Sunday - Unedited
Value: Peace
To cultivate an inner strength that takes me through rough waters and keeps me firmly grounded through heady times. Constancy and tranquility. Freedom from all that "wanting" and knowing every moment that the universe unfolds exactly as it should.
Reaffirm that the direction of my desires is right
Accept that I do not know best. Each day practice non-resistance and acceptance.
Be a source of complete peace and security to others.
Cultivate a daily meditation practice.
Value: Transcendance
To take a higher path. To avoid getting snared by bankrupt cultural values. Care nothing for what other people think. Distance myself from Madison Avenue.
Value: Self-Actualization
To understand and articulate the gifts within me.
To spend my time doing what I value most.
To not fear my own power or destiny.
To embrace my deeper self.
To cultivate self-awareness and presence
To fulfill my dreams and desires.
To radiate lightness.
Finding Consciousness
We have connected to the core energies of who we really are. As we align with these natural energy currents we open to a life flowing with peace, joy, and fulfillment. By tapping in, one-by-one, we have learned how to directly access our natural state of security, happiness, strength, passion, creativity, and wisdom. These qualities are always present—what you are experiencing this week is the power of your authentic self.
Today we explore our true self as light. Light is around us and within us—it is our guide on the path toward self-realization. Light is what triggers us to wake every morning, allowing us to see . . . dissipating the darkness and shadows. As we open to the light within, we connect to the divine light that illuminates our soul, awakening us to our real Self, and the light that connects all things. We find that we are one light connected to all light, universal connection, and consciousness. As this energy is awakened, there is no more searching or striving. Experiencing yourself as infinite consciousness is the state of enlightenment.
Our essential light is the flow of pure consciousness where we experience a sense of oneness with the whole universe. We are an essential collaborator in creating our universe. We are an essential participant in the divine order.
See yourself as an expression of pure light. You are a living expression of energy and a source of light in this world. This is a natural state. No struggle is needed to reach it. Tapping into this flow aligns you. We have identified our centered and practiced grounding, sourcing the origins of happiness, true love. The next highest energy is the divine flow of consciousness. It may sound abstract and out of reach - but it is not. It is our natural state. We have all felt blissful, moments of joy, transcendence, oneness. We need to embrace the wisdom that has guided us to this moment. Our true essence unfolds to allow us to reach our infinite potential.
Connect with things that inspire me and be lifted outside myself.
Activating Consciousness
Know that with each moment you spend in stillness you are connecting to your deepest self, opening to your flow, and awakening to a life abundant with beauty, love, and joy.
Today’s meditation is dedicated to aligning with our natural and divine consciousness by activating the energy of the seventh chakra. We learn that enlightenment is not out of reach. By cultivating self-awareness and presence during everyday moments, we experience true wakefulness—we are fully alive in the moment. To experience this awakening, it’s not necessary to radically restructure your life. These moments of presence are available in every breath we take . . . they are there in the gap between every thought we have.
When we are truly conscious, we may experience moments when our pure self shines through and suddenly life flows smoothly, sweetly, and peacefully. Our complete spiritual awakening consists of these moments aggregating and expanding into periods of time, and then into longer stretches of time, until awareness becomes a continuum of “now” consciousness, 24 hours a day. Today’s lesson on enlightenment shows us that we don’t need to struggle to get there. It is enough to simply be aware and be present. Nature takes care of the details.
By raising awareness and opening powerful energy practices, we awaken the profound power of pure consciousness and awareness. Trust that our being is connected to all that is - clarity, centeredness. Each day we will continue to expand this wonder - the glory of simply being.
Living as your true self is enlightenment. When you love truly being alive, you have the sense of light filling you up. Your life is meant to be harmonious and free. Being here is enough. All you need or want is part of your own being as you allow yourself to expand day by day. The state of being has no struggle. Being is the field of all possibilities. When you activate it, all sorts of doors open. You view everything from an unshakeable center. Each day you spend brings new joy.
My life energy radiates the light of Being.
Expressing Consciousness
Today we are expressing consciousness. As we open, awaken, activate, and radiate from all our energy centers, this energy radiates beyond us. We are the source and recipient of the gifts of the universe. This is the light of fulfillment, trust, and enlightenment.
Each day, we need to step into living our vision. The crown chakra encourages us to be the source of life and light. The light of the soul, of God, of pure awareness. All matter is star dust (or Big Bang dust). You are a child of light from these stars, literally. You depend on the light of our star for life. Spiritual awakening is natural. The process is similar to awakening in the morning and opening your eyes to the light. This is opening to the source of light, from the highest levels of creation - and yet initimate expressing your personal vision, hopes, and dreams which must be filled. Dreams are meant to be activated through the seven chakras - fulfilling each level. This is the highest. There is a light than shines beyond us all. This is the light that shines within us.
To keep the flow of this special shakti today, offer yourself a simple reminder of the light you share with others - smile with your heart and let your true light shine through your eyes. A few words offered with kindness too. Say silently “I am enough.” Living as the source of light is profound and simple. Radiate the light of your being. Your true self is closer than your breath.
Today’s lesson is about sharing our expanded consciousness with the world. Our seventh chakra is our divine light. It is where we take in that universal light of consciousness, and it is also where we radiate that same light to all creation. Our meditation will help spread the light of our inner awakening to every being in the universe, gently calling them to awaken as well.
Meditation overcomes obstacles to the true self.
