Over twenty-five years ago, I met Lynn Andrews’ books, and they were life-changing to say the least. While in her four-year shamanic mystery school, she introduced me to the concept of “good enemies”. She taught me about awareness and the different energies that swirl about us. She showed me how to turn around and confront the negative thought forms that whispered in my ears, tapped me on the shoulder, or just outright blocked my path.
I’ve written in several of my Friday Food For Thought messages about some of these like Doubt, Procrastination, and Resistance, You can check those articles and many more out in the Wisdom Whispers archives at https://vickidobbs.com/wisdom-whispers-blog
I am writing this FFFT (Friday Food For Thought if you hadn’t guessed 😊) early this week even though you will still get it on Friday, as tomorrow is the wonderful procedure that will allow my heart and I to beat to the sound of the same drummer once again. I am optimistic and excited to have it done and over with (exhausted from trying not to think about it all and staying busy to finish projects every day).
Here’s to checking one more thing off my list of “Get ‘er Done” stuff.
SUPER NEWS: This week I am over the moon to finally be able to say IT’S HERE!
After a couple of weeks teasing it was coming, Introducing the Gifts of Our Good Enemies, Reframing the Challenges and Frustrations We Encounter is available in Kindle Version on Amazon. As a special thank you for being a part of my circle, this new short read (pre-lude to a full version book) will be just $.99 for the rest of May.
Pick up your copy here and as always, if you are so inclined, a review would be greatly appreciated. This is a short read, about 5,ooo words, just an introduction to this concept and the link for the FREE pdf Identifying Your Good Enemies is included inside the eBook. Here is the Amazon link.
I am so grateful for these teachings and all the others that Lynn gifted me over the years. I hope you will discover the good enemies that are tagging along with you and discover a few ways to make them a part of your circle of teachers rather than enemies.
Ready to roll on and keep on writin’ more about this sacred topic and get on with finishing Good Enemies: Befriending the Forces That Challenge Us (or whatever the final title decides to be).
Many blessings and happy reading.
