EXPERIENCING TECHNICAL DIFFICULTY

We are experiencing difficulty with our email on elkins_delgad@yahoo.com and toni@anextstep.org as well as kelley@anextstep.org It appears we have had numerous people email us and then call asking why we did not respond?the answer was simple. We did not receive their emails.

This presents a problem. We really want to receive your emails. We even have all the spam filters off on our yahoo account just so we won't miss any emails.

So if you would, please send us an email (please DO NOT reply to the newsletter) if you get a bounce back please send it to leeman88@toast.net Lee is our webmaster and is working diligently with Yahoo trying to figure out why our emails are getting lost in cyberspace. By sending the bounce back or failed notice to Lee helps because he then sends it to Yahoo. They then have something to work with to figure this out.

Thank you in advance for helping us with this, it is a bit strange and as I've said, we want to hear from you, comments on the newsletter or when you want to set up an appointment or purchase something like Toni's latest book. We really do enjoy your comments and questions.

Thank you and God/Goddess bless you.

OPEN YOUR HEART AND MASTER YOUR MIND
By Jafree Ozwald & Margot Zaher

"Freedom means the opportunity to be what we never thought we would be."
~Daniel J. Boorstin

Relax. Breathe deeply into your heart. Let it be fully open in this moment. The instant your heart relaxes, it opens... and the mind automatically stops grasping to overcome problems and surrenders to the real solution. The ultimate solution to any problem in life comes through recognizing that this divine loving heart energy is within you and is always here now. Surrendering to the heart through trust and deeper relaxation is how this "divine solution" manifests into our lives.

It's good to know that at the very core of your heart there is ALWAYS a constant current of peace and an abundant river of bliss. If you aren't feeling this now, it doesn't mean that it's not there. It just means that you haven't yet opened your heart FULLY to this moment and tamed the wild chattering relentless mind completely. The mind, with its Ego driven tendencies, does not want to ride this gentle river of heart centered bliss. If it did go into this river, it feels that it would dissolve into it, and most certainly die. Our mind thinks too much, that's all it does. It thinks it's in charge. It does not want to realize that we are all divine, and that your divine infinite nature is already here inside you now. This divinity is always here, always now, and always flowing.

"The mind turned inwards is the Self; turned outwards, it becomes the ego and all the world."
~Ramana Maharshi

Letting go of the grasping nature of the mind is what allows you to find stillness inside. To tame your mind, focus on the essence of your heart. Randomly, throughout your day, hold your attention for 30 seconds or more on the sensations inside your heart. Watch closely and witness what occurs. Rest in the true essence of your heart. Do this at least 10-15 times a day for the next 3 weeks. Soon your mind will quiet and you will naturally notice the bodily sensations of peace everywhere you go. Know that resting your attention on the heart chakra will bring you a deep and divine connection with everyone and everything.

"There is no such thing as a little freedom. Either you are all free, or you are not free."
~Walter Cronkite

Once you choose to be the master of your mind, the mind becomes a servant to this natural blissful river inside your heart. The mind and its chaotic nature will eventually stop, and become 100% absorbed by the silence and divine power found within every heartbeat. Choose to start mastering your mind today by redirecting your focus repetitively, and excessively on your heart. The awesome spiritual connection that this practice will bring your life is much greater than any major physical accomplishment or monetary dream you could ever achieve.

Learn ancient proven secrets to taming your mind with our guaranteed 90 Day Manifesting Program! Instantly download it today at www.ManifestingVibr ation.com May you feel the inner peace that always resides within.

DO YOU HAVE A CHILD, GRANDCHILD OR KNOW OF A CHILD OF THE CRYSTAL VIBRATION?
SoulSoothers online / CtrOfLight@aol.com

Though many may have had little exposure to them thus far, the time will come when you will become quite aware of their existence because there is a wave of these children being incarnated at this time. Your year 2000 was the turning point ... a signal and a gateway for this wave of children to begin incarnating into your world of physicality. A few select children initially began to arrive in the early months around this time, with more and more coming in as the millennium progresses.

These new arrivals are known as "the Peacemakers", while as you may be aware, the Indigos who have preceded them are called "the Systems Busters". They were named Indigos because of their distinctive indigo color of their aura. They are described as "System Busters" because they are the ones who will uncover and expose the corrupt systems that no longer work for the greatest good of all in your world. They are very intuitive, mental, quick and easily bored ... more of what you might call the "in your face" type, so to speak. While the more serious "system busting" will begin in the very near future, the earlier forerunners have already begun to stir things up.

