Conscious Evolution

Done with Individual Development? Evolving Together is the Answer.

February 23, 2016 by Channel Your Higher Self

Does the idea of another self-help book, manifestation program or newest guru leave you cold?

Have you stopped journaling, writing about your feelings, or meditating on your own as much?

Lately this has been my story and I’ve also heard this from friends and clients. Actually, I think it is a GOOD sign! I think we have tipped the “100th monkey” and are entering our third wave of empowerment as humanity and YOU, my friend, are on the leading edge of that wave.

I heard Steve Rother with Espavo.org talk about 3 Waves of Empowerment several years ago and I’ve summarized it this way.

1st Wave – Our focus in early humanity was on meeting our essential needs of safety, food and security. We learned how to gather in groups and focus on the good of the whole.

2nd Wave – As primal needs were met, we began to know ourselves as individuals and our focus shifted on satisfying the needs for love and relationship, as well as vocational/educational success and achievement. At the highest vibration, we learned how to shine individually and step into authentic power.

3rd Wave – Where we are moving to is an ability to harmonize what we learned from the first two waves, how to simultaneously collaborate with others with a focus on what is best for the whole, without diminishing or diluting our own unique truth and gifts. This is a “triality” state of being, rather than “duality.”

What I took from this is that WE CAN NOT MOVE INTO THE THIRD WAVE ALONE! In order for the 3rd wave of empowerment to truly come into being, we MUST be working together with groupcocreateearth
others, all of us giving our unique gifts in service to the whole.

That’s why it no longer excites us to work on “personal” development, doing the individually focused work. Our own development, really, our own evolution, must occur in collaboration with others who are also evolving and learning this new skill of “triality.” As we evolve in this new way, we normalize synergy, collaboration, respectful interactions, and holistic empowerment as the model for the new world, bringing it into the NOW world.

You need community to evolve your capacities for living in triality, and I need your help to build the community. Won’t you help create the magic of sharing your strengths as we create together the skills for living eyes-wide-open as the physical embodiment of our Essence, our Divine Selves?

In The Spiritual Explorer’s Path we focus, as a group, on what it means to live in “triality.”   Together we practice skills over 10 consciousness sharing/expanding tele-classes beginning Tuesday, March 1. You will also receive the e-course intensive materials, downloadable meditations and a private Facebook group.

Supplicate & Surrender, Can I? Can You?

July 22, 2014 by Channel Your Higher Self

Twice each month I have the most incredible opportunity to connect deeply, spiritually, and heart-to-heart with a small group of conscious evolutionaries that I met through my training with Barbara Marx Hubbard. Last week we each contributed around the felt vision of an evolved humanity, a “global supra-human organism in which no one is left out, everyone has a role to play, and everyone’s interests are aligned with each other’s interests and with the planet.” This is not just an idealistic utopian fantasy, but is the potential culmination of billions of years of evolutionary progression. It is the “structure” for which our planet, which is in chaos, is looking for as a coherent structural order that draws humanity towards a higher order. Evolutionaries see this structure as a benevolent “strange attractor” that lifts the chaos into its new order.

groupcocreateearthIn our group, we referred to this structure as a “cooperative” organism and likened it to the body, an organism of trillions upon trillions of individual cells. As one member of our group commented:

“an organism is a structure in which the interests of every member of the group are completely aligned with the group’s interests. There are no debates about minimum wage between the spleen and the quadriceps; no lobbying for a thousand times the “minimum wage” by the brain, while other organs or cells in the body are dying of starvation. All organs are fully supportive of each other and every cell has a role to play. The lungs don’t try to convince the kidneys that they should be more “lung-like.”

The very next morning in meditation I immediately began receiving a very specific message:

Suffer, Supplicate, Surrender

Yikes!! What is this that is bombarding me?

Push back NOW, resist, resist!

Even as I felt my body tightening up and resisting this message, I focused on breathing and opening up to at least “hear” what was streaming to me, mostly at a rate much faster than I was able to take in.

The word, “supplicate” held the strongest energy for me, one that was definitely NOT comfortable. This word meant groveling, looking outside of myself for answers, and begging for mercy, none of which fits my idea of my relationship to the Divine. It was very hard for my “mind” not to get in the way of this download, to throw up barricades and shut down the flow.

