Why Be in Alignment with Source Energy?


Note:  This blog is being relocated to www.koropeski.com


Being in alignment with Source energy is something you may have been reading and hearing about for awhile now.  What about "being in alignment" makes it so popular of a topic?  For one thing, it feels good to be in alignment with Source energy.  When you are in alignment with Source energy you feel at ease and at one with life.  Your day has a good flow to it.  You feel joy, satisfaction, love and all the other goodies that go with that.

You will know when you are in alignment, because of all of those feel good feelings that you are experiencing.  There's one good reason to be in alignment with Source energy!

There's more to this though, than meets the eye (or ear).  Being in alignment with Source energy is what allows us to receive the experiences that Source has to deliver to us.  Being in alignment brings us into the state of being where we can accept and receive all the good things that Source is constantly sending our way.  When we are out of alignment with Source energy, we are filtering out all the good things that Source is contantly sending to us.

So first and foremost today, follow your joy.  Find your peace.  Stay in alignment with Source.  It feels great and it brings you want you most desire.  Feeling down only blocks what you have asked for from getting to you as a first hand experience in your life.  Good reason to stay up!  Seek experiences and people that enhance your ability to feel joy!

Journaling to Move Energy

Note:  This blog is being relocated to www.koropeski.com


Lately I've been at it again.  Journaling every morning for three full pages of whatever comes up in my mind.  It's amazing what can come up!  And it's also amazing the amount of energy it can move when I do it regularly.

Julia Cameron's book "The Artist's Way" talks about journaling every morning, completely unedited and uncensored, for three full pages.  When I'd first read that book I started journaling faithfully every morning.  The shifts were huge.  I went on a Christmas baking spree like never before.  (And that my friends, was in November!)

This morning I woke up really early and just had to do something BIG.  So I went down to the basement and cleaned, cleared and purged for about two hours.  Wow.  That felt great!  This journaling really does work for moving my energy.

If you find that you are journaling with a question and aren't getting an answer, try journaling with your other (non-dominant) hand and see what comes up!  I'd been journaling for months at one point in my life trying to make a big decision and all that came up was analytical type thoughts - and never an answer.  When I switched the pen to my left hand it was mind blowing!  In one page of big childish writing, there was my answer.  And boy oh boy was it accurate.  The reason this answer came so quickly was because it had come from the other side of my brain, which I hadn't previously accessed when journaling with my right hand.  :o)

So try journaling each morning.  Just write whatever the heck comes into your mind.  My friend says when she does this it feels like getting rid of all the rats running around in her brain.  What I do with my journaling afterwards is shred it and throw it out.  No need for me to hang onto all that stuff I just purged from my mind!

Relax and Lighten Up, and Play!

Note:  This blog is being relocated to www.koropeski.com


Lately I've heard a lot people talking about play.  Putting "play" on their schedules.  And yes it is really important to take time to play.  It's why I'm so happy to have dogs around the house. 
The dogs love to play and are always inviting me to play with them.

Play though, isn't something to be scheduled in for an hour a day, or on any set schedule.  That is more like therapy, isn't it?  Play is something that spontaneously awakens from within you on a moment to moment basis.  It improves your health and well being, raises your vibration and makes life a whole lot more fun.  Isn't that why you came here anyways?  Yes, we actually came here to enjoy the physicality of the earth plane existence, to play joyfully, smell the flowers and to love.  And that my friends, is getting you into the best vibration you can offer to the world.  :o)

So let today be a day that allows playfulness to arise within you spontaneously and surrender to that feeling.  Giggle a bit, laugh a bit, be silly a bit.  It's the best "pill" out there!

Cheers,
Maureen

Resonance, Entrainment and Healing

So many people ask me how energy healing works.  It can be perceived as a very mystical and unusual method of assisting another person with their healing.  It's not hocus pocus or anything even close.  It's all about frequencies, resonance and entrainment.

When something vibrates at a high frequency and comes into the vicinity of something vibrating at a lower frequency there is a tendency for the two frequencies to align.  Either the low frequency can rise to meet the higher one, the higher one can decrease to meet the lower one, or they can both shift and align somewhere in the middle.

Christian Huygens (a Dutch mathematician, astonomer, physicist and horologist) in the 1600's found this occurred with his clocks that lined up along his wall.  Even though they all were set into motion at different times, the pendulums would eventually all come into the same pattern, so that they would be ticking together.  You see this in nature all the time.  You also feel this when you go out with a sad or angry friend to cheer them up.  Often what happens though is that after visiting the friend, you feel just as bad!  What happened there?  Your frequency lowered and matched theirs.

Resonance is what allows the energy transference to take place between the separate people or things.  Entrainment is what is happening when the frequencies of each align with each other.

