Consciousness and the Golden Pelvis


Joan and I enjoyed out time at the Conscious Wellness Expo in Kent, Wa. What I noticed from the people who stopped at our booth were people not familiar with Consciousness Technologies and Heart Centered Awareness. They were feeling unsettled about the world and looking for something. When I connected them to themselves as Consciousness, the Peace that they were looking for was present. Free of the emotional hype media train we can find ourselves riding.

Peace is in each of us. If you need help, listen to our radio show "Conscious Conversations with Joan and Janet" each week on the CTR Network or at your convenience. Or email me directly at janetb@janetandbeyond.com and set up a session.  Love, j


Hello,

Most often our groups are composed of both men and women. This last Thursday we were all women and that presented an opportunity. Feminine at play.

We were noticing last week our sense of Peace and the political energies playing out at the Republican convention. This week it is the opportunity of the Democratic Party to gather and see how they are going to choose to engage in their sense of drama and humor. All the name calling and mudslinging that has been present on both sides has been annoying and childish and demeaning. It feels very little boy male and then females playing by the same rules. None of us are better for it. Can it be different? What if we wanted it to be different?

We were wanting to allow for a female Dalai Lama to show up. Nothing wrong with the male Dalai Lama. Just that a female one would add a dimension not currently present in our political arenas. Moderate in tone and sound bringing out the best in us and guiding us along. Can one be feminine and powerful and harmonious without a male veneer? Do we have to support old regimes of role playing?

Did what we notice in group last week make a difference? I can choose to say yes or I can choose to say no. I can choose to align with the awareness that I, as an individual am powerful enough to affect the world in some way. We are each like a bit of sourdough starter that can make and replicate itself enough to make loaves of bread or I can take the position that synchronicity is present or I can go with the thought that what I think doesn't matter.

What feels better and more in alignment with a sense of Well Being from a sincere place?

What showed up was a female pelvis. Hovering in space right in front of us. The women present in group represented different aspects of feminine power and senses of physical, emotional, mental shades of what it is to be female and feminine. Women of a certain age and pelvises filled with stories of rape, great sex, okay sex, no sex, no feeling, confused feelings, abandonment, prolapsed floors, confused bladder signals, parts removed, etc., all kinds of states held in the female pelvis. Love and atrocities in the same space.

We were sitting in Heart Centered Awareness and sharing conversation about our pelvises in an unfolding state of patterns up for play. What if our pelvis and the parts and then energy held within our pelvic bowls had a sense of Well Being? What if our stories became stories of Well Being?

And then the pelvis turned golden. and it started to pulse. Outward ripples started to fill the air. The dynamic was observed moving through us, filling us, and moving up and out.

What would it be like to have your pelvis feel golden? Priceless, beyond compare, appreciated, and loved?  In the Infinite Sea of Potential, we notice a changed feeling, allow our thinking to reflect the change and reality is now malleable.

Access heart centered awareness and notice for yourself.

Is what we each are, a well being, filled with well being for self and others enough? We look forward to this coming week.

Love,

Consciousness at PEACE/ Can You FEEL PEACE RIGHT NOW?

Hello Out There,
(I wrote the following last Thursday afternoon Pacific. With the time difference events in Nice, France had happened. I did not hear about it until later that night. And then on Sunday, a man was shooting with intention to kill and harm. I am always struck by synchronistic actions in the world. Peace is what is needed. Love, j)

I am sitting here Thursday afternoon which is last week already. It will be Monday when you receive this. And Monday is going to have turbulence to it. Politics are at play in the United States as they are elsewhere in the world. Always, and the bigger the country you would think bigger the stakes. But, each of us live somewhere in the world and what is happening to you there is the Big Deal and can have repercussions that resonate to me here and back to you.

What is resonating here, right now, after group is PEACE. Strong enough that I am moved to comment on it NOW. My question to you is "Can you feel PEACE, RIGHT NOW, a few days later?  My sense is that this Peace is rippling out in waves of Grace. It is effecting all it comes up and over and against. Can you feel PEACE RIGHT NOW?

Five of us gathered and allowed ourselves to acknowledge what was and is happening politically in this country. We are looking forward to what and who have gathered and not gathered and will happen in committee, in convention this week and next. In this state of awareness anything is possible. It is a political national stage and Potential is alive and well. Can you feel it?

