The miracle of gratitude

Posted on by

Openhearted gratitude acts like a magnet, bringing more joy and abundance into your experience.

“Gratitude turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos into order, confusion into clarity…it makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow.”
~Melody Beattie~

You are the master of your own experience. You choose: happiness or misery, lack or abundance, gratitude or resentment. All that you wish to manifest must begin with a willingness to receive.
With each expression of gratitude, we send purposeful energy outward. It gathers momentum, expands exponentially and returns in miraculous ways. You may discover the art of being grateful for something that has yet to occur as if it is already solid and present in your experience. This joyful and powerful visualization becomes reality.
Where many people become stuck is in the timing of what they perceive as appropriate. When we believe that our very human perception of time is more important than the perfect timing of the Universe, gratitude is sometimes negated by impatience. Thoughts such as “I’m doing everything right, why isn’t anything happening!!” can sabotage our best efforts.
Remind yourself that the journey unfolds in whatever way is most appropriate for your souls growth. Do your daily work, be consistent, never stop learning. Your life’s purpose is to awaken.
 
Today my intention is to be grateful for 10,000 things.

Seeds of possibility

Posted on by

An entire world of possibility resides within you.

“You are not limited to any possibility, you have an unlimited being. You can be anything; the next moment can bring anything.”
~Osho~

Seeds can last a long time and still remain viable. In their hard shell, they are safe; however, growth requires change, vulnerability and a willingness to leave the safety of the known. Once a seed sprouts anything can happen…
Never underestimate what can come from small acts of kindness. The seeds we plant have the potential to change a life, create greater insight or take us in new and exciting directions.
This is the moment of transformation and it is filled with infinite potential. Higher consciousness expands our ability to recognize the possibilities available to us. As you awaken, your choices will bring you greater peace, happiness and balance.
 
Today my intention is to remember that the essence of faith is surrender. I am thrilled by the journey of the unknown.

Verbal chakra balance

Make energetic and spiritual balance a part of your daily routine.

“When we create peace, and harmony and balance in our minds, we will find it in our lives.”
~Louise Hay~

Throughout daily experience we can often absorb energies from other people, places or stressful situations. Spiritual seekers are typically very open and it’s important to release any heaviness from our auras on a daily basis. There are many ways to do this such as meditation, daily gratitude walks, visualization, playing with crystals, forgiveness work or prayer.

A daily clearing, built into your morning or evening routine, allows you to re-balance more easily. If you wait for health issues or life challenges to grab your attention, you may need outside assistance to realign your chakras.

Using the verbal chakra balance above, begin with the crown chakra and briefly touch each one (crown, 3rd eye, throat, heart, solar plexus, belly and root) as you say the mantra aloud. It can also be helpful to complete the process by setting a daily intention.

Remember, your thoughts and intentions create your reality. When your mind, body and spirit are balanced, you will see it reflected in your life experience.
 
Today my intention is to remember that I am responsible for my own joy.

Self realization

Posted on by

Humility opens us to receive.

“All you need is already within you, only you must approach yourself with reverence and love. Self-condemnation and self-distrust are grievous errors . . .”
~Nisargadatta Maharaj~

Love yourself enough to be patient with your spiritual growth. Let your inner dialogue be consistently supportive of your light and your expansion. Kindness is the natural by-product of honoring your own path as sacred.
Observe your thoughts. Does your inner critic block you from feeling peaceful? It can sometimes be difficult to see ourselves objectively. The world (and your interpretation of it) are a direct reflection of how much you love yourself. Are you able to see the best in others or recognize the potential in others? Apply that same gentleness to yourself.
Everyone, no matter what role they play in this lifetime, is a spark of the Divine in motion. If someone triggers you, remember that it is because they are reflecting something about yourself that you do not like to see. Purposely choose to go within. As you heal your own wounds and dysfunction, you’ll discover that you are less triggered by the dysfunction in others. Thus, peace is possible.
 
Today my intention is to be grateful to those who act as mirrors in my life. I am a lifetimes student of love.

Pure actions

What would life be life if you were never disappointed again?

“Stop playing it safe by trying to avoid adversity. Act from the heart and let circumstances unfold as they will.”
~Ezra Bayda~
When conscious mindset transforms into conscious motivation and action, we bring light to the world. Sometimes it can be challenging to know what “right action” is; therefore, choose to act with integrity, do your best,  and accept what is.

Our human perception is very limited. There can often be threads of unseen energies that expand outward changing lives, paving the way for new experience or accelerating spiritual awakening. As we become more clear, it’s amazing to watch the miracles of life unfold.

If you notice anxiety arising when choosing to take action, see it as an indicator that you are attached to an outcome. Likewise, disappointment is another indicator (after the fact) that attachment has occurred. Utilize both as opportunities to adjust expectations and practice acceptance.

Love lies at the core of all that we experience.
Today my intention is to live this moment as clear and peaceful as possible.

All is perfect, whole and complete

The higher your level of consciousness, the more you can see.

