Heart/Mind

February 16, 2015

There is much to say about the complexities of the mind and the activation of the heart to establish the heart/mind connection. This connection bypasses the ego, as the heart is not connected to the ego and never has been. The heart generates its own ‘thoughts’ as it has true intelligence without the conflicts that the mind conjures. The ego operates through the mind. This is why your spiritual evolution is linked to the activation of the heart.

The virtues of forgiveness, gratitude, appreciation, understanding, tolerance, patience, compassion, and valor all reside within the heart. The mind is a computer that reasons and makes factual decisions. It is also the seat of your fear, anger, depression, and judgment. This is why decisions made solely with the mind don’t often work out. When the heart and the mind are conjoined, the decisions that you make are made with the intelligence of the mind and the virtues of the heart. The heart filters out the ego as it does not recognize it. The mind does not want the heart involved in its decisions, and will fight for its control. That is why quick decisions are empty.

The world is made of glass. It can be shattered at any moment. Decisions made solely from the mind do not reinforce your life which resides behind the glass, which is your true self. Life is not meant to be lived in support of the illusion that has been created for you and upheld by you. The true things in life that matter are not accessed by the mind. Those things are accessed through the heart, where true lasting happiness resides!

Where does the intelligence of the heart come from? Within the heart lies the connection to your higher self and that of Universal Consciousness. This is why the heart has the ability to guide you and show you the truth in any situation. Lasting connection with the heart requires intention that is reinforced daily. When you learn through intention and practice to connect your mind [thoughts] with your heart, you will live a happier and more peaceful life. This way of living shatters the illusion and brings you information that leads you to the truth of your being and the world. When you find this place of authenticity and grace, you will have all that you desire. Nothing will be withheld from you and you will gift this energy to others, who will see this peace and understanding within you and want it for themselves. If you do nothing else in the world but this, you will have created a ripple that will affect many and it all started with you. You are a force of good in the world. Believe and conceive a better life for yourself. Be well, Be love ♥

Perception

January 25, 2015

With all that seems to be happening in the world right now, it is most important to take a few pauses during your day to reset yourself and restore balance. Peace of mind and balance within your being is imperative at this time. So much is going on so quickly, and there are some that are having a very hard time; it is you who must be the anchor in such times as these.

A strong connection to your heart and a willingness to see things differently than you have perceived them in the past, brings new countenance to your life. Being open to seeing things differently will open new facets of clarity in your life that weren’t apparent to you before. In addition, this will assist you with cleansing, clearing, and forgiveness which is an ongoing process.

Being able to see things from a different perspective opens the door to new and positive ways of dealing with same situations. This will bypass the ego that wants you to continue warring with yourself and others. If you can find a way to understand that one perspective is not the only viewpoint, you can see truth and innocence. When judgment is softened, your perception clears, and you can see differently. This is the path to oneness.

Allowing others to walk their path without interfering in their process will open new vistas of light to assist and support their lives. This allows others to grow and expand, and is paramount to your process as well. So many feel it is their responsibility to make others see, understand, or do something they feel is best, all in the name of helping someone through their personal wisdom and experience. When you are willing to see things differently, you will understand them and yourself much better.

In seeing things differently, you are allowing a different perspective to arise which sheds new light on the situation for all involved. Too often we carry our perspectives forward to apply to same situations and people, which locks everything into the same chain reaction and response. Sometimes a new perspective simply allows the situation to unfold as it should, even though it may not appear so at the time. This brings new clarity and insight, and allows your perspective to expand and change. How you see and perceive your world creates and energy that is embedded in everyone and everything you focus upon. When you change your perspective by seeing things differently, you change your world. May gratitude and appreciation be yours ♥

Thoughts

January 18, 2015
The purest form of love is awareness. Finding your way into awareness is the key to awakening. This is a consciousness beyond all thoughts. This is knowing that nothing else matters except your connection to cosmic consciousness. Your alignment with the connection to your highest self, reveals truth and genuineness in all things. There is a knowing of this connection that resides within your thoughts when you tune into the feeling of the thought. Is the feeling peaceful or resistant? Does the thought incite love or fear? The most important path is the one you walk with an open heart. The heart cannot be open in the presence of fearful thoughts.

Your thoughts carry agendas. The agendas serve the ego. This is the subterfuge of the ego, to keep you in the world it has created, with the opinions it wants, for its sake and survival. This is not the real world. The real world involves acceptance, love, kindness, understanding, openness, tolerance, and compassion. Without agendas for anyone or anything, including yourself.

