Helpful Hints for Daily Writing.

How is your daily writing practice going?  What has shifted in your life? Its been about 5 weeks since I recommended trying this.   Have you been distracted and forgotten about it?  
Sometimes people who I work with resist journaling.  They subconsciously decide not to do it because it can reveal a great deal of insights they may prefer not to reflect on.  Yet writing can result in clarity and freedom  as you realize what may be keeping you from sustained divine living.     


 I find there are three common reasons people give me for not journalling. I will cover two in this weeks blog and one in next .    I’ve included the suggestions I offer to help them get on track. 


Do you have a reason I haven’t listed here?   Ultimately of course, it is your choice but if you want to give journaling a try, here are some suggestions. 

 
a. But I Don’t Like to Write.

If the idea of writing is foreign and uncomfortable, I urge you to try it again daily for 3 weeks. That’s the minimum length of time it takes to establish a new habit. You may want to start on a long weekend or vacation.  Set the positive intention that you are willing to take 20-30 minutes to sit, reflect and doodle, draw pictures and write in any form.  Don’t worry about spelling, punctuation or grammar or even if it makes sense.  You can close your eyes and imagine an aspect of divine living as pictured in the header at the top of the page.  Listen to your divine self and write what inspires you. 

You can also audio record instead of writing a journal, at least until you feel comfortable knowing what to say. The advantage of writing is that it’s easier to review and see changes in your thinking and behaviour patterns, and other clues that might enhance your evolution to higher divine consciousness. 

 b. But I Don’t Know What to Write!    

I find journaling really makes a difference for people who are experiencing overwhelm.  It gets all the low vibration mind chatter, clutter, 'what ifs, ands, buts and maybes'  out onto the page, leaving room for clarity and allowing higher vibration thoughts and divinely inspired ideas of new possible responses to replace the chaotic ones. I can personally testify to its effectiveness as can many people who use this technique.

Some people find it difficult to know where to start.  Write about how it feels to be sitting there not knowing what to write about. 

You can start with that observation.  “I don’t know what to write I feel silly sitting here, what will I say? It feels like, (for example), when I used to try and write a paper in school and I couldn’t think of a thing to write.  I hated wasting time when I really wanted to....  Right now I’d rather be...; and you start to identify some of your likes and activities.  Without realizing it you just started a list of what to do when you are stressed or overwhelmed.  Just write stream of consciousness, whatever else comes. Commit to being in one place for 20 minutes and sincerely intend to journal. 

If you really believe you are stuck, you may find  writing flows more easily if you move or sing for a minute or two, with the intention of accessing your creative brain. You may decide not to read what you have written right away.  
Or you can try using the writing prompts I mentioned in my January 15 Blog to start your ideas flowing.  


Whatever works.  Just Journal It

Next week I'll share the other major reason people give for not doing a daily writing practice...... lack of time.

Reframe your perceptions to experience a divine LIfe

 As a member of the U R So Divine community, you probably  generally experience life from a  high vibeing, joy filled, supercreative state of well-being.
Perhaps you are like some people who are newer to this lifestyle, and have a limiting belief that we cannot sustain this state. 

Although I do occasionally slip into a lower frequency, I do have friends and colleagues who haven't for a couple of years.  Their perspective is consistently creating genius and wonder in everything they encounter their world. They aren't fazed if income is lower one month, or if someone close to them experiences illness.  I do believe living in high frequency is a habit and the more you practice it, the more likely you are to sustain a thriving divine existence. 

How can you change your perspective?
Here's some ideas to shift your perspective, if you still find yourself sliding into old programs.  Depending on the frequency you are vibrating at you will be looking at the situation and select a strategy from a different dimension or paradigm. These different paradigms are not necessarily inherently better.  You have to consciously choose based on the situation and the players.
One difference I notice in the higher paradigms is the increasing ease with which the outcome occurs.