Breath, center, ground, know that you are Divine and protected, listen. I heard:

“We move forward as a cooperative organism [whether that be our own body, relationships, or humanity] by releasing our need and desire for recognition, approval, individuality and uniqueness. We all have a talent to be of service and if each is in their service, all are recognized as an important part of the whole. To live from this cooperative state is to end suffering as no one would need for something that would not automatically be a part of the cooperative whole. We must supplicate ourselves to release our separated states and surrender individuality for the benefit of the whole.”

Resistance big time!

Really? I can’t be seen as unique? My beliefs have been to see each of us as a facet of the whole diamond, shining our unique perspective of the whole. What if this belief is a way for my separated self (my Ego that so wants to glory in its individuality) to stay in control?

It was at this time I was shown several areas of my physical body that aren’t 100%.

“Just like your right leg is resisting it’s service to the whole and wants separate attention, even with the expense of pain and suffering. Suffering is preferable as a unique understanding of the separated self to the seemingly conglomerate [anonymity] of the whole.”

Deep breath.

But, supplicate? I must beg to be released?

Once again I was shown an experience in my life to create understanding.

hummingbird“You’ve experienced the ecstasy of a supplicated state before.” And then I was flooded with the memory of an experience I had sitting in meditation on a mountain in New Mexico. During that meditation I opened my eyes to see a hummingbird hovering right in front of my face and then I was suffused with the energy of LOVE, not as an emotion, but as a BEING state. It was ONE consciousness, it was God, it was ALL THAT IS, it was bigger than I could actually hold. It was beautiful. And, even though I can remember this experience, I’ve never quite been able to enter that energy state again. But, now I know that “supplication” is an entering into the “glory, power and presence” of LOVE, and not a subjugated state.

I’m not exactly sure what to make of this meditation, but it has definitely stuck with me. I am on the verge of a transition in my life to a new home, located 100 miles from where I currently live. This future move certainly has me asking questions about what I will “do” when I get there. What is my service to the whole? What does “surrendering my separated self” really look like? Is it possible to form a cooperative structure in my own microcosm of humanity? What would that even look like?

How are you playing with the ideas of surrender and supplication?

New Year’s Day Blessing for You and Our Planet

December 30, 2013 by Channel Your Higher Self

Donyvon, my hair stylist, raved about this movie, “I Am,” which I finally watched* over the Christmas holidays.  WOW!  It is a beautiful documentary of the scientific proof of our interconnectedness with everything and everyone on this planet.  Much more important than the science however, at least to me, was this movie’s ability to open your heart to how YOU can contribute to the betterment of our planet.  Your energy, your consciousness, your actions, make a difference, which is the very definition of being a conscious evolutionary.

The most fascinating demonstration of this in the film was an experiment of electrodes placed in some yogurt and attached to a meter that could read changes in the electromagnetic field in the yogurt.  The director of the movie, Tom Shadyac (director of Ace Ventura, Bruce Almighty), was encouraged to think about people or situations that would elicit a strong emotional response.  He was not hooked up to anything, yet, his emotions registered as significant changes in the electrical field of the yogurt.  This was a powerful demonstration that we ripple energy and affect everything around us; everything reads our energy!

So, with that in mind I am making a request of you for this New Year’s Day, January 1, 2014.  Around the world this day is traditionally focused on questions such as “how can I be a better person, have a better life, etc.,” creating a huge wave of collective desire (strong emotion!) for something new.  Will you join me, along with the 1200+ friends of Ken Graydon, and use this wave of collective emotion to amplify a healing for ourselves, and therefore for our world?

The following blessing is from Ken Graydon, based on his work with the Organ Regeneration Process which recognizes that you are a hologram for all.  Feel the energy embedded in this, change the words to fit your own spiritual understandings if you need to, and then read it aloud on Wednesday, January 1.

starsI am in spirit; I and the Creator are one.
My healing blesses all of creation.
My intention with this healing is to offer regeneration to this whole body to bring it to the mental, spiritual, emotional and physical standard that the Creator and I had planned for it to be at now.
I go to the high point of my soul where I may tap into the source of all healing, the place of healing peace, the fountain of joy and the river of abundance. I am wrapped in a cloak of power, which may only be used for good. My tongue is blessed that I may speak the words of power, but only when used with love.

I make every effort to expand my consciousness, understanding and spiritual awareness to be the best possible representative of the Creator’s teaching and healing intentions for people, animals, environment and the planet.

I believe in this healing. I accept and allow all the blessings into my life. I am filled with gratitude and peace.

