Material Well-Being

Material Well-Being

I did a session today where I was helping someone develop their financial independence, which involved learning that their relationship with Source is the thing that provides, not other people or jobs or any other forms.

This comes up pretty often so I thought it would be a good thing to do a focused recording on. So I started with these questions:

“What needs to happen for us to know, beyond a doubt, that Source is our source of material well-being? How can we learn to receive that material well-being with ease and joy?”

The first thing that popped into my mind was the beginning of a chant:

“God is my source, I am his first creation. Before time, before beginnings, I am.”

So that’s at the beginning of the recording. It’s a peice of a chant I learned last year when I was in Nelson, BC. I went to some Gregorian chant classes, where the teacher put the psalm tones to Divine Feminine wisdom teachings from the bible.

In response to the questions, the first thing I heard was ‘How do you know you are loved?’ along with a chuckle and the statement ‘You are love.’ I remember facilitating some work on the brain to change our tendency to see things in a cause and effect framework.

It seemed they were funny questions because the material world wouldn’t even exist without us and our consciousness. So everything in it, Source is creating through us. We are creators of wealth. It’s important to remember that we consciously create our experience through listening to Source as it comes through us in the form of feelings, images and intuitions (the dreambody), and this applies to wealth as much as anything else.

There was also a part of the healing showing our creation process paralleling our night dreaming process — we don’t feel dis-empowered by our dreams because we know they are *our* dreams. The process to become conscious of creating in life is somewhat like the ability to become lucid while dreaming.

Through the dreambody we are each receiving huge amounts of information that we do not translate and do not use. I kept seeing the image of this particular ‘material well-being’ information as being absorbed by the sides of the abdomen. If we could go inside and learn to hear this information, we would find that every instruction on how to get what we want is in there already. Where to look, where to go, who to speak to and when, all in there.

I also received the idea that we create wealth through connecting with others with whom we have a spiritual chemistry and through that connection we enlarge our channel and multiply what we can receive. Having a child is an example of that on a physical level. Through these creative relationships with others, we add more love and abundance to the universe.

In order to be drawn towards those people who we are meant to create with, we need to be in touch with who we are, and feel good about ourselves. I did some work with the statement ‘I know who I am.’

Another theme that emerged was ‘I am an extension of nature‘. If we follow our instincts, we are provided for, just as animals are. I felt that the cultures who have most successfully produced wealth (a high standard of living was common and sustainable) are those who understood their place in the cosmos — they understood their connections and used what was already provided by nature. We are provided with all the raw materials we need to create almost anything.

These concepts around knowing who one is, having a felt sense of being an extension of nature, and understanding our place in the cosmos, all revolved around a deep sense of rightness about our existence. Love has created us and we create through love. Loving our “materiality” is key to allowing Source to use that love to guide us in creating material well-being.

Rejuvenation

Rejuvenation

Since I’m a single parent, I thought it was fitting that one of the first recordings I put up is called “Rejuvenation”. Something I often need because I rarely get the normal amount of sleep. (I honestly don’t think I would have survived the first three years of my child’s life without energy work!)

I started out with this toning intending on filling myself up and anyone who listens to the recording. Early on, I got that getting enough minerals is very important to feeling energetic — mainly because dehydration is a main cause of fatigue. Water = Life. I also got the idea that when we spend time in nature there is an exchange of elements there — so for instance at the beach we literally pick up and internalize minerals that help rejuvenate us. Being by the sea and eating sea plants and animals provide us with nutrients that restore, revitalize and balance our systems. So I tried to put some work in there to enhance the body’s ability to absorb and retain minerals.

Then the question moved on to ‘what needs to happen to hold on to this filled up place, this sense of rejuvenation?’ One of the keys is spending most your time doing stuff you like. And intertwined with doing that are the ideas ‘everything is really okay‘ and ‘I have the right to be myself‘. Feeling that you have the right to be yourself and do what you feel like doing essentially means your system has permission to follow it’s own impulses, which keeps it naturally regenerated.

The next section was entrenching this concept that we can have access to a constant stream of energy, and that we don’t have to ever feel tired or fatigued. Our bodies can switch over to a place where we have an always available and abundant source of vitality, but we have to believe that is an option.

When I looked at what the structure of that ever-abundant energy flow appears like in a person running it, I got the picture of someone who is sustained by a divine energy tap in such a way that they are constantly giving out energy, and when that energy touches others, they are also able to tap into that rejuvenating stream. There is something self-sustaining in the process of giving that energy out to others and rejuvenating them. I recalled that biblical phrase “He who refreshes others, is he himself refreshed.

At the conclusion and deepest layer, I saw that the rejuvenation process comes from the remembering and acceptance of ourselves as divine beings. We are part and parcel of energy that is from beyond the realm of fill up/run down. It always is and it always was, without beginning and without end — it’s sustenance is in it’s eternal Beingness.

(By the way, I’m pretty sure that repeat listenings of this one is a good idea: not just to refresh you when you need it, but I think that each listen would improve your ability to live in that ‘never get tired’ zone.)
