I believe Everybody has a Higher Self!



It used to be that conversing with our Higher Self was an inborn capacity. After some time, we lost that valuable blessing.


Current life has realized numerous awesome changes. We have started to depend on specialists and experts to mention to us what's wrong with us, when before, we could talk legitimately to our bodies.

We seek specialists for answers for everything. The outcome is our Higher Self, our Intuition, has taken a secondary lounge.

On the off chance that that isn't terrible enough, since we aren't associating with our Higher Selves, our sense of self is allowed to cause turmoil.

Take a gander at the present reality, and you will see individuals harming individuals, harming the planet, and harming themselves. What you are seeing is EGO.

Inner self is the insane voice mentioning to you what to be distraught about and what to fear. It is the wellspring of uneasiness and the explanation you think about things literally. It wants to replay your alleged disappointments to keep you stuck in a circle of over-figuring, which may appear to be difficult to escape.

The uplifting news is you can move beyond the conscience and carry on with your life from a Higher Self viewpoint!





Clearing the Ego and associating with your Higher Self isn't hard. Indeed, you can do it like a flash. To state it is groundbreaking sounds antique, however it is TRUE!

At the point when you have this association, limitless information opens up when we interface with the Universe through our Higher Selves.

You can get to this information to help with wellbeing, connections, showing, You name it, there are no restrictions!

Beginner Meditation Techniques




Understand that meditation is not something that will happen overnight or something that will be automatic from the start. It takes time and it takes practice.

Start to focus on your breathing throughout the day. When you are hurried and rushed, do you notice that your breath is shorter and more labored? If so, begin by focusing on each breath, taking deep breaths in through the nostrils and releasing through the mouth. You should also notice the rise and fall of your stomach as you focus on your breathing.

Be intentional about your meditation. Meditation is a practice and a learned skill. It needs to be practiced intentionally in order for it to work. It does not just happen to you.

Dress appropriately for meditation. If you are trying to sneak in ten minutes of meditation in your lunch hour, dressed in your business skirt and heels, chances are you will be rushed. Set aside a time that is appropriate where you can wear loose fitting clothing and where you can concentrate.



Begin with the practice of releasing tension in all your body parts. Focus on the feet first and release tension in that area; move up to your ankles, etc. Do this until you have reached the top of your head.

Practice your breathing techniques together with the release of tension in your body parts. At first, this will seem difficult; however, it will become easier as time goes on.

Stretching your muscles a bit before sitting to meditate is a great way to get blood circulating and get in the moment.
Choose a focal point, if you wish. For some, meditation is only done with their eyes closed, while others need a focal point. Yours could be a picture on the wall of a serene setting.


Be consistent with your mediation practices. Do not let circumstances take over control of your mediation practice. Before you know it, you will become a pro - just stay consistent.

5 Meditation Tips



Meditation is one of our favorite rituals that can improve almost any aspect of our lives. (Inner peace, success, relaxing, relationships, etc)



 

Here are 5 tips (for beginners) that you can apply instantly and improve your meditating experience:

1. Do it first thing each morning. Wake up 10 minutes earlier and just use this time to meditate every morning

2. Remove Distractions. Turn off your cell phone, put it on vibrate, or leave it in another room. You want to be in a place without distractions.

3. Have fun with your practice. Allow yourself to really enjoy your meditation session. Have fun with it.

4. Really commit yourself.
Don't just say, "Sure, I'll try this for a couple days." Really commit yourself to this. In your mind, be locked in, for at least a month.

5. Meditate with others. Whether it's with friends, family members, your partner, a coach, or an organization, by meditating in a group it'll help you stay committed to the practice. Moreover, you can share your experiences afterward.

I hope you enjoy and apply those tips instantly...

Morning Meditation

In the first moments of day before our mind is fully awake can be a wonderful time for meditation.

In these first moments of day, when the sun's golden light is just peeking over the horizon, our animal mind remains in the land of slumber though we ourselves are awake. Deep sleep has washed away the impurities of existence that accumulated within us, so our mental, physical, and emotional potential is heightened. To meditate in this peaceful yet energetically charged in-between time is to connect with the divine in an extremely intimate fashion.




