Consciously Speaking

This short guided meditation is a simple representation of how easy, yet important, it is to sit and meditate, even if you only have a few minutes, or feel that you are only capable of a few minutes.

Use this short session as a reminder when you are pressed for time, or use it as a daily practice to develop the habit of regular meditation.

Namaste.

Welcome to Consciously Speaking's guided meditation series. Today, Michael Neeley, will be guiding you through an awareness meditation. Some would even call this a consciousness meditation, as it is intended to bring you into a deeper state of connection with reality. Not a perceived reality, but the reality of nature. In the simplest of terms – what IS.

Our existence is like music when we allow it to be such. We are all notes that comprise part of a magnificent symphony. Struggle and anxiety occur for us when we try to separate ourselves from the music; yet when we recognize that we are a part of the song of life, easefulness arrives.

A drop of water does not think of itself as separate from the stream.

We are all part of the stream of a greater consciousness. And while we often look at ourselves as the drop, doing our own thing, feeling our own feelings, and living our own way, we can easily tap back into our grander nature and once again feel our connection to the stream.

Anytime you feel the desire to do so, simply focus your awareness on what IS in the moment. Focus it so intently that there is nothing else but the moment and what it holds in all its richness.

Today's guest is Shereen Thor. Shereen is a life coach and the author of The Coolest Quote Book Eva as well as the Founder of Awaken The Rebel, a movement that helps people who feel disenchanted with their lives to stop settling for less and awaken their inner rebellious spirit so that they can live an extraordinary life by their design.

Born a creative type she learned early on in her traditional Egyptian upbringing that if she wasn't a doctor, lawyer, or engineer than she would inevitably amount to nothing. In order to seem "normal" and keep everyone else happy she decided that she would forsake all her own desires to fulfill other people's expectations. So she got a degree, landed a job, and found herself utterly miserable at the age of twenty-four.

Luckily one of her best friends suggested she go to a seminar where she was able to "Awaken her Inner Rebel," and truly examine this life she had created. She decided to immediately quit her master's degree program and start doing stand-up comedy. This was the official beginning of her writing her own Rebel Rule Book, and living life by her design.

This was the beginning of the Awaken The Rebel movement. Shereen decided to continue to make people laugh while helping them to stop settling for less and awaken their inner rebellious spirit so that they can live an extraordinary life by their design. Shereen is certified in Neuro-Linguistic Programming, and is a Certified Professional Coach by the Institute of Professional Excellence in Coaching.

You can find out more about Shereen at www.AwakenTheRebel.com.

Today's guest is Amy Scott Grant. Amy is a Master Intuitive Healer with an uncanny knack for going straight to the root issue to get you "clear" in a twofold manner: first, her masterful display of intuition sheds light on the areas that have kept you stuck and frustrated, illuminating the answers and the underlying causes. Next, Amy uses her own unique clearing methods to completely dissolve and shift your underlying issues to quickly and permanently resolve your biggest problems.

The experience of working with Amy is not only powerfully effective and fast — it's fun and fascinating, empowering and enlightening, and best of all — hilarious. Unlike other clearing methods where you must re-live the pain and emotional trauma, Amy's unique style brings levity and perspective, making the experience light and spritely.

Always passionate, occasionally brash, but never mainstream, Amy calls it like she sees it in every situation. She has coached and mentored tens of thousands of individuals in more than thirty different countries, helping them to create rapid breakthrough results by permanently clearing millions of blocks, doubts, fears and limiting beliefs, at the deepest core level.

In September 2013, Amy was inducted into the National Academy of Bestselling Authors and received a prestigious Quilly award at the Golden Gala Awards in Hollywood, California. She was also a Thought Leader of the Year Finalist in 2013.
