Nature Walks with Reiki

9/2/2020

0 Comments

 
​The benefits of walking in nature are numerous. Some of these benefits include the following:
-helps improve cardiovascular health
-assists with reducing stress and anxiety
-improves well-being and uplifting one’s mood and can be especially helpful when experiencing a traumatic life circumstance like a health issue, or the transition of a loved one or a relationship issue.
-can help decrease high blood pressure
-helps bring stillness to the mind
-grounding
-can assist with opening and developing one’s senses by observing the sights and sounds of nature
-feeling more connected to Spirit which also boosts creativity

With such benefits to the body and mind, walking in nature can also assist with speeding up the healing/recovery process. Being outdoors in nature brings clarity of mind. Especially when we let go of everything that may be on our minds for a while, and become aware of and observe our surroundings in nature. From the wind’s gentle breeze, to the rustling sound of leaves and the warm sun on your back. The brilliant colorful flowers, the sweet song of a bird overhead, the soft green grass and strong-rooted trees, all with their vibrancy and aliveness is something to appreciate. Taking a nature walk helps us to see our lives and experiences from a higher perspective. It helps us connect more deeply with our inner peace, our Spirit, that reminds us that “All is Well.”

I love walking in nature on a daily basis. No matter how I am feeling before taking my walk, I always feel more uplifted and renewed during and after my nature walk. I also have found that much intuitive guidance comes during these walks. When the mind becomes still, the inspiration (in-spirit) flows. And adding Reiki to a walk in nature boosts the intuitive guidance even more, since the Reiki energy helps us to connect more deeply with the wisdom of our Spirit.
​Incorporating Reiki into a Nature Walk
Nature Walks with Reiki by Maya Bringas, Holy Fire III ReikiI love walking along this trail regularly
I love to connect with Reiki on my walks. I have noticed that by doing so, I feel even more grounded, relaxed, peaceful, more in tune with Spirit, and it boosts creative ideas. Reiki nature walks are very balancing, grounding, healing and empowering.

Before I set off on my walk in nature, I call on Reiki. Though some parts may vary at different times depending on what I’m feeling Reiki guiding me to use (symbols etc.) at the moment, the following are typically the steps I follow.







​Steps that I Follow as Suggested Ideas for Taking a Walk in Nature with Reiki
  • I place my hands in gassho (prayer position) and ask that my personality/ego be set aside so that I am a clear and open channel for the Reiki energy.
  • I ask Reiki to be with me and flow through me during my walk and to guide, heal, and ground me. And if I have any stress or worries, I ask that it all be lifted away during my walk.
  • I place the Holy Fire® master symbol in the palms of my hands, repeating its name silently three times. I then do the same with the Usui mental/emotional symbol, and often add the Karuna I fourth symbol, and Karuna II third and fourth symbols as well. I then place all of these symbols in my chakras and all around me. I find that the Holy Fire® is very empowering, nurturing, grounding, soothing energy that quickens the harmonizing/balancing/healing process and strengthens the other symbols. It helps to connect deeply to our true Self.
  • Next I silently say the name of the mental/emotional symbol and visualize it on the bottoms of each foot and visualize a large image of this symbol in front of me. The meaning of this symbol in Japanese is to create a new habit. So it is wonderful with helping to heal old patterns, habits, and thoughts that are not serving our highest good and to create healthy new habits. It is helpful with balancing the nervous system and both sides of the brain and body (yin/yang). It helps with bringing balance to all areas of our lives. This symbol assists with releasing any kind of distress such as worry, fear, grief, and anger.
  • Using this symbol on nature walks can help bring greater levels of harmonizing and balancing to the whole body/mind/spirit and brings with it more calming and relaxing energies. I find it to be grounding as well.
  • I visualize a large image of the Karuna II third symbol (inner peace, being centered in the now moment) in front of me, visualize the Karuna II fourth symbol in the legs (grounding and manifesting), and the Karuna I fourth symbol at the bottoms of each foot (grounding, clarity of mind, harmonizing, manifesting).
  • Then I say to myself something like, “I surrender to the loving power of Reiki to guide me and assist me,” as I begin my walk.
  • I let Reiki guide me where to go on my walks. I will feel which way to turn and which path to take by feeling a pull in a certain direction. 
  • Silently in my mind, I often greet the trees, plants, flowers, etc., and thank them for their beauty, love, and healing energies.
  • As I observe and tune into the wonders of nature, I will often times invoke the mental/emotional and Holy Fire® master symbols again by thinking their names and/or visualizing them. Sometimes I repeat their names in a mantra like fashion. Or sometimes I simply think “Reiki.” This is also helpful to do if I notice myself getting distracted with thoughts. Bringing Reiki to mind, returns it to stillness and back to the present moment so that I return my attention to nature. I then give thanks to Reiki and the symbols for their assistance as I continue along my way.
  • At times during my walk, I place my inner attention on my feet, and visualize the mental/emotional symbol on the bottoms of my feet as I feel the bottoms of them grounding firmly to the earth.
  • I bring attention to my breath at times and breathe in and give thanks to the fresh air and my breath. I gently stretch my muscles and if I notice any achiness anywhere, I visualize the emotional/mental and Holy Fire® master symbol in that location. This brings soothing comfort, release and relaxation to that area.
  • During my Reiki nature walks, I take a moment to visualize the Holy Fire® surrounding and filling my whole body and this feels so wonderful!
  • As I tune into nature, I give thanks to the beauty that I see around me, and the songs of nature that I hear.
  • At the end of my walks, I feel refreshed and I give thanks to Reiki and to nature.