There were some crystal children that came in the 1960s who were acting as scouts ... testing the waters, so to speak, but it was too soon for humanity to accept them and they were not treated very well, to say the least. They were severely judged and ridiculed because of their indifference to that which you termed "normal" at the time. And as a result, many turned to drugs, or entered into severe states of depression to escape this non-acceptance into society as a whole. You who are older may remember them as "the flower children" or "moon children." Like the Master known as Jesus the Christ, most of these scouts were so judged, but they served the purpose of planting the seeds.

This newest generation of children are called "Crystal children" or "Children of the Crystal Vibration", not because of their aura color like the Indigos, but because of their high vibration which is at the Christ Consciousness level. However, while it hasn't occurred yet, it will be noted in time that crystals are more dominant in the crown chakra, not only in the violet color spectrum, but even in that termed the white and (crystal) clear aura. As an aside here, I might add that the words "Crystal" and "Christ" are very similar and in this respect offer a similar definition ... and not by accident, of course.

With the arrival of the Indigo children, there began a dramatic increase in the number of children being diagnosed as hyperactive or with what the human medical community has labeled as ADD. Soon, however, as the Crystals begin to enter school, they too will be labeled. When you begin to hear the word "autistic" more often, these will be related to the Crystal children because they are so sensitive ... so vulnerable to the world around them because of their extreme sensitivity to surrounding vibrations ... many of which cause them to go inward to disconnect from "normal" humans and do their best to survive in a world where they really do not yet fit.

How do you recognize these new children or some of the forerunners who anchored the necessary energies? The earlier ones who survived ... those that came as early as 3 decades ago ... are not out and about raising havoc, by no means. Those few who are left a re quietly living in relative obscurity, but still stirring away.

As for the new ones who continue to arrive as part of the new wave, I offer you the following list of attributes. Please keep in mind, however, that these attributes are not all inclusive, nor does each Crystal child necessarily exhibit every quality.

... They are extremely sensitive to everything in their environment ... sound, colors, negative emotions in others, smells, food, chemicals, pollutants, the "feel" of clothing, violence and pain of others, group consciousness, electromagnetic frequencies, solar flares ... all of the energies found among humans and your surroundings. The Crystal children are so sensitive that they are deeply vulnerable ... as well as very powerful ... because of their intense vulnerability.

... They must have alone time. They will not live well in groups as few others will understand their need for solitude, balance, rejuvenation, and deep quiet.

... They are truly the essence of their soul's love vibration and it is readily visible in their eyes which have a depthness not noticeable in others. When a Crystal child looks at you, you feel as if they have penetrated your very soul. This attribute provides a sense of self-security at a real early age which causes them to smile often in the early days of life.

... They must have daily communion with nature and the elements. The spirit of nature will help them balance and clear all of the disharmonious energies that affect them so strongly.

... They just plain do not understand "Man's inhumanity to Man" ... war, greed, judgment, hatred, selfishness, etc., and thus can easily feel totally overwhelmed by it all.

... If life should become too intense, or if they are traumatized or see and feel others being traumatized, they will often withdraw and disconnect from society in order to protect themselves.

... Despite being quiet and self-effacing, many will admire and be drawn to them like a magnet. They will have deep and lasting connections with humans who offer the unconditional love that the Crystal knows is the only true Love.

... They really need very little traditional parenting as they are gentle, wise, and will be able to tell you what they need, as well as what is good or not good for them.

... Most will often avoid crowds or malls, as they become uncomfortable in trying to cope with the too many different energies and vibrations at such places.

... They have a deep love for children and animals, and a remarkable way of connecting with all creatures of nature.

... Water is very beneficial in clearing and soothing them. Most will therefore love baths, showers, waterfalls, fountains, playing in water and sand.

... They require comfortable clothing of their choice of natural fibers and colors. The clothing must "feel" right to them.

... They require lots of pure water and will often prefer fresh organic food.

... It is not uncommon for these children to let their parents know the name they wish to be called before they are born, and engage in other direct communication.

