The Universe of You

Inspired by all my SoulFullHeart beloveds Jelelle Awen, Raphael Awen, and Leena Colibri and their amazing expressions of a world not defined but felt through the heart of Infinite Love.

The doors are open
They have never been closed
You have chosen to see a wall instead
You have had too
It has been a self-loving act of protection
You haven’t been ready until now.
Until the wall started to feel confining
No longer self-loving.
You know there is something beyond
There is You beyond.
You begin to attack the wall, to tear it down
But with each blow it remains steadfast
You try and scale it, and each time it gets higher and higher.
You try and dig underneath it
Only to find its roots buried deep.
Through all the struggle, pain, frustration, and doubt
You realize that you can only surrender
To what the wall is trying to tell you
Trying to get you to feel.

For ultimately you are the wall.
You are fighting yourself
When you permit yourself to feel yourself
To love the parts of you that are afraid of what is on the other side Of what might or might not happen
You begin to feel the wall has doors all along.
They were right there
Waiting for you to be able to see them
Through your vulnerable heart eyes
Through the tears of letting go
Of what you thought you were and what kept you safe
But not alive.
These doors take shape and you gather your courage,
Your fear,
And your doubts and you take them with you.
They are your guides and no longer You.

The world around you shifts and you feel it starts to talk to you Respond to you
And then you realize
Like with the wall
you are not separate from Life but Life itself.
You are walking in the Universe of You.

Experiencing Shifts From The Third To Fourth Dimensions

By Jelelle Awen, co-creator, teacher, and writer at the SoulFullHeart Way Of Life

15390676_299184267148847_7730831888311059911_n

I feel like I am in two worlds at the same time…..walking around in third dimension, buying groceries, having tea in starbucks, connecting and talking with Raphael……then in fourth and even fifth dimensional consciousness experiencing frequencies of intense light, love, connection, multidimensional communion with guides, and a sense of innate self goodness. The physical settings are the same but the experience of that reality is much different.

I am still digesting an intense journeying experience that I had this morning to the earths orbit in which I met with a beloved non-human soul sister guide with deep tears of reunion and completion…such beautiful soul integration and realization of my galactic roots, letting go another degree of the pain body that I have spent so much focus and attention and love healing over the years. I will be integrating this movement and continual teaching that is being offered into my life by non-human and ethereal beings and offering of SoulFullHeart in a way that is current and transparent.

So much is shifting in the world right now as we move out of the third dimensional realities and energies of five sense-based reality processing, dualistic thinking, separation and loneliness, linear time, and fusion with the body-mind and the pain body (which holds our emotional and spiritual woundings). We are transitioning into higher consciousness frequencies – those of us that choose this anyway – of fluid time and space, less dualistic thinking, Oneness and connection, access to our deepest soul gifts, remembrance of our bigness and inhabitation of our multidimensional Divine self.

Even as this is a challenging phase to be here, it is also an incredibly exciting time to be here as so much possibility for new can arise out of the ashes of the collapse of the old, outdated, shadow-based and patriarchal world views, thought and behavior patterns, and ways of living. For those of us called to make this higher dimensional shift of consciousness, we are being pressed to let go of the old and let in the new….at an increasingly rapid pace.

Holding this with self love and care, feeling the reactions of all parts of us (the trailing edges of fear, insecurity, doubt, depression, rage, flatness) is important as we go into the unknown reaches of inhabiting the consciousness of our Divine Self.

If you would like emotional support and healing with a heart open facilitator (Raphael Awen, Sequoia Heartman, and Leena Colibri) and a loving community and to experience accelerated spiritual awakenings to help you during this time of transition, please visit us at soulfullheartwayoflife.com for a free initial session either in person here in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico or offer a virtual messenger.

Surrendering to Love as a Daily Practice

wordswag_1480693315833

 

By Leena Colibri

 

What is love asking you to surrender to today?

Sometimes it can feel hard to digest that every relationship, work opportunity, or life-changing event is actually an invitation from love to feel ourselves from a new place inside. Sometimes life takes us by surprise and suddenly we’re in the middle of a catalytic course of changes we never could have guessed were coming.

I’m feeling today the ways in which I’m still working on this skill of surrendering to invitations into new places of growth and healing. They aren’t always easy to navigate, especially without help. I’m also feeling how in those moments when we lack surrender, we are given the best roadmaps into ourselves.

