On Christmas morning, I have always felt as though I were wrapped in love and comfort. Feeling safe and nourished, blanketed in hope and deeply satisfied. My cells sing out a wonderful extended ahhhhhhhhhhhhh, whispering sweetly."hallelujah , I am home". These feelings seem to be generated as a result of what one could call Christmas traditions. They come through on the notes of my own rituals and the combined effect of a community moving through their own personal traditions and creating a mass effect of love that touches each of us and open us further. When Christmas is gone, the feeling tends to go with it right? Back to the norm. Back to work. Back to the mundane.
NO THANK YOU. ENOUGH OF THE MUNDANE ALREADY!! GEEEEZ!!
I choose to be in the flow of Christmas morning all the time.
BUT HOW?
Firstly, Christmas morning is an inside job. It is a resonance that takes places in the minute spaces in each of the trillions of cells in your body. The good news is that it is definitely possible.
Secondly,
if your current model of life is not woking for you, then don't look within it to find more joy, vibrancy or abundance. It doesn't exist there or you would already have it. INSTEAD, look outside of that box. Be very curious of the people, places, nature and creations around you that seem to be thriving. What do they know? What have they already embodied that is spinning around in their DNA?
Thirdly, when you see this vibrancy around you in the form of great health, abundance of money, beautiful love relationships, beauty and enjoyment, say to yourself,
"Now that is for me". It is the quickest way to attune yourself to a model where this life essence that appeals to you, already exists. If you feel" less than" or "a victim of" or "in judgement of" someone else's vibrancy, it just keeps you stuck there in that old model, feeling that nothing could even change. BUT IT IS NOT TRUE. If it exists anywhere in the universe, than you have access to it too, even if you don't believe it. Saying,
THAT'S FOR ME" brings it in closer because you start to shift towards it on a cellular plane and new possibilities begin to form within you as a biochemical response to your big YES. In the end , you really have nothing to loose by saying, singing, or shouting, "THAT'S FOR ME".
Fourthly, as you begin to drift towards a new model of life, your body will go through some changes. BE THE OBSERVER OF IT and don't panic. When you say that's for me , you are giving a green light to the physical, to align with a new paradigm. Ask the body what it needs and don't overload it as it transitions. Let your body do it's work for you. There will be some physical transformation. For some people it will feel more intense and that's Ok. The more you are engaged in your own body, the easier and quicker you move through it, but doesn't matter. It's just energy . If the body is extra tired, then rest. If the body starts to detoxify and get congested, there is nothing wrong, it is just moving stuff out. Ask your body what it needs . Aches or pains may come up to bing your attention to a specific part of the physical that requires your attention. Treat the symptoms if you need to and let it unfold. You will find a different relation with the energy that has been in your body as you allow it to be known. It's just energy and that's all it can ever be.
Fifithy, LET YOU BODY SPEAK. Dogs growl when they feel threatened, they shake when they are cold or nervous. Coyotes and wolves howl. Animals let their bodies speak , so use this as an inspiration and make the sounds that your body is begging you to express. DO NO SUPPRESS SOUNDS. Laugh, growl, howl, scream, shake, shiver and play with all of it. EXPRESS through the body!! (P.S. you can always find a secluded place in the woods to let it rip).
Sixthly, PAY ATTENTION. Everything you need to support you in this new model of life will present. It could be a ticket to concert, a new food or supplement, a trip, a new friend, a new item of clothing in a specific colour . It could literally be anything but pay attention because it is presenting itself to you to assist you to make a cellular quantum shift so that you can be in alignment with what, not only is here for you but it is you!!
Seventhly (my favourite number), GO FOR IT!! DREAM BIG!! BE BIG!! This bigness comes from inside of you as an extension of the universe. It is not a bigness that minimizes or takes away from anything because it is not seeking for fulfilment. When you dream big, you become a huge vibrant STAR entraining everything around you to shine. you become the invitation to a party that humanity is
dying to be invited to.
Last weekend my daughter ,Jill and friend, Anatara, came over for a visit and together we leisurely browsed a christmas craft show called "a Touch of Salt Spring" in Sidney BC and later enjoyed an Alison Crowe concert in Victoria BC that blew my mind. During our time together, my cells felt lifted and filled with light , joy and warmth. Every breath felt delicious. On Sunday morning, I said to my friends, "it feels like Christmas morning ". In that particular moment , like no other time in my life to date, I knew beyond doubt that I could live like this all the time. I JUST KNEW that not only is it a possibility but it is happening.
ENJOYMENT is a birthright. ABUNDANCE is a birthright. LOVE is a birthright. Heaven on earth is here for us to enjoy. I'm all in. THAT'S FOR ME. Anyone else interested?
"People say that what we're all seeking is a meaning for life. I don't think that's what we're really seeking. I think that what we're seeking is an experience of being alive… so that we actually feel the rapture of being alive."
