Emerging From Quarantine With Better Relationships

We are in this evolving time where all of our actions and relationships look different than they did before. Previous to quarantine, we had a natural flow, a natural grace, and a natural ease that we didn’t have to think about. We had a natural rhythm for our own lives, and we had our rhythms with the people we saw regularly. 

Some of those rhythms were really beautiful. 

And some of those rhythms needed to get disrupted so we could have time to really rethink them and to assess the way that the relationships were going. 

This pertains to all relationships — not just romantic ones, but also work relationships, relationships with friends, and relationships with families. 

In my spiritual communion, on a daily basis, I work with more than 200 saints from many world religions, ancestors, and highly evolved beings. 

Our Guides lovingly ask us to look at the relationships of those closest to you; who you used to have interaction with in person all of the time. 

This is a really good time to assess for yourself:

“How healthy were those interactions for me? And whose happiness was I serving in those interactions?” 

In your life before quarantine, there were the people you specifically chose to see; and there were the people in your extended community that you saw because you were working together or you were in a community together; like a friend group, church, temple, or any other ongoing community gathering where you’d regularly be seeing certain people. 

Whether we’re quarantining with other people or not, we’re spending so much more time on our own, that there’s the inward reflection of who we are. Hopefully, who you are feels really solid to you. And because you so solidly know who you are, you can look at how you interact with others. 

Keeping your cup full

In the ideal state, you and every other person on this entire planet are operating with a full cup. These are your feelings of self love, self care, abundance, feeling safe, feeling protected, and feeling whole, so you can be overflowing with your own unique frequency of love. 

Though we wish everyone were operating from this place 100% of the time, we know this isn’t always the case. At times, you’re interacting with others whose cups are running low, or they’re needing help, or for their own reasons, they’re reaching into your cup to replenish theirs. 

A loving reminder

You are the only one who manages your cup. 

You are the only one who manages your energy. 

You are the only one who manages your time and how you spend it. 

You manage your thoughts. 

Though we are all sharing in all of these fields together, you, in your sovereignty, are ultimately the one who makes those decisions for your life. 

A relationship building exercise

As you think of your relationships, an exercise you could do is to write down 5 of those close relationships with people you saw frequently before quarantine started and who you anticipate seeing again once it eases. Your 5 people could be family members, friends, coworkers, or extended community. 

In particular, pick relationships where there’s something you want to improve. It could be a big improvement or a small improvement. 

You can think of those relationships in 3 main phases, Past, Present, Future:

Past: no longer exists

The 1st Phase is What Was but know that dynamic no longer exists. Considering how much quarantine has changed everyone, that previous dynamic is literally in the past and it’s done. 

Present: assessment 

The 2nd Phase is Assessment. Though you might still be interacting with some of those people, in the present, you have the opportunity to assess: 

“How is the energy balance between you and that other person? Were you giving too much?”

So many of us really loving beings are over-giving a lot of the time. And we’re the only ones who control that. We can’t fault other people if we choose to over-give.

A lot of the times, the reason you thought of those 5 people on your list is because you were over-giving or they were over-taking, or there was something that didn’t feel good. And that’s why they’re on your list right now. 

Future: envisioning best case scenario

The 3rd Phase is steps for how to manifest the best case scenario for the future. 

Before quarantine even fully lifts and you see them in person again, you have this beautiful opportunity now to already reset the new phase of that relationship. And you have the psychological space to do so from such a beautiful place now of love, compassion, and highest intentions. 

You can write down each of those names on a piece of paper. Next to each of them, write down: 

“What is best case scenario for how we both show up?” 

We can always look at everything in our lives through the lens of:

“What’s the highest vibration decision I can make?” 

Ask yourself in this two-way street:

“What can you do to improve your relationship? And what can the other person do to improve it?” 

Though you know you only have control over yourself, when you set the intention and you communicate with people in your life fairly, openly, and honestly, from a total place of love, trust and highest intentions, other people feel it. They will be ready to respond in different ways in their own time but this is one of the cases where if you have reflected on things, and you have seen these beautiful ways in which things can improve, you have the option to “Go First.” 

You could even start the communications now, while we’re in this quiet time of quarantine and while they also have this time. It could be as simple as reaching out and saying that you’ve been thinking about them and you’re looking forward to seeing them in person when the time is right and that you want to keep growing and improving your relationship. 

