FREEDOM! – Page 18

Everything is energy and we are all expanding. There’s a lot of talk these days about expansion. So what exactly is being talked about?

Encarta gives the definition of EXPANSION as; “The process of increasing, or increasing something, in size, extent, or scope. Act of expanding: the act or state of expanding, opening, or spreading out.” Also interesting are the synonyms listed: growth, development, increase, extension.

It is said that the universe is always expanding. It is in constant movement, growing and developing and thus it is the same with you! But…what exactly is expanding? How are we growing & developing? WHAT is increasing when we do expand?

Depending on the teacher or coach I’m sure there are many angles to ponder, however, for this blog I want to explore what is increasing and expanding for you as an individual and spiritual being. 1. YOUR AWARENESS 2. YOUR SPACE!

“We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time.” T.S. Eliot (The Four Quartets No4-The Little Gidding)

On each spiritual journey we are exploring as we grow. All this exploring does indeed expand our universe! We each have a universe to explore but it is NOT outside of us. It lies within and expands out!

As you explore your inner self you are increasing your awareness of WHO you really are and discovering your truth. The more you explore all that is YOU, the more you begin to recognize the energies, thought patterns, illusions or programming that is NOT!

By becoming more aware of yourself, the old patterns, energies and illusions will begin to fall away allowing you to bring in even more of YOU! Therefore, increasing awareness of YOU is the beginning of the expansion!

OK, you are increasing your awareness and bringing in more of you so what happens now? Well, all that inner transformation begins to “spill over” to the space around you. The energy space around you is your AURA! This is your SPACE.

When you fill up your space with YOU, your own personal, unique universe is expanding! You start to become or rediscover that you are indeed the master of your universe. You are growing and developing as a being which in turn allows you to expand WITHIN the universe.

The more of YOU in your space, the more you open your mind and allow in new wonderful experiences! You are able to create more and to have manifest your deepest desires. Your truth gets uncovered and shines around you lighting your way for more exploration!

Once you discover who you really are, you will begin, as T.S. Eliot said in The Little Gidding, to “know the place for the first time.” In other words, to see yourself and all that you are in a whole new light! Shine your light!~Debbie

I’m going to begin this blog with one simple statement: YOU ARE A MAGNIFICENT BEING! When you were conceived there was an explosion of light! You fit all that brilliance into a tiny fertilised egg! I don’t know about you but I consider conception one of the most amazing things in the world! It is truly a miracle in and of itself!

Several years back I was blessed with the opportunity to be in the room during an IVF procedure to transfer the fertilised egg from test tube to future Momma. Now as if it isn’t amazing enough that an egg can be fertilised outside the body, what I witnessed was even more so.

The monitor flashed a bright light as they implanted the egg and the nurses explained to me that it happens every time and they are not exactly sure why. Being a clairvoyant I could absolutely see why! The spirits (I saw 2 distinct beings) entered the physical! Frankly I was in awe of the miracle that was happening right before my eyes!

OK, so you were conceived then you were born into a really cute baby body! You all know how cute EVERY baby is! When you laughed, that first little baby laugh, the whole room lit up and everyone smiled and laughed with you! You may not have noticed it then (or remember it), but no matter what was going on, everyone stopped to make you laugh and raised their own vibration to come up to yours!

You were ~BEING SEEN~! And not only were you being seen but everyone around you got a healing! Now, the question becomes, right now, in present time, are you being seen or are you hiding?! Are you shining your bright self or have you toned it down? Are you hiding in lonely isolation or are you out there being seen?

So why is it that we turn down our light? While I don’t think there is any one answer to that question, it IS worth exploring. I’m sure you all know at least one person, if not yourself, who is isolated in some form or fashion. People hide behind their work, computer or cell phone so as not to be seen and this isolates them.

Sometimes you hide because of not feeling worthy or that someone might not like you. Maybe you are feeling insecure or think you have “bad” energy. Sometimes it’s because you don’t want to have that uncomfortable conversation and other times, you are simply isolating yourself because you are in pain or unhappy.

It may be that you lower your vibration and hide so that others feel comfortable being around you. After all you don’t want to shine if someone around you is hurting. The last one is actually BIG! 🙂 It may be that you bring down your vibration or dim your light because you don’t want to “stand out”. It could also be just plain FEAR!

~BEING SEEN~ and shining brightly is not always easy…especially when you are going through a difficult time. On the other hand it’s also not easy if you are feeling GOOD and others around you are having a rough time. In either case when you get yourself grounded & centered, begin to shine and see the bright side of YOU, you heal! When you raise your vibration even in the midst of a difficult time, the energy starts to clear and you can once again begin living from your bright self!

Healing others is all about you healing yourself first. How often have you turned down your HAPPY waiting for someone else to heal so they can come with you on your journey? This is very common thing to do in fact. Well, here is another fact….you can’t heal someone else if they don’t want to heal! They may not be ready or even want to step up and really that’s OK. It is their choice to make but you don’t have to let THEIR choice become YOUR choice!

There is a wonderful excerpt from Return to Love by Marianne Williamson that I would like to share as it gets to the heart of what I’m talking about. I know it’s a bit long but very much worth reading:

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is out Light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous?

Actually who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn’t serve the world. There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the Glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone.

And as we let our own Light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

Why not take a moment right now to heal and liberate yourself? Close your eyes and turn your attention within. Allow your light to shine as brightly and brilliantly as when you came into your body! Find your inner spark of light! Release that baby giggle from those adult lips! Allow the fear to fall away and shine your “BRILLIANT, GORGEOUS, TALENTED and FABULOUS” light upon the world! ~Debbie
