RE-CONNECTING TO THE LOVE THAT IS WITHIN YOU – A DAILY PRACTICE

Inside of you there is a spiritual heart. The home of your angel-self, your soul if you will. You, as many of the greatest spiritual books have said, are god made manifest, you are divine and human both. It is within this spiritual heart that your divine-self resides. Your divine-self is still connected to the ‘ALL THAT IS’ and so the more you regularly connect with your divine-self, the more you re-connect to the infinite source of LOVE that IS, THE ALL THAT IS.

Connecting with your angel-self, your divine-self is much easier than you think. In fact, I offer this to you as something that anyone of you can do each and every morning as a practice. Each morning as you awake, before you do anything else, just spend a moment (in that wonderful space between dreaming and waking consciousness) to breathe consciously and, with each breath, to go within. As you take that inner-journey, begin to visualise your spiritual heart, no matter what you imagine it to be, just ‘see it’ however it comes to you. With each breath, you move towards it, then with the next breath you are IN it. This is the sanctuary of your soul, the residing place of your angel-self. Here there is just warmth, light, and an abundance of LOVE. As you sit within this space, BREATHE in the love that is all around you. Let it flow into you with each breath, it is like air only finer, golden, warm, restorative and healing. As you breath in that love, so the love fills you from tip to toe, flowing through your human body, filling your inner fuel tank of love. 

Keep breathing until you feel that your body, heart and soul are full, your mind empty of thought or worry. Breathe until your own inner fuel tank of love is topped up for the day. You will know this has happened as your eyes will naturally open, as if you are waking for the first time that morning. See the world around you, your bedroom, the view from your window, your beloved, your children, your pets, whoever is close to you as you wake – through those eyes of LOVE. This is how we, your angels, see you. 

There is no better way to start your day. This practice is a reminder, that inside of you is all the LOVE you will ever need. Just be re-connecting with that love that is within you, you ensure that your day will be a better day. 


May all your days be better days, may the love that is within you guide you and sustain you. 

With all my love, 

Emmanuel xx

WHAT BRINGS YOU JOY? HOMEWORK FROM EMMANUEL

When the world around you feels like it is slipping into shadow. When life feels as though it is a bit of a struggle. There is only one tonic, only one thing that can counteract the abundance of fear that is all around you – To do that which BRINGS YOU JOY.

Joy is love made manifest. Joy connects you to the essence of who you are, it breaks through any darkness like sun breaking through the clouds – it brings light(ness), it opens your heart (fully) and reconnects you to the magic that exists in every moment.

Fear tells you to worry about the future or worry about your past – but in the present moment there is a freedom that fear cannot touch, and it is JOY that is the vehicle that brings you to that present moment. 

Joy is something that cannot be faked, one cannot be ‘half-Joyful’ – it is a total body, mind, and spirit experience and when you experience Joy, fear cannot exist, darkness is dispelled and there is only the beauty of this present moment.

So, think for a moment, what truly brings you JOY? Make a list of things that are guaranteed to awaken JOY within you. Make sure that, at least once a week, you do something that brings you JOY and then the order and balance will return to your life. 

Life will no longer feel a struggle, and the darkness will feel, well, less dark! 

It may sound simple, but often it is the simple messages that are the most profound.

Make your list today, consider it a homework from me, Emmanuel. It will be, I promise, a homework that you will take great pleasure in doing and will give great pleasure for many, many, months and years to come. 

All my love,

Emmanuel xxx

WHEN YOUR HEART BREAKS

There will be some of you right now who are suffering from a broken heart. I want you to know, that a broken heart is not as bad a thing as it feels right now. When a heart breaks, it is breaking only so that it might increase its capacity to love. Yes, it hurts, yes there will be pain, loss and emotional ups and downs – this is natural when one’s heart is breaking. However, know that a heart never gets smaller, only ever BIGGER. It is perhaps one of the most profound ways to shift and evolve yourself in your adventure in being human. It is also an invitation to fall back in love with YOURSELF.

When you lose another’s love, another’s company, it is an opportunity to reconnect with the love that is within you, and all around you. A reminder that, although it is wonderful to be ‘in love’ with another, the most important love of all is that which you show and give to yourself. We invite you now to spend a moment in the heart-break, and see that as the heart breaks so the love that is held within it is spilling out into YOU, becoming a part of you. All that once which was given to another, can now be given to yourself, to YOU. Why? Because love is the greatest healer, the greatest medicine of all. You feel sick inside, you feel hurt, you feel pain – let the love that is within your heart pour into you, merge into you, heal you, dissolve the pain and help your heart to heal and grow. I am not saying that there will not be days, weeks ahead that will be challenging, but know that whatever comes, that we will be with you. Your angels are there for you to reach out to too! So do invite them in each morning, ask them to be with you and to help you heal each and every day! Do ask them each night to surround you in their healing wings’ embrace, that is what they are here for. To hold you in the love that you are, to love you until your heart is healed. 

