Forgiveness and Freedom

Many times in your life you have experienced some pain or hurt by friends or loved ones.  It is difficult to forgive someone who has hurt you especially if it is a family member or significant other.  Forgiveness is important to your life and your well being.

You must understand that in forgiving someone else you free yourself.  Forgiveness allows the resentment that is stored within you to dissolve.  You must fully feel and acknowledge all that blocks you.  Don't forgive someone because you think it is the right thing to do.  Don't forgive someone just from words, but truly and honestly feel it deep down from the heart.  When you forgive it should be real, honest and ready to let it go.  Once you truly forgive, you will set yourself free and let go of the past and put it behind you.

When you hold anger in your mind, your unconscious does not know for whom that feeling is meant, it only knows that it is a container for resentment.  To forgive is to let go and release your own mind from being caught in the cycle of going over and over the hurt.  You are not forgiving for the good of the other person.  You are forgiving for the good of yourself so that you can be free and move on.  Forgiveness is a gift, a state of grace that benefits the giver as much as or more than the receiver.  If you are willing to heal fully, you will need to forgive fully.

Forgiveness and letting go are steps on your road back to health and happiness.  Without it you will never be free from your past.  You will be held hostage to your past unless you are willing to release and grow beyond them.  Only you can ultimately free yourself.  No one can do this for you but you.

Increase Your Positive Energy

Energy as defined by Dave Watson:  Energy is a property or characteristic (or trait or aspect?) of matter that makes things happen, or, in the case of stored or potential energy, has the "potential" to make things happen.
 
There are three essential things in human beings:

1. The soul or the spirit, the intelligent principle where the thoughts, will and moral sense are found.
2. The body, the material envelope, weighty and rough. The body enables the spirit relate with the material world.
3. The perispirit, the light fluidic envelope, which is the intermediary bound between the spirit and the body.

“Spirits may be defined as the intelligent beings of the creation. They constitute the population of the universe, in contradistinction to the forms of the material world.”  Each one of us is a Spirit, our material bodies exist as extensions of our true spirit selves. Just like a diver uses a wet suit to spend long periods under water.

As spiritual beings in a human body, we can feel the energy within the universe.  Because we are spirits created by the universe, we have free will to do good or do bad.  The spiritual realm has many aspects and it takes a deep understanding of what our purpose is in this life.  We make our own decisions and have many choices.

We as human beings are like vacuum cleaners and suck up all the energy that lingers or floats in the air.  We experience many forms of bad energy.  How do you distinguish bad energy?  You can assess the situation first you should see a doctor for any possible medical issues.  After you get a clean bill of health, then you can proceed to assess your energy.  Sometimes you will feel the back of you neck (the nape area) very heavy as though you are carrying a ton of bricks.  Other forms of bad energy are headaches or aches in your body or a particular part of your body.

You can increase your energy to a positive level.  First and foremost, you have to be a willing participant.  Begin with a daily regimen of meditation or prayer or both.  It is imperative that you practice this on a daily basis as this will make your energy or aura very strong and you will be protected as well.  Begin to change your thought process.  If you are always thinking or saying negative things or look at the negative side of situations, STOP.  Start to change your thought on a more positive level, begin to change the language so that it will always have a positive atonement.

It is imperative to be mindful of the words that you use.  What you put out to the universe will manifest eventually believe it or not.  Practicing yoga, meditation, praying or any other thing that will get you to be still and become in tune with your inner spirit.  Remember, as a spirit we also wear a coat (the material or outer shell).  We tend to live in the material world more than we do in the spiritual world.  By living in the spiritual realm, we become more in tune with not only our inner true selves, our core, our spiritual being. You can and will become more connected and more in tune.  You will begin to feel better and the shift in your energy level. 

    
Keeping in mind that we are spiritual beings, must not we connect to our spiritual source in some form, shape or fashion?  It is so important that you connect with your inner self which will connect with a greater source of powerful energy. Energy that is pure, positive and amazing.  Your life will transform, you will begin to think and feel differently.  The ultimate goal is to raise your awareness and your consciousness to a higher level, a higher plane. 

There are alot of tools that you can use to help absorb the negative energy that we absorb on a daily basis.  I find that using crystals is a fabulous way of cleansing off those negative vibes that weigh you down.  Simply purchase a clear crystal quartz and wash it off well followed by soaking it in a clear glass of water with salt and place it in the window sill for about a week and make sure the sun rays shine on it during the day and the moon at night.  After the first week take it outand say a prayer as you pass it all over your body as though you were taking a bath.  As the crystal passes all over your body, it will absorb all of the negative energy.  After you are done place it back in the cup.  Make sure you clean the water and place fresh water in the cup.

Using an egg is another fabulous way of cleansing yourself from negative energy.  Simply take an egg and run it under water, followed by rinsing it with a little holy water and some cigar smoke.  Say a prayer, a prayer as you pass the egg all over your body to absorb all of the negative energy, especially your head as you want to think clearly and want clarity of mind.

There are so many things we can use, nature offers us alot of things right under our noses to utilize.  As you practice you meditations or yoga in addition with your cleansing routine, you will feel lighter and feel different. 

In closing, we all live in a world of good and bad.  It is a spiritual warfare and we must learn how to stay positive, think positive, and speak positive at all times.  Everything we do or do not do has an affect on us.  So start incresing your positive energy and you will have many different experiences on a whole new level that you never even thought of.  Feel free to share your experiences.