If you take out the emotions that are running high, what do you have left? What do you have left when we allow ourselves to just sit and acknowledge what we are experiencing in our sensory pathways? How do those, who we allow to play on the big stage represent our interior space? How do they articulate our fears, our compromises, our smallness and reflect the integrity of our nation? How have we allowed business and bankruptcy to equate to good will towards men? We are seeing those who are bankrupt of common sense, of compassion for one another and who are expressing from a very small unhappy place within. The genders don't matter except in how they play to our expectations and presumptions.  It has magnified in grotesqueness and bravado. Where is dignity present and valued?

If we take the faces and forms off the actors in front and look beyond power displays and the grand theatre, it all starts to shrink. They start to shrink. If we allow for something not currently present, which is a voice of moderation, and compassion for both the bully and victim energies present on both sides, maybe there is something that can come forth not currently on display. We have to allow for something new to show up. We can allow for what is missing. A female Dali Lama we decided.

There are grand forces at play and in play everywhere. Such is Consciousness which does not limit. It starts in each of us. As we allow for our Heart Centered Awareness to be present and this stage of Life and what we each are allowing others to give voice to, it gets quiet. Peace is resonating.

Please. Take time to stop today. Your thinking, your assumptions and presumptions. Note the clutter, hysteria, the wound. Sit on the toilet, focus, love what shows up and void.  Can you feel the Peace? If you focus and feel the Peace that is all there is. It will be enough. We are that powerful.


Love,

Consciousness and the Habituated Thought

Hello All,

Habituated thoughts can be like choice fruit. You can have a handful but you are going to only pick the same one over and over. It becomes mesmerizing. It has this seductive quality. It reaches someplace inside that other thought doesn't reach. We slip into thinking that it is the only one that will do. It can be the curse wrapped up in the enchantment that lures us in and then we are caught.

In group and with clients and with ourselves we were coming up against the habituated thought.

Is there a new way to consider them? Using our consciousness technologies and accessing heart centered awareness is the trick. and it isn't a trick but a way of life. A new way to look at, or feel our way to new levels of thoughts. We will always be thinking. What if it was easier to just shift what doesn't serve us as it once did? Do we have that ability? Do we have the necessary framework in place and flexibility of thought to allow for something new to appreciate and hold our focus?Are we ready for new discernments as Consciousness?

What came up was the willingness to wait. To wait with the thought and allow it to be. In waiting and not trying to do something or to judge how we felt about the thought it started to change on its' own a bit. All thought has consciousness in it. We have created it. So depending on how we relate to our thoughts, meaning can be observed and chosen. If we are neutral and without the bias that created the thought originally change can happen in the observation.

A client is 90 years old. She was impressed with her logic about how she was not lovable, though others loved her. She felt that it was not possible to love herself and her story supported that when she was a child and it led to thinking a certain way for a long, long time. Yet, that was coming not from logic in her experiences but in skewed logic which is not the same thing, is it? Her sense of logic was coming from her biases that fulfilled her story beliefs which was not the same that others used to view her. The awareness hit her right between the eyes. Her habituated thought about herself in the scheme of things came loose.

Maybe feeling different in some way is only for a moment in the total of a life. Condition comes and then it goes and then it comes back with a seeming vengeance. What is key is that it was a condition as something, then it changed and then it changed again. It did not come back the same it came back differently. Obviously there are forces at play, information engaged.

Just return to Heart Centered Awareness and wait and notice what shows up.

Love,

Consciousness Out of TimeSpace/ Anchors Aweigh

Hello,

For those of us who gather in group here, we have been busy the last month or so. We have welcomed new explorers and their willingness to join in brings much up for all of us. Many of us have been giving up degrees of self definition and the limits of collective thinking for many years now.

Those joining us serve to remind us of how far we have come. We too, were like them once. We had a sense of the world and self that was unsatisfying. We now relate to our stories as reference material.

We tend to think in terms of placement and measurement, distance, time and space when we contemplate where we are in life. Where we are is important to each of us. We tend to think of how far from our first sense of home we have come. How far in terms of latitude and longitude and in accomplishment. How much we are different from the family, or similar. The family is familiar, as is the neighborhood. Sometimes we never live far away, still in the same community. We gain comfort in the familiar even if it might pain us emotionally or physically.

