How Can I Help My Daughter Sleep Through The Night? (Part 2 of 3)

Note:     This is a lengthy question that Higgins is answering in segments. The first response was posted December 19, 2012 if you would like to read the question in its entirety.

Question:     How can I help my daughter sleep through the night? I realize I cannot do this for her, but perhaps there is some insight you can shed upon her intense anxiety. Am I doing the right thing by insisting that she sleep in her own bed? Am I doing the right thing by falling asleep with her at bedtime?

Higgins:     In the first segment of our response on how to help your daughter sleep through the night we suggested making a nighttime routine of exercising gently for just 10 minutes one hour before bedtime. We encourage all physicals to make this practice a habit until you depart your respective physical bodies.

Each of you is illuminated by a broader, non-physical aspect of yourself. We would not go so far as to describe you as a puppet yet without the flow of energy offered by this Broader Self you could not move or think.

This Broader you focuses energy right around your head and the energy flows towards the Earth in much the same way water flows downhill. Most of you do not understand that you are eternal beings with each their own source of illumination. A strong flow of energy is needed to feel good, safe and whole.

Throughout the Universe exists a matrix and all things flow along these lines. In a similar manner, each of you develops ties to all whom you come into contact with. Those who are primary in your life have stronger ties to you than mere acquaintances usually have.

The mother-child bond is typically extremely strong because the child is completely dependent for the first years of life. (The ties may be father-child or guardian-child.) As the child becomes confident in their place in the world around them they begin to draw more on their own energetic source and less on the parental ties.

What has happened for your daughter is that for whatever reason, likely she feels unstable in her home and/or school situation, she needs the extra energy you have been providing. When you decide you need space she will feel a distancing of that energetic bond and that creates anxiety simply because she is not drawing fully from her own energetic source.

We will insert here that you have helped create this energetic flow. As you heal emotionally and your own energy comes back into proper alignment you no longer need her energy but she still needs yours. (And by the way, healthy energetic bonds are desirable. A balanced parent-child bond is a lovely thing to nurture through the physical years. Healthy, balanced bonds allow energy to flow both ways in a sustainable, supportive manner.)

What you need to do next is help your daughter develop her own energetic flow. If she will sit with you before bedtime for a little meditation where you find a gentle way to instruct her on energetic flow and then the two of you practice together…that would be a wonderful step two. (Step one being the exercise routine.)

Another technique to practice is to envision her feeling confident. Envision her marching confidently off to bed by herself and you follow later to tuck her in and say good-night. That sort of envisioning will assist her if she is ready to grab onto that vibration.

Remember, you are creating an evening ritual that includes solid time together to exercise, read a sleepy-time book and perhaps meditate if she can. The one-on-one time will help her develop the confidence to branch out on her own. If evening time is spent in the same room but not together any energetic bolstering you offer will be weak and insufficient. We are not suggesting that every moment should be spent with your daughter. We are suggesting that you develop a 60 minute nightly routine that includes exercise, bedtime preparation, reading together time and meditative quiet time.

Bring a chair very close to the bed and sit there for the meditation rather than on the bed itself. If she needs you to fall asleep with her (as you’ve established this as a pattern) then go ahead and do that for a while.

Begin gently incorporating this evening ritual. Children readily understand things like energy flow so explain to her how energy flows and explain that she will feel stronger and better as she practices this each evening.

Again, practice this and we will offer the next step soon.

Musical Meditations

More Access to Higgins

Higgins produces amazing energy through me. We have been able to record that energy and musician Bill Wolford set it to music. Each energetic meditation assists the listener in achieving the energetic vibration of the piece. At  http://higginsandco.bandcamp.com we have a recording that contains three musical meditations; Harmonizing Vibrations, Raising Vibrations and Earthbliss Relaxation.

