How Time Travel can Soothe Your Soul

*This post was inspired by my connection with my own Higher Self, as well as by my sci-fi fanatic husband who often ropes me into watching weird and wonderful sci-fi movies.

spirit knows

She is gentle, yet radiant. I don’t have to see her face to know that she is smiling. I can almost feel her touch my shoulder as her calm, nurturing and uplifting energy envelops me.

Her words soothe me.

“Relax dear one, I am here for you now,” she whispers.

Her words are so soft they feel like fluffy clouds caressing my heart.

“There is no need to fret. Nor is there reason to rush. You have already reached your destiny.”

“But how do you know?” I asked

“Darling, I am here and I am all the proof that you need. Trust dear one.”

In my mind’s eye, I have a clear vision of her resting her head on mine. The love of her presence wraps around me.

“For now, all you need to do is trust and breathe through it all. Even when you can’t see how you are going to get through it all, trust that you already have,” she says.

Once again I feel comforted. I am able to be at peace in the moment. She always knows what to say to put things into perspective. She is my Higher Self.

Your Higher Self is your consciousness that is tuned in to the Divine intelligence of the universe. Connected with the Higher Self, infinite wisdom and love flows through you. Your Higher Self is also an expert time traveller who is able to consciously connect to the future. This Divine counterpart of your being has already lived through the experience, reached your ultimate destination of each potential future you can inhabit. While meeting the future self is not necessarily a scene out of Star Trek, he/she can help you get a glimpse of the YOU who is a published author, or who is married to their soul-mate, who is mothering three children, who lives in your dream house in Hawaii, who runs a successful business, or who is living the very dream that you are striving towards.  The future self therefore has an understanding of information that you may not be able to see clearly right now.

Forming a dialogue with your future self is an amazing process that often reveals profound insight. Each time I have connected with my future self, the guidance offered has helped me figure out how to be present with what is. Communicating with your future self is especially handy for anyone who feels stuck and has lost hope of where they are heading. You are bound to find the reassurance and direction that you need. Often the guidance that comes is not exactly a step by step 5 year plan, but it will definitely help you see the best way to move from this moment to the next. As you keep putting one foot in front of the other and flow with the whispers of Spirit, you move that much closer to where you want to be. With the bigger picture in mind, you are better able to accept yourself and where you are on your journey right now. It becomes easy to understand the nature of Divine timing and value the lessons and resources that you are gathering along the way.

Accessing Your inner Time Traveller

♥     Fortunately, this journey does not require a big time machine or the Tardis from Doctor Who. All that you require to travel across time and space is a peaceful meditative space and a little dose of imagination. Here are some suggestions:

♥     Take a few deep breaths, let go of your thoughts and allow yourself to become centred in a meditative state for a few moments.

♥     Invite your Higher Self to be present with you. Feel the energy of their presence. What does it feel like? What do you see in your mind’s eye? It is likely that you will feel a deep sense of love and compassion.

♥     Focus on a situation that you need assistance with, or a question that you would like to ask for guidance. Ask your Higher Self this question.

♥     Allow yourself to be open without any attachment to the outcome. Welcome any guidance or words that they have to share. Listen to what comes.

♥     Pay attention to the guidance that you receive and write it down so that you remember it.

 

You can also keep a journal specifically for communicating with your Higher Self/future self. I have one where I write letters from my future self. I am often amazed at how much of the wisdom I’ve receive through these letters has come to pass when I reflect back on them.

 

Understand Your True Nature

“You are a Divine Immortal Being – a precious child of the Universe. Your primary purpose on Earth is to recognize your true nature as a Spiritual Creative Being.” ~ Sonia Choquette

As Sonia Choquette, Dr. Wayne Dyer and many other spiritual teachers have said – Your essential nature is powerful, infinite and Divine. It is magical and profound. When we arrive on this Earthly plane as a baby, everyone is in awe of our perfection and beauty. We are showered with love, acceptance and there is nothing that we need to do to prove our worth that anyone.

As we grow, this changes. Many of us become conditioned, brainwashed and groomed to forget who and what we are. So we start to identify with the ego. The ego creates stories about who it thinks we are. In the end you believe these lies, learn to hate yourself, belittle yourself and diminish your sense of self worth. You feel that you are imperfect and deeply flawed. Nothing you do is worthy and ending up striving to live up to a false idea of what perfection is, just so that you can justify the space that you take up. You feel that your mere existence is an inconvenience to the world. So to make ourselves feel better, we try even harder, still never feeling good enough. The ego fights to maintain control over your so that you remain fearful, unhappy and disconnected from your Divine nature.

Losing touch with your true nature is a common challenge that light workers face. When this happens, you feel lost, alone and abandoned by the Universe. That feeling of disconnection is a harrowing experience for most of us. Although the ego would have you believe otherwise, the truth is that, although you have grown and changed in many ways, nothing has changed about your true nature. You are still just as perfect, lovable and worthy right now as you were the day that you were born. Your intelligent, unlimited and creative spirit still dwells within you. The only thing that has changed is the way that you have learnt to think about yourself. And all that separates you from embodying the Divine expression of the Universe that you truly are is the belief that you are not Divine.

Sometimes we engage in a battle to tame the ego, which in itself ends up entrapping us in the ego. While some teachers encourage fighting to overcome the ego, others teach a much gentler approach. That is to bless the ego with love, handle it with kindness and to observe its antics with a light heart and humour. I find this gentle approach to be very effective for me personally. Deepening your spiritual practise and spending more time in meditation, in a state of peace, harmony and joy allow you to be better acquainted with your essential nature. As you do so, you are also better able to distinguish between the voice of the ego and the loving wisdom of your soul.

Connecting you a space of love is one of the greatest indicates of being aligned to our true nature. When we feel love, we are experiencing being with our heart and soul, and not with our head. Your Divine nature, your essence, your soul and the Mysteries of the Universe are all here in this moment. They have never left you. You just need to be more aware of it.

A letter from the Heart….

Dear Friends,

I know that things haven’t exactly worked out as you would have liked. I know that you are also struggling to find strength and hope to keep moving forward. What I need you to know is that as difficult as it seems right now, you have the inner strength to pull you through to the other side. And when you are connected to your own inner strength, remember that you can call on your Spirit to help guide and carry you through.

Everything happens for a reason. You have heard it said that life would not have thrown curves your way if you could not handle it. This is true.  Yes, all you want is peace, a place to lie down and rest. You long for a life of gentle experiences, serenity, harmony and bliss. But sometimes we hold too small a vision for ourselves. You see, the Universe has a bigger vision for you and your purpose on this Earth. And so it brings challenging experiences to you to shake your world up a little. This is not to punish you, but to help you grow into a greater version of yourself.

Remember to be kind to yourself. If you need to grieve what is lost, then do so. Allow yourself the time to heal your fragile heart. Forgive yourself for where you feel you have failed both yourself and others. Forgive others for the pain they have caused you. Know that we are all doing the best that we can.

The other day I saw a quote that read ‘Things will get better, even if it isn’t today…it will eventually.’ This rings true to many of our difficult experiences. Even when we think our heart is breaking under the weight of the sorrow we feel in the moment, this too shall pass. For now, just take a deep breath and keep breathing through the moment, as one minute passes for the next to arrive. Take your time and breath, release and then when you are ready, move forward one step at a time on your path to a fresh start. Remember to call on Universe’s help every step of the way.
