As adults we often have a different perspective than children do with the world of play.  We adults use play as forms of exercise, sports, competition, self-improvement and the most popular stress relief.     In the strategy of play as stress relief we have fun and/or are entertained as a way to escape our adult world.  It also serves us in that we adjust out of the tensions that our body is locked in to soothe us, relax.  It creates excitement within us that is energizing.  We need to play.

There is much that adults can expand upon in the ways a child plays.  Children play in a more creative way.  They are open to experience playful fun in a wider variety of ways.  They relish it.  A child has a more concentric point of view towards play in that they do it in 360 degree perspective where as adults lean to a more linear perspective, “I play when I bicycle and meet-up with my friends.  When I work I only work.”

A normal child can find play in almost any situation.  They crave it and intrinsically know that it is very important.

What we can learn from children is how creativity is an integral part of play.  It is an important vehicle to explore, imagine, build and be sensual.  We forget the creative side of play by doing things like painting, photography, building a decorative garden or writing a story for pleasure.  It ignites something inside of us that turns us on to living.  When we are turned on in such ways we become more opened, curious and less predictable.

How many adults do you know that do not play well are frightfully boring?   How many adults do not seek play intrinsically but wish to be entertained?  We often misidentify that we need to seek entertainment outside of us instead of activating our creativity within and as a result our selves to find something better than entertainment, joyful satisfaction.

Sometimes it feels good to do sensual playful things, to simply rub our bare feet on the warm earth.  Walk in the rain or snow. Sensuality is an important part of play.  How many adults would relish walking barefoot in the mud and enjoy the squishy sensations between out toes.  Yet if we had that attitude would lovemaking be different.

As adults we would be more whole persons if we sought play and relaxation too not only fulfill our adult needs but the child within us as well.

When I talk to people about what they would like to create in their life so many begin to talk about things that they would like to have.  It sometimes comes from a perspective of becoming more aware, having more inner freedom and it should bring more money in their life.  So many people say, “If I am creating a magical life why not create more money?”

It is a good question but being rich has many judgments about it from the individual standpoint, from people around the world and through out history.  Due to its place of significant importance around the planet it can be difficult to make big changes in short amounts of time.

Instead of making money our measuring stick to determine if we are more aware or successful; what if we look to various areas of our life instead.  Wealth is a holistic way of being.  To begin it might be good to look at some of the attitudes we have that prevent us from receiving more of life.

To change our perspectives around wealth it may be wiser to look at how much of our life do we feel happy and complete about.  How much of the time are we satisfied with our selves?  How much of the time are we doubtful that we are good enough for others?  How much of the time do we spend blaming others for our struggles?  How much of our time are we resenting others?  Just to name a few considerations of where our energy may be going instead of creating transformation in our life.

If we are recreating negativity in our life we are sending our life force to those self-defeating endeavors.  They could be used as an energy to generate something of a more productive intention.  It is one of the keys in creating our dreams.  Directing where our intention is going in every single moment of the day in a way that creates growth for us.  One of our true life goals.

If we learn to grow within ourselves, to be able to center our intentions to our dreams we will create more of what we desire.  It might come in the ways of wealth or it may be something else.  Every individual is different so there is no set formula or procedure.

I bring the focus to becoming more aware.  It is generally a process of identification of my limitations, processing them and allowing them to transform.  It brings in a new space for something to grow in my life.  Then I like to follow what is exciting for me and develop it with a passion.  It is funny but I seem to receive more of everything in life when I am true to this formula and am guided by my bliss.  It is like a message to a greater source that I am whole and deserve everything in life that wholeness has to offer.  It comes in a variety of ways and money is one of them.

It all begins by listening within and the wide variety of riches follows.

In his autobiography Barack Obama admitted to a wilder youth than any other presidential candidate in history.  He admittedly did illegal drugs.  I am so relieved that Barack did both accounts of sharing his past honestly and that he had a wilder side, much like most of us.

Looking at Obama’s life he was forced to become an exceptional student as his mother pushed him and influenced a highly disciplined mind to come forth.  It only makes sense that there would be a time of rebellion for Barack by doing things like drugs.  Of course he returned to the ways his mother taught him that groomed him to the path of greatness.

