When I started my healing lifestyle 4 years ago, I had no idea where it would take me. After my first amazing epiphany and conversation with God (https://myselfhealingjourney.com/believing-is-seeing), I jumped in with both feet. I had never felt anything so powerful, pure and true as that love before. (except when I gave birth to my sons!) Throughout my blog I have said many times that we ALL have access to that unconditional love – it is ALWAYS available to us. I have spent these years reading (60+ books), listening (countless podcasts and workshops) and studying (multiple classes and certifications) everything I can get my hands on about where that love comes from, how I can maintain an open line to it, and how to teach others to let that love in. I believe it is through that unconditional love that true healing happens. Now that I know enough to know I don’t know squat, what did I decide to say yes to? Starting a spiritual community!!!!!!!!!!!
If someone had told me that I would eventually start a “religious” practice with my 2 best friends / soul sisters, I would have (rudely) laughed in their face for SO many reasons! Growing up, I had a pretty contentious relationship with organized religion. I often said, “The church/religion does not represent to me what I feel God truly is.” I believed in God, I had been baptized and “saved”, but I felt such a disconnect from the messages I was getting in church and the unconditional love I know God is. I also felt scared NOT to believe because who wants to spend an eternity in hell?!?! I see now how man has wrapped so much fear into religion to keep other men on the straight and narrow. Even though I stopped going to church after high school, I never stopped talking to my Source, to God. I always felt that connection, and meditation opened that up even more. I just didn’t know what church/religion I “fit in” with. Therefore, when the opportunity was presented to me recently, after a LOT of deep soul searching and questioning, I discovered there were more reasons TO start this journey than not.
- I feel so passionate and excited about this New Age, mystical, energy and meditation work. I can’t wait to share it with others and keep learning more!!
- Who wouldn’t want to start a fun adventure with their 2 besties – These gals are freaking amazing! We can, and often do, talk for hours about this stuff.
- The Universe answered my call for a group to grow with.
- I’ve learned that I feel closest to God when I’m doing anything that brings me joy, or any other good feeling, ie love, compassion, laughter, orgasms, friendship, music, family, forgiveness, etc. (in no particular order!). The thought of starting this spiritual group brings me joy.
- Life is too short. I’ve got to start following my heart.
- I’m taking back the power that I feel organized religion is trying to take from us. When we are aligned with source, our power is limitless – we are ALL children of one creative force/God/Universe/Source. I choose to live in love, not fear
- Why the fuck not?!?!
Like I said, I know enough to admit I am only at the tip of the iceberg. In other words, I am still Unfolding into this work and this life. So, what qualifies me to do this?? I have no idea, but I know it feels right, it feels loving, and I’m giving it to God. So it is with great pleasure that I introduce my blogging readers to Unfolding – https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61557847634112 . We welcome anyone and everyone who wants to have fun exploring and questioning everything life has to offer. No matter where you are in your unfolding process, we will meet you in that space with unconditional love.
“Group work can also be helpful for intensifying the light of your presence. A group of people coming together in a state of presence generates a collective energy field of great intensity. It not only raises the degree of presence of each member of the group, but also helps to free the collective human consciousness from its current state of mind dominance. This will make the state of presence increasingly more accessible to individuals. However, unless at least one member of the group is already firmly established in it and thus can hold the energy frequency of that state, the egoic mind can easily reassert itself and sabotage the group’s endeavors. Although group work is invaluable, it is not enough, and you must not come to depend on it. Nor must you come to depend on a teacher or a master, except during the transitional period, when you are learning the meaning and practice of presence.” ~Eckhart Tolle
