5 Tips to feel more energized

When feeling drained, you are taught to seek new sources of energy and new ways of generating energy. It is common to exeriment with food and reduce or eliminate certain items from your diet.  It is also common to focus attention on activities to build physical endurance, stamina and dexterity and to stop doing what makes you feel heavy, tired and unmotivated.  All approaches have their place. Yet, what if you could access more energy instantly?  Consider 5 tips to feel more energized:

 

1. Accept things as they are

When you accept something as it is, your ability to change the situation changes. Whatever you accept in this moment, you are free and your aliveness blossoms. From the moment you see your responsibility is limitless, you accept everything the way it is. Whenever you deny responsibility at any level, you deny the way things really are. Conscious or unconscious denial is a form of resistance and both are draining.

2. Let go of enslavement

When you react to something, you are enslaved to that.  When you get angry, that to which you direct your anger is in control of you. The basis of creation is acceptance otherwise you are a series of reactions. Reactions are draining physically, emotionally and mentally. Being a calm observer balances and stabilizes your energy levels.

3. Be aware of mental creation

Action is about the next moment. Previous moment is about what appears to have passed.  You can only think about past and future. Yet, your whole experience of life is always in this moment. Any other moment is imagination. Thinking about past and future is not a problem. The problem arises when this moment is forgotten.  The next moment is not inevitable. Mind does not know future. Mind takes its understanding of past and reshapes it. Focusing on a future implies you only see it as a repetition of the past. This is draining.

4. Be in this moment

Being in this moment is tapping into the unlimited power house. Living in the moment is not the same as living for the moment. Living for the moment is the pleasure-seeker's life. The feeling of 'not-enough' or dissatisfaction is draining.  This is the reason for constant seeking of new sorts of plaeasure. Living in the moment is not something you have to tell yourself. Simply sense the next moment is full of unlimited possibilities.

 

5.  Be authentic  

Ever notice that when you are not true to yourself, when you do not heed intuition, life feels draining?  Being authentic is like a direct connection with the source power of your core.  It enables you to tap into untapped energy, unlimited source of inspiration, confidence and fearlessness. The more you are true to yourself, the more enthusiasm and energy flow.  When you are in the logic of your head, everything seems to take effort.

10 core job motivations often missed

Everything is synchronicity. You may tell yourself you are searching for something but cannot yet identify what this is. Every relationship and role invites you to grow aware of unique gifts and how you can use them to stretch yourself and enrich others in new ways.  

Notice western society teaches we need to work to survive materially, but motivations for job choices and job changes are not what they appear. To feel discomfort or restlessness invites you to look deeper to make the unseen conscious.  Everything invites you to listen to your feelings.

As it happens, jobs or careers that appeal to you are pointing not so much to your strengths and weaknesses as society has you believe, but to the origin of your misplaced beliefs about love so you heal and let these go. One fundamental life lesson is to love and accept yourself as you are.  You know this is happening as you sense a balanced exchange in time and effort you put in with what you receive in return. 

All your behaviours reveal your relationship to love but you are unaware until you recognize the signs and heal what is revealing itself.  Consider 10 core job motivations often missed that show us how we interpret love.

Listen to yourself. What motivates you to do the job you currently do? 

1. to be helpful and caring 

( this could point to unconscious people- pleasing behavior, confused boundaries, conflict avoidance)

2. to be strong and in control 

(underlying belief that love=being in control, hiding feelings, keeping emotional distance)

3. to be unique and different 

(underlying belief that love/ peer acceptance comes via non-conformism)

4. to be orderly and structured 

(underlying belief that love comes through careful planning)

5. to maintain peace and calm 

(underlying belief that love= keeping peace / mediating conflict)

6. to be impressive and attractive 

(underlying belief that love= achievement, approval seeking)

7. to be knowledgeable 

(underlying belief that love = intellectual/ accumulating information)

8. to be fun and entertaining 

(underlying belief that love=comes when you are only funny/ hide negative feelings)

9. to be secure and safe 

(underlying belief that love=security)

10. to be perfectionistic

(underlying belief that love must be earned through relentless effort)

5 Tips to shift gears

If you hold a vision and it is not entering your life experience fast enough,  then its the perfect moment to shift gears.  Ponder these five tips;

1) Recognize you do not want what you think but the feeling of having it/ being here

The underlying message is to focus on the feelings you imagine are evoked by the envisioned experience.  This is about shifting focus and energy from separation (how to get it or make it happen), to unity (how it feels to be in this place or to experience something right now). 

2) Accept time is an obstacle you create you close the imaginary  gap 

Dreams are realized instantly in the inner realm. You are already 'here'.  You imagine someone and are instantly with them, imagine going to a place and imagine the jouney unfolding. Allowing an experience to enter your awareness involves consistently acting as if no gap or timelag exists. 

3)  Talk as If

Its important talk as if you are already doing something to make it more real. Speak about it in the present tense and often.  This aligns you with the specific dream vibration and allows it to take shape into your experience.

4) See everything as energy first

From the moment you see everything as energy, frequency and vibration, you shift from believing something is possible to knowing its already happening. This shifts your energy from separation to being a living example your vision.As the vibration of acceptance, worthiness and love take over, this is energetic, heartfelt living. When you only see one flow of energy, situations enter your scope faster.  This is an exercise in letting go of separation. 

5) Let the universe determine the details

The universe can deliver your dreams in infinite ways.  It may be easier and quicker for your dream to come in a way you’ve never considered. The what always comes before the how is important to remember. The how is not up to you.  Simply allow yourself to feel the way into the perfect circumstances. The universe does the rest. 

7 Clues you are where you are meant to be

Its common to question why you are where you are and also where you are headed. Finding the right question to ask is more important than the answer. Ponder these clues you are exactly where you are meant to be;

1. Asking ‘what do I’ do & ‘how do I do it’ reflects discomfort with emptiness and flow of inspiration. (This points to living in the head rather than heart)

2. Meditating brings you to inner solitude where you feel enriched and renewed by divine will (contrasts with personal will-often overrides intuition)

3. Discovering what energizes and excites you is as if money is irrelevant

4. Awakening is observing the mind, seeing everything with greater clarity 

5. Being present and listening to what life is calling for from you

6.  Being honest is being what the world is attempting to become

7. Listening to the Soul is recognizing what life inviting from you

View the world is a mirror

Watch what happens as you view the world in your scope as a mirror.  That is, every encounter and experience is reflecting the state of your relationship with yourself.  To encounter conflict, judgement, rejection or anything other than kindness and compassion is revealing you do not yet accept all of you.  Every experience is a sounding board. Notice whether you laugh out of a sense of discomfort or you feel joy and expansion about all that is unfolding.  Notice whether you are ready to see lessons you are creating for yourself. Whatever the setting, the key lesson is the same:  Love unconditionally
