Life is too short to hold grudges

Don’t let unforgiveness poison your life

Free yourself by forgiveness.

Today I invite you to make a clean slate with the past and move on and forwards with your life.

Forgiving someone with an attitude of “I don’t care” while there’s clearly still pain and hurt left within you is not really forgiving someone.

To hold an unconscious/subconscious grudge towards someone is only going to poison your life, even if you think you’ve moved on by switching off your (surface level) emotions.

When you’re able to say “I don’t care” and being completely emotionally neutral (or even feel gratitude for what happened) when uttering those words, that’s when you’ve finally come to peace with whatever happened.

This means the healing work must go deeper than only being willing to send “love and light” to them, thinking that will be it.

Until you can be completely neutral regarding them there’s more releasing and healing work to do, so my invitation today is to do the inner work necessary and be done with it, once and for all.

No matter who has hurt you or what happened, forgive everything today. Forgive the people involved, yourself, and the whole situation.

Set yourself free.

Ask yourself if you want to be right, or if you want to be free.

You might think that it’s all ‘their fault’, and that may be right, but forgive anyway and move on.

Life is too short for resentment and holding on to pain and hurt.

Choose to open your heart today – and choose to keep it open, no matter what. It’s a choice we all make at every moment of our life.

It’s up to us to open our hearts and keep it open, and we can also choose to close it and keep it closed. It’s a moment-to-moment choice, and we’re always making it, either consciously or unconsciously.

We might think it was all them, and yes, maybe it was, sometimes it is, but who cares? Bring forgiveness and healing anyway.

It doesn’t mean that you have to become friends or even be in contact with the person or people ever again.

All it means is that you chose to open your heart and offered some kind of healing to the situation, to them, and to yourself.

Whatever the unforgiveness and pain is about in your life, ask yourself:

“What can I do to bring healing to this situation?”

The answers will come when you sit with this question for a moment.

Just sit quietly for a few moments and ask the questions within yourself.

Tears might come, and if so, cry them out, it’s part of the healing process.

The answer will come too, and you will feel a sense of love coming into your heart.

You might also feel resistance from the ego who does not want the healing or forgiveness because it wants to hold on to the grudge, the hurt, and the pain.

With a bit of self-awareness you will know when this happens.

Many times the resistance from the ego is actually a clear indication that you’re on to something good so pay attention to when that happens.

When the ego doesn’t want to do something you can rest assured that it’s exactly what your soul wants, and when you have the awareness, you also have choice.

Unconscious people don’t have the same freedom of choice (or “free will”), they just live out their programming, but you have it. You have the awareness, so you can choose what voice to listen to.

Again ask yoursef “Do I want to be right, or do I want to be free?” (and ultimately happy.)

Choosing freedom means you have to be willing to lower your guard and be vulnerable and even risk being rejected and completely misuderstood.

This should be okay with you if you truly want freedom.

Only the ego is concerned about losing face or being seen as weak.

Turn to Truth again and ask:

“What can I do that would allow for healing to take place?”

Whatever comes up, do that.

It may be to write a letter to someone that you then send, or don’t send. It might be for your eyes (and heart) only, and that’s okay.

It might also be to swallow your pride and contact someone you lost touch with and ask how they’re doing and then just take it from there.

Before you do this though;

Write down some notes for yourself that will help keep you on track and not get caught up in any drama in case old wounds are being exposed and flare up.

Stay with your intent, which is to bring healing to the situation or relationship.

Not with the intent to get back together again, or become friends again or whatever, but to bring healing.

So it’s important that you go into the conversation feeling clear about your intention and that you operate from a place of peace and alignment.

That will be your safety-bubble, because if you just stay with your intent, you’ll be able to pull out with your integrity still intact if things get ugly.

Miracles can happen too, remember that, so let love lead the unfolding of the event and the process.

And if they don’t want the healing or resolution, that should be okay too.

You can only control you and your own emotional state in any dealings with other people.

Sometimes it’s you that needs to say “I’m sorry”.

Or at least own your part of whatever happened.

If the other person seems hurt, then they probably are, so even if you don’t know exactly why, or what it was that you did that contributed to the pain, then you can also direct the question towards them.

“I want you to know that my heart is open for you, and if there is anything I can do to bring healing to you then I’m open to hear it.”

Maybe they only need to vent (this can be done in a calm and healthy way) and share their side of the story (seen and experienced from their perspective), and if so, let them talk without interuption.

If you truly want to be the bringer of peace and healing then you will be able to do this without letting your ego become all defensive and aggravated.

Remember that it is only their perspective and that it doesn’t encompass the whole truth.

Sometimes just being able to say what you feel, is all that is needed for healing to take place. People just want to be heard, just like you.

People act and behave from their level of consciousness and awareness, so it’s good to keep this in mind.

