The Relationship Journey: The True Nature Of Relationship

As we continue our journey of self-discovery in Love, we realize the need to explore the roots and purpose of our relationships more deeply and why and how we relate to each other. Thus far, we have realized that to understand and experience the true nature of Love, we must first learn to love ourselves.

We now see that our approach must be the same with relationships. To understand the meaning of our connections with others and why we desire and need them in our lives, we must, once again, start with ourselves and embrace the most significant and profound relationship we'll ever have: our relationship with ourselves.

In Walking Love In 5th Dimension, Part 11, we take an in-depth look at why the messaging and focus of our human reality has always been the importance of relationships. And how, in Love, relationships are a different design and experience than we have ever known them to be.

In the first part of What Color Is My Pain?, Chakra teaches us about the roots of the illness that continue to undermine all humankind's health and well-being and informs us, with sincerity and grace, that Love is the only medicine that can heal us.

As a member of 'The Team,' his spirit entity group, Chakra, offers their unique perspective on the human condition. He addresses our need to heal as individuals and as members of our cultural and racial groups.

I used to refer to Chakra as the 'Dr. Spock' of 'The Team' because of his profound understanding of our human reality and his masterful ability to strip a thing 'down to the bone' and transmute something, impossibly complex or controversial, into a simple, clear, and undeniable truth.

When addressing the issue of race, there is a tendency for people to be more reactive than open when faced with any role they may have played in the matter. We usually find ourselves either bowing our heads in shame and denial or rearing up offensively with blame and accusations.

Chakra gratefully offers each of us an opportunity to break through this seemingly eternal misunderstanding and take responsibility for the healing that we, as individuals, must undergo to end our racial disunity.

Chakra's assessment of our human condition is brilliant, compelling, and utterly fascinating.  I would suggest you listen with an open heart and allow yourself to feel his gentle offering of Love, hope, and the possibility for our lives today and for the future of the human race.
 

Creating Our Own Reality And More

In this more extended episode of WL5D, we take a more in-depth look at how we create our reality and the most effective way to do it. We also explore what it means to co-create our experiences and our relationships with other people.

Can we pray to another person's soul when we need to communicate our feelings? Is it possible that it is more efficient to do so than to pray to 'another higher source' about them? Do we communicate our needs to others without speaking to them?

These exciting and thought-provoking questions reveal the greater truth about what we are capable of as human beings and the rich and powerful resources we each have within us.

This inspiring and empowering episode of WL5D speaks to the heart and soul of who we are. It reminds us of the incredible work we have done to create a new place in this world to live and walk in Love.

It is time to set roots down in our new reality. We must embrace the fulfillment that letting go of Fear and accepting ourselves in Love brings to us in every moment.

We are awake now, and it's time to let go of the injury of Fear and become and walk our lives as self-loving beings.

Creating Our Own Reality

The more that we love ourselves, the more there is to love.  Now that we have taken a close look at how to love 'who we are,' we must begin to accept and embrace exactly 'what we are.' One of the most crucial aspects of our nature is our innate ability to create our reality. In truth, we are master creators who define and impact everything we experience.

In Walking Love in the 5th Dimension, Part 9, we explore the truth that we are creators of our reality. We start by looking at how we experience the healing process we must all 'undergo' as we walk the path from Fear to Love.

'Undergoing' is the term used in The Path to describe what we experience when we engage with the emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual impact of our fearful patterns and behaviors.

As we work to uproot and replace them, these patterns and behaviors attempt to reassert themselves. As master creators, we must decide how easy or difficult our healing work will be by how we respond and deal with the process of letting them go and choosing Love.

Again, we are reminded that loving all of who we are is key to our ability to live and fully express our true selves in Love. As creators of our reality, we must apply this awareness to every interaction we engage in, including how we process our injury.

We must expand and deepen to accept our bigness, power, and capability to be 'the best of the best' at being who we are.

The Nitty Gritty Of Loving Yourself

What does it mean to love yourself?

As a spiritual teacher and guide, I am deeply involved in the process and the practice of learning how to walk the truth of loving the self. Over the past two decades, I have discovered that most people have a 'conceptual' idea or understanding about self-love, without the 'experiential' knowing that only comes from walking your life as a self-loving person.