You can word it however feels right to you and is appropriate for that relationship. When you see them again, you want it to be mutually good; mutually beneficial and you’ll customize that message based on the nature of the relationship. 

You can set that intention now and plant those seeds while we have the time. 

Quarantine will be lifting soon and though no one wants it to last a minute longer than it is, there are so many gifts from this time, and this is one of them. So take it as an opportunity to improve your relationships even before you’re in person with people again. This time actually gives us the space to improve those relationships because if we hadn’t had this quantum pause, a lot of those relationships would have been Same Old, Same Old. And that’s not always a good thing. 

A calmer way of being

Even as our Guides were downloading these ideas to me, I felt such a calm in my front heart chakra. The whole field around my heart feels more calm and peaceful because of this loving intention. 

Beyond the 5 people that you think about — and it can certainly be more or less, depending on who comes to mind for you — or whether you don’t write anything down and are thinking about the intention of improving your relationships, setting that intention alone is enough because it’s a shift in your way of being. And only you choose that. 

Emerging from our caves

Our Guides showed a rather humorous and exaggerated, though not totally incorrect, image of a dark cave and humans emerging from it, with the sunlight blinding us. It’s an extreme analogy but it has its truth. Even for those of you who have been in your essential jobs still going to work in the same physical location, your interactions with the rest of your family and friends have been limited so you’re still feeling it. 

As quarantine is lifting in phases, we’ll be coming out of our dark caves, blinded by the sunshine, and we have a choice how we show up once we’re back out there. We can choose to show up in a more loving compassionate, peaceful, whole way. 

There are a lot of running jokes / memes about what it’s going to be like interacting with each other in person again. Sometimes people make fun of themselves about their physical state, by saying that they’ve gained weight, or that they’re nervous about what they’re going to wear in the outside world again. Some lament that they haven’t been exercising enough during quarantine or that their diet wasn’t as healthy as it could have been. Some people have been mildly poking fun at themselves; and others are having real anxiety about it. 

Those considerations about what people are wearing, and weight gain, are all the material realm — and it’s what we were all supposed to take a break from. 

What’s really going to matter is how people show up with their hearts: how we treat each other. 

That 5 or 10 pounds that some people are concerned about — when they’re walking around more, those will naturally shed. Your outfit can change in a few seconds, now as anytime. 

What matters when we come out of these caves and step out into the blinding sun again is that the radiance of our hearts match the blinding brilliance of the sun.

We Have All Changed as a Result of This Time — Most of Us for the Better

In this time, when we are oftentimes on our own physically, we feel the collective and the Oneness even more powerfully now than we did before quarantine started. Though we don’t have physical interaction, we are our own beautiful energy fields, and we are still interacting in each others’ energy fields at all times. 

All energy is constantly moving; constantly in motion. We always have these beautiful reminders that the more fluid we are in allowing everything to move through us, the more we have ease and trust in our lives — trusting in the divine flow of everything that is happening, even when, on the surface, it doesn’t seem as though it makes sense. 

It is a beautiful reminder for all of us to be clean, pure vessels who never hold onto anything. Oftentimes when we think of what we don’t want to hold onto, we usually think of things that we associate as negative. But the same is true even for the emotions and feelings that we associate as positive. 

Even love, that we want to feel all of the time, and is so beneficial — even that we are not holding onto. The love frequency is constantly in motion. We bring in the feeling and the frequency of love and we feel its nurturing, comforting vibrations in our being. We then share and radiate love out to others. When we share it with others, we are not holding onto it. 

Your Higher Soul is always loving, supporting, nurturing, and guiding you. It is the beautiful intelligent energy field, repository, of all of your memories across all of your lifetimes; across all timeline scenarios. Your Higher Soul knows everything about you and around you. And the more at the incarnated level you are able to tap in and be supported by that intelligent energy that wants the best for you, the more optimum and thriving your life is, and the greater your understanding of life here at the earthly level is. 

Your Higher Soul chose everything that is happening around you as the optimum conditions for your highest growth and the ways in which you can be your highest self to contribute and serve in this world. And though it can feel confusing at the human incarnated soul level at times, the more you are in that beautiful loving communion with your Higher Soul, the more you have context, and the more everything makes sense.

