Boundaries...

Boundaries...
I was editing the first book that I wrote today and this really stood out. (getting ready for a re-publish:)

You see most people are going to talk about all kinds of shit but at the end of the day their actions are going to show you who they truly are.

I have worked decades on lining up my words and actions. I actually work on this every single day. Congruency is absolutely necessary for manifesting your heart's desires. Living from the heart means no lies, drama, false, fake bullshit from you or anyone else in your world.

Speaking your truth can be hard. We all got shit to do every day that is challening.

However, not living in alignment is going to be a lot harder than speaking up for yourself and trusting your intuition.

If you don't have your back why would anyone else have it?

You are going to have a lot more fun, experience deeper quality relationships and find the ultimate truth when you start trusting yourself enough to hold boundaries that other people cross based on their fears.

Be different.
Set boundaries.
Be conscious and recognize when things are not in alignment and take the proper action for YOU.

The UNIVERSE has your back especially when you take heart based action for the benefit of all beings everywhere INCLUSIVE of you.

Go LIVE CONSCIOUSLY and watch how things unfold for you. It will be beyond your wildest dreams.

Thoughts on how to truly live on Earth...

Thoughts on how to truly live on Earth...

A friend of mine recently shared this on Facebook and I thought that I must share it here. Enjoy the read as well as the contemplation this may lead you to practice.

When Einstein gave lectures at U.S. universities, the recurring question that students asked him most was:
- Do you believe in God?
And he always answered:
- I believe in the God of Spinoza.
Baruch de Spinoza was a Dutch philosopher considered one of the great rationalists of 17th century philosophy, along with Descartes.
(Spinoza) : God would say:
"Stop praying.
What I want you to do is go out into the world and enjoy your life. I want you to sing, have fun and enjoy everything I've made for you.
Stop going into those dark, cold temples that you built yourself and saying they are my house. My house is in the mountains, in the woods, rivers, lakes, beaches. That's where I live and there I express my love for you.
Stop blaming me for your miserable life; I never told you there was anything wrong with you or that you were a sinner, or that your sexuality was a bad thing. Sex is a gift I have given you and with which you can express your love, your ecstasy, your joy. So don't blame me for everything they made you believe.
Stop reading alleged sacred scriptures that have nothing to do with me. If you can't read me in a sunrise, in a landscape, in the look of your friends, in your son's eyes... ➤ you will find me in no book!
Stop asking me "will you tell me how to do my job?" Stop being so scared of me. I do not judge you or criticize you, nor get angry, or bothered. I am pure love.
Stop asking for forgiveness, there's nothing to forgive. If I made you... I filled you with passions, limitations, pleasures, feelings, needs, inconsistencies... free will. How can I blame you if you respond to something I put in you? How can I punish you for being the way you are, if I'm the one who made you? Do you think I could create a place to burn all my children who behave badly for the rest of eternity? What kind of god would do that?
Respect your peers and don't do what you don't want for yourself. All I ask is that you pay attention in your life, that alertness is your guide.
My beloved, this life is not a test, not a step on the way, not a rehearsal, nor a prelude to paradise. This life is the only thing here and now and it is all you need.
I have set you absolutely free, no prizes or punishments, no sins or virtues, no one carries a marker, no one keeps a record.
You are absolutely free to create in your life. Heaven or hell.
➤ I can't tell you if there's anything after this life but I can give you a tip. Live as if there is not. As if this is your only chance to enjoy, to love, to exist.
So, if there's nothing after, then you will have enjoyed the opportunity I gave you. And if there is, rest assured that I won't ask if you behaved right or wrong, I'll ask. Did you like it? Did you have fun? What did you enjoy the most? What did you learn?...
Stop believing in me; believing is assuming, guessing, imagining. I don't want you to believe in me, I want you to believe in you. I want you to feel me in you when you kiss your beloved, when you tuck in your little girl, when you caress your dog, when you bathe in the sea.
Stop praising me, what kind of egomaniac God do you think I am?
I'm bored being praised. I'm tired of being thanked. Feeling grateful? Prove it by taking care of yourself, your health, your relationships, the world. Express your joy! That's the way to praise me.
Stop complicating things and repeating as a parakeet what you've been taught about me.
What do you need more miracles for? So many explanations?
The only thing for sure is that you are here, that you are alive, that this world is full of wonders."
- Spinoza

Holding space...

Holding space...

As I watch all people of the world evolve, expand and contract I see so many opportunities to hold space. As a teacher of yoga, meditation, mindfulness, awareness and consciousness I am constantly reminded that so many people struggle with holding space for themselves. 

If you have any doubt about this, please observe the mental poison of media, the epidemic rates of anxiety and depression. The pandemic of fear. The reality, that despite our ability to connect to anything and everyone in the world with technology, many people feel more alone than ever before. 

You see, I am a space holder, it is the place of transformation. Space contains all that is known and unknown. It is in space that we are reminded or our potential. It is in the ethers that the TRUTH resides. It is here that one can move beyond limitation. The gateway is the INNER cosmos. 

