Compassion & Self-Realization - Compassion for Self-Empowerment

🌸 COMPASSION & SELF-REALIZATION 🌸🕊

What does compassion mean to you and how do you relate to this word personally? This quality can play an extremely powerful role in your life, helping you to live a happier, more fulfilling life. 🕊 

Today's Personal Power Life Coaching discusses this relevant topic:

According to Merriam-Webster dictionary: "Compassion = sympathetic consciousness of others' distress together with a desire to alleviate it".

It is a feeling of kindness, active sympathy, benevolence, being kind-hearted, and understanding. In buddhism it is considered one of the 2 qualities (Wisdom + Compassion) that must be developed to realize enlightenment: Compassion - “The ideal of practice is to selflessly act to alleviate suffering wherever it appears” [http://buddhism.about.com/…/basicbuddhistt…/a/compassion.htm].
🕊
Compassion is an important quality for us to embrace not simply because Buddha, Patanjali, the Dalai Lama or another great sage said so. It comes down to the basic quality and feature of living humanely, lovingly and with heart in this world. We can also begin understanding Compassion by knowing its opposite - heartlessness, selfishness, egotism, despotism, cruelty, harshness, hate, intolerance.
💮

One of the effects of compassion is that we adopt a more “unity” and “oneness” consciousness or mindset. That is, when we practice compassion and are mindful of it in our lives we are empathetic to others’ plights and tribulations and appreciate that what can happen to another could very well happen to us. We open our heart, communicate sincerely, with integrity and live with more love, light, joy, ease and wellbeing. We feel deeper gratitude for our life and see many more of our blessings; we realize there are others less fortunate and that we can help in any small way without necessarily needing to take physical action. We can be compassionate when we simply project love and positive energy through thoughts, intentions and wishes towards XYZ.

These realizations ground us (down-to-earth) and bring us closer to the univeral, timeless Truth of being a part of the shared human collective - we are One, instead of one person, nation or group being superior or inferior. We are all human beings and we are going through the human life experience together and individually; no one is better than another person nor beneath anyone else. We are all one people, one race and all experience the same basic human needs to exist and coexist.

🐘 How can you practice more compassion in your daily life? 3 Helpful Tips:

1. 🏳 Be Aware, Open Your Eyes - We can start by awareness of what is compassionate and what it is not. What does it mean to you?🏳Look around you: Your environment, home, workplace, relationships, how others interact and notice where there is an opportunity to be compassionate, kind, caring, helpful or understanding. Often times, people use ‘being nice’, empathetic, sympathetic as synonyms for ‘compassion’.
2. 🏳 Self-Compassion - Be compassionate with/towards yourself, and then towards others. This means not judging yourself or being hard on yourself. Throw perfectionism out the window and celebrate the good work you are doing and the positive steps you are taking. Appreciate how far you’ve come along your own journey and the several ways you have changed for the better, and even if you cannot find too many ways that you’ve improved then acknowledge your willingness to do better and be a better person than you were yesterday. You always have the chance to change and you can do so with your intention and the empowering energy of self-compassion.
3. 🏳 Compassion Towards Others - Consider extending to others the benefit of the doubt rather than jumping to negative conclusions. Avoid criticizing or judging others. Understand that they are going through their own journeys and are doing the best they can. There is one NLP Presupposition summed up as follows: “People make the best choices possible with the information and resources available.” Although we might be inclined or habituated to judging someone else’s behavior, weakness, attitudes, or whatever other aspect you disagree with, we can practice compassion by understanding that they are doing the best they can, perhaps they do not know any better way and this is the utmost they can do at this time.

Practicing Compassion is incredibly important in today’s day and age - both for individual wellbeing and society at large.