Your front heart chakra is the greatest energetic source of power within you and it is also that front line of interaction. It also can take on so much, which is part of why we have the beautiful reminder about helping energy flow and move, and not hold onto anything. Let all of the beautiful love you have for people flow with ease, through your heart, and let everything continue to support everyone in that beautiful cycle, like an infinity sign. 

It’s such a lovely reminder for all of us for how we want the experience of love to be a beautiful infinity sign, flowing right through my heart, into yours — and flowing right out of yours, into mine. And it keeps going in a beautiful infinity flow.

Among the many great lessons for us are feeling the beauty and connection that we all have together — something that it took this global health situation for us to be so specifically reminded of. As people have been expressing a range of emotions and reactions — at times, struggling with their own mental health — and striving to keep their physical health as strong as possible, we have also seen some of the highest actions of generosity, love, care, compassion; some of the highest collective actions of humanity. 

There are different rhythms of life that have been coming in, all of which have their gifts and purpose. 

The physical body is not comfortable all of the time. And so it is with ease that you can invite your own body to integrate all that is happening with ease; that you’re gentle with yourself. And at all times, for anything that you need, you ask your Guides for help. They are supporting you and transmitting to you 24 / 7. They are always listening. They never take any time off from supporting you. 

Our Guides are, in turn, are so lovingly supported. All of our Guides in their pure energy forms are also evolving through the energy realms. When they help us, that is part of their Service to Others and service to the universe. In that way, we needn’t feel guilty of “asking too much” of them.

Even after quarantine lifts, we’ll be easing back up to more movement. It won’t be overnight. When people are interacting in person more again, at our best, we treat each other with more care and compassion and tenderness — even to complete strangers. 

As the restlessness has set in for many, a common question is, “When can we get back to normal?” 

The answer is we’re not. 

And that’s not said in any kind of negative way. 

We have all changed as a result of this time — most of us for the better. And there will just be a level of care that will be happening from here on out. It was part of what needed to happen with this global reset button. 

Though it feels like this has been an “eternity” as we’re technically in the third calendar month of quarantine, when we look back on our lives — the whole spectrum of our lives — we’ll remember this time, but in context it will still just be a dot. 

Hopefully, we’ll remember the shift: We’ll remember how much we grew; how much we changed; how much we supported each other; and how much with reflection, when we’re looking back on all of this years from now, of how much better things are.

When we look at things as a whole — because we will all treat each other so much better — we will take care of ourselves more, and we will make this earth a more loving, compassionate, healthy, whole place. We’re doing it right now. 

Over the next few years, we’ll actively be in the global transition in behavior. And it’s not only the physical behavior of greater cleanliness, but that behavioral shift in our hearts; that behavioral shift in how we treat each other. 

We see a lot of the gifts of this time, in real time. 

The birds are chirping. And that is among the gifts of a lot of the silence and quietude that we have where we can hear the birds singing outside of our windows so much more now. 

We remember the green grass. It’s always with us. Some of you who have outdoor space that you can easily access, may be able to walk with your feet in the green grass or sit in the green grass. And if it is not easy for you to access outdoor areas, you have your memories; you have your thoughts. That is not said lightly because your thoughts literally create your entire experience of life. 

We all have more beautiful memories of green grass than we would even be able to physically count. All you need to do to bring the grounding sensations through your body and out through your feet again, are to draw upon your own very real, very visceral memories of the green grass and of walking in the earth. 

Perhaps the greatest gift of this time is that we have all learned to take nothing for granted. And that has been a painful lesson at times, but one that for everyone who not only survives but grows and thrives through this time — will take with us. 

When you’re able to get to the beach again, and able to feel the sand under your feet, how sweet it will be.

My Mother Taught Me How to Meditate ~ A Remembrance

A remembrance: My mother taught me how to meditate. She did it as an example as I’d notice her concentrating in perfect stillness, in trance, for long stretches of time. I spent much of my early childhood at her feet, reading the spiritual books on yoga and souls that she gave me. 

Her name was May, as she was named after her birth month. Both her and my grandmother’s birthdays were always around Mother’s Day, and so it was our family tradition to have a trifecta of celebrations, so they’d each get their own respective birthday celebrations, and then three or four generations of family would celebrate Mother’s Day together. My mom loved amethysts, lavender, soothing pastel colors, cats, nature, flowers, and playing soft classical music on the piano. She loved anything peaceful and tranquil. I always say I get all of my “fairyness” from her. 