And so it is.

 

May you experience a blessed, abundant, healthy and astonishingly connected love for our planet in 2014.

 

* I watched the movie on HuluPlus.  I read that it’s also available on Netflix and you can rent it on Amazon.

Are YOU a Wayshower?

May 20, 2013 by Channel Your Higher Self

Are You A Wayshower?

Are You Answering (or resisting) the Call to Step Powerfully Into Your Purpose?

fire light 2 dreamstimefree_70114These are the questions my Conscious Evolutionary Circle is asking these days and we are sparking the flame within ourselves to not hold back, and to step powerfully forward into this calling.

The Angle News Network defines Wayshowers as “light workers who choose to bring their talents and gifts into the world in a larger way.  They use their leadership skills to help light workers contribute their skills to create a new world of community, harmony and equality.”

In our first couple of Circles about this subject, we looked at some common themes.

  • The importance of building our skills at living as our Essence, accepting and acknowledging ourselves as fully embodied and conscious spiritual beings.

This becomes a daily spiritual practice to be willing to consciously engage with others as our Essence, and be willing to notice when conditioned responses take over.   (See below for the opportunity to be a beta tester for an e-course to build this skill.)

  • To expand our spiritual practice for the integration of our beingness with our evolutionary impulse (read more) and allow “sacred activism” to ensue.
Andrew Harvey Institute for Sacred Activism

“A spirituality that is only private and self-absorbed, one devoid of an authentic political and social consciousness, does little to halt the suicidal juggernaut of history. On the other hand, an activism that is not purified by profound spiritual and psychological self-awareness and rooted in divine truth, wisdom, and compassion will only perpetuate the problem it is trying to solve, however righteous its intentions. When, however, the deepest and most grounded spiritual vision is married to a practical and pragmatic drive to transform all existing political, economic, and social institutions, a holy force – the power of wisdom and love in action – is born. This force I define as Sacred Activism.”      – Andrew Harvey

  • Stepping powerfully forward as a Wayshower can feel isolating and lonely.

As you lean into your calling as a Wayshower, it is more important than ever to form community with other like-minded pioneers.  You come to recognize that you are not a-l-o-n-e, but rather, a-l-l o-n-e.  You need a place to share ideas, heart-storm your next steps, and shore each other’s courage for accepting the vulnerability of bearing one’s soul as a gift to the world.  I deeply encourage you to find one or more places, face-to-face if possible, to interact with other Wayshowers.

If you are in Austin, please consider joining our MeetUp group that Circles on the third Wednesday of the month.  We are having a special “5th week” Circle on May 29, 10:45, mezzanine of Whole Foods at 6th and Lamar.

Are You a Wayshower who hasn’t stepped out yet?

  • Begin to journal about what it might look like for you to take on a leadership role in the area of your gifts.  Who are you here to show the way to?  Describe the ideal person you want to mentor, inspire or encourage.  What leadership skills do you already have?  Where do you need to improve?  What occurs to you as your “next step?”  You don’t have to have the “whole” plan, just an idea for what is next.

I am so Grateful for Guidance from my Higher Self

March 6, 2013 by Channel Your Higher Self

I am so grateful.

I am so grateful that I have practiced communicating with, and opening to the guidance of my Higher Self on a regular, consistent basis.

I am so grateful that I can hear, see, smell, receive, feel, touch, surrender to, and interpret this ongoing communication that flows to me unceasingly from my Higher Self.

 

If January was about sitting back (read more), then February was about bounding forward!  Things came together all of a sudden in February for my husband and I to take action on a home renovation project that has been on the vision board for years and years.

And, my Higher Self is here with me every step of the way.

 “Throw this away?  Get this shredded?”  A very certain “yes” or “no” is present.

 “Whom should I give this to?” A feeling about a specific person or organization shows up, and I’ve noticed it is appreciatively accepted.

 “Where is such and such?”  I can see clearly the box where it’s been packed, or the location in my house or car where the lost object is hiding.

These seem sort of trivial things when I write them here, but what I know is that my life flows easier, decisions seem clearer, and stress and worry are almost non-existent as I lean into this treasured skill that perhaps I had come to take for granted.

What it means is that I am actually living in each present moment these days.

