"Awareness heals." ~ Ezna Bayda
Do unwanted experiences that create pain and suffering continue to show up for you? Would you be open to the concept that Awareness and then the simple act of changing your thoughts about these experiences, could transform them? If so, read on...
There is tremendous power in the Awareness of your thoughts and emotions. It gives you the ability at a moments notice to choose what you wish to experience next. How do you develop this Awareness? Through Meditation! Meditation is the best practice to heighten your Awareness of your thoughts, of your soul and your connection to Spirit. When you live your life from the standpoint of your soul connected to Spirit, your Awareness on a conscience level naturally heightens. You become very aware that you truly are the creator of all of your life's experiences. You know that you will always have the power to choose what you experience next. That you are, indeed, a co-creator with God. It is from my personal meditation that my Awareness continues to become stronger as time marches along. Here is how Awareness has worked for me.
When an experience that has created discomfort in me occurs, I step back from the situation, observe it, and take note. Then I ask myself this: "What do I wish to experience next?" Do I want to have the experience of pain and suffering or do I want to experience peace? It is the deliberate choice that gives me the new experience. For example:
Just this afternoon a lady in my office building misread my actions and took offense to them. She was quite rude in her behavior towards me and stormed out of the building not allowing me to explain my actions. Initially, I did panic and usually, I'd fret and worry all day over something like this. However, though Awareness I became instantly aware of my emotions, stepped back, observed them and chose to experience this differently. I took a few deep breaths and examined my thoughts and my heart. I knew I had no bad intentions in my actions and I certainly did not know what was going on with her. I chose to not take what happened personally! I chose not to have judgment of her, the situation or myself. I then literally surrounded the situation in the brightest Light I could and let it go. The rest of my afternoon was a bright and cheery one!
A word of caution! Be careful not to criticize yourself or think that you should not be feeling a particular way about a situation.
Being aware is not denial or suppressing your emotions. It is quite the opposite. You fully experience and observe the feelings that have arisen. You do not judge them! Then through your Awareness, you choose to either continue feeling the way you do or you choose new thoughts and therefore new feelings and hence a new experience. There is power in Awareness. Awareness heals. You are a powerful co-creator with God. Through meditation and connecting your soul with Spirit, you become fully aware of this loving power!
