Feeling And Surrendering To Our Beauty

To surrender to the beautiful, is to recognize that what we are is beauty embodied. We are the captors and creators of beautiful things, images, works, and deeds. We are the receivers and conduits of inspiration. What we are motivated to do with the beauty we download every day is entirely up to us and unfortunately, all too often many of us miss the opportunity to express it and be it.

There is so much confusion about what truly makes someone or something beautiful. There can be no final answer to that question. It’s not always about symmetry and perfection, but instead sometimes it’s about asymmetry placed in perfectly imperfect ways. There is no getting away from being a work in progress – a project underway. There is no way to not be the beauty we are called to be. And there is no way in which life doesn’t support that in each of us. Beauty in itself is not and does not have a final answer.

Beauty is a constant journey and one which we have taken to in ways that grossly undermine its reality. We over-focus on small facets of it without taking in the whole picture of what it actually feels like. Perhaps this is why we like art. It can be a way to let something unseen, unheard, unknown, come sneaking in under our well-constructed filters and doorways and surprise us with emotions we maybe thought we’d buried long ago.

Inside myself, I feel a deepening desire to see, hold and appreciate my own beauty and the myriad ways in which it expresses or is withdrawn. We can hold back what we have to offer and be in this world, or we can light our flames and inhabit it like this moment is the only one that matters, for from this moment springs forth a renewed chance to create something beautiful from our hearts, our minds, our mouths, and our lives. Each page I’ve written in earnest struggle to understand a new wave of emotional reaction or fear or even love has become another creation to take into this mosaic of the beauty within me.

Our journey as a species in this very moment is spring-loaded for bounteous beauty. There is so much to let ourselves feel in the goodness of our sacred human hearts as we pass through this corridor and find our next doorway into more truth. The exposure of ourselves and the systems that have held us is the way in to a greater level of beautification. We were never not beautiful to begin with and now we are coming to remember that again.

To truly awaken our hearts and souls is this process I’ve described, or so it feels to me in this moment. With so much incredible pain to feel, heal and let go of, we no longer have much choice but to rediscover our own beauty and consciously create more beauty from it in whatever ways we feel we need and desire to. The payoff is already underway as we continue our ascension into higher dimensions of being and a greater, more authentic sense of love. The choice is renewed in every single second: help to create beauty from our own beauty, or continue pouring concrete over the walls we’ve built against it.

Embracing Change As A Mirror, Healer And Ally

Published on by Kasha RosaLeave a comment

wordswag_1484180467121

We are all facing changes right now. Many of these changes are major upheavals as the veils become thinner and we are finally able to not only listen to, but hear ourselves and our guidance more. Some of these changes we choose voluntarily as our relationship with ourselves deepens and we realize more clearly what it is we truly need and/or desire to have in our lives. The poignant ache for a deeper love that we don’t necessarily know where it could come from or what it could look like is landing with a thud in each of our hearts, giving us new direction, especially in relationships, but also in our careers and geographies.

With change comes process…the pain inside our very sacredly human pain bodies becomes louder in order for us to finally hear it, feel it and heal it. It is an awakening to those ways in which we have been numbed out, “going with the flow” to a degree that has actually seen us shrink to fit circumstances and relationships, and how we have deprived ourselves of love from ourself to ourself, let alone how we have blocked it from flowing to and from others or even the Divine.

This process of learning how to be with change and especially be with ourselves when we are experiencing change, is becoming unavoidable with our global process of ascension. Too, though, our process of vibrating higher is coming in faster than ever before, and the experience of that is now able to deepen for us, the more we can move through what’s holding us down. Change is designed and brought on by love, ultimately… it pushes up what we need to feel in order to fully move into our next chapters and unveil more of who we really are at our core.

