Neuroplasticity happens when connections are made across the neural network in our brain. Essentially, our brain creates super-highways that it travels quickly in response to outside stimuli. Thought patterns that are repeated often create massive highways that the thought travels on. The more the thought occurs, the more it will occur.

One of the most effective ways to reprogram the mind, to reformat the consciousness, is through using affirmative statements. I share with you examples that you may find helpful should you wish to use them to assist in reformatting the thinking mind.

Land gracefully

Keep fresh before me the moments of my high resolve, that in fair weather or in foul, in good times or in tempests, in the days when the darkness and the foe are nameless or familiar, I may not forget that to which my life is committed. Keep fresh before me the moments of my high resolve. ~ Howard Thurman

Coming home with the elixir, after a soul-altering experience, requires consciousness, attention, and care. You’ve been changed, yet the world you’re returning to has remained much the same. Like an airplane coming in for a landing having sailed over oceans, deserts and forests, if the pilot brings consciousness to the landing, it can be graceful, even though the craft is hitting solid asphalt. Returning home from a powerful inner and/or outer journey, may seem like the time to let go, but this stage takes as much consciousness as the rest. To make your re-entry as smooth as possible, go out of your way to be gentle with yourself as you integrate slowly back to the ordinary world.

Mantra ::
I am a citizen of both heaven and earth: I soar high and land with grace.

You’re In Great Company

Breathing in, I see all my ancestors in me: my mineral ancestors, plant ancestors, mammal ancestors, and human ancestors. My ancestors are always present, alive in every cell of my body, and I play a part in their immortality. ~ Thich Nhat Hanh

Those who have made the biggest impact on the planet, in addition to feeling extremely passionate, felt resistance, too. Martin Luther King, Abraham Lincoln, Harriet Tubman, Joan of Arc, Sacajawea, and Marie Curie are but a few. Every hero and shero in history has had moments of self-doubt, even paralyzing fear, before doing the courageous act that became their legacy. They felt the fear but did what they were called to do anyway. For this reason, you need not be detoured when you bump against uncertainty. In fact, doubt helps to chisel the ego out of the way, which is key to accomplishing a mission of merit, and becoming a channel of grace a higher purpose can move through. Know that you are in great company, and when you are ready, you’ll get up and go, like the great ones who came before you, upon whose shoulders you now stand.

Celebration and/or integration
You are on track
There is strength in numbers, you are never alone
Self-love is needed
Be in harmony with Self

Mantra ::
Like the heroes before me, I feel the doubt, and follow through anyway!

Law Is Not Justice

Published December 19, 2021 by tindertender

Rules that are not fair.

“Let the jury consider the verdict,” the King said, for about the twentieth time that day.
“No, No!” said the Queen. “Sentence first – verdict afterwards.”

The situation Alice finds herself in is patently unfair. No-one should be judged, convicted or serve a sentence prior to the evidence being heard, but this is the situation Alice finds herself within. This could be what is taking place in your world. Unfair as it may be, someone wants to judge you before they know you, convict you before they understand your side of the story, and they most certainly have not examined any evidence. Nevertheless, they wish to judge.

As Alice so bravely does, you must speak up and say it is unfair and wrong. It is not right for you to be judged, but another person wishes to do so. Unless you speak up, there could be very strong consequences. When you are told to be quiet and to tolerate the judgements being made about you, you are urged to speak up against injustice and object to what is taking place.

Your opinion of yourself is what is most valuable. You can state your case clearly, with strength and power, and doing so will help you remember just how very strong you are, how very admired you are, how worthwhile and decent you are. You’re worthy of respect, fairness and kindness. If you are being treated poorly, speak up! When you do so, the spell will be broken and people will see that your side of the story is well worth listening to. Never allow another to steal your self-worth!

Someone may have the authority to impose the law, but the law, or the rule is ready to be questioned. Following the law, even though it is unjust. Condemnation without knowing the full story. Being judged by people who do not know you or have a biased view. You may be judging people you do not understand. Be sure to have a fuller picture, and avoid condemnation and judgement. Be discerning but be sure to be fair and just.

Lead the Way

Published December 18, 2021 by tindertender

Be a leader – Show others how its done – You can help others!

Alice led the way and the whole party swam to the shore.

Alice takes on a new role – that of a leader. She did, after all, create the problem that they are all experiencing, albeit accidentally. She is the one who thinks through what has happened and tries to calm the creatures about her – even though that doesn’t always go right. And, she is the one being who takes charge and leads them out of the pool of tears and onto land. Just as you must do right now.

There is an emotional situation about you and it is affecting not only you, but other people, too. And, they are finding it hard to make their way back to steady ground. They are floundering amidst this sea of emotions within the present circumstances. It is up to you to lead them to the shore – to bring them back to the land. Now, this means you are to help everyone calm their emotions and come back to a more grounded, clear and stable place.

Even if you have been very emotional yourself, it is time to show leadership, set for the shore and help others make it there safely, too! Show everyone how its done – demonstrate what is best to do. Help those who, like you once were, are overwhelmed by their feelings. All you need to do is show them the way.

It is time to step into a leadership role. Others are looking to you to solve a problem or show them how to work through an emotional situation. Help others by showing them what needs to be done, not by telling them what to do. Calm your emotions, ground and center yourself, so you can be of greater service to others. You cannot help others overcome emotional distress until you have learned how to calm your own feelings. Be steadfast, strong, and encourage others by your own calm example.
