In this enlightening episode, we discover how the words we use accidentally constrict our connection with The Divine. After experiencing a stroke that led to an extraordinary conversation with The Divine, host, Elaine Starling, embarked on a quest to understand how to tap into unconditional love and Divine guidance.Through introspection and research, she uncovered a crucial realization about the words she was using. The word "allow," often touted in spiritual circles, took on a new meaning for her—one of control and fear. This prompted her to shift her perspective and adopt the word "welcome" instead, embracing a loving partnership with The Divine.Delving deeper, she explores other disempowering words like "how," "why," "try," "should," "need," “want,” and "but," offering insightful alternatives that empower rather than constrain. By replacing these words with ones like "what," "choose," "trust," and "and," she demonstrates how language shapes our reality and vibrational frequency.Through personal anecdotes and practical tips, she illuminates the path to reclaiming personal power and aligning with divine guidance. Join her on this transformative journey of linguistic empowerment and learn how to harness the power of words to manifest your highest potential.Simple shifts in language can catalyze profound transformations in your relationship with The Divine and your experience of life itself.About the Host, Elaine Starling: (bio, personal links, resource links)An international TEDx speaker, bestselling author, coach and mentor, Elaine Starling is recognized for her video show and podcast, The Abundance Journey.After a comprehensive conversation with our higher power during a stroke, Elaine created The Abundance Journey 6 week course to share what she learned.
