I had an interesting morning on this journey today; a morning of practise that I trust will set the tone for the rest of this day and onwards. I realised something that I had always got in theory but not in practise. That the truth is in the practise, the truth is in the application, the truth is in our conscious workings with spirit.
Years ago my ideas on being spiritual were not more than a little meditation and fasting here and there followed with some affirmations. I could never get why I kept falling through these cycles of high and low, but my actions spread all the meaning. I was what Iyanla Vanzant would call a theoretical spiritualist! (Spirit guided me to page 44 of Faith in the Valley) I read all the books, went to the classes, watched the DVD’s, did a little Pilates but the intention was lost in many directions. I would pick all of these things up when I started to feel a little sour, and the moment I felt a little better would act like they never existed – until I fell flat again.
Intention is everything, and working with spirit is not something you can take off and on. Spirit is ever present, ever within everything we experience, it is whether we choose to notice, listen, ask and live in that guidance that is important. When I read A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle a few years back, I felt I so connected with the limitations ego, and the necessity to just be. My mind had become a myriad of constant thoughts, build ups or worry, guilt, regret, anger, intense desires to prove myself to other beings in picturesque stories that would run and repeat constantly. Self medication through addictions was literally a reach to numb the sound. I didn’t get it. I couldn’t understand how to just BE.
Being is being with spirit, when you live with spirit, when your eyes and ears are open every minute of every day, you do not have time for the pointless thoughts of your lower self! They cannot exist when you are constantly experiencing true living.
I realised that I must witness, that I must be aware of the spirit in everything I do, every moment. That I must apply the things I know consistently. So I this morning, I wanted to share with you how I began to dedicate every moment to witness, invite and live in spirit.
When I washed, I embraced the spirits of water and asked for their blessings in my daily intentions. I asked to be purified and removed yesterdays fetters through every second of contact. I scrubbed in a downwards direction, pushing all lesser thoughts and emotions out of my body and watched them rinse down the drain. When I washed the bath, I commanded that all negative energy remove itself from the tub and run down the drain so that the next being to enter the purification room can do just that. Purify without absorbing my leftovers! (This is something to complete when entering the bathroom also) I then used my hands to charge the intention of purification for the next.
When I left the bathroom, I felt so refreshed and ready to oil in some intent! So I commanded the oil as I worked it into my skin, oiling in my days intentions of creativity, patience and unconditional love. The ability to see through judgement and not apply it to who I make contact with during the day...oh how wonderful life is when you live it the spirit way!
I plan to keep this flowing through the rest of my day, as I work, eat and play...Do feel free to join me!
I’m so happy to share this experience with you,
Peace and Unconditional love to your Spirits, may your day been filled with Love!
