Resurrect Yourself


Happy Easter. It seems like a perfect day for resurrecting! The definition of resurrection: 1. The act of rising from the dead or returning to life. 2. The state of one who has returned to life. 3. The act of bringing back to practice, notice, or use; revival.

This definition seems fitting, as here in North Idaho we have had a very wet, chilly spring. It snowed this week! The sun is out, the birds are singing, shoots are sprouting up. Life on earth here is being resurrected.

Many of us are experiencing quick and ever-changing realities as shifts are taking place on profoundly deep levels. We are being called to expand ourselves in ways that we only dreamed of, not so long ago.

This includes all levels - physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual. We are being called to let go and shed old ways of being, feeling and thinking to move into new alignment with the adjustments of the Earth and the changes in our world. These last couple full moons have propelled us forward and toward higher perspectives. We are taking action and seeing things become manifest, ideas we put forth long ago and in the moment. It is crucial that we understand the link between our thoughts and feelings so that we keep these shifts moving in a positive and healthy direction. The pathway is through the body.

The work of inner growth is for ourselves and for each other, if we are to create abundant peaceful and happy lives. In order to move smoothly on this journey, and with one another, each of us must cultivate a positive relationship within our selves. Learning how to manage our energy so that we can navigate these changes with grace and ease is the key. This takes courage, patience, and trust that we are being guided with all the support we need. How we accept this guidance is through trust in the benevolence of the universe, and by getting our egos off the controls.

Guidance comes from connecting with our higher selves, that place of truth within ourselves and ultimately the truth of who we are, our unique gifts and contributions we are here to offer in this lifetime. We are not victims. We are powerful beings, guided by the love and light within us. Taking time to nurture those gifts, to water the seeds of our being, to shine light from within outward through awareness and insight - these are what enable us to live the lives we are here to live.

When we let the ego run the show, we are causing separation, anxiety and harm to ourselves. We are blocking creative energy and our ability to hear what our guidance is presenting to us in terms of opportunities to manifest. It’s time to awaken to the synergistic magic of the symbols that offer wisdom and a pathway to our higher purpose and service.

Imagine living outside the confines of the illusion, of beliefs and ideas that limit our spirits. By being in harmony with yourself, you are in harmony with all that is. And the path is clearly seen that lies before you. There is no doubt, no fear. Only pure Light and that Light is what guides you to something higher that yourself, something more blessed than what your ego could conjure up. You unblock that channel to your knowing, to your ability to receive the information that is coming in, to the questions you ask. The answers are right there in the openings that present themselves. It is a matter of opening your heart up to hear or see those answers and having the courage to step through the door into the unknown.

Core Belief Restructuring, www.luminousepinoia.com offers a way to connecting us with our highest selves, tools for managing and maintaining inner balance so that we can live with ease and in a way that our Spirit is guiding our vessel, versus the ego. Many of our beliefs limit us and disempower us and keep us small, with the illusion of security and safety. Each of us is a creative expression of the Divine and we are here to bring our best selves forward to shine and assist one another in living in our highest potential. Our lives have sped up considerably over the last several decades and in order to keep up we must learn to slow down, to do more than just ask. We slow down so we can hear the answers that are in front of us, supporting us in our forward movement. The way to ‘keeping up” is to stop, connect with our bodies and listen to what information or message our bodies are giving us. What many of us do is get so busy, we disconnect from our bodies, because of some discomfort. We have to remember how to use our bodies to work for us. We do this by letting the spirit be the controller and not the ego. We do this by cultivating patience and courage and a willingness to know the truth within ourselves, the essence of who we are. We are so disconnected with our bodies, many of us, that we miss the answer and we keep asking the same questions trying to jump the same hurdle and knocking it over and over again. That is the ego, and the ego is what causes us to trip up, our fears, doubts, beliefs. It is time to release those old beliefs to make room for your essence…for the flower within you to bloom, you also need space to let it grow, freedom from suffocation and repression.

Take time today to allow the resurrection to happen. Trust that you are in the right place, within yourself. Make space to be nourished and revitalized. To let the light in and illuminate your own light within. Now is the time to wake up!
