Reflecting on the fogginess, then clarity, this meditation goes into forgiveness – forgiveness of self and others! Enjoy! Resources: Forgiveness Journal by Erica Glessing (a blank sketch journal with forgiveness prompts): https://amzn.to/4ibGls0 Transcript (more or less)... Hello, I'm loving some interesting clearings that I'm embarking upon myself this week. It's very fascinating and powerful. As I was reflecting, it was really foggy this morning where I live. There was this kind of eerie fogginess right at dawn, when the light comes in, all drenched in fog. It's interesting to me when fog obscures vision, when we're blocked from seeing things because of the dense fog. Yet there's an awareness that the sun is going to break through. Well, I'm in California, so the sun always breaks through. And the fog will lift, and we'll be able to see clearly. I was just kind of looking at that way of how life brings us sort of fogginess and then clarity, then fogginess and then clarity. One of my favorite things to do in the morning is, after I'm done with my gratitudes (because I always do my gratitudes), I say, "Could you send me an epiphany today?" and I kind of just send it out into the universe, to God or All That Is. And I say, "Come with an epiphany today." My epiphany this morning was—I don't think "brutal" is the appropriate word, but it approaches deeply challenging, shall I say. It was all around forgiveness - so here is a guided forgiveness meditation as a gift to you (and to myself!). You're joining me here on Energy Clearing for Life. This is Erica. I built this show as a self-meditation. So we're going to walk through forgiveness today. As I was clearing things and releasing regrets from my past choices, it was really interesting to me to take responsibility for choices that ended up maybe in very clashing, painful experiences—or being married to an icky person. Well, me and Narcissus, let's just call it what it was. Let's look at the ways in which we can heal and we can forgive. It's funny, I did a whole class on forgiveness in 2012. It was so powerful. I went through how to forgive easily first to build your forgiveness strength. Then I created a forgiveness journal, which is available on Amazon. In it, I put little prompts—it's like a sketchbook journal—and I put little prompts to help facilitate forgiveness. On the cover of my forgiveness journal, I put an infinity symbol, which I felt was very beautiful. I did it in a dark blue, starry night color. I really had fun building that forgiveness journal. I believe sometimes these podcasts and my writing are partly my own higher self educating me and then educating all of you. Maybe "educating" is the wrong word—sort of gently working collaboratively with your energy to help you be the best and brightest you that you can be. This month—or you may listen to this out of sync—but this month is really showing us in 2025 that it's time to express ourselves and shine our brightest light. That's really coming through strongly in all the messages I'm seeing from all the star seeds and sort of higher consciousness individuals I know on the planet. Pretty much I'm hearing collectively: it's time to shine our light brightly. I'm going to go into a meditation with you on forgiveness. Just give yourself the next seven or eight minutes. See if you can find somewhere quiet or private where you can close your eyes. See if you can just breathe. At the core of forgiveness, there's a release of any kind of victim consciousness. So we want to just own our choices and say, "I made choices. I forgive myself for choices I made that caused such challenges in my life." Wow, that was pretty big. "I forgive myself for surrounding myself with people who couldn't see my light." Yeah, I feel better after that. Now let's breathe energy up through the earth, through the balls of our feet. Nice, through our knees. Just breathe blue energy up, up through the base of your spine. Now your second chakra—that's money, creativity, and sexuality. Let's just go ahead and breathe orange energy through there, or light orange tangerine. Now let's go ahead and breathe special warm healing light to our solar plexus chakra area. Then go ahead and breathe green light through our heart chakra. Just forgive yourself again in the heart area for any choices that led to painful experiences. Often our parents were choices that led to some painful experiences that we at some level chose so we could grow. Just forgive yourself for choosing various individuals. I had a nefarious individual in my life who was my editor in Santa Barbara where I used to live. That was really interesting. I was still working on forgiveness, and I found out he passed away. It was so fascinating to me that I had somehow carried forth his criticisms of me and let them embed and hurt my heart. And he was long gone from the planet, right? I gave him a big forgiveness for that a while back, to heal my own heart. For anyone who's kind of stuck it to you or been particularly unkind to you, go ahead and just send forgiveness to that experience. Nice. Now let's go up into our throat chakra and just release any of the times that people didn't want you to talk. So many cultures have this feminine thing where women were not supposed to say anything. Children were not supposed to say anything. "Be seen and not heard." Is that crazy? Go ahead—this is crossing so many cultures, and I've met with so many different people from Chinese descent, Indian descent, Mexican descent, all different backgrounds, Irish Catholic descent—children (especially girls) who were not supposed to be heard. Forgive anyone around you who told you to shut up or who just didn't want to hear you, right? Just release that. Nice. And by forgiving those who have dimmed your light and forgiving them, what happens is you heal so your heart and your throat chakra open up, and you can accept more love again and be receiving of money and receiving of joy and receiving of delight or this zest for life. So nice. Now we want to go up into our