Given our global societies evolving and industrializing at faster and faster rates there is more automation, computerization and more sources of immediate gratification and short attention spans. Our amazing technological progress has enhanced convenience in our lives yet it has also generated some degree of being dissociated and numb to real tragedy, violence and suffering around the world and in our local communities. The more we are exposed to “fake suffering” through movies, TV shows, commercials, video games, music and mass media overall the more sensational it is (violence, suffering, etc.) the more it serves as entertainment; as some become desensitized, there is less impact when real calamity occurs and thus people are unable to actually be the compassionate beings we are by nature. As to whether Compassion is inate or not, we need only look to the babies, and we too we once these same beings - kind, gentle, innocent, compassionate beings who can continue evolving as such when given the opportunities to grow up safe, positive, nurturing environments.


By practicing feelings of kindness, love, understanding, patience, and giving others the benefit of the doubt, we cultivate more wellbeing within us and then we can extend it others. Alternatively, if you have a hard time loving yourself and are your own worst critic yet easily feel compassion for others, then nurture the quality you extend to others and direct those loving, positive, warm vibes towards yourself! You deserve your own love. Indeed, this is fundamental to living your greatest, most joyous life possible. It starts with awareness and compassion.

Yoga Philosophy Notes: Negative Energies Want Attention, They Are Not You, They Want to Return to Love & Light

Yoga Philosophy - Notes for Yoga Teachers Training

Sunday, Nov. 13, 2016

Today was an extremely inspiring, enriching and soulful day at Yoga Teachers Training. We had 1 hour of the Sunshine lecture and a whole afternoon, 4 hours-worth, dedicated to yoga anatomy and experiential yoga poses for fine-tuning and improvements.

Today's philosophy lecture was by far one of my favorite to date. Here are some of the main points that caught my/Inner Being's attention :-)  -

• All thoughts, or thought forms, are actually energy and entities. For example, the idea or concept of the mythic, timeless The Devil is an entity and a person can choose identify with it by giving it attention, imbuing it with the power or ability to cause a certain unwanted behavior or weakness. 

When you think about it The Devil itself is but two words, (1) The + (2) Devil, and conveys an idea, quality and entity, yet it is not an actual person. Rather, various traditions, faiths and global society over hundreds of years has kept this entity well and alive as it embodies various aspects the human condition and life experience which is captured very well, concisely and richly by a single word and image.

• We can empower ourselves and must do so, today more than ever as these are pivotal, energetically-charged times, by controlling our relation to the energy, or thought forms, or entities. i.e. Effectively controlling how we relate the various entities we individually experience in our lives.
• Balance is key - It is important to cultivate even more peace in our lives by finding out (discovering) what entities or energy fields we have created in our lives. There are useful, helpful, beneficial energies and then others that do not serve our highest good and thus, the latter energies are the ones that we are inspired to identify and then release.
• Once you study which energies or entities do not serve you it is important to realize those feelings or entities/energies are not you. In other words, do not identify your Self with those attitudes. Rather see them objectively as aspects that are outside of you and which you can scrutinize, manage and control. Look at these as separate from you and this will give you more control.
• For these energies/entities/aspects that you now want to release, ask them to leave you and let go with love and compassion.    
• Examples of entities/energies or fears that one could want to release (once you've identified them as limiting aspects): fear, insecurity, self-doubt, judgment, criticism of self and/or others, anger, depression, indecision, possessiveness, jealousy, over-controlling, addiction of X, etc.
• These entities or energies as simply aspects of the Self and they are Fragments which now need to be re-integrated into the Soul Self. These negative energies need to be transmuted and sent back to the light. In fact, these energies simply want attention. Hence, when they emerge in your life during the day or week or months, or at any given moment, recognize that this is an aspect that is not You however it's an energy that wants acknowledgement. So then acknowledge it and then immediately release this stagnant energy to the Love & Light. 
• Take positive measure with each and every one of them. 
• Any negative feeling you have is asking for attention to go back to The Light. 
• Once you are releasing the undesired energies/entities to the Light and free your energetic space or aura to cultivate the positive/desired, you create a force field around you that repels the darkness and allows/supports/nourishes/invites all that is compatible - i.e. the Love and Light and Joy.
• Say your prayers to release the energies and then let them go; no need to supplicate repeatedly - God hears us the first time :-).
• Self-Empowerment is actively taking control of your life.
• Know that Your/My desire is strong enough to remove what's not in my highest good. Empowerment, self-mastery, enlightenment is gradual, progressive and slow - take it easy and one day at a times. It's all about the journey and the process so enjoy it.
• Joyfully take part in what you want to create in life. You are a co-creator and you can choose integration with Light, Love & Joy.

