The Season of Awaken

Awaken is about joyous and grateful acceptance of reality, rather than the CONCEPT of reality.

So if you’ve made it this far…congratulations!!!  You’ve sorted through a lot of “stuff.”  With the last stage, Stage 7, you finally realized that the “crap” you’ve been carrying around until then doesn’t work anymore–and GLADLY released it!!  This marks the transition from Transform into Awaken.

Awaken is about expanding beyond yourself, beyond the things and people who will benefit you.  It involves the experience of the space around you and within you.  Your thinking mind drops away, and you can experience the true nature of reality beyond the form of structures as you know them.  Your focus is on the energy of life and love.  You no longer feel you have to get love but instead give love, live in gratitude, and find the gifts in your situations and relationships.

You truly connect to your gifts and feel your responsibility to share

these gifts within your community.

When in Awaken, you remember your core nature and honor the same in others.  Your relationships, experiences, and awareness of the Energetic deepen, and you feel the field of Oneness.

**DISCLAIMER:  People involved in the spiritual world are quick to jump into Awaken.  Of course!!  It feels wonderful!  It’s lovely!  It’s heavenly!  You’re singing with angels and communing with the world, and, yes, it’s an absolutely beautiful space to be in…when it’s APPROPRIATE!!  If you falsely try to jump to Awaken (more accurately “pseudo-Awaken” before you’ve done all the work up to then, most likely you’ll end up back to Discover–and very quickly!!  The more you have the strategies and refinement in place within your nervous system, the more aware you are of what Season is appropriate…more about this when I discuss the Season of Integrate.