I do love my Reiki nature walks. They enhance my time in nature and deepen the relaxing, healing, harmonizing, and balancing benefits that nature has to offer.

​You may wish to incorporate these ideas and bring the loving power of Reiki into your nature walks. When invoking Reiki and/or any symbols, do what works for you. You can visualize the symbols, state their names, draw them over the body, or you may have other ways too. Follow your inner guidance and let Reiki lead the way on your walks! And have fun!

Awaken to Love

5/13/2020

0 Comments

 
I share below, an article I wrote for Mosaic Mind, Body, and Spirit E-Magazine. To read more interesting articles on various topics related to spirituality, you can also sign-up for their free e-magazine at www.mosaicmagazine.ca.
Awaken to Love by Maya Bringas
In A Course in Miracles, Jesus (the narrator) tells us, "You are at home in God, dreaming of exile but capable of awakening to reality” (T-10.I.2).

Jesus reminds us that right now we are safe in God (our Source/unconditional Love) where we never left. The world and bodies we see are just a projection of the mind. It’s all just a dream that we have separated from our Source. Our reality is that as an extension of God's Love, we are formless, Spirit, perfect unconditional Love. Only Love is real and there is nothing outside of us.
​
The Course teaches us about the importance of not making the dream real in our minds. With this awareness, we still do the same normal activities in our daily lives. We still enjoy the world. The change we make is at the level of the mind (cause) and not on the physical (effect). It’s about how we view the world and everything in it and what meaning and purpose we give to it. We can make it a happy dream or an unhappy one. Moment to moment each day, there are two ways we can choose in our minds what we want to identify ourselves as. We can see ourselves as Spirit sees us, as Love and One with All at Home in God (Truth/reality), or as the ego sees us, as bodies and being separate from others and God (dream/unreal).

By not making the dream real in our minds and choosing to remember our true reality as Love, we recognize that all is truly well and that there are no problems. How we see another is how we see ourselves and it also reinforces our belief in who we think we are at the deepest level of our being.

True forgiveness, (which relinquishes judgement and recognizes the wholeness and innocence of all of us, as perfect Love) is what A Course in Miracles teaches and it becomes easier to practice as holding onto grievances only brings turmoil.