Positive Empowering Affirmations: 

I choose to be Whole, Integrated and Aligned with my Full Power, my Soul Self and that which is my greatest potential and full power. I invite all good and joyful things into my life here and now!

• The purpose of my life is self-realization and I am taking positive steps every day towards this end and I enjoy the journey.
•  I choose to use my body, mind and energies for the purpose of Self-Realization and unity with my Soul Self - and I appreciate this journey!
• Life is a blessing, I am a miracle, and life keeps getting better and better.

With Love & Gratitude,

Jennifer x 

Namaste dear ones!

Food & Nutrition are Crucial to Lifelong Personal Power, Joy & Health

Food is Vitality and Life Force! 🍒

• How can you eat to get the best results possible from food?
• Is proper, balanced nutrition important to you?

When we eat well we can give our best to life, and life gives us the berry best too :-). 🍓

The latest Personal Power Life Coaching video discusses why nutrition is vitally important so you live at your best for the rest of your life - optimal body, mind and spirit harmonization. When we eat well and holistically we feel great inside and out: strong bones, muscles, mental performance, wellbeing, fantastic energy for all of life's activities, and a more pleasant life experience. 

Why? 

Healthful, conscious and aligned foods have the nutrients and prana, or Life Force, that is essential to harmonious chemical balance within our organism, including the constant neurotransmitter interplays in our brain and stomachs (both regions which control emotions, thoughts, mindset and energetic processes).

🏺 Key Points on Food from the Video:🏺

• - Being mindful, conscious and aware of the type and quality of foods you eat.

• - Look at your current diet - How do you plan your food intake and choices? Is it balanced? Is it chosen intentionally, or haphazardly? Do you eat peacefully sitting down and enjoying each bite, or do you scarff it down in a rush barely remembering what you ate or if you enjoyed it? This aspect matters to the digestion and nutrient absorption. 

• - So many diets and recommendations in mainstream media. What's true? With the overflow of information, often contradictory (!), this means: Get to know your body, tune into your body's needs, appreciate it/yourself and do not compare yourself to others. What works for someone else does not necessarily apply to you. 

• - Do your own Food & Nutrition research, check different sources, read a couple of books, self-experiment and try different methods and approaches until to find something that suits you best. You will know you've struck gold when you feel good in body, mind and spirit - you have physical balance, good energy and are also able to eat in a manner that's sustainable for the rest of your life with relative ease and mindfulness.

• - The key to long-term health is a daily practice of mindful food choices with balance and this doesn't mean always eating "healthy" foods. Balance means being finely attuned to your unique self, needs, lifestyle, health requirement, and goals and then eating in accordance with that which serves you the best, and this can vary each day in slight ways. Thus, do learn to know yourself and trust yourself to make the right choices on those days or moments when they don't fit "the plan". 

• - Finally, set your intention and identify what is most important to you in your long-term health and vitality. What is your main outcome? And what foods and eating style are most compatible with that outcome? 

Wishing you a great day and happy, healthy and wholesome Life! 🍎🍒🍞🍕🍦😉

How God Loves - Poem by Jennifer Arcila (Nov. 2, 2016)

How God Loves

I love you -Yes, I do!

I love you - Yes, it’s true!

Do you know how grand you are?

You are born of Source, You are born of Love

You are born of ecstasy,

My divine and artful inspiration, 

A unique and utterly sublime creation.

