Soul Consciousness
One of the most significant shifts I have made in the past few years has been the shift to Soul Awareness, that is, perceiving myself as a soul EXPERIENCING physical reality rather than the physical body knowing it has a soul. It is definitely a work in progress as it involves perhaps one of the most profound rewiring’s of the mind/body and energy field that we do as part of the awakening/enlightment process. The great illusion that we are separate from Source is the big one to dismantle.
Most of us have read and understand the saying that “I am a spiritual being having a physical experience.” But what does that actually look like when put into practise. How do we really embody that, live that, and know that in every moment of our lives and especially when we feel at the mercy of this crazy world.
I am really a nuts and bolts girl. I like to know how things actually work in the here and now and how this can change a life for the better.
From my explorations it takes a lot of determination, commitment and constantly reminding myself that I am a being of light experiencing a situation, emotion or whatever it is that I am encountering and not a victim of these circumstances. It takes repetition to reprogram our systems out of the fear/survival based programming of this reality.
It usually goes a little something like this. I encounter a situation that triggers judgement, emotion, memory. Depending on where my consciousness is at, I react or respond also depending on the intensity of the trigger. As soon as I have recognised my reaction as such, I will process through any emotions that have surfaced if needed, so that the body can release any loads of memory that are linked to the trigger. Then, or at the same time, I will shift to working with the mind to bring myself back to the awareness of myself as Soul/Light/Love.
As soon as my mind shifts to this perspective, I feel calmer, I relax, my body lets go a little or a lot of any tension or contraction I was in. I find I don’t have to control so much of what happens (unless it is life threatening). But day to day experiences that get us wound up and stressed can be alleviated and moved through more easily by this switch in perception. It seems so simple yet it is so effective.
Here are some of the techniques and teachings I draw on to help me –
A Course in Miracles helps to dismantle the egoic mind “I ask the Holy Spirit to correct my perception and return my mind to the awareness of Love” There needs to be a willingness to release control of how you perceive a situation or person.
This affirmation works wonders also
“I am the being of Love, EXPERIENCING the feeling of …. Or this situation….”
Or “This is an experience that my soul is choosing to have at this time” What higher purpose could this have?”
Side note, this is not about avoiding or disconnecting from the human experience of feeling emotions. It is just a way that we can move through these more easily when we have been triggered.
