What is awakening?
You've probably heard that we are divine spiritual beings having a human experience โ a spark of the actual creative energy that creates worlds.
We already are Divine, but somewhere along our journey, that Divine Spark gets muddied up and hard for us to find, believe, and feel. Why is that?
As we grow up and live our lives, we create meaning about ourselves, others, and the world in response to happenings, which then creates filters through which we see and experience our reality.
Language is the first filter. Mama. Apple. Dog. We label things and attribute meaning to them through language as we grow and have experiences with these things.
Mama = warm, food, comfort.
Apple = juicy, sweet, pleasure.
Dog = soft, friend, fun (or scary, big, unpredictable, as is often the case).
We create meaning with every interaction, and each meaning builds upon the last.
Mom says Iโm annoying becomes โIโm unlovable.โ
The meanings we create create our life experience. This happens automatically, according to the stories weโve created about how life works. Consider the stories weโve been telling โ weโve been telling them for the entirety of our lives! This is why we can no longer see the story.
Itโs like learning to walk. In the beginning, we had to struggle to walk. We had to think about it, balance, use trial and error, try and try again! After a while though, walking became automatic. We totally take knowing how to walk for granted.
Itโs the same with our stories. Theyโve become automatic โways of life,โ and we automatically behave according to these stories.
Iโm unlovable โ I have to go above and beyond to get love โ Itโll never happen for me.
Remember, this happens under the surface. You may not actually hear the thoughts โIโm unlovable,โ but if you keep pushing love away, this may be an unconscious thought/program.
A spiritual awakening is when we shed these unhelpful ways of being, thoughts, and beliefs. It is quite literally a removal of all that does not serve us, returning us to that Divine Being we were initially born as โ worthy of ALL GOOD THINGS.
As a Divine Spiritual Being having a human experience, awakening can happen in a variety of ways. Sometimes it happens through an experience like a near-death experience or a drastic life event. During this time, people have a unique opportunity to peer beneath the veil of reality and have a firsthand experience of the bigger picture of who we really are. There are many stories of people experiencing their expansion beyond the body and then returning to the body to live out the rest of their lives with this knowledge in place.
Some people catch a glimpse of this awakening, expansion, and connection to all-that-is through a psychedelic journey or through breathwork.
This can create a lasting memory.
Another way to experience an awakening is to undergo a process of self-discovery and self-inquiry into what programs weโve put into place in our lives. We can shine the light on the self-imposed limitations weโve picked up along our lifeโs journey, which in itself begins to remove their hold over us. This process of conscious awakening is achieved by removing the filters through which we see life.
The result is LIBERATION. Itโs PEACE. Itโs LOVE.
Itโs knowing that you belong. That there is nothing wrong with you โ and there never was.
Itโs saying goodbye to unhealthy relationships. Itโs no longer putting yourself last. Itโs lasting happiness that carries you through lifeโs challenges with grace and poise. Itโs the feeling of connection that youโve longed for. Awakening is knowing all is well in the universe and being able to rest in that knowing.
If you are yearning for a conscious awakening, letโs talk.