The Spirit of God dwells in you, a sacred union to now renew,

Through you and around you. We are One, ever true

Remember this, my dear, albeit no small feat,

In this awareness, in consciousness - we frequently meet.

In everything you do

and all things gone through,

I always have been and always will be with you.

# The End #

"I Think, I Breathe" - Poem by Jennifer Arcila (Oct. 31, 2016)

“I Think, I Breathe”

Poem by Jennifer Arcila, Oct. 31, 2016

A troublesome thought pops into your mind... 

Simply be Aware and close your eyes
Don’t believe everything you think
Some thoughts, my friend, have no heart; they’re easy, lazy lies, 

They flow in streams, link to link, leading many to the brink.

Simply notice; breathe into that thought
bring yourself into your heart center.
The Truth is pure, supreme, and eternal - it cannot be bought.
Let Breath be your loyal, loving mentor.

Let truth float to the surface, for you and all to see,
All in due course, my child; the timing is just right.

Surrender those thoughts to the easy, breezy light.
And so, my child, right now - You simply breathe, simply BE.

* The End - Thank you *

 This quotation is powerful: It is about Consciousness and Awareness of our mind and thoughts. Our Soul and Spirit Self is that energy/voice/inner energy that feels loving, nurturing and balanced; it does not judge or criticise and it's the voice that stays with you throughout your life guiding you to your joyful path through compassion, wisdom and God's grace. You are not your thoughts; thoughts are thoughts and they come and go and change. Anchor yourself, not to your thinking, but rather to that inner presence and energy that feels love, sincerity and connection to a higher power...a creative force that pushes you to be loving, kind, caring, and generous. Trust yourself to discover this Inner Resource and to focus on this particular relationship.  
{Image Source: http://redfairyproject.com/2015/04/5149/ }

Remind yourself daily, moment to moment: How am I breathing? Breathe in through the Nose, deeply into the belly, and exhale through the Nose, releasing whatever does not serve your joy and highest good. Let it go and come back to your Inner Peace.

Overcoming Emotional Lows: Deliberately Choosing My Thoughts

 Emotions & Thoughts - 

The Power of Deliberate Choice

We all have our ups and downs, and today I experienced one of those emotional “lows” while training – thank God it’s an increasingly unusual phenomenon in my reality :-). Somehow I was feeling a rising tide of sad thoughts, loneliness, etc. For some bizarre reason I felt teary, sad, blah and then I thought it must be hormonal. I asked myself, Why??? Where is this coming from???

In fact, there was no basis or foundation for my low emotions – I have every reason in the Universe to be joyful, happy and ecstatic. And I am. Still, today these feelings were just lightly floating onto my reality perhaps seeking to plant themselves. Even if it is hormonal this is NOT how I want to feel. 

With the power of my will and magnificent brain, I stopped and ‘looked” at those thoughts and acknowledged that these unhelpful, unresourceful thoughts are not me – they are simply floating thoughts passing by, and I chose to let them pass away.

*Consciousness*

I took the initiative to give this interplay of thoughts and feelings a physical manifestation by drawing – in a sense taking control of them, rather than letting them amplify and take control of me.

That’s when I held 2 contradictory thoughts – (1) We are what we think about, and (2) You are NOT your thoughts, thoughts are simply thoughts and don’t necessarily define you.

I concluded that I am the thoughts I CHOOSE and the thoughts I consciously SELECT and entertain as my focus; I am not those thoughts that drop in willy-nilly from time to time who knows from where, and which serve no benefit in my overall reality.

Any situation in life is how we *choose* to interpret it and the meaning we assign to it; things, people, places and experiences only have value because we CHOOSE to view them so.

I choose to use my brain, mental faculties, and I choose to want to always feel great, happy and loved.

In life, some things come and stay; and some things come and go forevermore.

Thoughts are exactly the same.

Every day is a journey and there is always, always, always something to be grateful for. Love is all around us, surrounding you and me. Abundance supersedes all things and permeates every facet of our experience if we consciously put on our “Spectacles of Abundance" :-).