Alignment with your higher self is the path to awakening beyond the ego. This path lies in the second thought, not the first thought that you have about something. The first thought is the ego response, the second thought is the truth revealing thought. The immediate reaction is that of the ego. The true self, your highest self, reacts slower with more awareness. Acting with the first thought contains fear, acting with the second thought is love. The egos job is to act quickly to dispel the connection with highest self. This is why the ego has connected feeling to the first thought. It is the feeling that spurs action and belief. This causes more first thoughts and keeps you ‘dancing’ to the egos ‘tune’. Who you are up to this point is created from a lifelong succession of first thoughts. When you dismiss the first thought (initial reaction) and allow the second thought to surface, not only will it feel different but it will lead you in a different direction. This does not mean you must ponder on each situation that arises, but to think past the first thought that arises about the person, situation, or event. Truth and love lie within the second thought you have about the situation.

The world as we know it contains multitudes of information all connected to an agenda. It is the agenda you want to see within the information, and make your choices from there. Programming of these agendas appeals to the ego. The ego is the one that believes these agendas. The higher self being slower to react does not buy in to most things. It is wise to the ways of the agenda. It does not believe everything for face value and looks for the agenda first to determine its reaction. Your highest self only responds to truth. If there is no truth within the situation, it will not give credence to it.

Following this path is a detoxification of your thoughts which will lead to new reactions and beliefs within your being. This will establish a higher sense of knowing and believing. It will increase the awareness of your life and those within it. It will wake you up to new conscious awareness and give you a new sense of clarity and vision.

When you connect with your highest self, you will live in truth and authenticity. This genuine way of being in the world will assist others in finding this within themselves as it carries a specific frequency; the frequency and vibration of love. When you come from love it overcomes and dispels the darkness within others, when you are around them. It will draw those of like vibration to you, and may drive others away. Knowing this will assist you in understanding them and why they are reacting in such a way. Be Well, Be Love ♥

LOOKING BACK ~ MOVING FORWARD

As the year comes to a close you may find yourself looking back at a lifetime of growth and development that has brought you to this point of attainment and awareness. This may feel different from years past as we have crossed the ending of one era and are now at the beginning of the next!
Looking back at your life and the realization of changes and opportunities that have formed who you have become will shed light on where you are today. The letting go of the past will open you to the possibility of the future being more authentic and feeling more empowered, rather than needy and weak. This threshold of empowerment will lead you to the awakening of your being with the energy of the past falling away. This choice to expand upon the goodness of your authentic self will give you a clarity of feeling the new beginning of this year.
Appending areas of your life where healing has occurred will impart your strength of character and open you to a new awareness within your heart to the connection of all things. This gives you the energetic stamina to continue the healing process and creates the strength within your heart to do, think, and feel the energetic quality of the new frequency of being that connects you with the flow of your life.
As this cleansing continues and your frequency of being increases the reaction from the world around you answers the call to rise and feel the love you are emitting. This clarity of being is felt by all around you and it feels as peace within.
Letting go of anything tied to the past life you are releasing will instantly change your energetic field. This systemic release of anything or anyone that no longer serves who you are will create a new world of opportunity and increase, meant to join you with those in the new age of awareness and connection. This is a beginning of an era meant for those of pure intention and consciousness.
With the old of your being falling away, you will feel the sparks of new beginnings within. With the layers of the past rescinding, the ego will recapitulate within attempting to hold its control over your mind. This will feel less intimidating as you continue releasing your past life, as the ego is very invested in what you have become. The ego will not know where it fits in the new paradigm of your life, so it will continue to attempt to draw you back to the past life you are leaving behind. The more resilient you become to the temptation of the ego and your past, the more strength and optimism you will gain. Refining your will and using affirmations beginning with ‘I AM’ will assist you with pressing forward to the new frequency of being you have laid out before you. Reminding yourself that the past is not who you truly are, but who you had become [until now], will assist with the release and strengthen your willingness to continue forward.
Bringing your conscious awareness into the present, and knowing this is where you exist right now, will open your life to new intention and dimensional thinking that will empower you to change your life. All is well in your world and you are the one that will make it so. Be Well, Be Love ♥

Faith

December 29, 2014

The Season of Faith is upon you and knowing where faith comes from is important.

