Living in Harmony with The Christmas Spirit

       

"He who has not Christmas in his heart will never find it under a tree."  

      ~Roy L. Smith

Who among us has not contemplated, the Spirit of Christmas? When I considered wrapping my arms around this idea I went to a considered source;

"And so I tell you, keep on asking, and you will receive what you ask for. Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks, receives. Everyone who seeks, finds. And to everyone who knocks, the door will be opened."

~Jesus 

Yes, the insight went, I need to trust in my transformational process knowing that the universe supports my journey and the way forward to true resonance with the Christmas Spirit!

 Yet, I thought, what about all my current beliefs and attitudes that have been formed over all my years from birth by special-interest groups; how have they polluted my understanding of this true Christmas spirit?

“You have heard the law that says, ‘Love your neighbor’ and hate your enemy. But I say, love your enemies! Pray for those who persecute you! In that way, you will be acting as true children of your Father in heaven. For he gives his sunlight to both the evil and the good, and he sends rain on the just and the unjust alike. If you love only those who love you, what reward is there for that? Even corrupt tax collectors do that much. If you are kind only to your friends, how are you different from anyone else? ~Jesus

Oh wow, my insight lead yet to even more concerns as I further contemplated other possible hindrances to savoring the true joy of the Christmas spirit.

Thoughts of family situations loomed large...like this scene

 I personally identify with these aspects of Christmas below quoted; and yet it is not my intent here to proffer a definition of Christmas spirit. My intention here is to offer you an opening for your consideration on the topic, What is the True Christmas Spirit?

"I will honor Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year."  ~Charles Dickens

"Blessed is the season which engages the whole world in a conspiracy of love!"  ~Hamilton Wright Mabie

"Christmas is not as much about opening our presents as opening our hearts."  ~Janice Maeditere

"This is the message of Christmas:  We are never alone."  ~Taylor Caldwell
 

"What is Christmas?  It is tenderness for the past, courage for the present, hope for the future.  It is a fervent wish that every cup may overflow with blessings rich and eternal, and that every path may lead to peace."  ~Agnes M. Pahro

"It is good to be children sometimes, and never better than at Christmas when its mighty Founder was a child Himself."  ~Charles Dickens

"I'm dreaming of a white Christmas,
Just like the ones I used to know,
Where the tree tops glisten
And children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow..."
~Irving Berlin

What are some of yours?

 

My wish for you this Christmas and throughout 2011 is for you to embrace whatever core meaning you hold for the true spirit of Christmas; align with it vibrationally and move that feeling into the core of your consciousness and let's smile as we experience the enhanced levels of love in our world!

"And the Grinch, with his Grinch-feet ice cold in the snow, stood puzzling and puzzling, how could it be so? It came without ribbons. It came without tags. It came without packages, boxes or bags. And he puzzled and puzzled 'till his puzzler was sore. Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before. What if Christmas, he thought, doesn't come from a store. What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more." ~Dr. Seuss

May your Christmas spirit grow and flow from within-out as you co-create to craft a Christmas aligned with love and light! ~Dave

 

Awakening To Follow The Natural You

"If every day is an awakening, you will never grow old. You will just keep growing. "~Gail Sheehy

"Life is a magnificent manifestation where if we honor Sacred Mother Earth, rivers of love will flow freely. New levels of spiritual awareness are upon us and by recognizing their beauty we can inspire every aspect of our lives. Let your soul be an oasis of transformation that takes your life to the next level and fulfills your dreams. Rejoice in your awakening, the future is now and love is in every breath you take."

~Micheal Teal

Micheal Teal, a philosopher and shaman, shows his reverence for individuals moving through a transformational life process and the importance of experiencing each and every moment of your life as the sacred experience it truly is.

At this time, our planet is undergoing an evolutionary upgrade in consciousness as we seek to move into alignment with living from the beautiful and unique nature of who we each are.

The only authentic alignments are to be found in aligning with source energy through your internal guidance system.

"Every time you don't follow your inner guidance, you feel a loss of energy, loss of power, a sense of spiritual deadness."  ~Shakti Gawain

Now is your time to craft a life which is reflective of the loving and insightful person you truly are; which expresses your core values and your intention to collaborate with like-minded others who are seeking a prosperous, harmonious, peaceful, healthy and vibrant world for all.

 

 

“There is something in every one of you that waits and listens for the sound of the genuine in yourself. It is the only true guide you will ever have. And if you cannot hear it, you will all of your life spend your days on the ends of strings that somebody else pulls.”

~ Howard Thurman

Now is the time to become the change you seek to live. You have it within you to claim your rightful place as co-creator of your earthly experience.

Your intentional involvement in the affairs of our beloved Earth Mother, as a respected partner and student, is much needed. 

Alignment with the emerging galactic paradigm of light/love-centered living is an inspired life-choice; though not one all with move to embrace.