The key to the door of your INNERstanding is your breath. 

Your breath is the single most powerful tool that you have in this physical realm. Your ability to modify your breath is the direct pathway to the intelligence and guidance of your SOUL.

If you would like to learn more about holding space for yourself, connecting with the guidance of your SOUL and facilitating greater INNERstanding then consider joining me for one of my free events on Insight Timer OR check out my upcoming online retreat Jan. 2-8th in collaboration with Hannah Levin.

This is a wonderful way for you to start to tap into the awareness that you hold the keys.

Elevation

Elevation

 

I was speaking with a friend last night and as we discussed a multitude of things my mind kept coming back to an aspect in her life that she shared. In this place there was friction. She felt it…I still feel it. The thing about friction is that it is an opportunity to be mindful of your true feelings. You know all that stuff under the surface that most of us don’t want to look at because it has been put into our mind and hearts that this is uncomfortable. 

The truth is, you are an ever evolving being and therefore it’s VERY important that you dive into all those things under the surface reaction. You see, the surface reaction, isn’t even really you. It’s who you have been taught to be. It’s how you have been taught to behave. 

When you consciously choose to stop BEing how others expect you to be then you can really begin to start HAVEing the life you truly desire because you are now taking full responsibility for your life.

When you feel friction, this is a direct arrow to a place where there is misalignment.

Misalignment is an opportunity for you to evolve, to grow, to step into your potential and live your best life. This arrow is directing you to living a heart centered life in collaboration with your Higher Self.

The thing about evolving is that you also have to be able to let go of what no longer aligns or resonates. Change is okay. 

It’s okay to let go of relationships, behaviors, feelings and so forth in order to step into that unconditional heart space.

If you “think” you are who you are, then evolution might not be for you. 

If you feel that you are not your thoughts but those thoughts are driving your reality, then it’s time to really look at how you feel about your reality. 

 

You cannot “think” your way into HEART.

 

You want joy? Then you gotta feel it and in order to feel it you just might have to mine through all that other dense shit in the way. That mining process is gonna take fire aka friction and it might not be comfortable but I KNOW that on the other side of all that thinking is your opportunity to EVOLVE to ASCEND and move beyond the limited perspective of that old narrative.

You see, you already know where the misalignment is. 

You have always had the ability to create the joy you desire. You have just been programmed to BELIEVE that if you actually listen to your heart then you are being selfish or that something will go wrong or people won’t like you.

People don’t like when they can’t keep getting the same charge out of you. People don’t like when they cannot get what they want. Nothing more, nothing less. When you change your energy, the energy of everything around you changes.

Choose to evolve because our entire planet is ascending and I want you to be a part of the consciousness that is the NEW EARTH. It’s not about money, control, systems, or mass population soothing. This New Earth is about personal responsibility, collective elevation, freedom, liberation for ALL. 

Look at the spot of friction in your day, life or problem…it’s here that you will find the fire of illumination just waiting to light up your life, ascend your consciousness and pave the way to that joyful beauty you desire to call yours each and every day.

 

Stay Illuminated,

Moon Bathing...

Moon Bathing...

 

Working in the Shadows

Today I was cleaning and listening…mostly listening to this thought process I was having about the full moon and how I love lying nude in the moonlight. You may know that I charge my crystals with the sun and the full moon like many crystal lovers. A little over a year ago I started charging myself with the crystals. Let me explain…

At the time I was teaching a lot about Shadow Work and of course was doing my own inner work. As I continued my growth journey I started thinking that the only reason that things in the dark seem so scary is because we are often unfamiliar with them. Fear, like a magnifying glass, takes that unknown and gets you to myopically focus on it with your thoughts and then it expands to something beyond its actual proportion.

At the time that I was thinking these thoughts, I realized that if I simply rested in the shadows, lingered in stillness then I would be able to see the light even in the darkness. This is how my moon bathing began and like my crystals, I FEEL different. I am charged by the Mother. This tapping into my own depths has allowed me to illuminate so many other aspects of my daily existence. It has also allowed me to walk with my shadows in compassion. More importantly, it has allowed me to rest within the Divine Feminine energy that I have always felt was lacking within me. I have realized that this energy was within me always but I was tapping into too much solar energy. 

Taking this time in the moonlight has given me the awareness that I don’t always have to be the doer. Actually, it has proven to me that the more I can get still and stay out of the way, the more that Source offers all to me effortlessly. My only action is to recognize and accept with grace. My responsibility is to attune myself daily and be mindful of what my feelings and thoughts line of with.

The next full moon I hope to inspire you to sit in the moonlight. Bask in the shadows…you will be amazed at all the beauty waiting for you there. You just might find a new level of illumination and awareness. Charge yourself in the darkness of the night upon the full moon and then look at how you SHINE. ✨ 

Much love, Akasha
