Go With the Flow...: August 2017

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.

Essence

A friend recently quoted Patricia Albere, saying that we are 96% Essence and 4% ego/human persona.

Lately I have been regularly focused on tapping into my own Essence. For me this involves getting out of my head and connecting with something bigger, deeper, higher, and/or more peaceful than my egoic self. Recently, when I was feeling upset with a loved one and decided to center myself, I sensed a wiser part of myself saying "It is alright darling. Everything is fine. It is okay." A loving mother telling me that all is well. A Presence that was not phased by my being upset, that did not judge me nor react to the situation, but instead calmly stated that all is well. I instantly felt soothed and reassured.

This Presence/Essence comes from the core of who I really am. I can tap into it at any time. The more that I practice living from this, instead of clinging to the thoughts in my head (and related feelings), the freer I will Be. Everything truly is fine, right here, right now. And so it is.