Consider these questions as you seek insight into how you may more effectively connect to your desired life intention:

• What values must I have at my core to align with my true nature?
• When do you smile most?
• Who is and has been present during your favorite times?
• Which of your activities do you engage in with passion?
• Where, on Earth, do you feel the most alive?
• Which emotions do enjoy experiencing?
• When you dream dreams that awaken you to a smile; what are you up to?

Now a beautiful and engaging video to get you in the mood for self-exploration and further integration with your true nature; I share with you,

"Awakening" 

 

Nurture your relationship with yourself; this primary relationship will constantly provide you with valuable insights; many to incite you to embrace the life of your dreams. ~Dave

Working with The Field of Infinite Possibilities

"Just by being ourselves we are borne toward a destiny far beyond anything we could imagine. It is enough to know that the being I nourish inside me is the same as the Being that suffuses every atom of the cosmos."

~Deepak Chopra

Dr. Chopra gets it!  Getting to know, experience and develop mastery when you're in  alignment with The Field of Infinite Possibilities will empower you to craft a life that will truly bless you with joy, love, peace, prosperity and harmony.

"Understand that the right to choose your own path is a sacred privilege. Use it. Dwell in possibility."
                                   ~Oprah Winfrey

Oprah and others are connecting to a theme that all of us need to embrace; reclaiming your personal power that has been formerly given away to special-interest, government and financial groups.

In our past, individuals have become conditioned to look outside themselves for answers to the most pressing issues.

Now, with the the emerging new paradigm; it's about reclaiming and asserting your personal power and coming to terms with just who you are.

"When you live your life with an appreciation of coincidences and their meanings, you connect with the underlying field of infinite possibilities."~Deepak Chopra

"Don’t let the negativity given to you by the world disempower you. Instead give to yourself that which empowers you."
                                                                           ~Les Brown 

It's now time, for all awakening beings to move beyond the old paradigm of fear-based and other self-limiting beliefs into the light of a new day which is now dawning. 

We came into this life to be a part of this great galactic light-energy realignment. Open to and embrace your role in this consciousness expansion. Align and embrace the frequency of the new emerging paradigm.

Please enjoy the following video; Infinite Possibilities and pay attention to possible insights you experience as you do.







The Field of Infinite Possibilities, through the emerging paradigm, offers each of us the opportunity to align with this expansion of consciousness and to create our lives from an even higher perspective.

Here's wishing you insights that do incite you to change the manner in which you enable your world into existence; co-create a world of beauty, harmony, inner-peace and abundant prosperity for yourself! ~Dave Kenyon

Transformative Learning and Your Biocomputer

"New neurological research indicates that humans’ tremendous brainpower, even operating below ten percent of our capacity, results not just from biochemistry but from the brain’s impressive ability to function as a holographic data storage and retrieval system (a “hard-drive”) that employs different light angles to read information (“software”). This implies ... that the brain is a sophisticated holographic bio-computer that operates through electromagnetic frequencies. Not surprisingly, DNA has been shown to function very similarly. Human biology may thus be considered electromagnetic at the level of its manifestation from the torsion life-wave that sustains it. As Deepak Chopra has observed, human cells, far from being merely functional vessels, are in actuality electromagnetic fields of possibility and potential."

~Sol Luckman

 As we each look at how to improve the quality of our lives, understanding of how our bio-computer functions will enhance our potential for living the life we covet.

Remember, our model for effective change revolves around our ability to focus our intentions through the 3 corridors of experience we have control over: how we think about the intention; how we feel about it (our associated emotions) and how we act in relation to it.

"Transformative learning involves experiencing a deep, structural shift in the basic premises of thought, feelings, and actions. It is a shift of consciousness that dramatically and irreversibly alters our way of being in the world. Such a shift involves our understanding of ourselves and our self-locations; our relationships with other humans and with the natural world; our understanding of relations of power in interlocking structures of class, race and gender; our body awareness's, our visions of alternative approaches to living; and our sense of possibilities for social justice and peace and personal joy."

                                              ~Edmund O'Sullivan

"Transformative learning may be understood as the epistemology of how adults learn to think for themselves rather than act upon the assimilated beliefs, values, feelings and judgments of others. An epistemology of evidential rationality involves reasoning—advancing and assessing reasons for making a judgment. Central to this process is critical reflection on
assumptions and critical-dialectical discourse. Influences like power and influence, ideology, race, class and gender differences, cosmology and other interests may pertain."   ~Epistemology of Transformative Learning
                                                          Jack Mezirow

One insight I've been focused upon for quite sometime is; how enhanced  awareness of the relationship between the human bio-computer and how it best learns and adapts to it's experience is a transformational key relationship.

This relationship offers many and varied benefits:

• Enhanced ability to align with what you seek to manifest.
• Reduced frequency and intensity of stress-related episodes that lead to experiencing anxiety.
• Significant cleansing of mental models that thwart your intention. And many, many more.

Please enjoy and thrive on insights you may gain as you view this powerful video.

Knowledge of your bio-computer and how it operates may well pay numerous benefits as you explore the most important relationship of any; the one with yourself.

