Rising Above the Carnal

Following your gut is not something that anyone has to learn. It is innate. Tuning into the voice of truth within is more of a matter of being willing to do it. While it can be very challenging to take cues from your higher self, yielding to your lower desires can be costly.

We live in a material world and are confronted with worldly concerns, yet being in the world does not mean we have to respond to matters in like manner. It is natural to desire to be comfortable and live an enriching lifestyle. However, when your carnal desires or yearning for material gain outweighs or overshadows your ability to discern or quiet the God voice within, you end up falling for the okey-doke.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with wanting or working toward changing your condition for the better; but in doing so you must rise above your emotions and strong desires for material gain to the place where you can boldly try every spirit. You have a force and power within that gives you the authority to try every spirit to determine which one is true.

Trying the spirit means to examine judiciously and put it to the test to evaluate as to separate by way of examination that which is true and that which is false. It is about sifting out and pushing the envelope to see what something is made of.

Don't ever allow your carnal desires to stop you from going through the process of examining and trying the spirit. Likewise, don't allow your hope for something tangible in the material to blind you. Regardless as to how things appear, your gift will make room for you. When you turn to your higher self or that God within, wealth is inevitable. Yet, it is important to understand that wealth is not simply a matter of finances or your monetary condition. Wealth encompasses your overall health and well-being. So don't measure whether you have an abundant life or whether or not you are prosperous by how much money you have stashed away.

Are you happy? Are you healthy? Do you have joy in your heart? What is it that gives you joy? Do you have family and friends that support you? Examine your spirit to determine if you are true to yourself. Go after your dreams and know that they will come true. Elevate your mind because it is your higher mind that guides you in the process and gives you the power to discern which way to go.

Healing From Betrayal Trauma

Betrayal is a form of trauma that can cause profoundly deep-rooted trust issues with a lasting impact affecting relationships of all kinds, especially intimate ones. However, you can heal from the effects of betrayal if you are willing to do the necessary personal work. I cannot tell you it will be an easy journey, yet what I can guarantee is that your relationships will become healthier and happier, and your choices of who to engage in close relationships more whole. All relationships require a measure of trust and vulnerability. Intimate ones require the highest level of openness. Therefore, when trust has been broken, the price can be very hefty to the relationship because the first causality becomes trust followed by the unwillingness or inability to remain vulnerable. When betrayal happens in a relationship and trust is broken, it is extremely hard to gain it back from the person who violated the trust. Yet, it also becomes difficult to even trust others who had nothing to do wi...

DIGESTING THE ISSUES OF LIFE - A Metaphysical Look at the Stomach

Metaphysically speaking, stomach issues are a sign that you may be struggling with emotional and mental blocks. As you may be aware, behind every physical reality is a spiritual one and if there is something going on in your life on the material plane, there is an unseen reality that also plays a role. Physically you may be struggling to digest your food, may have indigestion, an ulcer, and/or other chronic or more serious issues with the stomach. Yet, understanding the root cause of the issues you are confronted with can help you get to a better place and most certainly help you to bring the issues to the surface to be addressed and healed. If you are confronted with stomach issues, then under the surface there are emotional and mental blocks that you may want to address. Emotional Blocks are repressed and suppressed unhealed wounds, injuries, and strong feelings from previous life experiences that have been left unresolved. And while sometimes...

Challenge Your Beliefs to Become Free

Happy Day Beautiful Souls, I write this to invite you to challenge your beliefs to become free or freer in your life. As I write in my book, The Beauty of Being Free , “Freedom is a mindset. No form of subjugation can contain a free mind, one that is conscious and aware. To break the chains of oppressions of any kind is to first break the shackles of mental bondage, which can color your perception of reality and greatly impact your ability to be a productive and consequential force in the world.” In some cases, our belief systems have become the mental shackles that keep up from experiencing and living our best life. From young, patterns of beliefs are developed often to help make sense of the world and everything around you. These beliefs are established from emotional attachments to perhaps parents, teachers, pastors, or other people who have been in your sphere of influence. Beliefs however can be empowering or limiting. What are beliefs and how do they come about? A beli...