* When you realize you have fear-based idea, a limiting belief or you recognize that you have an unreasonable thought the easiest thing to do is just choose a new high vibeing thought.  That's a fairly high paradigm strategy

* If you really want to hold onto the limiting thought, remember; you create your reality.  As you believe, so it will be.  Depending on the frequency you are vibrating at  Shift the way you look at situations. Check in to see if you’re reacting to a reflection of your own feelings. You may be attracting that experience so you have an opportunity to consider how you are behaving in a similar way in your own life. This perspective is not as high consciousness as the first.

* A key part of changing your perception is to look beyond the evidence you observe. It is important to realize that evidence does not assure  you that you have the whole story, and you also need to realize that you may not even understand the significance of what is occurring.   This reminds me of a story Wayne Dyer told of being irritated by a man who was letting his child run wild on a subway train.  When he got off he apologized saying they were just coming from the hospital where his wife had died and he didn't know what to do.  HUGE perceptual shift.
When you encounter someone who pushes your buttons, Don’t Take it Personally!!  Challenge yourself to think of possible reasons for their actions. What if she has a sick child, what if he just got downsized?  Misunderstandings often occur because people unconsciously jump to the conclusion that another’s actions are deliberately done to annoy them.   Look realistically at that assumption; it often takes on the flavour of being ridiculous.

So be sure and ask yourself if you are absolutely sure that what you think is true,  is.  

*  Here's another higher paradigm hint.  Shift from the habit of jumping to negative conclusions, to being aware of and focusing on the possibilities.  This strategy helps you raise your vibrational rate so you can attract the matching resonant solution .

* If you want to be in even higher frequency don't think of the situations in your life as problems needing solutions Just put on your highest vibeing perspecticles, and see it from its divine best.

Do we experience feelings of pure love and bliss in pure consciousness?

This weekend we celebrate Valentine’s Day.... the day when many people reflect on love in their lives. 
Do you think of intimate relationship love?  If you are not in relationship do you desire it from a place of lack?   Or do you feel you are complete and invite a relationship to experience a delightful new perspective.   

Perhaps as a practitioner of divine living,  you consider it from a state of awareness of the beauty, wonder and miraculousness of all life you encounter.

As I was dipsy-doodling in the beyond this week, inviting what wanted to be explored during my weekly guided energyZing, I began to wonder if one experiences love when actually in pure consciousness.


 

Now you may find the next section of my divine reflections too esoteric.  What difference does it make whether you feel love when you are in pure conscious awareness?  For me, I like to hang out in places where I feel bliss, joy, peace and serenity…. Just look at the slideshow above to see where I resonate. 

And I love to research and play with ideas, wonder about what’s more, and explore the beyond (even wondering what’s beyond consciousness, (but that is beyond the scope of the divine you.  If this catches your fancy, then check out Beyond the Infinite Doorway )

So if you want to get my valentines gift to you of a guided audio to enhance divine consciousness and pure consciousness, or just read the tips for experiencing love, scroll thru this next part.

 

  States of Consciousness

 The Upanishads,  describe a  seven fold state of consciousness.  This includes the basic levels of consciousness experienced by all humans, as well as advanced consciousness.

“1) Physical consciousness, 2) Vital consciousness, 3) Mental consciousness, 4) Supra-intellectual consciousness, 5) Consciousness proper to the universal Beatitude or Blissful consciousness, 6) Consciousness proper to the infinite divine self-awareness, and 7) Consciousness proper to the state of pure divine existence. ” wikapedia  The latter is also known as pure consciousness.  



Advanced Consciousness

The framework of advanced consciousness I resonate with has 4 levels.  When I consider them, I do not consider one as better than another.  You can choose to be in whichever is most appropriate for the activity or contemplation you wish to pursue. The names given to these states vary somewhat, so I will call them by the names that Deepak Chopra uses for these states. 

 The first state you can experience is soul consciousness; being the aware observer. 


