Choose your own adventure

Visualise yourself in a movie theatre. You are watching an absolutely fantastic movie. It is intriguing and exciting; complete with drama, suspense and romance. You are glued to the screen and totally engrossed in the characters and the story they are projecting.
Now think about your own life and imagine your life is the screenplay.
Could you accept that you are creating your own reality, just as a producer directs a screen play?
It may be difficult to see life as a play especially when everything around us seems so real, tangible and solid. In effect reality is just a word. It is a place where we have parked our physical bodies. It is a place where we experience human emotions so that we may learn, grow and evolve. What if this is not real? What if you had a tiny glimpse that real is a projection of your mind and just like the movie theatre described above you are playing out the parts of each of the actors.
If you can envisage your life as a play (or even if you cannot) you may like to consider which character you are today? Are you the worker, the child, the adult, the cleaner or the cook? Are you the dramatist, the injured patient, the divorcee, the grief stricken aunt or somebody else? Who are you today?   
In your chosen reality you can believe in what you want to believe in, you can project what you want to project and you can understand, grow and evolve in whichever way you choose. You can consciously create exactly what you want so that you are neither part of the whole nor an individual subject to the external events around you. You are the director and you choose whichever part you wish to join and those you wish to opt out of. This is your reality so go ahead and choose your own adventure; write your screen play in any way you wish.
MEDITATION
the blank screen
     Sit down in your living room, switch off the television and dim the lights. Take a moment to breathe, relax and let go of the day and anything that may be impacting your life. Start by staring at the blank television screen in front of you and as you relax allow yourself to acknowledge you have the opportunity to create any reality you wish. As thoughts come into your mind include the parts you want and discard those that you don’t. You are the writer, the producer and the actor so choose whatever you wish for your blank screen today. This is your play and just as there are different movies you can choose so too there are multiple realities you can live depending on the screen you decide to watch. 

 
EXERCISE
  1. Next time you watch a good movie feel how your body responds to the characters. 
  2. Sit quietly and think about your life as if you were an actor in a play and you were directing all the other actors around you.
  3. Now turn on the television (or movie screen in your mind) and tune it to a blank screen.  Start by visualising the reality you wish to create. Do not be limited by what you think is real.  This is your play you can develop it into anything you wish. 
  4. Engage your mind in this reality, decide on the elements you wish to include. Are there some you would like to keep and others that can pass you by? 
  5. This is your play. You can do what you want. You are not subject to the events around you, you are the director. 
  6.  Go ahead, choose your own adventure and remember, as the observer nothing is as real as it seems.

You are what you eat

Right now we are reaching a vibrational awareness where our understanding of food will change. As our bodies change, food will change. It is no longer what you eat but how you eat. 
This is not a health kick or an organic push, nor another diet or fad this is something very different. This is the new way of looking at and appreciating food. Last month’s blog (Wish for what you want) stated that time is speeding up which means our bodies will crave foods that respond to a faster energetic system. You will want to gather speed with the way you eat, not by eating faster but by understanding energetic consumption.
There are no rules with energetic consumption. Sometimes you will need to eat less and then to eat more. You may be attracted to foods by colour and texture rather than taste. You may even be attracted to foods by sound. By becoming consciously aware of what you are eating you will start to hear, see and feel the energy of the food you desire. It does not matter what you eat as long as you want to eat it. It is time to throw out the schedules and look again at how your body consumes fuel (i.e. energy).
EXERCISE
Energetic consumption
1. Think about what you are eating right now and how you are eating this.

2. Consider the energy or vibrational content of each item of food you are consuming.

3. Remove preconceived ideas. Do not get caught up in what you think is healthy or unhealthy as the vibrational content of food may be higher than you think.

4. Take the piece of food (or think about the food you would like to consume if you do not physically have this in front of you) then feel the energetic connection with this food. Is it vibrating physically and energetically within you? Locate the place where this is vibrating and identify how it feels for you. Become aware of the energy of the food (or drink) you are about to consume and discover how it connects with your body. Some things will have low energetic connections while others will have whole body connections. Anything that does not have an energetic link you may choose not to consume. Experiment with different types of food and remember, try to break down your eating patterns, try to escape from your current beliefs and allow energetic eating to take place.


5. You do not need to charge up your foods, you do not need to worry about ‘junk food’ vs healthy food, you just need to consider the energetic content of what you are eating and if it is vibrationally matched or ‘feels’ right consume this.


6. When you are practiced you will also be able to consume food energetically rather than physically. For example, if you feel hunger (which may be a belief rather than a physical reality) you can consider the food you are attracted to and energetically consume it without actually eating it.


7. The vibrational content of food is a complex thing, which is why it is not possible to judge the value of food by what you currently understand it as. For example you are craving a mass produced chocolate biscuit. You may think it holds no food value however this biscuit is vibrating with an element of your physical (or energetic) body. This vibration may be coming from the colour of the packaging, the sound of the food as it is made on the factory press, the person pouring the ingredients, the smell as it is placed in machines or, the feeling of joy you get from consuming this piece of energetic vibration. 

8. The vibrational elements of food are unique to each item and to each individual. The key is to let go of preconceptions and allow your body to feel, experience and know what is right for it to consume energetically and physically at this point in time.


8. Energetic consumption might sound complicated but it is just another tool to break down your current perceived reality and introduce new parameters to live within.

Wish for what you want

Things will change very quickly this year. As time speeds up and you trust yourself more, you will learn that your thoughts will become projections of your reality quicker than ever before. The universe responds to every single thought you have so be conscious that as a thought presents itself in your mind this will manifest into your reality.
It is no longer ‘watch what you wish for’, but wish for what you want...every minute of every day. Wish for what you want and watch how fast this will come your way. As the translation between thought and reality is occuring so much quicker you need to work with this in its most positive form. The universe will respond to every single thought so if you feel doubt then your reality will shift with you. Trust yourself and adjust your thoughts so that your reality is exactly what you want. As you learn to be present the moment you think about something you are bringing it forward into your reality.
BECOME DEFINITIVE
Define your thoughts so they can translate into a clear precise reality. As soon as you have doubts or try to plan how something is going to happen you split your reality into all the variables you may be considering so that it is confused and fragmented.  Be clear and precise with each and every thought and this will come back to you as reality.
EXERCISE
Wish for what you want
  1. Be aware of your thoughts.
  2. Think carefully about what it is you want.
  3. Become conscious of subtle differences and changes in your thoughts as this will shift your reality.
  4. Trust in yourself to know that if you let go of your fears and worries you will be doing exactly what is right for you, your path, for the world and the universe.
And finally, be grateful. When your new reality manifests remember to be grateful for each and every subtle change that occurs.


An aside: Food is relevant. This is the fuel for your body and helps with the physical manifestation of your reality. As time speeds up your body (mind and emotion) does not have time to catch up to the lag if you put slow foods in it. You need to find the right foods which give you energy to move through shifts in reality and awareness at the rapid rate that they will be occurring.  More on this in the next blog at the end of February.
