Follow Your Bliss

This door opens onto possibilities, what becomes possible when you follow the nudging of your heart. As you follow your heart you allow your soul to bring you synchronicities and perfect timing. As you follow your heart you express love in what you do and channel that love into our world. Open this door and allow your heart to guide you.

What is your Path of Power?

Your Path of Power is like that trail of shining pebbles from the story of Hansel and Gretel, laid out for you by your Higher Self and guiding you home. Each pebble shines with joy, excitement and bliss.

You choose your Path of Power each time you choose the activity that aligns you with your Higher Self, and through your Higher Self to Universal energy. Alignment with your Higher Self is your direct link to that source of power which is Universal energy.

Your Higher Self gives you clear indication of what activities guide you along on your path and which activities do not.  

Here’s what that looks like.

When you have the choice between two possible activities, pay attention to how you feel about them. The feelings may be physical or emotional. Our Higher Selves communicate through our bodies and subconscious with bodily sensations and emotions in response to activity choices.

If your Higher Self is telling you that the activity will deplete your energy and take you off your Path of Power, you may feel a constricting sensation in your solar plexus. This might be combined with an emotion of feeling let down or disappointed.

If your Higher Self is telling you that the activity will energize you, you may feel an expansive, opening sensation in your heart area, and positive, uplifting emotions.

It is as if you and your Higher Self have your own secret code for communicating. As you pay attention you will become attuned to how your Higher Self communicates with you.

Imagine choosing your daily activities based on what most appeals to you! That is how your Higher Self guides you on your Path of Power.

It is a testament to the love of God that our Paths of Power are those which most attract us, those which are our dream and feel the best. You will find that these are the activities with which you choose to spend your spare time, even if you feel you cannot pursue them as your career or job.
Your Path of Power draws you like a magnet.

Choosing to follow your Path of Power is solely your own responsibility.

No one can tell you to do it. It must come from within. No one can give you permission to pursue your path. The permission must come from within.

Seeking your Path of Power is not a selfish seeking. It is Self-centered Soul seeking. Additionally, in the pursuit of your path you are reenergized and have that much more to offer to others as well as to yourself.

As you follow your path on a daily basis you will find your world opening up as you have more energy for yourself and more to offer to others. What may have felt like a selfish pursuit is actually for the benefit of all. Others will benefit from your energy flow and be energized by you.

You can choose to follow your Path of Power, one bright, shining pebble at a time, and create more and more of the bliss and energy of alignment in your life.

Throughout your day, when you have the choice between two possible activities, view both in terms of the energy they hold for you.

​Does one look brighter in your mind’s eye, signaling a, “yes!” in your heart? Does it feel lighter to you, giving you an expanded, relaxed feeling inside? That is the activity which will guide you on your Path of Power.

Does the other one cause you to clench up inside, a tightening feeling, perhaps one of constriction or tenseness? Does it feel darker to you, heavier? That one will deplete your energy. It is not on your Path of Power at this time and will sap your energy rather than energizing you.

Be energized as you align with your Higher Self, attuning to Universal energy and following your Path of Power.

Spirit is Communicating

“I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in.
Yeah, yeah, oh-yeah, what condition my condition was in.”
-Mickey Newberry

 
I have lately been more aware of the beauty surrounding me, especially outdoors. Yesterday morning I walked outside and it was as if it called to me. A bird sang, the air was bright and beautiful. It was like a “heads up!” message. Yet I didn’t know what to do with it except to notice.

Last night I dreamt of being driven in a van through the Alps. The beauty of the mountains was overwhelming. Tears of joy filled my eyes. I was glued to the window not wanting to miss one instant of the beauty.

Recently too, the sunsets have attracted me and felt like a pathway to feeling the love of Spirit, a daily reminder of just how much we are loved.

Perhaps the message is to focus on the beauty of all that surrounds us, both inner and outer beauty. Focus on God’s love and how that love is shown, both large and small. It is all there for us to be open to, to focus on every day.

Pay attention to beauty as a reflection of God’s love and you are choosing to allow more and more of it to enter your daily life.

Additionally, pay attention to what else you are paying attention to. Look at where your attention goes. Is it something you want to increase in your life? It will.

