Look at them.
Grow from them.
Do better, be better.
You are human.
It is okay.
It all starts with you, look at yourself with love, appreciate what is presented to you. Every breath, every moment of difficulty, every joy comes to you to leave you a life lesson.
Everything is fine…, everything is for the best.
Simply give thanks, let go and trust the light to spread and guide you.
With Love,
As we witness the Universal Omnipresent force in All, (our God Self or I Am presence) we connect to the Divine Power of Grace.
As we embody the Will, the Capacity to receive this gift, our finite minds open to greater possibilities, once lost in our limitless awareness. We behold our Infinite Self.
Divine Grace, the sweet surrender that transforms, and inspires humanity to live a virtuous life. Becoming the Light that remains illuminated as we continue our path.
The resurrection of our Eternal Divinity, our Christ Consciousness resides in each of us. Our perfect expression of God. as the human mind acknowledges the Divine within, he awakens his Soul.
Paramahansa Yogananda, (author of The Yoga Of Jesus: Understanding the Hidden Teachings of the Gospels) said “To commune daily with the Divine in deep meditation, to carry His love and guidance with you into all your activities, is the way that leads to permanent Peace and Happiness.”
I exhort you to separate at least 10 minutes daily to connect to the Divine Power of Grace through meditation.
First, sit down into a comfortable crossed legged position. Along your spine, and melt your shoulder blades towards your tailbone.
Second, bring your attention to your breath. Soften your face. Bring your tongue towards the roof of your mouth (behind your front teeth). Begin inhaling through your nose (keeping your mouth closed) and when you exhale, allow yourself to let go (without judgement) of any turbulence within your mind, that doesn’t allow you to be present and in harmony with this inner self connection and exploration moment.
Third, while keeping your eyes closed ask your self the following questions:
Who Am I?
If you don’t know the answer, it’s alright. Remember no judgement. You may help yourself with a journal and write down, your answers.
What do I want? Are my thoughts and actions aligned congruently?
Remember be compassionate with yourself, simply take note regards how can I become happier and live in congruency.
How can I better serve while I am living this life? What is my purpose here?
What is my source of gratitude? Keep in mind that gratitude is a magnet for miracles.
After ending this meditation exercise, release everything, close your eyes again and breathe slowly during three minutes.
When you feel ready come back to your space.
I encourage to practice this short meditation during 21 days and you will feel and see the difference as well as your perspective towards others.
Last but not least;
“He who conquers himself conquers much.” Jesus
Happy Week✨
A sign from the Universe
L iberates intention
I ntention determines outcome
G enerates coherence
N ew energy enters your life
M oves you forward
E xcellent way to attract happiness
N ourishes your Soul
T ry not to resist it and flow with it
We are Divine beings living the human experience…
Alignment is about finding the feeling inside of the things that we want and then deliberating the choice to create those feelings.
If we align our intentions from a source of gratitude, we will attract more positive things into our lives and vibrate into a higher frequency throughout releasing and elevating our Divinity.
Everything that happens in life is perfectly aligned by a divine force, once you start believing in that higher power you realize that control is an illusion.
This doesn’t mean that you don’t take any action and just sit on your couch all day long, it simply means you accept life as it is with receptivity and faith as a source to believe in yourself. It means to fully engage into your potential to evolve into a better version.
You don’t try to force things to happen. You don’t flow against the current of the river, you allow yourself to release any resistance all the way from your cells tissue and your mind.
You start living life effortlessly mindfully, in other terms with awareness of each moment because you realize that everything is connected.
There may be some things that may feel really bad right now, but in the future you realize those bad times made you a strong person. So trust the divine timing of life, nothing is a coincidence in this Universe. Keep in mind that everything is aligned and connected.
Our body generates enough electricity to fuel an IPhone in 70 hours. https://wp.me/P7G3QF-xL
Everything we do is controlled and facilitated by electrical signals running through our bodies.