My mother was born in the Stone Forest in China, in the middle of World War II. To survive invading armies, my grandparents, aunts, and mom, were constantly in motion. They fled from the cities — where people were easily spotted and slain — to the wilderness — and then back out to make a living. As they continued the cycles of fleeing, rebuilding, and migrating, my mom’s earliest years were bombings, sirens, and air raids. Her eldest sister recalled how my mom’s nervous system got fried from a childhood of war. 

My grandmother used to say that the family lost 20 years to war — the Chinese Civil War, the Japanese invasion, World War II, and the Communist takeover. My grandparents moved almost 60 times including within China, to neighboring countries, and finally the United States. It is no wonder that once my grandparents, aunts, and my mom received sponsorship to migrate to the United States at the end of the 1950s — my mom spent the rest of her life in the San Francisco Bay Area seeking peace, quiet, and refuge.

When I was born in California, the youngest of her three girls, she told me she knew, “This one’s different.” I was born into this incarnation with psychic access across space, time, and dimensions. I always credit my mom for accepting me unconditionally. She recognized my psychic abilities because she and my grandmother also had them. 

My mom and grandma would oftentimes hear clear messages, receive visions, or have clairvoyant dreams. Sometimes the information they received was literally life-saving for our family. There was the time our grandmother was outside getting food for her children, and clairaudiently heard a clear voice tell her, “Forget the oranges and get the children. The house is on fire.” She ran back and it was. A cooking fire someone was tending in the kitchen had erupted. Our grandmother was able to contain it and keep all of her children safe. She attributed the calm, steady, omniscient voice she heard as the voice of God. 

Almost 100 years later, I would clairaudiently hear a similarly steady voice while in meditation. I later recognized it as one of my Ascended Masters, Joseph, who said in my right ear, as clearly and audibly as though a person were physically there, “Your mother is going to pass very soon. You need to be in her apartment as much as physically possible to help her transition.” I felt the truth of his words in my body and in that moment, the mourning process began in my heart. 

I immediately booked a series of flights between Los Angeles and San Francisco to be able to visit my mother every weekend. People kept asking what was going on and I just said, “I have to be there for her right now.” 

It was during one of those visits that I found my mom peaceful at home, having finished this life exactly as she wished. She very well may have been meditating in her last incarnated moments, just as she taught me. 

In her pure energy form, my mother joined my grandmother as one of my most powerful and devoted Guides. It is because of them — and many other pure energy parents, grandparents, and great grandparents — that I have consistently seen and experienced the enduring nature of love across all space, time, and dimensions. 

I once had a client in his 50s whose birth mother had passed away shortly after he was born. She had already given him to loving adoptive parents and he never knew her. Throughout his life, he had wondered whether she loved him. When I began session with him, his birth mother was immediately present with a mixture of love and agony. She knew what a long road it had been for him, and requested of me that she be able to go into my arms and hands to transmit her unique loving energy signature frequency into him. She wanted to “reset” the foundation of his feeling loved and supported by her. I understood it was an emergency for both of them and so granted the permission. I discussed it with him afterward and he had felt her. He cried quietly with silent, peaceful, knowing.

Immediately after my mother became pure energy, I felt her as a warm gold orb over my right shoulder. While my sisters and I were cleaning out her apartment, our mom was right there in pure energy with me, speaking to me, and nudging my right arm as she instructed me to unearth treasures from the bottom of what looked like random junk drawers. Through my tears, I would laugh and say “Thank You, mommy,” knowing it was her and having the direct proof in the 3D in front of me. 

And in the days afterward, when none of my sisters nor I could find a copy of her will — though she had carefully given us all copies years prior — I was crying in frustration in my apartment and said aloud, “Mommy, I need your help. We need to find your will and I don’t know where to look. I know you gave it to me.” And then I waited for her response. I immediately felt a warm gold loving calm come over me and I stopped crying. I felt a nudge on my right arm to check in a pile of my old tax paperwork! There I saw one stack of white papers facing in together so that you could only see the blank backs and not the content. Clipped to it was her handwritten label with my name on it from years before — so I’d pay particular attention to it and know it was from her. With a sense of knowing, I opened up the papers, and it was everything we needed.

