    Simplicity  •  3 min read
    DAY 38 of 55: Aspect #32

    “Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.”

    ~ Leonardo da Vinci

    ESSENCE: Simplify, simplify, simplify!

    Simplicity is the quality or condition of being easy to understand or do. Simplicity captures the ESSENCE of regenerative living; simple is good.

    Mahatma Gandhi wisely stated, “There is enough for everybody’s need, but not enough for anybody’s greed.” The abandonment of our materialistic mindsets is what’s called for at this time of our human evolution.

    Become practical. Contemplate every purchasing decision. Vote with our dollars. Eliminate debt. Ensure that our thoughts, emotions, decisions, behaviors, and actions align with the well-being of the Earth as well as Self and others. Reconnect with Nature. Reconnect with family and friends. Take contemplated risks. Live in the present time. And simplify, simplify, simplify!

    Sleeping Souls tend to feed right into the corporate marketing tactics that exploit the seven deadly sins—wrath, greed, sloth, pride, lust, envy, and gluttony—because that’s what sells. Violent movies, sexy advertisements, luxury cars, extravagant jewelry, cool sunglasses, designer handbags, and a host of other products all feed into the materialistic, self-indulgent wants of society. Many Sleeping Souls acquire so much stuff that their lives are filled with clutter. Some realize that a cluttered house is a cluttered mind. So they declutter their homes, as they begin to experience a sense of detachment from their stuff. This is when many Sleeping Souls come to realize that all their stuff is rather empty, and they begin to prefer a sense of freedom instead. Some begin to seek.

    Seekers tend to no longer want clutter in their lives. Some of them imagine that each possession they own has a golden cord attached to it that is connected to the heavens above. These cords surround them, so the more cords they have, the more constricted they feel. What becomes paramount in many Seekers’ lives is freedom—freedom to move around, freedom to have balance in life, freedom from debt, freedom from clutter. They tend to become very selective of their possessions, many times choosing increased freedom over stuff. With newfound freedom, many Seekers rediscover joy, happiness, love, and companionship, all of which have been long overdue.

    Awakened tend to live simply, enjoying the freedom of their lives. With their deemphasis on materialistic pursuits, time and energy opens up to nurture other aspects of life, such as relationships, physical activities, personal spiritual practices, hobbies, learning, reading, and napping. Many Awakened discover their ability to create and maintain deep and meaningful relationships with other people, doing so through a means of collaboration….

    DAILY AFFIRMATION

    I live my truth, as it protects me.

    INSIGHTS

    Are you truthful?

    Do you placate others at your own expense?

    Collaboration  •  3 min read
    DAY 39 of 55: Aspect #33

    “Teamwork divides the task and amplifies the success.”

    ~ Author Unknown

    ESSENCE: Collaboration multiplies the success.

    Collaboration is the action of working with other people to create something. Collaboration occurs with an open heart, and is an integral part of regenerative living.

    Separateness, competition, power, greed, and conformity led us to our COVID-19 global economic depression. What will change this economy is the banding together of conscious and regenerative leaders whose businesses are serving conscious consumers who vote with their dollars and hearts.

    Before too long, the corporatocracy will wane while a meritocracy prevails. Divine consciousness will return the economic and political power back to “We the People”!

    A conscious collaboration is emerging that is grounded in good intentions. Through behavioral economics we are able to create new regenerative markets by simply agreeing to change our behaviors, knowing that the economics will automatically follow. For instance, if we unite and agree to only purchase bottled water in 1 gallon jugs or larger, then the entire small bottled water industry, which creates loads of trash, will be wiped out.

    When we unite as One collective purchasing group, then we reclaim our power, forcing corporations to change their ways in order to meet our consumer demands.

    Sleeping Souls tend to have an every-man-for-himself mindset. The concept of replacing competition with collaboration is foreign for many of them, because they live in their minds, not in their hearts. The separation of races, religions, corporate cultures, political parties, and countries all stem from mind-centered egos and a lack of collaboration. Many Sleeping Souls compete in almost everything they do. Some thrive, while others become disillusioned and exhausted from competing all the time. Some begin to seek.