It’s true that ‘hurt people hurt’; but the soul doesn’t want revenge, it wants healing, but this doesn’t mean that you have to own up to something that you don’t agree with.

If you feel wrongly accused when they vent and share their feelings, just listen, and say that you’re sorry they feel that way and then thank them for sharing their side of the story.

You can also forgive and bring healing to situations without ever even seeing the people involved.

To do this, journal about it and then meditate and send love to the people involved, to the whole situtation, and forgive yourself too, even if you feel you’ve done nothing wrong.

Forgive the whole thing – all of it, and let it go.

Here’s a BONUS AUDIO I made many years ago that can be helpful to you.

It’s called “Guided Forgiveness Meditation: Forgive others, be forgiven, and forgive yourself” (29 min.)

You can find the forgiveness and healing meditation HERE.

Keep safe boundaries.

It’s also important to keep your boundaries, so a good way to do this is to ask yourself these two questions and then find some kind of middle way between the answers.

  • First question: “What would Love do?”
  • Second question: “What advice would I give my very best friend if he/she was in my situation?”

And then go from there.

Even if everyone is essentially the Divine, most people are living out their programming and conditioning on an unconscious level so they don’t even know it.

So if someone is unconscious (spiritually unaware), then you’ll be mostly dealing with their ego (conditioned self) so that needs to be taken into consideration too when talking with them.

Understanding this brings compassion, but it also helps you to stand firmly in your own divine power so you don’t get trampled on by other people’s wounded egos.

If you know they have strong narcissistic personalities though it’s best to not get them directly involved in your forgiveness and healing process at all.

Whatever you do and however you choose to do this;

Go in with an open heart and resolve to let it stay open the whole way, all to the end so that healing can take place.

Do not let it shut down or close.

This is your healing and your freedom is at stake, and a closed heart can’t be healed, it must remain open, no matter what.

Go in with peace – and leave with peace – and leave peace as you go.

Don’t allow anything to come between you and your unconditional love for life, and your commitment to freedom.

Stay in the moment even if they want to go to the past.

Do not allow past hurts cloud your Now, and also make no promises of or for tomorrow.

Just stay in the Now and deal with what is right then and there, and do it from a place of presence and alignment.

Raise your vibration by being willing to let go so that nothing can stay in your system that would continue to block the flow.

May all go well and may you all find peace and healing today.

It was more than I could ever hoped for or expected

My experience with Maria was more than I could ever hoped for or expected. I had such a positive experience working with her. I feel like a huge weight have been lifted and I have so much more perspective on what I have been struggling with. She cleared up my energy and I feel more myself, more at peace and all around better mentally and emotionally since my sessions with her.

Miriam, Espoo, Finland

I experienced a PROFOUND shift 

I can’t put into words how much you have helped me. I couldn’t have kept it all together had I not experienced a PROFOUND shift during and after my session with you.

Thank you, Maria!

I couldn’t be more grateful to have Maria in my life. Her guidance and energy is profound!

– Robert, CA, USA

I was taken over by a peacefulness

After our session, something happened within me that I cannot explain nor would it even make sense to anyone. There was a part of me that felt my being been taken over by a real peacefulness that I’ve never encountered before. Sounds odd but it’s the truth.

Can’t recommend her enough!

Working with Maria was one of the best investments I ever made in myself. I’ve seen immediate shifts in my energy as well as learned to work with my own energy and mind. It has been one of the single most transformational experiences of my life. Can’t recommend her enough!

– Chris, USA

My life has changed dramatically

Since plugging in to your words of wisdom my life has changed dramatically. You pointed me in the right direction and that gave me courage to continue moving through whatever process I may find myself in and the ability to take refuge in the truth within me.

Her unique ability to read your state helped me to breakthrough

Maria’s intuitive abilities have been instrumental to the personal growth I’ve experienced as a result of working together. I’ve had HUGE shifts in my beliefs. Her undivided attention, presence and unique ability to read your state helped me to breakthrough and release old patterns and replace them with new self-empowering practices that have truly shifted my life. I would highly recommend Maria to anyone. I am forever changed and forever grateful!

Joanna, USA

More transformational than any other thing that I’ve tried

I highly recommend Maria! I don’t even recognize the person who started working with her a few months ago. Maria clearly sees what is blocking, stopping or limiting you. Working with her has been more transformational than any other thing that I’ve tried. There have been profound shifts in the way I see myself and the world, so many shifts in my energy and life. I find myself so much lighter and freer. Thank you Maria!

Britt, Marbella, Spain

A calm came over me

I could feel the tension leaving my body and a calm came over me by just being in her presence. Everything flows so naturally with her and my life is more beautiful and I feel at peace knowing I have her by my side. I feel blessed to have her in my life.

