Preparing for a Relationship Remember, you are laying the foundation for a good relationship. if you take care with the foundation, the building will take care of itself. Be friends and companions first. Determine where your shared values and interests lie and explore them together. Look at your differences and see if you can accept them. Establish trust and mutual respect before becoming sexually and emotionally involved. let there be an organic movement toward greater emotional and physical intimacy. If doubts and fears come up about the relationship, hold them gently and compassionately within your own consciousness. If they persist, share them with your partner. Listen to each other without judgment. Don’t try to fix the other person. Just hear what s/he is saying. learn to hold our partner’s doubts and fears in the same compassionate way you have learned to hold your own. Realize that it is natural for fears to come up when you go into a relationship. Don’t think there’s something wrong with you or with your partner when this happens. learn to acknowledge the fears that are present without giving them power or making them more important than they are. Every relationship has its own flow. Try to work with that flow, instead of against it. listen to yourself and to your partner. Find a pace that honors you both. Don’t push the river. Don’t force the relationship to be what you want it to be. Allow it to unfold.

I finally watched Eat, Pray, Love last night (yes, i know, i am the last person to do this, and no, i have not read the book either.)  I was afraid that it was going to be a cheesy romantic love story that mocks true spiritual enlightenment.  Boy was I wrong -thankfully!!!  I loved every aspect of this story and this woman’s life.  I found unusual parallelism between her story and my own life story.  My favorite line in the movie was when she said “Through the teachings here, i have learned that it all circulates around one truth: God is in me, and God expresses himself THROUGH me!”  What a simple yet important truth!  A truth, that,  if truly realized, would instantaneously bring us happiness, Bliss, success and Love and complete enlightenment!

 

I was still pondering this movie line while I was going for my daily run this morning.  Lately i have noticed a block in my third chakra, my Power center.  This is, of course, because i have been struggling with my own TRUTH as a POWERFUL, Divine be-ing.  So i asked God to help me surrender all the obstacles that have been keeping me from remembering that i came here to be a POWERFUL being, not to struggle or play victim to the challenging ways of the world.  God responded to me as I ran this morning.  I seem to have some of my best conversations with God when i am running.

 

I could hear and FEEL the voice of God say to me “Take a look around you.  Take a ‘conscious’ look at all that you see.  You will see me in everything, everywhere, at the same time”  And so i did.  I looked, consciously, at my surroundings.  Immediately, my heart chakra opened up and everything seemed so much Brighter,  colorful and vibrant!  Tears of Gratitude welled up in my eyes when I looked at the bush as i ran by it, and heard it whisper  “I am God, and God is expressing himself through me”  I looked at the mud puddle and heard it giggle “I am God and God expresses himself through me”  How much unconditional Love i felt for these beautiful expressions of God!  I was suddenly overwhelmed with Divine LOVE, Gratitude and pure BLISS.

Ahhh, but it is so easy to see God in nature – and i found myself admiring the flower and the bird bathing as i ran by; each of them reminding me that they were God and God was expressing him/herself through them.  But then i passed a garbage truck picking up trash, I  chuckled and thought ‘well THAT is not God.’  But i was quickly corrected, as i heard the truck respond “YES, I AM!! I AM God, and God expresses himself through me!”  How?  I heard Spirit respond  ‘Look beyond what you think you know of something.  Look at the perfection of the design, the structure, the function – it was created by man -and that creative, imaginative mind of man is ME, expressing myself through him, therefore, I created this vehicle and the Garbage truck is a reflection..an EXPRESSION of me! See me in the truck.  Honor the truck. Love the truck, for when you do- you are loving ME- and yourself -for I am in YOU as well.’  So i ran a little more, and now i was experiencing God in everything.  I saw the broken fence and heard it say “I’m not broken, I am PERFECT.  SEE me as more than that which is on the surface.”  So i admired the beautiful, geometric shape the broken wooden pickets made and said “You are GOD, and God is expressing himself through you. I Love you, and i honor God within you”  And then it hit me.

How easy this is -to experience GOD in everything!  All i have to do is look beyond the surface – look beyond the Illusion that says it is anything ELSE, other than God.  A broken fence, a mud puddle, a bum on the street, a cigarette butt on the ground -  “There is NO place in which you will NOT find me” God was telling me over and over- and i finally understood this concept.  BUT….. there was more to it than i would acknowledge at this moment.

God continued ‘If I am in present in all of these objects, these experiences, regardless of how they appear, regardless of what you, or what others think of them-  if I am there- and they are PERFECT reflections of ME -then what does that say about YOU?’  Aahhh, i cringed as this TRUTH as a little too much for me to bare.  Though i knew what Spirit was about to say, i had been stepping away from believing this for quite some time lately and my Ego was resisting the Growth opportunity i was being offered.  But God continued  “You asked for a reminder, so here it is!  YOU, my sweet child, are ME, and I am expressing myself through you!  Please ALLOW me to continue to do so.  You need not do anything, accomplish anything, or become anything- i am here, within you- and it is through your mere existence that I express myself through you! Please know, everytime you take a breath, i am expressing myself through you.  All you have to do to FEEL me and experience me, is look beyond your own Illusions.  Just like the broken wooden fence, or the garbage truck- change your perspective, and all else will change too.  Refuse to see yourself as broken, wounded, unworthy, mediocre,  ugly, fat, sad, broke, unsuccessful, jealous, fearful and all these other ‘limiting’ versions of yourself that you seem to claim as your TRUTH from moment to moment.  That is NOT who you are – I…. am who you are!!  SEE me in yourself.  Know I am here, within you. I am in your every cell, molecule, heartbeat.  Know I have always been here.  I am not just a part of you -i AM you!  There is no separation.  All the love you felt when you recognized me in everything else – the bush, the bird, the flower, the cigarette butt – FEEL that Love now- feel it for yourself -for just as they are all PERFECT reflections of me- so are YOU!”

