Love Your Child with All Your Heart

Love yourself with all of your heart. By doing this you set the example for your child so that they can love themselves. In doing so, you show your child that they have the right and the ability to love themselves.

There is no greater act of love!

When your child sees you loving and caring for yourself they will know that they can do this for themselves also. By giving them the space and the living example they will know how much you really love them!
Children learn by example and use what has been modeled for them. If you show them that you do not love yourself with all of your heart they will know, that they do not deserve to be loved. How so, you might ask.

A true loving heart is one that has loved them self first and shares that love with others. Sharing or radiating love is different than giving love.

By showing the child that you do not have love in your heart for yourself and that only others matter, they will then reflect and adopt this behavior as well as this belief system. What you teach them by not loving yourself is that they do not matter only loving others matters.

Teaching a child to love them self first is the sign of a truly loving heart. This truly loving heart is showing them that you love them so much that your personal needs are not involved in the equation, that your love is absolute and pure. The key to teaching this to your child is you learning to love yourself without conditions.

Traditionally people have been taught that the expression and display of love is the most important way to communicate it. But in truth love is a feeling, love is not a display nor a communication. You can feel if someone loves you or not, no matter what their words are. This is especially true for children. They feel your love, no matter what you do or say. As they become older they begin to understand the concept of love as it is explained, but this does not change their feeling experience of what love is.

How is this related to loving myself first you might ask. Well let us tell you, loving yourself first makes you a Hub of Love. They will feel the love that is inside you and no matter what your behaviors are they will know in their hearts that they are loved because they feel the love in your heart.

Love Your Child with All of Your Heart

Three More Steps to Eliminate the Need for Self-Improvement

Three More Steps to Eliminate the Need for
Self-Improvement

1.    Eliminate judgment
Learn to stop seeing things as good or bad. The tendency to make a judgment about an experience is all too common and just a habit. We suggest here that you begin by consciously changing your habit of making judgments. Instead see everything as a learning experience. Whether you have learned that something is not pleasurable or something is pleasurable it is still learning.
2.    Enjoy the experience and Acceptance
Every experience you have creates wisdom that you will have for the rest of your life. Acceptance of these experiences and knowing that they have created this wisdom allows you to expand your awareness. With expanded awareness the ability to change and make conscious choices becomes more prevalent in your life. As this becomes more prevalent in your life you will also discover that you have created these experiences either consciously or unconsciously.
3.    Become a Creator
Once you have discovered that you have created these experiences either consciously or unconsciously you are on the road to become a creator. Now that you know this, the next thing you should be aware of is that you are not only a creator but you have become a conscious creator. Up until now people have used “laws” like the Law of Attraction to explain their creations. When you realize that you are the creator of all of your experiences laws like the Law of Attraction are no longer relevant. What now becomes relevant is your own personal responsibility as the creator of your existence and experience and not some force outside of you.

Positive Thinking

Positive thinking like the Law of Attraction is misunderstood. Many people perceive it to be a way to change your life. We would suggest that it's a step in the right direction but certainly does not change your life. If it did all anyone would have to do is think happy thoughts or good thoughts and their life would be completely different.

One of the main problems with positive thinking is that sometimes it can change the way your life looks in the way you appear to be responding to it. It does not however, change the way you feel inside about life. It can temporarily distract you from your deep inner feelings long enough for you to appear like you have turned your life around. Ultimately the truth within always comes out. Your inner belief systems will eventually reveal themselves.

There is so much to say on the subject in so much detail that we could get into but we are going to limit this to a basic understanding of why positive thinking or positive attitudes to not work.

If you relate this to electricity,  it is understood that in order for something to work electrically there must be a positive and negative (we will leave out the neutral for now). That takes us back to positive thinking. If you have a positive thought that means you must have a negative thought. If you live in the world of duality/polarity there will always be positive and negative. The tendency with positive thinking is that you suppress, control or deny the negative aspect of your life. The word positive is a judgment. It is a perceptual opinion. And with any judgment of good or bad there must be an opposing force. This alone has already put you in a life of struggle and strife even though you're appearing and looking at life positively.

The only way to a full joyful life is to live neutrally. To live neutrally simply means to live without judgment. Nothing is good or bad things just are. Something makes your heart sing or it does not. If it does make your heart sing it doesn't make it good. If it doesn't make your heart sing it isn't bad.

To live a neutral life is to be unconditionally accepting of all life no matter how it appears. To be unconditionally accepting leads to unconditional love and a full joyful life!

Human Fundamentals

Basics for being Human

You need to understand the human form and condition not become it.
If you become it you are trapped in the illusion. If you become it you “are” it. Become is defined as – to enter or assume a certain state or condition.
What you are NOT!
•    You have incarnated on earth in a human form you are not human.
•    You inhabit a human body you are not human.
•    You move around in physical reality, you are not physical.
•    You use the human form to experience the earth plane you are not human nor do you belong to the earth.
•    You experience the physical world as real because you have forgotten who you really are.
•    Being human is an act of consciousness not a truth.

