1-2-3 of Awakening: Awareness, Acceptance & Appreciation

We are awake and yet we habitually think that we are not. Thus, there is never ending wanting and desiring for something to feel better or more complete. The paradox here is that it is only when this idea pauses, stops or drops that we are truly free to experience what would be fulfilling. In this relinquishment, of the perpetual pursuit of the end all be all, awareness seeps in. There is tremendous relief as we awaken from this belief.
When this seeking and striving dissolve, we realize we are fulfilled & complete. Fearful grasping, pushing & pulling of life experiences ease and there is a palpable softening, an awareness and acceptance of all that is here. Demanding, striving and strategizing are replaced by a soothing simplicity that promotes transparency and authenticity rather than proving ones self.
Feelings of urgency, desperation, of unfulfilled longing arise and move through completely, no longer seeking, needing a person, place or thing to remedy them. Life is no longer a series of temporary failed fulfillments, but becomes a more fluid, experiential openness to all that is present. Each moment is fulfilling and complete in and of itself.

This 1-2-3 of awareness, acceptance and appreciation is synergistic in its ability to open the door to awakening in the midst of the most difficult experiences. Wether there be good, bad or ugly... human experiencing opens into truth revealing, ego unraveling, ever expanding adventure.

We rest in knowing that we are the conductor, the musicians, the music and the appreciative audience, the bluebird, the sweet song and the enchanted listener, the hearts longing, the beloveds answer and the eternal fulfillment.

There comes a sweet softening of self, a welling up of appreciation and an undescribable knowing that this has all been perfectly choreographed by you and I. A self created divine plan in action every moment, all for awakening now. For you to fully realize that you are blissfully free now, perfectly complete in this inherent realization.

So, precious one, flow from your natural self and rest in knowing that all that is truly needed is here for you now. Breathe into this...it is yours!

Rest fully in this knowing and appreciate the grace that you are, allow this ease in. It is you who orchestrated this whole dance...you and I...one and the same. Shall we dance this joyful oneness?

Sessions are extraordinary beyond words...laced with energetic presence, phenomenal grace and miraculous transformation. Many issues and limitations clear within one situation!

Balance, Beauty, Being and Beyond

Do you have moments when there is a pervasive peaceful stillness? When you are beyond what is definable or ineffable as Martin Buber explained. Yet, there is inner knowing that exists. Simply put...this is what you are. This is God. This is source.

Without the illusion that we are separate from God, Source or divinity, we are open to the direct experiencing of what we are. Many painful ideas and stories that we identify with simply drop within this spacious and expansive awareness.

This dropping of our suffering is ultimate freedom. We no longer feel the need to struggle with separated states of mind. Experiences come and go, ebb and flow and yet there is an sweet, intimate participation in the whole dance.

This experience is not ultimately better than that. It is all seen, felt and welcomed as reality.

Pause for a moment and observe your mind. Notice how it has fairly non stop judgement around what it likes and doesn't like and even hates.

Be amused at how stories take on such compelling twists and turns at times and how they almost grab you right out of your seat. The mind demanding you respond to the dramas accordingly. We pride ourselves in knowing what is accorded each situation. Judge, jury, hangman all in one efficiently sized box atop each of our bodies.

The What If Game...
What if this box atop our bodies gets too stifling, too limiting in its perspectives.

What if we consciously choose to play a different game...

like children often do, (before they are too heavily conditioned to what is right and wrong.) Mostly we would do this because we are bored with the same story replaying with the same results.

What if we pretend we can see the innocence or what is real in ourselves and in each other.

What if we see wondrous, magical child like qualities in each other. No matter how much the other has suffered and hidden his heart, we can still see them, really see them.

What if we can acknowledge the beauty in each person, to smile, say a kind word, even play with each other...joke, kid, hug, dance, share our cookies, like children do.

Imagine...
a world that is not based on who is most right, but a world of people and animals that can truly see each other. In the movie Avatar, she says "I SEE YOU" and she does really see his soul, his divine beingness. They also see this in their animals and trees.

In this game we are recognizing each others inherent divine wholeness, rather than playing out the old 'no win' separation game...I am more right (righteous) than you. Once we realize what we are, we see wholeness, the 'wholliness' that includes everyone, everything and every experience.

During this game, when you return to judgement, you return to suffering.

