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.

resist the urge to fix

This week I have noticed and resisted the urge to fix situations that stirred up inner discomfort.  In a couple of instances I chose to accept what was happening in the moment and then witnessed and released my feelings about the situation.  One of the situations resolved itself without any effort on my part.  In the other situation I ended up finding the guidance that I needed, again without effort.  I guess this is what Michael is referring to in the analogy about us being on a planet...spinning in the middle of nowhere...worrying about the most insignificant things. 

Imagine, all of the planets, stars, galaxies...working in perfect order and harmony without any direction from me!!!  Could this be true in my life as well?  If I let go more often and resisted the urge to fix would my life flow as smoothly as the planets revolve around the sun?

It does not make sense to worry, control, figure it all out when everything unfolds according to some bigger plan anyway, does it?????
