'doing', to constant activity to ensure
that whatever it is, it doesn't fail through our lack of
effort. That doesn't mean that we have to spend our
lives not caring about anything. Not at all. But we can
learn to choose what we care about and ensure that it
is a conscious decision, based on what is happening at
the present moment, and not on something that
happened years ago, or even something that we
learned from another. Choosing what to focus our
emotional and spiritual energy on gives us more control
over what is happening in our lives and keeps us on our
own path. Then we can avoid the emotional detours
caused by situations that are a direct result of our
focus on caring.
This week pay attention to what you care about and
how much that contributes to what you spend
time 'doing'. Assess whether it is a conscious decision-
you choose to do that or an unconscious one-you
have no idea why that particular thing or situation is
important to you. Then take the next step-is this
something that you choose to continue to care about
or not? Your choice decision is simple, does this bring
you joy or not? If it brings you joy, then you're on the
right path. But if it does not bring you joy, then it is
time to make a conscious decision whether you want to
continue to put your emotional and spiritual energy in
that direction. Remember that life is about choosing to
be, and that includes being happy, abundant and at
peace. We are all responsible for whatever is part of
our reality and that includes what we care about. Care
about what serves your Highest Good and the peace,
joy and abundance that you seek will come to you
effortlessly.

Blessings to you all!
The April article is posted on the Uriel Heals
website and this month's message is about how to 'be
more and do less.' We live in such a busy world that our
focus is on doing instead of on being, so we are in a
state of constant motion, but are we getting
anywhere? This week's article is on how to be more and
care less--whatever we care about we put our
emotional and spiritual energy towards. We do have a
choice in the matter and if we do not choose, we can
become victims in others' dramas...
This week's Today's Children article addresses how to
channel adult and child Indigo crystal energy into
action.
I would like to welcome all of our new subscribers and

What is Good?
Each of us has a different opinion of what is good,
which is very personal and is based on our beliefs and
perceptions. So each 'good' thing in life means
something different to everyone. And yet, we are
constantly marketed to by hundreds of organizations,
each one telling us that their version of 'good' is the
best. It's confusing and more-it can also challenge our
beliefs about the 'good' that we are pursuing. Is it
right, is it enough, is there more? When is good, good
enough?
What if, one day, everyone in the world decided that
their life was good enough, that they had exactly what
they needed to feel good about themselves and their
lives and didn't need anything else? Since our
economies are fueled by an endless focus on having
more, deciding that we don't need any more would
certainly change a few things. But how often do we
challenge our beliefs about what is good or good
enough in our lives? Do we ever come to a point where
we look at our lives and tell ourselves that we have
done well, we are satisfied and that whatever is in our
lives, at the present moment, is good enough? Not
that it can't move forward and change, but are we ever
truly satisfied with what we have at any point in time?
How much of the dissatisfaction that we feel about
ourselves is truly ours, and how much of it is based on
others' perceptions? Since reality exists in the present
moment and we create our reality, according to
Universal law, everything that we have is good and
good enough, at any moment in time. This is another
aspect of the Shift energy, learning to set our own
boundaries and definitions for the good in our lives. If
we choose the elements that comprise our reality, then
we should be in control of what those elements look
like. And we should be in control of the definition of
good and always able to bring more good things to us.
If we will spend our time focusing on what is good in
our lives and not on what appears to be missing,
Universal law tells us that we bring more good to us.
But that is an internal process-by being happy and
satisfied, we create happiness and satisfaction. Since
we are constantly changing our perceptions with the
changing Shift energy, what we accept or are satisfied
with changes as we raise our vibrations. This week
focus on what is good in your life, on what you are
satisfied with. Even if things are not going well right
now and you are under pressure financially, in your
relationships, or in your job be grateful that you have
the knowledge to recognize that there are things that
need to be changed. And then focus on what is good
and what that means to you so that you can bring
more good to you.