    Seekers generally become adept at sharing their abilities, resources, and experiences. They choose consciously and carefully to spend their energy in ways that are productive, avoiding relationships that are high in drama and/or energy draining. Many reevaluate those they have chosen as friends, and begin to establish connections with new acquaintances who tend to be fellow Seekers or Awakened because of their collaborative nature, openness, and broadened perspectives on life. They tend to realize quickly that their drama-filled lives are a part of their past. They are stepping into a new life of collaboration, sharing, kindness, compassion, and a host of other positive attributes.

    Awakened collaborate. Most tend to realize that “no man is an island,” as we all depend upon each other, influenced by Nature and the Universe. Because Awakened are open-hearted, they tend to not ignore the needs of the next seven generations. They are inclined to collaborate, developing new ideas and creating new innovations to live in harmony with ourselves, each other, and the Earth. Awakened tend to realize that for systemic change to occur, it must begin with a brilliant idea that morphs into a compelling vision….

    DAILY AFFIRMATION

    I work in collaboration with others
    to help fuel our collective success.

    INSIGHTS

    Is your tendency to work alone, or to work with others?

    Do you enjoy collaborating with others?

    Vision  •  3 min read
    DAY 40 of 55: Aspect #34

    “Nothing is impossible, the word itself says ‘I’m possible’.”

    ~ Audrey Hepburn

    ESSENCE: If we have all the answers, then our vision is too small.

    Vision is the ability to think about or plan the future with creative imagination and wisdom. A vision provides direction and meaning. Visionaries are open to the infinite, having an uncanny ability to see opportunity amid the chaos.

    The successful manifestation of a vision into physical form requires leveraging our heart, body, mind, and Spirit energies. Every thought of every person reflects the collective consciousness of our society. Every thought, Light and dark, is already created as a potential outcome in the higher dimensions. Based on our own personal energetic vibration, we are literally able to choose which potential outcomes we are attracting into our lives.

    To varying degrees, all of us are alchemists, possessing magical powers of transformation and manifestation. However, low Self-awareness keeps these alchemic powers dormant in too many of us. Learning to unleash our power from within begins with increasing our Self-awareness, leveraging the potential alchemical powers that we all possess.

    Sleeping Souls tend to believe that their success is driven by their determination, fueled by their egos in their minds. Their never-quit attitude certainly helps them to achieve. However, what many Sleeping Souls fail to realize is that no matter how successful they become, unless they tap into their inner knowing and leverage their innate alchemic energies, they will NEVER fully maximize their potential. Many Sleeping Souls don’t believe that dreams can come true. Hence, they are incapable of bringing their visions to life. Others have their minds so cluttered with negative thoughts that there’s no room for new visions to even enter. Some only experience visions or dreams when their conscious minds have quieted during sleep. Some Sleeping Souls desire to make their dreams come true. Some begin to seek.

    Seekers generally learn the power of manifesting their dreams into physical form. They tend to learn how to align their energies to vibrationally align with the potential outcomes they are attracting into their lives. Many find life boring unless they are building their dreams. As they envision the future, many are willing to ask for the resources to bring their dreams to life, and they are willing to receive these resources as they appear in Divine timing. They generally learn that if they have all the answers, then their vision is too small, as they always leave room for the higher realms to assist.

    Awakened dream BIG. They tend to always have their eyes open, noticing the world around them—the ocean, the mountains, the life-energy force in every living thing. They see everything and everyone as their teachers. They see the precious gift and beauty of life. They live their dreams through building their visions with creativity and passion. And when building their visions into physical form, they do so with tremendous focus….

    DAILY AFFIRMATION

    With vision, every human challenge
    is possible to overcome.

    INSIGHTS

    Do you have a clear vision for your life?

    Are you living your dream life?

    Are you ready to create a new life, full of love, joy, freedom, prosperity, and peace?

    Focus  •  3 min read
    DAY 41 of 55: Aspect #35

    “Focus on the journey, not the destination.
    Joy is found not in finishing an activity but in doing it.”

    ~ Greg Anderson

    ESSENCE: Focus inspires progress.

    Focus is an act of concentrating interest or activity on something. When manifesting a vision, focus is necessary to create the vision into physical form.