 

Yes, i knew this -yet did I?  Why wasn’t I claiming this Greatness in very moment? Why wasn’t I claiming it in EVERY moment?  Why was I feeling so powerless lately? How could I?  When i marveled at my own magnificence, MY Beauty, there was no doubt -  I AM God.  It was so simple.  I took a look at myself and heard God say  ‘I am Within you.  I am expressing myself through you.  Right now.  Say it.  Repeat it back to yourself.’  So there I was, running down the street as i began to say out loud, through heavy breathing, sweat dripping down my entire body… “I am God, and God is expressing himself through me.”  Oh, my eyes welled up with tears again and my heart filled with warm, Divine Love that was unparalleled to anything I have ever felt.   I continued, repeating it even louder  “I am God!!!!  And God is expressing himself through me!!!!! RIGHT NOW!!!!”  I felt more alive then ever and my entire body began to tingle all over. ‘Again, say it again my child…’  So i did and this time the words were not coming from me but from within me “I am the Alpha and the Omega!! I am the Sun and the Moon!! I am Omniscient, Omnipotent and Omnipresent!!! I am GOD!!!!!  Whoo Hooooo!!!!  I am GOD!!!!!”  I was half screaming it, and half crying it- as this realization- when it is grasped as an experience, instead of a concept- takes over one’s entire Being!!!!  I was completely unaware of my surroundings or the pain that I ‘should have’ been feeling by now as i was running harder and faster than ever.  I felt like I was in my body but above it at the same time.  It was not ME running- not the old, limited version of myself that i thought I was -this was GOD running -and I can only imagine the speed I was traveling at!  Yet i felt nothing- no fatigue, no breathlessness (i must admit I was only on my second week returning to running, so It was not uncommon for me to get out of breath after the first mile.)  I remember thinking ‘What if all athletes connected at this level- came back to their TRUTH as God WHILE they were competing?’  I giggled as I thought of all the world records that would be broken time after time.  Oh what we are capable of doing when we release our limitations.  But I will save this concept for another Blog.

God was not done giving me the reminder I had asked for.  I looked around me, weeping at the precious realization that I was indeed God, and not just a part of God.  I saw a pile of dirt, and I felt the pure love for it as I said “You are God too, and God is expressing himself through you.  You are God’s Creation, and I love you just as I love the Divine Creator, for you are a part of it”  I then heard God say to me -change your wording.  Repeat it, but replace the word ‘God’ with  ‘I.’  AI was a little confused, but I obeyed anyhow (I have learned not to argue with God.) and I found myself looking at a car on the street and saying “I am you, and I am expressing myself through you!”  I came to an abrupt stop.  Ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhhh -something took over me.!!  Something changed in me -instantaneously.  I didn’t know what happened at that moment- but i felt something else- something I had never felt before.  So I repeated my words, this time looking at a dog in someone’s yard “I am YOU, and I am expressing myself through you”  I couldn’t move.  Even at this moment, as I write this, I find it difficult to explain what I felt come over me.  To say it was unconditional Love would be an understatement -to say it was a realization or an actualization would not do it justice.  Regardless.. I got it.  I got why Spirit had asked me to reword my statement.  As i repeated ‘I am you. I am expressing myself through you.’  I made a connection unlike what I was feeling just a moment before.  I could feel God saying “That’s right.  YOU are this.  YOU created this, not just me – YOU.”  And i did not need any further explanation. I could feel it, in the depths of my Soul, in my body, in my cells – at every level -i finally understood this TRUTH.  I AM God/Spirit!  I was, for the first time -seeing everything through God’s eyes- and not just ‘my own.’  In other words -once I realized that I AM God -i dropped the ‘I’ and it became a ‘We.’  I was so connected and MERGED with Spirit that I was now witnessing life, for the first time ever, through my REAL self – WITHOUT my veil of Illusion.  I was witnessing life through my GOD eyes.  It’s like someone just lifted this veil up off my eyes and I was looking out into the world for the first time -and truly SEEING! ‘All of this…all of this beauty…YOU did it.  You created it- and it is as much a part of YOU as it is a part of me.  WE did it together.  You have always been a part of me, and you always will”  With this realization, I felt a different kind of LOVE for all things.  The only thing I can compare it to is the love I feel for my children.  When i look at my children, no matter what they are doing or even how they are behaving- i feel complete unconditional love for them- so much that it often takes my breath away.  I also feel some sense of pride, some sense of ‘myself’ through them.  When I see them, I see myself- for I realize that I helped create them and that there is a part of me IN them.  This is the beauty of Cocreation -of ANYthing, not just one’s offspring.  When we create something, whether it is a life, a piece of art, a song or even write an article – several things happen.  First, whether we realize it or not, when we create something- we are not creating it alone- we are doing it WITH God- that is why it is called COcreation.  The Divine Spirit is flowing through us, expressing him/herself THROUGH us.  The very act of creation is Divine in itself.  We are CREATIVE Be-ings, so to CREATE is to express GOD, or should I say ‘To allow God to express himself through us.’  Second, when we Create something, we become a part of it – no matter what.  If we created it, we are in it- and therefore, so is God.  The difference is that we have a difficult time accepting this Truth in fullness.  We can acknowledge that God is in us, that God is in our children, in nature -but we still feel a separateness.  Our Ego mind often wants us to believe God is in us, but we are just a ‘small part’ of the Divine Creator.  We feel okay saying God is in everything WE create,  but we wouldn’t dare take credit for anything that God has created.  But here i was, running, surrounded by Divine Creation everywhere -the animal, the tree, the skateboard- and Spirit was asking me to take ownership of it.  It was only after I had obeyed and said the word “I”, that i realized just how powerful this statement  was.  For a moment, my Ego tried to knock me down.  ‘YOU didn’t create this, GOD did’ I could hear my lower self try to tell me.  I almost felt guilty for saying that I did.  For if I acknowledge that “I” am in it, and that “I” am expressing MYSELF through it, then I am essentially saying that “I” created it.  This frightened me, but i quickly heard God say “YES!!!! Yes,Yes YOU did!  Don’t you get it?  We are NOT separate, I AM You, you ARE me -it’s just that your human mind won’t let you believe you could possibly be this magnificent, this powerful, this beautiful, this CREATIVE.  If you could drop the illusion that we are two separate Be-ings, you would have grasped this long ago -and you HAVE -from the other side, in other lifetimes, and even when you were young- before you fell asleep.  At this moment, It is in your ‘comfort zone’ to believe that we are separate.  You got conditioned to believing everything everyones told you about who you really are.  This is why you feel guilty.  It is also why you have been playing so small, why you haven’t manifested what you want, and why you keep playing victim to every circumstance.  You did not come here to be this person….. you came here…. to be ME!  Now drop your illusions and KNOW that I am in you and express myself through you at ALL times.  And, this would be alot easier if you would be willing to accept that we are ONE and that everything that is a part of me is a part of you.  Everything that I have created, so have you!”