So why do Bach Flower remedies work?  Why does energy "healing" work?  Why does Reiki work?  It works simply because it is all about bringing in a higher frequency.  Then you naturally entrain to the higher frequency.  When this happens you feel better and the healing process can occur!

Setting Your Tone for the Day

You rendez vous with anything that is in your vibration so consider setting your vibrational tone for the day! 

Yesterday morning I woke up with this thought in my head and came to the conclusion that it was a good topic to blog about.  Little did I know that it was a crystal clear message to set my tone for the day right now. 

As a sat down yesterday at my computer to write this blog post, I heard a clear message in my head to take a chicken out of the freezer right now.  So I went to the freezer and when I opened it there was water dripping and all the food was defrosting!  And very shortly after that discovery I was informed that my mother had fallen and was taken by ambulance to the hospital.  Needless to say I had a few other things to do that took priority over blogging!

Lucky for me that the very first thing I did when I awoke yesterday, was to sit and meditate and set my tone for the day.  If I hadn't have done that I would have been taken adrift by all the events of the day!  So it's really a choice.  Every morning it's a great idea to wake up and consciously choose our mood and feeling and attitude for the day.  Otherwise, life's events will choose for us.

A clear focus of having an inner feeling that I am calm and clear and loving is my best way to start any day!

Babies and Puppies

Babies and Puppies

They see the world with a freshness that is beyond our comprehension.  Everything is new and wonderful and exciting to them.  They don't see any person as bad or good - they just see the person.  They revel in life and have complete wonderment wtih the world around them.  Perhaps that is why we love so much to be around them.  They open our hearts just by being with them.  It feels good and warm and fuzzy.  Today I am choosing to think about babies and puppies and conjure up that warm fuzzy feeling as much as possible.  I'm going to hold that feeling as long as I can as often as I can.  That feeling will bring more good things my way and heal my body too.  What a gift of joy and healing innocence brings!  Thank you babies and puppies.

Looking at Things Freshly

Having no judgement about something is a little bit different than surrendering to it.  When you surrender to something you quick struggling and pushing against it.  You stop resisting.  This doesn't completely mean though that you have no judgement about it.  Judgements are like conclusions.  You've come to a decision and a conclusion about something.  That conclusion you've come to is your way of seeing it, and that locks it into place.  How you see something and how you feel about something when you are looking at it affects it and holds it in place via your perceptions of it.  So instead of just accepting things the way they are try having no conclusion whatsoever about it.  It just is.  This way you free up the locking in by observation of whatever it is you are looking at.  Look at everything fresh, including your own self in the mirror!  That is why when we see something in ourselves or another person that looks "real" to us we judge and conclude that that's just how it is.  We hold it in place.  Let go of all that at the subconscious level and watch your reality tranform faster than you can count to 10!

Reclaiming Your Inner Peace and Strength

Every resentment or grudge you carry is like a ball of ice in your heart.  It prevents you from tapping into your full potential.  It blocks you from reclaiming your inner peace and strength.  It literally freezes you up and prevents you from moving forward in life with joy, ease and grace.  If I start feeling angry or irritated, or resentful I check it out right away.  Do I want to have this false sense of "feeling justified" or do I want to step fully into being my true self?  My true self, and everyone's true self, is really truly strong, loving, peaceful and powerful.  It's just a choice of whether or not to let go of that ball of ice and go there!  Choose for yourself.  :o)

What is Conscious Living?

Conscious living?  Before I started my "inward" journey, I remember wondering what people meant when they spoke about "conscious living".  Aren't we all conscious?  My thought was that only people in a coma weren't living consciously.  And perhaps a person who was seriously drugged out wasn't totally conscious.  And if it was true that living consciously was an "enlightened" way of being, why was that?  What the heck was I missing? 

It seems to me now that I really can observe myself.  Observe what I am doing, thinking and saying.  I remember doing that as a young kid at times, watching every move I made and everything I said or thought.  It felt like I was in a movie.  And sometimes I would "watch" myself doing things that I didn't want others to see.  Maybe it was because I was being goofy, or acting like the silly "me" that others wouldn't accept.  None the less, at times I watched my thoughts and actions and feelings.  Now I believe that watching ourselves like that is what being awake and conscious really means.  And at first I found it difficult to do that for extended periods of time. 

The Buddhists call the part of us that can pay attention to what we are paying attention to, the "observer self".  Emmerson said "stand guard at the portal of your mind" and I believe this is what he was talking about.  Watch to see what thoughts have more power and potency behind them.  Usually the fearful thoughts, or thoughts about something we are totally passionate about, are the thoughts with more "punch" and power behind them.

Pay attention to your desires and discontent.  You'll learn a lot about yourself.  :o)

Sad

What is Sadness?