Think about how would our brain communicate with a skeleton of 206 bones and more than 600 muscles if it wouldn’t be the outcome of positive or negative charges of electricity that had been produced across our membranes when atoms switch charges.
In other words energy is our main Life Force. Hence is throughout our energy that we become able to connect to this divine and universal force, which descends to us and allow us to align with it in a vortex flow. However in order to experience that we must raise our frequency and vibration.
How to raise your vibration in order to align yourself with the vortex:
1. Gratitude:
Being grateful for what you already have surfaces your vibration and opens you up to receive more.
2. Meditate:
Meditating is a great way to ground yourself and feel connected to the Universe.
3. Affirmations:
Positive affirmations are very powerful because they release you from negativity, fear, worry, and anxiety. When these affirmations are repeated over and over again, they begin to take charge of your thoughts, slowly changing your pattern of thinking and ultimately changing your life.
There are some you could such as these ones below as an example…
I am calm and peace.
I am in the vortex or the source.
I trust that I am loved and supported.
Every cell in my body vibrates with joy.
4. Connect with nature:
Go outside and connect with nature. It is a great way to ground yourself and feel connected to the Universe.
5. Self care:
Taking care of yourself is and essential way to raise your vibration. Go through physical health assessments at least once a year. Put on your face mask as long as required during this global pandemic period. Read a good book or simply do what feels good and makes you happy without jeopardizing yourself and others.
6. Visualize:
Close your eyes and see what you want to manifest. Visualize your dream life or goal . Imagine every aspect of your desire and see yourself with it.
7. Drink water:
Water helps you cleanse you from toxins and impurities that could be weighing down your vibration. Water raises your vibration from the inside out.
8. Journal:
This is a great way to clear and organize the mind. Journaling will raise your vibration by releasing worries onto the paper by freeing them from your mind.
Last but not least;
“You are only vibrations away from what you want” (Abraham Hicks)
Hey there, I have learned throughout my years of facilitation as a yoga teacher, master resilience trainer and reiki master that enlightenment is not an altered state of consciousness; it is coming out of an altered state of consciousness.
Sometimes we are faced abruptly into adversity, which is meant to test our faith within ourselves and even our connection to the Universe, Divine Source or God. It happens through many ways.
It could be undergoing physical suffering, as well as mental or even heartbreak. In summary, life is full of adversity, since the moment we are delivered out of our mother’s womb (our safest zone) in order to face this world full of difficulties.
However, if we keep ourselves attached to the past experiences that caused us any type of pain; we lose connection to ourselves, to what we want, to our life’s purpose and to our source of love and gratitude, God.
If we accept and realize that is within ourselves to break the chain of resentment, lack of forgiveness, to shelter compassion and love then we will be able to heal and evolve eventually into a better version of ourselves.
During this week of reflexion meditate and see yourself able to:
Choose understanding if you were judged.
Choose accountability in order to make anything up.
Choose acceptance if you were rejected.
Choose compassion if you were shamed.
Choose to be the person you needed when you were hurting, not the person who hurt you. Vow to be better than who broke you.
Choose to heal instead of becoming bitter so you can act from your heart, not your pain.
Forgiveness and love were the main teachings of our greatest master of resilience, Jesus. Throughout his short life, his crucifixion and resurrection he left us a great message and lesson that resonates a lot with Victor Hugo’s quote “Even the darkest night will end and the sun will rise.”
Last but not least;
It is within our will and practice of self–love to move on from the darkest night and allow our sun to rise.

“The quieter you become, the more you can hear.” -Ram Dass
What was meditation and Buddhist guru Ram Dass really implying?
The general goal of mindfulness and self-discovery is to quiet the endless parade of thoughts that march through our minds almost incessantly.
Self-discovery is extremely important when there is lack of grounding due to several events that during our lives, we have to face and react unexpectedly.
Also self-discovery provides support to develop resilience skills in order to deal with emotional trauma (when applicable) sometimes caused during childhood. Unfortunately it remains in the subconscious until another trauma or stressful routine triggers the mind and hence its resistance to deal with it.
