OUT OF YOUR MIND


Higher Self


When we are going through an awakening of the spiritual kind- we may feel that we are loosing our mind, and while we may feel that we might be perceived as "crazy" that is exactly what we are meant to experience, we are meant to have our mind be overwritten by the impossible. The feeling of loosing our mind brings us to getting into our heart space and questioning everything that we have been taught and conditioned. We are more than just a body with a personality. Each one of us has a higher aspect, a higher self, or as some have also referred to it as the Oversoul or Overself.


What is the Higher Self? The Higher Self is the intelligence and wisdom aspect of our own self. Ironically, the Higher Self is impersonal and does not have a ‘sense of self’ like the way our personality is. It serves as a guiding aspect our "north star", for the personality or ego.


We can gain a consious connection with our Higher Self through meditation, mindfulness or some other altered states of consciousness practices.









Connecting With Your Higher Self


When you want to listen to a particular radio station, you tune your radio to that station, tuning in to a particular frequency. Same when you want to watch a particular show on TV. It is the frequency you tune into that determines what you hear and what you see.


Our brains operate in very much the same way, except that we have only two stations we can tune into, the Ego Station and the Higher-Self Station.

The Ego Station is the station that originates in the programmed mind, which contains all our limiting beliefs that create our fears. The Ego Station is our wounded self, our false self – the protected self we learned to be as we were growing up and needed to find ways to have control over getting love, avoiding pain, and feeling safe. Our ego wounded self is a closed circuit – it operates on old information that we acquired as we were growing up, information that is no longer relevant or even true. It is not open to new information. It is not open to truth.


The Higher-Self Station is the station that taps into the unlimited information from the universe – information that is beyond the programmed mind. The Higher-Self Station taps into the Source of truth that is always here to guide us in our highest good.


How do you tune your frequency to your higher-self station?

We have all been given a “dial” that either tunes us to the low frequency of our Ego Station, or to the high frequency of our Higher-Self Station. This dial is our INTENT.


We have only two intents to choose from:


  • The intent to get love and avoid pain with some form of controlling behavior.

  • The intent to learn about loving ourselves and others.


The intent to have control over getting love and avoiding pain lowers our frequency and keeps us stuck in our limited mind, our ego mind. When we choose this intent/frequency, we are stuck thinking the thoughts, the lies, and taking the unloving actions that create fear, anxiety, depression, guilt, shame, stress, anger, jealousy, resentment, and so on. The ego frequency is the frequency of being a victim. We choose this frequency when we choose the intent to have control over getting love and avoiding pain.


At any moment, we can change our minds and choose the intent to learn – about what is in our highest good and the highest of all. We can choose to learn about our ego mind rather than stay stuck in it. The moment we choose the intent to learn about love, we raise our frequency and are able to access the higher-self station. This is like moving out of the limitations of our personal computer and into the Internet, only better. While some of the information on the Internet is true and some is not, all of the information we receive from the Higher-Self Station is true, it comes from the Source of Truth.


The only thing that stops us from choosing the Higher-Self Station is our addiction to control. The ego mind wants control over our feelings, over others’ feelings and actions, and over the outcome of things. When your desire for control is greater than your desire to be loving to yourself and others, and greater than your desire to live in truth, you will remain stuck in the Ego Station.


The Ego Station tells us that we can have control over things that we actually have no control over, others and outcomes. While we can have some control over our feelings with various addictions, this only leads to greater unhappiness. Our feelings are an inner guidance system, letting us know when we are on track or off track in our thinking and behavior, so suppressing them with addictions only leads to more pain.


You will discover great joy when you choose the intent to learn about loving yourself and others and access the incredible information that is yours when you are tuned into your Higher-Self Station.



The Higher Self Is The Voice Of The Soul


As we look at the pain in the world around us, we see many things we deeply desire to heal and change. Many of those things seem beyond our ability to influence and change.


There is one thing we can change about ourselves. We can look deep within, moving closer to the truth of who we are. In doing so, we move beyond the limitations of our personality and the world around us begins to transform. Radiant joy and love emerge and are contagious.


Getting to know your Higher Self is a loving and powerful way to move closer toward healing and self-realization. The Higher Self knows everything about us and sees the bigger picture. It knows all of our past lives, our dreams, frustrations, relationships, our different personalities, the lessons we are learning, all possible choices, the past and our potential future. The Higher Self can be a wonderful guide. Just imagine the possibility of seeing everything more clearly, feeling the joy and security of knowing that your choices are taking you toward your highest good!


As we face challenges and move through difficulties, many times we feel lonely, isolated or misunderstood by others. By getting your Higher Self involved in daily life, you will be able to feel loved, nurtured, and deeply understood. Your Higher Self is always there for you, in a way that another human being is not able to be. It is always ready to give you all the attention you need, always loving, has your highest good in mind guiding you ever closer to unlimited source.


As we grow and evolve we sometimes find that our personality is not enough to support our expanded, abundant Self. We sense and know the possibility of true prosperous living, but our old patterns of thinking and doing dont give us the guidance we need to actualize our spiritual ideals and transform our lives. We need a means of finding our way through the day to day reality of living, in a way that supports our Soul’s expansive desires. The Higher Self is the voice of the Soul. Creating a best friend relationship with your Higher Self can provide immediate and insightful help for the challenges of everyday living.


With our Higher Self as navigator we can deepen relationships with others through Soul to Soul communication. Previously unsolvable problems and conflicted relationships can be healed and problems resolved. The love connection between souls transcends all personality differences. The Higher Self also sees all opportunities for growth, allowing you to utilize your experiences in a more loving and joyful way.


This deep, expansive communion with the Self is one of the most powerful and direct ways to access the Souls ability to help you with all of your choices. The experience is also exquisitely beautiful and profoundly intimate. More intimate than any human relationship. Who could possibly know you better and love you more deeply than the being you came through to be on this earth?


This intimacy with the Higher Self is what so many are seeking in a Soul Mate. The innate longing for completion, to be with your other half, the one that was created for you at the beginning of time, the one you were meant to be with forever. That one is your own Soul.


Imagine for a moment that you are now able to feel, taste, touch and know that wondrous union right here, right now. At last, here is the endless love you have been seeking which transcends this human existence. Look deeply into those ancient eyes and see only the truth of love shining back at you and know that this wise one has been with you always. Your heart opens as you feel the trust that comes from true commitment. As your heart opens wider, allow yourself to be embraced by this great being of love and bright light. Feel the strength, beauty, power and love of this ancient one flow through you. Your own heart knows the truth; you know who this is your Soul.


Feel your heart call to this one. Invite it to flow into your heart, embracing it. A deep trust and recognition arises as your Souls energy fills your heart. You know this connection is familiar, from the light, from the source. Secret memories are now remembered. Listen with your heart, your Soul is now speaking. Words of encouragement, hope, love, gentle soothing phrases drawing you closer. See how delighted this wise being is to see you, radiating magnificent colors and bright light. It has been waiting for you, waiting for this union, waiting to merge with you at last.


How long have you been waiting for this moment? How many times have you joined in this completion? The years of separateness drift away as you experience the ecstasy of true love.


To experience your True Self in this way is an amazing gift and a great service to our precious planet. Everyone can learn to turn within and commune with the Self. The rewards can be astonishing. With practice, the heart continues to open, the healing process quickens, life becomes more joyful and the world around us begins to change. Intimacy with the True Self purifies the heart allowing you to experience your own true abundant nature. Discovering pure joy and true happiness need not be difficult. It takes only a willing heart and practice.
