Good morning…
Several people wrote to me after yesterday’s blog post, a post highlighting the ever-widening Circle of Love sparked by the life of Christian mystic Betty Skinner. Many of you wondered, “Is there a required registration for Dr. Cathy Snapp’s talk?” (See flyer above.) I wondered that myself, so I reached out to the organizers and learned that the event is offered at no charge, but they would like us to register so they can get a good headcount for the August 26th gathering. Touch here to register.
Then, because she is a dear long-time friend, I texted Cathy last night. “Hi Cathy,” I wrote. “I am going to blog about your talk at Christ the King on the 26th. I will write in the middle of the night. Is there any personal note you would like me to include?”
At 10:22 pm Cathy replied:
It always, ALWAYS makes me smile to get a text from you!
Sue, I love your question and your prompt. It brings my heart into even deeper alignment with the vision God has for that talk. I feel such a profound sense of gratitude for Dianne Moffett, Dave Tharp, Mace, and the legions of spirit-driven souls who comprise this ever-expanding Peace of Mind network. I feel such deep gratitude – and excitement – to have the opportunity to share what feels so transformational.
It continues to amaze, thrill, and delight me to witness the ever-deepening intersection of spirit and science, and to see (and feel) the Oneness that permeates these interlocking truths. I don’t know if any of this makes sense or is even useful to you, but it certainly lifts my vibration and energy as I ponder the miraculous convergence of these fields. I love demonstrating how our feelings serve as power generators for our perceptions – and how the frequency of our feelings literally influences how we “see” reality. The brain is constantly looking for evidence to support the emotional frequency, or valence, we are experiencing.
Understanding “emotion as energy” feels like such an incredibly hopeful framework because it completely upends the brain’s propensity toward guilt, shame, blame, the 5 C’s, and so much more. It offers us a radically different, and deeply empowering, way of understanding our experience: rather than being victims of our emotional states, we can begin to recognize the profound influence our emotional frequency has on what we perceive, how we interpret the world, and ultimately, how we choose to experience reality.
As Betty says, “our choices are everything”. And of course, no matter what, come what may, we can trust that “All shall be well, all shall be well, all manner of things shall be well”. What a profoundly hopeful and hope-filled truth and FEELING that completely changes key biological systems that drive and promote such radical joy!
These are late night musings…….but you’ve made me smile as we “communed” together this evening. Thanks so much for promoting this wonderful event. I love that whole Peace of Mind team and mission. Love you too!!!
Cathy has been unwrapping these concepts with me for years and years and years, and I still understand just the tip of this God-designed iceberg. Every time I hear Cathy speak, I walk away feeling energized and empowered, inspired to see (and feel) the Oneness that permeates everything.
Everything you are and think and do is permeated with Oneness (Ephesians 4:6, MSG).
