Express Yourself

In every moment that you follow your heart and express yourself freely, you are opening the door for others to do the same.  You are showing them a window into their own soul and stirring within them that part that says 'Hey, I want to be me!'.  You are, through your own expression of freedom, of authenticity, an inspiration. And how many you will affect through the simple acts of being and expressing YOU, you may never know, but in the essence of authenticity, you are honoring the spirit of truth in all.

So, the next time you doubt, or turn away from honoring yourself- think of your child's watchful eyes and the little one that's learning either to be something he's not or shine in full-glory truth.  Think of your neighbor, who really needed 'permission' to bust out of the box and be full-color.  Think of that certain someone that fate brings your way through perfect synchronicity who really needed that message more than anything that day- the one that said 'You are so beautiful exactly as you are, and the more you shine, the more radiant you are for all to see'.  And know that through your expression ( through letting your own self shine) you are activating, liberating, and penetrating the wall of illusion within others, and ( in your own small way) just by being you, you are setting them free.

Sometimes we hesitate most in doing things for ourselves, We self-sabotage.  We can tend to be our own worst enemies,  But most feel called to do for another, are more generous of themselves in this way.  And so, I offer this as a bit of insight that provides somewhat of a detour to get where you're going- to get to the other side of yourself and to go around that part of you that stands in your way.  Because, more often, (at this stage anyway) we'll do more for another than we will for ourselves. 

Ultimately, it's all about self-love, about choosing from a highest place in order to honor your self, in order to walk with God, and that absolutely ripples out.  But for now, if it inspires you more to know how powerfully you can ( and do ) affect others through your doing/being and you are motivated to shine in the name of leading the way, in the name of all of the ways that you will liberate the world around you each time you do, then bring this forward as a truth, and allow it to set your own soul free as you go.

So, just by doing this one simple thing today, just by being you in your own unique and special way, you could inspire a thousand soul smiles! Think of the ripple effect and how each one you affect affects 20 more.  What if that's what life is really about?!


Be the FLOW!

Beyond

Give yourself permission to lift the tariff.
Release the imposed taxes you put upon yourself that say you 'can't'.
Let go of that part that says you can't be, say, do whatever you need to.
Remove the black and white, the man-made rules that implement the hands-tied phenomenon.
Remember, on a deep enough level that you live it, that there is enough. Enough time, energy, abundance.  Enough love.  Enough of everything to go around, and that you have total access to it all, always, and right now.
You have, right within your fingertips, right within your heart, everything you need.
Release the need to care about what anyone thinks.
Release the limitations, the judgments, the guidelines, the overlays, the dramas to play into, and just be.
Just for today.  Just for right now. And then a little more as you're ready.
You hold the key.
You are the ever-lasting.
And everything and everyone is all perfectly aligned for you to breath into the most infinite possibilities of the greatest You you could ever imagine.
Paint your masterpiece, the masterpiece of you, as you go.  One stroke at a time. And watch the beauty unfold.
There is no need to make anything different. But as you begin to see things differently, so too will shift your world, and your experience.
Until this life that you are living begins to form into greatness, into vastness.
And everything you thought was important, like coloring within the lines and playing it safe, become silly to you in a way that you would not have imagined just a short time before.
Within, there are no borders or boundaries.
Within becomes without, becomes your whole world, your whole experience, as you begin to shake away what no longer serves and step beyond the veil.
Beyond is where you long to be. It is the place that dreams are made of and peace resides.
Taste the bliss of residence in the eternal by setting yourself free from what confines you, from what distracts you from your hearts desire and deters you from the kiss of joy.
One step now will bring you closer. 
And in the next moment, you can drink in another sip, washing away the need for the illusion. Clearing from your eyes the mist of a long-ago story that is ready to be transformed into a fairytale from fable.
And you become, just a little more aligned, just a little more content, just a little more your Self.
And this is a gift, that you have gifted you...in the moment that you choose another way.



Be love.

New Operating Instructions: Human Being/Doing


There was a time when making your life happen by ‘doing’ was the way.  After a time of realizing that really wasn’t working, we moved to a time of Being, of allowing, of ‘letting go’ and ‘letting God’ - a time of surrender.  In this time, we learned about stillness, about flow, about co-creating with a higher source, about synchronicity, and about faith in the unknown.