“You who were created by love like itself can hold no grievances and know your Self. To hold a grievance is to forget who you are. To hold a grievance is to see yourself as a body. To hold a grievance is to let the ego rule your mind and to condemn the body to death.” (From Lesson 68 of the Course).

We can use whatever appears as problems that show up in our experience, as opportunities to practice forgiveness and to reinforce in our minds our true reality as Love. Whatever upsets us in the dream, has been projected to reveal to us the false beliefs we still hold within about who we think we are. We are not our bodies. So, instead of attacking the projection that was created from false beliefs, we can choose to forgive everyone and the projection which results in healing for everyone.

Implementing the teachings of the Course in my daily life over the years, has resulted in much inner transformation and deeper healing. As I began to see things differently, with Spirit's loving guidance and vision, I was able to let go of many old grievances. It has now also become an automatic process to practice true forgiveness, so that I don't get stuck in fear (judgement) and what is not our Truth.

When I notice myself feeling troubled, I pause, take a step back and just observe. I recognize that I was feeling this way as a result of slipping back into thinking with the ego’s thought system of fear which I did not want, rather than Spirit’s thought system of love. I then make the choice for love once again, which undoes the belief in separation. I hand-over whatever is bothering me to Spirit and ask Spirit to help me to heal the root cause of the condition that created it in the first place (which is always the belief that we are separate from our Source). It is important that when we notice ourselves judging, to not judge ourselves for doing so, but instead be kind and loving to ourselves. I also find it helpful to remember that the thoughts that arise in the mind are just that. Thoughts. They are not who I am. I can observe them without attachment and let them go.

I then envision all involved (another person and/or myself), as the radiant Light and Love that they are. I remember that (on the deepest level of our being) that person is me and that we are the same Spirit, and One in God’s Love. This really helps and works quickly to dissolve any upsetting feeling. Sometimes I even giggle to myself at the whole thing, about how the ego tries to make everything so serious and real.

By forgiving everything and everyone, we don’t make the dream of separation real in our minds and we save ourselves much time and unnecessary suffering. We awaken to our reality of love.
In Oneness,
Maya Bringas

Staying Centered to Spirit during Times of Challenge

4/7/2020

0 Comments

 
During times of challenge, it is even more important for us to be centered and grounded to our inner Spirit. With the many shifts and changes we are all experiencing in our daily routines and lives at this time, our ever-present true Self--our Higher Spirit Self, the calm and quiet presence within--is always there to teach us, lead us, and show us the way. It is during times like these that it is vital to  listen to and follow the guidance of Spirit, our Inner Teacher of Peace.

This is such an opportune time to commit to and deepen the cultivation of the practice of presence in our daily lives. In regards to the coronavirus pandemic, yes we each take the necessary precautions to keep ourselves, families, and others safe and healthy, and do what feels best and comfortable for us in the outer world.

​At the same time, at the level of the mind, our inner world, we can choose how we look at things and what we would like to focus on. We choose what we want to listen to or focus on from outside sources and what we communicate and express, and also on what we choose to focus upon from within as well. And we can look at it all with compassion, love, and understanding. We can move through this global experience and each and every one of life's experiences (there really is no difference) through presence, peace, and with Spirit.
Staying Centered to Spirit During Times of Challenge by Maya Bringas

Spirit is readily available to support us at all times and in all ways. There is no problem that is too big or too small and Spirit recognizes that all problems are really the same and that there is always just one solution. LOVE.

There is a lovely lesson (# 21) from A Course in Miracles, 
"I am determined to see things differently." We can always choose how to view any situation, problem, person, the self, or anything. We can look at it through the vision of Spirit (love) or through fear (ego/judgement).

When there are times that I observe that I am not feeling complete peace, I remind myself of this statement from A Course in Miracles. When I remember that I can see the particular situation differently, choose how I want to feel and at the same time I release any judgement in how I am feeling and what is occurring, a shift occurs right away. The weight is lifted when I choose to see it all through love instead.