My relationship to change hasn’t always been very spacious and in moments it still isn’t. Most of the time, the changes that are being asked of us by love are not easy to embody or willingly say “yes” to, and unfortunately that can also create an experience of life happening to us and not us happening to life. We can feel at these times as if our power is in some sort of cosmic vacuum, even though it’s really just being lovingly challenged. I hold this as my truth and it does help me process through change much easier, especially during these times of intense waves of energetic frequency alterations and the life adjustments that happen accordingly.

Just like the ways in which the sun’s rays can be felt coming in much stronger as the result of weakened barriers holding it’s power back, so we are all experiencing a renewed press of love moving through us much stronger. The process of this awakening that love brings to us is most alive when we embrace the changes we’re being invited into, that aren’t simply outward but actually quite often very inward. We are learning to rearrange our inner furniture to accommodate more love in our lives and of course that translates to adjustments and, at times, all-out upheavals needing to happen outside of us too. If we can trust, somehow, that it is all held in and by love, then we can begin to let in change as the mirror, healer and ally that it actually is and always has been for us.

Arising Tide of Love

I feel Love lapping itself upon the shores
Of my once coveted island
A time to heal the wounds of my soul’s incarnation
The outstretched arm of my heart’s protection

It does not want me to dwell in the disconnection
In the fear of unknowable rejection and consternation
It turns the comfortable into questionable
The predictable into mystical

What lies beyond what was safe?
Underneath what scares you to death?
Above the highest reaches of your passion’s imagination?
In front of the very eyes you thought you could see future with?

The tide is rising
There will be no place to hide
As if there ever was
As if I ever truly wanted to

I have a heart’s flare sent to the sky
The sparks creating an infinite blanket upon the heavens
That call to you
That light the path to our meeting place

The ending of what had been
To begin what never went away
Just hidden in the crevasses of our buried hearts
And the promise that one day we would uncover them together.

From Those Higher Selves Who Wait For Us

higher-self-connection

 

You…
Disintegrated.
You disintegrated so you could reintegrate through your integral integrity.

You…
Relinquished.
You relinquished your innate connection to utter outer and inner beauty in order to bring it all back in to you once again.

You…
Forgot.
You forgot so you could remember all the members of your own humanity and that you are all, in fact, one.

You…
Redeemed.
You redeemed yourself once for all you held in anguish for the sake of a life linked to fear and not love.

…all the potential power you’ve held and hold now has never
Ever
Gone anywhere.

Will you seek again in earnest what it was you once sought
before you relinquished to disintegrate and forget all you ever were?
Your redemption is now.
Will you let go so you can let it in?
Will you chastise or rise?
Will you breathe through the love lungs given you or will you hover in hatred over all you’ve named as wrong?

As always the choice is forever yours,
and as always,
we watch,
and wait at your arrival gate,
with all the love you can imagine
and all the promise of a renewed you to be.

Choosing From Love, To Fall In Love

Published on by Kasha RosaLeave a comment

This mysterious thing we call “falling in love”… what is it but a letting go into the shiny bright light ahead that seems to call, seems to light up a pathway through unknown territory, seems to warm something in the far reaches of your heart that you’d forgotten were ever there?

What else can we call the following of a heart stream that starts in a moment then trickles inward and suddenly pours over every part of us before we even know what we’ve said “yes” to?

Beyond an idea of romance that has us on our knees in ecstatic joy and wonder, this is a bigger embrace of a call that beckons us onward at an as yet un-lived-in pace for in the foreground of our lives we have only settled for the crumbs of what I can only call “the real thing”. Once we have tasted that tender morsel of what truly makes our hearts beam with wonder, awe and reverence, we cannot turn away, we cannot opt out, we cannot fully return to that cave from whence we came.

It is an impossibility to behold the full intrusion of love’s infusion if we do not fall in love all at once and with a perseverance that we can only truly know from our own love lights answering to those of others up ahead of us.

This is what it means to really love and be loved. This is what it feels like to be held in and led by love. This is what it feels like to say “yes” to ourselves and our transformation. This…is where all our choices should come from, and where our choosing will always be challenged to come from. This is what it feels like to truly live – to know that love is always at your side, bellowing from the other side, and beckoning you homeward.