If you will sit in a relaxed way with (the best you are able) feet upon the floor, hands relaxed at your sides and eyes closed these meditations will assist you first in harmonizing with your surroundings. In other words, relaxing into your life just the way it is with all its warts and strange happy things. Then Raising Vibrations will help raise your energetic vibration to the highest it can achieve right now. Meaning, it may be higher one day and lower another day but always the best you can do at any given time.

In the Earthbliss Relaxation meditation Higgins works with the Earth itself to offer the energetic frequency that the Earth is moving to in the 2012 shift, or the Shift of the Ages. Listening to this one simply brings you into alignment with the new Earth Energy.

It’s very easy to meditate this way. Simply sit as described above and allow your own energy and the energy of Higgins to flow harmoniously through you. To allow energy to flow this way simply say you wish it to be so, either out loud or with your mind’s voice.

There are more such energetic meditations at Bill Wolford’s site, http://meditationvibrations.com.

If you are looking for more information from Higgins check out Higgins’ developing website, higginsandcompany.net.

We are not currently available for private sessions.

How Can I Help My Daughter Sleep Through The Night? (Part 1 of 3)

Note:     This is a lengthy question that Higgins will answer in segments.

Question:     Hello Cheryl & Higgins,

Thanks for your wonderful insights that have helped guide me through these turbulent times.

My question has to do with my eight year old daughter. Since she was a baby, I have either allowed her to sleep in my bed or I have fallen asleep with her in her bed. Now she expects this and when I need rest in my own bed, in my own space, she often protests by refusing to sleep. As a result she is experiencing anxiety, particularly at night.

I have tried my best to comfort her without anger and assure her that she is safe. But this week, as we draw near to 12/12/12 her anxiety has increased to an unbearable level and she says she is scared of ghosts. I have explained to her that she may be sensing the anxiety of the planet as we all move through this shift in consciousness, and that seems to help. Unfortunately as my sleep is interrupted I become a little selfish and I allow anger to flow, and I feel myself lose control. Of course this doesn’t help and I feel it creates a cycle where she is the victim and I the aggressor.

How can I help my daughter sleep through the night? I realize I cannot do this for her, but perhaps there is some insight you can shed upon her intense anxiety. Am I doing the right thing by insisting that she sleep in her own bed? Am I doing the right thing by falling asleep with her at bedtime?

Thank you.

Higgins:     To help your daughter sleep through the night let’s start with some very basic information regarding the body. The body conducts energy from your Broader Being all day every day. Sometimes this energy gets pent up inside and comes out as negative behavior, anxiety, illness and other negative expressions like inability to sleep.

We suggest you initiate a new pattern before bedtime. About one hour before heading to bed find a fun way for the two of you to exercise together. Only 10 or 15 minutes of gentle exercise will help release that stuck energy in both of you.

Encourage exercise that includes both upper and lower portions of your body and some gentle stretching. For example, take a walk around the block and while walking raise the arms up and down. Every so often stop to touch toes and stretch up to the stars.

If going outside is not feasible then march in place and do some push ups. Then do some stretching, too.

Avoid running and jumping jacks or other things that greatly stimulate the heart. The idea is to stimulate energetic flow and release energy but not to create extra energy as cardiovascular exercise will do. (Save that for a 10 or 15 minute morning routine that will help with daytime behavior.)

(Really what we mean is to find a fun and accessible equivalent to these ideas.)

This will help to immediately release some of the anxiety she carries into the sleep time.

We will discuss a more metaphysical aspect to help your daughter sleep with our next response but this is the best place to start. Do not try to change anything else for now, just add 10 minutes of gentle exercise one hour before bedtime.

Take Advantage of the Energies Circulating at this Time

Question:     Yeah… Does Higgins have any advice as far as taking advantage of the energies during this time?  Do they see any significance from their persepective or is it all our own making mountains out of mole hills?  🙂    just curious if you’d asked them.

Higgins:     Absolutely take advantage of the energies circulating at ‘this time’. Let us clarify that ‘at this time’ refers to current planetary alignments, moon phases, etc… in addition to the general energetic shift occurring that is variously being called the Shift of the Ages, the End of the World, or generically 2012 and specifically December 21, 2012.