You and I…we are universes. We are constantly shifting, changing, adapting and growing. We are having to let even our most constant and age-old stars fade out and die away. We are learning how to adjust our own conditions to allow new life to spring forth and move us onward. Even universes have to surrender to the cycles of life and the winds of love…

If you are interested in having help and taking along a mirror of love for your own journey into deeper surrender to love itself, please visitwww.soulfullheartwayoflife.com/sessions

The Importance Of Sacred Space For Self Love And Care

images

I am emerging now, out of a sacred space. A space of self love and self care. A space where my primary focus was on my own needs. A space I have been in for almost a week, altered from the usual and brought into something new.

I found this space not from deep meditation practice, but rather through body illness, body detoxification, and body realignment. It might seem strange to offer that being ill provided a sacred space, but it did, as I surrendered to what it was bringing to me. Even as I certainly had moments of discomfort and pain, I could feel a trust that it was all part of a bigger process. It was preparing me for what is coming next both in my own life, in SoulFullHeart, and in the world.

As I sip on a potent concoction of herbal extracts given to me by our new herbologist, I feel the love of the plants that are moving through my blood stream, bringing vitality, immunity…..life. I am newly focused now again on my nutritional health, taking it to an even higher level of self care and love….without self judgment or regiment or vigilance. Just tuning into what feels good, what is good, what is alive. That has been another gift of not being well as I could listen to what my body was telling me about eating foods (such as wheat and sugar) that lower my vibrational frequency.

This was a minor illness, easily cured, yet it brought the gifts of a need for a self containment after months of time spent in serving love to others, sharing my energy and writings, etc. My desire now is to continue this self care containment space without the need for illness. I feel a sense of increasing my practices of meditation, multidimensional travel, creativity through projects and to hold a protective container around my energy and what energies I take in.

I have connected the illness too with a choice I made to move on from holding individual facilitation space for others and to focus on creative projects such as a book about the SoulFullHeart process, a documentary, etc. that I have been working on for awhile or been wanting to manifest. This was a tender decision, after many years of working with people. I am now shifting to supporting Raphael, Leena, and Sequoia in their facilitation and serve others through group circles and webinars in the future. I could feel how for the part of me that has primarily been a facilitator, this is a big adjustment that will take time and love with me to digest.

My experience brings up for me a reminder of how important self care and self love are for all of us. Sometimes it takes an illness or emergency for us to actually go in and be in stillness, to rest, to breathe, to turn inward. Life can bring us this, yet, also, we can bring ourselves to life with an intention to give ourselves the love that we have been giving others and to connect with ourselves and parts of us in much deeper and meaningful ways.

The Freedom to be an Expert Experimenter and not an Expert

expert-experimenter

 

By Leena Colibri

Sometimes the ticket to fun is the self-permission to be an expert experimenter, not an expert!

I was reminded of this just moments ago, feeling how much creative fun I’ve been having for the past two days. I’m not an expert in any particular creative avenue, but I do find that I have been feeling freer to experiment and have fun with it all again. This is a new and arising experience inside myself, after so many years of having parts of me hold intense self-punishment and criticism. These wounded aspects of myself who energize these frequencies are beginning to feel more and more held by me, leaving me more room to be in my authentic joy around creating more often.

Being with these intense parts of us is a deep process that eventually opens out to these more spacious terrains inside ourselves. I know that myself and a few others would love to help you find your way to rediscovering this unfolding freedom inside yourself too. There’s nothing quite like the feeling of being free to be the creative humans we were always meant to be…

Feeling Our Authentic Loneliness

authentic-loneliness

By Leena Colibri

 

Authentic loneliness is more powerful than settling for false company.

Having a solid relationship with ourselves begins by being okay with being alone for necessary phases of time. It doesn’t have to feel okay to every part of us though…some parts are used to reaching out to others outside ourselves for comfort, reassurance, validation, security. On the other side of the coin, some parts would rather be alone, feeling the strain of a social life that they can’t truly land in and be a part of authentically, and where they and other parts often get buried because what they feel isn’t deemed “okay”. This is what makes us all unique mosaics of emotions and reactions. It is what brings us into processes where we get to feel and sort through it all if we choose to, helping us move on to the next phase of our lives, perhaps without as much reaction and with a full-hearted strength that we could never have thought possible.