 

I took a look around and thought ‘Okay God, i am done denying that we are One.  I am done ‘forgetting the most important Truth of all.  I shall do whatever it takes to live each moment from this truth.’   I realized that there were indeed many times in my life when I DID Feel my oneness with God, where I did Feel the Power of the Divine running through my own veins.  However, there were far too many times when I did not. How do I shift this?  I wondered.  God answered ‘Your thoughts, actions and words represent the person you THINK you are.  You must begin there.  Take a deep look – who are you showing up as?  What are your thoughts, words and actions saying you are?  Whatever the answer is -YOU are believing it.  And your life is a reflection of it.  Take a close look at what you are thinking,  what you are spacing about, and how you behave- towards others and towards yourself.  In public, and deep within your mind.  If you wish to Remember and LVE by to your truth as a Divine Being permenately -you must become conscious of everything you think, say and do.   Everytime you play small, feel fear, stay in your comfort zone, talk down to someone, or even just withhold love,  you moving AWAY from remembering your Truth.  You are causing yourself to ‘forget’ that you are GOD.  This is an Illusion, of course, because you can never NOT be me -we are inseparable.  BUT, you can easily forget.  Eventually, your subconscious mind takes over and you begin to think that all these human “thoughts’ and ‘actions’  are actually WHO you are.  The result?  You LIMIT yourself, and your experiences.  Yes, I am still here- no matter what, I am within you.   You ARE GOD -always and in all ways.  The only difference is whether you want to acknowledge it or not.’

 

Once i chose to view the world through God’s eyes, which were MY eyes- i came to a beautiful state of Bliss.  My entire Soul was overwhelmed with a conscious LOVE and BLISS that I had never felt before.  “I am in you, and I am expressing myself through you”  Such a simple statement, yet everytime I said this, I felt the purest form of Love for ALL things- like that of a mother for her child.  I now understood why and how it was possible for the Divine creator to Love everything and everyone  unconditionally- because it/he/she was not only seeing himself in it, but EXPERIENCING himself through all things, regardless of how others viewed it.  ‘Yes, that is correct my child, i do not see a murderer, i see ME.  I do not see a landfill, i see ME.  I do not see a liar, or a thief, or a cancerous tumor, I see ME.  And since i know that i am PERFECT, i am able to see nothing but PERFECTION in all of these things.  And since i know i am nothing but LOVE, i feel nothing but LOVE for these things.  They are all a part of my Creation, and I love and Honor each of them equally.  They, just like you, are complete reflections of me’  When i repeated “I” instead of “God” I, too, felt this Divine  Love for everything!   I could see the same Perfection in all of these things.  I, too, could see myself through these things- and immediately recognized them as perfect reflections of myself. In doing so, i was forced to recognize myself as Perfect as well.   All I did was choose to MERGE with God and  leave behind my own illusion that we were separate.   Interestingly enough… the greatest gift in my lesson was in what i experienced next.