By being willing and determined to see things differently, we open ourselves to Spirit to gently take us by the hand, and lead us to seeing things differently, through peace, love, and harmony. We no longer choose to feel stuck. We can ask Spirit to help us to see whatever is causing us any distress, through Love and divine Truth. As we do so, judgement falls away and we remember once again who we, everyone, and everything truly is. Perfect, whole, complete, divine. That is what we are.


This is truly a time of transformation on the planet when we all have the opportunity to whole-heartedly make the choice to stay anchored to our true Self/Spirit, to release judgement and replace it with compassion for ourselves and all others, and to be truly helpful. Let us make the choice to stay committed to living our magnificence!

Blessing the Mind, Body, and Water with Unconditional Love and Mother Mary

1/28/2019

0 Comments

 
While sitting in quiet stillness/meditation some time ago, I called upon the Divine Mother, Mother Mary, to connect with her loving energy. During that time my whole being was infused with beautiful, divine, radiant, sparkly pink light. Like pink diamond light. It was simply divine, blissful, loving, peaceful, and uplifting. The energy has always been experienced as such whenever I have connected with her divine energy. During that particular meditation and deep experience with this divine pink light, some inner guidance from Mother Mary came through as well, as to how to use this divine light of unconditional love to nurture, bless, and support the mind and body. And also, how to bless water (drinking water, bathing water, bodies of water) with divine unconditional love. I now share these simple methods with you which are very beneficial for nurturing body, mind, and spirit.
Blessing the Mind, Body, and Water with Unconditional Love and Ascended Master Mother Mary, by Maya Bringas
A Course in Miracles, Maya Bringas, Ascended Master Mother Mary
Mother Mary is an Ascended Master and represents and is a symbol of the unconditional love of the Divine. She is available to assist anyone and everyone for assistance, guidance, and support. One does not need to have any specific spiritual or religious beliefs to call upon her. Unconditional love is open to all! Representing unconditional love, her energy is always gentle, deeply comforting, soothing, and uplifting.  On a deeper level, when we connect with the essence of the Divine Mother, we are connecting with the loving, nurturing mother, the divine feminine energy, that resides within all of us. This essence is already and eternally a part of us since the essence of what we are is divine unconditional love. Mother Mary assists with all issues especially those related to healing, self-love/divine love, forgiveness, grief, and self-empowerment. To read more detailed info about the support she offers to mankind, and a little about some of my earlier life experiences and how she had assisted me, you can read an article I wrote a couple years ago, “The Healing Power of Mother Mary.” Click here to read.

You can also call upon Mother Mary for additional support and assistance, if you so wish, when implementing any of the methods mentioned below. Simply call upon her in your mind and she will be there with you to assist in connecting with the energy of unconditional love and aligning to the love that you are. For example, when bringing in the divine pink light into your body (as mentioned in the exercise below), you can state and affirm in your mind something like, “Thank you Mother Mary for assisting me now in infusing my body, mind, and whole being with the divine pink light of unconditional love. I feel great joy and gratitude as my mind, all the cells of my body and every part of me, and all my thoughts are filled with and aligned to the divine unconditional love that I AM.” That is just an example, you can modify the words if you like.      ​
"Divine Love energizes each of the cells of the body. It heals mind and body. Love is the energy that heals all fear, judgement and suffering. It is the living force that can heal the planet and the entire universe. Source is unconditional love. This Divine Love is the source of all healing and it is a part of all of us as we are not separate from Source. Love is what we are.
It is our true, inherent essence."
Energizing, Blessing, and Aligning the Mind and Body to Unconditional Love
Visualize/sense/intend in your mind, with your eyes closed, that the divine pink light of divine unconditional love is filling all levels of your whole being (body, mind, spirit, all dimensions). You can visualize the light of divine love flowing from above into the top of your crown energy center at the top of your head, and slowly filling your whole body from top to bottom. You are energizing and nourishing every part of yourself with unconditional love. Visualize the light of unconditional love filling the cells of your body. All the cells of your body, all your organs, and every part of your body, mind, and your whole being is energized with and aligned to divine unconditional love. Spend some moments enjoying this time of quiet inner stillness and FEEL every part of you aligning to and immersing in unconditional love. Perhaps you see the pink light also extending outwards around you. You can sit or lay down in a quiet space where you won’t be disturbed for some time to do this exercise. Spending even a short while doing this exercise each morning is a wonderful way to begin your day feeling empowered, uplifted, energized and grounded to love. You can do it throughout the day as well, especially if you feel you would like an extra boost to keep your mind/thoughts centred to unconditional love and to bless your body. See yourself as energy which holds the vibration of unconditional love wherever you are.
A Course in Miracles, Maya Bringas
Blessing/Energizing Water
Drinking Water
Holding a glass of water, visualize the water being infused with the divine pink light of unconditional love. Visualize/intend that all the water molecules are being energized with unconditional love. Then enjoy drinking your glass of love-infused blessed water which blesses your body and mind. I also do this when I drink herbal tea. You can do this with your children's drinking water as well and with food. And also for watering your plants and the drinking water of animals and your pets. They love it too!