Rejuvenation

It is that time of the year where we enjoy the Christmas holidays and all that comes along with it.  Taking time out to reflect what the year was like for you, you can either be grateful or disappointed.  Reflecting back on all of your accomplishments or failures, whatever they might have been for you, you should always take time out for yourself to truly assess what is or was important to you.

This is a great time to begin to be happy not only because another year is gone by, but for a new year that is about to start.  Most people would just remember the bad times or the negative experiences that they have gone through.  As the year ends, you should start preparing yourself for the new year.  You do not want to carry any heavy loads or negative energy into the new year.  That is not how you should start the year off.  Instead, thank the universe for all the accomplishments you have made throughout the year.  Take a good hard look at yourself and begin to see the goodness and the blessings that you did have and not what you don't have.

Bringing in the new year can be very exciting as you do not know what awaits for you.  Just remember that you have the power to manifest anything that you want in life. You can create a better future not just physically doing the work but mentally and spiritually.  This should be the time you get the kinks out so to speak.

Lets begin the year with a positive attitude and practice kindness, love, and gratitude.  Be honest with yourself and look at what attributes you would like to change about yourself.  Remember, everything starts and ends with you.  If anything goes wrong in your life, you really need to take a good hard look at what part you have played in it.

Begin to let go of all the anger, bitterness, and any other negative emotions you may be holding on to.  If you must, write it down, make a list or even write a letter.  Is there anyone you need to forgive, writing a letter to express your feelings is the best thing you can do for yourself and for your soul.  After you have written down the things you want to let go of or letters you have written, read them and then put them in an envelope as though you are going to mail them out and then put it away don't open them.  When you are ready take them out but without opening and before the year ends and you can either shred it, cut it up into pieces or burn them.  As you do this, you are letting go of all those feelings and emotions that have been weighing you down.

Let's get ready for the new year and begin to write new goals, new ideas and new things that you want accomplish within the next year.  Staying positive and practicing kindness, humility, and love will beging to change your life.  Be grateful for all the things that you do have family, friends, a job, a degree, a house all that you have in your life right now.  Do not complain, remember that their is always someone else that is so much worse off than you. 

Learn to live in love and harmony.  Begin a meditation regimen on a daily basis, this will rejuvenate your soul.  You will begin to live in peace and harmony.  Become a magnet and attract goodness and begin to manifest all of your dreams.  You are a spiritual soul weather you believe that or not.  Begin to connect to the source of all things.  Practice meditation, yoga, praying, etc.  By doing all these things you begin to attract positive energy, positive vibrations and you will begin to attract all that is good.  People will begin to feel the positive energy you are giving off but more importantly, you will begin to feel different, you will feel better and lighter, free from all the negative energy weighing you down.

The more you practice these things and live a life of love and in harmony with the universe you will accomplish so much without you even trying that hard.  Try it and see for yourself.  Begin the year being happy, grateful and thankful to yourself and the universe!

Positive Thinking

We live in a world where we are constantly on the run, constantly thinking about the things that we need to do and take care of. We tend to get frustrated and our minds just seem to take over with all kinds of thoughts.

We all have the power of taking control over our minds and our thoughts. It is not an easy task to most people and for others it comes naturally. It is imperative to remain positive at all times no matter what the situation, no matter what we are going through. Yes, it is easier said than done. It takes practice.

Words have a lot of power whether they are negative or positive. Having positive thoughts in every situation no matter what is happening in your life or around you have a major effect. The words we speak are vitally important. Words can set us free, or place us in bondage. Our conversation can literally bring life or death. We must learn how to talk in a new way. A new way is necessary, because the old way, filled with negative words, produced sorrow and unhappiness.(Clowers, 1995)  

There have been some who have said if you speak something long enough, it will happen. There is truth to that statement, but let's clarify it. What happens is that when we speak, whether negative or positive, we give one the right to bring it to pass. Positive words that are conceived in your heart, then formed by the tongue, and spoken out of your own mouth, become a spiritual force, releasing the ability of your positivity within you. (Clowers, 1995)

Ask and allow the universe to cleanse your spirit and your soul. Be conscience of the words you speak. Speak from a place of love instead of hatred. Think before you speak and replace negative words with positive and uplifting words.

Meditation is a great way to get connected and become in touch with the universe. Allowing the universe to work through you and for you. Ask the universe to help you be cognizant of the words you speak and to fill your heart with love. What you feel in your heart will transmit to your thoughts and out of your mouth.

Let’s look at an example, if you lose your job, don't complain. Speak positive words such as, "The universe will provide. The universe has something better for me. The universe directs my path." Don't give into feelings and speak negatively. Negative thinking will make you believe and say things like, "I don't know what we're going to do," or "We'll probably lose the house, the car, the furniture and everything we have." Don't repeat these things even though you may feel like it!

In times of tests and trials, we can learn to speak only positive words, words which are in agreement with the universe. Our words, your words have the power to produce life or death. Evil or negative words affect us both inwardly and outwardly. If we take the love within us and selfishly turn it inward, it will destroy. That is why it is so important to always speak good things.

The choice to either be fulfilled or destroyed by our words is given to each person. We can make the choice to be fulfilled by good words spoken over others and ourselves.(Clowers, 1995)
