LET GO / LET IN
In this meditation lesson we will be learning how to separate the lower vibrational emotions and thought patterns (conscious and subconscious). Think of it as moving through the dark spaces or shadows of our relationship with our Self and others.
We will begin with the relationship we have with our Self. The term Self is the personality, the part of you that is connected to the emotional and mental atmospheres closest to the physical you are expressing.
The relationship is the energy created by how you respond emotionally, thoughts and actions. Anyone connected to relationship is also contributing. You are creating the condition of the relationship and therefore responsible for it.
Everything you have an energy exchange with is a relationship, people, careers, finances, health and God.
All relationships are opportunities to learn about your Self. In the physical expression of our relationships we tend to attach. We are here to learn not to do just that.
We become very re-active emotionally when our sense of security is threatened. Often this comes from fearing of loosing what we have become attached to. Fear becomes the foundation and eventually the relationship will crack or break.
In the language of the Soul metaphors and symbols are often used to show the relationship from a higher perception. This will separate you from the details you have already gone over and over in your mind. If there are lower vibrations transmitting to one another then they are transmitting through your body as well. Waiting to create stress, dis-comfort or even dis-ease.
It is in this lesson you will learn how to recognize and release these energies.
The metaphors and symbols will step you out of the details and allow you to separate from the details you have and allow you to see the bigger picture. This frees you to the strength and clarity and truth of the relationship and puts you in a place of power to create the future.
In our relationships we are often emotionally re-active. You will now become active. You will begin letting go of the baggage you have been carrying and travel through your experiences lighter with an open heart, mind and Spirit. This openness will free you to the communication with your Self, Spirit and others.
We will begin with the dark spaces because they are symbolic of the emotional baggage we have stored away connected to the interaction we have in relationships, past and present.
The anger, sadness, pain, the energy of unforgiveness and all lower frequency patterns of thought. A reminder this energy is creating the present condition of your present relationships and the future of them.
Let’s refrain from the labels negative/positive or bad/good because it creates a subconscious foundation that you will create from. It also energizes self judgment and criticism toward the Self which will then be placed on others.
These emotions create repetitive experiences and havoc in the emotional and physical body. Such as low self esteem, depression, anxiety, dis-comfort and dis-ease. It is also connected to the ways in which we have in the past and may in the present be responding to the conditions in our life. (By conditions, what has come to be in our relationships with self, others, finances, health and all physical expression). It is also how we have processed painful events in our life. We will begin with understanding experiences that we have processed negative or bad as lower frequency and positive or good experiences as higher frequency. In this perception you will begin to immediately separate your energy from these experiences which in turn begins or accelerates the higher understanding (perception shift) and the healing will take its course.
Relationship interactions are where we will learn the most about ourselves. As we interact, we must be open to learn about ourselves in the relationship. This is where you begin, the perception! In every relationship, we must be able to communicate and to express who we are emotionally, mentally, physically, and spiritually. We must be able to express our feelings and creative energies. If not we will be in conflict with our truth and not be fulfilled. This will create a weak foundation in the relationship. Which can create insecurity, fear, resentment, anger, or any other lower vibrational frequency. We will then hold these frequencies in our bodies. They will travel through us via the chakras, the nervous system and endocrine system will deliver into our physical systems. Stress, vulnerable immune system, discord or dis-ease is how the body will express this energy.
Keep your relationship priority in order, it is important.
I found it interesting to write which should come first, God or Self, Self or God. One will strongly influence the other or take the other by the hand. So I decided to say it both ways.
First lets take care of Self. When taking care of your Self first your relationship with God or your higher belief, or Spirit will create a magnetic field of Divine energy through and around you. You will then be creating your life from this frequency. Creating a clearer perception of what is for your highest good and not what your desire body is needing or trying to satisfy itself with. To place this pressure upon another person, material things, financial security or any experience will set you up for disappointment. It may take “time” but the consequences will reveal in your emotional and mental peace of mind, joy and perception.
When we take care of our relationship to God first well what it feels like to think is like a shortcut to peace of mind, joy and a beautiful perception of life. It is not easy to explain or put into words. Many of you reading this know what it means, others you are on your way to know.
Every relationship we are in is an opportunity to learn about our Self. The closer we are to someone, the more sensitive to the expression we will be.
In order to do this with another person, we must first understand the relationship with the Self and Spirit — the Self being the personality, qualities, beliefs, and challenges, and the Spirit being communication with God. God represents the belief in a Higher Intelligence — belief in a light shines in all darkness, belief in the fact that there is something to learn from and ascend from in all life’s experiences. This can be expressed in many ways from the traditional to the metaphysical.
In turn, we stop the search from outside ourselves to “make” us happy. You will no longer place pressure on to another person or material things to “make” us happy. True fulfillment comes from within. There is a sense of peace and security within that is felt and no one can take it. Because no “one” gave it to us. We embraced the language of the Soul and communication with God is free to be. It is our Divine Inheritance, we not only deserve, but require. It is what one must discover and utilize to be in the true expression of life.
