What is Ascension?
Ascension is a process which everyone is going through right now. The intensification of Earth’s energies is forcing changes in everyone, spiritual seeker or not. The changes are raising humanity’s vibration. People are holding more light and, as a result, are capable of being more and doing more than ever before.
For many, these times are trying and uncomfortable on all levels—physical, emotional, mental and spiritual, but they hold positive benefits for all of mankind. Ascension symptoms include: headaches, aches and pains that tend to move from one place to another, feeling a lack of purpose, feeling vibrations in the body, emotional ups and downs, anxiety, waking at night, feeling light-headed or not totally connected to the body, changing food choices, unexplainable fatigue, feeling pushed to go in new directions, no interest in things that aren’t vibrating at the same level you are and more.
Spirit thanks us for our efforts moving through this challenging time and says that we are to be congratulated.
Keep the Flow
So what can be done to go through these times with grace and ease? The most important thing to do is keep the energy flowing in and through the body and aura (the energy field surrounding the body). Ascension Tips will cover ways to move energy in the coming months. Here are just a few:
Take care of the body: eat high vibratory foods and exercise
Receive energy sessions like Reiki, Integrated Energy Therapy (IET) and Shamballa
Breathe deeply and with conscious intent to direct the energy and open meridians
Meditate
Use crystals
Live from a position of love
Live from Your Heart
Because it’s February, the month most associated with love, it’s appropriate to start with a discussion of living from the heart-center, not the ego or mind. The “heart-center,” is the heart chakra in the center of the chest, the seat of love in the body. Most people live from their heads and thoughts.
Operating from love has many benefits, including keeping thoughts of fear away, broadening perspectives beyond ego-thoughts and raising vibrations. The vibration of love is a very high vibration, which is why people feel light and happy when they are feeling love. The higher vibration allows energies to move more easily through the body.
In all interactions, attempt to operate from the heart. Get in touch with something lovable about the other person—even if it is simply their humanity. Respond from that place of love and the result will be kindness and compassion.
Operating from love helps one see other reasons for the other person’s behavior which may be, on the surface, undesirable. Once the fear, insecurity, worry and anger driving the behavior are seen, the interactions become very easy and drama-free. The other person lets down their defenses and they are much more likely to respond from a more loving place as well.
Heart-Centered Exercise
To move into the heart-center, try the following:
Sit quietly. Feel where your consciousness is. For most, it will feel like the consciousness is in the head. Take a deep breath and relax. Intend that it drop down into your heart. Use the breath to move it there and keep it there. Feel warmth build in your chest.
Many will find that their consciousness only stays there for a moment. That’s okay. Practice regularly and it will become easier and easier to move it to the heart-center and keep it there. It will be especially helpful to move the conscious attention into the heart-center when dealing with people that prove challenging. The challenges will melt away. Operating from the heart will also increase energy levels when fatigued.
Being in the heart-center will keep the energy flowing and raise vibrations, making outside energies from the environment and other people easier to handle.