Most of our errant thoughts are rooted in the past and future – thoughts of fear, fantasy, frustration, envy and regret.
Rarely are we completely rooted in the present moment. So when we learn how to control a phantom mind, through at least 15 minutes daily doing meditation, there will be multiple benefits that extend from the crown of our head all the way to our feet.
We connect with our breath and learn how to use it as a resource to pace the mind. People have gotten used to constantly talking, listening to television or music, or making noise in other ways. Creating noise just for the sake of noise will never let us understand the beauty of silence or appreciate the world around us.
Take 2 minutes and do nothing but listen, without talking or having any background noise, and you may be amazed at what you hear.
The sound of birds singing, insects buzzing, and all of the other noises that are going on are often overlooked because they are not clearly heard.
If you go into nature and you are silent you will find that nature can be quite noisy in a natural and appealing way.
The importance of silence is also a factor in relationships, because if you are always talking then you are not hearing what your partner is saying.
It is better to be silent and practice situational awareness, only speaking when this is necessary, so that you can truly hear what others are trying to tell you. Instead of standing in front of the person talking and instead of being present the mind is wondering somewhere else.
Last but not least;
“Meditate and let the light of the heart engulf you “ -G.C
Have you participated in a yoga class, and your teacher guides you (during the integration process) to scan yourself seated in sukhasana pose?
During my teacher’s training I could not understand this. I even felt some kind of reactivity to the subject; what I didn’t know (back then) about, was the kind of amazing inner tool for self-transformation and empowerment I had been introduced.
First ask yourself the following two questions:
Have you exercised your subtle body yet? Or your causal body?
The great Spiritual Masters throughout the ages have taught that we are not just what we see reflected in the mirror.
The enlightened teachers from all ages and cultures have taught us that we are much more than just our physical body and that our Being is composed of multiple layers or dimensions.
We posses as human beings the potential to have experiences outside of the known physical layer of reality.
Although these experiences are not always easy to prove, there is a mounting preponderance of evidence that we do in fact have an astral or energetic body, and furthermore that all humans are interconnected in a complex field of Consciousness outside the bounds of space-time.
Hence, this wouldn’t be a better explanation to the physical lightness sensation of someone extremely relaxed while in savasana (final part of a yoga class) or during a reiki therapy (which targets the overall wellness and balance of our energetic body).
According to the yoga tradition, every one of us has five bodies, each made of increasingly finer grades of energy. And if we intend to live a fully balanced, healthy life, it tells us, all our bodies need to be kept in good condition.
Yoga teaches us, that every one of us has five bodies, each made of increasingly finer grades of energy.
Exactly and indeed, energy.
The five progressively subtler bodies that compose our personality are described in a yoga classic called the Taittiriya Upanishad:
Human beings consist of a material body built from the food they eat.
Those who care for this body are nourished by the universe itself.
Also inside there is another body made of life energy. It fills the physical body and takes its shape.
Those who treat this vital force as divine experience excellent health and longevity because this energy is the source of physical life.
Within the vital force is yet another body, this one made of thought energy.
It fills the two denser bodies and has the same shape.
Those who understand and control the mental body become able to fully control their fears.
Deeper still lies another body comprised of intellect.
It permeates the three denser bodies and assumes the same form.
Those who establish their awarenes on their intellect, free themselves from unhealthy thoughts and actions, and develop the self-control necessary to achieve their goals.
Hidden inside it is yet a subtler body, composed of pure joy.
It pervades the other bodies and shares the same shape.
It is experienced as happiness, delight, and bliss.
In other words it’s a Samadhi Yoga experience.
Samadhi is blissful.
The above structure is called koshas, or “sheaths,” in Sanskrit, because each fits in the next like a sword in a scabbard.
Only the densest is made of matter as we know it; the other four are energy states invisible to the physical eye, though we can easily sense their presence inside us when we pay close attention.
