What we think, we create
by Claudia Ferryman
People are waking up to find that they have been living their entire lives as something they are not. The recent trend toward individuals getting up in droves and quitting their corporate jobs is due to the fact that they no longer wish to live someone else's vision. They presently want to spend their lives working with like-minded people who share their goals, visions, values and beliefs.
Feelings of dissatisfaction are multiplying on a global scale. A life of accumulating material things, following external authority and deriving a sense of artificial power from external sources has proven to be a false existence. We are all looking for a truer anchor and have collectively embarked on a voyage to discover our inner authority. This inner authority is guiding us to our uniqueness and our unique expression of this uniqueness. We now understand that life is about the evolution of our souls, which is expressed through our distinct creative abilities. When we are manifesting our uniqueness, we experience a feeling of authenticity and of passion. And this passion creates a fulfilling state of mind -- one of happiness and contentment.
Our souls' journey has been warped by external labels. These have been conferred upon us by our parents, teachers and peers, and they reduce our self-esteem. Consequently, we spend most of our lives trying to rebuild our self-esteem. We have to identify these external labels, recognize their detrimental effect on our identity, and acquire the courage to peel them off, in order to reveal our true selves. "I am, I am, I am me."
Society needs to teach new ways to nurture each soul into expressing itself fully. Techniques that promote the understanding of intuition and ways to distinguish intuitive feelings vs. mental thoughts are key elements of this new education. Teaching the creation process, which is simply that every thought, put into words, creates deeds, will help people to understand that everything they experience in their life is self-created at some level. We must develop "creation feedback loops" that will give individuals direct tangible insights into their creation process so that they can practice and replicate the results. When we realize that we are all creators and come to feel the power of our creation, it will provoke many more to take fuller responsibility for their lives.
What we think, we create. Every day there is increasing empirical evidence of this natural law. It has been discovered that there are specific neuropeptides for each emotion we experience. These neuropeptides are released by the brain and they bathe every cell in our bodies. Thus, if you have a negative emotion, every cell in your body is immersed in this sensation. This is the reason why our bodies display a specific physiological reaction to each emotion. As we develop an awareness of how our bodies speak to us about our emotional states, we get better at managing our "state". As we get better at managing our state, then we also get better at preventing others from negatively affecting our state. We are constantly getting better, better, and better.
Furthermore, we will gain the understanding that each so-called obstacle, challenge, or problem is actually a lesson toward soul evolution. By progressing through the growing pains of handling these challenges, we will earn a chance to recognize ourselves more fully, thereby creating greater courage and self-actualization. If we do not embrace these hurdles, we miss a vital opportunity of learning from a soul evolution moment and thus continue to attract other obstructions of a similar nature until we break the pattern by learning the lesson.
To reduce the number of challenging lessons, individuals will need to learn how to recognize when their intuition is communicating with them. Our intuition does not usually speak to us in English. Intuition speak is manifested in metaphors, feelings, symbols, images, hunches in the shower or while driving, and dreams.
We can further develop our ability to be in sync with our soul journey by learning the dominant method of how our synchronous messages come through. They may arrive through people, places, literature, songs, or billboard signs. A life in "the flow" is about tuning our senses to the frequency of our souls' synchronous channels.
When we believe and recognize that there are unique synchronous messages for each of us, our awareness expands even farther, into a realization that there are indeed laws of absolute truth that guide our existence. These laws of absolute truth are numerous. Among them is the fact that when we give with positive intention we cannot help but receive in kind. This is known as the law of cause and effect, and determines consequences and outcomes.
Indeed, we are on the cusp of a violet age where we no longer need to experience who we are to know who we are! This is our opportunity to rejoice and bask in our identity as passionate, unique beings, with total realization that we are our own voice -- leading, creating, and believing. A force for good, defying the odds, stepping up to new outstanding heights and inspiring everyone we touch to be the same.