The second is cosmic consciousness; where you are in a physical, local and non-local, energetic, quantum state simultaneously. 

The next state is divine consciousness, where you probably hang out a great deal of the time. This is where you experience the 3d sensory world as well as having a subtle awareness of life's nuances, a connection to everything on earth, in the cosmos and the All That IS, and feelings of awe, beauty, gratitude and love. I would say that Divine Consciousness is the state many people experience when they are going into or coming out of pure consciousness.
   You may wish to experience that by listening to my weekly guided visualizations Beyond the Infinite Doorway.

If you want to know more, let me know. I will write about these states of consciousness in more detail in upcoming blogs.



Pure Consciousness
When we consider the light of pure consciousness, there is nothingness
Peter Russell describes it as “the faculty of consciousness without any content.”
  
The Isha Upanishad, an ancient Indian text, says of this fourth state:

“It is not outer awareness,
It is not inner awareness,
Nor is it a suspension of awareness.
It is not knowing
It is not unknowing,
Nor is it knowingness itself.
It can neither be seen nor understood,
It cannot be given boundaries.
It is ineffable and beyond thought.
It is indefinable.
It is known only through becoming it.

Similar descriptions can be found in almost every culture of the world. Here, using remarkably similar terms, is the fifth-century Christian mystic Dionysius:

It is not soul, or mind…
It is not order or greatness or littleness…
It is not immovable nor in motion nor at rest…
Nor does it belong to the category of non-existence,
or to that of existence…
Nor can any affirmation or negation apply to it. “
 
Peter Russell  chapter 6 the light of consciousness



Another definition of pure consciousness is,   “in the Vedic tradition and Ayurveda, the ground of being that manifests as the totality of creation.”  medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/pure+consciousness     This to me describes the nothingness of the void where creation comes from. 

Do you feel anything during pure conscious states?

So lets get back to  my original pondering.  Can you feel anything there?  Is unconditional love of the Allness an experience of pure consciousness?   If you are all and nothing in pure consciousness, perhaps you could choose to experience all.  I hear in my inner knowing that in pure consciousness the benefit is just resting in the nothingness. And that is enticing. I believe I have occasionally experienced a pure conscious state.  If so, I feel rejuvenated as I come out of beingness.    One researcher described having peace and serenity when in pure conscious state.  As I mentioned, perhaps the bliss and joy and unconditional love come when transitioning from divine to pure consciousness.

Can You personally achieve a Pure Conscious state ?

Many people believe you have to practice for a long time to reach pure consciousness.  Others say we enter it briefly everyday when we go between waking and sleeping or transition from one state of consciousness to another.  I believe in this new era, we can achieve altered states very quickly easily and effortlessly.  It depends on your beliefs. 

If you have read my earlier blogs you will have learned techniques for breathing, relaxing, connecting with nature and the All That IS.  You know a couple of ways to let go of monkey mind. You are a multidimensional being.  As a divine master you live in highest frequency or if you occasionally slip out, you can shift into a blissful state easily.

 From this state of Divine Consciousness, read the descriptions above.

I’ve included a valentines gift for you, a guided audio, with a transcript of the instructions. 


There will be fairly long periods of silence when we go into pure consciousness (I was so deep in, that It took a bit to get my voice to work again J )

There was a glitch with the sound volume around 12min.

If u don’t hear anything after I invite you to return to divine consciousness and feel unconditional love for all that is, try turning up the volume or click onto the second recording to finish the guided visualization



Set intention to shift into nothingness. 


Be curious. Playful.    Detach from outcomes. 

Some people find if they are experiencing something for the first time if they ask to connect with my essence they can pop into the place we are headed, so feel free.  Then relax release and experience.

Be your most expanded field, bigger than the universe, bigger than the Omniverse.  Notice the sensations, the music of the spheres, the light. The love.

Pop into the quantum field and catch a wave of creation.  Be the wave of limitless potential.