Our loneliness feels like a huge gift to me, if we can truly feel it and be with it…in being with it, we get to feel our uniqueness, our need and desire for more solidity inside ourselves, and our needs and desires for what we truly want in relationship with others (not just what we’ve been okay with up ’til now).

Loneliness, like any other emotion that carries the label of being “negative” and something that should be avoided at all costs, seems to actually have the power to change our lives for the better and bring us into landscapes of deep healing and growth if we can just let it in and fully feel it…

In Service of Love

When you serve love, love will serve you.

This is where we ultimately live. A place of being of service to Love itself. To receive its bounty and share its powerful gift of healing and creation. We are transmitters of this cosmological energy, like crystals themselves. But to serve love doesn’t mean being completely altruistic. It is about loving yourself enough to heal the energies that aren’t so loving.

If we have wounded parts of us that are giving then the energy has a tint to it. It could be care-taking, shame, or even self-image based. I am not saying there is no love transacting, it is just not quite as clean as it would be otherwise. If a doctor has a flu, I don’t want him caring for me. It is not his essence as a doctor that I question, it is the state of his health that may have an impact on me. So even in our best intentions, our giving can have some unintended consequences.

To be in a process of healing ourselves, we are serving love. We are polishing our crystal to let the light of Love have its full effect. It wants to be taken in and expressed in the purest form possible. As we make choices that support this process the more Love we are privy too. That love serves us in ways we can’t totally be aware of in moments of pain and fear. There is a trust that forms over time, as our souls wounding to love is exposed and felt. As we come to terms with this Trust, the more healing can take place.

I am called to serve love, for love, through love, and as love. SoulFullHeart offers a process by which I do that. It is where our dreams and calling collide. It is a way of life that exponentially sets the healing process on a trajectory and takes you to the far reaches of your inner world and dimensions.

Holding The Mind And The Self With Love And Reverance

3dimage

By Raphael Awen

For many, the traditional idea of achieving a quietened mind state in order to meditate is an all-too-tall order. The idea that you need to achieve near total quietness of your mind in order to experience ‘non-experience’ sounds really cool to some who identify with that kind of attainment, and may even well be real enough for those who have gone there, but I’d like to offer you another way.

I’d like to offer you a way that works for me that involves a ton less effort and self-discipline (and what for many has devolved into self-punishment).

Let me back up for a moment though and speak to what I feel is at root of the ‘quiet the mind’ approach to meditation. Essentially, it is this idea that the mind is bad. But It’s more than an idea. It’s the feelings within the idea that give it power over us. It leaves us focused on achieving a mastery over a wayward part of us through effort, control and ultimately domination. Thankfully, we are collectively and personally coming to the end of the age of ‘domination over self’ kind of pictures, which aren’t kind at all.

With this firmly entrenched feeling-based reality that the self is bad, we are left in a desperate gasping for the return of the breath of our own goodness. We will stop at nothing to somehow reconnect with our own deep worth in self-love. The human being I believe was born of worth, functions on worth, and exists in worth. Our journey in being human is about coming to felt (feeling based) terms with this worth inside of our own being. Worth is meant to be felt and experienced. Without a feeling coloured experience of our worth, that worth is of no value to us.

So then, what we have perceived as the mind´s resistance to meditation is actually the mind’s resistance to being labeled as bad, and being outside of our core goodness somehow. Of course our mind isn’t going to put up with being crapped on like that.

So how then did we get the picture that opposing some aspect of ourselves would yield a deeply valuable and maintainable connection with ourselves? I’ll tell you (in my own ‘near as I can tell’ way) where we got that picture. We got it from the ocean that we’ve collectively been swimming in up till now, that the self is renegade to essential goodness. Good news for us, it turns out that what the self is actually renegade to is instead this very idea (along with all the deeply held associated feelings) that the self is bad.

So if the self isn’t bad, as we’ve been deeply and subconsciously programmed to see it and feel it as…., then what? ‘Then what’ is that the self is already good, and you and I aren’t sentenced to any self improvement picture, but the only kind of legit improvement that remains is about now seeing ourselves as utterly un-improvable.

How cool is that? It leaves you with something to improve upon, while at the same time with the impossibility of that.