The whole point, in essence, of this Shift of the Ages is to stimulate you physicals towards a reconnection with your eternal spirit.

The ‘energies right now’ are likely appearing as mental and physical urges.

Our advice is to listen to those pressing urges that say, “This _______________ (whatever It is) is not right for me. I know in my very core that something is wrong with this and I am going to begin right now making changes. While perhaps my brain right now cannot clearly name what is right, this is wrong, and I will begin making changes in myself. Surely, if I make small changes in myself that feel more right than this does then I will eventually become clear about who I choose to be (and more importantly how I choose to be) in the world.”

If your pressing urges tell you this (whatever It is) is right for me then we encourage you to follow-up on that.

Mankind is in a sorting process right now. The energetic offerings stimulate desire to return to something unnamed. As a whole, and as unique individuals, mankind is deciphering who they are and who they wish to become. Pay attention to current events to find out who you are not and from there you will discover who you are.

To answer the further part of your question, are you physicals making mountains out of mole hills, certainly not.

The vibrational shift within the Earth that is the Shift of the Ages is forcing mankind to choose. The difficulty is there really are no clear directions for what is happening available to the masses. This energetic shift causes great distress for some because they do not understand the possible choices.

What you see playing out as a result of this tremendous energetic turmoil is shootings, bombings, fighting, domestic violence, financial disharmony, hunger…we can go on and on. What we’d like you to understand is this energetic turmoil is forcing you to make a choice. Will you choose to seek harmony within yourself or will you not?

If you will not choose the path that leads to inner harmony (life)  then by default you choose disharmony. Disharmony leads to death whether literal or metaphorical. While this sounds dramatic this teaching is the core at the Shift of the Ages.

If we gave only one clue as to how life works we’d tell you to seek inner harmony. All else will follow.

Why Doesn’t My Wife Like Me?

Question:     Why doesn’t my wife like me?

Higgins:   People are drawn together or pushed apart in much the same way two magnets when matched up will pull themselves together or push themselves apart depending on which side of the magnets are facing.

When you and your wife came together you were exhibiting like vibrations in some way and these vibrations pulled you towards one another. This is easy to understand because when dating, each of you is looking at and concentrating on all the nice things about the other person. Once familiarity sets in it is easy to begin noticing the not so nice things.

Whatever a person concentrates upon, that is the point of attraction so if your wife concentrates on the nice things about you she draws you to her. If however, she concentrates on the not so nice things then she metaphorically flips the magnet over and then, by the laws of the Universe, she begins to repel you.

The Universal Law that both draws things together and repels them from one another is completely impartial. It is much like a computer: the computer can only do what it is programmed to do and whether you get the response you want or you don’t get the response you want makes no difference to the computer.

Since the Universal Law is completely impartial it can only do what you tell it to do and you give directions based on the emotions you emit. The Universal responses to the emotions you emit are exquisitely designed and timed just for you regardless of whether the data you entered is what you intended to enter.

At the time you and your wife came together you were emitting a frequency that was equal to the frequency she emitted so you drew together like magnets. The desires and interests of humans continually evolve. Humans seek growth so it is understandable that the frequency you both emitted then may have changed over time. In everyday life this means that the thoughts and emotions your wife carries are no longer in harmony with the thoughts and emotions you carry. Often we hear this described as ‘growing apart’ and this is a very apt description.

In order to grow together again simply seek the same frequency. Some people reconnect by finding common interests. We encourage you to start with something more basic.

First, find something to like about your wife everyday and quietly and discreetly admire that thing for a few moments.

Second, hold your own energy stable regardless of whether she is liking or disliking you in any given moment. Hold your energy stable by directing your energy to flow from just above the head to just below the feet. Ask your energy to flow in harmony with a pleasurable life experience. It will. It will also shift and change relative to your thoughts and emotions all day long so realign as often as needed throughout the day.