You will love again, and when you do, your capacity to love will not have diminished but indeed your capacity to love will have increased! That is the wonder of the heart, that is the magical nature of LOVE. 

All my love, Emmanuel x

THE DANCE OF HUMAN RELATIONSHIPS

Many of you reading this will be wondering, how can an angel understand the dance of human relationships? Well, once upon a time I too was in human form, I too chose human adventures, I too was just like you. There is a misunderstanding that angels are separate, different, removed from the human experience, and it is true that SOME are. Some were never destined to have a human incarnation, but others like myself have been through the cycles of human incarnation, have experienced the wonderful adventure of what it is to be in form and therefore have an understanding of what it is to be human. 

One of the wonders of the human experience is the wonder of human relationships. Your personal relationships are an opportunity to truly explore what LOVE is and are purposefully designed into the human adventure, so that everyone gets to experience LOVE – whatever their story is in this lifetime. 

LOVE is a part of everyone’s story. If you are in a human incarnation it is a core of your curriculum, like English or Mathematics at your schools, you cannot avoid it, it is always there, because LOVE is the most important keys to understanding and appreciating life itself. 

LOVE teaches in its absence and in its presence. If you felt unloved as a child, then that absence of love means that you seek it out, you yearn to find that love in other ways, in other relationships throughout your lifetime. If you had the opposite experience and were truly loved as a child, then you seek to replicate and share that love with others and perhaps you will indeed share that love with someone who felt unloved as a child.

LOVE is they key that unlocks the secrets of what it is to live and be alive. The dance of human relationships, be that parent/child, grandparent/grandchild, brother/sister, husband/wife, friends, lovers, or beloveds, IS the only dance there is. Sometimes the dance is in sync, flowing, moving effortlessly across the dancefloor, and other times it is out of sync, stilted, and you find yourself stepping on your dance partner’s toes. Always, relationships are a great opportunity to learn and grow, to understand at a deeper level the truth of who you are.

The secret to being a good dancer, is to practice, practice, PRACTICE. Exploring and growing your relationships, exploring and growing your ability to love and be loved, is the fastest way to a happier and more fulfilling life – it’s the best way to be a great dancer. 


Not everyone reading will have someone to call their love, their beloved. Not everyone will have their dance partner, but that does not mean you cannot dance, cannot experience what it is to be dancing across the stage of life, to be swept up in the beauty of love, the dance of LOVE. Love comes in many shapes and many forms. Relationships do too. 

So do what you can to extend and grow your relationships and, in doing so, you extend and grow the possibilities to love and be loved. Love is all around you, it is in you, it IS YOU. 

Dear sweet angel, I am here to remind you to keep on dancing, keep on exploring and growing your human relationships, and who knows? The next dance might be the one where you find your beloved, find a new friend, or connect even for a moment, in a way that transcends, that goes beyond the dance, beyond separation and connects you both to the deepest LOVE of all. 

All my love, Emmanuel x

CAN YOU SEE THE BEAUTY?

When life feels hard and is getting you down. When things feel bleak or dark or fearful. Take a step outside, outside into the natural world. Nature is there to heal you, to fuel you and to reconnect you. There is so much beauty, if only you open your eyes and see. Even on the darkest day, nature is there awaiting you, waiting to share its beauty with you. The blue of the sky, the trees as they dance in the wind, the colours of nature – so vivid, so beautiful. God is in all things and god is all around you. The ancients knew this and that’s why they venerated nature, why they understood how important it was to connect with the world around them, and beneath their feet.

So, when things feel a struggle, let the wind blow those struggles away. When things feel dark, let the rays of the sun dispel the darkness and bring you back to the light. When fear has you in its grip, let the waves of the ocean break the spell and drag fear back into the depths where it belongs. When nothing looks right, just look at the detail and awesome beauty of a blooming flower. When nothing sounds right, listen to the songbird as it warbles its sweet melody in the twilight. When night falls upon you, look up to the stars and let them transport you back home, here in the heavens where you belong. Everyday find a little time to see the beauty, it fills the heart, clears the head and feeds your very soul. It is a great way to each day reconnect to the ALL THAT IS – and remind yourself that the planet that you live upon is really quite wonderful, and beautiful indeed.