third eye, and this is where we receive telepathic communications, should we desire that. It's the place between our eyebrows, and it usually operates in violet. Let's just go ahead and run energy through there. If you have to go somewhere where there are a lot of lower consciousness experiences—like maybe LAX, maybe standing in line at the Dollar Tree, or maybe standing in line at the grocery store—and you can't really control all the different beings that are there, you could be standing next to a mom who's just lashing out at her children. It could just wreck your whole day, maybe if you were an empath and just kind of went into all what they were suffering about and what they were having such a hard time with. Now go ahead and look at the top of your crown and up. This is generally a white layer. Some people choose it to be gold, though. So white or gold—whatever works for you—and connect to celestial. If you believe in this view, ask for forgiveness from Source for everything you've chosen that has kind of led you astray. We all go astray and then we get back on. Then we go astray and then we get back on. It's human. It's how we are—being our humanness is going astray and then coming back on course. Very nice. So go ahead and just accept love from the heavens all around you. Now just go ahead and ask for the 7-15th Merkaba genetic chakras. These go above your head and below your feet and to the sides. Go ahead and just ask for healing for all of that from heaven, and then also pull blue earth energy up too. About a foot around your body, or 18 inches, just see your aura healing from the places where you couldn't forgive. Forgive yourself for times that you couldn't get neutral, you just had to be triggered. This might represent very old karmic ties. If it's super challenging to get to forgiveness, there could be multiple lifetimes of stuff that you've chosen to go through with that individual. Or there could be a lesson inside of that trigger. What you can do is say, "Thank you for the teachings. I love the teachings, and I'd like to release the trigger." So I'd like not to get emotionally charged, but I would like to still really get clear what the learnings are. Forgiveness can happen sometimes when you let go of needing to even understand why. It's like you say, "Yes, I understand I'm learning from this. Thank you for the learnings. And I'm ready to release my trigger." Now forgive yourself for those moments of being triggered, which some of them are etched. My kids and I have learned to say, "I'm being triggered. Let's be quiet for a minute and let go of the trigger and then talk in a few minutes," instead of sort of screaming at each other, you know. Nice. I'm being shown to ask for one more thing in this sort of meditation. Put something that you've been desiring in front of your body, about a foot away. So it's not in your body. This could be your coaching business or your books that you've written, or maybe it's plans to go on a vacation, or something you've been desiring to have but don't have yet. It's something like an unfulfilled desire. If you're comfortable with it, put it about 18 inches in front of you and kind of see it in a ball. See that thing that you've been asking for in a ball. Just send energy to that ball. For me, it's going to be Happy Publishing LLC —my book publishing company would like to grow. So I'm going to put that in a ball about a foot in front of me and just send energy to it. For you, what is it? Maybe it's a new place to live, or maybe it's career insight, or maybe you'd like to start your own meditation podcast. Put whatever that desire is in front of you and just kind of allow it to be. Then see if it has any messages for you. Nice. Very good. Now just kind of come back to center, open your eyes. Have a most amazing day and maybe ask for another opportunity—some new insight into your own soul's desires for you on the planet. And what's happening in 2025 is the shine, right? That's the 2025 message. So don't be afraid.

Dear Mr. President,Re: Tariffs on China? A Tax on the PoorApplying a 125% tariff on China in response to their retaliatory trade actions, the true casualties will not be foreign economies—but America's poor.Tariffs are taxes. When levied on the low-cost goods that supply Family Dollar, Dollar Tree, and corner shops across the country, these taxes become a burden carried disproportionately by low-income Americans. These retail outlets serve a vital role in our domestic landscape, offering basic goods to communities that big-box retailers like Acme overlook.Acme is not coming to the hood. And these low-wage communities—often ignored in economic planning—are not disappearing. Tariff increases mean the small shops that serve them will face higher wholesale prices and inevitably pass those costs on to customers already stretched thin.This is not just a trade issue—it's a domestic economic justice issue.If we are serious about insulating our most vulnerable from economic shocks, we must diversify our own production. America needs industries that specialize in affordable goods, serving what I call “economies within the economy.” Without that, tariff policies will continue to harm those least able to weather them. If Trump places a 125% tariff on China in response to their retaliatory tariff, then it means poor people in the U.S. are being taxed. And what of economies of scale? Sure, the goods are cheap, but not everyone can buy at Acme. Some go to Family Dollar, Dollar Tree, and the corner shop. These stores can afford to charge low prices because they access cheap goods that serve low-wage communities.Low-wage communities aren't changing anytime soon, so how will they survive this tax if their main suppliers are taxed? Acme's not coming to the hoods—they don't thrive there.Unless we have cheaply made goods in the U.S. that serve a particular economy, these communities will be left out. But that means the U.S. must diversify and include specializations that provide affordable goods tailored to certain “economies.”Rev.