God whispered  ‘Now that you have seen this world through my/our eyes…i want you to EXPERIENCE this world through ‘our’ eyes’   I looked around as I continued running down the street, at the beautiful world around me and heard myself saying “look at this! I did this!  I created this!!  Look at how powerful I am!”  I looked up at the tree and said, out loud “I created you- in all your perfection- I created you my child!” I continued looking around and calling out to everything i saw “I created you …and you… and you… and you!  Oh how beautiful you all are my precious children, and I did this!”  Never in my life had I felt more powerful!  I realized that i truly was God, therefore the Creative Power that existed within God was MINE!  “YES, now you get it!!!  Look at what we have created.  The very same power that suspends planets in the Solar System and created life itself – is YOUR power!!  Now ask yourself – If you have created all of these Divine things -WHY, now, would you choose to live such a limited life?’  Wow, Wow, Wow, Wow. These words hit me hard.  As I gazed up at the Sun in the sky- i could FEEL my Power.  I also could FEEL that I was not just looking at the Sun, I WAS the Sun! Just like there is no separation between myself and God, because God created me -so was the same with me and the Sun.  I created this Sun, threfore I can not be separate from it.  I realized that I was EXPERIENCING myself THROUGH the Sun, AS the Sun.  Once again, i became enveloped with a sensation that drew me out of my body -and up into the Cosmos.  Once i realized that I not only created the Sun, but that I WAS the Sun- i merged with it. ‘Look at me, look at my beauty.  Look at my power’ I found myself saying to the world.  I am SUN.  I was so engrossed by my ‘merging’ with the Sun, that I was actually looking t the world from above.  I could see mother Earth, and all of her inhabitants as swirling mass of energies, each of them vibrating separately but together.  At this moment, I felt so ‘large’, so powerful, so important -i forgot completely that i was in my human body.  Yes, allow yourself to EXPAND.  You are not bound by this human body, or this human mind that you are just visiting for a short time.  YOU are limitless, and, just like the Sun -powerful, bright and capable of spreading LIGHT across the world.  That is the main reason you came here -to spread LIGHT into the world.’  I could fEEL my Light -it was brighter and more beautiful than anything I had ever experienced.   I realized that this was the first time I had ever allowed myself to BE this magnificent.  I was feeling so euphoric, so high, so….. ‘DIVINE?” God inserted.  Ys, that is exactly what I was feeling- Divine.  I said ‘I don’t want to come back down .  I don’t want to go back to my human body.  I want to stay here, in the cosmos.  I want this feeling to stay with me forever”  ’God responded “Then chose it.  This is your natural state of Being.  Exactly what you are feeling- you arrived here no through some great epiphany.  You arrived here because you were willing to lift your veil of Illusion.  So, I ask you, why put the veil back on?’

 

I began weeping again the sweetest tears I have ever wept.  I finally came back to my physical body and realized I had run farther and harder than i had since I ran Cross Country in high school.  I was breathing heavily, but felt no pain, no fatigue.   Tears and sweat were  dripping down my face ad body.  I felt high. I was.  “You don’t have to come back down.  You can stay here.  Walk through your human life ‘High’ – for you belong up here, not down below.  The choice is yours.’  A minute later a man, was doing yard work came over and said “Ma’am are you okay?” obviously noticing my weeping.  “Yes”  I said “I am more than okay.  I am PERFECT”  And I actually meant it this time.

 

It is my desire and intention that each of my Brothers and Sisters come back to their  TRUTH as GOD.  I know, without a doubt, it is part of path to help guide them there.  I bowed my head in silence and whispered “Thy will be my Will.”

Where we invest our energy is a result of choice. No one outside of us forces us to invest our energy in any particular emotion, thought or act. The energy investment choices we make are either conscious or unconscious. Either way, Where We Direct the Energy of our Thoughts and Emotions Gives Rise to our Experiences.

Unconscious shapeshifting occurs during the most ordinary every day activities.

If the question from a friend is:" How are you ? and you only focus on the most predominant concern, and make that the God of the day, you shapeshifted the day into the negative.

If you focus on the gratefulness of what you have and have the faith of being given, without worrying, without bringing past experiences into the present problem as the solution, along with negative energy, that state of positive consciousness creates the manifestation of your desire.

Quit complaining today and quit reliving the story. Command a new reality, a new experience, a new way of having Universe respond to your day to day concerns.

We receive according to our faith. Give it positive energy, and it exists as you desire it to be.