    Focus enables us to continue to take the necessary steps in present time to create what we have in our minds and hearts. Perseverance and patience, most times, accompany focus in our efforts to create something of significance. Remaining focused during challenging and stressful times is an important element for each of us to learn.

    Sleeping Souls tend to have a difficult time focusing, due to the stress, worry, and doubt that plague their lives. Many have pockets of focus, which vary based on their mood. Over the long term, Sleeping Souls tend to have difficulty sustaining focus for a long duration of time, short-circuiting their abilities to achieve their goals. Many get frustrated and quit. Some begin to seek.

    Seekers tend to learn, rather quickly, the importance of focus. Their lives are becoming much more about living in present time, no longer dwelling on past memories or worrying about future illusions. As a result, their focus is in a consistent state of present creation. Many tend to create visions of their future while remaining fully aware of the present-day focus necessary to create these visions into physical form.

    Awakened tend to be 21st-century alchemists. Historically speaking, alchemists could turn iron into gold; a 21st-century alchemist can turn a thought and vision into physical form. Many are familiar with the “Law of Attraction,” which requires one to be energetically vibrating at an extremely high frequency, while maintaining a high sense of focus on creation. Many concentrate all their focus upon the work at hand, refusing to have their focus dissipate when life isn’t going their way. And they tend to be inspired through being intensely focused in present time, successfully manifesting their visions while being in a natural state of profound contemplation…..

    DAILY AFFIRMATION

    My focus inspires me
    to manifest my vision into reality.

    INSIGHTS

    Are you able to fully focus on the task at hand?

    Does your focus heighten or dissipate when a difficult challenge arises?

    Is your energy focused on the present time?

    Contemplation  •  3 min read
    DAY 42 of 55: Aspect #36

    “We are what we think.

    All that we are arises with our thoughts…. Speak or act with an impure mind, and trouble will follow you….

    Speak or act with a pure mind, and happiness will follow you.”

    ~ The Dhammapada

    ESSENCE: Contemplation leads to wise decision-making.

    Contemplation is the action of looking thoughtfully at something for a long time, a deep reflective thought. We are what we think, we are what we eat, and we are who we know we are. Hence, contemplation regarding our heart, mind, body, Spirit, and Soul is crucial for a joyful life.

    Contemplation enables us to attain greater levels of understanding before we take action. Many of our regrets stem from being triggered by our emotions, with contemplation being an afterthought. Oftentimes, we find it difficult to correct our past actions; apologizing for words spoken but not meant; spending time in our own personal prison pondering how we could have conducted ourselves differently; and regretting being irresponsible during challenging times.

    Contemplation is an intangible muscle, like forgiveness and patience, the more we use it, the stronger it becomes. Stoicism represents a beacon of wisdom, serving as a roadmap for a life of purpose and integrity. Contemplation is a key practice in Stoicism.

    Sleeping Souls tend to be out of balance. When they are not centered, they tend to make poor choices that do not serve them well, as contemplation is often a missing component. Many Sleeping Souls know that what they are doing is not serving them well, yet they continue to do it anyway. Perhaps they are faced with the fear of not fitting in. Perhaps they are addicted to suffering, fearing the unknown, clutching to what is familiar. Perhaps they lack the bravery to stand independently on their own two feet. Many Sleeping Souls would benefit by facing their fears, acquiring bravery through experience and contemplating decisions to positively influence their actions. Many Sleeping Souls want to make better choices. Some begin to seek.

    Seekers tend to contemplate through connecting with Nature and their inner knowing. When their minds are cluttered, going for a hike in the woods, going for a swim in a spring, or going for a walk in a city green space tends to clear out the cobwebs. Many begin to learn about the powerful energies that reside in Nature. Many Seekers tend to carry a special stone in their pocket to help continually ground them. Many will hold this stone in their hand when contemplating a decision, quieting any negative monkey chatter, and creating space for new solutions to appear.

    Awakened tend to access their inner knowing through contemplation. They use their wisdom to make choices that serve them well. Awakened tend not to be in a hurry, instead taking the time to contemplate matters. In the contemplation process, many have learned to observe everything through a lens of equality….

    DAILY AFFIRMATION

    I contemplate my thoughts before I act,
    choosing to make decisions that support my life.