And then there is this - pay attention to where your positive attention is, for it is not random. What attracts and entices you is your Spirit communicating with you, guiding you to your inspiration. 

What is your Spirit saying to you today?

Focus on the positive, the beauty, what feels attractive to you, and give that your attention, because not only will that increase in your life, it is your Spirit communicating with you.
​
One way to do this is to set yourself a reminder alert for every hour on your cell phone for a day. Make it a celestial chime, or some other ring that reminds you of your Spirit. If you don’t have a cell phone you could use a pocket-size kitchen timer.

Step 1 - When it goes off each hour, check in and notice where your attention is focused. Is it positive, something you want to increase in your life? If it’s not re-script your thought until it is positive. Then reset your timer and go back to what you were doing. Very quickly you’ll find yourself more aware of the pattern of your thoughts and you’ll be able to focus more upon the positive thoughts.

Step 2 – Now look at those positive thoughts. Look at what attracts and entices you. Look for what feels good today. This is more important than you may realize for there’s a message from  your Spirit in this.

For example, you may find yourself drawn to gazing out the window instead of doing whatever it is you are working on inside. What is it that particularly attracts you as you look out the window? Perhaps your Spirit is gently suggesting you need fresh air, time in Nature,  a walk.

Follow this guidance as often as you are able to.  

Today, allow yourself to feel the love of Spirit communicating with you through your heart, and if you will allow it, guiding you to a life of inspiration.

What Is Your Bliss?

“Bliss is that deep, fulfilling, sustainable, driving need you have. That thing that is the true ‘you.’ Your bliss is your life’s purpose.”
Kenneth Benjamin

For much of my life if you asked me what my bliss was my answers would have been changeable. I might have had to think some to answer the question. I might even have said, “I don’t really know.”

I recently asked a friend what she likes to do more than anything. This woman works non-stop. She teaches during the day, then goes home to raise two teenagers. Her husband works constantly so much of the emotional investment of raising children is left to her. She puts her all into it. My friend had to think about my question. “I don’t know. Reading maybe?” Her own happiness is not her first priority.

How many of us don’t really know what our bliss is?

What we most love, what makes us happiest, the areas in our lives which bring us joy and satisfaction, this is our Higher Self speaking to us of our purpose for being here. Guiding us toward our purpose through the emotion of bliss. Who doesn’t want to repeat a pleasant or blissful experience?

Some lucky people already know where their passion is, they pursue it actively, it is their vocation or their job and consumes their life.

Then there are others like me who enjoyed lots of things and tried lots of different jobs, never settling. All the while I pursued my bliss, unaware that I did so. My difficulty with identifying my bliss came from the fact that it was too familiar, too much a part of my inner life. It was my comfort. It was a place of flow and every so often deep joy and love. It certainly didn’t feel like anything that could be my work or my purpose in life. It was too natural to me, like breathing.

I started journaling as a teenager, living away from home at boarding school in a room with three other girls. A naturally, private person I found the lack of privacy hard. My journal became my private space. A place where I could go to release the adolescent anguish of a fourteen year old learning about herself and others. I wrote furiously of whatever upset took me at the time. As my feelings scrawled over the pages I was able to feel calmer. As I calmed myself, solutions to problems presented themselves and I worked them through in my writing. Always I felt comforted. At times I had an “ah-ha” moment, feeling a sense of enlightenment, like a light bulb coming on in my head. Those were the best times when I felt a tremendous sense of fulfillment, love and connection.
​
I am still journaling, fifty years later. My writing has expanded into this blog, and I acknowledge it as having high priority in my daily life. It is my bliss.

​Allow yourself to be guided. Find your bliss and follow it.

​What makes you happiest of all?

Chances are your bliss is already an active part of your life however small. Today, make it a priority to discover your bliss.

1. Think about what comforts you, what cheers you up when you’re feeling low. What are you doing?

2. Now think about times when you experienced flow. Time flew by. You were absorbed completely in what you were doing and what you were doing flowed through you almost without thought. You looked up to find that time had passed you unaware. You were in flow. What were you doing?

3. Now think about peak experiences in your life. Those times in which you experienced fulfillment, happiness, deep love. What were you doing?

What do these activities have in common? What patterns underlie these activities? Hidden within you will find your bliss.