I invite you to playfully live this game and move beyond these painful forms of separation and perpetual struggle at the mind level. Live in the kingdom of the heart and soul, where we are all inherently innocent. Here, we can never do what is not God's will, for we are God's will, each and every moment.
Stop looking to an outer force to create the peaceful freedom that will only come through allowing the divine to look fully and completely through your eyes. Resistance to this is the source of all suffering and the manifestation of every ailment on this planet.

When we come home to what we are, suffering ceases. You may still fall down and skin your knee, as children do. Yet, you will

be so delighted by this new wondrous way of being, that you will run back to friends that will greet you with open arms, with eyes that can see you and words that will love you awake again. Children certainly have allot of this down, watch them.

Someone wrote to me yesterday, "You are one of those sunshine people, that I have seen a few times in my life."
Let's all be one of these sunshine people and see life through the light that we are.

Supporting Your Awakening

What is support to you?
Is it when you feel truly heard?
Is it when you are considered without having to ask or explain?
Is it when your needs are accounted for in the request?
Is it like a great shoulder rub that comes out of nowhere?

Whatever it feels like for you, it's always an integral part of your growth into wholeness. The most fundamentally potent form of support that we have is the awareness that we are source or God. In knowing and living from this, we recognize that we are plugged into what we most need...our own life giving, life expanding force. All this is within us.


We've been taught and conditioned to believe that we are dependant on an external source for our well being. An omnipotent external God, to which we must sacrifice ourselves in order to be atoned for. The premise is that we are guilty simply because we are here in a human body and we must earn our innocence.

This is a formula for perpetual suffering. The idea that we are separate from source is the ultimate lie which has been perpetuated by most institutions, communities and families.


This lie has fostered participation and dependencies on collective consciousness. As a result we have developed tremendous fear of breaking free from these paradigms. This fear keeps us from finding out who we are outside of these collective boxes.


Only a very small percentage of people at this point are truly experiencing what it is like to live freely beyond these collective codependencies...to expereince true freedom.


I assure you we do exist and we are forging a New Way of being. We are outside the norm of collective conveniences which have hidden costs to the heart and soul of every participant. We may feel alone at times as most people are not interested in stepping out their 'box' to play in a New Way. In this awareness, there are moments of sadness passing through as yet another person chooses to stay in undue suffering. There is also a built in feeling of joyful 'ok'ness and many, many moments refreshing unencumbered aliveness. No medications needed!


Reflect for a moment on a piece of history and the way it parallels aspects of a current Dark Age...from Rob & Cyndy Shearer.

'Columbus believed that the world was round. Everyone else thought that it was flat. In 1492, Columbus finally overcame the objections of the bigoted church leaders of Spain, who believed the world was flat because the Bible said it was. Columbus got the backing of Queen Isabella on the sly, behind King Ferdinand's back. Perhaps there was some romantic infatuation or dalliance. In any event, Queen Isabella pawned her jewels to raise the funds for Columbus' three ships and off he went. His epic voyage of discovery was one of the crucial steps in mankind's throwing off the superstitions of the dark ages.'


The current Dark Age is being fueled by more of an inner superstition. The voyage you are being called upon to forge is to return, realign and re-Source the truth of what you are. It is the only answer to our current Dark Age and all of the mounting consequences throughout our world. The evidence that we are in this Dark Age is apparent, yet all the outer forms of escape are also prevalent.


I wonder what caused Columbus to consider that there was anything other than what he was conditioned to believe?


Why would he risk being considered crazy and feeling tremendously unsupported?


What caused the Queen to give up her jewels for such a wild adventure? (OK, maybe it was sex...lol)


What do we need to take that leap of faith that Soren Kierkegard defined?

There is a saying...We are only as great as our support.

What kind of support do you need to realize your greatness?


What if the greatest support we could possibly find is within us and ...


That we are enough, when we realize we are source.


That like Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz realized...


You could always go home and most importantly...


There's no place like home.


That from this knowing we are no longer separate human beings, but rather we are unique expressions of source, each and every moment.


We are always innocent, guilt is a fabrication from a distorted fearful separated self.

We are liberated and must create from the magnificence which we are.


This is the plan Einstein envisioned when he said "you cannot solve a problem a at the same level of consciousness that it was created in."