... Miracles and magic happens around them ... money appears, animals seek them out, other babies smile at them, healings occur naturally and spontaneously.

... They are extremely empathic to the point of knowing what a complete stranger in the street is feeling ... even at a very early age.

... They have a fear of intimacy because they so easily feel invaded, not respected. They would rather be alone than have their "personal body space" disregarded. They may also avoid romantic relationships for fear of hurting another if the relationship ends.

... There is an innocence, a guilelessness, a purity about them that is due to the absence of an ego.

... They may need help in learning to ground their energy with physical activity, nature, sports, martial arts, or such things as yoga or dance.

... They may disrupt electrical appliances, radios, TVs, computers.

... They often refrain from showing emotion for fear of its amplification and losing control. This can make them appear to be flat or passionless.

... They can feel responsible for someone dying or getting hurt or even fighting.

... They can have periods of deep depression.

... They respond well to body work, massage, and energy work by someone who is within themself balanced. Massage, healing energy and cranio-sacral therapy may at times be crucial to keeping their bodies healthy and pain-free.

... They will often have a high metabolism and be natural vegetarians.

... They are bright, "big-picture" individuals with an instinctual understanding of the spiritual laws, and of how the whole process of life all works because they have this inner knowing of who they really are.

... They have a clear connection to their Higher Self, naturally accessing their highest guidance. It is precisely because of this connection that they know the truth of spiritual Oneness.

... They are natural healers and peacemakers.

... They are multi-talented.

... They are capable of regenerating bone and tissue. Where most of you are gradually being upgraded ... ascending to the Crystal energy ... it is already in their DNA.

... They may be individuals of a few words, but everyone listens when they quietly express their wisdom with humility. However, they will not give advice without being asked and will never interfere.

Keeping all this in mind, it is possible to get a good picture or feeling of what the Crystal children are like and what they are here for. If you use your intuitive abilities to tune into the energy of these children, and create Oneness with them, the result on the planet will be astounding ... that which you call "miraculous."

Do you not find a familiarity with any of these attributes? If so, you may have or know of a Child of the Crystal Vibration. Know that the love that is showered to this child is not only well deserved, but will be returned to all many times over.

I leave you with this thought by asking you to become familiar with and recognize these many unusual attributes and know that this Child of the Crystal Vibration ... as with all ... can assimilate and magnify the vibrations of others ... those labeled both "good" as well as those labeled "bad", for it is very important and necessary that these be discernable and understood by those close to a Crystal child.

SPACE, BREATH & FREEDOM

We thought you might enjoy these quotations, some of which are from Dennis Lewis.

"Between stimulus and response, there is a space. In that space lies our freedom and power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and freedom"
-- Victor Frankl, "Man's Search for Meaning"

"It is the empty space in the center
of the wheel which enables it to be used.
Mold clay into a vessel:
It is the emptiness within
that creates the usefulness of the vessel.
Cut out doors and windows in a house;
it is the empty space inside
that creates the usefulness of the house.
Thus, what we have may be something substantial,
But its usefulness lies in the unoccupied, empty space."
--Lao Tzu,
"Tao Te Ching"

"To experience the natural healing power of breath is to experience its inherent 'spaciousness. ' Our breath can not only move upward and downward to help us experience our own verticality, but it can also move inward and outward to expand and connect our inner spaces with the space of the so-called outer world. In the same way that our experience of external space allows us to differentiate and relate to each other and the various objects and processes of the outer world, our experience of the internal spaces, the 'chambers' of our bodies and psyches, allow us to differentiate the various functions and energies of our organism and keep them in dynamic harmony."
--Dennis Lewis, "The Tao of Natural Breathing"

"The sensation of the body can be experienced at many different levels, and it is just this organic experience of various levels, of various densities of sensation, that begins to give us a taste of internal spaciousness. These levels include the sensation of superficial aches and pains; the compact sensation of the weight and form of the body; the more subtle sensation of temperature, movement, and touch; the tingling sensation of the totality of the skin; the living, breathing sensation of the inner structure of the fascia, the muscles, the organs, the fluids, and the bones; and the integrative, vibratory sensation of the body's energy centers and pathways.