Cecilia, Stockholm, Sweden

I had a complete turnaround to my situation

The distance healing was amazing. I had a complete turnaround to my situation so many thanks for helping me transform something I had lost hope about. It’s a miracle and the outcome could not have turned out better! If you want to see a real shift not just psychological but spiritual shift, then Maria is the lady to see. I am so glad I found you!

– Sophie P

I cannot believe what you were able to achieve in one session

I don’t really know where to start. I find myself at a loss for words. All I can say to you is Thank You. This was unlike any healing session that I have ever been in and I say that from the bottom of my skeptical, over analytical heart who had literally tried everything one could think of. I cannot recommend you enough to other people, you are a gift. I also cannot believe what you were able to achieve in one session, to me it is groundbreaking. Thank you!!!

Rosie Bebawi, Marbella, Spain

Maria is leading people to a new way of being

Maria is changing the world by her presence. She’s leading people to a new way of being. She’s rare because she’s able to see where you are at in your journey and can show you the way forward. I feel so incredibly grateful that she has been a companion during this time of change. If you feel drawn to connect with Maria I encourage you to move forward with confidence.

– Carolyn W. Asheville, NC, USA

My life has radically changed for the better

I finally know my worth. I feel so different now, I feel lighter, happier and more self confident and it’s easy to let go of people and situations that don’t serve me. I treasure the time I spend talking with Maria and look forward to my sessions with her. There has been big changes in my life, synchronicities showing up like magic and I’m constantly blown away at the business and opportunities that I’m attracting. My life has radically changed for the better after I met Maria.

— Robin, New York, USA

I needed help in getting my life back

From the first sentence you spoke directly related to what I was going through, I felt so uplifted and light. It still blows me away when I think about it now! Never once did I feel judged, or uncomfortable in any way. I feel like this heavy weight of negativity has fallen away from me and I couldn’t get those awful feelings back if I tried. I can’t stress enough what a gift it is to be able to work with somebody like Maria. Talk about amazing grace!

I’ve never had a conversation like that before

I just wanted to say thank you so much again for our session yesterday, I’ve never had a conversation like that before and it was truly amazing. I could feel weight lifted as we were talking and for the first time my mind did not try to make sense of things, it was all truly felt in the heart space.

Val, Melbourne, Australia

I have never felt more aligned to my true self

Maria’s awareness of energies and the conditions of the mind are truly impressive. She knows exactly what’s going on. She is so attuned to other peoples’ energy that she just knows where you’re at. After working with her I have never felt more alive and aligned to my true self.

Andrew B, San Diego, CA, USA

The whole session felt as if it was operating on another level

If you can trust one thing in your life right now, trust Maria. You can trust her with your heart and soul. It’s hard to explain, the whole session felt as if it was operating on another level. I’ve never had that kind of experience before. It just felt so much bigger than I anticipated. I can tell you with absolute honesty and conviction that having a session with Maria is life-changing!

– Lisa, USA

You have really made a difference in how my mind works

I don’t know if I make sense, but all I can say is that I feel blissful. And I can’t thank you enough for that. I don’t know exactly how you managed this, but you have really made a difference in how my mind works.

– Silvia, Marbella, Spain

Profound shift

I can’t put into words how much you have helped me. I couldn’t have kept it all together had I not experienced a PROFOUND shift during and after my session with you.

You are truly a gift to us all!

I can’t even begin to express how much I have gained internally after my session with you. You have been an instrument of peace in my life. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

 I am so glad that I reached out to you

Maria, you are truly godsend. I cannot describe how happy I am. I have no idea what you did and how you did, but I am truly grateful to you. My words in this email cannot thank you enough. Today is the first day that I woke up feeling as if I am ready to take on the world. I am so glad that I reached out to you. I am truly grateful to you. I will definitely recommend you to my friends and family!

Something happened within me that I cannot explain

After our session, something happened within me that I cannot explain nor would it even make sense to anyone. There was a part of me that felt my being been taken over by a real peacefulness that I’ve never encountered before. Sounds odd but it’s the truth.

– A.

Could not more highly recommend

Maria is the real deal. You will sense it the moment you lay eyes on her. She offered much, much more than I’ve derived from other teachers; highly specific and personal recommendations. It is as though I got a crash graduate course from spirit. Could not more highly recommend!

Catherine Rondeau, Westport, Connecticut, USA

The feeling of peace and freedom is priceless

With only that one session and the healing she carried out, I’ve been without grudges, feelings of being hurt or anything on those lines. This feeling of peace and freedom is priceless. Maria is beyond amazing. Had I not experienced it myself, I would probably not believe it. I recommend anyone who is trying hard to be truly free and really start walking down the path of self fulfillment and happiness to book a session with her.
