Diet of the Mind

Posted on by

The human mind is hungry for drama
for it makes it feel alive
thus it is constantly
stirring the embers of drama
to feel worthy of itself.

What if you introduce the mind
to a more enticing diet:
a diet of Love
without the need to protect
a diet of Peace
in sync with your Soul
a diet of Harmony
that spurs new creative flow
a diet of Joy
alive with laughter.

Then the mind would feel
tenderly nurtured
deliciously satiated
enthralled with the beauty of life
honored as royalty

And . . .
the incessant hunger for drama
would cease to exist.

Soul’s Innate Knowing

Posted on by

As I awaken on the morn of a new moon
I ask myself….
What is the basis of this new cycle of life?

Instead of feeling excited
about something new
I am coming up blank

My mind
is saddened by this
for it wants a purpose
it wants a new mission in life

Whereas my Soul says. . .
Ah, we are finally free of our persona
no longer needing to define
or present ourself in any particular way

We can finally live
with the natural flow of life
allowing our energy to draw everything to us

We can simply rest in the Knowing that
everything is working out
in ways our mind can not begin to fathom

We can rest in peace
the peace that passeth understanding
the peace that will eventually infiltrate every heart

And thus “we” initiate a new cycle
with the marriage of human and soul

Co-creating a new foundation
from which all things
effortlessly come into being
with our innate Knowing
steering this human vessel
this vessel of the Divine Human.

Living by Divine Law

Posted on by

It takes a very strong and courageous person
to walk away from the old way of being
away from what others believe in
away from what you’ve been taught
away from what you’ve believed in all your life
away from the habitual way of living
into the unknown. . .

It takes a strong and courageous person
to lead the way
aligned with your Inner Being
trusting your Divine Wisdom
that’s aligned with your GodSelf
rather than the subservient human
who has been blindly following the pack.

You are living via Divine Law
rather than the laws of man, which are transient
You are in alignment with All-That-Is
This is your Knowing…. This is your passion.
Take a deep breath and renew yourself
with the Breath of Source, the strength of Source.
Breathe deeply… and forge ahead.

Creating Anew

Posted on by

In ancient times,
knowing the planet was descending
as part of our soul’s development
the Wise Ones anchored many a ritual
passed down through generations
mother to daughter
father to son
often taken underground
safeguarded from those
who coveted power

At long last,
we have begun awakening
remembering our ancient wisdom
drawing together in circles
openly reenacting the rituals
in sacred honor of our earth
in sacred honor of our selves
honoring all we’ve gone through
as the Christ Consciousness
being reborn in each of us

And now BeLoveds,
as our consciousness expands
we are shifting into a new reality
where the old rituals
no longer hold precedence
they have done their work
holding us true to who we are
as we evolve beyond our origins
to a new way of being

We offer gratitude
of acknowledgment
as we put these rituals to rest
allowing these energies to return
to the ancient ones
from which it originated
blessing them for bringing
us to this pinnacle of emergence
to remember who we are
as creators of a new reality.

Let the Story Go

Posted on by

Stories of old
stories untold
stories repeated by the mind
holding you captive
to things of the past things
things that are no longer real.

Glean the wisdom
from stories of the past
and let the story go
to create a foundation
from which to grow
and continuing to expand.

This moment
this is what’s real
experienced in the here and now
allow it to pass through
enjoying its thrill
knowing there’s so much more.

The Erupting Heart

Posted on by

Everything is erupting!
Words are flying
energies are exploding
our feelings
our personal lives
and the world stage.

And yet, everything that’s erupting
is all about Love.

At the core of it all
it is the Heart that’s erupting
no longer willing to be ignored
no longer willing to be walled in
no longer willing to be contained.

For some this feels like
long-awaited freedom
for others
it’s like pulling off the scab
of a festering wound.

Healing requires love and compassion

Can you be
the love and compassion
the world needs right now
as all that is not Love
is imploding upon itself

Can you be
the love and compassion
the world needs right now
until it results in free-flowing
unadulterated Love for all.

Celebrate with Wild Abandon

Posted on by

Change is always disruptive
transition is even more so
but at the root of every change
at the root of every transition
is a reason to celebrate.

For our expanding Consciousness
only knows benevolence
therefore every change
every transition
is a reason to celebrate.

Celebrate with wild abandon!
Celebrate that which you are abandoning
no matter how disruptive it may be
simultaneously
Celebrate that which you are welcoming anew.

Freedom to BE all of Who I AM

Posted on by

When we peel away
all the layers
of our personification
we reach the core
of Who we are
What we are.

At my core
I AM
love
peace
happiness
joy
well-being
this is Who I AM
this is What I AM.

It is not freedom
from external bindings
that we seek
it is our own
inner freedom
to BE
Who I AM
What I AM.

Rooted in Grace

Posted on by

 

I have moved into a new abode
a place of peace and contentment
a place of grace and beauty
a place created by my Soul.

I have moved into a new abode
beyond the linear mind
a place free of confusion
a place where everything flows.

I have moved into a new abode
but my mind continues to grapple
for it has no roots in this new place
this place of Divine Knowing.

Hush sweet child, I whisper
I know you fear your death
but this my BeLoved one
this is your Sacred rebirth.

We have moved into a new abode
where we can live carefree
playing to our hearts content
as creators of a boundless life.

So sing with me a joyous new song
a song that celebrates life
a song of expanded consciousness
a song that’s rooted in Grace.

The Grace of new beginnings
the Grace of a peaceful past
the Grace of future creations
the Grace of All That Is.

You Hold the Power

Posted on by

If it stirs your fear then leave it
and turn your attention to Love
before you become ensnared
in the illusion of fear.

Fear holds no power
it can only feed upon itself
and when no longer fed
it folds in upon itself and dies.

You are the one
that holds all the power
by proliferating Love
and expanding Consciousness.

You hold the power in your heart
by sharing your Love
with all of humanity
and birthing a reality rooted in Love.