But there is one more level of sensation that we are given as our birthright. This is the all-encompassing sensation of openness that lies at the heart of being. As our sensation begins to open up, as we sense a broader frequency of vibration in our experience of ourselves (a vibration that includes instead of excluding), we come into touch with the sensation of the energy of life itself?before it is conditioned by the rigid mental, emotional, and physical forms of the society in which we live, and, even more importantly, by our own self-image. As we learn more and more about how to allow this direct sensation of life into our experience of ourselves, we feel a growing spaciousness, a sense of wonder in which the restrictions of our self-image can begin to dissolve. It is the organic experience of this essential spaciousness that embraces the various polarities and contradictions of our lives, the various manifestations of yin and yang, and allows them to exist side by side in our being without reaction. This inner, organic embrace, this sensory acceptance of everything that we are, frees not only our body but also our mind and feelings, bringing us a new sense of vitality and wholeness."
--Dennis Lewis, "The Tao of Natural Breathing"

"As you begin to pay more attention to your breath, you will notice that your body itself is a huge breathing space, made up of smaller spaces such as your chest, back, belly, and pelvis. Though we were designed to breathe utilizing all of these breathing spaces to varying degrees, the movement of the breath likes to go where there is ease and comfort. When one or another area is tight or uncomfortable, which is often associated with negative or anxious thoughts and emotions, as well as with any past physical or emotional traumas, the movement of the breath has a difficult time engaging that area, and so our breath becomes unbalanced or disharmonious in some way.

See if you can notice now any areas in your body where your breathing seems impeded or restricted. Pay particular attention to your belly and back. And, whenever you can remember to do so at other times of the day, notice whether certain thoughts, emotions, postures, movements, situations, conversations, news, and so on have the effect of opening or constricting your overall sense of your breathing spaces.

It may be helpful to keep a breathing diary. Write down how you experience your breathing spaces in different situations and with different people. Over time you will discover that awareness of the changing nature of your breath helps awaken a more intimate relationship with all the aspects of your life."
--From "The Breath of Presence: Awakening to Who We Really Are," by Dennis Lewis

"... it is through the heart, and especially through feelings such as love, compassion, and appreciation, that we can truly open to receive and embrace life. We need only remember times when such feelings were present in our hearts to realize the way in which they opened us to ourselves and others. We know that it is only through a more open heart that we can find a real sense of spaciousness in our lives." --Dennis Lewis, "Free Your Breath, Free Your Life"

RELAX, YOU'RE ALREADY PERFECT
by Mary Grace McCord

New Jersey author, metaphysician, psychologist, and empowerment guru Bruce Schneider, Ph.D., says he first realized he was perfect when, at age 18, he was almost killed by a drunk driver. His months of recovery brought a burning question - "Why was my life spared, and what is my purpose?" - along with an intense sense of gratitude for receiving a second chance.

His 2000 best seller Relax, You're Already Perfect: 10 Spiritual Lessons to Remember clearly resonates for people in many walks of life. It's about finding and following your bliss, whether you're an auto mechanic or a computer wonk, florist, physician, or bank teller. It asks deep philosophical questions concerning the nature of your work versus the nature of you, because only when our life's work truly reflects our purpose and our passion can we relax, reflect and deeply know that each of us is, indeed, a perfect creation.

Schneider found inner peace, joy and understanding by using centering techniques outlined in the book, which he will describe during the 90-minute Relax seminar session. ?Our goal, moment by moment,? he says, ?is to simply remember what we were born knowing, that we are whole in and of ourselves. We do not need others to make us happy, once we know that happiness is truly an inside job. To place one's own happiness into a lover's hands not only renders us powerless, it hoists an intolerable and unfair burden onto the ones we love.

"Things do not happen to us, they happen through us, and so each experience has a purpose," he says. Each moment describes who you are, then and there. It also reminds us that we are all connected by shared experience. We are here to discover why we are here by finding out what love is, and what it is not.

Here are the book's 10 lessons:

1. The Universe Is Perfect

2. To Find God, Just Look In The Mirror

3. Love Is The Answer (Unconditionally)

4. The World Is An Illusion

5. We Are Each Here For A Very Special Reason

6. Live For Abundance

7. We Are Eternal Beings

8. Love Yourself

9. Surround Yourself With Love

10. Direct The Universe

A second theme, throughout, is the active manifestation of joyful abundance. "As a former athlete I always used meditation and centering to get in the zone before a big game," Bruce remembers. "So why not employ psychoneuroimmunology, invoking the mind/body connection, to minimize stress and maximize homeostatic balance in the biggest game of all," he says: "Life."

