Rise and Shine...

             Wake up, Wake up, Time to Rise and Shine...
This familiar expression is a reminder to Be exactly this!

Control...?

  We need the mechanism of what we refer to as "control" that comes from the brain organ and body workings in order to carry out simple and complex mechanical tasks such driving, riding a bike, using appliances, operating machinery etc..

  Emotional "control" is an idea from thought, made into a concept, given boundaries (in control, under control and out of control ) projected out as a behavior or situational measurement, perceived as a way to judge ourselves or others.

   The organs of the body such as the heart does all its work on its own without us ever needing to "control" it, as does all the organs. The brain too is an organ that allows thought to happen along with a gazillion other tasks, why would you think you could "control" the brain organ? Why would you think you can?

Storage Units..

     In the past years one can see storage units springing up everywhere. There are internal, temperature controlled storage units and outside garage like storage units. Within us we have storage units, some temperature  controlled, some not and some with missing keys to the locks. A helpful exercise is to imagine storage units (of any kind) within and imagine you opening them all up effortlessly (even the ones locked with a missing key), do not look inside any of the storage units just open them up, smile and lightly walk away. You can do this exercise by sitting quietly or as you go about your day. Be sure to imagine yourself being fully being present to each unit opening up effortlessly and smiling as you lightly walk away.

After a few times of doing this exercise you will feel energetically lighter and brighter!

Freedom...

   Every instant, moment you are free to choose who you want to be. If you choose to be a body your choice will follow suit and you will see, identify and perceive a world of finite separate forms. If you choose to be a mind (thoughts, sensations and feelings) your choice will follow suit and you will perceive and identify with a world through mind. If you choose to be infinite Awareness (infinite Consciousness) your choice will follow suit and you will only know beauty and love in all experiences. Beauty in all forms regardless of appearance and love in all feelings regardless of circumstances. In every instant, moment, nano second you are free to choose.

Looking...

    There is no teaching that reveals the truth of who you are, what can be taught is an understanding of what you are not. Look honestly at what you are not and the light of who you are will come pouring in!

Self-Realize...

    A direct, experienced discovery of who you truly are is often referred to as Self-Realization, Awakening, Awareness, Enlightenment, etc. It is not a realization of the personal I knowing the truth.  In the direct "knowing" there is no personal self. This discovery is just the beginning. Who you are is there all the time as you are infinite, so let breath relax the body/mind and open to your natural Self! We Self- Realize all the time...we just don't recognize our true nature... trust that you will!