Since the inner bodies are the source of our well-being during life and are the vehicles we travel in after death, India’s ancient yogis developed specific exercises to strengthen and tone each one in turn.
Your First Body is your physical.
Annamaya kosha in yoga,
maya means “made of”
anna means “food” or “physical matter
Your Second Body is the organizing field that holds your material body together.
This is the life energy that governs your biological processes, from breathing to digestion to the circulation of your blood.
It’s called chi in Chinese medicine and prana in yoga.
Acupuncture and homeopathy don’t directly affect your physical body; they work on the vital force that activates and sustains it.
Orthodox physicians in the West recognized the importance of the vital force up till the 19th century, but with the development of sulfa drugs and antibiotics, their attention shifted from the energy states underlying human biology to focus exclusively on the physical body itself.
The second, and energy body is called the prana-maya kosha in yoga.
When it ceases to function your physical body can no longer operate.
Your heart and lungs stop working and your cells begin to disintegrate.
In Western culture we strongly identify with our material body, yet without prana supporting and directing it, it can’t survive more than a few minutes.
Yoga devotes an entire class of practices called pranayama to replenishing the vitality of the pranamaya kosha.
Breathing Exercises like:
Diaphragmatic
Complete yogic breath Ujjayi
Alternate nostril breathing
Are specifically designed to enhance the proper functioning of your second sheath.
In addition, getting plenty of fresh air and sunlight is essential for maintaining the health of the vital force.
Yoga texts explain that the sun is the ultimate source of prana.
Furthermore, is also explained that fresh whole foods are a major source of prana.
Your Third Body
Manomaya kosha which is body made of thought processes.
Hence your mental body, which responsible for our sensory and motor activities and our day-to-day awareness when we’re functioning “on automatic.
It processes input from our five senses and responds reflexively.
When we move through life passively, reacting to our environment rather than actively shaping it, our awareness is focused here.
Many people, and most animals, routinely operate at this level.
In the West we associate our routine mental state with the brain, but according to yoga the entire nervous system (including the brain) merely mediates the activity of the manomaya kosha, expressing the commands of this higher energy state through the physical body.
Visualize a patient in a coma, and you will be able to have a clear sense of what the mental body.
Their second sheath is still operating so their heart continues to pump and their lungs expand and contract.
But the person has no awareness of the external world and no ability to take action because the activity of the mental body has shut down.
The pranamaya kohsa operates from the moment of our first breath to our last.
Manomaya kosha shuts down temporarily on a daily basis, regenerating itself during the state of deep sleep.
The health of the manomaya kosha is tremendously enhanced through the practice of mantra meditation.
This soothes and balances this inner body, and helps release “knots” of energy tied up in mental complexes and obsessive thoughts.
Yogis who spend a great deal of time in meditation often have very little need for sleep, in part because their mental vehicles are functioning optimally, like a car that’s just had a tune-up.
The mental body “feeds” on the sense impressions we offer it.
If we supply our third sheath with a continual stream of violent TV shows and video games, for example, it begins to crave increasingly aggressive forms of stimulation, and may become more agitated and less sensitive to the suffering of others.
If we “stuff” it with too much work or too much play we may experience a form of mental “indigestion,” leaving us feeling exhausted. A harmonious environment, interesting professional challenges, and fun and supportive relationships offer an ideal diet for the mind.
A daily session of pratyahara, or sensory withdrawal, leading into meditation provides an excellent inner tune-up.
The practice of blindfolded yoga also provides a great inner tune-up to manomaya kosha.
Your Fourth Body
Subtler still is the vijnanamaya kosha (vijnana means “the power of judgment or discernment”).
It’s often translated as “intellect,” but the real meaning is broader, encompassing all the functions of the higher mind, including conscience and will.
This is the part during the integration of the class when I guide the student to evolve in wisdom throughout their higher state of consciousness by setting their class intention. Which ultimately is the reason that brings them to their yoga mat at least twice or three times a week, embracing their journey for a higher self.