What you ARE!
•    You are spirit.
•    You are eternal and unlimited.
•    You are consciousness.

What you have forgotten!
•    Your true identity.
•    All that you are.
•    How to be all that you are.
•    Home is through the heart center.
•    That you are already home.

Unconditional Acceptance

Many people speak of unconditional love, it is a rare thing that occurs. We think that part of the trouble and difficulty is because of the common definition of the word love. In the human mind love means something that is not what was intended by the ancient ones who spoke of love. Human love is different than Love.

We would suggest that learning and becoming unconditional acceptance will set the stage for a greater understanding of Love.

Unconditional acceptance is what Love is about and is required for you to move forward in your growth and enjoyment of life.

Unconditional Acceptance includes but is not limited to the following.

Becoming Unconditionally Accepting of:

•    yourself
•     others
•    all events
•    the world as it is
•    that anything is possible
•    your choices and behaviors
•    everyone has their own truth
•    other people's choices and behaviors
•    there are many things you are unaware of

You must be mindful of the difference between neutrality and indifference as they appear the same to the limited ego personality. Unconditional acceptance is often experienced as the state of neutrality. Unconditional acceptance is free of judgment. Because of this the state of neutrality or unconditional acceptance is often judged by the mind as being cold, because there are no emotional feelings. This state of no emotions is a reflection of neutrality a step toward Unconditional Love.

Knowledge Is Power

For this writing understand that your head is a metaphor for your ego/ personality or humanness and your heart is a metaphor for your spirit. The metaphor when your head and heart merge is a parallel for your spirit and your ego/ personality merging which allows you to have conscious wisdom in the world of form.

The head seeks knowledge in order to validate itself. In relation to the metaphor above, the heart is your spirit and with your spirit everything is known there is no need for knowledge. The head being a metaphor for your limited ego personality and your ego personality seeks validation that it exists. In order to receive this validation or create its own reality it needs knowledge. With knowledge the ego personality gains and maintains validation. The phrase “knowledge is power” really means that the more knowledge you have the more powerful your ego/ personality structure becomes.

Knowledge is the power of limitation!
Wisdom is the freedom from limitation!

Knowledge is the power through which the ego personality survives. Spirit (the heart) has no need for knowledge. It's awareness comes through experience and beingness. Experience is wisdom and wisdom is the beingness of your spirit.

Aspirations

The single greatest aspiration you can have in life is to have the desire and willingness to find out who you really are. To find out what your own spirit/soul wants to be or experience. That's the only true aspiration and the only aspiration you need. All other aspirations are based upon the world, programs and beliefs systems.These aspirations are all temporal and in essence false.

Until you are tired of keeping yourself numb or living in the patterned behaviors you have accepted as your truth you will never be able to reach the true aspiration of becoming/discovering who you truly are. The causes of your numbness may be eating, working, relationships, drugs, alcohol, feeling important, feeling loved, wanting to be successful, cars, etc. As long as the desire to be or do something other than discovering your true essence your life will never be truly complete or fulfilling.

Often times this is reflected in a seeming emptiness within that is unexplainable. This feeling of emptiness is at times so unbearable people do not know what to do. Quite often to fill this emptiness people continue with the busyness or these forms of numbing to the aspiration of becoming, your true essence. The irony here is that the emptiness is not truly emptiness. The emptiness feels empty because you are numb. Sometimes it feels empty because you are trying to fill the sense of your true essence with all of these busy things. Because at some level you know that these busy things are empty.
 This can lead to life feeling shallow, superficial and meaningless. When all the things that you believe you are supposed to be no longer keep you busy enough to ignore the emptiness there is often a search for inner meaning.

The emptiness is not truly an emptiness. It is perceived of as emptiness because all of the things you believed you were supposed to be do not work in the truth of your essence. The inability to distinguish the difference between who you believe you were supposed to be and who you really are is what creates this perceived sense of emptiness. If you are feeling empty inside or have ever felt this sense of emptiness, we suggest it is then time for you to aspire to be who you really are. Discover your true spiritual essence and the emptiness will disappear and you will see that it was all an illusion. You will discover that it was only there because the real you was not.

Personal Armageddon

Your personal Armageddon is when your old programs and belief systems are confronted by your new consciousness. You must choose are you going to be the new or are you going to try and hold on to the old ways that you have been so comfortable and familiar with. Are you going to live in polarity consciousness or are you going to live in the unity consciousness? To live in unity consciousness simply means the knowing-ness that all is one and that your decisions and behaviors affect the consciousness of everyone on the planet. All of your judgments and opinions of others are opinions that you have of yourself somewhere.