The healthiest perspective is that the confession in his book means that Barack is willing to reveal his darker sides.  Many of our presidential and political presidents cover up any deflect of character to the public.  Even worse cover it up to themselves.   Then of course the behavior has to come out in some shape or form.  In the words of Carl Jung, “If the shadow (or dark side) of a person is not confronted and revealed it will come out as more animalistic.”  The shadow has come out in many brutal ways of these people that suppress the sides that they are ashamed of, angry about or in fear.

I remember George Bush on Oprah Winfrey when running for his first presidency stating he had issues.  When Oprah asked if he would like to share them with the audience George responded, “Heck no! I’m running for president.”  At the time it was cute and charismatic something for everyman type of persona however George changed once into the office as more of an eliteist and one that did not advocate for the common man.  If only we could have seen his shadow before office.

How many of our politicians have been caught in scandals of sexual or financial nature. The seduction of power through money stems from unresolved fears that a person is not enough.  We all have been shamed in life that we are lesser and the fix of having money or power is very tempting.

The cure for avoiding scandal is to have an ongoing rigor of honesty with our selves.  To find our freedom from the places we hold fear, anger and shame.  The more we uncover our own limits we open to an internal joy of us.  A happiness that relishes integrity as it is a reflection of our own wholeness.

In my first year of teaching I had a dream that has influenced me for the remainder of my life.  In the dream I was told of the five most important characteristics needed to be a special education teacher.  As I reviewed these five points I see that they are applicable to all of life that if we nurtured our strengths and improved our weaknesses in these five areas we would be successful in whatever we do.

1. Honesty (sincerity)
2. Desire (motivation)
3. Nurturance
4. Experience (common sense)
5. Expertise (techniques)

These are quite simple.  Just a few thoughts on the areas.  Desire is so important in life.  If we are not happy doing what we do.  It is time to re-examine our situation to find what conflict is in the way of happiness or if we simple do not enjoy what we do anymore.

If we cannot nurture ourselves and do things that fulfill us we are not re-filling the tank. We will burn-out is most likelihood.  Also how can we nurture others if we are not whole inside of us?

Experience and Expertise sometimes work hand in hand.  There is a point that our experience becomes so skilled that relying on the rules we created restrict us.  We are breaking into a new realm where we are creating from our own knowing not from other’s knowledge.  Of course it is always good to learn new information to expand our expertise but the point of learning is acclimating the information into your own world.

The more honest I become usually reflects upon the wholeness I have within me.  I am always willing to let go of my internal pains and conflicts that guides me to a more rigorous honesty and sincerity.  When we are whole magical things happen.

I was in a class with Access Energy Transformation creator Gary Douglas when Gary told the class that when we die we all become infinite in the place that we return to.  Being a devil’s advocate I asked Gary, “So if that is true, why don’t we all die and become infinite again?”

Gary responded in a most profound way, “Sure we could all die.  But just think if we could become infinite here in a body what great fun it would be.  Imagine being infinite and enjoying such pleasures as food, sex or play.  What awareness of yourself would you be interacting in with the rest of the world?  Wouldn’t that be great fun?”

That was enough of a motivational speech for me.  I wanted to see what it would be like to be in a body and become as conscious as I could possibly be.  Not as a way to get it right with god, or be admired by others, become powerful or be a miraculous healer.  I was curious of how will my life change when I become more of an infinite being?

I had heard the statement from Gary eight years ago and my intention has not changed.  The more aware I become, the more I let go of my limitations I step into a more joyful consciousness.  In some ways being more infinite is more demanding in that you do not turn yourself off with television, substances or dysfunctional relationships.  Too much television is boring, beyond small amounts of alcohol never feels good and I see the potential of crazy relationships before they happen so I do not get involved.

The choice to lead a creative life of writing, exploring, meditation, loving and finding out more of my limitations is too much fun.  With each new discovery of the lies of blocked beliefs resolved I reach a new plateau that opens more joy and awareness in my life.  It feels ecstatically good to change.  This is what the journey of become more consciousness is.