If you can feel all of this… welcome home, for this is where your truest heart rests even in its insatiable restlessness of always wanting more and more. If you cannot in this moment feel any of this… perhaps your heart is asking for more of you to reside inside it, to know it, revere it, honour it, remember it… once again and maybe, this time, for always.

Experiencing Oneness At A Busy Beach

Published on by Jelelle AwenLeave a comment

 

 

beach-1867285__340

By Jelelle Awen

 

It is the busy season here where I live in the resort town of Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. It is my first season here experiencing this as I spent the last two winters in Mexico at a remote ranch about three hours from here. I haven’t been to the ocean to swim in awhile as my focus has been very inward, lengthly periods of meditation, and then expressing and serving SoulFullHeart outwardly mostly through writing. Today, Raphael and I both felt a desire to take in the detoxifying ocean waters, float on our boogie boards while meditating, soak in vitamin C in the form of sunlight.
 
I was amazed as we walked along the main beach in town, Los Muertos Beach, how many people there were located in such a small space, clustered tightly together in beach chairs in front of Oceanside restaurants and beach clubs where you spend a certain minimum amount of pesos in exchange to sit at the ocean, have food and drink delivered to you while vendors come along every few seconds to offer you items to buy.
 
The intensity of the energy of all these people about blew me over. Every person I made eye contact with felt as if they were suddenly inside of my skin. Not only could I feel them (which as an empathic healer is the norm) I felt like I WAS them. I admit that it scared part of me because it was intense. I could feel their emotional reality, like I was looking out of their eyes at the world. I could feel their pain, I could feel their desires. Oh, and they seemed to be so full of both! They are here on vacation, so much desire for goodness and wanting to experience the best things in life for them: ocean, fun, sun, food, drink.
 
I pulled my aura in as tightly as I could to my body, which can help when feeling a lot of intense energies around you. I turned my focus to the aerating energy of the negative ions in the air and the rumble sound of the waves crashing on the shore. I sent as much love and light as I could to every person that I became joined with.
 
We walked to the very end of the beach which is our favorite spot as it is cut off by hills on two sides and the energy is good there, the water is clear, and the waves are sometimes mellower. Plus, there were about 95% less people there and only a few vendors. My heart opened up as I had some space to breathe, go in the water with Raphael, soak in the sun, watch and feel people from more of a distance on the shore.
 
It was amazing to me to see how many people felt comfortable in high density frequencies, literally crammed in with so many other people. It seemed to be more comforting to be externally focused and surrounded by distractions. This, to me, is a good, relatable example of third dimensional or 3D consciousness. It is the sense that going along feels better than being different. It is more comfortable to go outward then go within. It is reassuring to be in crowds of people. The energies that were very overwhelming to me were acceptable to their 3D selves and even comforting.
 
Fourth or fifth dimensional consciousness (4D and 5D) is represented in the desire for physical and energetic space. Being drawn to spaces that offer some ‘breathing room’ where you can be with your own energy and check in with yourself. The choice of where to sit on the beach seems so simple in one way but it also can be telling. I have sat in the beach chairs by the restaurants before and I probably will again, just not when it is so busy and also when I am less sensitive and opened up as I am right now during this time of intensifying energies that are integrated and vibrational frequency upgrade into deeper 5D realities. Or maybe when more of these energies integrate and I can beam out love without feeling overwhelmed.
 
I am not judging without love any of this or the people as I offer this example to illustrate the difference in the vibrational frequencies of 3D, 4D, and 5D. I wanted to weep at both their desire AND their pain. I wanted to weep with compassion for them and for myself and even as I felt different from them I also felt deeply connected to them and KNOW that we are all ONE. I am not an elitist about ascension. I want the entire human race to all raise up together our frequency to compassion, peace, love, non-violence, embracement of our soul gifts, etc. I often feel as if we cannot if even one of us is not and yet, also, I feel at the same time, how it just isn’t what some souls will choose or are meant to choose. And, their journey and choices are as sacred as mine or any one else’s.
 