Stabilizing one’s energy is important because whether humans are aware or not, they feel the energy emitted by others and respond to it. When you stop emitting a vibration that says, ‘My wife doesn’t like me,’ she will not be so drawn to act as though she doesn’t like you.

These two things will help to stabilize your relationship. If you can find common ground once again then the relationship can continue to grow. Sometimes, the emotional point of attraction that each of you emitted when you came together has changed so much that it is impossible to find common ground and the relationship continues to crumble.

Either way, you will have developed clarity regarding relationships. If you will practice remaining energetically stable while enjoying life as it currently is you will enter clearer data into the Universal computer thus drawing towards you an enjoyable life on all levels, including a more  harmonious relationship, whether with your current wife or someone else.

What To Do When Your Husband Is Not Compassionate

Question:     The question surrounds what to do when your husband is not compassionate.

Higgins:     The quality and happiness filling your life has nothing to do with your husband. You are the only person creating your life experience and while it is nice when others make it easy for you by behaving the way you want them to, in the end you and only you create your life.

In this instance if your husband would display compassion his compassion would  help you feel better simply because you would not have to work so hard to maintain your own energetic integrity. However, you cannot control his responses so you must control your own.

We suggest that when another does not respond the way you wish them to, consider your own part in the play. Likely you are pretending to be some kind of victim and want others to agree so you can feel better. But you are not a victim. If you are not a victim (and none ever are) then there is a solution. The solution, the answer,  is always available from within yourself and always within your power to accomplish.

If upon review of the situation you discover that your husband may have done well to exhibit compassion in that instance then the solution (again entirely within your power) is for you yourself to exhibit compassion for your husband, a beautiful, gracious, kind, loving soul who has lost his ability to feel and express compassion.

We encourage you to see this as a growth opportunity and embrace it as such.

YOU–(Reposted for December 2012)

 

The following is a synopsis of Higgins’ Manual on Physical Existence and this is who Higgins thinks you are:

You

The most magnificent vision you have of yourself is Truth.
And regardless of apparent physical or mental inequalities each of you is capable of creating a life that you enjoy; a life that includes satisfying relationships, good health, prosperity and daily activities that are entertaining and fulfilling.
Life is designed to be a pleasant adventure and the body is capable of performing smoothly and without fail until the day that you decide you are complete here and slip out of your body easily, without pain and without fuss.
All that you are continuously guides you towards expression of the Truth of who You are.
So make the decision to live in harmony with your Truth.
Then remain at peace with your emotions no matter how uncomfortable they may seem because how you respond to the life experience that arrives today dictates what your future will bring.
Practice actively listening for internal guidance. Then follow up on that information immediately. Impulses stimulate you to action and when you are clear about living in harmony with your Truth your impulses will always lead you towards joy.
Focus upon what you want, think about that which you enjoy, talk about things that bring you a feeling of happiness, commit actions that bring you closer to those things you value.
It is in this that satisfaction lies for in all cases what you focus upon manifests itself literally or metaphorically sooner or later.
There is nothing that you can think up that cannot be achieved.
So follow your heart’s desire and enjoy the journey.

Finding a Word to Define Your Life

Offering from Higgins:

The Earth is changing. It has been changing for some time now and will continue to change for many more years. To minimize discomfort and maximize opportunity during this transition we recommend you find a word to define your life and live into it.

Each of you will find life flowing more smoothly if you will choose a heart based word that defines the person you are or want to be and then live that word. We use the term heart-word to describe a word that comes from inside yourself. It is a word that comes forth when the mind is relaxed and receptive. It will resonate with you in a way that other words do not, although the difference may be subtle.

The chosen word will define your life so when asking your Broader Being to share this heart-word first be certain your intention is pure. Then ask for the word. Statements such as, “What word defines the truth of my physical existence?” will bring good, clear responses.

I Need My Wife To Stay With Me

Question:     I need my wife to stay with me.

Higgins:     We would like to respond to this comment.

I need my wife to stay with me and I want my wife to stay with me are two vastly different comments.