It use to be that the loss of hearing only seemed to affect us old folks. Our modern society is filled with noise the human ear was never meant to continuously experience such as the deafening sound of a rock band piped directly into your ear through your Bluetooth or your stero speakers turned on full blast. This is really good information from Dr. Al Sears on how we can help with hearing loss. This is a supplement which is inexpensive and found in some of the better multi-vitamin/mineral supplements. While researching this information I came across some other really interesting uses for this medication which is familiar to me as respiratory medication and use as a drug for overdoses. If you take a lot of Tylenol for pain relief you might do your research on this area, as well as manic depression. I was interested in information on how it is used when taking contrast for radiology testing and bladder cancer drugs. Google is a wonderful tool. Dr. Al Sears writes: Most people don’t know this, but inflammation is part of the process by which you lose your hearing. I’ve been addressing that in my own body for some time. But you can do even more for sensorineural hearing loss – hearing loss from loud noises. Here are the nutrients I take that really work: N-acetyl-cysteine (NAC) – In China, the construction and traffic noise can be brutal. So researchers are constantly looking for ways to help the millions of people who live in and around China’s huge cities. Just last year they did a study where they took 363 people and randomly divided them so that one group got a placebo and the other got NAC. Then they exposed them to harsh, loud noises. The people taking the NAC were protected from hearing loss.1 Our military now treats soldiers with NAC during training to protect them from blast noise from gunfire and explosions.2 In fact, one study looked at military officers after shooting practice. The guns are incredibly loud. A roaring jet engine from a plane taking off a few feet above your head would be about 120 decibels. These officers were hearing gunfire that was up to 160 decibels. After the noise exposure, one group took NAC and one got no treatment. The NAC group had much better hearing. Not only that, but the unprotected group had damage to the inner ear structure that’s responsible for turning sound into nerve impulses so your brain can make sense of it. But the NAC group stayed completely normal and totally protected.3 I recommend you take 800 mg a day of NAC to prevent hearing loss. Magnesium – We’ve known for years that magnesium is a powerful antioxidant and can even relieve headaches. But did you know it can improve hearing loss? A study of military recruits found even a small amount of magnesium every day helped protect the ear from noise-induced damage. Those who got magnesium were less likely to experience permanent hearing damage, and when they did experience hearing damage, it wasn’t severe.4 This could be because when the cells in your ear are low on magnesium, it causes you to release catecholamines and prostaglandins, which steal energy from the hair cells in your ears. These cells are connected to your cochlear nerve and they need all the energy they can get to protect themselves after noise exposure. Because what makes it worse is that low magnesium reduces microcirculation in your inner ear. And after loud noises, you have a 70% reduction in blood flow to the inner ear. It’s like a double whammy. You can get more magnesium by eating nuts, seeds, dairy products and dark green, leafy vegetables. But modern farming practices have depleted much of the mineral content in our soil, so there’s not much magnesium in vegetables any more. Magnesium used to be in your drinking water, but water with high mineral content – hard water – fell out of favor because most people don’t like the taste. If you can’t get enough magnesium through food, you can take a supplement. I recommend between 600 and 1000 mg a day. Take it with vitamin B6. It will increase the amount of magnesium that accumulates in your cells. Vinpocetine – In one study, hearing trauma disappeared in half of those who took it within one week of loud noises.5 Even if you don’t take it right away, vinpocetine can lessen the severity. Regardless of how long it was since the trauma, 66 percent had a significant decrease in hearing loss. I recommend 20 mg a day.
Sure ... some men are jerks. And fine, some women are just plain crazy. Now that I've acknowledged the two biggest stereotypes that people think are to blame for screwed up relationships, let me tell you what I really believe is the root cause of dating drama: Feelings of insecurity and low self-esteem. Now I'm not running around hugging trees and braiding daisies into my hair, but I honestly believe that we would all struggle a lot less with dating and relationships if we lived in a perfect world where each and every one of us were told from a young age that we were beautiful, special, and had unique gifts to give to the world - and to the person with whom we would eventually share our life. If each of us grew into self-assured women brimming with confidence, we would naturally possess the tools we need to live out the life of our dreams and create a healthy, happy, drama-free relationship with a man. Unfortunately, we're not living in a perfect world. Most of us spend a lot of time wondering whether we're pretty enough, smart enough, interesting enough, sexy enough, funny enough, thin enough ... (I could go on), and these worries can cause us to feel inadequate in a relationship. Since these worries feel so out of our control, and at the same time we want to be loved, we often cope by plunging ourselves head-first into a relationship believing that if we just focus all of our energy on making our man happy, everything will work out fine. We start making decisions based solely on what we think he wants or what he likes. We don't want to inconvenience him with our needs or give any strong opinions that might conflict with his own. Looking for reassurance, we may find ourselves clinging to our man, hoping that he will make us feel secure in the relationship - and in ourselves. We voluntarily stop doing some of the things we care about. We cancel plans with our girlfriends if we think that there's a chance our boyfriend will want to spend time with us. We mislead ourselves to think that if we just hang around him enough, we can make the relationship progress forward out of sheer will. (Not to mention the fact that if we always keep an eye on him, there's no way he could possibly ever cheat.) This is a big, fat mistake. Now pay close attention, because this is important: The security we so desperately seek in a relationship can only be found one way - by building confidence within ourselves. Luckily, if you are ready to learn how to Date Without Drama, you can replace those feelings of clinginess, neediness and insecurity with self-reliance, confidence, and positivity. And it doesn't matter if you're just starting out dating or already in a long-term relationship, it *is* possible to start feeling secure in your relationship - and your self - today Paige Parker
There is another Law in conscious creation of reality that is as equally important to understand as the Law of Attraction. It is the Law of Detachment. It is this Law that gives the crucial distinction in utilizing the Law of Attraction successfully. The Law of Detachment is complimentary to the Law of Attraction. The Law of Detachment says that in order to successfully attract something, you must be detached to the outcome. If you are attached, you project negative emotions of fear, doubt, or craving which actually attracts the opposite of your desire. You are operating from a position of worry, fear and doubt rather than serenity, trust and faith. Of course there are times when negative emotions are meant to be felt and acted upon, but your dominant emotions should be positive ones. Let go and let God. Anything you want can be acquired through detachment, because detachment is based on resting in the complete grace of God and knowing that He is always working everything through you and together for your greatest good. To be detached is to realize that everything good is from God and nothing at all is from you. It is God doing it through you and the other elements in your reality so there’s nothing to hold on to as your own, all you have to do is to have the right beliefs and let God do it. Ease and perfection of action depend entirely upon the degree in which we cease to depend upon the consciousness. You have to take your conscious mind off it in order to let your subconscious mind take over. The pilot and the autopilot cannot control the plane at the same time. You have to let go in order to let God take over. To detach is to allow the universe to bring your desire into manifestation whichever way is best for you. When you are detached, your desires will manifest much faster. To be attached means to be powerless because what you attach yourself to, you give your power to it. When you look to outside sources to bring you fulfillment, you are giving your power away. When you are looking to something outside yourself for power and happiness, you are making something other than your true self your source. Detach knowing that whatever you detach from has no power over you, but you have complete power over it. Attachment to anything will always create insecurity no matter how much of it you have. In fact, some of the people who have the most of what they want are the most insecure. Attachment to something makes you wonder if you will keep having it or if you may lose it. Insecurity causes unhappiness. The search for security and certainty is actually an attachment to the known. There’s no evolution in that, absolutely none at all. And when there is no evolution, there is stagnation, entropy, disorder, and disintegration. Uncertainty and the unknown is the field of all possibilities or pure potential. It is ever fresh, ever new, always open to the creation of new manifestations. It is the realm of pure creativity and freedom. When you are attached, your intention gets locked into a rigid mindset and you lose the fluidity, the flexibility, and the spontaneity inherent in the field of pure potential. When you experience uncertainty, you are on the right path so don’t give it up. You don’t need to have a complete and rigid idea of what you’ll be doing next week or next year, because if you have a very clear idea of what’s going to happen and you get rigidly attached to it, then you shut out a whole range of possibilities. Realize that there is an infinite intelligence working alongside your own and it is the one that can bring you a better way or more worthwhile experience. All you have to do is state your intentions and desires and detach from the how and when they manifest. Are there times when you want to work something out, but yet the more you try to work it out, the worse it gets? When God works, it is effortless. God arranges the situations for you when you are not in it, so that when you step in, you experience the blessings. It is so much better to depend on God than to depend on your own strength. Unless the Lord builds the house, they that labor do so in vain. What you can control, you should control. What you can’t control, you should let go and let God. When you trust God, everything is under control. God will never deny our request because whatever we want for ourselves we can manifest. But to experience nonresistance and effortless accomplishment, we must surrender to the will of the Universe who only wants for us nothing but the best for we are the beloved children of the Creator who wants us to have it all. As Jesus reminds us, “it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom.” You may have the