The Awakening

What does it mean to awaken or expand your consciousness? It means that you are ready to step out of what has been passed down as true, or what you thought you believed as true, to uncover the truth for yourself. The only thing you start to trust is yourself, to think for yourself, to learn for yourself. You want to know if there is more to this exsistence than just life and death. Is there an answer to this question and did most people just stopped looking for it? Better yet, can it be found? Have others really found it?

Why would you do this? Truly, there are many reasons to step outside the box and look around more. Happiness is a huge one, we are always looking for more happiness and we want to expand it. We want to be better for our children, our partners, our friends, our neighbors, and most importantly, ourselves. We know it makes us feel better to share love and happiness. A smile, a quick chat, a hug, a kind word, an ear for someone to feel heard; they make us feel good along with the other person receiving it. Keep this in mind for how this creates more positive energy in the universe; this is just one way, I will share more later.

However, the world seemed to be filled with more unhappiness; with unnecessary war, greed, anger, judgement, and 'against each other' attitude. Like it's one big contest to step on each other the hardest. With that, we notice that things don't make sense. Why am I working all the time? I can't stand my job, but I need it. Why does money not make me happy or I feel like I'm always broke? Why does my body hurt and I feel sluggish? Why can't I stop habits that I know aren't good for me? Why do I let others affect me so much? Why do I let others walk on me? Maybe it feels like we are stuck and not going anywhere; constantly spinning our wheels expending energy to get no where. Basically, we start to notice the imbalance of our energy; most of our energy is going to other sources like: worry, fear, judgement, hate, disgust, guilt.

At this stage of awareness, we are bleeding energy with negative thought patterns more than we are enjoying life. We will continue to get what we see, do, feel, and say. These negative thoughts keep us in a pattern of inactivity and non-growth itself. The emotions drop our energy because it is being diverted to this patten. Naturally, this drops our frequency and vibration. The more we think about it and give it attention, the more it becomes our truth. When our energy is low, we open a door for illness.

So if that is true, and we get sick from our own thoughts, actions, and words, we must find a way to change that pattern and it will naturally reverse. This is one of the most simple laws of the universe; our frequency and vibration will attract what we project, it is reciprocal. Higher vibrations attract positive outcomes, lower attract lower. This means that we can help our body heal from the patterns that got us there. It has just as much power to heal us, as it did to make us ill. Some might say, it has even more power to heal once we fully accept and comprehend the incredible awakening into consciousness. We are every thought, action, word, and intention that we do with the body and mind. The body is a mirror of these things; the mind is the projector.

Some might say, "Well I've always been like this _______(fill in the bank)." In return I would say, "It's because your body thought you wanted to be that way just by thinking that way." This brings us into HOW to accomplish this. Now this is the part that gets hard. Not hard in the sense of pushing a rock up a hill, but more like doing work to understand your own negative thought patterns. To help, I like to think of the negative person inside us as our 'ego'.

The ego is meant as a safety to keep us in check; we have to fear things to not get hurt, we have to know we aren't the smartest person in the world, we have to stand up for ourselves, we have to find pride in taking care of ourselves, and we have to accept that our bodies are all different. The ego can be a bit too big or a bit too small in some cases. Basically, do you like to be in charge and always correct? Do you get angry or frusterated with other people easily? Yours is probably to big at times. Opposite, do you find it hard to make decisions without someone else's opinion? Do you find it hard to make changes even when you're not always happy? Do you find it hard to confront people or stand up for yourself? You guessed it, your ego needs a boost.

First step: balance the ego and start acting as the ideal positive-person you want to be. You believe in yourself, you know your worth, and you lead with kindness and acceptance. Start looking for things that make you happy: nature, pets, comfy couches, soft blankets, moonrise, sunsets, fresh air, and so on. We want to find things that make us happy solo, if possible. This is an important part of working on yourself; trusting yourself to be alone with yourself. Place yourself mentally in these happy places and thoughts as often as possible throughout the day. Place them when waking up and before going to sleep. What do you love about this planet? This expereince? What do you want to expereince more of? This places the pattern in the brain, just by repeating it more often. To level this up, put as much detail as possible when thinking about a happy place: close the eyes and take 3 deep breathes. Think about a happy place just for you; how it makes you feel? What does this happy place look like, sound like, feel like, smell like, and even taste like?

If you are projecting happy and someone is pooping on your happiness, sit back and observe: what would be the appropriate response to learn something or teach something from this interaction? Maybe it's to walk away, maybe it's to ask for clarification, or maybe we accept if we had any fault. With a clear mind and leading with a balanced ego, the appropriate response will follow. We add energy to our positive pile this way; and without judgement of the other person, we accpet that they may not be in a place to feel happiness or acceptance today. We know it takes work and awakening to find this point in learning and attitude. Alternatively, if we are constantly getting frustrated with others, we need to sit back and calm the ego. With the same acceptance, know that we have the power to teach a lesson or respond calmly to find out more from this person. Why get mad at someone because they don't think or communicate like you? Sounds silly now doesn't it? Every person will either want to learn and get to this balance, or they will be okay with where they are. For us, we understand that we are all connected, so if we treat others with disrespect, or cause them pain, we are only doing this to ourselves. When we learn this rule, we would also not allow it to happen to ourselves. This can also be connected to balancing our chakras, chi, or meridian energy. Acceptance is key. We can supply knowledge and be a light, but they have to pick the light themselves.

Once the ego can accept that we are allowed happiness, love, and balance; the body will already start to naturally heal and restore energy. You can continue to treat your own body as a receiver and resonator of love; enjoying more precious moments, and better sleep and health. This is where we can stay at level 2-3 consciousness and be merry on planet Earth until our demise. Or, we can continue to level up to 5+ consciousness levels and start to understand what this existence thing is really all about. Just know that you are never alone. Even cooler, the guides that are always with you want to shed loving light and support when you are ready for more help. You start this solo, but you end up enriched in infinite energy as we go further and further. This is where the complete veil thins and we accept we are not just the only beings here (or there, or over there). The entire universe is connected to you through energy (quantum field-ether) that we can't see. We only see 7 colors in the visible light spectrum, but there is much more to the fabric that we don't see. Start to understand that everything is connected by energy and has consciousness. You have the power to receive more of this energy and consciousness when you are ready to handle it.

For that will be another entery to follow. It will be for those that seek the absolute truth, and want to help others do the same. Each level has more actions and requirements, but the possibilites are limitless.

With light and love,