Sending you all my love, Emmanuel xx

IN THESE SELF-ISOLATING TIMES YOU ARE NOT ALONE…

I know that right now many of you may be struggling with self-isolation. Some of you will have families around you, but many will feel as if they are alone. So, I am writing today to remind you that NONE of you are EVER alone.

There are angels that walk with every single one of you. If you are reading this, I promise you that your guardian angel is there with you, and probably leaning in over your shoulder and reading this too!

You see each child that is born on your planet comes with its own personally assigned angelic guardians and you, are no different. Sure, you may not see your angel as you did when you were a small child (do you remember how you used to play together?) but they have gone nowhere they are still there with you.

Your guardian angel or angels (for some of you will have more than one) are there with you (and only you) for the duration of your entire human adventure. They are there to help, support & guide you, there to call upon when you need them.

As the world that you live in becomes more ‘real’ for you, so the distance between our realms widens as you accept the illusionary world as real, so other worlds disappear from view. But I come with wonderful news – because I am here to tell you that:

  1. yes we ARE HERE and that you are not alone
  2. that you CAN reconnect with us anytime you wish to

“Well HOW DO we connect with our angels Emmanuel?”  – I am glad you have asked, for it is much simpler than you think!

The first thing to understand is that the world you live in and the spiritual realms are not as far apart as you have been taught to understand. There are times of day and night when the walls between our world and yours are especially thin and it is easier for us to be together, easy for us to converse – the bridge between our worlds is LOVE – and so when you call to us in the VOICE OF LOVE, then we are able to cross that bridge and be with you.

So, to keep things very simple we would suggest that in the morning as you arise simply say (out loud if you can):

‘Good morning my angels’ – Then stop to listen, do you hear our response? Do you feel our presence?

Then invite us into your day, it is this invitation that allows us to be with you and to help, guide and support you. Say something like:

“Be with me today my angels, I invite you in to help, guide and support me to be my very best. Help me be an ambassador of love and on mission and purpose today – thank you”

And here is the wonderful part! Simply by doing that, by consciously and lovingly inviting us in, so then you can know with confidence that whatever happens in that day happens for a reason – you can have no doubt in that, for we will be with you every step of your day.

As I mentioned earlier the space between our worlds are thin as you drift off to sleep too – so this again is a good time to reach out to your angels. Had a good day? How about saying a little ‘thank you my angels for being with me today’?

Had a not so good day? – How about asking your angels to help you understand and process the day and be with you through the night so that you wake up refreshed and ready to go in the morning.

Had a day that has left you drained and exhausted? Then why not ask your angels to wrap their wings around you and to take you home, to recharge, refuel and refresh?

We are here for you, for it is you that we are HERE FOR.

We cannot be anywhere else, but by your side and the more you acknowledge us, the more you reach out to us, and call to us IN LOVE the more visible and tangible will be the angelic, support and guidance (and yes, communication!) will be for you.

So even if you are by yourself in this time of lockdown, you truly are not alone. And what better time than now to begin to gently build the bridge of LOVE between our worlds – to reconnect with your guardian angels and help us to help you to have a life on mission and on purpose.

We love you and look forward to reconnecting and speaking to you soon!

All my love Emmanuel (and of course YOUR GUARDIAN ANGELS) xxx

EMMANUEL’S – CORONA VIRUS MESSAGE

Emmanuel, What do we take from what is currently going on in the world with the corona-virus pandemic?

The incidents that are now occurring are to make you aware of just how joined up your planet is, how it is impossible to not be interdependent of one another to break down barriers and borders between countries not re-enforce them. To unite humanity under a common cause, one that has no visible enemy for that is important.

You are being asked to unite in a way that ensures a greater well-being for the entire planet and its population going forwards. To highlight the need for resources of all sorts to be shared, to highlight the errors in how economic models and health systems have been managed, structured and funded. It is not until you have such a catastrophic and massive event such as this that you can see just how fragile the systems are that you have in place – How impossible it is to match capacity with need when everyone is in need.

There is also a reminder here that as human beings you are united in a biology if nothing else – you are all human beings no matter what colour, what creed, what sexuality or nationality you have.

Consider it a reminder also of the fragility of the global system itself and of the human population – I am not saying this to scare you, I am merely saying is it not time to understand that the ecology of the planet and the ecological issues you are facing are very real threats as highlighted by this pandemic? You are not as secure as you thought you were, for this type of infection crosses all borders and is an unknown to ALL of science – and makes you aware of the weaknesses in your own systems. It is a wake-up call in this case, to break down barriers in international scientific research & economic co-operation – to work together and share resources for the betterment of all human-kind.

