When We Take Time to Pause, Amazing Space Opens

It's been a little over five months since my last newsletter, and what an extraordinary five months it has been!

In my May 11 issue, Healing at the Core, I wrote about the importance of strengthening the foundations of our daily lives and shared a deeply personal experience of healing an old childhood wound around feeling unlovable.

Little did I know how much I would be living that message in the months that followed.

After 3.5 years of producing The Awakening, I had reached a point where the weekly commitment was no longer sustainable. I was spending as much as 20 hours a week researching, writing, and creating each issue, and financially it wasn't supporting the time and energy I was giving it.

So I gave myself permission to stop.

What followed has been a wonderful period of tending to my own life. I've been organizing, clearing clutter, simplifying my surroundings, creating better systems for everyday living, and discovering just how much pleasure there is in caring for the little things that make life work beautifully.

And I've continued exploring my relationship with money, self-worth, receiving, and abundance.

Which brings me to something I came across this week that I simply couldn't resist sharing with you.

What particularly caught my attention was the approach taken by Edward Mannix, creator of the Compassion Key, a healing method in which I am a certified practitioner.

Edward is offering a 99-day program called Abundance Beyond Reason, designed to help participants explore and clear the emotional patterns, limiting beliefs, and unconscious blocks that may be influencing their relationship with money and abundance.

And here's what I find so extraordinary.

The program is normally $1,220, but Edward has created a remarkable contribution model based on the principle of No One Left Behind. Participants can choose from a range of reduced payment options, potentially bringing the cost as low as $61. And for those who cannot afford even that, other community members have the opportunity to contribute toward their enrollment.

Imagine that! A program about abundance that actually puts the principles of generosity, receiving, and supporting one another into practice.

What also fascinated me was Edward's recognition that creating greater abundance isn't necessarily limited to working on our beliefs about money. It can involve the practical ways we organize and care for our lives.

Decluttering our homes, freeing up our time, and creating more supportive daily structures can become part of that process.

I've been experiencing something of this myself over the past five months. As I've cleared clutter, organized my surroundings, and simplified my routines, I've discovered how much energy and attention can become available when we're no longer surrounded by things waiting to be dealt with.

And it has me wondering about the deeper possibilities.

How much of our mental and emotional energy is quietly occupied by unfinished business, accumulated possessions, and patterns we've simply grown accustomed to? And when we begin clearing that space, what new possibilities might we finally have room to recognize and welcome?

For me, this is becoming another dimension of healing at the core. I'm learning that caring for my time, my surroundings, my energy, and my finances is part of creating a life in which abundance has room to grow.

Whether or not Edward's program is something you would personally want to participate in, I think his approach to making it accessible is worth exploring.

I invite you to watch his presentation, learn more about the abundance-clearing work, and experience for yourself the spirit behind No One Left Behind.

The replay is available until Sunday night, October 25, 2026.

A personal note: I'm sharing Edward's work simply because I appreciate what he's creating and wanted to pass it along. I have no affiliate partnership or financial arrangement connected to this program.
