Lovely said,
Be okay with being the receiver.
That is your natural state.
Giving and receiving is the same.
Don't feel forced to give.
I'm Sunny T.
Connor and you are listening to Trapped in the Illusion.
Who the heck is Lovely?
Lovely is my higher self that I tune into through meditation.
She is one of the many ways that I get released from the illusion of life.
Yes,
Life is one big illusion.
I hope you stick around for a moment to raise your vibration.
So during my meditation when Lovely came to me and said,
It's okay for me to be the receiver.
It's okay for you to be the receiver.
And like really think about that because I'm always given and I feel like I have to work to receive sometimes.
You know,
I feel like I have to put a lot of effort into receiving.
And so when she came to me and she said,
It's okay to be the receiver.
It's okay to accept what is naturally yours.
Anything that exists in this reality,
If it exists on this planet,
It is possible to be yours.
Everything is everybody's.
We're all one.
So if it's here,
If someone created it,
If someone invented it and it's accessible,
It can be yours.
You can actually order something from across the planet and have that experience in your reality.
You can order some magical soap or something from Egypt and have it shipped to you and actually get to enjoy what they are experiencing on that side of the planet.
And so it's all available for you.
It's all here for you.
And so when she said that it is my natural state,
That really hit home.
I just love Lovely.
If you can tell,
She's like my best friend.
She's like,
I wish I would have known that she was available to me sooner.
So yes,
When she said that it is my natural state,
I really had to meditate in that.
And so I got quiet and I asked her to give me an analogy or to explain to me how is it my natural state to be a receiver?
Because I've been a giver my entire life.
And when I'm receiving,
I almost feel guilty.
Like sometimes people will offer me things and I will say,
Oh,
No,
No,
No,
No,
Don't worry.
Or even receiving compliments.
You know,
Someone will compliment something and instead of smiling and saying thank you,
I will feel like I have to give them a compliment back.
Like they'll say,
Oh,
I love your hair.
And I would say,
Oh,
My God,
Thank you.
I love your shirt.
Like I feel obligated.
Like I'm in this yang and yang of giving and receiving.
And in all actuality,
I don't have to do that.
She picked that shirt out.
She liked that shirt.
She likes my hair.
I can just receive the compliment.
You know,
I don't have to always feel like I have to balance out receiving and giving.
If I give a lot,
I'll receive a lot back.
Or because I give so much of myself to my family and people that I love,
My significant other,
I feel like,
Oh,
I'm giving all this out.
One day it's going to pay off.
But like,
No,
Lovely said no.
Lovely said it is my natural state to be a receiver.
And so back to what I was saying,
I asked her to give me an example.
And the example she gave was that trees receive water and naturally give oxygen,
But neither is striving to do either one.
So the tree is not waking up every morning,
Striving to give us oxygen,
Nor is the tree waking up every morning,
Striving and working hard to receive the water from the universe.
It just is.
It is just your birthright to receive.
It is not what we think it is.
It's not hard work.
It's not a bunch of action.
It is what your energy deserves.
You are energetic being and you can tap into anything that exists here and you can receive it naturally.
You know,
Some of your most marvelous things that happen in life were unexpected and you just receive them.
You didn't know.
Lovely said everything in this experience is receiving and everything is naturally giving things back to the universe.
OK,
Not with force,
But naturally there is no force.
Everything is flowing effortlessly.
There is no force.
So you are a receiver and it is your birthright to receive.
It is your natural state to receive and it is what you should be.
You should be requesting things from the universe.
So with that,
Let's just take a moment to meditate.
OK,
Let's just meditate on the message that Lovely gave us today.
And you can close your eyes if you're in a space to close your eyes.
If you're driving down the highway,
Please don't close your eyes.
I'm a really big believer of meditating with your eyes open.
I have received so many magical messages that way.
If your eyes are open,
Find yourself in a daydream state,
Almost as if you're daydreaming.
This is only going to be for a few moments,
So don't worry.
So in the space that you're in,
I want you to feel what receiving feels like.
If you can,
Open your hands and allow the universe to pour into you what you already are.
Send gratitude.
Thank the universe in advance for all it's given you.
Your heart beat without getting anything in return.
Your legs work.
You are breathing.
You are here.
You are constantly receiving.
Just say thank you.
Welcome back.
I'm so glad that you're here.
Welcome back.
So go into this day with the knowing that you are a receiver.
You don't have to be a giver.
They are the same.
You are naturally given.
Every time you receive something from someone,
You've already given them something back.
You've given them your presence.
You've given them motivation.
You've given them a kind smile.
You are constantly given.
It is your natural state.
Just like the tree is given oxygen and receiving multiple streams of nutrients and water and everything to thrive.
It's a natural state.
You don't have to put action to be a receiver.
And so it doesn't have to be a yin and a yang,
Good and bad.
If I give you this,
I'll take that.
I can receive as long as I keep giving to people.
No,
You are naturally a given.
The fact that you are energy on this freaking planet,
You are giving your energy.
You are giving your energy to the whole picture.
If you got anything from this,
Please take a moment to leave a review or a comment.
And if you take the time to leave me a review and leave me a comment,
It makes my day.
And it helps me feel like I'm not alone in such a crowded world.
Thanks for hanging out with me.
And I guess lovely too.
I'll close with this.
Every day I'm trapped in the illusion.
And every day I forget that I'm really free.