It may be easier to understand the distinction between the third sheath or mental body and the fourth sheath or intellectual body by taking a look at those in whom the vijnanamaya kosha is underdeveloped.
One such type is someone who doesn’t seem to be in control of her (his) life, who is constantly reacting to circumstances rather than making a decision and responding proactively.
This kind of person has a hard time making up her or his mind, thinking genuinely or being creative. Hence there is very little willpower and is continually the victim of her or his own poor judgment.
Another example of a deficient fourth sheath is someone without strong personal ethics.
He may attend religious services and speak piously about moral values, but when the opportunity arises to benefit himself at the expense of others, he doesn’t hesitate to act.
His ability to discern between right and wrong is weak; conscience is a platitude rather than a living experience for him.
An activated fourth sheath is what distinguishes human beings from animals.
Only humans have the ability to direct their own lives, free from the promptings of instinct, and to make moral choices.
The sages considered the development of a healthy vijnanamaya kosha so important that they placed the exercises for it at the very beginning of the yoga system.
These are the yamas and niyamas, commitments every yoga student is asked to make:
Not to
• harm
• lie
• steal
• overindulge or desire more than you actually need; instead you are asked to be content, pure, self-disciplined, studious, and devoted.
Jnana yoga also works with this kosha.
This is the path of the intellect in which you are advised to study spiritual truths, contemplate them deeply, and finally incorporate them into the very core of your personality.
On this path your spiritual understanding becomes the “food” with which you nourish your intellect.
As your meditation practice deepens over the months and years, your ability to connect with inner guidance is enhanced.
You begin to experience the events in your life, even the painful ones, in a calm and objective manner.
Your yogic lifestyle, contemplation, and meditation lead to clarity of judgment, greater intuitive insight, and increased willpower as your vijnanamaya kosha grows stronger and more balanced.
Your Fifth Body
In the vast majority of humans, the fifth sheath is totally underdeveloped.
This is the anandamaya kosha, the subtlemost body which is experienced as ananda (spiritual bliss).
Generally only saints, sages, and genuine mystics have done the inner work necessary to make ananda a living part of their daily experience, and most people are hardly even aware that this level of consciousness exists within themselves.
The anandamaya kosha is extremely important in yoga because it’s the final and thinnest veil standing between our ordinary awareness and our higher Self.
Many individuals who’ve had near-death experiences (NDE) have reported experiencing a brilliant white light radiating all-embracing wisdom and unconditional love. A peaceful feeling from that white light that could make the way back to a grounding state hard to embrace. It’s the utmost connection to the Divine.
This is the experience of the anandamaya kosha.
Saints and mystics purify their minds so that they can have this experience throughout life, not just for a fleeting moment at death.
Another example from the tantric tradition, spirit is often symbolized as Shiva, the transcendent Lord who is ever immersed in divine consciousness.
Matter/energy is called Shakti, the Supreme Goddess whose divine body is this entire universe.
It’s said that they love each other with unspeakable intensity.
Their supreme love is experienced in the anandamaya kosha, where spirit and matter passionately embrace.
We can awaken our bliss sheath through three practices:
1. Seva, selfless service.
This opens our heart to our innate unity with other beings.
2. Bhakti yoga, devotion to God.
This opens our heart to our unity with the all-pervading Divine Being.
3. Samadhi, intensely focused meditation, which opens our heart to our own divine being.
I was certified as a yoga teacher from Samadhi Yoga Institute (Samadhi’s Method) which provides a flexible and creative yoga teaching somatic format.
As result the magical transformation that takes place into a human being when opening the heart to his or her divine being is an experience that stimulates a lot of inner resilience, and as previously explained it is a structured subtle work as result of body scanning our Five Layers Of Being.
Always remember that you are a multidimensional creature. Your awareness manifests on many different planes.