We discover a new kinship with the universal life force during morning meditations because our awareness becomes a mirror for earthly consciousness—we wake as the world wakes, quietly embracing the joy of being and setting the tone for a serene, fulfilling day.

In the first glow of morning, the light, air, and energy flowing around us speak in hushed tones of the activity to come. While we recognize that another day of being means becoming once again immersed in the challenges of action and reaction, we also understand that we can draw upon the unique energetic qualities of daybreak for comfort, creativity, and vigor. There is bliss in the simple knowledge that we have been given the gift of another day of existence. We are inspired by sights and sounds of the sun's gentle ascension. Birds serenade the luminosity, which grows richer by the minute. And though we may feel a residual lethargy, our vitality returns as our meditation helps us to become one with the stirring of other beings rubbing the sleep from their eyes. At the start of each day, our destiny has not yet been written, and so there is nothing we cannot do.





How we choose to meditate is less important than our choice to attune ourselves to the spirit of wakefulness that travels round the world each and every day. Even the briefest moment of quiet contemplation in the muted light of the sun can put all that is yet to come into perspective. As a consequence of our daybreak reflections, our lives are imbued with the same stability, tranquility, and increased awareness that humanity has long associated with the stillness of early morning.

Meditation for an abundant life

Once thought of as a ritual performed by men who shaved their heads, wore long robes and lived in a mountain cave, this mind quieting, stress relieving natural self-healing practice is becoming so commonplace that corporations such as Deutsche Bank, Google and Hughes Aircraft recognize the intuitive powers of it and offer meditation classes to their employees.



This audio created by Bob Proctor and Mind valley will help you to relax, step back and visualize the abundance which is already there, but which might have not been within your reach yet. It will guide you into a relaxed state of mind and then take you on a guided journey into your future.





Having the ability to quiet one's mind and retreat to a thought-free state of calmness opens the connection to higher intelligence and greatly enhances problem-solving abilities. In addition, with practice and coaching you can develop the ability to ask pointed questions and receive answers to them through this same dynamic channel.

The number of miracles born out of a regular practice of meditation are untold. From loosing weight and quitting smoking, to manifesting more money and physical items, to rekindling relationships and curing terminal diseases, millions of accounts of miracles just like these are attributed to meditation.

Have a fantastic day,

Navel Meditation





Navel meditation, a creation of the Taoist tradition and the oldest form of meditation recognized in China and India, is a simple practice suitable for those experienced in the art of mediation, yet it is also a wonderful introductory meditation for novices. It utilizes the natural rhythms of the breath and the regular movement of the abdomen as a means to focus awareness and rid oneself of extraneous thoughts. As you concentrate on the breath, the chaos within reveals itself, allowing you to gently train your mind to accept stillness as its natural state.    



There is an interesting series of 5 videos on this very topic, the first is added below.


To begin, assume a comfortable and natural seated position—either cross-legged on a cushion on the floor or on a chair with your legs facing forward. Maintaining an upright, balanced posture will ensure that you are physically centered and prevent fatigue. 

Close your eyes and relax your body gradually, starting at the toes and ending at the crown of the head. Take a moment to note any physical sensations you are feeling, such as the hardness of the floor under your legs or the weight of a piece of jewelry. When you are relaxed, breathe through the nose at your natural pace. 

With each inhalation, draw air deep into the abdomen, allowing the area surrounding your navel to rise and fall. Gradually focus your attention on the sensations caused by the inhalation and exhalation of breath. Feel the air flowing in and out of the nostrils as well as the expansion and contraction of the abdomen.

You may notice that your mind strays. When this occurs, do not attach any significance to your thoughts. Simply bring your attention back to the flow of air into and out of your body and the rise and fall of your navel. Eventually, the torrent of mental noise flooding your mind will slow to a trickle, and you will learn to control the current of your thoughts until you are no longer at the mercy of your reactions. 

