The Universe responds to the energy we radiate through our dominant feeling and thought tones.  Our world then reflects the energy we express most consistently. We can however, intentionally align with the positive vibrations of Source Energy and  therefore create what is most desired. By learning to access  and allow the limitless flow of blissful energy consistently, we can manifest miracles from the inside out! (My personal practices are listed below)

 

We understand how significant it is to exercise our physical bodies daily for maximum health and our mind for mental clarity, but we have not yet embraced how important it is to create balance within our emotional and spiritual bodies too.  To become peaceful, compassionate and effortlessly intuitive, we also must spend time nurturing our whole being including our spiritual being.  

 

Our Spirit is constantly communicating with us about what we need in order to feel balanced, vibrant and allowing of the Highest light within us.  When we are anxious, our spirit communicates that we are in need of cultivating calm peacefulness through our attention to it.  When we are feeling low self esteem, we are being called to to bring loving compassion to the source of our pain.  Where ever we are hurting, we are recieving a call from our spirit to nurture this place within us with the positive focus it is lacking.  Sometimes it is an important to give ourselves support while we learn these practices, until we can nurture our selves in a holistic manner with consistency. 

 

Below are some of my daily practices, which I hope you will find supportive in your spiritual journey.

 

Prayer:  I engage in active dialogue with the Divine. I thank the Creative Source of the Universe for all its blessings.  I thank God for allowing me to lovingly, joyfully, abundantly serve!  I spend time expressing gratitude in devotional prayer and throughout the day. 

 

Intentionality: I purposefully align with the Divine Love, Light within my mind, my body, my emotions, my actions, my words, my spirit. invision the day as a joyful flowing, loving expression of Divinity in every possible way. 

 

Allowing:  I actively practice the art of allowing love and light into every aspect of my being daily.  I experience this blissfulness and intentionally allow it to radiate freely from my being into the world.  I surrender attachments to outcomes or experiences having to be a certain way.  I bring my attention into the Now and allow the divine essence of Source to flow through my mind, emotions, body and soul. 

 

Exercise: I purposefully engage in actions that uplift and open my body to allow higher energies to flow through me.  Dance, walking, yoga, swimming...movement that feels nurturing to the whole being with a positive focus (health, joy, nourishment).  I practice attentiveness to my body when exercising.

 

Silent Meditation:  I sit in a comfortable position, with spine open and erect, breathing deeply, consciously and practice stillness.  I cultivate a deliberate relationship with the inner stillness beneath the chatter of mind, emotions.  When I first began to meditate, my mind and body was extremely resistant.  I chose to be gentle with this resistance and push myself through it with compassion, one step at a time.  When I began, I was only able to sit quietly for 3 minutes at a time.  Today, I lose time completely and sit until complete.  Sometimes this will be an hour or more. 

 

Intuitive Listening:  I intentionally connect with my intuition daily.  I ask for and allow my self to recieve the Highest Level Guidance available to me.  If I have a specific question, I ask and allow answers to arise. If I am attached to the answer, it will not arrive.  If I am open to the Divine Answer, it comes easily and effortlessly through any channel of intuition open to recieving.  When I have no specific question to ask, I am open to the Highest level guidance for me in any given moment.  I allow the information to come to me, without filtering what arrives.  I practice listening, trusting, enacting on Divine Guidance through each day. 

 

Guided Visualization:  I call forth the Divine Light into every cell of my being in all directions of time.  I radiate Divine Light and align visually with the Source of Love & Light.  I visualize what I desire to experience and engage all my senses.  By doing so, I allow myself to be there now in my mind, body, emotions and spirit knowing that it is only a matter of allowing that will bring this direct experience into the physical world.  I have learned to be unattached to how, where, when the universe creates through me or for me.  In this way, I experience the joy of creation at every phase of its expression.

 

Silence:  I spend significant time in silence every day.  Intentional silence in meditation is one thing, but silence and presence beyond meditation is another.  I spend time being in the silence of the universe.  This can be in my home, my car, walking, working.  By surrendering to the Now, I cultivate the presence to the Source with no external artificial stimulation added.

You do not need to be aligned with any religion or a specific understanding of The Creative Source of Life to pray. 

 

Prayer is a conversation with the Creative Forces of our Universe.  Prayer is your personal connection with your Spirit and the Source of All-that-is in the way you feel deeply true for you! 

 

Meditation is the allowing of the universe to respond by creating the space where answers, wisdom, insight, higher truth can be attained. 

 

 

 

Gratitude as Prayer or Meditation

 

Gratitude is a powerfully creative vibration of alignment with the Divine Flow of Light.  When you focus upon what you appreciate, your heart opens and expands.  That expansion has a feeling tone that is a signal to the universe which is magnetic to more that is positive and similar to what you are grateful for.

 

If you are suffering from anything and thankfulness feels so difficult in the moment, breathe deeply and find one small place for which you can feel grateful.  When I was suffering with profound despair, gratitude was no easy task.  But, it was clearly the pathway to healing my aching heart.  By focusing on one small thing I was able to gently, eventually transcend the deep pain in my being.  To feel grateful for my breath, running water, a roof, a bed to lie upon, a shoe to wear, a body, a mind that can think clearly, that I can feel......whatever you can feel grateful for will expand and begin healing your suffering. 

 

Thank you Lord/Universe for the infinite blessings of my life. Thank you for my life. Thank you for my breath. Thank you for my vision. Thank you for my clear mind. Thank you for my healthy body. Thank you for my voice. Thank you for my hearing.  Thank you for loving relationships in my life.  Thank you for my ability to pray.....

 

Thank for Your presence in my life. 

Thank you for uplifting me. 

Thank you for my healing. 

 Thank you for my prosperity. 

Thank you for blessing me with the miracle today!

 

If it is still too hard to find gratitude within, this may help:

 

I am willing to feel gratitude.

I am willing to see this situation differently.

I am open to a miracle.

I am willing to see this through Divine Eyes.  I surrender this perception and situation to YOU Universe, now. 

I am open to recieving a

Divine Solution now. 

Thank you. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

May the Light of Love uplift you

May the blessings of Source enfold You

May your heart be open

And filled with Divine Love Always

May all your moments reflect

the Divinity that you are!

Amen.

Where is my Light? 

My Light  is in me. 

Where is Hope?

My Hope is in me. 

Where is my Strength?

My Strength is in me.  

And in You.

 

-Rabbi S. Wine

  

 

Did you nurture your spirit today?

Conscious Living is not something we attain or strive for.  Conscious Living is experienced here and now, through our willingness to surrender that part our mind/being which clings to ego.  We set our intention to be present to life and then allow ourselves to be with life as it is. As we surrender into the moment of life, allowing its blissful rays of truth to enfold, uplift and fulfill us here and now we do not go into meditation in hopes of gaining something; we sit in meditation to experience the bliss of now.  We breathe deeply into this moment, awake, feeling its fullness; the shadow and light all at once.  Through presence, we see the seedling, the development, the life and death in the flower we behold. We experience the eterntiy of divinity and impermanence of all else.  Peace exists within us, we experience it and therefore bring it fully into our life.  We become what we have been seeking and we seek no more.  We see, feel, know, sense and allow our being to be here, now.  That is the art of conscious living; that is the art of living intuitively.