Uriel's Message
What does it mean to you when you take responsibility
for something? Think about that for a moment. Does it
mean that you are in control of the outcome, that you
must answer for the results, that you are accountable?
And what do those concepts mean to you-that you
will suffer if your performance does not measure up?
What are you measuring your performance against?
When something is your responsibility, is there an
obligation to make things work, to make things right, to
perform according to a standard, no matter what the
cost to you? And, do you take the concept of
responsibility personally, so that if things do not work
out the way you believe they should, that somehow
you are less than capable or competent?
Think about the word responsibility and what it means
to you because its accepted meaning today has
nothing to do with the concept of responsibility. For it
has everything to do with the ability to create the
outcome that you want by choosing your response.
Responsibility is all about response-ability, the ability to
respond to a situation, to manifest that outcome
according to your highest good. And the ability to
change what does not serve your highest good. The
way that you respond to situations and to people in
your life is based on your understanding of your
personal power. Too often, being made responsible is
done so in a way that diminishes your power. When
dealing with others you are often held responsible when
things go wrong, rather than when they go well. And
that can lead you to believe that you have no power
and are not in control.
Does that change the way that you view this concept?
When you take responsibility, you are holding yourself
accountable for the outcome because it is part of your
reality and you created it. Because you created it you
have control over it and you do not have to take it a
few steps further and feel badly about yourself because
it didn't turn out the way someone else thought that it
should. You respond to every situation based on your
beliefs in your own power and abilities. You are the only
one who can respond to a situation and how it
manifests in your reality. For example, something
happens at your job that creates problems for your
manager. She wants you to take responsibility for it.
Are you willing to be responsible for her problems? No,
but you can be responsible for creating the situation
and, if it is serious enough, for creating a situation that
forces you to take a look at what you are doing as a
livelihood.
Remember that every situation and person is in your life
to provide you with opportunities to heal. When you
give your power away to these issues by holding
yourself accountable to another's standards and reality,
you also give up your ability to create another potential
reality for yourself. So, the outcome becomes familiar-
you feel powerless and reassured that you have, once
again, not done well. But the Shift is changing this and
allowing you to move in other directions, taking back
your power and creating new ways to respond to
situations. Each time you feel you have to take
responsibility, consider it as another way to respond.
How will you do that this time so that you stay
grounded in your power and create joyful and abundant
outcomes in your reality? That is the lesson of the Shift
and the new meaning of responsibility.

Today's Children-Creating Outlets for Indigo Energy
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.
As a child growing up in the 1960s, I was not expected
to have opinions about anything, much less than voice
them. Being who I was, though, I voiced my opinions
often and just as often, paid the price for it. It was
frustrating to me that I was expected to be seen and
not heard, to accept others' reality for me and to not
complain about anything. Most adults who carry the
Indigo and Crystal energy grew up under those
conditions and they were determined to listen to their
own children and to allow them to have opinions about
things. So when we had children of our own, it was
important to us to allow our children the freedom to say
what was on their minds and to listen to them.
I think that we were unprepared, though, for the
challenges of the Indigo children and the extent to
which they can find things to complain about or to
criticize. Our version of allowing them their opinions is a
watered down view of their expectations. A friend of
mine, for example, has an Indigo child who complains
about everything and constantly criticizes her mother
who takes her comments very personally. But this
Indigo child is like that with everyone and has a
reputation for being difficult and angry. In reality, she is
not, but she is frustrated by her inability to see the
results of her desire to change things around her.
Remember that Indigos are intuitive and empathic so
they are aware of things that others are not. And to
them, when something needs to be changed, you do
what it takes to change it. They are very intolerant of
people's reluctance or inability to change or desire to
stay with the status quo. And they can become very
frustrated when they believe that they are not heard,
which leads to anger and bitterness, making them a bit
impossible to live with.
Indigo energy is so strong that if it is not directed in
the proper channels, it can become quite
uncontrollable-for both themselves and for others.
Indigos need outlets for their energy and they need to
feel that they are heard and understood. Dealing with
an angry Indigo is best done by asking the right
questions-what are they thinking, what are they
feeling, how can you help, is there an avenue that they
would like to explore to be able to vent some of their
frustration and see progress? Many young Indigos (and
Indigo adults) are excellent writers and artists and
enter the world of film at an early age. They know that
the best way to encourage change is to get people to
recognize the situation from a different perspective and
they can shed new light on situations. They are not
content to just expose the situation, however, they are
also very creative when it comes to finding solutions.
Opening the doors of opportunity for Indigo children
(and young adults) will allow them to initiate the
changes that they came here to make, to do their
work. If we will help them as much as we can, we will
help them channel their wonderful energy in powerful
ways that will bring change to the planet and raise
humanity's vibrations so that everyone can move
through the Shift. This is true for the adult Indigo
energy, which is truly coming into its own at this time
and needs expression. If you are the parent of an
Indigo child, this is an excellent opportunity for you to
share your need to express yourself and find an outlet
for your energy that allows you to bring change to the
world.