The more you practice this meditation, daily if possible, the more you will be able to get back to this relaxed state easily throughout your day.

The energy of the human mind


We know how important it is to practice positive thinking if you want to change your life. Positive thinking consists of generating thoughts that affirm your abilities, and add value to your life. They don’t denigrate you, or cause you to doubt yourself. But as you may have noticed, thoughts are a kind of energy that’s hard to control. The best you can do is not consciously cultivate negative or destructive thoughts, so they don’t impede your progress towards achieving a happy and successful life.


Ultimately, positive thinking is the solution to all your problems. You need to emit positive, constructive thoughts that affirm your self-confidence, and the confidence you have in your abilities and your future, without having any contradictory ideas.

In reality, things may be more difficult, especially if you find your life unsatisfying. As Einstein indicated, the mentality you have now won’t bring you happiness in future.


Changing direction

Try to imagine your life as a river down which you’re navigating. The water is flowing fast, the winds occasionally pick up, sometimes you’re in control, but at other times you’re not.

When you’re in control of a situation, you can guide your vessel using your mind as the rudder. And it’s when you feel that you’re in control of your life that you emit the most positive thoughts.

When you’re not in control of what happens, you’re like a rudderless boat being carried here and there by the currents and the wind. That’s when you generate your darkest thoughts, those that prevent you from moving forward. If you’re not careful they can gradually take over and push you back, so you lose the benefits of any previous effort you made.

If you want to change the direction of your present existence, keep a solid hold on your rudder, and live your life the way you want. Always keep this image of yourself as a boat navigating through the currents of life top-of-mind.

It will help you differentiate between the states of well-being and discomfort you experience. During periods of well-being, you emit more positive thoughts, your self-confidence gets stronger, and you acquire more motivation and willpower. During the hard times you generate more negative thoughts, and doubt your ability to succeed. But you can regain control of your vessel by forcing yourself to think positive thoughts that will eventually weaken and reverse the negative currents that get hold of you.


Patience and Time

To reverse the negative currents of your thoughts into positive ones, avoid stressful situations whenever possible, don’t let yourself become upset, and, above all, don’t stop trying. Giving up is the best way to undermine your progress, and cut the branch you’re sitting on, leaving you flat on the ground.

Learn to be calm, and stay calm. Don’t react violently, in thought, word or deed, to exterior aggression. It may not be easy at first, but take all the time you need. If you’re patient, you will succeed.

In addition to staying calm, try to practice the great virtue of patience, since both are closely linked. If you’re calm, you won’t lose your patience. The calmer you are, the more patient you’ll be. One depends on the other. If you can express them both, you’ll open wide the doors to success.

Take your time. Don’t try to change your way of thinking, which has been with you for years, from one minute to the next, or from one day to the next. It takes time to alter things you’ve been conditioned to do since childhood.



Give Up Your Anger

Starting now, cultivate patience every day, and you’ll see how the virtue will benefit all aspects of your life. It’s no good making decisions when you’re emotional, pressed for time, or being pressured by other people. Experience shows that most decisions made under those conditions turn out to be harmful.

Even if you’re only able to generate a single positive thought a day, it will be a great step forward. Tell yourself that, starting today, you’ll formulate at least one positive thought every day, either spontaneously, or as a way of neutralizing something negative that comes to your mind.

Emitting a spontaneous positive thought consists of voluntarily deciding to say something, either to yourself or out loud, that affirms your self-confidence, and your ability to live up to your hopes for success and a better future.

Now take a few minutes to formulate, in your own words, a short sentence of one or two lines that affirms your self-confidence. It doesn’t matter if you don’t feel very confident at the moment, since that should soon change.

The magic of positive thinking is precisely that: it imposes an idea on your mind with so much conviction that it becomes your own, in this case making you think, speak and act with confidence.

Never get angry, be patient, and be constant in your emission of positive thoughts. You’ll quickly go from one positive thought a day to two, three, four and more, until your state-of-mind becomes transformed for the better.

You’ll come out a winner in the battle against the darker side of yourself, the one that’s preventing you from moving forward. I guarantee it!