    INSIGHTS

    Do you realize the power of contemplation?

    Do you think before you act?

    Would others describe you as impulsive or cautious?

    Equality  •  3 min read
    DAY 43 of 55: Aspect #37

    “The defect of equality is that

    we desire it only with our superiors.”

    ~ Henry Francois Becque

    ESSENCE: We are all equal to one another.

    Equality is the state of being equal, especially in status, rights, and opportunities. In the spiritual sense, equality is the idea that we are all aspects of the Divine, experiencing life at various levels of Self-awareness, and nobody is superior or inferior to another. Equality erases separateness and fosters inclusiveness. And with inclusiveness comes acceptance.

    A false sense of equality has plagued this world since the beginning of humankind. The word humankind refers to human beings considered collectively, but is actually an oxymoron—a contradiction of human and kind, because since inception, humans have NOT been so kind to one another. A more fitting term to collectively describe humans would be human inequality. In civilization after civilization, wars and separateness have destroyed people’s lives. One would think that by the 21st century we would have figured out how to live in peace and harmony with each other, the Earth, and ourselves.

    The reality is that we do know what it takes to live in peace and harmony. The solution is rather simple: Depart from the old paradigm of 20th-century degenerative living, and transcend to the new paradigm of 21st-century regenerative living. For many, this means taking the Divine Detour by crossing over the bridge from the constrictive path to the eXpansive path, creating a new regenerative life (refer to the Y-graphic).

    A foundational aspect of this new paradigm is equality, whereby we view each other as fellow humans, realizing that nearly all of humanity seeks happy and peaceful lives. The exit strategy to remove ourselves from the Earth Matrix–an energetic network of oppression forming the old paradigm– requires a bold vision, lots of bravery, and perseverance.

    Sleeping Souls tend to feed the inequality that exists in the world. Many of them live judgmental lives based on separateness, prejudice, and superiority. Many Sleeping Souls fail to make the connection that we are all made of the same atoms, and therefore, we are equal. Many are tired of living their better-than, less-than lifestyles. Some begin to seek.

    Seekers tend to begin seeing images of themselves in other people through increased levels of awareness. They begin to eliminate the “I” while summoning the “we,” deepening their understanding of equality. They tend to recognize that all things are connected, and through acknowledging this connectedness, a sense of equality emerges.

    Awakened simply view everyone and everything as equals. Their view of the world–their perspective–is so broad that it is from outer space, where there are no divisions, boundaries, or limitations. They hold the vision for One harmonious global community, led by decentralized conscious and regenerative leaders. Awakened know that we are all children of the Divine. They want the best for everybody. And they desire the world to become One peaceful global family, with all of us living with compassion….

    DAILY AFFIRMATION

    I view everyone and everything as equals.

    INSIGHTS

    Do you know that all humans are equal to one another?

    Do you view the world as One global family?

    Do you view everyone and everything as equals?

    Compassion  •  3 min read
    DAY 44 of 55: Aspect #38

    “If you want others to be happy, practice compassion.

    If you want to be happy, practice compassion.”

    ~ Dalai Lama

    ESSENCE: Having compassion for others who are less fortunate than ourselves is a sign of spiritual awakening.

    Compassion is the sympathetic concern for the sufferings or misfortunes of others. If our hearts are closed, compassion cannot eXpand. As we love and care for one another, our compassion eXpands, contributing to the rise of the collective energetic vibration. The more open our hearts become, the more we feel concern and love for others.

    Compassion is not limited to other people, as it includes all of Nature and ourselves. We need to nurture ourselves, negating the limiting belief that self-care is selfish.

    Do we get enough sound sleep?

    Do we eat well?

    Do we exercise?

    Do we meditate?

    Do we listen to our bodies?

    Do we allow ourselves to be authentic?

    Do we allow ourselves to feel the emotions bubbling up inside of us when we get triggered?

    Nurturing ourselves enables us to help nurture others.

    Sleeping Souls tend to have a more self-centered nature than a compassionate one. Many that do nurture themselves tend to focus primarily on the physical aspects of their outer looks, while not spending enough time within, connecting with their hearts. Some Sleeping Souls are philanthropists who own major companies that are decimating the Earth and hurting people. Generally, their compassionate gestures of donating large sums of money are not authentic; many are simply feeding their egos, while positively positioning themselves and their companies in the public eye. On the other side of the scale are those Sleeping Souls who are truly compassionate people who find themselves in desperate situations, living on Earth in survival mode. Some begin to seek.