Tonight we will bring light into the darkness of our relationships when we heighten our awareness about them. We create the conditions; they are not created for us. By living in this truth, you empower your Self and Spirit to work together.
In your “Let Go, Let In” you will reveal your thought patterns and emotions clearly to your Self. In this instance, you are declaring your power to direct and discipline your thoughts and the energy connected to them.
There is often a resistance to going deeper into a relationship, because it gives us the responsibility clean up the “condition” of it. Lets compare it to cleaning one room at a time as opposed to cleaning the whole house!
Healing the relationship with our Self is always a priority, but it is through our energy exchange with others that we will learn the most about our Self. To take the time to know and feel our thoughts and emotions by separating from them, we create the time and place to clear our intuitive channels. The questions Should I be in this relationship?, Will we be together?, or What did I do wrong, will no longer be answered by anyone else than yourself.
Imagine knowing the answers. It is empowering and humbling.
To release the Self from self-judgment, anger, fear, and repetitive thoughts that pull down a relationship frees the experience to be in Divine Truth and Light. Meaning you are able to express your love, creative gifts, create abundance and live the life you deserve. You will also know instinctively when a relationship, job or situation has taken its course. When you have learned all you can from the relationship and respect your (and your partners) desire to move on. To inhibit a relationship from expressing itself in the highest way will limit the individual’s ability to love, heal, and grow within it. This creates, for many, unhappy endings or states of confusion in a relationship. The “title” of the relationship can be in all ways, personal, professional and financial. It can and will influence your happiness and how you perceive life.
Also, remember that the body will take on the lower frequency, which in turn creates stress, weakens the immune system and affect ones health. Other factors on the body’s response are family, environment and Spiritual foundation.
Keep this formula in mind; it is universal law: Thought plus emotional response equals future manifestation. In other words, every thought you have will carry a vibration. Your emotional response to the thought will create the frequency flowing through you via the endocrine and nervous systems, a frequency which then finds its place in the body.
As you do the following exercise you will be separating these energies. It is then the less positive frequency will rise to higher frequency. Becoming active and not reactive, empowered not powerless, disciplining and not out of control.
In the “Let Go, Let In” journaling, you’ll separate positive thought and emotion from less than positive. Then you will be able to set clear intention and recognize what is for the highest good of the relationship. You will also free your Self to accept all truth for relationship.
From there, you’ll create the dynamics of the relationship and allow it to express to its Divine ability. Whether the relationship is meant to be in physical expression forever or an experience you carry in your heart, mind, and soul, you create the future of it and all other relationship from this perception. It will be a strong foundation for you to exist in and create relationships from. You will express your truth, creativity and light. Living in joy, learning and healing with Self and others is a Divine right we all have.
Meditation Assignment
You will want to have two notebooks or journals; write “Let Go” on the cover of one, and “Let In” on the other. Begin with choosing a relationship, past or present that creates lower vibrational emotions when you think about it. We are going to use the Soul language from now on to separate from the details of the relationship. This will be symbolic and in metaphors.
In the “Let Go” journal, you will be releasing energy in this specific relationship that causes you confusion, sadness, fear, anger, anxiety, etc. Or, in other words, you’ll be releasing what you need to let go of in order to be in a place of peace, healing and action!
On the first page of your “Let Go” journal, write: “I release all thought patterns and emotional responses that no longer serve my Divine Truth of my journey”.
The “Let In” journal records anything you are grateful for, have learned, and love about the relationship.
On the first page of your “Let In” journal
write this affirmation: I embrace the Divine Truth and
Divine Direction of my journey today.
Always begin with Let Go first.
Let’s get to work…
- You will now take a few deep breaths and close your eyes.
- Bring to your awareness the relationship you chose, present or past.
- Focus on one in which some negative emotions (anger, fear, sadness, confusion) or uncomfortable memories still exist. This relationship could be with someone you do not understand or even get along with. Past or present.
- Next, make a list of anything that you are grateful for in that relationship. Keep your focus on the relationship, not the person. This can be a challenge, because we tend fixate on what the person does or does not do.
- When done fold your paper and write thank you on both.
- Keep in sacred place for a few days. Acknowledge with a thank you every morning and evening.
We are going to take a look at the “condition” of this relationship with a spouse, significant other, parent, son or daughter, sibling, or friend. Remember: there is no time in energy. (All emotional responses and thought patterns about the relationship have created this energy and the way the relationship plays out.) Therefore, this relationship can be from the past as well as from the present. The power of this is, it will create the future of the relationship and other relationships you are in. Remember, the universal law is always in motion. We will attract like a magnet what we are and we are what we think and feel about ourselves and others.
