We are in a worldwide period of transition. Each of us is undergoing myriad experiences of change, often leaving people at a loss as to how to find their way to whatever comes next. Here are some thoughts about that journey and how to best use the opportunities.
The in-between-times I often think are like pregnancy. Something new is being born within us, but it isn’t here yet. We don’t know exactly what it will be, but the waiting often feels uncomfortable, and we know it will change our lives forever. The overall purpose of this phase of evolution, which is called world ascension, is to awaken to the memory of our eternal true spiritual selves within our human experience. (See my book Riding the Wave of Change to learn more about that.) So, we could say that we are pregnant with ourselves!
To understand this, we can use some wonderful spiritual phrases: I have a body, but I am not my body. I have a mind, but I am not my mind. I have emotions, but I am not my emotions. I am an eternal spiritual being having a human experience!
I first heard those phrases in the early 1980s, and they have been very helpful to me. However, now it is time to not only know that but to shift identity. We are birthing a complete ego shift, which says: I am a unique and eternal spirit. I am guiding my human self to fulfill my purposes within this incarnation. This is a big shift, and it is not going to happen just because we affirm the phrases. It’s going to happen in its own way and time. However, we can speed and smooth that shift and enjoy the ride a whole lot more!
Whether this transition has you between jobs, careers or relationships and this is creating downtime, anxiety or depression. Or you are working double-time in a chosen career because of the labor shortage. Whether you are grieving the past or uncertain of your future, there is a need to build unity between the human self and the eternal spiritual self, where strength, confidence, and security can be realized.
Here are some ideas to help you:
1 – Utilize things that help you to build endorphins, breathe deeply, and relax. People often use excessive food, alcohol, or marijuana to deal with both in-between phases and stressful super busy phases. These numb and keep us in the lower vibrations, which ultimately causes depression. So, while you may do those things occasionally if you are doing them regularly, you are blocking your ascension into unity with the Higher Self. That may be why some people feel stuck and increasingly anxious.
2—The easiest way to break those depressing habits and get unstuck is to become more physically active. This generates endorphins, reboots your brain, deepens your breathing, and, after the initial period, gives you more energy.
Begin at whatever level you can and with an amount of exercise that pushes you a bit. Chair exercises are available for people who can’t walk. Add to your workout at intervals as you are ready. Whenever you find what you are doing easy, increase it some.
Meditative movements like Yoga or Tai Chi can help in so many ways.
3 – Meditation is essential. Something that shifts your focus from the physical/emotional to the spiritual. Not just thinking spiritual thoughts, reading, etc. But actual work to build unity between your true eternal spiritual self and your human ego, mind, emotions, and body.
This is my strength, and my website, www.spiritualhealers.com, has many offerings to help you build unity and awaken your true self. Eve’s 3 Most Important Things Videos in the Video Gallery and Award-Winning Weekly Word Blog are free. In my online store are many guided meditations on MP3. There are articles, books, Classes, and Healing Treatments, too.
Whatever meditation you do, it should be focused on unifying with your higher self. Many techniques lift you out of your body to find that. Mine bring your spirit into your body so you become whole and begin to co-create your life.
Prayer is an active meditation that welcomes support from a higher power into your life. Your Higher Self is one with the Oneness by whatever name you call that. So, if or when you pray, know that you are part of that Oneness. Also, there is a reason for everything. A good prayer is for understanding, unity between humans and the Higher Self, and guidance. Keep an open heart.
Even during physical exercise and mundane tasks, focus on bringing your Higher Self into your body. This will help you shift into higher vibrations, release old blocks, and ascend!
