Everybody and everything in your life is merely responding according to who you are being and how you are showing up. Isn't that an amazing news? It means that you don't need to change anything or anybody to improve your life. You just need to change yourself, and everything and everyone will change accordingly. Journal prompts:How are you treating your life? (e.g., lovingly, haphazardly, grudgingly, etc.)What areas in your life do you want to see changes?

Happy New Year!Well, the new year is off to an eventful start. The apocalypse (uncovering, disclosure, revelation) will continue in 2024. That means your external world will be chaotic and unstable. And if you focus on it, your internal world also becomes chaotic and unstable.The most important thing for us to remember as we go through this year is to bring our energy back from the external world into our internal world and raise its frequency. Now, this takes work. It is a moment by moment practice. And one of the most powerful and potent ways to raise your own frequency that I know is through meditation!Ways to connect with Masako:Let's meditate together on InsightTimer!Why not meditate?

So when you change yourself, the reflection will also change accordingly. Because.... everything is energy. Our thoughts, words, and emotions carry a certain frequency, which resonate with those in a similar frequency. So, inevitably, like attracts like. In life, you don't attract what you desire. You attract what you believe and embody. In this episode, a seeker, Irene Pimentel, shares her spiritual journey, which began at the age of four. Throughout her life, Irene had always felt the need in wanting to help people, but she didn't know how or in what capacity... until she decided to leave her 30+ year career in finance and started following her curiosity in spirituality, meditation, energy work, and subconscious mind healing.