The answers being called for reside within this New Way. The full realization of what we are.

This is not religious, this is not spiritual. This is not anything you can ever put a label, dogma or practice on. It is what you are!


Breathe this in now. Feel this freedom. Be this magnificence in all its simplicity. Live this glory and celebrate what you are. Appreciate all this freedom.


I support you in this...now and forever;


Yours in awakening...


Andrea

Practical Results...
'In my first session with Andrea, I was amazed at the precision with which she put her finger on the pulse of the issues I was grappling with. After listening to me describe a number of circumstances and concerns I was facing, she quickly identified the core issue I needed to address in order to move forward. A light-bulb went on! Andrea provided me an "aha" moment, in which I could see the dynamics at play underneath the external circumstances. This became a turning point in my self-awareness.
Andrea's gave me insight, as well as a concrete starting point for doing my own work. She was direct and challenging, yet kind. She empowered me with homework to do before the next session, including focused writing, personalized affirmations and breathing/meditative exercises. These activities kept me inspired and focused after my session, and became an additional doorway to awareness.

I was amazed at what was accomplished in my very first session with Andrea, and felt like a "regular psychotherapy" approach would have taken weeks or months to lead to the same level of deep insight -- if it ever got there at all!
I'm delighted with the rapid progress and growth in my awareness from my work with Andrea, and I highly recommend her to anyone who is ready to do their own work and experience a major break-through!

The New Emissaries...no path needed

'We are the ones we've been waiting for.' Hopi Indians. I am aware of an imminent call to be here fully, to break through any small sense of self, to be the strength and magnificence that we all are. Nothing else is enough. Hiding, holding back, playing in the less than game will only serve to increase the inner struggling with what is inevitable.


We all came here on this precious planet to awaken, to be the answers to our planets cries, to bloom, to shine and to be exalted through the essence of source. Each and every creature on this planet is an undeniable contribution to this knowing. Every human, fish, dog, ant, child, song, dance. Every expression, every form is the living expression of this knowing.


We now know collectively, that it is our time to awaken. Through countless lifetimes we have watched, as painful story after story has begun, been experienced and ended. These stories have one human need in common. A longing, a yearning for more than what one is already, to move beyond the struggle of humanness.


These stories are fairly empty of meaning. Why is this...because they are about seeking what will never fulfill this longing. At best there is temporary satisfaction. After the experience, we are back at square one, seeking for what will fulfill the longing.


Now we see everywhere the extent to which these endless desires to have our needs fulfilled have exploited our earth, our people, our children, our animals. When we see the Gulf Oil, the animals covered in oil, the economy dropping.... WE CAN NO LONGER DENY THE MEANINGLESSNESS IN THIS OLD PARADIGM.


Are you feeling this in your your soul?


Do you realize the implications of these old ways?


Do you want to open to a new way?


Then let go fully with me now. Breathe out the old unconscious paradigm on the exhale, breathe in Being and Living the Answer. Breathe out all those stories that have kept you hostage, struggling moment to moment, day to day and fully breathe in the freedom and the living answer which you truly are. This expansive freedom is the only answer to these old devastating dilemmas. You cannot solve a problem at the same level of consciousness as they were created in, Einstein.


These old unconscious stories can only be released from within you. This is the access point to authentic power. Breathe with me and know now that you are the source of all that is needed in every moment of your life. Stop looking to others, to escapes, to denial, to anything other than this true knowing of what you are. From this all will arise, within the simplicity of each fully lived breath. Everything else is playing out the illusionary games that always lead to unfulfillment, disappointment and now disillusionment.


We are the new emissaries, the ones we have been awaiting. We are the ones that become the living answer to our inner and planetary callings. We are the brave, the pioneers, the trail blazers of a new way. It is paramount that we awaken now as we are all needed. All of our uniquely phenomenal gifts are needed, wether they be the song that ignites the heart of humanity or the compassion that soothes the pain of all this collective suffering, or the words that ignite this new way. All our gifts are needed.


Holding back will only serve to perpetuate your suffering and that of your circle. In this moment you can breathe in fully the magnificent awareness that you are source and therefore you are enough!


My words come from your soul and your soul and your soul.
The last time I spoke of this calling, there were many tears and nods and realizations that they are this, we are this, there is no one else.
Yours for awakening;
Andrea