We will always have that first sense of home within to orient us. It is going to serve as a point of reference as we go through life. It can remain, acting as anchor and keeping us in one place of origin and we can also allow it to not serve as an anchor. We can now center within. We can hear our own truths, separated out from the maddening crowd of voice that have homogenized into a whining sound.

It doesn't take any courage to listen to ourselves, just a willingness. If you make it about courage then you make your reality filled with the stuff that goes with it: Fight, lost causes, no way to win, warrior etc., etc., etc..the good die young. This morphic field is full of stuff you will have to tangle with.

There is nothing wrong with doing life this way. As there is no wrong. It does work the justification button well. Which is about keeping track and the total outcome. Forgiveness and forgetting come into play. Much will happen as a result that brings both a sense of good and also the duality of it, the bad and all that go with that.

If you make your Life reality set about Consciousness at Play, always, then Being just got a whole lot easier. Warmth, support, non judgment, acceptance, and appreciation just stepped in. Life may end and you can still be at peace. If you separate out the drone in your head that comes with keeping you small and maybe safe you might show up different. You might have a sense of fearlessness that transforms itself into just being expressive without boundary.

What would it be like for YOU to realign and to step in and play? In what terms would you measure your experience?

We have put so much emphasis on Be Happy, not BEING HAPPY in our culture which is really about how unhappy we are inside, individually and then collectively. You can feel the difference. Nobody wants to be told to be anything.

Making the time to indulge in accessing Heart Centered Awareness, filled with Potential, and listening to the quiet sacred within share, is not an act of indulgence. It is an act of Life vitality looking to explore to it's fullest. There is so much to explore and share within.

Love,

Consciousness Adventuring/ Using the Light the Path is Clear



Hello All, 

Sometimes the path is clearly lit. We might know we have to step with awareness for there are rocks along the path. And, what we see ahead isn't always the warmest looking destination. It can look like more storm ahead. And yet there we go, through the opening that is in front of us. Because we know where we have been and the light on our path and through the opening leads us onward.

Often our work is like this. Living is like this. "Been there, done that. Don'want to do that again." we might be inclined to say. So with awareness and knowing that we are on an adventure we continue on our way. 

We are adventurers. To be human is to explore. Some of us choose to explore in the minutia of life and some take big steps outward. Consciousness is without boundaries, allowing for all. Humans set up the limits and definitions. In Consciousness there is no right, no wrong, no anything. No judgments. And you can perhaps feel how some part of yourself may challenge that or feel uncomfortable. Which is exciting. 

It is exciting because you have just become aware. Because before you react, which can be a hair trigger moment, there was this moment of "OH", that feels good or that does not feel so good. Which is the human gaining awareness. And, in the right state of being, of Heart Centered Awareness you can pause and let yourself notice what is happening. What is getting triggered and what do you choose to do about it. The automatic response is on notice now. Control now has a chance to shift just a bit into more of a flow moment and allow for something new if wanted. It can be subtle or send the rocks in motion. When they settle you can notice that the path is now clear. 

Let go of the judgments today and see what happens. If that seems challenging let go of them for the next hour. Operate with no assumptions. Access Heart Centered Awareness and allow for your awareness of the light there to light your way and operate out of it for the next hour as you interact in your world. Notice the "Oh" moments and then your thoughts and actions. This is the Sea of Potential we are accessing here. Where every thing is not a thing yet, just bits and pieces, flotsam and jetsam, waiting to become some thing else. A new pattern, a new behavior. Where what was can be no longer and can become some thing else. 

The path is clear no matter what might seem to be in the way. 

Love, janet

Consciousness Playground/ See, Hear, Speak

Hello All,




See, Hear, Speak

My heart is open.
See No Evil, Hear No Evil, Speak No Evil
How hard is it?

I hear voices from out there and echos in here,
See No Good, Hear No Good, Speak No Good
See No Joy, Hear No Joy, Speak No Joy.
See No Love, Hear No Love, Speak No Love.
See No Soul,  Hear No Soul, Speak No Soul.
My heart constricts.

Consciousness waits.
My heart unfolds and expands and expands and expands.
See No Evil, Hear No Evil, Speak No Evil.
Think No Evil, Feel No Evil. Want No Evil.

There is only quiet and the breath of All.
There are only choices that lead to actions.
That lead to experiences and outcomes.

Consciousness allows for all. And waits.


Love,