intention of going in a certain direction but between point A and point B there are infinite possibilities. With uncertainty factored in, you might change direction in any moment if you find a higher ideal, or something more worthwhile pursuing. You are also less likely to force solutions on problems, which enables you to stay alert to opportunities. One door seems closed, but there is another open. What you want can always come in another way. God never closes a door without opening another one, so we need to stay alert to see whatever new opportunities life presents us. Imagine you found a job you’re looking for. It looks like the job you want, and it appears the odds are in your favor as you move from interview to interview within the office, yet at the last minute they choose to hire someone else. If you are detached then you trust that another opportunity, the right opportunity is on its way. However, if you are so attached to getting that job for whatever reason, you cause yourself lots of anxiety and stress if you don’t get it, which means you are looking for this job as an outside source to fulfill you on some level. The Law of Detachment accelerates the whole process of evolution. When you understand this law, you don’t feel compelled to force solutions. When you force solutions on problems, you only create new problems. But when you wait patiently and in faith, the right solution will arise on its own. Confusion is the doorway to a new understanding. Order will emerge from the chaos. We must have goals otherwise we are denying our inner desires, cutting ourselves off from growth and development. Goals inspire us to live, create and move forward. If we are not doing this, we are dying on the inside. We want to embrace desires and intentions but we just don’t want to cling to them. Of course, we all want to realize our goals and desires, however if realizing them is the source of our well-being, the source of our happiness or worthiness we will fail! We have all heard of or know the classic stereotypes called overachievers who appear to have it all, the money, the fame, the status, only to be miserable on the inside. They’ve been setting and realizing goals all their lives, and are still miserable. This is why detachment is so crucial. When you don’t have to have this thing in order to be well, or be happy, then you can let go and enjoy the process. Understand it is the process that is the joy, because the minute we realize our goal, we are going to be setting new goals. There is no realization of any goal that is going to be the completion of us, once we realize one goal we are going to keep moving forward, we are evolutionary beings. I am sure you have all experienced this. There is no way that the realization of goals is the source of our peace of mind or wholeness. The purpose of life is growth. Life without progress becomes unbearable. It is the cycle of continuous progress that makes us happy. We are Energy Beings and energy is always in motion. To live is to keep moving and flowing. When we stop we die. Nothing rests, everything moves. Only at the highest rate of movement where God is flowing continually in us is there rest. We learn from the law of attraction that all we experience is the result of what we feel. When we feel undesirable feelings, we attract undesirable experiences. Realize that when we feel undesirable feelings, it is because we are in a state of attachment to certain things that create those feelings. Break away from the attachment, stop worrying and bothering about it. Have not a care, act like it doesn’t matter and your feelings will be liberated to more positive ones of fun, joy and peace. The truth about States in NLP is really all about being in or out of alignment with your Higher Self. When you are in alignment, you experience all your desired states such as happiness, confidence, freedom, joy, peace, fulfillment, empowerment. When you are not in alignment, you experience all your undesired states such as worry, fear, anxiety, uncertainty, weakness, frustration, depression and disempowerment. So in essence, there are only two states, a state of alignment and a state of misalignment. The Higher Self is the divine and universal aspect of God in us. Paul says “in my flesh dwells nothing good”, but not “in my spirit”. Our spirit is the universal spirit of God. The image of God. No one else can take the place of your center except two persons. Christ in you and you in Christ. Anyone else that is close the center of your heart can only be allowed to orbit around the center and not placed in it. You are not to be attached to anyone or anything. To be in a state of non-attachment is to be like God. God is unattached to everything, he allows his creation to be free. If it wasn’t so, He wouldn’t give anything free will. Have not a care in the world. Be free spirited and carefree. Have fun, play the game. Remember there are no rules and there are no limits. Just have the attitude of doing something and then seeing what happens. Be in a position where you have nothing to lose. We are beings of evolution. It doesn’t matter whether the past experience was good or not. Keep moving on to the next one. Some of the best things you desire just seem to happen to you when you are in a total “I don’t give a damn” mode. And while it is happening, it is no big deal to you and it doesn’t matter. But you acknowledge the paradox of what’s going on in the situation, that you get what you want when you don’t really seem to want it. Be insistent yet detached. You focus on what you want, expecting it to happen and even when it didn’t happen, it doesn’t matter. Have a detached involvement. There is a fine line between caring in a detached way and being truly uncaring. Just like there is a fine line between perfect good and perfect evil. Because the opposite ends of a polarity spectrum are really just next to each other. Detachment does not mean we feel nothing. Detachment is not apathy or indifference. Detachment feels freeing! When we are successfully detached from the outcome we feel like the Universe has our back, like all is well, like we can trust in our greater good, like we are absolutely certain that all that we desire is already ours. It is essential to intentional creation to get into a feeling place of peaceful expectation that what we want is already at hand. As long as we are ‘attached’ we will continue to focus on the negative aspects of what we don’t want and the fears that come up as we doubt our ability to manifest. Do not engage in something if it is the only option you feel you have. You are being attached. You will be disappointed and mentally shifted out of alignment with your center, if the thing you want to do is not available for one reason or another at the time you want to do it. Create several other good options to take on in place of it at the time as well before you choose to engage in it. When you go ahead and do it in that manner, you will most likely get what you want because your energies are right. Enlightenment is a state of non-attachment. It is the realization that all suffering is burning energy on the uncontrollable. To be unattached is emotional freedom and psychological stability. Keep your thoughts flowing. As long as there is flow, there is abundance. The moment you rest at any place, you stagnate and there is lack. We are beings of evolution. When we accomplish goals, we set new goals. We either progress or regress, we never stand still. We feel like we are dying if we are not growing, and collapsing if we are not expanding. When you keep advancing, your intelligence and knowledge will be in effect. When you become attached, your intelligence and knowledge will be of no effect. To be in grace is to live in the truth that all things flow from God through you and so there is nothing to cling on to as yours. To be under the law is to be enslaved by the yoke of bondage which is attachment. To be attached is to fall from grace because you are trying to hold on to emptiness and are no longer flowing. When you are attached, Christ your Higher Self is of no effect unto you. When you are detached, you acknowledge that you are using God’s power and not your own. The more you are unattached, the more you allow God to flow in you and the more rapidly your desires will manifest because your Energy and vibrations are more aligned with the flow of God’s Energy and therefore that which you desire in your life. It is an enlightened way of living your life. You have to let go and trust that life itself is taking you to the things you desire. As you let go and trust, you feel different, you radiate a different vibration to the world, and better things and experiences come to you Again, the whole secret is in learning to simply let go. Learn to follow the quiet voice within that speaks in feelings rather than words. Follow what you hear inside, rather than what others may be telling you to do. The universe itself will act to move you to what you want, and move what you want to you. All you have to do is let go, while acting on your inner prompts. Let go of fear, doubt, worry, disappointment, and any other negative emotion that might make you feel low. Being unattached gives you the ability to drop whatever it is you are focusing upon at the moment and focus on something new. It makes you able to switch your concentration from one thing to another. It keeps your consciousness in flow and not fixed at any spot so it can be free and spontaneous in experiencing unfoldment. Effectively applying the law of attraction requires both desire and acceptance. Practicing the law of detachment is how we can accept and expect what we desire. The two laws work harmoniously to support us in effectively applying the power of our minds and the universal laws of creation. Every problem you experience in life is an opportunity for you to gain precious awareness that you do not already possess. A problem is an experience with a lesson to learn. The lesson contains the valuable awareness that will increase the sum total of your soul’s knowledge, that empowers you to a greater level of living and being. The key to learning the lesson is in perception and lateral thinking. Be flexible and have an open mind. You will find the solution that you are happy with. We are all instruments of God whether yielded or unyielded. When we are yielded, we are of more use and become more powerful instruments and also enjoy the process with greater happiness. Do not care, just surrender yourself to the flow of God. It is flowing all the time and when you are ready, it will flow through you. When you are detached, you are trusting and surrendering to God. Anytime you are not detached, you are not trusting, not surrendering and not yielding to God. The law of detachment explains why productivity increases when a person takes frequent breaks from work. Being able to constantly walk away from what you are doing puts you in a state of rest and thereby able to continuously reconnect with the flow of God by keeping your energy in motion and your mind afresh. You may have stepped out from the flow for a while and feel lost and break in momentum, but the flow is always there and you can step back into it again and it will be perfect. By Enoch Tan
"Our possessiveness makes us both anxious. How can we relax and enjoy our love without behaving as if we own each other?" Talk about the difference between possessiveness and love and, as you release the strings you've tied, then your love will shine with joy and so will you. "What are the greatest gifts we can give each other?" Mutual respect and kindness. They cost nothing and are love's greatest treasures. "If love were a picture, what it look like?" Enjoy imagining your own picture of what love means to you: it will be different for everyone. In Loving Service, Aurora

