Opening Up Awareness...

In my open forum discussion on FaceBook, someone asked how to open their abilities more.. Since this is not the first time I've been asked this, I'm going to try and explain a little bit more here.

In my experience, there is more to opening up your awareness than just sitting for hours on end meditating... What also goes into opening up awareness... (to one who is trying to learn to open up and is who was not born with the natural ability to do so at will... Or to someone who has been born with the natural ability, and wants to focus/fine tune it better)... has a lot to do also with Study...

I literally have hundreds of books on many many different topics, mostly to keep myself fresh.. And quite honestly.. To keep me learning... Remember, this is a learning experience we are having here. Never stop learning... Be the sponge.. Become the student.. And stay the student, always...

Keep in mind also.. That this is not something that you just learn and then drop once you "get it"... Study also keeps your mind and heart open and exploring.. It brings also new idea's and new ways of looking at other things that work for other people.. Study keeps you sharp...

I answered this person too on her question with something that I do nearly every day... Calm... Relaxation.. Rest.. Meditation, yes... But if you're constantly watching the news, or your life is filled with drama, drama, drama, then your thoughts and hard wires, start to become scrambled.. Never forget, that we are in essence, energy.. And energy begets energy.. In my opinion, even watching the news on a daily basis is not good. Watching the news subliminally puts thoughts of negative energy into your mind and plays havoc with it. It is subliminal.. Some tv shows too are the same way... I rarely watch tv and most oftentimes listen to music.. Mostly calm music to keep my mind calm and open.. Im not saying that this is the ticket.. Im saying this is what works for me.. For me, calm soft music works, for someone else, maybe another type of music works for them... Remember, there is no wrong way of doing things.... Take what works for you, and leave the rest behind..

Also.. Do not try to force things along... Forcing things usually leads to doubt.. Dont force, dont doubt.. If you see something in a meditation, take it for what it is.. Be thankful that you're receiving what you are receiving.. Maybe theres no reason whatsoever for what you are receiving, theres always the chance that you're getting what you're getting as validation that yes, this is truly happening.

My friend on Facebook sees symbols in her meditations.. This could very well be validation that yes, she is where she should be while meditating.. This could very well be her "signal" so to speak.. And then again, there could be no rhyme or reason for the symbols at all..

If someone is getting something and it hits home strikingly.. That is when to explore it more... Tho as I just said, it might just mean to "pay attention".. There still could be no rhyme or reason for what you receive...

Also, I want to make mention too.. To be very aware of the signs. People ask The Uppers certain questions and they are answered in signs.. Signs are every where people... When you ask, "Am I loved?" And a bird flys over head, or the sun shines in your face.. Or your eye catches a sparkling snowflake... Those are all signs... You might even notice while driving, the street signs, or the red lights or the arrows... Those are all signs also.. It seems to me, that most people are unaware of the signs that they get every single day. That they dont pay attention to them, and so because of that, they feel their questions go unanswered.. They do not go unanswered.. It is you that are missing the signs that are sent.

Our guides, our angles and The Uppers, can not communicate the same way as you and I do. People also oftentimes forget that these beings, these entities, are yet on another wave length as we are. That they are just above us in the same but not the same realm.. So they send us signs. They send us dreams, they send us answers in many ways, and it is up to us to see them. To be open and aware of them.

So with all that said.. How does one open themselves up to awareness?? By keeping themselves aware to begin with.. To study.. To meditate.. To keep an open mind to their thoughts and others thoughts.. To stay away from negative interactions as best as possible as one can.. ie: Tv, News etc etc... Being around negative people will drain the psyche also.. And some people are much more sensitive than others in that area.. Myself, it is extremely draining to be around negativity for long periods of time.. Stay centered, stay grounded...

And be thankful.. The Uppers love to be thanked for the gifts that they share with us. Just as you like to be recognised for the things that you do, so do they.. So make sure to also include a thank you to your angels and guides for sharing with you.. And let them know also.. That you enjoy being the open radio channel, the receptor.. To be able to help them in their endeavors also.. That you enjoy their company... Rather than constantly asking questions in meditations.. Go now and then... For a visit.. Just to be with them.. And be quiet with them... To enjoy them... As they enjoy you..

Remember... That learning to be aware takes time, practice and patience.. This does not happen over night.. Stay strong on your path..

Ask, and you will receive.. Knock... And the door will be opened to you..

Asalam Alakim my friends...