Faith is born from the ability to believe in something or someone, regardless of proof.  Faith coincides with trust, in that having faith means a trust is in place upon the person, concept, or idea to be what it is professed to be. This is not an easy thing, as this faith and trust must also reside for one’s self. These ideals can be present when a feeling of confidence lies within. Knowing the source of the object you have faith in is important and must be thoroughly believable. We have all experienced a letdown when faith was shattered, which means trust was not in place. Faith is also important to ones beliefs creating energetic responses that endorse your feelings. Whatever or whomever you believe in will sanctify your faith.

Having faith in yourself and believing in your process is imperative to the evolution of your being. Only then can you trust yourself to be a force for good in the world. We are all here to grow and maximize our potential for the evolution of our being. Having faith and believing in ourselves is a major step on our spiritual expansion and conscious awareness of being. Opening to the belief that all you think, say, and do has a purpose and will serve the highest good within, may find you more aware of your actions. This motivates life purpose and is the answer to the question ‘what is my life purpose’.

Faith in yourself creates a ripple effect as it animates your actions and frequency to the world. This is the unspoken part of your presence. This lasting impression of your way in the world draws matching frequencial expressions to you. It rarefies your being to a higher sense of clarity and vibration. These are the things that matter more than what we feel is needed in our lives. There is no greater sense of love than faith, trust, and belief in one’s self-expression in the world. Finding that level of awareness within cannot happen without clarity of thought and faith in one’s self. The world is made of distractions to keep you from discovering this truth. Once you decide to live your life with purpose and faith in yourself, you will find peace and a depth of love that emanates from you and to you. This frequency of being will be realized as grace to those in your life that need it most. Have faith in yourself and be on purpose with your presence. ♥

The path of forgiveness

How do I forgive………..truly forgive?

Forgiveness is a path and a process. To truly forgive, one has to open themselves to all possibility and non-judgment. One cannot forgive while in judgment of another, or one’s self. Judgment stands between you and forgiveness. You are programmed to judge. When you judge someone you cut off all possibility for forgiveness. Judgment comes from the ego. Ego attachment is a powerful thing, and one cannot decompress the programming while the ego is running things. So, forgiveness is connected to all that you believe. The ego, as we have discussed before, doesn’t like peace. The ego thrives on crisis, chaos, and conflict. This keeps you distracted and keeps you from conscious awareness and love. Becoming aware of your thoughts is a first step to questioning yourself and your beliefs. When you have a judgmental thought ask where the thought comes from. How does the thought feel? Does this thought bring up other thoughts? Allow your thoughts to unfold back to their origination. Experience the feelings these thoughts generate. What do they feel like? At this point, you might have lost the original thought of judgment, and are into the place where the thought truly comes from. This is the place where healing begins.

Most of your beliefs are about yourself, as this is what you use for perception and comparison for judgmental thinking. This is a place of fear within your being. This is the seat of the ego. This is where all thoughts, feelings, judgments, and opinions come from. Why do you feel threatened? What is the basis of your fear? What if you didn’t believe what you are thinking? What if you believed the opposite, or just decided that this thought was not true for you at all? What would change? How would a new thought feel? Where did the original thought come from and who does it serve? Would there be utter chaos if you believed something different? How would that affect your life? At this point, notice how these questions, and the different thoughts they generate, feel within your heart. Your heart is the seat of your truth.

Thoughts are frequency. When you think certain thoughts, they generate a vibration that draws experience to you. The universe is interactive. You are the creator of your life. Whatever you think draws that experience to you, as you are creating by thinking. Your life emulates your thoughts. Your thoughts are generated by your beliefs. If you want to change your thoughts you must change your beliefs. Finding the answers about your beliefs lies within your programming. If your life is not working, it is because you believe something that is not true for you. This has nothing to do with religion or politics. It has to do with your inner relationship to your life, and those within it who have programmed you to believe what they thought was true for them. Most programming stems from lack. This sets up striving. Striving is unreachable. Striving makes you ignore the truth. Truth surfaces when you allow yourself to just be without believing anything your ego is telling you. You can distinguish the ego, as it comes in as thoughts that attack, judge, and create fear. These thoughts almost sound like a different person ‘selling’ you on its ‘product’, which is nothing more than its beliefs. It poses itself as defending you from an enemy. Do you see how this elaborate scheme is hooked into your being? You deserve the truth. The truth is that you are a loving and deserving being of light, and nothing but that truly matters. It doesn’t need to be complicated. If you were to stop enforcing someone else’s agenda, you could change your life. Most of what you believe is simply not true. If you were to change your beliefs, your thoughts would align with the truth, and forgiveness would flow. All would then be as it should be. When you allow yourself to find the truth it will set you free! ♥