Yoga introduces you to yourself and trains you to live fully and gracefully at every level of your being.
From the hatha postures that strengthen and tone your physical body to the breathing exercises that balance and vitalize your life force, from the meditation practice that quiets and clears your mind to the self-study and selfless love that open up an inner world of knowledge and unity, yoga is a holistic system that develops and integrates every part of your personality.
By getting to know your five bodies and the inner Self (whose awareness illumines them all), you can experience the health and fulfillment of an enlightened life.
If you still find hard to resonate with the above description of the koshas, see yourself as an onion with only five layers, having each layer a different and important ingredient that will improve your cooking with a much better taste (your higher self).
Experiencing Your Five Sheaths
The five sheaths are not theoretical constructs. They are real parts of your being that you can actually experience.
The following eight-step exercise will help you get a fuller sense of these inner dimensions of your personality.
Sit comfortably with your head, neck, and trunk in a straight line.
Sit upright softening your face.
You’ll feel both alert and relaxed.
Close your eyes, withdrawing your awareness from the sights and sounds around you.
Bring your full attention to your physical body.
Be aware of your head and shoulders, chest and waist, back and abdomen, arms and legs.
This is your annamaya kosha.
Bring your full attention to the point between your nostrils and feel yourself breathe.
Gradually your breath will flow more slowly, smoothly, and quietly.
Be aware of the energy pulsing through your body. It’s making your heart beat, your lungs expand and contract, the blood course through your veins, your stomach gurgle.
The force orchestrating this movement—not your physical body itself—is your prana-maya kosha.
Allow your awareness into your brain. Pay attention to the part of your awareness that’s regulating your sensory input and motor output.
This is the part of you that notices your nose is itching and orders your hand to scratch it.
It notes that you’re uncomfortable sitting in one position for so long and wants you to move your legs.
It generates the reflexive mental chatter that continually fires through your mind.
This is your manomaya kosha.
Lift your awareness higher inside your skull.
Sense the part of your awareness that consciously made the decision to participate in this exercise and right now is commanding you to sit still and complete it.
It recognizes the value of expanding your self-awareness and compels you to get up early in the morning to do your yoga postures and meditation, even though lazing in bed might be more pleasant.
This is your vijnanamaya kosha.
Center your awareness in your heart. Relax deeply; keep breathing smoothly and evenly.
Now, taking as much time as you need, allow yourself to settle into a state of complete tranquility.
Buried deep in that inner peace is a sense of purest happiness.
This is not an emotional euphoria, though as you leave this state it may pour out of you as a sense of great joy and gratitude.
It is a space of perfect contentment, perfect attunement, and abiding stillness.
There is no sense of lack, or fear, or desire.
This is your anandamaya kosha.
Now simply be aware of your own awareness. The pure consciousness that is having this experience lies beyond this experience.
It is your true inner Self, your immortal being.
Rest in your own being for as long as you can hold your attention there.
Allow your attention to your breath.
Breathe slowly, smoothly, and evenly. Open your eyes.
Take a moment to relax and absorb this experience before you get up.
From Death to Birth—and Beyond
In many yoga texts you’ll find the five sheaths grouped into three.
The physical body and vital force are called the sthula sharira, the “gross body.”
The mental body and intellect are called the sukshma sharira, the “subtle” or “astral body.”
The bliss sheath is called the karana sharira, the “causal body.”
These are recognized in many different spiritual traditions.
We’re all spiritual beings with a spiritual support system on the Other Side that oversees and helps guide our lives from the moment we’re born to the moment we leave our physical bodies and return to Spirit.
Not knowing this fact is a severe handicap, as the Universe is designed to care for and nurture all its creatures and help make our life’s journey easier and more successful.
When we learn how to connect with our angelic guides, our lives naturally fall into a pattern of ease and flow during which we grow our souls, fulfill our life’s purpose, and make our time on Earth endlessly entertaining.

