Guided Meditation — Body Image and Self-Esteem

One of the key factors in our life experience is our self-esteem regarding our body image. How much do we accept our own bodies. Are we good enough to be …?

Are we good enough to have …?

Are we good enough to do …?

This depends entirely on our own self-esteem. Although our bodies have something to do with how others treat us, the most important factor is how we view ourselves.

If we hold an image of our bodies as being messed up then we have a negative impact on our bodies as well as our self-image and self-confidence.

If we think we are our bodies, then we are building esteem for the wrong self.

We build esteem for our bodies by seeing their true perfection. The first step in doing that is accepting them the way they are. They are okay the way they are.

What affect does acceptance have on our health?

Well, first of all, let me tell you that I am no authority on health.

However, many people believe that we have an energetic blueprint for our bodies. This energetic blueprint affects the condition of our bodies. The idea is that the blueprint comes first. The actual body condition comes some time later.

If you were fortunate enough to see the movie “What the Bleep”, you saw microscopic pictures of water after the water was exposed to prayer, positive thoughts, and various negative emotions.

The results were astonishing!!!

The microscopic pictures of the water exposed to negative emotions and thoughts looked like a real mess. However, the pictures of the positive emotion exposed water looked like nature’s works of art. They were harmonious and beautiful.

Imagine what effect emotions have on our body!!!

In a later scene, the main character looked into a mirror and dramatically exclaimed unkind words about her body. This normally beautiful woman looked quite unattractive.

Fortunately, the leading character had a realization. She started loving herself and painted loving art work all over her body. Her whole appearance changed. She looked beautiful again. She was happy. She accepted and loved herself.

Have you ever tried to fight off negativity?

You probably noticed that it was a never ending battle. We might temporarily succeed by placing ourselves inside a protective egg shell where all the “bad stuff” is outside. Our world can get smaller and smaller as we do that. Pretty soon there’s nothing left but us in our shrinking eggshell watching a Mary Poppins video.

In other words, have you ever tried to get rid of something by resisting it?

What happened? Did it keep coming back? Could there be a better way?

Yes, fortunately there is a better way. We can observe something and accept it the way it is. This doesn’t mean we mentally push it away by telling ourselves that we accept it.

Can we really accept something? Can we allow it to continue forever? If we really can, then magic happens. That something can lift off. I can’t promise that you can change physical reality. But I’m also not saying that you can’t.

I can tell you from experience that you can change your emotional and mental experience.

By accepting your body the way it is, you change the energetic blueprint of your body. And …

It feels good.

Are you ready to get started? Please make sure your computer sound is not muted. Speakers are okay. However, it would be better to use earphones.

Guided Meditation — The Perfect Self

When we see everything as its’ true essence, we see that it’s all perfect the way it is.

I lost track of that a few days ago and posted an old article and an old guided meditation with a different viewpoint. However, this blog is about seeing the Divine Essence of All That Is.

So the old article is gone. Here is a guided meditation about seeing ourselves as perfect.

Work – A Masterpiece of Joy, Love, and Art

Work can be a masterpiece of joy. This applies to just about any work. We can be cleaning up after horses. Or we can be running a major corporation. We could be earning below minimum wage. Or we could be making a seven figure income.

In just about any case our work can be a masterpiece of joy.

How do we do this? It depends on how we look at it. When we look at things differently, we experience them differently. And quite often the things we’re looking at change.

For example, if we’re doing house cleaning for a living, we can dedicate our work to God and / or our families. We can recognize that we’re bringing order and cleanliness to a part of the world.

We can choose to make the housework a masterpiece of art. Perhaps we can do something special to make the house slightly more beautiful.

We can work while we’re observing our selves with love and observing the environment with love. There are many such processes in this blog.

We can work while improving our ability to see the hidden beauty in everyone and everything.

Intention is key. If we’re working with the intention of getting away from the work, we’re likely to suffer. If we work with the intention of contributing to some worthy cause, our work can be joyous.

If we work to serve our clients, employers, or consumers then the work can be a happy experience.

We can do this even if we’re unemployed or retired. There always some area requiring work. It might be helping ourself. It might be helping friends. It might be some form of volunteer work. It might be working at finding a job. It might be creating a business. It might be doing a blog 🙂

Working with joy improves our overall well being.

Young Artist Inspired By God

There has been a recent phenomenon that has been documented by CNN and now YouTube.

A 12 year old prodigy named Akiane Kramarik taught herself to paint when she was six years old. She started having visions of God when she was four years old. A few months ago she decided to learn the piano. Now she is composing music.

You’ll be amazed by the following videos. Akiane is truly inspired by God.

Guided Meditation – Observing Your self

The best way to get out of a thinking frenzy or uncomfortable emotions is to simply step out.

Huh? Yes! When you observe yourself you step out of all that stuff. Voila!!! Instant relief!!!

In meditation, self observation is the most important and fundamental step. Unfortunately, many self help systems overlook this completely.

The idea is to observe your self without judgement.

Have you spent years trying to quiet your mind? Okay, let’s experience a quiet mind right now.

After you’ve done the guided meditation, you probably feel quite relaxed.

Would you like to do this every day?

Observing with Love

Observing anything with love raises us to a higher level of consciousness and happiness. We can observe our toenails with love and wind up feeling better.

That’s one of the great things about living life in a state of appreciation. We wind up feeling wonderful. We feel better and better all the time. Others feel it too.

Expressing Gratitude and Creativity

When we see the good things in life, and acknowledge them by expressing gratitude, we encourage the further creation of good things.

Expressing Gratitude and Feeling Good

Expressing gratitude to others is a step towards Oneness. Not only that, it feels really good.