Whatever you believe, you can concieve

The mind is your connection between the world and your inner being. Thoughts are what is produced by this interaction creating feelings, and those feelings are your connection to the Universe. This is the energy of your being and your place in the world.
Your mind does not rest. It thinks thoughts all the time. Being aware of your thoughts creates conscious awareness which is where you want to be. When you are consciously aware you can change your world. This level of consciousness can be transforming as it gives you the awareness of what is going on within your being through feelings. When you allow yourself to think and feel consciously, you can become aware of things that no longer exist within your life and reconcile the misdeeds of the past. When you give yourself permission to heal through conscious awareness, asking the heart to assist will be instantaneous. You can let the feelings this brings up pass through you, then release it out to the ether with trust. Some thoughts may want to linger, and you can focus them on the feeling you have within your heart for cleansing.
Feelings energize thoughts and give them the ‘fuel’ they need to manifest. Thoughts with no feeling behind them are not powerful; they are random and without meaning. Using conscious awareness with thoughts and feelings connects to the heart creating emotion, and this is very powerful. This magnetizes whatever you’re focusing upon to be drawn to you. These are the steps for creation. Creation has three steps: thought, emotion, belief. When there is intention behind creation, the thought is carried forward and made manifest.
Belief is a part of you that links to your programming. Belief connects to value and worth, for what you believe you can conceive. If you have not done the healing work to clear out the fear and misconceptions that lie within, it will be difficult to believe. You are a perfect being that has been programmed by life to believe that things happen to you because you are not worthy. Worthiness is a tool the ego uses to control you, and at every turn the world will justify your beliefs. Believing that you were born as a perfect being into this life, to learn through adversity and acquire the skills and intelligence your soul needs for expansion and evolution, is the truth. It really is that simple. And if you lived your life simply knowing that truth, you could not be controlled. Believing that you are a perfect being that has been programmed, and having the desire to detox that belief, will begin a chain reaction of purging the mistruths within. Thoughts will begin to come into your awareness that will show you what you currently believe about yourself. This will give you the opportunity to change your beliefs about yourself, and heal the deepest parts of your inner being. The chain reaction will then begin, and your thoughts will change to truth, and align with your true intentions. This is the process of becoming authentic and being a force of good in the world. This conscious connection reverberates as the emotion of love. Love for yourself, the process, and the world.
When you join your thoughts with the emotion of love, and believe that you are a loving being and deserving of all good things, you will draw to yourself like minds and begin to change the world!
Be Well, Be Love ♥

Goodness

There are changes happening within your world that will bring more peace to your lives. The work that you are doing on yourselves is coming to fruition by changing your energy and frequency. This new frequency (call it your energy signature) is causing change to occur and truth to rise. You are purifying your own world making way for goodness to become your foundation. This is possible, and you should expect it! There is cause for this as the effort you have made to heal your being combined with the grace that is here for you, creates a calm within you that, when you tune into it, feels like peace. The only interruption you may have with this meditation would be the ego trying to interfere. This brings us to the next level of healing and transfiguration.
The ego is a program that was instilled to control you. This program will not let you have too much goodness or peace within. It will find a way to undermine your progress to the point that you will give up trying to heal your being or accomplish happiness and joy. A little happiness causes the ego to go into overdrive creating conflict to take your happiness away. The ego works ahead seeing the desire for happiness and it works to find a way to derail it. Is this possible at all? Yes, as it is working behind the scenes in a subconscious way to keep you in a state of constant striving. This interference creates a consciousness of negative and degrading thoughts leading to depression, anger, frustration, guilt, victim-hood, and desiring to have more and be more.
This is why you have heard a lot about meditation, which is important and the key to conscious awareness. A wonderful way of meditation is tuning into beauty. It does not mean you need to sit in a lotus pose and leave your body. Many find it very difficult to sit quietly and have ‘no thoughts’. This is more common than not. There are more meditations created now to music, which is wonderful if you like the music! Meditation to tune into goodness can be accomplished by way of reading an uplifting book, watching a movie or video that has pleasing content, listening to calm beautiful music, anything that ‘consumes’ you in beauty and a feeling of elation. These types of meditation will clear your mind and allow your body to calm.
The thoughts that you have cause your body to react to those thoughts. This means that if you are having thoughts of despise or regret, the body will create and environment conducive to those thoughts. This type of thinking (and feeling) creates toxins within the body causing dis ease over time. Goodness, or good thinking, creates alkalinity within the body and balances the systems within. This is not instantaneous as you cannot ‘cure’ yourself with a few days of neutral thoughts! This is a process of mastering your thinking. It happens with practice and intention. You will know when you are mastering your thinking process as others will not be able to sway your thinking and your feelings are not affected. Thoughts create feelings and how you feel about your thoughts is your guidepost.
It is your ego causing your thoughts. Until you become conscious and aware of your thoughts you will not be able to control them. Conscious awareness only happens with practice and the intention to step into your power. This is a major step in your evolution and will not happen unless you have done the healing and purging that we have talked about in previous communications. You cannot skip any steps with permanent success. This does not mean that you need to work on thinking happy thoughts all the time. Thinking neutral thoughts which are thoughts without judgments of another or even yourself in a judgmental way is the path toward achieving goodness in your life. How does this feel to you? ♥