Being inside of others and them inside of me like I experienced today is an aspect of the awakenings into Oneness that are happening for me more and more. I admit that it is going to take time to get used to some of this even as it has been many years of this process. I also feel, as many others do, that the energetic frequencies of Gaia, the sun, and even the solar system are amplifying everything immensely, which has an impact on our sensitivity and capacity to feel others too. Overall, I feel grateful for the experience as it allowed me the opportunity to truly feel how connected we all are even with our individuality and the opportunity to teach on the dimensional frequencies from a relatable place. I’m left with a sense of the connection that all of us have to each other even as we can seem so separate in other ways.

Moving Beyond 3D Life Patterns

Published on by Kasha RosaLeave a comment

transcending-this-world

By Leena Colibri

 

There’s a place inside of hesitation, of pause, where parts of us feel uncertain that a life that feels better could actually BE better…

There are feelings and pictures, offering possibilities of what it could be like to live beyond our usual picture of what is “normal” for us, giving us a sense of what life could be like if we could move beyond our feelings of competition, comparison, self-doubt, self-criticism, and deep unworthiness to be loved and even deeply respected to the point of reverence. We often play out the same scenarios over and over again, with different actors but similar energy and lines of speech. This self-sabotage has become known, and though we dislike it, there is something familiar and uncomfortably comfortable about it.

This is an intense aspect of the experience of what we call the 3D self – The “you” you have likely known to be you for all or most of your life. Perhaps at times you’ve questioned where this conditioning and these thoughts come from and have made efforts to heal them once and for all. On your very sacred and personal path of ascension, this 3D self can be challenging to move through, yet the invitation is always there. Much of this process moves us beyond the mental and into the realm of the heart. There isn’t much to “figure out” or even understand in this place of 4D and 5D reality… it just is, as you are, and always have been….

The journey to embracing what could be beyond the reality you have held as real is laid before you.
There are doorways you can choose to walk through that offer you a higher vibration for your way of BEing. There are paths that facilitate a deeper relationship with yourself and help to illuminate these choice points of where you can enter a higher dimension by way of claiming an acute expression of your as yet misunderstood and under-held power.

In SoulFullHeart, we are here to serve you, should you feel ready to make the space for your own movement beyond 3D reality as you have constructed and known it to be…

My Deepest Heart’s Love Song

Published on by Kasha RosaLeave a comment

1185459_772858502747658_471363934_n

By Leena Colibri

Two magics of a different kind

Meant to dance together though opposite,

Intended to weave together a tapestry

Of sweet intimate love and fiery passion.

 

The love mosaic we create together

And the dance steps we make up

Give us the juice we need to keep finding ourselves

And each other

Again, again and, possibly, again…

 

A two-step with endless possibilities

And an infinite ceiling

Of deep respect and admiration

Watches over us as we find those tensions

That keep it all alive.

 

In a ying-yang mess of body parts

We breathe onto each other’s skin

And into each others hearts,

Blowing on the embers of the hottest love

As it cascades through each of our chakras

In a timing we can’t plan.

 

Your mental prowess and creative expression

Impresses and presses upon my forest heart

Teeming with alchemical creation

And the consciousness we each bring towards the other

Only serves to prolong the ongoing ache

For more, more and, most likely, more….

 
For now the sediment of a unsettled filtering process

Careens towards the bottom of my life’s holdings

Waiting for the unfolding

Of what could be

The greatest, fiercest, most deeply claimed romance

This heart and body have ever seen.

Surrendering to Love as a Daily Practice

Published on by Kasha RosaLeave a comment

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 Freedom to be an Expert Experimenter and not an Expert

Published on by Kasha RosaLeave a comment

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…
