I always thought that embarking on the spiritual path would make me happier, that somehow I would suddenly become a person that was always able to avoid or solve problems. I don’t know what gave me that idea but nevertheless it was subconsciously there. It therefore came as a rude shock that even as I meditated, journalled and did rituals, I was still fundamentally the same person who had triggers and anxieties.

There is more to this world than meets the eye…

Did know that part of our brain’s job is to filter out the vast majority of information we are exposed to on a daily basis, so we can function properly? That’s right! In reality, we perceive very little of what is actually going on around us. In other words, there is an intangible reality that operates at all times, without us even being aware of its existence. Yet, that intangible reality has very tangible effects on our lives.

Take your thoughts for example, can you see them? No.

Do they exist? Yes.

Do they affect your reality? Very much so.

I used to spend a lot of time worrying about what others thought of me. Or acting, saying and wearing things that I thought would make people like me. Now most of the time I have fun, I can still hear people’s reactions to me but I don’t mind if someone doesn’t like me, or something I do. It’s ok and doesn’t scare me anymore

And I find it interesting how universal this fear is. A tremendous amount of energy as a society is spent on fitting in and avoiding judgement from others.

Many of us are aware that we are bigger than just our physical body. We can sense people standing near us for example even with eyes closed and when we haven't heard them approaching. Or we can sense the emotional state of a person when in their proximity. 

Many experiments have been made, and with every new advancement in quantum physics, more and more information points to the fact that at the core of all existence lies a pure energetic network that seems to intertwine in ways that construct our reality.

So often we are not aware of how we are giving our power away to unconscious influences of the past or the belief that our difficulties are caused by our environment. Empowerment is when we become the driving force of our life, when we reconnect with our innate power to move and shift out of difficult situations and through emotional states. Empowerment is about reconnecting with our divine nature and our ability to create. 

Sensations and understanding are deeply interlinked  And true healing comes when we start to understand and sense our true divine and galactic nature and the power that comes with that.