Even with this most direct connection, the loss of my mother from this earthly place sent me into the veil between life and death. It’s been a year and a half, and I do not think I’ll come back from it, as my planes of access have changed. 

I have accepted that this love that my mother, grandmother, and I have for each other across all space, time, and dimensions is the highest gift. And it makes me a bridge between life and death, uniting those who are still incarnated, and their loved ones who are pure energy. 

I feel much more love, not less. And I take nothing for granted. 

Every moment of our lives together is to be cherished. It is in incarnation that we do some of our greatest work for our own soul evolution, in service to others, and for this beautiful earth.

You are always fully connected with everyone you love and who loves you. 

Live that truth from your heart in every moment. 

Remember.

Leah Lau ~ Meditation Channeled Akashic Heart of a Child

Akashic Heart of a Child

Hello, everyone. I’m Leah Lau, energy healer and channel. I partnered with my wonderful musician friends, Jenny Deveau and Seth Misterka, of Dynasty Electrik, for a beautiful Full Moon Akashic Sound Bath for a large group of our friends in Venice, California. Here is the lovely message that came through.

“Remember you are the Heart of a Child.

The world was not created for you to feel suffering. 

It was created for you to feel joy. 

How easily in adult life and responsibilities it is to forget the joy you once knew. 

We invite you to remember. 

Remember in your heart. 

Remember in the joy of your loving hands.

Remember in the joy, of all of those who love you, right here. 

Too often, years can pass with a sense of waiting. 

Waiting for some imagined love. 

Waiting for some imagined success. 

Waiting for some imagined goal, or dream, or purpose. 

You have everything you need, right here. Right now. 

With the tender eyes of a child, look out into your world anew. 

See those around you the way a child would. 

Have that openness and tenderness in your heart. 

It is only by opening your heart and seeing with the eyes of a child, that you can fully recognize the divine perfection of your life right now. 

This time is so precious. With your whole heart, you can see the world as a rainbow kaleidoscope. 

It is every possibility. Everything the child version of you dreamed of and more. It is yours now.

No more waiting.

You love. Now. With everything in you. 

Trust in the divine flow of everything in your life.”

Merging Science and Spirituality in a Time of Quarantine

“What do the Guides say?” That’s the number 1 question I’ve been getting for weeks. 

The Guides — I work with about about 200+ of them, including Saints from many of our world religions, and many multidimensional beings from beyond our world, have the long view. They always do. 

Some questions the Guides dropped in with me before I led a group Akashic session, and that you can ask yourselves are:

1. How do you feel now?

2. How do you want to feel?

3. What do you want your life to look like when Quarantine lifts?

The Guides have shown me multiple, infinite golden timeline representations of scenarios on earth. They show this current timeline with the Covid pandemic about in the top 3/4 of earth timeline scenarios. The Guides don’t show me the pandemic happening in the lower timeline scenarios, so that in and of itself is indicative of its purpose for humanity in the long term. 

In looking at the pandemic among the higher timeline scenarios, we can look at it as the opportunity — as many already are — of massive, accelerated growth and leveling up recalibration of how we can evolve our mindsets, our health and self-care, our recognition and understanding of the Oneness of all of earth as one biological ecosystem together.

We have the opportunity now to merge science and spirituality, in ways both long forgotten, and uniquely anew. 

I have lived many lives within this incarnation. The universe called me to be public about being a Lightworker and of my open communications with spirit. I also spent the first four decades of this incarnation learning deeply about how many aspects of how this world works, through higher educational studies at the University of Chicago, UC Berkeley, and UCLA, and my work in business, global philanthropy, finance, technology, nonprofit, education, and government. I have also traveled to all seven continents and witnessed first-hand the long-term effects of extreme poverty in developing countries on people’s health, education, finances, and quality of life.

Among my higher education, though on paper it has been communications-focused, I have studied the sciences extensively. In courses in Advanced Biology, I also completed a year-long course in Pathobiology taught at the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine. It was during my undergraduate studies, but we went onsite to the Medical School for the faculty and facilities, including required lab time examining and having to handle autopsied human body parts in the Medical School Morgue so that we could see and understand with our own minds, eyes, and hands, the difference between healthy and diseased organs and tissues. 