“When life presents difficulties we can crumble or we can learn. Aspiring to be free tips the scale toward learning.”
~Ezra Bayda~
Imagine if you could view the world in such a way that all you see is the expression of the sacred in everyone and everything. It’s important to learn to recognize the truths that lie hidden within the obvious. Contrasts allow us to explore the various nuances of experience until we cultivate compassion.

Experiencing hatred teaches us the value of love. Grief opens our heart to the many joys of life. Your enemies teach the importance of friendship. Everything works toward the highest good of all involved.

Once we are on the other side of drama, we can often recognize the gifts we have received from facing our challenges. The awakened spirit is able to seek and recognize gifts while in the midst of conflict and thus, is able to navigate it with greater clarity.

Love yourself enough to periodically take a step back and view your life objectively. Remind yourself that all is well, that you are protected and see the perfection of the present moment.
Today my intention is to remember that we are all just walking one another home.

The souls light

Posted on by

Enlightenment is simply that – bringing light to your experience.

“Spirituality is not the practicing of any virtue; spirituality is the gaining of new vision. Virtue follows that vision; it comes on its own accord. It is a natural by-product. When you start seeing, things start changing.”
~Osho~
This is the moment of transformation and you can create a new way of being. To do so, we must first release all that blocks our vision. It’s time to drop the old scripts and dialogues that have created prisons in our experience. To be alert and present is to be One With Life.

Conscious and purposeful surrender is empowerment. As we learn to see beyond the mechanisms of the ego, we discover a loving humility that honors this moment as sacred. This fullness, this openness, sets us on a path of freedom.

Bring the light of consciousness to your daily experience. It transforms all that it shines upon. You are the dance of the Divine in human form and your beautiful energy can light up the world.
Today my intention is to see through the eyes of love.
Blessings,
Krystina, Kismet and Minky

 

Enlighten your spirit

What is your life’s purpose?

“Set your life on fire. Seek those who fan your flames.”
~Rumi~
Passion inspires us to reach new heights. It demands vitality and vision and through it, we are transformed. Imagine how your life experience would change if your greatest passion was simply to awaken. Your definition of success would change. Your motivations would naturally align with spiritual enlightenment. You would discover that every moment offers an opportunity for expansion.

…And yet, along the way it can be easy to get distracted. Desire creeps in and the focus shifts to obtaining the right job, mate, home, title, fame, children, security. What began as a simple enthusiasm for life and joy becomes multi-layered desire that offers continuing highs and lows depending upon our attachment to outcomes. There’s nothing wrong with having preferences or goals; however, it’s important to remember that nothing is more important than your joy.

You are here to awaken. How you choose to do that is part of your unique journey. Remind yourself often to create a passionate life experience. Fill your life with positive, supportive people, approach each day as an adventure and nurture your soul.
Today my intention is to say “Yes” to life.

Peace begins with me

Posted on by

First, create peace within your own mind… from there, anything is possible.

“Maturity has nothing to do with your life experience. It has something to do with your inward journey, experiences of the inner.”
~Osho~
Spiritual maturity is a deep realization of the fulfillment of your potential. As we realize that there is nothing to prove and no one special to be, we become peaceful in the present moment. Your life experiences will reflect your inner peace as the dance of existence takes on a new quality.

When you reach this stage of awakening, you’ll discover that nothing outside will ever be more important than your joy. Slow down. Be fully present and enjoy what is. Eat peacefully. Observe peacefully. Work peacefully. You have the power to create ease and grace within your experience.

Practice stillness. Sit and breathe while quieting the mind. A little quietude each and every day will open new dimensions of insight. As you explore within, you’ll discover a deep well of peacefulness that exists even when life presents a flurry of activity and change. This is empowerment.
Today my intention is to honor the truth of my soul. I live in harmony with life itself.

Healing angels

Posted on by

Patterns repeat until we no longer need them.
“The fact that relationships often bring the most painful and unhealed aspects of our life out of the shadows makes them a powerful teacher. Yet who really wants such a teacher? In truth, what we want from relationships is… what we what! The beauty of relationships as spiritual practice is that the disappointment of not getting what we want eventually motivates us to awaken.”
~Ezra Bayda~
In the dance of life, lessons will arrive in differing forms until we have had the opportunity to examine them from every angle. Experience leads to wisdom and wisdom leads to compassion.
When we are ready to break free from a limiting belief, we will send out a request (at the level of spirit) indicating our desire to face a particular pattern. The souls who respond love you enough to risk your displeasure (on the level of form) and will play whatever role is needed for your growth. These beautiful souls are called our healing angels.
Our healing angels provide an opportunity to release old beliefs or discover a healthier way of dealing with repeating challenges. Resist nothing. Observe what role you may play in repeating circumstances and consciously choose to do things differently. This may take a few tries, after all, you’re exploring new realms of experience. It can often be difficult to recognize a pattern when you are immersed within it; however, asking yourself if a particular situation is bringing up familiar feelings, responses or thoughts is a good place to begin.
Finally the day will come when you recognize that you’re responding differently than you ever have. You may see the humor, feel neutral, or simply have compassion for those who have yet to learn that particular lesson… and then it’s off to the next.
Today my intention is to be grateful for those who have helped me to break free from limiting beliefs.