I stay in the present moment even as I purge and release my hold on the past, and even as we create plans for this project’s future.  My foundation of trust in my Higher Self is being beautifully illuminated for me to see and appreciate.  What I am recognizing here is an outward manifestation of the inward embodiment of my Essence, fully allowing myself as a Spiritual Being to be doing. 

HA! This is what it looks like to “incarnate” as your Spirit.  It looks like every day life on the outside.  Yet there is this beautiful harmonic chord of peace, vibrancy, excitement, joy, happiness, curiosity, freedom, and more, on the inside.  How sweet is that?

I am so grateful. 

Ideas for Opening to the Guidance of Your Higher Self:

  • Sign up for 8 Awesome Ways to Know If You’ve Opened Your Channel for examples of how you can recognize the communication that is already flowing to you from your Higher Self.  (See side bar.)
  • Sink your awareness into your heart space, close your eyes and take several deep breaths.  Ask any question you want to of your Higher Self and wait expectantly for an answer to “bubble up” from deep inside.  Build your foundation of trust by beginning with little, non-consequential questions such as “What is the optimal dish for me to order?” or “Which email is best for me to read first?”  Play with the results by looking for the fun synchronicities that show up when you follow this guidance, even on little things.
  • Are you interested in exploring the path of embodying your Essence?  I am looking for beta testers for my e-course, The Spiritual Explorer’s Path, that will be ready for feedback in about 4 – 6 weeks.  At the completion of this e-course you will feel your Spiritual (Higher) Self fully integrated into your physical, moment-to-moment existence.  In exchange for your thoughtful insights about this product, you can receive it for FREE by completing the form below.

Are You Integrating the Shift?

January 25, 2013 by Channel Your Higher Self

Tissues, tea bags and cough drops, these have been my daily accoutrements since the beginning of this new era.

Louise Hay (Heal Your Body) says colds can signify “Too much going on at once.  Mental confusion, disorder.”  That is how I felt after the end of our new beginning, Birth 2012, 12/22/12.  Energies swirled in, through and around me over that period of days. But, I couldn’t tell you what they meant, what they were bringing or what was releasing; though it was clear to me something special indeed was happening. See a video below of some of my experiences.*

Hay goes on to say that coughs represent, “A desire to bark at the world, ‘See me! Listen to me!’”  But, I couldn’t get anything out.  In my first Conscious Evolution Circle on Jan. 2 every time I opened my mouth to speak, I was overcome with coughing spasms.  I canceled my second circle on 1/16 because I still was not well.

What if January was meant to be quiet and introspective in order to integrate these new energies?  That has certainly been my experience though I must admit to some envy as I read others’ blogs about their accelerated manifesting abilities since the Shift.

Maybe “quiet” is not the right word since it’s felt like a roller coaster of emotions going on inside of me trying to “hear” the messages and receive the communication that this new beginning has for me.  I’ve traveled up and down from doubt to trust, from questioning my practices to being with what is, from feeling disconnected and out of sorts to expansive states of peace and bliss.

And yet, I can’t say with clarity just exactly what shifted with the Shift.   I can, though, say with certainty that our world did shift.  I can feel it when I’m in public spaces. The quality of rippling collective energy is just different, somehow softer, more receptive, less harsh, more cooperative, more caring.

There is something, and that something keeps me curious and looking for “what’s new and different?” This question is the real “accoutrement” of a Conscious Evolutionary, always looking for the emergent properties.  When I find them, believe me, I will share them directly with YOU!

Possibilities for Integrating the Shift:

  • Be inspired by Barbara Marx Hubbard as she talks about the path forward post-Birth in Dawning of a New You and a New World.  Download this free conversation here:  http://theacetraining.com/Dawn
  • Become an “Agent of Conscious Evolution” to foster this new era and gain the skills for stepping boldly into the gifts you are here to give our world.  Class begins January 29. http://theacetraining.com/ACE
  • Get involved with a community of like-minded others who are playing with these energies.  There are many different groups at meetup.com, including Austin Conscious Evolutionaries.  We meet the 1st and 3rd Wednesday mornings at 10:45 – noon at The Tea Embassy.

*Want to see what I did around 12/22/12?  Here’s a 2-min video of some of my experiences:

What’s your experience since the Shift?

What are your subtle senses picking up?  Maybe you’re one of those who have noticed an acceleration of your ability to manifest.  Maybe time feels different for you.  Maybe you’ve also been on a roller coaster and didn’t want to mention it because so many others are having grand experiences.  It’s all good.  Do tell!