"Is a marriage that's been torn apart and then mended more fragile?" No, for the repair can draw you closer, deepen your understanding and create an even stronger union than before. "There's plenty of love in my life. Do I reallt need a loving relationship too?" Not necessarily, yet love with a partner is a wonderful way to be at home with love. "Is it good to be like my aunt who, although not oblivious to my uncle's faults, always finds soemthing good to say about him?" Yes. Looking for the silver lining is an excellent way to rationalize differences and remember the love you share. In Loving Service, Aurora
Detach from the outcome. Easy to say, way more difficult to do. Truth is.... constantly focusing on the problem, causes the delays, the change of outcome and most of the time, not getting the desire results. Yes, good comes from it, all the time, no matter how bleak the situation looks but not the satisfaction of achivement, what we wanted to begin with. When we focus on it, as we need it or else, that is when the trouble starts. Because this is turning into a controlling of the energy to show up as it wants and we cannot control anything. If we ask for anything as a prefference after we have focused the intention, and detach from the outcome letting " Lady Luck" do her job, most likely nothing will stop allowing it.

I had been asked so many questions regarding men and their behaviors and while each situation is unique, there is a common denominator . Most of men - I asked a few friends, said: We hurt women because they don't accept what we say and do at face value and some live their lives from signs and missions and symbols perspective. A few relationship coaches said: because women compete with one another , don't support each other in their goals and give the power away to the men- espeialyl in the love triangle where they are used asa scapegoat . From spiritual perspective: each man can only harm us if we love them more than we love ourselves , if we need their compliments to believe we are beautiful, sexy powerful and worthy of love and if we need( become addicted, obsessive ) of their sexual favors which we might confuse with love. What can you share on this topic? In Loving service, Aurora

"Do you think that a relationship is a living thing?"

