Marinate in stillness

Notice what happens as you choose not to give an image or association to a sense of being. Sometimes it requires training to quiet the mind. As you simply feel 'I am,' you attune to an intuitive, subjective awareness.  It is unrelated to thoughts. You notice a beautiful, spacious, serene force that is always with you.  This is not a thing to pursue or seek.  A natural feeling finds you.  You do not have to travel anywhere. Be with it. Allow the external to continue.  Thoughts may arise. Witness everything.  See what happens. What arises? You need nothing to be in touch with inner being. As you detach from what you are not, you feel lighter and lighter.

Delve into your dreams

The authentic you engages in dreams without resistance or limitation.  In your waking state, you engage in experiences differently.  Why? You set the tone and decide on your feelings everywhere you perceive yourself to be.

In dreamscapes, you do not make excuses to pinch yourself off from unlimited being. What you manifest in dream states relates directly to what inner being knows. Everything unfolds based on how the authentic you vibrates. You fly, walk through walls, time-travel, bask in wellness, and do things waking mind tells you are impossible. During dreams, you realign with higher consciousness and allow source energy to express itself freely through you. You are completely non-resistant. You are on a joyful ride wherever you go.  You summon from high vibration and clarity alone.

In waking states, what you recall about dreams (you always have) is based on the vibration or mood you awaken into, and this relates to the vibration or mood you left when you went to sleep. The waking you interprets based on degrees of love or fear, resistance and allowing. How you manifest people and situations in waking life relates to your beliefs and emotional vibrations. Waking experience is highly shaped by a range of lower vibrations including; powerlessness, anger, frustration, doubt, and others, until you awaken to close the gap between beliefs and knowing. What you focus on activates mirror vibrations in your life. When you allow how people respond energetically to affect your own vibration, you choose to pinch yourself off from the unlimited being known to the real you.

Exploring dreams, training and untraining the mind is a very empowering process. When, in waking life, you do not try to grasp what you cannot control, you shift attention away from what is unfolding outside, and you no longer choose to explore feelings other than unconditional love, nothing bothers you and you remember and experience who you are more fully.

Kiss the kneecap

When was the last time you allowed yourself to do something spontaneous and off the wall? Remind yourself how it feels to do something because it feels good.  Make a list of good feeling activities if this resonates with you and gets you on track.  Choose to lick the flavour of your favorite ice cream cone. Shoot that water pistol at an unassuming target. Go skydiving or bungee jumping if you feel inclined. Share a tale of listening to the impulse within to do what feels right. Go ahead, love yourself. Kiss the kneecap.

You are more

You are more than any physical perception or situation.  You do not have to try to be more positive, to try to feel better, to try to change what seems to be your current state.  Personality and ego are not you.  They are conditioned patterns, grounded in illusions of time that are irrelevant. 

Notice whether you hear a voice telling you that you are anything less than unlimited, successful, confident and expanding into more.  Be aware of the mechanism at work within the mind without allowing it to control you.  At your centre, the authentic you feels another perspective.  Be that.

Move beyond the story

Every person has a story.  Some people have more than one.  You may share a particular story that reveals different opinions.  Notice the universal lessons that speak to you through every experience.  Notice where you feel attached to certain ideas or resistant to change.  What prevents you from allowing the mind to relax and feeling inner being? 

Consider what you reach for. You might be someone who is consciously willing to expand.  As you move from intellectual understanding to knowing, you realize comparisons lose all meaning.  Recognize when you require no explanation, no confirmation or approval, identity is no longer what separates you from other beings.  Move from the need to articulate your story. As you align with the real you, you shift priorities. To feel the world as soul does, is to be with people rather than in competition.  Take self and perception of other out.   Resonate with the compassion you are.