Bathing Water
While taking a bath, take a moment to visualize the pink light of unconditional love filling all the water molecules. Intend that the water cleanse and bless you on all levels (physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually).
  

Other Water Bodies
Visualize the divine pink light of unconditional love filling the oceans, rivers, lakes etc. When you sit by a lake for example, visualize the light and unconditional love energizing all the molecules of water. It then also blesses all the various life forms that inhabit the lake. See rain and all water in this way. Water is so abundant on the planet. It is so important for both body and mind and for all life on Earth. "Utilize water as a conduit of unconditional love to nurture and bless yourself, all life, and Mother Earth."
Blessing the Mind, Body, and Water with Unconditional Love and Ascended Master Mother Mary
I really enjoy using these simple and very effective tools daily. I always feel bliss, inner peace, comforted and uplifted by doing so and grounded to this divine love. It also helps to clear the mind and brings stillness and calm to it. Enjoy using these spiritual tools too! If you have children, you may like to show them how to use these empowering methods as well. Feel free to share in the box below how these tools are working for you.

I See You

1/18/2019

When I look at you I See me. I See your Light and so I See the Light in me. To See you is to recognize myself. The Light we share. The Light as One. I See the love that is your spirit. It's who you are. What you are. And as I See the beauty of your spirit, I affirm the beauty that is my spirit. For we are no different. We are the same. The appearance may differ, but the Light, the Love within, could be no different. I See you for who you are. And so I acknowledge who I AM.

Our identities may differ, but we are not identities. We are formless, united with the One. One Heart, one Love, one remarkable Divine Light. Let us soar in our united true form. Past all illusions, higher and higher. Lighter we become, immersed in the One. Beyond time, beyond space. We are eternal in the One. Bliss is our nature, bliss is our right. Oh how amazing it is to be this simplicity. No struggle, no fear. Just pure delight. In joy to be and simply be free.


Home is here. Home is within. For the One everlasting shining Light is what we are in. Happiness, joy, love, and peace. That is what we behold within. In Oneness in Source forever we dwell, let us remember this well. For this is where we are, this is our Truth. May we simply be and set ourselves free.
Inspirational Poetry by Maya Bringas, Nonduality, Enlightenment, Awakening, A Course in Miracles, Inner Peace
When we experience the world through the true Vision of the Higher Spirit Self, we experience life with deep meaning, purpose, and from the awareness of who we really are, which is divine love.

Love is What Heals

12/1/2018

0 Comments

 
The heart is the gateway to your True Self. The divine heart of the One Source that resides within us all, knows only Truth. It does not question, it does not seek. It simply knows. It listens in silence, it speaks with strength, and it loves with every pulsating beat. No restrictions, no reservations. It simply extends and flows, generously unhindered.