    Seekers tend to transition from mind-centered to heart-centered lives. As their hearts open, they become more compassionate, feeling the elation of helping and caring for others. They tend to learn that compassion is not so much about giving from the wallet, but about giving from the heart. Volunteering, listening, supporting, encouraging, loving, recognizing, and caring are all nonmonetary gestures of compassion.

    Awakened tend to give from their hearts and their wallets. They’ve learned the importance of giving without expecting anything in return. They give to give, not give to get. Their joy of giving is, to them, receiving. Their humility ensures them freedom from thinking of themselves. Through their wisdom, they have compassion for all those who are suffering. Awakened have come to realize that if we intend to systemically changing our global community to one of peace and love, then each of us must do our inner work to raise our energetic vibrations in order to collectively connect as One powerful force of unity…..

    DAILY AFFIRMATION

    I live my life with compassion for myself and others.
    I give to give, not give to get.

    INSIGHTS

    Do you feel that being compassionate is a strength or a weakness? Why?

    Unity  •  3 min read
    DAY 45 of 55: Aspect #39

    “In union there is strength.”

    ~ Aesop

    ESSENCE: Unity bonds our collective strength.

    Unity is the state of being united or joined as a whole. Our collective power to overcome the oppression in this world will only occur through unity.

    The easiest way to control a crowd is to separate it. The greatest fear of those controlling us is unity. When we unite, our collective strength greatly surpasses the power of those currently in control. When separated, we are weak. When unified, we are STRONG!

    In the United States, we must drop the political narrative that is separating, polarizing, and controlling us. We achieve this by no longer identifying as Republicans or Democrats. We must unite simply as Americans.

    As we unite based on a collective vision of co-creating a New Earth Civilization, we collaborate by changing our behaviors, voting with our dollars, impacting marketplace dynamics. We, simply and collectively, no longer support those companies and people who are oppressing us. Currently, our consumer demand is what’s keeping them in power. Changing our demand is within our control.

    In essence, when we change our behaviors, the economics follow. When we unite, we make collective decisions that literally create a New Earth Civilization that almost all of us desire. This is the power of behavioral economics. All of us consumers are the ones in control, and not the greedy corporatocracy that has emerged!

    Unity represents the turning point. It holds the untapped potential to change our entire existence to one of regenerative living. It’s time we unite, NOW!

    Sleeping Souls tend to look out for themselves, influenced by fear and illusions of separateness. Having thoughts of unity is unlikely for those who are asleep. However, with all the chaos that’s occurring, Sleeping Souls are waking up. Some begin to seek.

    Seekers tend to go on an inner journey of Self-discovery, which is the process of acquiring insight into one’s own character. What many discover is that separateness is an illusion, while unity holds a collective power. And when unity is common, a community forms. Seekers’ individual growth returns them back to their community, making both of them stronger than before.

    Awakened are awakened to the power of unity. Their collaborative nature is one of unity. Many realize that everyone and everything are connected, so let’s unite in harmony, supporting one another’s growth and survival. Many also realize the need to unite to harness our collective power to eXpand beyond the dark oppressive forces, becoming the Light. Awakened know that when we are separated, our Lights are scattered and dim. Though, when we unite as One, our collective Light is bright and powerful. Awakened have reached the point of evolution when enough is enough. It’s time we ignore the oppressors. Turn off their noise. Out with the old. In with the new. We must reclaim our power and freedom….

    DAILY AFFIRMATION

    I am an aspect of the togetherness that bonds our unified community.

    INSIGHTS

    Do you experience the power of unity?

    Within your community, do you unify or separate?

    What is one thing that you can do to create greater unity within your family and community?

    DAY 46 of 55: Aspect #40

    “Between stimulus and response there is a space.
    In that space is our power to choose our response.
    In our response lies our growth and our freedom..”

    ~ Viktor Frankl

    ESSENCE: Freedom is our birthright.