With 2010 being the year of great change and 2012 with all its rumors fast approaching us is time to understand your own personal Armageddon. Yes 2012 is the peak time for great change but it is not the beginning of this change nor is it the end. 2012 is the time in which the new frequencies of change peak on the planet. You have seen some of mother Earth's changes already beginning and they have been ongoing for a decade now. Only with the acknowledgment and conscious awareness of these changes coming are people actually noticing them. Large scale earthquakes continually occur beneath the ocean unbeknownst to most people.

Isn't this the same your own personal experiences? There are constant rumblings beneath your consciousness about the need for change unbeknownst to most people’s conscious awareness. You see, the Earth is a metaphor for your own personal experience. The Earth is processing just like you are. When the earth rumbles and shakes, when hurricanes or tornadoes occur it would be good for you to reflect upon yourself to see where the same things are occurring within yourself. These are all energies of change. When you focus on your own inner changes in rumblings and do what is necessary to make the changes your spirit is asking for you also assist the Earth in lessening the amount of changes she will have to go through.


Things to do to make your personal Armageddon easier:
•    do a life review - take a look at what you are still doing, feeling or thinking that is not conducive to a loving heart

•    spend more quiet time with yourself - meditation, still time, walks in nature

•    change behaviors that are not loving

•    look for the causes of behaviors and feelings that are not loving

•    make a commitment to yourself to become unconditionally accepting of everything that you are

•    become more conscious in all ways - conscious of your behaviors, of your feelings, of your environments and of things nonphysical

Personal Armageddon is merely a way for us to communicate with a common language that is occurring today. Often people hear the word Armageddon and feel some sort of dread or fear that something terrible will happen. We would like to tell you that nothing terrible has to happen. There are times of discomfort because the ego personality and physical body are making changes as new frequencies of consciousness are introduced.

The beauty of all this is that as you go through this it actually becomes easier. Many of your spiritual gifts will begin to come through into your daily life. You will see that many new technologies will begin to emerge in the next few years. These new technologies are reflections of what you can do without gadgets and are only the beginning of what is ahead.

Ascension and Human Skills

There's a lot of talk these days about ascension or ascending. We want to clarify the idea of ascending. Ascension is simply the raising of frequency. There is an old belief system that revolves around an idea that ascension means to leave the body. This was the old way it is not the way it is intended for the Aquarian age. Ascension in the New Age is related to raising frequencies of denseness and limitation to frequencies of freedom and the reuniting of your spirit with your human consciousness.

The frequencies of your current ego/personality are related to belief systems and soul memories. In the ascension process these beliefs systems and soul memories need to be neutralized or changed. By neutralizing or changing your belief systems and soul memories you automatically raise your frequencies. This allows you to become more connected with your own spirit. For the average person that is not on a “spiritual journey” this will be experienced by simply changing the way that they live, think and experience the world.

For people who are into personal growth they will experience it something like trying to change their beliefs systems, doing therapy, becoming more aware of themselves and the idea of patterned behaviors and/or being pulled toward the spiritual direction. For those already on a spiritual journey they will experience everything already mentioned as well as an understanding of energy, intuitive/psychic abilities, expanded consciousness and the sense of the greater picture. For those of you on the spiritual journey a major pitfall is ignoring your humanness in your human skills.

Many people on the spiritual path ignore these things is seeing them as not as important as spiritual stuff. We would tell you that they are not separate that your spiritual stuff and your humanness stuff are equally important. To become a master of your own ascension is to be a master of both spiritual skills and human skills until you have integrated them both into one the whole experience. When you have mastered your human and your spiritual skills you will be a unified being.

This will parallel to the unity consciousness that is coming to this planet and the consciousness of everyone on it. By you living in the unity consciousness yourself you ground this energy for the entire planet. It is not about leaving the planet to understand your spirit it is about your spirit fully and turning your humanness and becoming a spiritual human/spirit human.

The Transition 2010

Well the last couple of months have been great transition for many people. At this time we want to notify you that we will also be transitioning the name of the MMI website and newsletter to Mastering the Art of Being Human.

We feel that this is more appropriate at this time as all of humanity is learning to integrate their spirituality and their humanness whether they are conscious of it or not. This is a time when those of you who are ready will become spiritual humans. This is where your humanness/your ego personality becomes unified with your inner spirit. Mastering the Art of Being Human website will be a place where the average person can learn about their spirit, and their humanity meets their spirituality. It will also be a place where people who are becoming connected with their spirit can integrate and ground their spirit into their humanness.

There's a lot of talk these days about ascension or ascending. We want to clarify the idea of ascending. Ascension is simply the raising of frequency. There is an old belief system that revolves around an idea that ascension means to leave the body. This was the old way it is not the way it is intended for the Aquarian age. Ascension in the New Age is related to raising frequencies of denseness and limitation to frequencies of freedom and the reuniting of your spirit with your human consciousness. This is why we have so aptly chosen the name Mastering the Art of Being Human.


By the way we have a blog that we have recently started for parenting indigo/intuitive/psychic children or children who are “different”. Please post questions or situations and we will comment on them for you.