And old Cherokee told his grandson,
“My son there is a battle between two wolves inside us all. One is Evil. It is anger, jealousy, greed, resentment, inferiority, lies and ego. The other is Good. It is joy, peace, love, hope, humility, kindness, empathy and truth.”
The boy thought about it and asked, “Grandfather, which wolf wins?
The old man quietly replied…
“THE ONE YOU FEED”
Hence the warrior is not someone who fights, for no one has the right to take another life. The warrior within (the Good from the above tale), is the one who sacrifices or even surrenders (him/herself) for the good of others.
In order to take care of the elderly, the defenseless, those who cannot provide for themselves, and above all, the children, the future of humanity.”
Last but not least;
Life will keep bringing you the same test, over and over, again until you pass it!

Hello there beautiful Souls, have you visualized your physical body thru an imaginary lens?
Well gently close your eyes, and bring your attention to your breath, bring your tongue towards the roof of your mouth behind the front teeth, begin to inhale thru your nose and when you exhale, begin to activate relaxation within. Now bring your attention to your forehead. Visualize your physical vehicle.
See your physical body as a product of this material dimension. It is created on earth using elements like carbon, hydrogen and calcium. It is vulnerable, it has limitations and a finite lifespan.
Your higher self has chosen to inhabit it to have experiences that the Spirit world does not offer. It is not the real you. What you see in the mirror is only a vehicle. The real you is perfect, limitless and eternal. It is connected to everyone and everything you see. The ability to contact your Guides and their knowledge is omnipresent, but you must do your part to access their wisdom.
How do we access their wisdom? Becoming receptive to this guidance which is your birthright, we are delivered to this life guarded by a celestial energetic team of Guides that includes a guardian angel, a departed loved one (some cases two), Archangel Michael is assigned to protect humanity, so we have this energy available to us when we need to connect to it and some people might have 2 archangels assigned for guidance and protection based on their Soul’s contract or life’s purpose.
The higher our calling the larger the team will be. Meditation, sitting in silence, and asking to receive advice during the dream state are all ways to establish contact with your higher self and Guides. Also thru meditation you can find your life’s purpose and Highest Potential.
What is Highest Potential?
Before going to this explanation I want to address something to make you think.
God sends power in humble packages; on the back of fool little children always, there’s no way to conceal it.
Because they look harmless.
Think about humbleness, and it’s congruency with power…at least for a minute.
Our highest potential is manifested when we act every moment (we recognize a choice is present), towards the best potential option (available) within the circumstances as an outcome.
Embrace this process, have no fear to sitting in silence enjoy that darkness as is the only way you will be able to see the light. For assistance in how to meditate go to this website menu and click on meditation benefits.
Last but not least;
Don’t be discouraged by the earthy distractions placed between you and your Guides. Practice developing this sacred relationship. You will find that life becomes much easier when you have daily communication with your Guides.

Hey there Beautiful Souls,
Have you ever been able to give without expectations?
Allow me share this with you. When you spread light and love to others, it should be done without any conditions attached to the act.
And why is that?
Because attachment is the root of suffering. We are all made of the same energy, so the good that you give out is essentially given to yourself. In other terms when you help others, you help yourself.
So my point here is that the joy of giving will always be your reward. Remember that energy is constantly flowing, and by lovingly giving unconditionally you will be able to increase the flow and bring it into a higher vibration of being which in turn assists everyone.
Giving is part of our Soul, hence when you are not able to give without conditions, your ego will develop issues of scarcity and the need to feel acknowledged.
When you give selflessly from the heart, you increase the energies of abundance and gratitude throughout your sphere of influence.
Life is not a competition…
We are here to help each other instead of allowing ourselves get lost into an EGO trip, that will trigger inner scarcity leaving behind struggles ultimately delaying your journey towards a higher self.
Focus in ways that you can give without expectations allow yourself to pay forward all the good things (that you already have) without consciously thinking about it and you will be able to see that the best rewards reaped are from acts that you didn’t even realized you had sown.
