Sacred Living-Feeling Good
3 Steps to Sacred Living
We
live in times of great intensity. As the intensity grows, the
importance of the sacred becomes unavoidable. Long-predicted by the
ancient Maya and other vastly under-estimated civilizations, these times
are daunting and yet filled with unmatched opportunity for self-growth
and awareness.
Sacred living is merely an
awakening to the sacredness and interconnectedness of all life – the
all-encompassing spirit of Life, Gaia, God, Holy Spirit that flows
throughout eternity. I define “sacred living' as a respect and reverence
for all living beings especially the self. This translates into actions
of grace, compassion and kindness for all life.
The
Big Bang ties us all together physically in coming from the same
material.The basic material of all life stems from the same kernel of
energy and condensed mass.
Many are coming to
see themselves as part of this energy, and hence intrinsically sacred.
Imagine looking upon a fellow being as a stranger or foreigner,
especially when that being is a human. It makes no sense. Yet, many look in the mirror and see a reflection of a stranger.
The sense of coming to know oneself is the gateway to sacred living.
Without self-love, we inherently view ourselves as foreigners and all
externality reflects what is within - therefore, everything outside of
us is perceived as threatening.
Sacred living is
about finding balance, safety and purity within one's own form, and then
seeing that externally in the world. Sacred living is really coming
back home. Sacred living is truly your birthright.
Three 'inspired action steps' I recommend for sacred living
1. Love unconditionally
part 1: Tell someone you love them. (the easy part!)
part 2: Spend at least 1 week twice daily standing naked in front of the mirror telling yourself “I love and accept you.”
Love, joy, happiness
exists in the space of stillness between thoughts of lack and fears. It
is always here in the now just waiting to be invited into your
experience and consciousness. Love is a constant essence and a constant
state of presence within your life. Don't wait for tomorrow to tell your
loved ones that you care. Today is all you have.
2. Feel your infinite nature.
Go
outside into your favorite place in nature and get as naked as possible
(barefoot is the minimum). Meditate on where your body begins and ends
and where you feel yourself within your body (Most of us hold our energy
and consciousness mostly in the head and upper regions). Feel the
support of nature around you and feel its beauty expand within your
being, so that you become one with nature, and nature becomes one with
you. If you can't go outside, find a flower to commune with.
You are way beyond what you thought you were. With God, you can paint the sky with any color you choose. Letting go
leads you to discover much more than you ever knew. The mind is in
every cell of your being. The heart transcends matter and goes beyond
you. You are an infinite being and whatever you think you are, you go
way beyond that.
3. Live inspired
Write a private letter to yourself – answering this question. What does living inspired mean to me? What would I need to do, be and have in order to live this way? What is stopping me from living my dreams? How many ways have I already started to live inspired?
You
are your own inspiration. There is nobody holding you back from doing
this, but yourself. Be in awe of possibility. Be in awe of expressing
your true essence. Be in awe of life....
