5 Ways to Activate New Opportunities

Notice every moment is an opportunity to redefine the direction of our lives.  Its common to reach a hiatus, a point in life where the prospect of change appeals in some or many different life areas.  What to do about it?

1. Pay attention to discomfort

2. Review different life areas & priorities

3. Brainwstorm ways to empower yourself 

4. Be aware of your relationship to inner and outer worlds

5. Meditate on your vision of new opportunities

Notice effortlessness is a sign of how much we have evolved into the cosmic flow. Effortlessness is what it is. The journey to surrender is mind-blowing. At some point, the entire universe conspires to allow dreams to be. Resources, teachers, insights, simply come to us, without need to struggle.

Like the lotus opening, its petals blooming to their fullest in their delicate colours. The whole world can vibrate to the rhythm of that single flower. Blooming happens without us. Simple, gentle, sacred expression in multiple dimensions.

At some stage virtually everyone has experienced this natural flow. Until one learns to let go consistently, merge with the flow, miracles seem to happen. Yet, miracles can happen at will. To set the intention, create the energetic need and resources arise without any effort. Regardless of the dream or how big the vision is, it just happens smoothly, fluently, and silently, without making any noise.

Many ask, 'when can instant manifestation be my reality?' When our entire existence is flowing as the living of ‘Who we are’ and ‘How we are meant to live’. Our intentions, thoughts, and intellect, our heart, energy in motion, focus, existence, and co-existence, all align. True Nature arises. Purpose we imagine for us and purpose of Nature, are in harmony. Obstacles vanish. As we become sufficiently skilled at lucid dreaming (being aware of dreaming), we will eventually find our lucidity active while we are awake, eyes wide open, in full clarity.

In essence, energy of all existence is dancing. Infinity dances from the heart. That limitless joy, source of inspiration and serene presence, enriches everything. It is also far-reaching, boundless, and infinite. Here, in this state, 'miracles' happen. Whether noticed or not, miracles happen every single moment. All great works arise here. This is where masterful co-creations emerge.

Get to root of dis-ease

Notice we must each get to the root of our dis-ease (discomfort) if we truly want freedom to be our reality. How deeply can we heal our bodies or the bodies of loved ones when it comes to healing? How can energies outside the body be harnessed to heal? The energy that made the body can heal the body.

The what always comes before the how. The feeling or sense of direction presents itself in conscious awareness before the path that allows it to happen, before even clarity of exactly what is blossomin through us or in our midst. We get cues from body signs and signals, the environment. Opportunities show up. We may act in the moment before mind attempts to talk us out of it.

Trusting our gut is just as important as listening and allowing ourselves to tune into subtle senses. It helps to make deliberate choices, about relationships and situations we engage in. We can empower ourselves by deciding to stay engaged for a period, create boundaries, or an exit plan rather than allow others to create our limits, decide for us, take the upper hand. The ball is always in our court.

Consider dreams are the brain’s way of processing information that’s left over from each day. They are rich with valuable data – experiences, memories, learnings. Theya re valuable tools to work with if we allow this. Paying attention to dreams can provide information that we may not have access to when awake. Before falling asleep, we can turn our thoughts to any unresolved issues or situation. Focus energy on exploring options or resolutions as we fall asleep. This is an exercise in both self-directedness and surrender

Allow rose of clarity to blossom

Notice fear-based conditioning teaches us to cling to suffering perhaps because in some way, we think it makes life worthwhile. The mind thinks joy must be earned. Irony is, the more miseable we are, the more we cling to what does not serve us, the harder it sems to let go. In truth, one who is truly happy does not cling to life,or form unhealthy attachments. Deeper reflection brings new insight.

People who are suffering maintain their version of "hope." They always hope something different or better, will occur tomorrow or down the track. Those who live in adversity create an image of heaven or paradise that helps them endure discomfort. Yet, this distant idea of relief is like a carrot on a stick guiding the rabbit in us forward. Its a mind game to keep us frozen where we are. This tricky mind would like our attention to be hijacked away from the present moment. Still, that future never comes as it does not exist as mind would have us believe.

One big lesson here is only as we begin to feel hopeless about our perception of life or situation, does real hope and falling into surrender become possible. Only in a moment of real crisis or tragedy does transformation happen. So, when we think we have no real or acceptable options, maybe feel stuck in a hard place, this is when the heart cracks open and light finally reveals itself unexpectedly. The rose of clarity within blossoms in this perfect moment and not a moment before.

Breathe the way to clarity

Notice many spiritual traditions echo we are multidimensional humans. We exist simultaneously on several planes and in several bodies which range from the familliar. physical body, to the astral body of dreams, to higher energy bodies that access realms and states of consciousness beyond our wildest dreams. Questioning our assumptions and being open to alternative possibilities increases our flexibility of consciousness, that is, changes how we receive, decode, and transmit energy. Each of our bodies has its own set of abilities and limitations. When ready, opportunities present that guide us to develop innate abilities. Imagine intentionally inviting your consciousness to leave your body to expand experiences, and breathing your way to clarity. Many options for expansion exist.
