Are you like me and only want to do all things Christmas right now?
Maybe not. Maybe so. If you are then you may be experiencing some of what I’m going through. Maybe you too are finding that your heart and mind aren’t going in the same direction.
My heart wants to revel in anything to do with Christmas, while my mind wants to get work done.
Friend, you know what that incongruency means - I’m out of alignment.
Okay, so what to do? Being out of alignment, as my nephew would say, sucks.
Hmm…
So, off to meditate I go.
I quiet myself to begin my deep breathing but my thoughts explode. I don’t want to feel pulled throughout this holiday season, hey, it’s Christmas. I want to watch Christmas movies, decorate my home some more, research fun Christmas games to do with the kids coming over for Christmas Eve, look up holiday recipes, finish my Christmas cards, sing along with my Christmas music, and connect to the deeper meaning of the season.
I get stern with myself. Okay, mind, enough!
Determined, I focus on my breathing. As I relax I see part of a message that was given to me by Archangel Raphel some years back. I get up and search my computer for its entirety.
Wow, check this out.
Archangel Raphel’s Message
When you flow with your natural rhythm only harmony exists.
You need to go within to find and follow your natural rhythm.
When you feel sleepy – sleep.
When you feel hungry – eat.
When you feel songful – sing.
When you feel happy – display happiness in whatever way feels good.
When you feel dreamful – dream.
When you feel full to bursting with creativity – create.
When you feel full of dance – dance.
When you feel contemplative – be still.
Do not allow the clock to dictate to you when to BE that which you are.
You keep yourself in bondage with your time constraints.
If you will allow yourself to live by your natural rhythm you will accomplish much- more than you can imagine.
When you give yourself the freedom to live by your internal natural rhythm your life will flow most harmoniously, and you will accomplish more than you presently do.
When only harmony exists everything that needs to get done, gets done in an orderly fashion.
Okay. I get it. It’s all about the flow.
As I sit and ponder on this message, I find it amusing that what I thought was just a personal message, is exactly what needs to be shared for the next Face of God - Timelessness.
Sixth Face of God - Timelessness
Think about this, God isn’t busy trying to do this, that, or the other. God is the natural harmonious, eternal, timeless flow state of being.
If we believe that we too can embody each of the 12 Faces of God, then we too can live in our natural harmonious, eternal, timeless flow.
We too can live in timelessness.
Remember what happened to me when I got caught up in what my mind thought I needed to do and ignored my natural flow? If you didn’t read or would like to reread, my very human experience where I chose to live out the opposite of my natural rhythm, here it is.
Where to Start
If you’d like to live more in the timelessness and experience your natural flow, I’d suggest you start with Archangel Raphel’s suggestions…
Listen to your body signals - when tired - rest, hungry - eat, sleepy - sleep, etc.
Listen to your passions - Feel songful - sing, creative - create, dreamful - dream.
When you feel happy - express that happiness in whatever way suits you.
Give yourself the freedom ‘I’d add here - the permission’ to live by your internal natural rhythm.
Be that which you are.
“Feeling and experiencing infinity within this finite body, living timelessness within the time span of life - this is what you are here for.” Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
I Get It
I get it. We can’t always do whatever we want in every moment we want. But… I’d venture to say that we can probably do more of what we want than we may think we can.
Hey, you know me, I’m all about taking baby steps if needed. If you wonder how you could do more of what you want, start small and inch your way if necessary. Take one desire that you’d like to implement into life such as listening to your body and resting more or moving more. Start there.
Remember what Archangel Raphel said, “When you give yourself the freedom to live by your internal natural rhythm your life will flow most harmoniously, and you will accomplish more than you presently do.”
