Are you a lightworker? Am I a lightworker? What is a lightworker anyway?

When the question “What is a lightworker?” arose in my always questioning, personal growth junkie brain, I realized I first needed to know what “light” meant in the spiritual realm. And when I want to discover a deeper, relevant meaning for a word, I request an acronym from the Benevolent Energy Of The Universe (BEOTU as I like to call God). I’ve come to call these affirmation acronyms, Shiftitudes, as they help me to shift from sucky to soulful instantaneously.  Light downloaded as the following shiftitude:  Leap Into Glorious Happy Truth.

It was perfect! Because when I am filled with light, or going towards the light, or letting my light shine, or in the midst of a light snack (lol), it feels like I am in the midst of extreme happiness and joy. I feel like a puppy jumping for joy for the sheer heck of it! And for me, happiness and joy are two of the indisputable truths of the universe.

The healing power of lightworkers comes from their intent to uplift…

What is a lightworker? Although still new to the term lightworker, it is becoming so clear to me that in our own way that we, and everything living on this planet, are lightworkers. Dogs and cats and any type of pets are lightworkers (remember, dog is god spelled backwards..:), plants and trees are lightworkers, the oceans are lightworkers – and yes, I believe that chocolate is a lightworker too. Whatever fills us with happiness and joy is a lightworker in my book.

Being a lightworker is really just a matter of how much you let your God-given light shine through...AND what you do with that light.  How do you make your immediate world a better place?  Where do you step up and step out in the name of love, in the name of light?  Where do you Leap Into Glorious Happy Truth?

Here are 7 sure ways to help you decide whether or not you are a lightworker

1 – you love helping other people

2 – you see the good in people even when they’re jerks

3 – you hold the space that we are all one

4 – you smile at strangers

5 – you don’t judge – anything!

6 – you think Oprah’s OWN channel rocks

7 – you’re going to vote for Marianne Williamson if you live in the 33rd district in California..:)

7 1/2 – you read my blog posts (lol!)

 

Wanna leap into glorious happy truth?  Do this mindfulness exercise and get started!

1 – Just for one day, work on seeing the light, the truth in everyone. Remember, light is the glorious happy truth. And the biggest truth is that we are all love (Loads Of Vibrant Energy). What is a lightworker? Easy: A lightworker looks for that truth in every single person you connect with in your day.

2 – See if you feel any different when you go to bed that night and answer these simple questions:

Do you feel less alone?

Do you have a small smile on your face?

Does your heart feel happy?

Doesn’t it feel better to look for the light than to look for the fault?

3 – Feel free to repeat this exercise for as many days as you want….

 

Here’s a poem by one of the highest lightworkers to grace our planet, the poet Rumi…off to climb onto my roof..:)

Light and Shadow

We are darkness and God is Light; this house
Receives all splendor from the Sun
Here, the Light is mingled with shadow.
Do you want your light totally pure?
Leave the house and climb onto the roof.

– Jalal-ud-Din Rumi
(Translated by Andrew Harvey from A Year of Rumi)

So, now that you know what a lightworker is, how do you light up your day and the people around you?  Any cool things you do that you can share with the STS community?
