Spiritual awakening on a dense planet
I believe that millions of humans are undergoing a spiritual awakening. It only makes sense when we look at where we are on the timeline of human evolution. I see awakening in direct relation to evolution. So what is spiritual awakening?
Well, let’s begin by looking at what the word “spiritual” means. When we speak about something being spiritual, we are implying that there is an impact on the heart, Spirit, or soul level. Spirit is a part of who we are that is less fabricated than our everyday self. This means that there aren’t a lot of stories and beliefs about who the Spirit it, it is more closely aligned to one’s truer nature, which is pure and free from thought forms and conditioned beliefs. Therefore, the term spiritual awakening, has to do with “awakening” or bringing more online one’s true self, or we could say awakening the spiritual intelligence .
We live on a very dense planet, often referred to as a 3D reality. The earth’s gravitational field, in addition to the fight-flight-freeze energies stored in one’s body or fascial matrix, build this reality of density., and directly contribute to the presently expressed fear-based and rigid states of consciousness. Have you ever been in a yoga class or participated in a meditation and were told to relax and let go, but you couldn’t do so? This is due to the conditions described above.
So, how do we skillfully support an awakening of our exquisite true nature, and experience more freedom, ease, and beautiful heart connections in our lives?
COMMIT TO YOUR AWAKENING - taking the time to reflect on your desire to evolve and awaken into your divine Spirit and Soul
INCREASE YOUR CAPACITY OF INNER NOURISHMENT- daily take time to develop inner nourishment. Inner nourishment refers to the human nervous systems ability to release and relax. We can also see this as a softening and there are different ways to train your system to release
LEARN TO ENJOY INNER NOURISHMENT & SUSTAIN IT- when you find yourself being touched in a beautiful way that invites a release and softening throughout your body, mind system, invite yourself to enjoy it! To appreciate it! To fall in love with it! This is a skill that needs to be built in many, due to our conditioning of pain and suffering, but this skill will take you far in your spiritual awakening!
DEVELOP METTA OR LOVING-KINDNESS & COMPASSION TOWARDS SELF & OTHERS- explore a formal practice of loving-kindness meditation and begin to bring in moments of self-compassion into your lived experience when you find yourself reacting out of your conditioned response of fear, pain, and suffering.
BECOME A MASTER OF YOUR AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM - through the practices above, you will develop skills for working with your nervous system. The state of this system determines your state of consciousness. When we are in lower states of fight-flight-freeze, we have a harder time engaging in practices that are nourishing and conscious for oneself, so we need to remember often our desire for awakening to support our personal power in coming more fully online.
WELCOME & DEVELOP PERSONAL POWER - personal power is vital since when we are on this journey of awakening, we are venturing into our consciousness to reprogram and decondition patterns mapped within our consciousness. These patterns can be tightly held and may be hundreds, if not thousands of years old, originating in an ancestor’s life and being passed down all the way to your present moment experience. Personal power will give you the strength, confidence, and care to support transformation in a patient and compassionate way.