Yes. It's a living thing that needs us to care for it and that, in return, cares for us.

 

"Does love involve self-sacrifice?"

Love often means putting the other person first and being selfless in our care, but martyrdom has no place in love.

 

"Can it be true that my partner bullies me because, he says, he loves me?

No. Love has no part in bullying or aggresion, Seek help and get away from him until and unless he has therapy for his problems and has reformed.

In Loving Service,

Aurora

 


As I write this week’s Newsletter ( Joy Star ) the Moon is in Gemini. Consequently, my mind is in more than one place at once, busy jumping here and there. I’m going to ‘go with it’ and so what follows will likely be a conglomeration of random thoughts about intuition and being psychic that I hope folks will consider to be helpful.
  1. Socially and culturally, generally speaking, we have exalted the left brain and the outer world knowing via reasoning and deduction and neglected for the most part right brain and intuitive development. I’d love to see intuitive development taught in our schools from kindergarten up through graduate schools!
  2. The complex problems of the world today especially in this information age could benefit from an intuitive approach.
  3. I wonder if, in this age of the blackberry and other hand held computer/phone devices, people are getting some sort of ‘going inward’ practice. Certainly, even in a crowd or group of people (from pre-teen, to teenage to practically middle age) we see each one having a hand-held device and focusing in some way inward. I sat at a dining room table this past weekend with a group of adults who each had a hand-held device doing their ‘own thing’. Could this be technology’s way of getting left-brained people to center and focus in a busy world? Is it at is at least a step in the right direction somehow for those who have never, ever meditated formally?
  4. The only way those hand held devices work in the first place is because of the inter-connectedness of energy that cannot be seen, heard, touched or smelled! So our hand-held technology is teaching in an indirect way about energy waves.
  5. The universe is everywhere made up of charged atomic particles and is filled with invisible force-fields that interact—this is exactly how cell phones, the internet and satellite communication (your GPS, etc.) works. Electromagnetic fields are what enable psychic and telepathic communications as well.
  6. In the theory of holography we have a model for how the brain processes information—read the book The Holographic Universe for more on this. Any piece of a hologram will reconstruct the entire image—this gives us the basis for understanding how the universe is within us! In a holographic reality there is no space-time dimension. And this non-local reality is where we connect to loved ones on the other side and connect with what we call the Divine Intelligence or at the very least the human (Sheldrake) morphogenetic fields of consciousness, collective unconscious (Jung) and/or the Akashic Records (Hindu/Vedas). When young kids or even adult kids use the internet or their magic handheld devices or drive around with the dashboard of their car talking (GPS’s), they are working with these models in a way to understand the nature of reality in such a way of interconnectedness. You’ve gotta’ love it, don’t you?
  7. Therefore, considering the above, the domain beyond time and space that is everywhere interconnected that we cannot see with our eyes exactly is not all that farfetched anymore. Further, we can therefore without too much trouble understand that the brain is an organ that is interpreting a holographic universe.
  8. Take it a step further (keeping how blackberry’s work in mind), we can posit that what we see with our eyes is NOT objective reality but a mathematical construct by our brain as interprets frequencies from a more fundamental dimension that transcends space and time. See the movie with Leo Dicaprio called INCEPTION! That movie will give you an idea of this.
  9. Did you ever wonder how GUT FEELINGS work? We can learn about that from the study of PNI (psycho-neuro-immunology). Digestive peptides are active agents in our mental processing is what PNI researchers say. It seems, based on what they tell us, that we think as much with our stomachs and intestines as with our brains. Our brain is a gland; hormones are the stuff of thought; the mind is non-localized (and not solely in the brain); however, mind exists everywhere in every cell of the body. Therefore, what we think about can influence the entire system. And what non-local mind (which is within us as much as it is in the entire universe) communicates with us or when we connect with it, the affect can relate with those digestive peptides and thus the GUT FEELINGS become triggered.
  10. Humans affect each other in subtle ways via the interactions of our fields. Thus, this is how we can walk into a room and know if a argument has recently taken place between two people who are there, even if they do not appear that way on their outside. Anyone who has felt someone staring at them from across the room also understands this—the electromagnetic field becomes disturbed.
  11. The spell of the materialistic world views can be broken by the new technologies based on energy fields and the interconnectedness of energy that makes those hand-held devices and the internet, et al, possible.
  12. Believing is seeing and not the other way around!
  13. If you are open to the discoveries of new science and new technology and give how they work an ounce of thought, you will be able to understand intuition and our interconnectedness to non-local mind and the human morphogenetic fields of consciousness. (Yes, you really CAN still talk to grandma!)

Something to think about.

 

Your love belongs to you.

Your love is not in someone else’s hands. It belongs to you. It comes from your affectionate nature, your imagination, and your impulses to know and be known by another human being.

Love isn’t a competitive sport. Love is not a trading game. Love is not blind either. You don’t have to play pride games. You don't have to pour your heart out for others to know.   Even if the worst happen and you are undeniably rejected, there‘s great dignity in saying: I loved her and she didn’t love me. I loved him but she didn’t love me.  And I am talking about the expression os loving back in ways that make sense and make you smile. In spite of behavior, we love one another anyways. Love,  is like breathing, love is .

You are loved by God and the reason of being here is to love yourself as much as you love others. And to bring God into everything you are, do , have and want to become.

 

Namaste!

Aurora