Love

What is love? The word itself invokes a feeling. Where does love come from? Is it generated from the mind or the heart? Does love exist and we tap into it at times or is it created? Are we in love all the time or does it come and go? Tell us about love……………..
Love is multifaceted in human terms but real love is constant. Love exists all around you and within you, however you need to tap into it. Love is pure and unchanging. Love is not generated; it is realized. Love is your authentic self and your natural state of being. Love is neutral; it is not emotional nor does it come and go. Understanding what love really is comes from deep within your being. It is all encompassing and you can stay within it with conscious awareness and intention.
Love consists of acceptance and allowing all to be as it is without the need or urge to change anything or anyone. Love is a state of being. Love is natural. Anything outside of unconditional acceptance and appreciation is not love. Love does not look outside of itself for approval, nor does it desire love back. Love generates love. This does not mean that emotional love is not love. It is a facet of human love. Pure love is everlasting. If you love someone without conditions of any kind, that is pure love. If you love someone only when they ‘love you back’ that is emotional love. Emotional love does not exist in the higher states of being. Emotional love is tied to the emotional body which is a part of your human state of being. If you feel unconditional love, it adds vibration to love and is felt by those in tuned to the same feeling of love. It enhances love and illuminates your being. There is no greater state of being than love. When you are in that state of being, you lift up all around you! You raise the vibration of all beings in your presence. You can give no greater gift than to be love.

Allow, accept, enlighten, and unite all in your world and your world will thrive and flow. ♥

Acceptance

October 26, 2014

The healing continues with discovering pain [misunderstanding] within and turning it to understanding and then acceptance.

Once the mind connects with the heart there is a ‘spark’ of understanding that opens you to the healing process. The question is then asked

“do you want to heal your pain (misunderstandings)”? You are always giving yourself the choice to heal or not.

With some, there is a lot of personal identity that is wrapped up in their pain. Healing [understanding] will change their identity causing new aspects of their genuine self to awaken. It is the mind/heart connection that begins the process of transformative healing.

If you so choose to heal, it is at the moment of acceptance that the mind/heart connection is kicked into gear. This action draws to you the energy, grace and situations (people, ideas, and events) to assist you with healing and transforming your pain to ‘light’ [understanding] and acceptance. During the healing process the challenge you may face is keeping the mind/heart connection, for it is the intent of healing that must be upheld. If your intent remains solid, the healing will progress. This may not be as easy as it sounds, because many personal beliefs, people, and paradigms may be connected to your pain [misunderstanding].

As each aspect of healing surfaces, you will be given the chance to see things as they truly are [clarity] and a choice to heal that faucet of your pain. This intent to heal is an ongoing process, and might possibly create major changes in your life. You will find the process to be about allowing and acceptance of all that has happened and finding the understanding that it is about evolving out of the ‘fire’ of your life into the stream of higher states of being.

We are all here to evolve at our own pace within the atmosphere of free will. This is the power of being that we all possess as we are all powerful beings having a human experience! The path you take is up to you. Do you choose to play the victim or be the evolutionary being you are? Unite yourself within which will eradicate the power of the ego and give yourself permission to be who you really are; One that makes a difference instead of creating indifference. It always has been and always will be about you and what you do with the choices you are given. Be well, be love
