Shine That Light! by Sylvie Roy

Lightworker Magazine Cover

I remember when I first started getting accustomed to the idea of being a Lightworker.  Curled up with Doreen Virtue’s book, The Lightworker’s Way, I read through a list of attributes that characterize lightworkers and came across the very last one: “you know that you are here for a higher purpose, even if you are unsure what it is or how to fulfill it.”  Wow.  There was a group of people out there that even hesitant, confused, well-meaning souls like mine could identify with!

Since that light bulb (pardon the pun!) went off, the synchronicities in my world have been popping up everywhere and picking up speed.  It seems that knowing a bit more about what you are, and having a name for it – lightworker – makes a world of difference in helping you find that higher purpose.  You can imagine my excitement when back in January 2010, I came across Lightworker Magazine – yes, a free, online magazine dedicated to our group of shiny happy people!  Not only was it a fabulous read, but it was also brand new, further fueling my excitement that more of us out there were becoming aware of our inner spark.

It didn’t take long for me to get in touch with the editor, and by the time the March issue came out, I had my own monthly column – Studying at the University of Life – where I could share the wacky lessons I encounter each day.  Each month though, the excitement surrounding this great mag keeps growing with cool articles, amazing writers, and now – face-to-face events being held in cities the world over!

Each month, Focus the Light discussion groups are taking place and all lightworkers are invited to join the fun! The concept is simple – by gathering like-minded people and using thought, discussion and intention, we create a wonderful new wave of energy that will shine even more light into the world. Each of us is filled with insights that are just itching to get out there, and Focus the Light discussion groups help us share those nuggets of wisdom with our peers and beyond.

A different topic is presented each month and explored by discussing three questions to help us get deep into the core of the subject at hand.   A few short meditations are included as well to ground all this wonderful, newly created energy into reality.  And when the next issue of Lightworker Magazine comes out, you can look forward to reading about the highlights of not only your group, but all other groups meeting around the world!

So whether you join me in Toronto or find a Focus the Light group in another city, I’m excited that we have this opportunity to connect and shine even more love and goodness out into the world!

Anxious to connect with Lightworker Magazine right away?  You can check out the magazine online, find it on Facebook, join the fun on Posterous or follow @LightworkerMag on Twitter!

Lots of love, light and smiles! :-)
