reclaiming our minds

As we begin to generate a more active brain chemistry and feel more alive with more capacity for feeling we can more accurately navigate our way through lives of our conscious choosing. Taking 100% responsibility for our own happiness is one of the most liberating decisions we can ever make.  Extricating ourselves from cultural programming and above all else the belief that suffering has a redemptive value we quit the role of victim and become more aware of how we dream into existence, co-create, attract and manifest what happens to us and around us.   The past as a treasure trove of memories and resources and the future as a collection of visions, possibilities, probabilities become a real  part of the moment we are experiencing.  We begin to live in real time rather than conceptual time.  No longer attempting to put right the past or project into an undecided future and instead inspired by the sense of what we are becoming, our purpose, we can make conscious choices  in the 'now' which generate actions, thoughts and feelings and eventually manifest into the physical reality of our desires.

Thoughts are things.  The scientists of our world who have actually studied physical matter have concluded that is is made of vibration which is affected by vibration.  Indeed consciousness gives rise to energy which gives rise to matter.  The flow of life is spirit into matter.  Our highest desires can inspire beliefs and thoughts which have an incredibly powerful influence on physical manifestation.

Connecting energetically with the earth refines our desires into wholesome and harmonious ones which bring true happiness and success.  And so we learn how to dream our reality into being.

There are some very definite positive mental attitudes we can adopt immediately that can transform the quality of our lives.

A Sense of Purpose

This links our day to day lives to our spirituality.  It is a way of channelling our desires in a constructive way that benefits ourselves and others long term. It can begin as a simple desire to feel good and if we don't have a definite purpose for our lives our first purpose can be to find a purpose! Our goals connect us to our purpose in life.  They need to be big enough to excite us and manageable enough so that we know we can achieve them.  Then we feel good thinking about them and working toward them thus enabling us to delay some gratification in order to experience greater reward in the future. This practice in itself significantly increases our sense of well-being and keeps levels of dopamine, the enthusiasm neurotransmitter, high.

Gratitude

Soon after waking if we can think of a few things or at least one thing we are truly grateful for it starts the ball rolling for the day.  When we focus on gratitude it automatically attracts more things into our lives to be grateful for and also connects us in an appreciative way with other people.  Choosing to think about what we want rather than what we don't want is a related practice.

A Commitment to Turn all Circumstances to our Advantage

When things fail to according to plan or 'go wrong' we decide that we will create something beneficial out of whatever has happened.  Not only does this create great benefits for us in our lives but it also gives us an inner confidence that no matter what happens, all will ultimately turn out well.   This attitude in itself can bring miracles into our lives.