It is also a reminder that you are ALL ONE and an invitation to re-engage compassion, kindness, generosity and LOVE. There will be many that will suffer, but there will be an even greater number for whom this will be a ‘bringing together’, a reminder of your common bonds, your common values, your common humanity.

Perhaps then you will not be able to tolerate in the same sense the economic and social injustices that are prevalent not just in your country but across your planet. Perhaps you will say that it is not ok for someone to have to sleep without a roof over their heads or go hungry tonight, perhaps you will say that it is not ok for one to live in absolute splendour and another to live in absolute poverty. Perhaps you will see then that you all sisters and brothers, all one family, no matter what country you are from, or where you are on your planet.

Let us see this current predicament as shining a light, a spotlight if you will, highlighting that which is in need of attention and change – see it as thus.

This time is one to come together, to open ones heart and not listen to the voice of fear anymore. It is time to follow the voice of love as it calls you to service – service to your fellow man and woman, your family, your community, your country, your planet. This is a time of transformation a step-change in the evolution not just of your planet but of the human race itself.

Remember too, that you are never alone – we are with you, please do call on us, talk to us and we will be with you, every step of the way.

All my love,  Emmanuel xxx

RAM DASS – BEING LOVE NOW

As many of you reading this will know Emmanuel and I were friends of Ram Dass who left his body late last year. We’d like to use this month’s update to honour his memory by Jo sharing a few words about him:

I met Ram Dass when I was just 16 – it is not to understate things to say I would not be who I am or where I am today without him. It was his guidance, support and unconditional love that helped me understand my own spiritual journey and my own mission here on earth. I feel so blessed to have had him in my life and so greatful that this lifetime around I was in the presence of such a teacher, guide, mentor, role model and friend.

It was Ram Dass I turned to, when Emmanuel first came to me. His validation, constant support and encouragement helped me to accept this ‘assignment’ and embrace a lifetime mission that I felt woefully under qualified or worthy enough to do. He helped me overcome my ‘unworthiness’ and he taught me to be a better channel without ‘teaching’ me. He gave me his time and shared valuable insights into what might lie ahead for me on the journey with Emmanuel ahead.

There are few people on this planet who embody their teachings, but Ram Dass was truly one of them. His love was total, for me, for you, for anyone who came into his presence. He truly did unconditionally LOVE me, and I cannot tell you what that meant to me.

Being in that presence of such total LOVE, to be LOVED despite all your own personally perceived flaws, that is a gift that is impossible to describe. Through his LOVE and his belief in me, I have grown & learnt so much. I have learnt to love myself in the way that he loved me. I have learnt to embrace who I am, and allow the truth of who I am to gradually unfold and reveal itself – I have learnt to embrace my human-ness and never hide away who I am or who I have been, to be honest, humble and true to my-self.

What I have always loved about RD was his human-ness – he never professed to being perfect or for having it all worked out – he talked honestly about the mistakes he had made, the learnings he had picked up along the way. He was a true model of a spiritual adventurer and ultimately a teacher. He never stopped learning, there was always more of the mystery to explore, more LOVE to be merged into.

And now he has made the ultimate journey, he has left his body and merged back into LOVE. He now IS the LOVE that he unconditionally gave us all – and it is IN that LOVE that we can still find him. He is still here –

HE IS LOVE.

I feel his presence as I write this. He has not gone away; in fact, I feel his presence more keenly now than ever.

Thank you Ram Dass – Thank you, thank you, thank you.

All my love,

Jo xx

LETTING GO – your past is done with you, if you are done with it

I wish to let you know that now is the PERFECT time to let go of your past.

There is no better time than RIGHT NOW, at the beginning of a year, indeed at the beginning of a new DECADE upon your planet, to let the past be left in the past.

There is so much suffering upon your planet, and much of that suffering is inflicted not by current events, but past events. There is a perception that you must relive and keep the traumas of the past with you, but we promise this is not true. We do not wish for you to keep the burdens of the past, all we ask is that you use them as an opportunity to learn and grow (which can be said for almost every event in the adventure called being human!) and then (and this is the part that gets left out mistakenly) LET THEM GO.

In the here and now, the past cannot exist – indeed that past by its very nature is behind you, it is not with you for it cannot be unless you decided to attach yourself to it, by thoughts, words or deeds. This brings the past into present life, in vivid colour and all the emotions attached to the memories are also brought back into existence.