May your insights be plentiful and may they incite you to create a life that leaves you breathless, at times, and always smiling.

Tools for Transformation: Meditation - Opening to New Possibilities

My fellow travelers, welcome to today's dialog on employing a powerful tool for enhanced transformation; meditation.

"Meditation brings wisdom; lack of mediation leaves ignorance. Know well what leads you forward and what hold you back, and choose the path that leads to wisdom." ~Buddha

"If you can become a mirror you have become a meditator. Meditation is nothing but skill in mirroring. And now, no word moves inside you so there is no distraction." ~Osho

"But if we see ourselves as connected to God, or as reconnecting to our Source through meditation, then we can attract anything we want into our lives." ~ Dr. Wayne Dyer

So, just what possible new gateways to empowering insights might you discover through your intention to delve into or further into the practice of meditation? 

Perhaps the video below will shed further light upon the many benefits of engaging in a regular program of mindful meditation; please take a few minutes to explore any possible insights awaiting your discovery while viewing Meditation Magic.

 

Moving forward, what, if any, are your take-a way's on the benefits from you engaging in or an expanded focus upon the transformational tool of meditation?

Mindful meditation offers potential gateways to expanded consciousness; openings to our very nature. ~Dave Kenyon

 "Meditation helps you do less and accomplish more."    ~Deepak Chopra

“Can you see the holiness in those things you take for granted–a paved road or a washing machine? If you concentrate on finding what is good in every situation, you will discover that your life will suddenly be filled with gratitude, a feeling that nurtures the soul.” — Rabbi Harold Kushner

Sharing your gratitude for kindness given you and for gifts you receive is the very best way to keep your flow of abundant prosperity moving your way.

“Whatever our individual troubles and challenges may be, it’s important to pause every now and then to appreciate all that we have, on every level. We need to literally “count our blessings,” give thanks for them, allow ourselves to enjoy them, and relish the experience of prosperity we already have.” — Shakti Gawain

 Let's get our holiday gratitude flowing by supporting Nick's cause and acknowledging your thankfulness at the same time.

Nick, here's to you and all you do to make this world a better place for all!







“Feeling grateful or appreciative of someone or something in your life actually attracts more of the things that you appreciate and value into your life.”  ~ Christiane Northrup

Living The Law of One - Taking an Opening Look

Imagine, for a minute, what your life would be like if you internalized and lived from the perspective of The Law of One?

"We advise you to love not only your fellow man, but also the conditions of your life. Bear no resentment. Nothing happens out of order or by chance, and the great Law brings those very conditions in your life which you need for growth. So accept with love all that happens. Look for the lesson that has to be learn t from the experience." ~Neale Donald Walsh

The Law of One embraces unconditional love and acceptance for each as well as all of us.  

What  value-added might you discover from living your life from a perspective of unconditional love?  What value might your community enjoy?

"The beginning of love is to let those we love be perfectly themselves, and not to twist them to fit our own image. Otherwise we love only the reflection of ourselves we find in them."  ~Thomas Merton

What insights, if any, did you gather from this video? How might these insights incite you to consider living your life from a oneness perspective?

What changes in your associated thoughts, feelings and actions might you need to make to begin living in the oneness perspective?

“… there are no random acts. That we are all connected. That you can no more separate one life from another than you can separate a breeze from the wind.” ~from Mitch Albom’s book, The Five People You Meet in Heaven.

"Look out! Because pollutants can change us. And not just chemical and biological ones, cultural ones as well." ~The Last Mimzy
 

Enhanced awareness may act as your sensor when scanning the energies you are being exposed to; in terms of thoughts, emotions and attitudinal -biased pronouncements through news, government, political, religious and entertainment. We are consistently being bombarded by these manipulative messages designed to leverage control over and compliance by the general population.

"...So long as the people do not care to exercise their freedom, those who wish to tyrannize will do so; for tyrants are active and ardent, and will devote themselves in the name of any number of gods, religious and otherwise, to put shackles upon sleeping men."   ~Voltaire

We are moving, as a planet, away from this "learned-helplessness" model to that of an empowerment model. We individually and collectively are now coming into alignment with the empowering and emerging new paradigm of light; shining focused awareness of consciousness raising leading to greater planetary enlightenment.

"Somewhere along the journey of remembering who we really are, we may find ourselves in a very uncomfortable space, a void in which we realize that we haven't totally let go of our old beliefs, and on the other hand we have yet to fully plug into the new truths we have discovered. This awkward "place of mind" can bring on an internal crisis of uncertainty, instability, confusion, frustration, and a most unspeakable despair as the "dark night" sets in and makes its presence felt."

   ~Nicholas Schmidt

Now perhaps it's time for another segment of potential insights with your viewing of this next video; The Law of One.

 

Insights into improving your life experience most often do lead to incites of proactive thoughts, emotions and actions. Discover yours, lovingly.

Here's to your personal enlightenment and happiness.