 Feel the joy and wonder of being. Feel full of grace.  Relax, breath. 

Easily and effortlessly,
Let go of all your connections feel yourself going deeper than you have ever gone before and Be Nothing


 

If you shift into another state of consciousness, breathe release return to pure consciousness if you wish. When you are ready return to Divine Consciousness.  Once again feel unconditional love for all that is,

You may wish to reflect on your experience and remain in this sacred place.

Or you may wish to Focus that love energy on something or someone you wish to gift.  It may be all 7 billion humans, and our holy mother earth initially.  Then Feel that love for yourself, overwhelming you embedding itself into every cell of your being and in your cell memory.  It fills you and is accessible to you to share in every moment.  Now choose someone you wish to connect with and gift them with that unconditional love.  Bathe them in it, or shower it on them, or imagine love like sparkling light of fireworks falling all around them, surrounding them and filling them with Divine love and light. 

Be aware of your cosmic consciousness, being in physical, and non-locality, and notice your body, enjoy the physical revitalization, the energy flowing thru you,

 Did you notice a difference in the energy or your ability to gift love after you had been in pure consciousness?  I invite you to share your experience with me on the Divine U facebook page.

Tips for Experiencing Love

You may have received lots of emails, or facebook posts lately offering you tips on enhancing love, so I will be brief and offer 3 I haven’t seen . 

1. Self-love is the essential foundations for experiencing love in your life.  Here’s are a couple of great habits to practice daily. 

  a) Look into a mirror that has good lighting.  Turn your head slightly and see if you can catch a reflection of light in your eye. – Your Divine Spark.  From your Divine highest frequency, tell yourself how much you love yourself. Thank your body, mind and spirit for providing health and well being.

b) Imagine you are a precious pet, and stroke your arms your shoulders, your belly, your hair….. maybe even behind your ears.  You may even talk to yourself as you would a pet.  I tell my cat how beautiful she is, how grateful I am she is in my life, how precious our time together is.  So, even if it feels a little odd, I now include this in my self-love exercises.  I giggle sometimes, and laughter further increases my vibrations. 

2. Give yourself a gift of a rose quartz crystal. These stones have energy that will help you vibrate and achieve self love, receive love and give love.  You will achieve a matching resonant frequency by connecting with their sentient energy and asking them to enhance your (You can purchase one for as little as $2.00  If you don’t have a local metaphysical shop, check out souvenir or toy stores,  They often have a variety of rocks.  You can also check out kiosks that sell inexpensive jewellery at malls.)

3.  Contemplate how you can shift your relationships into more unconditional acceptance and love. Conscious Awareness is the first step to achieving any goal

Its always fun to try different ways of getting into a high vibrational state. 

Since we just reached the midpoint between the winter solstice and March equinox this week, here's one you may want to try that celebrates the increasing daylight in the northern hemisphere.   If you're in the Southern Hemisphere, you can increase your light as the nights get longer.

Use your senses to locate the source of highest frequency, universal light of Creation. 
Imagine that light is attached to a device that has a knob which can be twisted to increase or decrease the intensity of the light. The light represents your higher vibration energy. 

Visualize that you are twisting the knob to increase the brightness and intensity of the light.
Now Imagine this powerful  light energy moving into each and every cell.  
Be aware of how it feels in the different parts of your body. 
You can turn it up in any areas that aren’t fully illuminated.   
Feel yourself move into higher and higher vibration; as the lights
becomes brilliant and radiates out to encompass the world. 
Now focus on maintaining that high vibration light. 
You’ll find you can increase your frequency in a few seconds,
once you have tried it a few times.

Here’s an advanced practice: When you are able to maintain the energy in a quiet state, try getting up and walking around and keep the inner light  turned up.  Practice this, increasing your exposure to people and activities a little at a time. Soon you will be living in a consistently sustained higher conscious frequency.  Celebrate!