I used to think that finding oneself was a painful and hard path that was not much fun.  Who said that when we look at our mistakes and experiences that we were misused that we have to look onto these events with such dread?  True we may feel sad, anger or shame but the thing to remember is we are letting these things go and joy is around the corner as our reward.  Also the sadness, shame and anger are from our past when we most likely had lesser choices.  We as adults can choose something much better.

When we do the work and receive wholeness in our life not only is it a huge gift for us but for the world as well.  As one more person breaks free and becomes lighter it makes it easier for others to find their own way.

I thank Gary for inspiring us to find a way to become more aware that is fun.  Seriousness has its place in the world of self-improvement but we do not always have to take that path in order to change.

Giving sessions away is always a controversial topic amongst all professionals.  Some say it is honorable while others go cautiously into giving their work away.  I generally offer some of my services by love donation as I know some people cannot afford full payment.

Donna ran a day care service for toddlers out of her home.  At a recent gathering at her home she confided how she was always struggling with her business.  I thought it would be a good ideal to offer her a session being that she was doing honorable work.  I kick myself for not feeling into myself of what it would be like to donate to her life.  If I did I probably would be getting some valuable insights of why ivin a session to Donna was a bad ideal.

Donna came to my home the following Saturday dressed in shorts, orange blouse and sandals, sweating from her bicycle ride over.  During the session she used much of the time telling me the horror stories of her childhood.  I wondered why she wanted my services as the time could have been better spent doing energetic clearings on the experiences.  When I did work she interrupted me to describe more brutal parts of her life.

When leaving she told me since it was donation she would not give me anything.  In that moment I felt cheated as the agreement was not honored.  Donna left with her chest up in the air as if she was defending her position.

By not agreeing to the contract Donna betrayed herself.  It was a message to her own consciousness that she did not deserve the changes I could facilitate in her life.   By stealing or cheating others we tell the universe that we do not have the power within us to manifest it on our own.  I doubt Donna received much from our session because she was not practicing in the present a belief that she could transform.  She was choosing stay overwhelmed with her past believing it had power over her.

The evidence of the session also confirmed how Donna could not receive because the whole focus was about how horrible others had treated her.  She was unwilling to see a pain-free alternative.  One could say that she had been beaten down so hard that she could not see life changing possibilities.  Somewhere in this process a lost person has to choose that they are willing to be found and they are responsible for finding that path.  That decision opens the psyche to begin manifesting change.

I intellectually thought because Donna ran a business she had the initiative to ask for something different.  Most people that create a business do so because they take matters in their own hands for a better life.   My mistake was trusting my logical conclusion instead of asking my intuition.

A friend of mine called and asked if I would work with a woman that was struggling.  I agreed to do another love donation session.

Mau was a middle aged single mother who struggled much of her life.  The session covered various topics as we exchanged stories and clearings.

At the end of the session Mau gave me one dollar and said,  “This is all I have to offer, I wish I had more.  You certainly deserve more.”  The money was exchange and Mau graciously thanked me.

I see Mau from time to time.  She is always happy to see me and I with her.  There was no shame in the monetary exchange because Mau was grateful for my services.  She was honest with me and her self.  The contract was clear.

There is something sticky in the air when I have encounter Donna.  She avoided me in the two times we have crossed paths.

The questions I now ask in regards to sessions for love donations are:
Will this person respect me or feel they are taking advantage of me in some conscious or unconscious way?”

“Would this person be as generous to other people the way they wish me to be for them?”

“Will I feel better about myself after doing the session?”

“Will I feel better about my business after doing the session?”

In the ongoing journey of discovery our greatness I am confronted with bouts of regression to behaviors that I had though I resolved.  It feels like phantom behaviors that re-emerge to come into my mind.  It only makes sense because some of our maladaptive behaviors were used for years on end.  Now in the current years that I have committed to heal I plan to heal all of this in a matter of a few years.  I sometimes forget it is a process of peaks, plateaus and dips in the road.

When I have old behaviors return without asking I go through a process.  The first question is the behavior activated from something in my past that I have yet to discover in myself?  Next, is there something that is coming up and the behavior is the result of it?

