Welcome to my blog about transcending the self. Instead of using the mind to fix or control your world so that you can be happy, there is another way. This blog is about moving your awareness from your limited, egoic-self to your Higher Self in order that you can be the divine expression that you were intended to be.


Many of my beliefs are based on the books "The Untethered Soul" (T.U.S.) by Michael Singer and "Falling into Grace" by Adyashanti. These books describe the path of moving your awareness from the part of you that tries to make your life work (ie, find happiness, security, love...) to the part of you that Witnesses or Watches your life unfold and your reactions to your life. As you become more aware of yourself as the Watcher, and you let go of the energies of the lower self, you will be moving towards greater freedom.

So instead of struggling to make everything go your way in life, why not accept what is (release the need to fix or control people, situations or your mind), open your heart and surrender to That Which Created Life in the first place! In other words, go with the flow of life and watch the amazing miracle that you are blossom! Please join me in choosing to move beyond the limitations of the personal self and to live a life of freedom.

To get the most out of this blog, I suggest that you read the books. I also recommend the CDs by Michael Singer (see the website below). I post on this blog about once a week. If you would like to be notified by email each time I post please send your email address to donnamccullough@cox.net.

Happy Thanksgiving!

To paraphrase a quote from one of Michael's CDs: I am grateful for "the honor of experiencing life as it it."

Life is a beautiful gift that we have been given to experience...not to criticize or control or adjust...but just to experience.  For someone like me who is a big "planner" and a big "do-er", I find great freedom in realizing that I am only here to experience (and I can leave the planning to God!).  I am so grateful for the realization of this truth. 

On this beautiful Thanksgiving Day I choose to allow myself to experience all of it - the love and the fear, the "so-called good" and "the so-called bad."  Life will show up today as life will show up and I can either fight it or go with the flow! 

As I accept and then release any attachment to what I am experiencing (by moving my awareness to the watcher and releasing what I see with a breath) I am allowing life to change me and to grow me in ways that I may not even be aware of needing.

As Michael said in a letter "let go of all that you see in order that you may be in the One who sees all."
