[:essence choices:] • Intentional transitions is the name I'm giving to a practice taught in the course • The idea is as follows: in moments of transition (just finished something; what am I doing next?), try to drop into a connection with ourselves and our conscious selves, consider different choices, and go with what aligns most • Sounds to me a lot like executive functioning • To do this is to make choices from within is to wake up and empower yourself • Helpful can be to break the choice down into two parts: (1) the inner choice, which represents what you want to align with internally; and (2) the outer choice, which is how that manifests as a physical action • For instance: internally I am choosing to open myself up to gratitude and to the beauty of food and of eating; externally I am making a meal • Every decision has an internal effect, but often they are not so good; by building this intentionality, we start to make choices better for our inner selves • • Essences choices can be performed with a partner. If so, there is a meditation that goes along with it: •
plain text 1 Let’s take several deep breaths as we open a field of unconditionally loving presence for our whole selves... allowing and embracing all aspects of our experience within the relaxing grace of our loving awareness… 2 Let’s activate our heart suns and take several heart breaths, inhaling unconditional love into our heart suns from the eternal, infinite source field of unconditional love which envelops and pervades existence; and exhale seeing and feeling the warm light of that sun radiating forth, loving our whole selves with each breath… 3 Now let’s take several expanded heart breaths, inhaling unconditional love from the source field into our heart suns; and exhaling, loving each other and the living essence community, and receiving each other’s love and the community’s love… we're opening a magical field of mutual loving empowerment to live our essences together within the larger community vortex. This vortex includes the angelic inner life of the natural world, our higher selves, and all those higher dimensional beings who are seeking to help humanity manifest heaven on earth for all life here… 4 Together let’s expand that field of love further, loving the heart essence of all life and receiving its love. 5 Within this field of love, let’s open to the divine purpose stream of our incarnations -- the reason we each came here. Let’s sense into that stream with wonder and innocence, opening to the electrical flow of whatever that purpose actually is… 6 Within this field of love and purpose let’s feel into our heart essence and synergy sphere to sense our next inner and outer choices in our days for the next 60 minutes (or however long you’ve chosen). 7 Once we both have them, let’s share our essence choices with each other, set a 1 hour timer, and immediately begin to implement them, periodically reconnecting into this field of love and purpose from which they arose. (Share choices) After the hour we’ll text or call each other to appreciate the field we cocreated, and close or do another round.