    Freedom is the power or right to speak, act, and change as one wants without hindrance or restraint. Freedom is often associated with liberty and autonomy in the sense of giving oneself one’s own laws. Something is free if it can change and is not constrained in its present state.

    In the United States, freedom is our foundational concept enshrined in various historical documents and upheld through legal and cultural practices. Freedom encompasses multiple dimensions, including political freedom, civil liberties, economic freedom, personal freedom, and legal protections. American culture highly values freedom and independence, viewing them as essential to our personal and national identity. Although, during times of crisis–such as during wars, assassination attempts, or terrorists threats–the balance between maintaining security and protecting individual freedoms becomes a significant debate.

    Freedom is our birth-right. Only the oppressors give themselves the right to constrict our freedom, as we are not granting them the right to do so. This is why civil rights movements have fought to expand the definition of freedom to include marginalized groups, addressing issues such as racial equality, women’s rights, and LGBTQ+ rights. We must protect our freedom. We must remain aware. Otherwise, those who neither study nor care about politics will be governed by those who do.

    Sleeping Souls tend to be trapped in situations, relationship, and challenges that constrict their freedom to live a peaceful and happy life. Many lack the confidence to stand up for themselves and for their birthright of freedom. They tend to allow others to control them, limiting their freedom even more. Many Sleeping Souls are judgmental of how others ought to be and live. Their self-righteousness limits their freedom, constricting their perspective, not seeing life as it actually is. Many are caught up in living a life of illusions. Most simply don’t realize that anything that separates is an illusion. Some Sleeping Souls realize that separation constricts our freedom. Some begin to seek.

    Seekers generally learn to identify reality by determining what is real and what is an illusion. Their personal growth generally eXpands as they clearly determine who they are not, allowing their authentic selves to emerge. They value their freedom to choose the life they desire to live, and have the bravery to live it.

    Awakened are free. They tend to be emotionally free and psychologically free; some are even financially free. Freedom is paramount to the Awakened. Many are willing to stand up during times when freedom gets challenged. Awakened tend to be open-hearted and generous people, fully engaged in giving and receiving….

    Giving & Receiving  •  3 min read
    DAY 47 of 55: Aspect #41

    “Love the giver more than the gift.”

    ~ Brigham Young

    ESSENCE: The best time to give is during the time of our greatest need.

    Giving & Receiving are a part of the universal law that everything naturally moves in balance. In the highest sense, to give is to freely offer something valuable, whether tangible or intangible, to another. To receive is to accept what is being given, whether tangible or intangible, with a sense of gratitude and humility.

    Interestingly, based on the universal law of balance, the best time to give is during the greatest time of need. In our infinite Universe, everything is connected and everything is balanced. If we are in a desperate situation, then giving to others will send pure energetic vibrations into the Universe, and through balance, the Universe will respond with pure energetic vibrations of receiving. Resources—financial and otherwise—will magically start appearing in our lives. This universal law is scientifically proven.

    Sleeping Souls tend to have a take-and-get mentality. Their days tend to be focused on getting what they want. Some are very successful at taking and getting, but fail to realize that their out-of-balance karma will eventually catch up with them. This is why many corporate tycoons lose it all. Some Sleeping Souls become miserly because of their fear of not being able to sustain the cash flow needed to maintain their lives. Since their focus is on themselves, the thought of giving to others is uncommon. Some Sleeping Souls continually struggle with getting, so the thought of giving is rare. Some begin to seek.

    Seekers tend to learn that both giving and receiving have energetic vibrations, so building a healthy and prosperous relationship with these activities is fruitful and wise. Many Seekers discover, through experiencing their own personal struggles, the joy that arises through their generosity of helping others. They tend to learn that the Universe will provide ample prosperity for those with a giving nature.

    Awakened tend to fully understand the universal law of giving and receiving. They realize that the more they give, the more they receive, and they choose to do both in abundance. In other words, they give to give, not give to get, while knowing that despite expecting nothing in return, the Universe will automatically send them offerings in response to balance the exchange—this is what’s known as a give-and-receive mentality. Awakened tend to be open to receiving without resistance while getting true fulfillment by giving to others. And with their eXpansive Self-awareness, along with their infinite perspective, they experience a world of prosperity….