The divine heart seeks not approval, for it knows what it is. It knows only unconditional love. It embraces all and invites love within. Love is always the answer, no matter the question. By truly loving the self, you become a pillar of love. Sadness and grief, worry and despair, uncertainty and fear, dissolve when touched by the love you hold within. And no matter what is experienced within one’s life experience or in the physical body, when there is unconditional love for the self, any inner suffering is always transformed into peace. 

Tuning in daily to the divine heart is essential. The physical vessel’s natural, vibrational, default setting is to the frequency of divine love. It resonates wholly to love. When aspects of the physical vessel, become out of tune/balance, whether it’s experienced in the mind, the physical or energy bodies, a return to love is what brings it back to its natural frequency and experience of well-being.

Whatever method/therapy/form one uses for healing, the underlying essence at the heart of all true and permanent healing is love. Healing is release from fear and occurs at the level of the mind. Sometimes people wonder why healing in some circumstances is temporary. One’s sense of well-being may not seem to last, or perhaps one’s symptoms/health condition may be gone for a while and then reappear. We have free will of what thoughts we choose to believe. Sometimes a person may ignore the inner voice of love, and not yet be willing to permanently release former unloving thought or behavioral patterns, therefore resisting fully embracing love’s presence. In such instances, there is a return to identification with separation and the false self. One might not be ready to release unforgiveness, guilt, judgement etc. Therefore, distress/symptoms may reoccur to get the person’s attention that an internal shift from fear to love is required.

In other cases, a person may practice unconditional love, with symptoms alleviated or disappearing completely, while the condition may or may not disappear. The body doesn’t know the divine plan for the soul, but the heart/Spirit does. It is therefore important not to judge what’s happening in the body, nor blame nor be critical of the self. Release any expectation of a specific result. Inner peace and well-being is what healing provides and is possible no matter what’s happening in the body. Being gentle, patient, forgiving, and loving with the self is the divine heart’s guidance. When there is a willingness and commitment to choose love, you can trust and know that the love of the divine heart will always take care of you and keep you well.

Differentiating Between Intuition and the Ego

11/1/2018

0 Comments

 
Our intuition is guidance from the Higher Spirit Self. The mind has two parts/thought systems. Spirit is one and is the voice of love. Spirit knows only our divine Truth that we are perfect love and that only love is real. The other part of the mind, the ego, is illusory. The ego is not an entity nor a thing, but rather just the idea that we are separate from our Source. Its thought system is fear-based and is totally flawed as we are not separate from Source. The ego is the inner critic/false self which judges everyone and everything. Abundance, unity, and wholeness are part of Spirit’s thought system. Lack, separation, and limitation are part of the ego’s thought system.   

Since the part of the mind we choose to follow at any given moment effects how we perceive ourselves, others, and the world, listening to Spirit’s guidance (our intuition) enables us to experience and enjoy life from Spirit’s true vision of peace, love, non-judgement, harmony, and freedom.
​

How do you know if specific thoughts and ideas in your mind are guidance from Spirit or the ego? When they are from Spirit, they are loving, gentle, kind, and uplifting in nature. Any guidance that Spirit offers always result in positive outcomes for our well-being and anyone else concerned. Spirit gives us solutions on how to forgive and eliminate fear and judgement, and brings us clarity. We may feel a burst of joy when we receive inspiring ideas. If the thoughts and ideas are unloving, judgemental, or condemn anyone including the self, then they are from the ego.

The guidance received from Spirit may not always necessarily be what one wants to hear at the time. If there are expectations of what it should be, to match what you think you want, this is judgement and a control mechanism of the ego. If Spirit’s guidance is then ignored, it may lead to some confusion and doubt.

If unsure if the guidance is from Spirit or the ego, you can ask for clarification from Spirit and wait awhile. Let go of thinking about it for some time and to clear the mind, trusting that Spirit will bring you the clarification in divine timing. When we spend time being in silence and the mind becomes still, the intuitive guidance comes through clearly. Also, Spirit’s guidance will most likely stay the same a few days later, but that from the ego can change, even often.

