Understanding Your Instinct

You now have an opportunity to learn more about how your physical body actually functions and communicates with you. You may think that your thought is in command but it is not. Your physical body is the wise one, it's just that the wisdom is not linear as in thought. It is immediate in the instant moment that you are in.

Your physical body communicates in physical feelings and the cornerstone of physical feelings is instinct. There will be some simple homework here for you to discover more about your own instinct.

Greater Benevolence Between The Mind And Body

I began to tell you last time about our physical bodies reaching out to us in new ways and I'm going to say just a little more about that today. Because our physical bodies are attempting to reach us it will be a valuable thing I believe, for us all to do something from time to time. It may seem a little strange to you but I have found it to be a way to create a link between our conscious minds and our physical bodies that provide a greater sense of balance and a union between the mind and the body which our cultures do not always encourage.
It is very simple and that is this - I recommend you take your hand - either one, whichever you like and place it right below your neck with your hand extended so that your thumb is right below your neck on one side and your fingers right below your neck on the other side and then just move your hand down over your body until you get to your solar plexus and then pull your hand away from your body. This is to be a physical gesture moving down your body like that as I said and away from your physical body once you get to your solar plexus. If you want to go down a little farther that's fine but no further then just above your belly button.
There is a reason to do this and I want to suggest that you do this at least ten or twelve times every day very slowly and if you'd like you can do it five or six times - whatever feels right to you. Remember always with the gestures going down, never up. I'll explain why in a moment. This gesture - and it's best done with your bare hand on your bare skin but if that's not possible then it's alright to do it on your clothing - this gesture encourages your energy body to move down into your body.
Do you know that in our world there's so much fear and anxiety or at least distraction because we have so much to do that very often our energy bodies are just barely tethered and are almost really trying to get out and you will see this, those of you who have such perceptions can see this light hovering above the physical body of a person - with some extension of that light into their head or neck and sometimes down to their chest and at other times it might be completely in - especially when you are relaxed or doing something you enjoy.
It is important to allow your physical body to feel the light that is part of your immortal personality that lives with you here. When you make this physical gesture moving down your body it is a conscious thing so your mind is involved and yet you speak to your physical body in its own language which is physical touch. Your physical body has its own language. That's why when you try to tell your body something with words your body doesn't necessarily react well and you might even feel uncomfortable physically because your physical body wants to be touched gently and kindly.
This gesture that I mentioned before will help that to happen because it is something that your physical body knows your mind approves of because you are directing the action. So this is what I recommend. It is a way to make contact with your own physical body in ways that feel good.
For those of you who'd like to you can also start the stroke with your hand on your shoulder and move down your arm towards your hand. About the time you get to the back of your hand then move your hand that you were stroking down your arm with away from your body. Remember when your hands are moving down your body like this they are in contact with your body when they are going down but when you move your hands back up they are in the air at least eight to ten inches away from your body.
That way your body knows that the intention is to invite your light body, your immortal personality, your soul - whatever you like to call it - encourage it to come down into the physical body to give it strength, support and the love of Creator which the physical body so thoroughly deserves. I feel that you will find in time greater relaxation in your physical body for doing this. Remember do it slowly and gently just as you might stroke a beloved person that you know or even a beloved pet - very gently and lovingly without any agenda beyond passing on love and encouraging a good life. And on that note my friends goodlife to you all and good night.

Your Dreams Are Announcing Your Coming Fulfillment

You have all noticed lately that there is a experience you're having which is quite unusual and that is that in your dreams you are experiencing a level of intensity that is not always frightening but is startling. Many, many of you are having this experience and I felt it was important to bring it up.
The startling thing is how physical the dreams are. There is a merging now of consciousness that might sound a bit alarming but this is only because there has been so much speculation and research done in many communities and that is that what you have known as the link between what is called the unconscious or the deep body rhythm and your conscious - meaning what you are aware of - is coming much closer.
The deep body rhythm has to do with why your heart beats, why your blood moves in your body, in short things that happen that you don't consciously do. Oh granted some of you might be able to speed up your heart beat intentionally or slow it down but this is done for reasons other then I would go into here. Still many of you now are experiencing a level of physical experience in your dreams that is so real that when you wake up there is every bit of feeling for you that this is a physical thing your body will be in reaction to - is a physical prompting and the experience of the physicality will be something that is new to you.
In the past you might have had this experience when experiencing a nightmare or perhaps an unusually intense dream but this is different. This is not typically such a unsettling experience and that's why I want to talk to you about it.
Your physical body is bringing itself to your attention not only in your day to day waking life but in your night and early waking stages life. Why, you might ask, "Is something changing? Is there a problem?" No, no. It is that it is time now for you to be aware of the sacred nature of your physical body.
Many religions and philosophy's because of a misunderstanding of the physical body and its processes and other times simply because of an attempt to interpret these processes have jumped with the best of intentions for their times to some conclusions that I believe are not entirely clear and that is that in the teaching I've received - and in my experience is true - is that the physical body - all physical bodies of all beings on this planet is a sacred creation.
Creator has deigned to create these bodies for all of us that our immortal personalities, also known as our souls, occupy. Mother Earth contributes her body to make up these bodies and when our souls depart the bodies quite naturally return to Mother Earth. This is something we can accept, at least philosophically, and yet now what is going on in our experience is a reminder of the sacred nature of physicality. Because there is so much about physicality that we don't know there is a need for us to know. So the deep rhythm of our physical nature is reaching us in new ways.
I will say more about this as time goes on but for now I'd like you to be aware that these experiences in your dream time are nothing to be afraid of. Rather for some of you they will fill in for parts of your life that are not being fulfilled. For others they will help you to wake up to your spiritual capabilities and for still others they will inspire you with new ideas or applications of ideas that are needed to bring about fulfillment. Our sacred physical bodies are attempting to reach us in this way now and it's all about fulfillment.
Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