Sadness is the empty feeling that creeps in and pulls your eyes down.  It is heavy and feels very much alone.  Think about joy and how light and uplifting it feels.  Sadness feels the opposite to me.  It makes me feel alone and like I want to be alone.  How do you feel when you are sad?  It has no energy, no motivation and no direction.  It feels calm sometimes, but really really empty.  I can be very sad and very very calm at the same time.  The sadness is not you.  It is just a wave of energy passing through you.  It is just chemicals in your bloodsteam.  Is your sadness old sadness that has surfaced?  If so it is a good time to let it go and release it from your very being.  How do you do that?  Just watch it, like watching somebody you don’t know, walking on the other side of the street.  Just observe it.  Your very observing it causes it to change and release.  Do though, observe it with no judgement, no classification or criticism.  Just allow it to be, and watch it.  Or is your sadness a new sadness due to the loss of a loved one?  Or the loss of a pet?  Sadness is deep.  Sadness pulls down and digs into the ground below us.  I stopped struggling with my sadness and stopped trying to make it go away.  That never worked very well.  Neither does pushing it aside by doing something else, like reading a novel, talking on the phone, running, sewing, smoking, drinking, shopping or pretty much anything else we do to distract ourselves.  Instead, I nurture myself.  I tell myself that all is well and I am okay, despite the sadness that is passing through me.  When you let it be it will pass through you.  When you struggle with it – it just may bury itself inside of you, only to wake up again at a later time.  Sadness sweet sadness.  I nurture myself now, and wait for you to lift, just like the fog.  I wait for the sunshine to return as I know it always does.

Blessings

What is a Blessing?

Every time a child smiles at you, it is a blessing.  Every time a child takes your hand, they are extending to you their blessing.  Blessings are all over the place, and we don’t always see them.  When you are out shopping do you smile at people?  Do you say thank you?  Every time you extend a heartfelt gesture of any kind towards anyone, you are extending your blessing.  Blessings can only come from the heart.  Kind gestures that are void and empty of feeling are not blessings, they are only gestures.  Are you open to receiving all the blessings that come your way?  Or do you close them off from your heart, and refuse to actually feel them?

Source energy, which is really what love is, downloads into us and emanates from our hearts.  When we connect to this Source energy by feeling it (and it can only feel loving) we can then extend our blessings to the world.  Get in touch with your heart.  Put your hand on your heart.  Think of something, anything, that you are grateful for.  It might be simple things like a warm bed to sleep in, or a good meal to eat.  But feel the gratitude for it in your body.  Get into that warm fuzzy feeling.  Only from this feeling can you extend blessings.  From this space, go out into your world and allow this Source energy to shine forth from you to everyone you meet.  It is really easy to do.  We just forget to do it!  A little nod, with the right feeling, really effects the person you direct it to.  It can’t not affect them.

Do you have a pet?  Ever notice how when you feel warm fuzzy feelings they want to be beside you?  Many cats love to be right beside their owners when they are meditating, because the love the peaceful feelings that are beaming out from their owner.   If you are really angry you do not even have to say a word.  Just the feeling will cause your dog to want to sit across the room for you, or even leave the room.  Do you believe in this energy of Source?  It is real, and even more real than anything else in your world.  In fact it is all that there is really.

Do you want to accept blessings?  Do you want to extend them?  Why bother?  Simply put, your feelings, the actual feelings in your body, affect everybody and everything around you.  Do you want to help others?  Feeling love when you are with someone is the greatest blessing you can give them.  It’s really why we came here. 

Many Blessings,
Maureen

More Reasons to Forgive Yourself

Forgiving oneself seems to be difficult for most of us.  We are harder on ourselves, deep down inside, than we are on anyone else.  Previously I wrote in my blog about reasons to forgive ourselves that spoke about the frequency that we hold being our vote in the collective consciousness of the planet.  And that is a good enough reason in itself! 
Our health though, is hugely affected by how we feel about ourselves.  When we are loving, kind and forgiving towards ourselves, our health will flourish.  When we feel guilty and are hard on ourselves, it starts to physically affect and break down our bodies.  The body then becomes less able to repair itself and heal itself.  It causes us to age faster and feel tired, depressed and just plain "worn out".
So if you are looking for more reasons to forgive yourself, your own health and well being is a great reason!  Value yourself greatly and see that you are here on the planet for a reason.  You have huge worth, and you came here use your talents, your love and your gifts.  So step up to the plate, and forgive yourself!!!
It will free you to be filled with more energy and vitality to do what you came here to do.  :o)
When I lay my head down on the pillow for the last time and take inventory of my life, I really intend to look back and see that I actually did use my love and energy to do what it is that I came here for.  And only in setting myself free by forgiving myself, can I truly step up to the plate and be the best I can be!