We have so many thoughts that arise in the mind each day. Each moment, we always have the choice which inner voice to listen to. When I made the choice to listen to and follow only Spirit and have stayed committed to doing so everyday, the voice of the ego became much weaker. Like a muscle that gets stronger when we exercise it, when we are dedicated to listening to and following our intuition, the stronger our communication with Spirit and it becomes our clear, dominant, guiding light. ​

Living Your Life's Purpose

10/15/2018

0 Comments

 
We are all an expression of Spirit. The way that the Higher Spirit Self expresses through us on the level of form (in the physical world) is unique for each person. From the highest perspective, our primary life’s purpose is the same for all. This purpose being to undo the belief in separation from Source/God (duality, separation/ego consciousness) and awaken from the dream/illusion. On a secondary level, we each also have unique ways that Spirit expresses through us. Your being in the world is a blessing to all. You perhaps may not realize this, but it is so. We are all connected. One mind, one bright shining Light. One in Source. Perfect, innocent, whole, and complete. You are so needed in the world and are fully supported by Spirit.
 

When we let Spirit, our inner teacher of peace, be our guide in our daily lives, and we trust and follow the guidance of Spirit, we align to our life’s purpose (primary and secondary). Spirit guides us, shows us, teaches us, and brings to us, the tools to light our path and bring us exactly to where we need to be within ourselves. We just need to ask for this assistance and be willing to surrender and trust. And when the voice of the inner critic/ego surfaces, which always leads us away from our life’s purpose, we have the choice to not listen to nor follow its fear-based thought system, but follow Spirit's thought system of love instead. When the thoughts of the ego are just observed, it becomes easier to detach from them and not make any of its ridiculous beliefs real in the mind.

Spirit knows only divine Truth and what we really are. When we ask Spirit to guide our life’s purpose, the way it is then expressed/manifested through us, is always aligned to what is for our highest good and soul’s evolution. This may not necessarily look like what or how we think it should be. If we place expectations on or try to control how we want things to be or what we think should manifest, this is a form of judgement and creates resistance to our alignment to Spirit and allowing our true life’s purpose to manifest with ease. Thinking this way is thinking with the ego and it's system of judgement. However, when we whole-heartedly surrender to Spirit to guide our way and release any expectations, the ego unravels further and our true magnificent self shines through and takes lead. Spirit can reveal to us and help us develop wonderful talents/gifts we hold within that we may not have even been aware of. Spirit also expresses through each person in the best way/form that is a benefit to others as well. Since we are all connected, what benefits each person individually, naturally extends to benefit all in one's outer world.

In my work in spiritual guidance/counselling and with Metatronia Therapy®, it has become evident of the various ways that Spirit chooses to divinely express through each person. It has been quite wonderful to see! As clients I work with learn to follow the divine guidance of Spirit, and undo the ego’s fear and false beliefs of doubt and worry, it has been a joy to witness how this helps them to be more open to receiving divine blessings and greater flow and align deeply to their life's purpose (primary and secondary). When we follow Spirit, we allow inspiration (in-spirit) to express through us and assist us to be the instrument of peace that we truly are.

You may not know where you are headed, but when you hand over everything to Spirit, you are in the best of care, to guide you to what’s best for you each step along your path. You free yourself to enjoy the adventure, knowing that you have opened the door to receive many divine gifts each moment along the way. A few examples of how I’ve seen Spirit express through some of my clients include:  through music, art, teaching, helping Mother Earth/animals, working in the healing arts, business or other types of careers, and in a variety of many other ways. Whatever the various forms of expression may be, when we allow Spirit to take charge of our life’s path and purpose, we live aligned to our heart’s true calling with divine ease, harmony, peace, well-being, and joy.

