Sub 31: Mindfulness: Being In The Present Moment
Subject 26: Navigating Your Desert as a Millennial w/India
Navigating Your
Desert
w/India
Today's class will be held by the lovely India Isabella (me)! I'm Lalah's daughter, and I serve as a VHD team member for those who don't know. I'm so overjoyed to be sharing my insight on the desert terrain, as I'm currently journeying through one in this season of my life. Being that I am indeed a Gen Z, I'm fully aware of the significance of acknowledging, recognizing, and knowing how to navigate through your desert early on in life, something my mother taught me the significance of recognizing and honoring.
Throughout life, we may be called to go to a sacred place within ourselves, to purge, receive, release, make space for new, disconnect, become "you" again, open ourselves up for spiritual growth, enter a new season/ chapter in your life, and so much more!
In this video, I'll be giving you a fresh perspective on how to successfully recognize and navigate your desert to help you reach your fullest potential. Because ultimately, that's what it's all about! :)
“Sometimes, you have to go be alone to come back and be better. Solitude is sacred.”

Subject 24: Navigating This Life
Navigating This Life
Our life is supposed to empower and fortify us into higher, divine, and necessary action.
So much is going on in various directions, and we are feeling it deeply, spiritually, mentally, emotionally, energetically, physically, and vibrationally in so many ways.
Many of us are looking for our place, balance, purpose, way, peace, and power in it all. We are being called into awareness; another inner and outer awakening is happening, as it always does in times such as these. We're able to see this tug-of-war between high vibrations and low, within or without, near and far. We’re being called to rise into our higher potential on all levels, all the more.
In this class, we journey into it.
“Be in the world, but not of it.”
Navigating This Life
Talking Points
Realize Your Role:
In order to navigate this life, it is essential for us to awaken to our true purpose and embrace the divinely assigned roles we embody as earth angels, warriors, vessels, and conduits. Each of these roles serves a unique purpose in our journey towards self-realization, spiritual growth, and the bigger picture. As earth angels, we are messengers of divine love and light, spreading compassion and positivity wherever we go. As warriors, we face the challenges and obstacles that come our way with strength, equanimity, and resilience, conquering our fears and doubts. As vessels, we open ourselves up to receive divine guidance, insights, and inspiration, allowing ourselves to be conduits of higher wisdom and truth. It is by accepting and embracing these roles that we can truly unleash our potential and make a positive impact not only in our own lives but also in the lives of those around us. We are not mere spectators on this journey but rather active participants fulfilling our sacred purpose as divine earth angels, warriors, vessels, and conduits.
Honor Your Spiritual Instincts:
An empowered, healthy, and balanced spiritual life means honoring and living according to your spiritual instincts. By doing so, you align yourself with the divine wisdom that resides within you. It is a union of the physical and metaphysical, where your thoughts and actions reflect the deep connection you have with the universe. This conscious integration allows you to tap into your inner guidance, making decisions that align with your higher purpose. When you listen to your spiritual instincts, you honor the unique path that has been laid out for you, embracing the lessons and growth that come along the way. Taking the time to cultivate a strong spiritual foundation not only nourishes your soul, but it also provides a steady anchor in the midst of life's challenges. As you navigate the ups and downs of existence, your spiritual instincts guide you towards choices that promote well-being, love, and harmony. Trusting in the wisdom of your inner compass, you embark on a journey towards self-discovery and self-actualization. Remember, an empowered, healthy, and balanced spiritual life is a continuous process of nurturing your connection and seeking alignment with your core essence.
Spiritual and Lifestyle Protocol:
A code or system you live by that honors your spiritual values.
What lifestyle protocol best supports who you are on a spirit level? Whether it be a nutritional path, self-care ritual, types of people/relationships in your life, type of environment you’re in and keep, or foods, entertainment, and information you consume, what sustains you? What depletes you of spiritual power?
Set Spiritual Boundaries:
Spiritual boundaries are an essential aspect of our existence. They enable us to embody our true nature and navigate through life with authenticity and purpose. These boundaries serve as a barrier, separating what aligns with our highest good from what does not. As spiritual beings, it is crucial to recognize that these boundaries are not about excluding or rejecting others but rather about fostering a strong, harmonious connection to our higher power, selves, purpose, intentions, and higher alignment. By establishing and upholding these boundaries, we ensure that our energy remains focused on what resonates with our purpose and contributes positively to the world around us. It's a constant practice of discernment, a continuous commitment to living in alignment with our highest truth, and a way to honor and protect our spiritual well-being.