Clarity For Decision Making - Part Two

I hope you've had a chance to begin working on your list that will help you to define and make clear to yourself the difference between what you think you want and what your physical body speaks in its physical feelings of these things.
What I recommend is that you take out your list now and you look at your original list of what you want, what you felt you need and so on and then you look at your remarks as to how your physical body reacted and reorder the list - write it back over again see.
Look where your physical body had the most comfortable reaction - don't judge the list, just look for the most comfortable reaction. Perhaps your physical body relaxed and felt comfortable when you said something. Perhaps some of you even felt warmth in your physical body. Those are the things to order at the top of the list and then where your physical body, when you said something, felt discomfort - those are the things at the bottom of the list. Discomfort would include tension but something like say itching for instance - unexpectedly having to scratch some part of your body - that would be somewhere in the middle just for an example but the most discomfort, tension and ill at ease feeling physically in your body - what you define as being ill at ease - tightness or pain - that's to be at the bottom of the list. Again, just write in down according to that. Don't jump to conclusions.
Now after you've completed that rewriting of the list, your list will probably be in a different order at least partly, and you will see that some of the things you really think you want and might be able to justify as needing are at the very bottom of the list and some of the things you thought perhaps were only mild wants or desires are at the top of the list. Don't move those things that are at the top of the list alright - let them be at the top of the list because that's your physical body telling you that these things are desirable and very possibly things that you can acquire in some way because your physical body not only tells you that physically they're desirable but since your physical body is involved in the creation of your reality that your physical body can draw to you the experiences that will allow these things to occur in the most benevolent way.
Now look at the list and see - there were some things that you first wrote on the list that seemed very important indeed and when you look at the list now and see them down at the bottom it makes you feel confused. Pick one of those things just to practice now and what to do is this - get another piece of paper out. Write that thing at the top of the paper the way you wrote it on your list originally and I want you to write it in at least three different ways or more if you like, restating it - alright - just restating what it is that you want or need, whatever your thought was about that thing.
We're not looking to perfect it mentally but if you can get it in a way that you feel is more clear of what you want but is that thing that you originally wrote about, that's what we're looking for. Two or three different ones would be fine - descriptions of what you want - see - but you can write more, alright. Then we're going to close up that piece of paper for a time and put it on top perhaps or with, maybe underneath the other list and cover that up and put it away for a day or so.
Then not unlike the last time, take the list out the next time. It can be a few hours later or a day or so later, whatever you can do, whatever's convenient - take it out and look at that piece of paper. Either cover up the top thing that you wrote down that is the copy of what you originally wrote on the first list - see - or if it's a separate piece of paper you can fold it over so you can't see it - see. Then read off the items that you wrote below it, just read the first one and notice how your physical body reacts - the same way you tried in the first read off and make notes.
You may find that the rewriting of this desirable thing has other actions in your body. Maybe everything that you read, one thing at a time making notes of how your physical body reacts afterwards, maybe that will still be uncomfortable but maybe because of the rewriting and getting clearer one of the things or more will have a good feeling in your body.
What we're looking for here is to synchronize your mind and your physical body clarity. It is not your mind teaching your body. It is rather your body teaching your mind. I believe and have discovered the truth of this that our physical body actually presents us with physical evidence - our physical feelings - to demonstrate to us what is good for us in any given moment with the most benevolent feelings and is guiding us very often as to what is going to work out well for us.
Get to learn the feelings in your body that are benevolent. If you have a tight and uncomfortable feeling this may not be the best thing for you to do. If on the other hand you have a warm or relaxed feeling this may be a better thing that you can do and may be successful sooner and opportunities can be more easily created.
Your physical body is the connector to Earth and all that is on it and it will give you physical evidence by the way your body feels as to what can work in the easiest, smoothest and most benevolent way and very often in the quickest way. Your body will thus instruct your mind on the creation of physical reality in this way.
I hope you find this homework effective and helpful and use it as a tool when you are in doubt about how to pursue your life in the most benevolent way.
Goodlife to you all and goodnight.