The other day I was constantly retreating into a fantasy of being a sports star.  It is a part of my grandiose past that I used as a fantasy to escape into so I would not feel the pain I experienced as a teenager.  I have combed over these past years and felt I had discovered every part of this past.  However the past behavior continued.  I could not find any part of my past that resonated with this fantasy.  So step one was not working, time for step two.

I reflected on where the energy of the fantasy originated.  As I felt what parts of my body were stimulated the fantasy; I felt the energy resonate in my solar plexus.  That made lots of sense because the fantasy was about taking action and the solar plexus is about taking action in the world.  I knew what to do.

I began meditating on my solar plexus and sending the energy of allowance and forgiveness to that area.  Like the time when I was a teen I judged that my actions were ineffective, the fantasy was a world where I was great.  These were phantom energies acting out.  It was not a large past unresolved scenario that was hiding undiscovered.  It was something much more subtle and smaller yet it still was making a wave in my psychic.

After meditating by focusing a unconditional loving energy into the limited energy in my solar plexus it seemed to lift.  I was no longer triggered to repeatedly go into fantasy.

When we are confronted with our own behaviors and wish to let them go it is always a good general rule to ask what is our current behavior stimulated from?  It is most likely some memory of our suppressed past that is the source.  Sometimes for those that have done lots of work on themselves and perceive the undesired current behavior resolved it is a smaller phantom of something that has been resolved. But wonder why it is still coming back in some form we may need a fine-tuning of our energetic centers. Nurturing the distress area or situation may be the most effective remedy.

Author and therapist Virginia Satir writes about five freedoms that evolve when one is given unconditional love.   This would be unconditional love that begins from a parental, then our adult relationships and our own perception of our self.  The more that we receive true love we are living is a safe space to grow in our own free expression.

Below are the five freedoms of unconditional love that are the basic support of our own basic power.

1. The power to perceive, the ability to see the world in an opened way that gives you the most clarity.
2. The power to love (choose and want), to share our love with others that supports our own self-love.
3. The power to emote, to have no boundaries in perceiving our emotions and the sense of safety to express them.
4. The power to think and express, not to be required to conform to anyone else’s notions of how we should think about or value life.
5. The power to envision and imagine, when we our genuinely valued and loved we develop an autonomy within us to see the world beyond the experiences of others but to see life truly in our own set of eyes.

These freedoms have characteristics of a heigharchial system of abilities but are not necessarily conformed in such a way.  As we grow with unconditional love we will evolve in all areas in some way or form.

If we perceive that our childhood was not an environment of unconditional love it is never too late to change.  To begin, see your own life and how you are not loving your self.  Examine where you are too critical and demeaning.  You are most likely following a pattern you learned from your childhood.  Start the process of understanding the workings of the past and loving your self in the present.  Unconditional love attracts the real fruits of life to you.

Quotes from Virginia Satir

The greatest gift I can give is to see, hear, understand and touch another person. When this is done, I feel contact has been made.

Feelings of worth can flourish only in an atmosphere where individual differences are appreciated, mistakes are tolerated, communication is open, and rules are flexible – the kind of atmosphere that is found in a nurturing family.

By Bart Sharp

If we could let go of anger, fear and shame of our past, what would we become?  Something greater than we could imagine, more infinite.  We would begin to recognize the god-like being we truly are.

There are people that have actually done it.   I like to think of saints and evolved spiritual masters such as: Ghandi, The Dalai Lama, Ammachi, Sister Teresa, Saint Francis Of Assisi and many others.

Each of these masters had their individual paths to evolving.  Not all the lessons were a lesson with god although a connection to a higher power is part of the process for almost everyone.  One common trait that all of these people had is that they had to shed the human condition that the mental side created with their ego.  In that process there was a disconnection from their past emotions to their daily life.  A good example would be Nelson Mandala, he had to learn how to let go of his own anger of the white men that imprisoned him to find his own freedom while still in prison.

Somewhere is the process of confronting, resolving and forgiving our distressed emotional world we open to real freedom.  We step out of the linear judgmental world that entraps billions to letting go of the real chains in this reality (anger, shame and fears).   When we shed our judging self we open to the greater awareness that is the road to the infinite and divine.
