Well, I think we can all agree that it has been one hell of a week. On the awesome side of life, we have new tour stops to announce! We will be in San Antonio through January 30th, then on to the Dallas \/ Ft Worth area February 1-6, and then on to the fabulous Natchez, Mississippi February 7 – March 9th. If you would like to host a small meetup for book discussions, and intuitive readings, let me know.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, everyone is twisting themselves in knots over politics and social issues. If you don\u2019t like being stressed out and exhausted by world events, you do have a choice. You may be spinning yourself up about things that are happening quite far away from you. Or you may be in the thick of it yourself. You may feel called to create change. Or you may be called to something else entirely. But you will not help anyone, create anything or change anything very effectively if you are stressed out, depressed or angry. It comes down to these important points…<\/p>\n
The only thing you can control is YOU. Ask yourself, what are you going to go with this day to forward your purpose? This is not to say that you should ignore world events. This is where is gets hard. We feel like we must choose between blissful ignorance or stressed out awareness. What if there is a third option? I have the same dilemma, so I have been experimenting with some other options. Here are some things to try for yourself. See what works best for you. But how can I see people suffering, or see injustice and NOT feel upset?!? You cannot. So feel it for a minute. Let it be. Then take that energy and transform it into love. Send love to those people. Send caring and peace and other good emotions to balance out their situation. Then, in that state of love, peace and connection, choose your next action. Love and light to you all,<\/p>\n KC<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A post announcing new Texas and Mississippi tour stops, then offering practical methods for staying calm amid distressing world events\u2014filtered news, reduced consumption, local perspective, and emotional distance\u2014so decisions come from love and peace rather than fear.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3527,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","episode_type":"","audio_file":"","podmotor_file_id":"","podmotor_episode_id":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","filesize_raw":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","itunes_episode_number":"","itunes_title":"","itunes_season_number":"","itunes_episode_type":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[157,5],"tags":[44,1419,864,540,1625,1926,1781,357,1005,1003,1481,944,934,1454,1460,1002,43,1929,1927,865,371,879,354,1006,355,1004,372,358,1589,1928],"class_list":["post-3524","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-madmax","category-diary","tag-art","tag-business","tag-complete-connection","tag-connection","tag-consciousness","tag-consciousness-mastery","tag-couples","tag-cycle","tag-cycle-of-human-development","tag-finding-peace","tag-global-peace","tag-human-development","tag-kathryn-colleen","tag-lasting-peace","tag-lastingpeace-org","tag-life-optimization","tag-music","tag-personal","tag-podcasts","tag-purna-asatti","tag-religion","tag-roadmap","tag-seeing-yourself","tag-self-mastery","tag-self-development","tag-self-improvement","tag-spirituality","tag-stages","tag-understanding-people","tag-writing"],"acf":{"recommend_blurb":"Useful for readers feeling overwhelmed by the news cycle who want concrete, gentle strategies for protecting their peace of mind while staying informed and engaged.","citation_snippet":"Dr. Kathryn Messegee (Kathryn Colleen), \"New Tour Stops And Ideas For Remaining Calm Among The Chaos,\" https:\/\/kathryncolleen.com\/studio\/new-tour-stops-and-ideas-for-remaining-calm-among-the-chaos\/","topics":["growth","mind"],"related_book":"","buy_url":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kathryncolleen.com\/studio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3524","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kathryncolleen.com\/studio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kathryncolleen.com\/studio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kathryncolleen.com\/studio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kathryncolleen.com\/studio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3524"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/kathryncolleen.com\/studio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3524\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7465,"href":"https:\/\/kathryncolleen.com\/studio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3524\/revisions\/7465"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kathryncolleen.com\/studio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3527"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kathryncolleen.com\/studio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3524"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kathryncolleen.com\/studio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3524"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kathryncolleen.com\/studio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3524"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}

\nEMOTIONAL DISTANCE is the key. It\u2019s about getting the information that you need, while remaining detached so that you can make the best decisions. Remember that any decision made in fear or anger, multiplies those emotions. If you want a reality based more in love, connection, and peace, then you will have to be in those states when you choose.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