"Employ all the senses," he adds, "and then actively visualize specifically what you want many times a day - an instant play of your favorite movie, the true essence of you. The universe wants to give us the things we want that help the world achieve its greatest, highest good. It's up to us to articulate specifically what we want, and then to make sure that everything that we do (including our jobs) makes the best use of our talents and energies."

"We can change the language, thoughts and images that we throw at ourselves constantly," says Schneider. "Of course we can. If we can't, who can? And not only that," he smirks. "What have we got to lose anyway?"

Through centering we lose the ample, rampant and random distractions of our five senses. Centering connects the individual mind with the Universal Mind, which knows all. It also helps us relax, heal, and use the power of the Universal Energy to create ultimate happiness and joyful abundance in our lives.

For me, Schneider's most effective visualization technique is called The Theatre. Here, you visualize walking into a magnificent, palatial venue where you have really looked forward to being - a place as exquisite and yet as comforting as The Fox.

But the fun part is, you're the sole invisible observer of a dress rehearsal rather than an actual performance. As each character appears, dressed, choreographed and made up to consistently advance his or her part of the plot, the director peels away all the excess movement and any words that don't ring true. At this pivotal point, everything is up for grabs; this is the last time to change nuances that are already finely crafted and well rehearsed, but that simply may not serve the action of the story. ItΉs an unblocking of all unnecessary energy, and its goal is joyful abundance. You guessed it; in this exercise as in real life, you are the star, the director, the audience and the action. It's all about you, and it's all good.

To manifest joyful abundance is to:

* Transcend negative thoughts and feelings.

* Tap into the ultimate source of energy.

* Develop our intuitive ability.

* Accomplish more with less effort.

* Deal effectively with negative people.

* Emotionally connect with your personal mission for this life.

Isn't this a play we'd all like to write, direct, and star in? The good news is, we can. It happens when we reach that deliciously unmistakable conclusion that we really can relax because indeed, we are already perfect.

HOW TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR HEART
Vivekananda

Swami Vivekananda a great spiritual teacher of the 20th century in one of his landmark lectures during his tour of the United States once spoke about "How to Take Care of Your Heart"

Here is the extract of his speech:

"It is one of the evils of your civilization that you are after intellectual education alone, and take no care of the heart. It only makes men ten times more selfish, and that will be your destruction. When there is conflict between the heart and the brain, let the heart be followed, because intellect has only one state, reason, and within that, intellect works, and cannot get beyond.

It is the heart which takes one to the highest plane, which intellect can never reach; it goes beyond intellect, and reaches to what is called inspiration. Intellect can never become inspired; only the heart when it is enlightened, becomes inspired.

An intellectual, heartless man never becomes an inspired man. It is always the heart that speaks in the man of love; it discovers a greater instrument than intellect can give you, the instrument of inspiration. Just as the intellect is the instrument of knowledge, so is the heart the instrument of inspiration. In a lower state it is a much weaker instrument than intellect. An ignorant man knows nothing, but he is a little emotional by nature. Compare him with a great professor -- what wonderful power the latter possesses! But the professor is bound by his intellect, and he can be a devil and an intellectual man at the same time; but the man of heart can never be a devil; no man with emotion was ever a devil. Properly cultivated, the heart can be changed, and will go beyond intellect; it will be changed into inspiration.

Man will have to go beyond intellect in the end. The knowledge of man, his powers of perception, of reasoning and intellect and heart, all are busy churning this milk of the world. Out of long churning comes butter, and this butter is God. Men of heart get the "butter", and the "buttermilk" is left for the intellectual.

These are all preparations for the heart, for that love, for that intense sympathy appertaining to the heart. He further adds, "If you are not pure, and you know all the sciences in the world, that will not help you at all; you may be buried in all the books you read, but that will not be of much use. It is the heart that reaches the goal. Follow the heart. A pure heart sees beyond the intellect; it gets inspired; it knows things that reason can never know, and whenever there is conflict between the pure heart and the intellect, always side with the pure heart, even if you think what your heart is doing is unreasonable.