The tides are changing once again though, and that fire that is rising within you is being called to action,  Though we’ve worked really hard at feeling our way into Being and allowing and waiting for our lives to unfold as the Universe sees fit, the time for waiting is over.

Now we are being folded into a new mix of being/doing that facilitates our will and strengthens (up-levels, really) our partnership with God.

If you are beginning to feel frustration, impatience, or downright rage at the injustice of Life’s offerings culminating within you, you are right on track.  These are the forces of change.  These are the elements of discontent that are working to dislodge you from a passive stance and propel you into a role of action.  The time for Being as we know it is over (for now anyway).  The time for doing is on.  You are being asked to take your life by the reigns and ‘make’ something happen.  Do you feel that?  Many feel that momentum building along with the coinciding hands-tied element of not wanting to override the ‘Being-ness’ that they’ve been taught about and coached in.  Many have learned to cultivate that synergy of flow and have resolved, at long last, to take their hands off the wheel while letting the Universe direct them.  So it may feel somewhat counter-intuitive to step back into the captains helm at this point.  It may feel as if you are taking a step backward and falling into old ways of needing to be in control, or as if your allegiance to a surrendered way of being is faltering.  But if you really connect with the energies within and become in-tune with the energies all around (cosmic and collective) you will See that taking action is exactly what you are being called to do right now.

All itinerary is subject to last minute change.

Ok, so as your ‘but, but, buting’, understand that the way of the Universe, of nature, IS change.  It is ebb and flow; contraction and expansion.  So by honoring the urge to ‘do’, to ‘create, ‘make happen’ in your life at the moment, you are honoring, not objecting to, the flow.  By honoring your GPS which says “Move, Move, Move! I’m tired of waiting and standing still!”, you are honoring your instinct.  By trusting in your Internal Navigational System, and Knowing that it has our best interest at heart, Knowing that it is directing you , you are creating a deeper connection with your Self.  By trusting ( and here’s the other component to the equation, and the one that puts the twist on this way of Being and makes it an updated version of the old)- by trusting that Creator will then ‘match your bid’ and take care of the unknowns and the ‘out of your hands’ aspects, you are strengthening your connection with Source.

So here’s the breakdown.  You follow your instinct to change, to do, to take action. And then you, as you step into the role of authority of your life, on this new empowered level that is ‘over’ sitting back and waiting for stuff to happen ( for the moment anyway), you then delegate, or command, if you will, that Creator meet you half way and take care of the rest.

Don’t take the seeming resistance of things not lining up or falling into place as a sign that it is not TIME for things to happen or forward movement to occur.  Don’t fight your desire to take action, and tear down some walls or storm the city of your dreams.  The fire doesn’t lie.  It wants you to step up and stand tall and become an active participant in your life.  But here’s where many are getting confused.  There is the objective, the thing you want (desperately!) to happen in your life.  And then there is the obvious ‘out of your hands’ ‘nothing you can do about it’ element which sends us flailing into a stupor of confusion, frustration, and disillusionment at best, making us wonder if we are being asked to step up to and into yet another higher level of surrender.  And then again there is this almost disabling discontent, this discord, this downright rage or sorrow that screams ‘NO! I have to do SOMETHING! I can’t just remain idle.’  And to both, the answer is yes.

You are being asked to ‘do’ and ‘be’.  You are being asked to surrender and take control.  You are being asked to find balance between your will and God’s will.  And as you bring this into alignment, as you find your footing with doing your part and letting God do his, you will begin to see the bigger picture as it unfolds.  You will begin to regain the feeling of balance and flow.

Stomach issues anyone?

This coordination of wills has everything to do with your power center, located directly within your belly.  This explains the need to come into your power by doing, making happen, taking action,  But if we’ve learned anything from past mistakes along the way, the imbalance that over-compensating, over-controlling and reluctance to surrender brings is less (by far) than optimal.  And if we’ve learned from our time period of allowing and surrendering into Being, we can’t deny the ultimate power (and peace) that’s derived from letting God and letting go. But many have reached a time of feeling that they are wandering in the desert, somewhat helpless or aimless, waiting for the realm of possibilities to unfold and the Powers That Be to give it up already.