The word want in this context indicates desire and preference while the word need indicates powerless lack.

Not one among you is powerless. Physicals are extremely powerful. So powerful, in fact, that you have literally created the world around you. Another way to view that is to realize you have created your every day life.

No matter  how impossible your situation may seem right now, each of you has the power to change life for the better. If life is already terrific, rejoice, for it gets even better. All any of you ever has to do to improve life is to choose to create a happy and fulfilling life.

To have a happy and fulfilling life you do not need your wife. You may want your wife but we remind you that want is different from need. As long as you think you need your wife you create the possibility of no wife. When you want a thing you also create the possibility of not having the thing but with less intensity.

Before we continue we need to be clear that you do not have the power to create any life but your own so if your wife is hell-bent on creating a life without you in it she is going to.

Let’s do some explaining.

When you emit a continual emotion/vibration of need relative to your wife you create a sort of energetic suction that tugs and chips away at your wife’s energy. In effect, you are exhausting for her to be around even when you’re not around.

In order for her to maintain a sort of energetic stability she will likely resort to angry outbursts even when you have done nothing outward to deserve it. (You physicals never deserve poor treatment from anyone and we would not tolerate it. We would either get out of the situation or better, clean up our vibrational offering so as not to draw the negativity in the first place.)

If you will stabilize your personal energetic output then she will be better able to stabilize hers.

We suggest you start a regular habit of directing your own energy to flow through you from roughly just above the head to roughly just below the feet. Do this every time you feel that need arising within you. Every time you ‘need’ your wife you are sucking her energy away.

In some instances the emotion of need produces positive emotion in the needed recipient (like when a baby needs to be breast-fed) but not in this case. This particular type of need is exhausting to the recipient. Stabilize your energy to stabilize your relationship.

Practice this often for a few days. Then, when you feel ready, try this: immediately after directing your energy to flow through you head to foot you will feel a little stronger and more stable. When you feel that strength return think of one thing you really like about your wife.

While this may seem small and insignificant relative to the overall picture life may present right now it is not. This is a powerful and effective method of stabilization.

As your home life stabilizes begin envisioning happy and cooperative interactions between you, your wife and any others living within the household. There is no need to expend effort to make these happy visions play out. That is like putting a seed in the ground and then trying to force it to sprout. It is impossible to force a seed to sprout and in the same way it is impossible for you to make happy interactions occur between you and your wife. All you can do is provide fertile soil (pleasant energy) and water that soil with nice thoughts. Then when you plant the seed of happy visions they will have a chance to grow.

What Blessings Are

Question:     What is a blessing and what is it supposed to do?

Higgins:    Two things to understand first:

1)  You are beings of light energy. Energy emits a vibrational frequency. When you (the soul being) enter your body the body vibrates at the frequency that is specifically you. Your special energy tells everyone everywhere that you are you. In addition to emitting a special ‘me’ energy each of you also offers a continual vibration relative to everything going on around you. This vibration comes to you and through you from your broader, eternal Self.

This Eternal Self knows what your goals are and via these vibrations (experienced as emotions) guides you through life so you always know exactly what is right for you and what is not right for you.

Negative vibration (emotion) if maintained draws negative life experience. Positive emotion when maintained will draw positive life experience.

2)  It is very easy in the Earth realm to shift the vibration of things around you. (Holding your own energetic Truth regardless of what is going on around you is one of the things you came here to perfect.) For example, speaking kindly to a plant will promote a positive vibration and the plant will thrive. Water can be altered, too. Speak kindly or speak harshly…the water molecules will shift accordingly.

To envision this imagine a person who has just been scolded: often their shoulders slump and the head drops forward. Water responds the same. All things respond this way to some degree.

A blessing is an invocation of positive energy. A blessing may be bestowed upon people or things.

The point of the blessing is to create a positive vibration within the blessed object that will then result in positive vibrational emissions from that object. Whether the blessed object is a person or a building the effect is the same: it creates a positive creative environment.