In the walk of my life, it is my' experiential' knowledge that supports and validates the teachings I share in my work with people. It gives them true meaning and depth while providing guidance and direction, with footsteps to follow.

In Walking Love In 5th Dimension, Part 8, we look closer at the connection between what it means to love the self and the act of walking Love in our lives. So often, because of our mind's ability to absorb and express a truth, we believe and can convince others that we know what it feels like to experience it. 

When faced with having to show up with more than just our words, we soon realize that all we know is the idea of the experience—not the walk of it. Loving yourself is a feeling expression with roots that go deep and grow beyond the conceptual, mind-oriented understanding. The mind's role is to spark awareness, laying the groundwork for the experience.

We began our WL5D journey with an overview of Love and loving the self. Next, we learned about the importance of loving all of who we are—body, mind, and spirit.

Now, we must look at how to expand our understanding and deepen our embrace of Love as we learn to walk as self-loving beings.

The Building Blocks Of Love

To heal and change our world, we must begin with ourselves. When creating and building a new reality of Love, we start by taking an up-close and personal look at who we are. Doing this helps us become aware of and acquainted with the different parts of our being.

As we assess our inner territory and establish a relationship with our various aspects—the body, mind, and spirit—we must also learn how to listen and respond to the multiple and ongoing messages, requests, and directions they impart daily.

To stay strong and healthy and maintain a balanced life, we must learn to love, support, nurture, and listen to all of who we are.

As we learn to navigate the territory of self-awareness and begin ‘to do the thing in front of us to do,’ we are asked to embrace the truth that we are the foundation upon which this new reality of Love will be built; we are both the builders and the building blocks.

It is up to us to get clear and heal ourselves so that we can heal the way we love our partners, children, friends, and all other beings living in our world.

In truth, the spotlight is on each one of us. Love and our God-graced spirit are calling us forth, informing us that it is time for us to show up and make a difference in the present and the future of our human existence.

Listen to our Walking Love in 5th Dimension, Part 7 episode, to continue on the journey of discovering how we can each create a whole new reality of Love.

Loving The Mind & Spirit

As we continue to explore the role of self-responsibility in defining our relationship with ourselves, it becomes clear that it is our job to interact with and support the different aspects of our beings.

In WL5D, Part 5, we looked closely at the body and its requirements for optimum health. We must now expand our awareness and understanding to include the remaining two aspects, the mind and the spirit. Both of these significantly influence and impact who we are and the quality of our lives.

It's a decisive step to undertake the care and maintenance of our beings and become intimately involved in their ways and needs. Opening up and establishing lines of communication with the self facilitates an active and ongoing exchange between us and our 'parts and pieces.' To know thyself is to love thyself—literally!

An organic harmony and mutuality exist between our different aspects and their relationship with us. Moving forward on our journey with loving the self, we begin to glimpse our human reality's complex nature and how we must grow and expand our concept of who we are to embrace a more profound truth about ourselves.

In Part 3, the last of this lecture series, I was struck by how familiar my words are to me––these words I speak about Love: this Love, my dearest ally, my medicine, and my daily path.

How can this energy, whose bigness is more extraordinary than we can ever imagine, be so powerful yet tender and accessible to every human being? I don’t know how it is, only that it is so.

My work has been finding familiar words that will touch us and resonate with our souls. The words that will convey the truth of Love’s Love for us and all that we are.

These words express how, in loving yourself, you open the door to your heart, allow Love to heal you, and shift your reality from Fear to Love. How loving yourself empowers you to become solid and self-responsible.

When you love yourself, you find the key to knowing who you are and living the life that you choose to live.

Loving The Body, Ep.2

In this second week of Walking Love in 5th Dimension, our 12-week course exploring a more profound relationship with Love, we take a 'whole' look at the different aspects of the self—the body, mind, and spirit.

Thus far, our WL5D podcasts have focused on our overall relationship with ourselves. We intended to affirm and deepen our self-love.

In Part 5, Episodes 1 & 2, we explore our relationship with our own 'parts and pieces,' starting with the body. We pose the question, "Is it possible that we need to do some reclaiming of our bodies?"

From the 'power over' stance held by the medical profession to our lack of awareness of our body's requirements for health, the need becomes clear for us to establish a new relationship with and take responsibility for this powerful aspect of our being.
