 '...aspects of Mother Nature's energy'


Our Body of Energy 


The pervading energy arises within us
flows through us
for our use in expressing the best of ourselves--
Emotionally through lovingness
Mentally through positive thoughts
Physically through caring actions

Energy is just energy. It is up to us to decide how to make use of it--emotionally, mentally, and physically.

Energy pervades the universe. Every atom is powered on this pervasive energy. Energy originates from a more internal source than modern science has uncovered.

Energy flows through us unbidden, sustaining life in our emotional-mental-physical body.

A positive attitude brings in a more intense stream of energy. Notice that when you want to do an activity, you feel the energy arise in your body, and when you don't want to do something, you feel lethargic. That is the effect of our own attitude on our available energy.

Energy also arises in
and is stored in our body for our present and future use
by the practice of stilling the body--
by the practice of meditation

Interaction with another person stimulates the flow of energy. One interacting with the other builds the energy to a level greater than the two people would each have separately.

Improving and keeping
our emotional, mental and physical aspects
in good health
allows the flow of optimal energy through us




Understanding our Body Signals

Our bodies are designed to focus energy according to our changing needs and desires--instinctively, for our protection, and consciously, by our will power. In a situation where we need to run away quickly, we have that burst of energy available, instantly.

We react to all stimuli. If we pay attention to the area of our body where we are feeling increased energy, we can more easily assess what is happening with us.

We universally feel emotional energy in specific locations in our body. Fear and sexual desire concentrate in our abdomen; though when transformed into lovingness through caring and sharing, we feel the energy in our upper torso and arms--the locations leading to constructive action.

When we are in a situation where we are confused about our feelings, we can get an accurate answer by placing our hand on the area of our body where we are feeling the strongest energy. Generally, feelings of separation are felt below our waist--signaling our desire to have someone or something outside of ourselves make us feel complete and happy. Warm energy above our waist signals feelings of connection--wanting to share that which we are and have as an extension of our own sense of completeness.

Learning to read our body signals
allows us to understand the situation at hand
Full understanding--
conscious choices




Experiencing our Wholeness--Our Natural High

Our natural high--energy brought up in our body by adopting positive attitudes; maintained by acting caringly for the highest good.

Energy flows through us vibrantly as long as we hold loving attitudes and act lovingly.

Our natural balance--
Our state of harmony, peacefulness, and contentment--
The reflection of our intelligent and ever-energized Source--
Our Creator-Sustainer

When we begin manifesting our unique human ability of being able to be aware of truth, we are living in harmony with our natural state; all the energy we need to carry out the highest good floods through us, spontaneously.

The natural high--
Abiding energy brought to the forefront
By harmonizing attitude and action
in living the truth--
The highest good…




Our Whole Body of Energy

Our whole body, intertwined as one unit of emotional-mental-physical is the vehicle for our expression of thoughts, feelings, and actions.

Our physical-mental-emotional body is made up of the composition of flesh and personality into a self-composed symphony. Our notes are all our own choosing--forming harmony or discord--inspiring others or keeping them separate from us.

We are most useful and happy
within our own consciousness
and in our life
when we are ripe in the knowledge
that we are more than flesh and personality

We experience our own depth of perception and expression by seeing and feeling deeply with other people and forms of nature; incorporating our unseen transcendent qualities of care and love.

All the energy for living happily is ever-available to us--energizing every aspect of ourselves and available for our interactions in the world when we hold loving attitudes. That is most important. In our clearest consciousness, in our highest recognition of energy, we feel sustained by love and able to love others most fully.

There is more to see
than we see with our eyes
Our wholeness is deep
our depth complete
when we meet and reflect with clear sight
Physical, emotional, mental--
conditions three
Balanced productively, happily
through positive acts
Bringing our life into harmony…
