At different life stages, its easy to notice changes in conditions, taste preferences, relationships, and inclinations of how and where to spend your time. What may be less obvious is that it all comes down to slowly dissolving filters of the mind and simultaneous heightening of awareness through the lens of the heart. Recognize five ways your own awareness is sharpening:
1) Food awareness- you are increasingly aware of the nature of energy you ingest, digest and eliminate from food and drink. You naturally make healthier choices, eating more fresh food and less processed. You may even develop allergies to eliminate certain foods from your diet or simply notice cravings for things like sugar, caffeine, wheat, dairy, subside with no withdrawl.
2) Sensory awareness- you increasingly recognize you obtain information through channels other than the familliar five senses. That is, you no longer limit a sense of reality to the conditioned filters of your youth, but trust intuition, vibes and what cannot be explained more.
3) Boundary awareness- you increasingly feel connected to your environments and all that is apparently contained within them. In other words, a sense of separation, imaginary boundaries or Self (ego) is shrinking or dissolving. Compassion and kindness are growing stronger and shifting your focus to what is common and shared among all things.
4) Dream awareness- you increasingly see through layers of your own dreaming, the lessons you orchestrate and the teachings you choose to integrate from this life experience into wider consciousness. You see no true experiencer or experience exists except what you imagine.
5) Love awareness- you increasingly shift to knowing that love and acceptance are the key to everything. That is, how deeply you feel unwavering peace determines the harmony you see everywhere. The degree you love self is mirrored in how lovingly you view the external world.