My main motivation for taking the year-long, cumulative, sequence of Pathobiology was because the final quarter was dedicated to the molecular level of HIV. Growing up in the Bay Area and San Francisco during the 1980s and 1990s, when the AIDS epidemic was decimating the communities, I understood that we all need to operate with compassion, awareness, and education. 

Once I moved to Chicago for college, I also volunteered in the AIDS ward of Cook County Hospital, a public facility which served those most in need but without economic resources. In my adult life back in San Francisco, I served for many years, from 2005 - 2012, as an actively, fully engaged, Board Member at the UCSF Alliance Health Project, formerly the AIDS Health Project. 

And so it is through education, care, and direct service, that I have a deeper understanding of the molecular level of viruses than most. Not coincidentally, many medical advances long established in the health care for HIV — antiretrovirals and protease inhibitors — are being used as part of evolving treatment for Covid patients (confirmed per the World Health Organization). 

Which brings us to the current pandemic: This is also a time when we must put the health and well-being of our collective humanity above our own temporary wants and desires. Quarantine will end sooner than we realize though the Covid virus may continue various rounds in the coming months or years. 

This is but one of many biological pandemics to affect humanity, and we continue to learn, from a scientific perspective, about how we can take care of ourselves better and help keep others as safe as possible.

Remember, You are safe. You are safe. You are safe. And even if you looked at the current pandemic more deeply and how it affects you on an individual level, What is the worst case scenario? The physical body gets sick and this incarnation finishes? This is actually true of all of us at, every moment of every day, regardless of any pandemic or external circumstances. 

This time is also one in which many people are reflecting upon their mortality and reassessing every aspect of their lives, spiritual and health views, and life purpose.

You have the chance to reflect upon the evolution of your soul, or whether you believe you have a soul — a form of intelligent energy that lived before your physical body of animated hydrogen, oxygen, carbon, and nitrogen — and will live afterward — or whether you think the physical body is all you are. 

For anyone who has known a family member or friend who has passed away — and that’s most of us — many of us have had experiences of our loved ones continuing to speak to us, or appearing in our dreams with very current messages, or of them moving things around our homes to get our attention. 

As a psychic medium, I spend way more time in communication with spirit than I do with those who are in the body. That is more a reflection of how quickly, and on how many other dimensions, spirit can communicate than of my time interacting with people. I can be having a physical conversation with one person — and in that exact same amount of time, be in communication with 100+ spirits, or pure energy beings. 

You, me, we — are all way more than this physical human body that is visible. 

Something that is especially important to address is that there are some people who do not believe there is a biological public health pandemic even happening. Some have been in denial of the severity about it; or deliberately not keeping themselves informed, and have been operating from a place where they have not improved their own daily health care practices and behaviors. 

Meanwhile, there are others who have claimed that this is all a conspiracy; that viruses don’t exist; and that if the human body is healthy, it can never get sick or contract a virus. This is incorrect from a scientific, biological standpoint, from a core understanding of how the 3D earth operates at a physical level; how the human body currently operates; and it is a dangerous spread of misinformation. 

The majority of the current Covid health cases are mild, no worse in physical symptoms than allergies, a common cold, or sinus issues. Many people are also asymptomatic, meaning they exhibit no physical symptoms, though they might still be carrying a viral load, which determines contagion. This is not to downplay the severity and suffering of the many thousands who have had extreme cases and for those who passed away as a direct result; nor of the collective grieving and mourning processes for each of those lives. 

It is because each individual human body reacts uniquely that we, as a collective, when acting from a place of Service to Others, and not of Service to Self, must minimize contagion possibilities so that we can protect the most vulnerable among our populations, whether socio-economic, elderly, or those with pre-existing health conditions like asthma. 

Regardless of individual views on how susceptible any of us are to any particular physical ailment at any given time, this is a reminder for all of us to keep our own immune systems as strong as possible, to maximize thriving in our own lives, and safeguard the health of others. 

I focus on working from home during this time of Quarantine and, even after it lifts, will continue with the reinvigorated self care to keep my health at optimum levels. 

It is with blessings and loving hope that we all emerge from this time as the highest versions of ourselves — mind, body, heart and spirit. 

With all loving wishes for you all, may you be happy, healthy, and thriving — today and always.