Here are 3 big things you need to know— One — U.S. stock futures sank as President Donald Trump unveiled sweeping tariffs of at least 10% and even higher for some countries. Shares of Nike and Apple each dropped about 7%. Big sellers of imported goods were among the hardest hit. Five Below lost 14%, Dollar Tree tumbled 11% and Gap plunged 8.5%. Two ---- The Michigan Supreme Court has ruled the odor of marijuana alone isn't a sufficient reason for police to search a car without a warrant. In a 5-1 opinion, the court threw out gun charges against a man whose car was searched in Detroit in 2020. Voters in 2018 legalized the possession and use of small amounts of marijuana by people who are at least 21 years old, though it cannot be used inside a vehicle. And number three — TikTok may have found a buyer. The New York Times reports Amazon has submitted a bid via office letter to Vice President Vance as well as commerce secretary Howard Lutnick. The deadline for China-based ByteDance to sell TikTok is Saturday or it will be banned.
Co-hosts Michael LeBlanc and Steve Dennis return from ShopTalk brimming with insights on the rapidly shifting retail environment. They kick off by breaking down the rollercoaster of consumer confidence, spurred by persistent inflation and ongoing uncertainty. The conversation touches on potential reverberations from looming tariffs that could drive up costs and shake consumer sentiment. Headlines from major brands paint a mixed picture: Lululemon's cautious optimism contrasts with H&M's ongoing struggle to redefine its place in fast fashion, while Dollar Tree's dramatic divestment of Family Dollar underscores the perils of poorly integrated acquisitions. Meanwhile, Chewy's robust earnings provide a bright spot.Also fueling industry chatter is the arrival of French department store Printemps in Lower Manhattan, sparking excitement among those who see it as a bold venture amid broader department store decline. The conversation pivots to Canada's retail landscape, where Hudson's Bay's long-anticipated liquidation underscores the challenges legacy retailers face in a hyper-competitive era. The second half of the show features a conversation with Lowe's SVP Product and Technology, Data and AI, Chandhu Nair, who outlines the home improvement retailer's sweeping digital transformation. Aware that their category historically lagged in technology adoption, Lowe's has accelerated its efforts, focusing on delivering customer-centric solutions while modernizing decades-old infrastructure. With the newly launched MyLow application, shoppers can receive instant project advice, seamless product recommendations, and integrated how-to guidance. For professionals, speed, in-stock reliability, and tailored credit remain top priorities.Nair emphasizes that data and AI make up only 30% of the equation, with the remaining 70% tied to organizational change and process reengineering. The discussion highlights Lowe's approach to fostering innovation: start small, iterate quickly, and focus on core customer needs rather than novelty for novelty's sake. In addition, immersive experiences such as the Lowe's Style Studio for Apple Vision Pro build on years of research and strategic experimentation. By proactively partnering with leading tech companies and harnessing new capabilities like generative AI, Lowe's aims to stand out in a competitive retail market. Ultimately, Nair's insights underscore a cultural shift where failing responsibly is integral to success, and where the ability to adapt quickly defines a retailer's future.