But the human incarnation is one of choosing, you do not have to keep memories you do not wish to keep, you do not have to keep the suffering, hurt, or guilt that you have from your past. You can choose to let them go and letting go is a very powerful way to be more in the present, to be more in the here and now – to be free to live life to its fullest, moment by moment.

I am here to tell you the wonderful news that YOUR PAST IS DONE WITH YOU, IF YOU ARE DONE WITH YOUR PAST.

So, at the beginning of this new decade, is the PERFECT time to let go of what WAS and embrace what IS.

Reflect for a moment, what purpose does it serve to keep a hold of your misdemeanors and errors of your past – DOES IT SERVE YOU? – or are you using it as a stick to beat yourself up and put yourself down from time to time? I promise you as I have said before there are no ledgers kept in heaven, so there is no need to be hard upon yourselves, be kind, be forgiving and let go.

There is such freedom in forgiveness, such freedom in LETTING GO. So here is a little homework for you, to start the decade:

Write a list of that which you currently choose to hold onto from your past that has a disempowering or negative effect upon you.

Ask yourself – does this event merit keeping still? Does it serve me to still use it as something to prove I am unloveable or I am a bad person?

What have I learnt from this event? If I feel I am still learning – what else can I take from this, to allow me to let go and move on? If necessary, you may wish to write our HOW you have learnt from the event, and HOW it has helped shape your life going forwards.

Even the most traumatic of events can have transformatory powers, they are fierce teachers, that give direction and meaning to the human adventure. Sometime presents come very badly wrapped indeed, but it is about going beneath the exterior, the emotional response and hurt, and getting to the truth, the message, the life-learning that exists beneath.

If there were one thing us angels would do, if we could – it would be to relieve you of the burdens of your past. But I hope that today you can see, that your past is very much done with you, if you are done with it – and that the only purpose of the adventure called life is to learn and grow. So as soon as you have learnt, then you can LET IT GO.

You will find that by LETTING GO, there is so much more to your life – here in the present moment, the beauty and love that exists is to wonderful to express. Come be with us in that present moment, we await your company – with great delight!

All my love Emmanuel xxx

WHEN YOU GET DOWN REMEMBER WE’RE AROUND

The adventure called being human can feel sometimes as if it is a lonely one. There are pressures and demands put on you all the time and admirably you do your best to make things work, to get things done, to be the best you can be. It is inevitable with all that effort, with all that pressure to succeed that from time to time things can get you down.
Now more than ever on your planet everything is speeding up and more is expected from you and the expectations you put on yourself are even higher. When was the last time you stopped? Truly stopped and did nothing? When was the last time you allowed yourself time off for good behaviour? It’s time to stop trying to be perfect and give yourself the permission to be imperfect, for that is indeed what being human (and being a human angel by the way) is all about. You have set yourself so many high bars that it is impossible to keep on jumping over them and it’s time to let yourself be human with all the emotions that come with that – even the emotion and experience called being DOWN.

The humans adventure is a set of experiences, some of those are pleasant and some of those not so pleasant, however it is those very experiences that enable you to grow, develop and help you become a better you. To remember the truth of who you are, and be more fully engaged in the wonderful education that only a human lifetime can bring.

It’s time to give yourself a break! It is no wonder that you feel down when you’ve been forcing yourself to be UP so often! As a human being it is only natural that you have peaks and troughs, up days and yes down days. So allow yourself the pleasure (and yes I do mean pleasure – as we angels do not have these ups and downs and it’s part of the joy of being human to have these experiences!) of being human and all that comes with that.

Just because you are feeling a little down, don’t let that spoil the overall experience. Go into that DOWN, be with it, sit with it, LOVE IT, laugh at it, and be free from it. And when you are especially DOWN, then remember you are not in that place ALONE. Oh no! You are never alone, you must know that by now.

WE YOUR ANGELS ARE ABSOLUTELY WITH YOU.

And actually when you are down is a good time to reconnect, to reach out and get in touch with us. When you are down often your emotions are raised and the distance between our worlds is not far at all to traverse. So write to us, talk with us, shout at us (we don’t mind) we will be there and as long as you listen, we will let you know that we are here. We will help relieve you of your unnecessary suffering and help bring the light into the shadow that has formed (temporarily) around you. It’s time to reconnect, not disconnect, to reach out, not shrink back – it’s a perfect time to celebrate being human and to remember that you are divine and never alone.

So when you get down, remember WE ARE AROUND. Reach out, next time you feel a little down and you’ll soon find that things are never quite as bad as they seem.

We love you and love all that you are!

Emmanuel xxx