So, my friends, it is time to braid.  It is time to feel empowered by creating movement and change within our lives while alternately realizing and surrendering what we have control over and what we don’t (think Serenity Prayer).

So this may mean for you that the movement, the shift, the change you’re about to make happen at this time in order to facilitate that fire within that says ‘Do’ is seemingly menial, or tedious even.  You may not be able to make happen or magically make appear that new job, new love, new house, or whatever else it is you desire.  Many of these larger details of what it is you want may absolutely ( as you suspected, or as may be glaringly obvious) be completely out of your hands.  But the movement to get the current rolling is within your realm, and within your means.  So what does this mean?  This means that if you desire a move- to a new home or a new location- but things aren’t falling into place, then you step into the flow by becoming part of it (actively) rather than waiting on the sidelines.  You begin to make preparations.  You begin to pack, clear out, take action- on a level that you can.  Participate.  Play it out.  Be proactive- on whatever level you can in this moment.  Action is the key word.  And it may not be on the level you desire, but it will facilitate the flow and show the Universe that you really are ready; you are stepping up to the plate; you are doing your share.

Just don’t loose sight of the partnership (between you and Creator), and the trust necessary to keep that in tact.

It’s greater balance, this way of being- a 50 You/ 50 God equation; Co-creation, my friends, at its best. Give a little, get a little.  And you know that it’s right (what you’re feeling) that it’s Ok to evolve into this higher way of Being.  This is you bringing into alignment the doing and the being, the power and the surrender. In breath, out breath directs the prana, directs the flow.

Evolve.  Do.  Be. Perfect.  Now don’t forget to play, and you’re good.

As bodies, we need movement.  As beings of nature, we are elements of change, of evolution.  It’s really about being in the flow of that, of the process of life that's organic, and allowing the process to become organic for you.  If you were a bulb in spring who was ready to shoot through the ground, to sprout, you wouldn’t deny your urge to grow.  And as you began to grow, you would naturally know which way to grow- you would grow towards the Light, through the Light, and of (via) the Light.  You would have that connection with Source and a trust that that Light would guide you.  But you also wouldn’t expect the Light to do the growing for you.  You would do that part yourself.  So you see how it is totally interconnected, a very symbiotic way of Being that is natural and known.  This is what you’re reaching for- this rhythmic way of Being.

Know that, in order to support this Way, you must also allow for preparation.  You need to allow yourself to be fertilized by Life as it shapes you into who and what you need to be to be optimal for what it is you want to receive.  So it is about letting Life bring you into that balance through the life experiences that will teach, mold, and grow you.  And to that you surrender, and you trust, you allow the flow. But now is also a time to tend to your garden, to prepare your soil, to plant your seeds.  Now is time to honor the movement within you and bring it out into the world- to manifest your own right as a creator, as the creator that you truly are.  It’s time to test those waters by activating your will and making happen what you can.  And no matter what your goal or desire, there is something you can do right now, if you’ve got that fire burnin’ within you to DO, to move forward in the direction of your dreams.

If you desire new love, begin with doing something loving for you.  The more in love with you you are, the more excellent your new relationship will be, and the higher a vibrational love you’ll call in.

If you want a new job, begin by honing your skills and making an action plan to get working, so that when the Universe  ‘drops’ that job into your lap, you’re prepared.

If you want a new home, begin by clearing out the old and decluttering and polishing your life, so that when everything else falls into place, you’re ready to go. (This applies to you as a body and a soul, as well- you simplifying your thoughts and beliefs so that you can expand into a higher-vibrating, more expansive You).

Remember , these are changing times.  Your standards are higher now.  You no longer want to settle for mediocre or less than.  You want the big stuff- the Greatness. So by lining up with it, by becoming a vibrational match, you create fruition.  Make sure your soil is as optimal as possible for the fruit you wish to bare.

There is a balance to being and doing.  And as you begin to acclimate to this new way, you’ll begin to strengthen your trust in you and in Source and the co-creation of your dreams-come-true begins to flow in a more natural way; You sprouting in time to your drive to become and you growing towards the Light.  Symbiosis and flow.

Follow your heart through this, rather than old standards, and you’ll find your Way Home.

Become fully realized as you sink into your knowing and expand outward through creation, manifestation, and maximizing the flow.

Begin!

To forward movement and co-creation on a higher level!