Observe in Equanimity:
Remain mindful and alert. When you're observant, you have more power to respond instead of reacting. This is part of practicing equanimity. Observe without absorbing. Observe with equanimity. Distinguish what's yours and what's someone else's vibration or projections.
Expand, Flow, and Grow in Spiritual Courage:
Acknowledge any areas you're being called to show up, develop, expand, grow more into, and serve in, as well as to release, let go, and move on from. Take a moment to reflect on the spaces within your life where you feel the pull to step up and fully inhabit your potential. These are the areas where you can let your light shine and make a difference. Embrace the opportunities for growth and expansion that come your way, they are the catalysts for your personal evolution. At the same time, honor the importance of releasing what no longer serves you. Letting go can be a powerful act of self-love and liberation, allowing space for new experiences, relationships, and possibilities. Embrace the dual nature of this journey, the dance between stepping forward and letting go, as you navigate through the ebb and flow of life. Trust the wisdom of your intuition and the guidance of your higher self as you navigate these paths of growth and transformation. Remember, every step forward is an act of spiritual courage, and every release is an invitation for new blessings to enter your life.
Sacred Covenants You Live By:
When you fully embrace the role of a spiritual vessel, warrior, creative, and conduit, you enter into a realm where spiritual laws become the guiding force behind your decisions and actions. These sacred principles passionately govern your choices and determine what you engage in and refrain from in your daily life. By adhering to these divine covenants, you not only show respect for the gift and purpose residing within you, but you also honor the divine presence that flows through you. Initially, others may struggle to understand this profound shift in your life and perspective, yet as you remain steadfast in your faith and connection to your Higher Power, the path you traverse and the calling you embody become increasingly apparent to those around you. I have experienced this first-hand.
Stay Fortified in Your Spirit:
Fortify yourself by committing to your sacred work each day. Take the time to prioritize activities that sharpen your mind, nourish your body, strengthen your spirit, honor your soul, and elevate your vibration. Engaging in these practices empowers you, ensuring that you can show up fully prepared and in your power, ready to face whatever comes your way on your journey. Remember the wise words, "If you stay ready, you don't have to get ready!" So, embrace this mantra and dedicate yourself to consistently nurturing all aspects of your being, enabling you to remain composed and poised as you navigate through day-to-day life.
Integrate Your Shadow:
You can be gracious, virtuous, and assertive. This is where you stop being a ‘yes’ person and step into your worth/spiritual power. You now begin to embrace your shadow by giving it a healthier role. Which is setting in place your ‘sacred nos’ and standing up for yourself and truth wherever need be. This is not about being overly assertive by giving in to toxic habits and gratifying reactions, you’re being called to transcend and transmute all of that. It’s alchemy time!! Your higher potential, higher purpose, higher good, and higher path all require you to be integrated with your authentic power. It’s about incorporating your transmuted strengths, not dumbing them down, and living your power with them.
Once integrated, your shadow is now operating at a higher purpose to serve you and not control you. No more running wild!! The game changes, and people feel it. This is where and when people will say, “you’ve changed,” “there’s something different about you,” and they even ask for your help and guidance in doing the same.
A well-balanced soul is an inspiring one. Shadow work took me a while. It took letting go of who and what didn’t serve me and spending time in the spiritual desert where profound spiritual alchemy and healing happen.
Introspection
How are you feeling?
How is your heart?
Are you navigating in your power and gifts?
Do you feel empowered enough?
Do you know how to navigate forward? Is there clarity?
Reflection
Which role/s are you?
What areas are you navigating empowered in your personal life?
How about in the wider world? What areas are you navigating?
What areas are you feeling ? In what areas do you feel pure joy?
How can you fortify yourself to show up poised and in your power? How can you overcome distractions in your way?
What shadows (limiting beliefs, fears, habits, traits, patterns, and so on) can you transmute into strengths and positives?
What does emerging from all you’re navigating through transformed, look and feel like?
Journey in grace
and power.