When it is desirous of doing good to others, your brain may tell you that it is not politic to do so, but follow your heart, and you will find that you make less mistakes than by following your intellect. The pure heart is the best mirror for the reflection of truth, so all these disciplines are for the purification of the heart. And as soon as it is pure, all truths flash upon it in a minute; all truth in the universe will manifest in your heart, if you are sufficiently pure.

The great truths about atoms, and the finer elements, and the fine perceptions of men, were discovered ages ago by men who never saw a telescope, or a microscope, or a laboratory. How did they know all these things? It was through the heart; they purified the heart. It is open to us to do the same today; it is the culture of the heart, really, and not that of the intellect that will lessen the misery of the world.

Intellect has been cultured with the result that hundreds of sciences have been discovered, and their effect has been that the few have made slaves of the many -- that is all the good that has been done. Artificial wants have been created; and every poor man, whether he has money or not, desires to have those wants satisfied, and when he cannot, he struggles, and dies in the struggle.

This is the result. Through the intellect is not the way to solve the problem of misery, but through the heart. If all this vast amount of effort had been spent in making men purer, gentler, more forbearing, this world would have a thousand-fold more happiness than it has today. Always cultivate the heart; through the heart the Lord speaks, and through the intellect you yourself speak."

AMMACHI-BLISS MOTHER'S TEACHINGS

Beloveds,
Kel and I had another fantastic visit with Amma yesterday in Albuquerque, N.M. Here is a letter I sent to a sister in spirit about this time with Amma.

Hiya Lynn,
Got this (pasta diet-see below) from Marge and laughed a bunch...will include it in upcoming newsletters. Kel and I are still blissed from being with Ammachi yesterday. She always blows my socks off. She has been a good teacher for me with regard to impatience and control in the past.

She has been helping me with increasing my faith in my ability to heal myself with Goddess' loving support. Sometimes I spend too much energy on what's wrong with me rather than being in gratitude for the bounty of good. And also dwell too much on the enormous task yet to be done in healing humanity, rather than on the great opportunity we all have in being in body.

Amma sent the most precious child and her father to sit next to me yesterday as we were waiting to go up for our hug. The little girl must have been 10-12 months of age, a totally gorgeous east Indian baby, who was severely deformed. The child was a teaching for me and all those who have the privilege of being in her presence. Amma suggested that I celebrate this child and her willingness and gift of being able to be in body, being here to get thru some (if not all) of her karma. She is working it out this way.

It was like Ma was saying "get off this obsession with rightness of form, stop worrying, be happy." What a powerful teaching. Grateful am I to this Mother and all of the fabulous ways she teaches me.

Love you sweet dreamer,
Young Toni

EAR CANDLING--ANCIENT HEALING

It occurred to me after we sent off the last newsletter addendum that in the article where Kelley shares his story about how he moved Agent Orange out of his body, we did not mention the ear candling we did to help him out.

Ear candling is an ancient practice that has been used since ancient Egypt, Babylon and other civilizations. It consists of inserting a lit paraffin or beeswax muslin candle into the ear while a person is reclining on their side. The tube like candle will draw from the inner ear and associated body parts toxins and tension.

It is a magnificent healing practice. It works beautifully to pull from us non supportive stuck energy. The draw of the candle will pull matter from your back, neck, bronchials, jaw (TMJ), face and allow you to let go and relax.

Needless to say , Kelley needed some of this kind of help as the toxins he was releasing in his healing crisis with agent Orange were choosing to come out of his left jaw and inner ear.

We candled him twice about a week and a half apart. We used three ear candles each time because that is what his body wanted. Normally you only need one or two in each ear.

After the second candling (about two days later), He said he felt stuff was coming out. Boy did it! For three days in a row, I used about 6-8 Q-tips and extracted a bunch of gunk that was very black like tar with an orange tint to it. No wonder he couldn't hear thru that ear!

A CALL TO MOTHER’S GRACE AND GIFTS
new book
Young Toni Delgado

Leonard Orr, Father of the Rebirthing Movement, says of this book: "It is a fantastically powerful book. All Rebirthers should own a copy."

“Without a Divine Mother there is no Life. She is First Mover, She is First Cause and Effect. Without Her Intent for Creation, no Creation is feasible. She is the Womb of Creation. She is the Originator, the Activator, the Place of Gestation, the Trusting Parent who releases us into the Celebration of Life. Thru Her all things are possible and all possibilities exist.”
