A Soulbyte is a spark of the infinitesimal, a portion of the endless wisdom and the magic from which we all come, to which we all innately have access, and to which we will all one day return.

Our Daily Soulbytes are channeled messages posted early in the morning. They are meant as support and helpful guidance for navigating life’s many twists and turns. We encourage all of our readers to feel the energy of each day themselves and to make responsible choices and decisions.

One person can change the world. You are seeing that in action right now. It is very clear that one person’s agenda has the power to change, to destroy, to force belief systems and to turn people against each other. If that is so, it is equally so that one person can change the world in another direction as well. The power of good has never met an opponent it could not defeat. Turn away from the anger and toward the good. Find the good first within your own heart, as we have been suggesting, and then naturally your good will enter into the world you interact with every day. How could it not?

All our love,

365 Days of Drawing Meditation

Scratchboard pads

Just wanted to let everyone know that we have added a New Sidebar Feature: 365 Days of Drawing Meditation, just below the “Add Riverwalker to your phone” feature.

We thought we would share the drawings Jan has made so far to meet her 2026 New Year Challenge of drawing one drawing a day, with a wooden stick, in small scratchboard pads. Originally, we gave the scratchboard pads as Halloween treats and Jan soon began drawing in the leftovers. She loved it and has not stopped since! In fact, most of the drawings she has now been doing to illustrate our posts are done on the same scratchboard pads. Her New Year’s intention is to keep drawing, one a day, while meditating. So check back often to see how it’s going!

Here’s a link to the sidebar.

We notice, from our perspective on the other side, that the world has a lot going on right now. Some things might appear to be detrimental and others upbuilding and positive. But keep in mind that both activities, operating simultaneously, indicate that much energy is going into changing things, and fast. It is possible for positive outcome to result from even the most horrendous of activities. Keep your own focus on the inner knowing you are establishing within yourself as you work on staying heart-centered. For the truth is that this time of change is critical. As we take in the larger picture, we see just how important it is. Stay connected to the idea that these times are extremely important and positive rather than just extremely detrimental. That attitude alone will help the cause of good.

All our love,

As part of the world continues to show that it does not want to stop ramping up rage and discontent, another part of the world continues to show that peace is possible. To be in alignment with peace, within and without, is surely a worthwhile activity. The more people who are active in setting the goal of peace within, through practices such as heart-centered breathing, the more they engage peace in the world around them. When you are at peace within yourself, then everyone you come into contact with will be affected by that peace as well.

All our love,

We suggest continued use of heart-centered opening so you can more often and more easily find your way to this place of calmness. With daily practice it will become your default mode of operation, just as it is ours. When you operate almost all the time from a place of calmness you begin to notice that things don’t bother you so much. You are less distracted by the news and more in tune with a gentler approach to life. You feel more loving, forgiving, and accepting of all that is. We highly suggest continued practice in this exercise.

All our love,