Do you feel yourself at this moment beginning to surrender into a mind and heart expanded place? Your mind is plenty busy with the feeling and the what-ifs of all this that I´m offering you, and your heart of self love is beginning to open. Your feeling some relief from the sub-conscious self punishment picture that plays on the screen of your heart. I’m juicing you with the overflow from my own heart as I’ve had a head start in bathing myself in this new reality.

The picture above is one of those ‘pictures within pictures’ called ´stereoscopic´ pictures. See for a moment how long it takes your eyes to see the picture within this picture.

I offer the analogy of the stereoscopic pictures as a way to feel into a new vision of reality that is emerging for us collectively and that is available to you personally to tie into. There is a picture of reality that is forming within your current picture of reality. It isn’t the one you’ve known up till now based in the unworthiness of the self and all of the associated realities that go along with that. That picture is the only one you’ve been able to see up till now. You can now however see the new picture by looking into your current one and as you do, seeking to open your eyes to a new reality, your heart eyes expand and are enabled to see what you didn’t know was there up till now, but actually was as a deeper and truer layer of reality.

Try holding some of this new emerging feeling inside of yourself as you set out to meditate and see what now emerges in you without the need to dominate a wayward mind.

Feel into your own innate goodness amidst all of the so called mind chatter you hear going on.

Moving Beyond Our Fears To Embrace Our Infinite Bigness Video

By Raphael Awen

“What we really fear at a deep core level are not the things that we think we fear. What we really fear is our own bigness. Our bigness isn’t just big, it is infinitely big.”

Raphael Awen narrates his own words in this video’s powerful and inspirational message of embracing our fears in order to heal them, the truth of our Divine essence, and how to decondition our fears. Raphael is co-creator and facilitator of SoulFullHeart Way Of Life, an awakening and healing process in the both the domains of the heart and soul that leads to both individuation (ego maturation) and union/intimacy with self, others, and the Divine.

“Let love collide with the reality you’ve conditioned yourself to…”. You can go here to read the words.

What We Really Most Deeply Fear Is Our Bigness

By Raphael Awen

8af264e8394df1f688601bc1dbf713e8

Video of Raphael Awen reading the following words with music and images

Something will hold our fear.

Fear is a form of reverence. That which we fear, we revere. We fear and revere things that we perceive as bigger than us. We fear god, circumstances, illness, etc. as things or beings that are bigger than us and that we are thus subject to. I might want this, but god might want something different for me that I don’t want.

All of this is a product of making ourselves small.

What we really fear at a deep core level are not the things that we think we fear. What we really fear is our own bigness. Our bigness isn’t just big, it is infinitely big. Anything that we can’t define, refine or confine, we fear, and understandably so.

So we set out to manage ourselves. We manage life instead of letting in life. We see ourselves as subject to life, rather than the subjects of life. We choose a perception of a scarcity-based relationship to life because of the utter fear of falling prey to unlimited abundance.

It is actually way easier for parts of us to shut down our desire for more and just live with the dampened desire and dampened disappointment than it is to open ourselves full throttle to the level of desire and abundance that our being actually is. Here again is the deep core fear we run from.

How might we change this?

Because we live as conditioned beings, and we have conditioned ourselves to a lesser-reality which has become our ultimate-reality, then it follows that letting in new and truer reality will happen for us as we entertain and let in that new reality. We begin to become reconditioned to a new reality. Nothing happens without our consent and choice in our personal kingdoms and queendoms because we are the sovereign of our own domains.

There is still a deep place for surrender to the divine in all of this, it’s just that you can’t take yourself out of the divine equation. By that, I mean, you can’t externalize God and surrender to God. This is a form of keeping intact the small-you reality. You can’t separate yourself from divinity, try as you may.

Many will chafe at this idea of seeing themselves as god. How sacrilegious they exclaim. What we define as blasphemy is in service of the gods of our own creation. The gods we create are created out of our deepest fears that we haven’t yet felt.

Time and time again, life faces us with our infinite bigness, awaiting our surrender, our exploration, our reverence for all that is, and all that is in us, and though us, and to us….You are ‘divinity out divining’…. as you are now; as you are desiring to be; and as you will more and more come to terms with every day.

Feel your fears. They are one of the single truest things about you. So are your desires. Feel them too. Own it all. Let in the tears of having muffled both your real and deepest fears as well as your desires.

Let love collide with the reality you’ve conditioned yourself to.