Subject 23: How I Stepped Into My Purpose w/ Fear and an Imperfect Past
How I Stepped Into My Purpose with Fear and an Imperfect Past
We are vessels, not just empty shells, but conduits through which the Divine's energy flows. It is through this divine energy that we become change agents, transforming ourselves and the world around us.
Vibrating higher daily is the key that unlocks our potential, allowing us to grow, thrive, and rise to the heights that we were destined for.
As we embark on this journey of self-actualization, we begin to notice a shift within ourselves. We feel a greater sense of well-being, as if every cell in our body is humming in harmony with divine alignment and higher purpose. We become aware of the wholeness that comes from aligning with our true authentic self, our soul’s true identity. It’s in this alignment that we truly tap into our power, allowing us to serve the Divine, ourselves, others, and our journey in a much higher capacity.
Vibrating higher daily is not just a mere catchphrase; it is a practical path to reclaiming our power and living it. When we live in alignment with our purpose, we no longer feel the need to seek fulfillment in all the wrong places. We understand that true fulfillment comes from pursuing and living our higher purpose and embracing our authentic soul identity.
So, as we continue on this journey of vibrating higher daily, we must remember its significance. It’s a lifestyle choice as a means of reclaiming our power, of living with intention and purpose. Each day becomes an opportunity to align ourselves with the divine energy that flows through us, allowing us to become the greatest version of ourselves and make a positive impact on the world around us. Let us embrace this path and vibrate higher daily.
Our purpose is always a part of our healing and our ongoing development and expansion, which is why it's essential to do what you're here to do to reach your fuller, higher potential self.
No matter what you've been through or how much fear or confusion may be clouding your higher path forward, the 'path' is real and ready for you to fully drop into it.
All you've been through has fortified you. You're more ready than you may realize. Start where you can, no matter how big, how small, or what level. Just get in where you fit in for now, that's how all you'll need to level up comes to you and finds you.
Doing the day-to-day work of vibrating higher is how your purpose reveals itself more and more.
In this video, I share about overcoming all that I had to overcome to step into my purpose and shift into a new timeline, destiny, and reality.
“Don’t let people edit down your higher visions because of their self-doubt and lack of divine insight into your higher purpose.”

Introspection
Where are you at purpose-wise? Are you currently living in your purpose?
If not, begin to look within and take note of what your passions and gifts are and what you feel called and led to do in the world that will put you in sacred service. Maybe it's something in the world that is a pain point for you. Put your passion and pain together, and begin to offer and serve.
Your gifts were created to be part of the plan and will continue to reveal themselves as you journey forward with purpose and with an open heart and mind.
If you are already operating in your purpose, are you showing up fully? Are you embodying your purpose with courage? Does your daily lifestyle and environment support you as a vessel and conduit?
Do you have a support system? How will you cultivate it or call it in?
Are there any relationships, habits, cycles, or patterns that hinder you from living in your higher purpose? If so, what can you do to rise up/out, and overcome a life that doesn't serve or support who you are here to be?
Realize that you are enough and that your gifts, callings, and purpose are necessary.
The right people will get that.

Subject 19: Mind-Care
Mind Care
Stillness, Mind Hacks + Composure
“No longer reacting to people who trigger who is one of the best ways to strengthen your spiritual muscles.”– Lalah Delia
There are many reasons why you may desire to still your mind, to mind hack, and to gain deeper composure. Maybe it’s due to a spiritual path you’re feeling a strong call to embark on, a path that urges you to delve into the depths of your being and connect with your higher self. Maybe you need the stillness to focus on healing, recovering, and restoring, to give yourself the time and space needed to mend and grow. Perhaps you desire to slow your life and your thoughts down, to escape the chaos and busyness of the outside world, and instead find solace in the serene depths of your own thoughts, leading to a more nourished being and inner peace. Maybe it’s to take your power back, to reclaim your sense of self, and assert your autonomy in a world that often tries to dictate who you should be. Perhaps it's to heighten your creativity, to tap into the wellspring of inspiration that lies within you, and bring forth your unique creative expressions into the world. Or maybe it’s to take a stand and to signal a clear boundary, to communicate to yourself and others that you are deserving of respect, tranquility, and mental clarity. Whatever your inspiration may be, know that stillness is not just a mere absence of noise or movement, it’s a powerful and intentional spiritual response that promotes peace, harmony, and a composed spirit and life.
“Stillness and composure are how you find yourself again, and align with The Divine.”
