Spiritual Awakening: R-E-L-A-X: Relax

As the day unfolded today this song stuck in my head. As someone who believes in messages as part of the spiritual awakening process I realized it was a message to share the concept of relaxing and letting things flow because in the end the only one who controls things is GOD. Being an action taker I have found myself trying to force things and this was creating some blockages and making accomplishing certain goals  seem impossible. I decided to sit in a hot bath and light some candles and relax and meditate. As a result I was told that the theme of my day should be to relax and just let things flow. It was when I started to let things flow that I experienced more peace and joy and things seemed to get accomplished. In looking at the things I can control and accepting the things I can’r and understanding that when it is all said and done it is GOD’S plan after all.  The key know is to let GOD direct us on our spiritual path towards growth and enlightenment.  In relaxing and worrying less we open up channels that allow us to receive and thus we mover forward in a positive direction towards our goals and dreams.

 A perfect example of  relaxing and letting it flow happened recently as I ran a spirit nigh for Relay For Life with Tijuana Flats and hadn’t received the check yet so I inquired and received an email that stated a check for $142.59 was mailed to the address on the w-9 which was nit the address I had given them. Instead of getting angry and pointing blame as I would have done in the past I took a deep breath and called The American Cancer Society and explained calmly the situation and they are looking into it and will credit me and my Relay For Life with the donation. It may take some time to post to http://main.acsevents.org/goto/jdogg2, however I can take solace in knowing that it will post and those touched by cancer will be helped with research, education, advocacy, and services. I have also learned hat sometimes people will not follow directions and not to get made at them but to just let it flow.  I have learned that people will also say they are going to donate and not donate so I shouldn’t get mad instead I should relax and know that in the end GOD will sort everything out.

Spiritual Awakening: Tools to R-E-L-A-X!!!

 It is said that a positive shift can occur as quickly as 15 minutes thus i give you this meditative music to use to help you release blockages and to relax.

A spiritual bath where you light candles, burn incense, infuse essential oils, while utilizing stones and crystals can be a great tool in relaxing while also getting you centered and balanced.
A massage in a peaceful serene setting where you can create sacred space will release the negative neuro toxins that may be holding you back from achieving your goals.

 Visiting a spiritual practitioner for chakra balancing, a reading, or a spiritual cleanse is a great way to relax and thus clear your mind of issues that may be holding you back from creating the life that  you desire. In clearing blockages and releasing fear, anger, and other negative emotions you will find yourself functioning at a higher level and thus enhancing your personal and professional life.

Breathing before taking action is a great tool to help you relax.

Affirmations when internalized and set in the subconscious will manifest in your consciousness and serve as a great tool to help you relax and grow in mind, body, and spirit.

 Learning to focus will assist you in your efforts to relax and allow things to flow.  People ask me all the time JDOGG how can you sit at Starbucks and write your spiritual blog without being sidetracked? The answer is simple I put on relaxing music plug in the ear buds and focus on the task at hand and let the words flow to me and from me and thus I stay connected to source with a focus on inspiring and empowering others. When you can focus and compartmentalize the tasks at hand you can accomplish great things.

Forgiveness is a great tool to help you relax as when you let go of those who have trespassed against you you are able to release negative emotional charges and thus you are able to move forward on your spiritual journey with the knowledge that everything is in divine order just the way GOD intended.

Stay Positive!!! Namaste!!!
