Shifting the Paradigm with or without Validation

Posted on January 21, 2012 by admin

Here we are, shifting the paradigm one awakened soul at a time, doing what we can in our own small, tiny, minute way. Sometimes our efforts are noticed, sometimes they are not. Sometimes our efforts are appreciated, sometimes they are not. Sometimes we receive gratitude, sometimes we do not. But none of this really matters. External validation can be a nice motivator, but it should never be the aim. Do what you can do for others, do as much as you can whether you are noticed for it or not. This is what will awaken souls. This is what will shift the paradigm. This is what will usher us into The Golden Age.

The Trail of Synchronicity: Looking Back

Posted on January 3, 2012 by admin

Consider where you are in life, either physically, emotionally, or spiritually. Focus on whatever aspect of where you are that feels the most pertinent to how you define yourself. Now examine what brought you there. Cast your mind backwards to a time you can remember when your life was very different, however long that is for you. Years? Months? Days? Hours? Decades? Now examine the steps that got you to where you are from then to now. What was the first step? Was it a conscious decision that you made, or was it a force out of your hands? If it was a conscious decision, what inspired it? If it was out of your hands, what brought it on? Most importantly, examine your feelings surrounding it. Happy? Sad? From that step, what led to the next? The next? The next? From your starting point, how many of these steps led you to where you are? How did you make each of the decisions that got you to where you are? How many where simply “gut decisions?” You made them because they just felt right? This is the trail of synchronicity. Your spirit guides where nudging you in the right direction.

Saying “No”

Posted on January 2, 2012 by admin

It is true that people respond to your strongest qualities, those qualities in you that dominate your essence, your personality. If your personality is dominated by a sense of sadness or anxiety, people will not feel empowered by your presence. If you have about you a sense of strength and power, people will respond to you in a much more positive way. This is where the ability to say “no” without hesitation or flinching becomes powerful. “No” not in a negative or unhappy way, but rather “no” in a personal strength sort of way.  “No” as a way to maintain your own strength and own sense of space. “No” as in “I am not simply going along with everything that people throw at me, but rather I will maintain my own integrity and strength, not being washed away in the floods of your demands.”

Dealing with Problems

Posted on December 12, 2011 by admin

We all have our problems, we all have our issues to deal with. The question becomes can we do this, can we deal with out issues without degrading ourselves or others? How we handle our problems and our situations go a long ways towards defining who we are. If we cling to the crutch of addictions to get us through our problems, we will be seen as incapable of functioning without clinging to the false hope that addictions represent. If we can’t cope with our problems and issues without attacking and demeaning others in the process, we will be seen as a very insensitive type who is not pleasant to be around. Deal with your problems and face your issues head on and not back down from them. Work through them. Do not simply push them aside. Pushing them aside will not fix or solve them. Pushing them aside will only postpone them. They will come back in another form or other, probably even stronger than before to be dealt with. Once you deal with them, you are done with them. They go away. They are gone.

Sending Distance Reiki to Self in the Past

Posted on December 11, 2011 by admin

Send all the love, light, and Reiki energy you can to you r past self, to the times you were having difficulty and troubles. It will undoubtedly make a difference between stagnating in self pity and depression and ascending to the light, using this pain and darkness as a cocoon, a catalyst for change- a prompt for inner reflection to find that core you, that spark of divinity, your star quality and give it that energy it needs to shine. Sending this energy to your past self may also help you, guide you to seeing the pain you are in, and the suffering you are undergoing as opportunities and lessons for forgiveness. Who or what have you perceived as causing this dark time for you? Do you see them now as placed in your path as instruments, instigators of growth? Sending Reiki to your past self is one of the greatest acts of love and compassion you can do for yourself. There will be moments that your past self will have unexplained moments of bliss that they cannot explain. These will be felt as divine gifts, a moment of rest in the otherwise turbulent journey of chaos. Your past self may ask, “Where did that come from?” You may not have an answer for where it came from, but you will certainly appreciate it. It may not be in your awareness yet to give thanks to the universe just yet for such things, but the universe knows your gratitude. Perhaps this unexpected moment of bliss will be the beginning of your spiritual journey. Perhaps this will put you on your spiritual path. Perhaps seeking an answer to this unexpected moment of bliss will be what instigates your eventual foray into Reiki to begin with. Look for yourself in The Silence and give yourself a Reiki treatment. It’s one of the most amazing gifts you can give yourself.

What new approach can you take to change this disappointment into something more positive? If you know the outcome may be disappointment, you may also change your attitude about it.

Does the disappointment still happen?

Economy of Addiction

Posted on December 9, 2011 by admin

For some, their economy revolves addictions. Scraping money together to buy cigarettes. Scraping money together to buy alcohol. Scraping money together to buy whatever they need to superficially hold their selves together. And who profits from these addictions? Who’s bank accounts soar for the addictions of others? These people who can identify these addictions and feed them, foster them, provide for them and cater tot hem. This is the economy of addiction. It does seem that addictions can keep a person down. Cigarettes, alcohol significantly lower the vibrations of those who indulge. The earth is at a point of ascension. As a species, it is imperative to raise our individual vibration level, that our individual vibrations will form a collective whole in terms of vibration level. Yet there are those who encourage the lowering, even the deadening of the vibrational level by feeding and providing for these addictions. This is the economy of Addiction. What can be done? Constantly be an example of what an increased vibrational level can be. Spread your light as the best you can in your way. Hope to influence. Hope to be seen, felt. Simply do what you can without slipping into the trap of judgment.

Empathy Yoga

Posted on December 4, 2011 by admin

Some people, you know? Some people have that certain quality or other that makes you want to run in the other direction. Do we run in the other direction when they come close? We really can’t do that. That is socially unacceptable. And these are not inherently “bad” people. They simply have a quality about them that goes against our own equilibrium, balance, so what do we as empaths do to tolerate these people without letting on that we are having a difficult time with them? It is really not fair or socially acceptable to expect them to change in any way to suit our expectations or wants of social interactions. All we can do, really, is cope. Take the yogic way and just breathe. Remind ourselves that our time with them will not be forever. Just breathe. In time, we will be away from them in time. Shavasana. What lessons can be learned? As always, examine what it is that we truly find problematic about them and determine what of ourselves is being reflected back to us from them. As always, follow the shadows back to the light. As always, judge neither them nor yourself. Do not judge them for whatever you find unpleasant. Do not judge yourself for feeling disturbed or upset around them. Following the shadow back to the light in this instance can be quite revealing and surprising. Sometimes the shadow can be followed back to an entirely other lifetime.

Procrastination

Posted on November 18, 2011 by admin

Procrastination is the mud that will keep the chariot stuck on the road to success. Procrastination will keep you from seeing the road beyond the next hill. Procrastination will prompt you to say “I can’t accomplish the next three steps because I haven’t finished this one yet.” Well then finish this one! One, two, three, you’re done! What’s keeping you from doing it but your own mind? Those that can break the bonds of procrastination are the ones that succeed in their goals, for by accomplishing that first step, they clear the way for the second and third. This how goals are achieved. This is how success becomes manifest.