Monday inspired hope for bulls with a strong rally that faded during the week, culminating in Friday's even stronger sell-off. Two big culprits behind the selling action: continued weakness in the A.I. trade, and 25% auto tariffs announced by the Trump administration. Signs of consumer pressure showed in the latest retail earnings through Dollar Tree's (DLTR) rally and Lululemon's (LULU) sell-off. Oliver Renick turns to the week's biggest stories.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about
En nuestro radar de hoy aparece una de las mayores cadenas de Estados Unidos que está en su peor momento: Dollar Tree. La compañía, después de unos muy malos resultados, ha tenido que vender su negocio Family Dollar a los fondos Brigade Capital Management y Macellum Capital Management por 1.007 millones de dólares. Puede parecer una cantidad cuantiosa, pero nada más lejos de la realidad. Y es que en 2015 la empresa se hizo con Family Dollar por 9.000 millones de dólares. 8 mil millones menos que terminan con la venta de un negocio por el que Family Dollar fue apostando cada vez menos en 2024. La compañía decidió clausurar 600 tiendas y apostar por la nueva apertura de 300 nuevos locales en 2025. ¿Cuáles fueron los resultados de su división el año pasado? Creedon, que indicó que las cuentas de Family Dollar se reportan como operaciones discontinuadas, reportó en la conferencia para analistas que las operaciones discontinuadas disminuyeron un 11,2% hasta los 3.300 millones de dólares. Aunque es verdad que el rendimiento de las operaciones continuadas fue un poco plano, con un ligero aumento del 0,7%, otros problemas han sacudido a Family Dollar. En febrero, la cadena de tiendas tuvo que pagar 41 millones de dólares después de que en un centro de distribución hubiera una infestación de ratas. Debido al peligro sanitario que supuso, el Departamento de Justicia indicó que el castigo fue “la sanción penal monetaria más grande jamás realizada en un caso de seguridad alimentaria”. ¿Qué camino le espera ahora a Dollar Tree? Para Mike Creedon, una de las claves para el futuro de la compañía es volver a los orígenes. ¿Pero qué hace especial a Dollar Tree? Para Associated Press, una de las claves es que “las tiendas se encuentran principalmente en zonas urbanas desatendidas. Los cierres de tiendas actuales, probablemente tendrán un impacto considerable en los clientes que viven en esas zonas”. Para Marshal Cohen, asesor principal de la industria en Circana, firma de investigación consultada por el medio, el acceso a bienes esenciales y asequibles puede volverse más difícil para las familias de bajos ingresos si cierran estas tiendas. Dollar Tree es una cadena de tiendas de descuento fundada en 1953, por el empresario KR Perry. En 1986 se llamó only one dollar y ya en 1993 pasó a nombrarse con la nomenclatura actual. Forma parte de la lista Fortune 500 y opera en más 15.000 tiendas en los 48 estados contiguos de EE. UU. y Canadá .

Arun Sundaram provides his two cents for Dollar Tree's (DLTR) deal to unload Family Dollar for $1B. The company previously acquired it for $9B in 2015, which Arun says might be one of the "worst retail acquisitions" in recent history. He says Walmart (WMT) is the biggest thorn in the sides of discount retailers like DLTR and Dollar General (DG).======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Dollar Tree will sell its Family Dollar store brand, Target employees will have lighter bonuses, and 7-Eleven is teaming up with Arizona beverages.
Dollar Tree sold its Family Dollar chain to Brigade Capital Management and Macellum Capital Management for over $1 billion, marking a shift to private ownership. The sale is set to close in the upcoming quarter, separating Family Dollar from the public Dollar Tree company. Dollar Tree acquired Family Dollar for $8.81 billion a decade ago but encountered challenges in integrating the two businesses. Analysts point out that Dollar Tree and Family Dollar serve different markets: Dollar Tree operates mainly in suburban areas while Family Dollar focuses on urban regions. Family Dollar faced issues including inflation and theft, struggling to compete with larger retailers like Walmart and Amazon. In light of financial difficulties, Dollar Tree planned to close around 1,000 underperforming Family Dollar stores. The previous year brought significant financial losses and a fine from the U.S. Justice Department for food safety violations.Learn more on this news visit us at: https://greyjournal.net/news/ Hosted on Acast.

Die Nachrichtenlage ist seit dem gestrigen Closing ausgesprochen dünn, mit nur wenigen Highlights. Barclays senkt aufgrund der Unsicherheit verursacht durch die US-Zollpolitik das Jahresendziel für den S&P 500 von 6600 auf 5900 Punkte. Das Niveau liegt unwesentlich über dem aktuellen Niveau. Am kommenden Mittwoch werden die Reziproken-Zölle verkündet. Goldman Sachs hatte diese Woche gemahnt, dass die Wall Street eine möglicherweise zu optimistische Haltung hat, und entsprechend enttäuscht werden könnte. Die seit gestern Abend gemeldeten Ergebnisse spielen für den breiten Markt keine besonders wichtige Rolle. Die Aktien von Chewy und Dollar Tree tendieren nach den Zahlen freundlich.