The Power of Stillness in Conversation

The Power of Stillness in Conversation, by Maya Bringas
There is great power in the quiet stillness within. I was recently listening to an audio lecture by Eckhart Tolle, that reminded me that we are truly helpful to others and ourselves when we remain in our place of inner stillness/presence, whenever we have conversations with others. It seems to be human nature, that when one person in a conversation is speaking, the other may be thinking about how to respond rather than letting the mind be still and fully present. The listener brings the mind out of the now moment, and listening with the ego instead of presence/Spirit, becomes focussed on the future response.

When the mind is still, any thoughts/words that arise from the part of the mind where Spirit dwells, rather than our own mind, is always most truly helpful. Sometimes no thoughts/words arise. In any case, there is always an underlying energy of peace, whether the form of Spirit’s response is through words to offer another or simply stillness. Words are but symbols anyway.

In any situation, whether it be for example, having a conversation with a friend, or a more challenging conversation with someone who is triggered by or acting from an internal unhappiness or upset, whatever the other person is communicating, listening with the non-judgement of Spirit is important. There were some challenging conversations I had in the past where I was at a loss for words. Afterwards, I would often be self-critical for not speaking up for myself or knowing what to communicate at the time. I later came to the realization that in such situations, others were just projecting their own unconscious beliefs about themselves and nothing really had to do with me. We are not responsible for the behavior of others, but are for our perception, and our response (be it verbal or just within the mind). And not making the unreal/illusions (the world and what happens in it) real in the mind. With that insight from Spirit, and a change in perception to seeing through the various forms to the true innocence in all, it was liberating to release the self-judgement and not take things personally, and become more the observer, or awareness, in conversations.
​
We don’t need to know what to say or do, when we let Spirit take charge. We can let go. I find this very comforting and freeing when I remind myself of this and each morning I ask Spirit to be in charge of my thoughts, actions, and day. We don’t have the best answers, but Spirit always does. When we listen mindfully with Spirit, it changes the way we experience conversations. When we are in our place of inner stillness, Spirit can then fully express through us. There is no attachment to outcomes nor a need to have others understand our views. There is no ego involvement. It is important to see each person that comes into our life experience, as the perfect, whole, innocent, divine light that they truly are. Everyone with the same source of wisdom and tools within. In another type of scenario, if you are in the company of or have a conversation with someone who is going through a difficult time, the best gift you can offer is presence. Spirit may or may not offer words for you to verbalize or ideas to act upon. When you join with Spirit’s peace and you perceive the other in his/her true perfection, the peace and well-being extends to that person. All minds are joined. That may be all that is needed to be a truly helpful support in that moment.
Published in Sibyl Magazine: For the Spirit and Soul of Woman, October issue. 

The following is a beautiful passage from A Course in Miracles. I have a copy of the quote printed and on my fridge, and it is a wonderful reminder that all is taken care of when we let Spirit, our Inner Teacher of Peace, take charge.


"I am here only to be truly helpful.
I am here to represent Him Who sent me.
I do not have to worry about what to say or what to do,
because He Who sent me will direct me.
I am content to be wherever He wishes, knowing He goes there with me.
I will be healed as I let Him teach me to heal."

You Are the Light

"No need to hasten, no need to be quick. Just let all unfold naturally. You can rest and know you will be your best, for out of the silence emerges your True Divine Self.
Oh so bright it shines! Brilliant, dazzling, the Light leads the way. You need look no further, for the Light is within. And from the silence, the answers, solutions, and guidance comes in.


See ye as Light. There is nothing else. Simple and True, for all you do. Shine! Shine! Shine dear One! Do not be afraid to let yourself glisten. Emerge, be True. You are amazing in all you do.

Will you not recognize now, that you are the Light? Will you not accept the Magnificence of who you really are? You are so divine. So unconditionally loved. Will you not make this True for you?
​It is your Truth. LOVE. Let yourself be showered in the eternal rays of Source’s divine light. The light nurtures you, supports you, and loves you always. Now is the time, to put all aside, and embrace your Truth. Your Love. Loved you are. Love is what you are. And Love is your eternal Truth."
