The “Pop Zeitgeist” Secret to Healing and Anti-Aging

As I sit reflect­ing upon this mag­i­cal jour­ney that led me here to now… prac­tic­ing the now, being, and being full of grat­i­tude, I real­ize that my whole life, has been about this prac­tice… the prac­tice I have always called The Way, that coin­ci­den­tally or cos­mi­cally, led right here to The Heal­ers Way.

meditate-jungle

It was actu­ally brought to me organ­i­cally and with­out any pre­con­ceived notions.

It was Vishen’s idea, but now with the help of every­one at Fin­er­Minds, I hope you will enjoy, and help co-create together this work in progress into some­thing won­der­ful for all of us.

The Tip­ping Point

I believe like mor­phic res­o­nance, and metaphor­i­cally like the Hun­dreth Mon­key the­ory, we have reached the tip­ping point. So maybe, it’s not sur­pris­ing that I unex­pect­edly find myself today start­ing this “blo­gol­ogy” about what I think my secret to anti-aging is, since so many peo­ple ask me about it.

It’s one of my great­est anec­dotes about the power of the law of attrac­tion.

You see, while the word God for me, means all, divine, the uni­verse, nature, you, me, we, us… for me, the Law of Attrac­tion, is a pop zeit­geist catch phrase.

And peo­ple like Da Vinci, Ein­stein, Tesla, Yogananda Para­man­hansa and Jesus all were pretty keen on it. For me, if this com­pany of geniuses had a com­mon secret philo­soph­i­cal thread, this was the kind of com­pany I wished to keep.

But, it’s not just about that. It’s not about an aspect detached from all else. It’s about a process, a daily process.

The Daily Process

Each day, I try to med­i­tate at least 20 min­utes a day, if not longer and mostly twice. Once in the morn­ing fac­ing East, and once at sun­set fac­ing West.

Besides bal­anced nutri­tion, exer­cise and yoga, I believe med­i­ta­tion is one of the pri­mary essen­tial keys to well­ness. Hence, a great tool for heal­ing, and good health. It’s been sci­en­tif­i­cally proven to boost your immune sys­tem too.

Truth be told, I just had my sun­set meditation.

sunset-view

The after glow is really strong today. The col­ors of the dark blend shad­ows, leav­ing trails of sil­hou­ettes where the light is gone. The orange inten­sity, the yel­low faded, and a few bright to dark hues of blue, made it so pow­er­ful it seemed all my senses were heightened.

Today was a beau­ti­ful day.

I think a big part of well­ness is your inten­tion. I try to prac­tice pos­i­tiv­ity and grat­i­tude, not only on a daily basis, but from moment to moment as I think of it.

To me shar­ing a sun­set, is bet­ter than most things going on. I believe if we all spent just 20 min­utes a day at sun­set med­i­tat­ing or doing a pos­i­tiv­ity inten­tion prac­tice, like remote view­ing, we would see the most remark­able view.

I think col­lec­tive grat­i­tude, could be the new drug of choice and jour­ney to whole-ness. What do you think though? I’d love to hear your thoughts on that.

For instance, in my car is Lynne McTag­garts amaz­ing audio book Liv­ing The Field. Every­where it seems, I am find­ing more and more like-minded peo­ple join­ing together shar­ing the new con­scious­ness. Lynne is some­one we are going to be speak­ing to here.

I am really look­ing for­ward to intro­duc­ing you to her if you don’t already know her work.

If We Share, We Empower

I have stud­ied many dif­fer­ent ide­olo­gies, read many books and will share what I’ve learned as well as look for­ward to hear­ing from you.

I will hap­pily share my read­ing lists, start a book club here in the near future, very soon bring you inter­views with amaz­ing heal­ers, and look for­ward to hear­ing feed­back and your recommendations.

If you know of any great heal­ers, or ways of well­ness, please tell me about them in the com­ments sec­tion. If we share, we empower.

The point?

To get us to plug in and upgrade to the col­lec­tive point where we are only well. Where we abol­ish the old “ways of thought” and co-create a bal­ance, har­mony and flow, in the pos­i­tive fre­quency. I like to call it the Angel Fre­quency where music, silence, and breath tune us into higher con­scious­ness. Once we raise the con­scious­ness level, there will only be The Way and no more need for The Heal­ers Way.

But, back to the whole aging thing.

How I Slowed Down My Aging

You see, when I was a teen I read Auto­bi­og­ra­phy of a Yogi. I had begun “lying” about my age from a very young age. I was already going to clubs when I was very young and say­ing I was older. And since I hadn’t had any trou­ble going out, it was easy to believe that age was just a number.

Some­where in my early teens I remem­bered Yogananda stat­ing in his book that you shouldn’t tell peo­ple your age. At some point I decided to do that. I decided to stop say­ing my age.

Peo­ple were too curi­ous though, and would always try to guess, or get it out of me. So, I finally chose one age, and stated that for the next 11 years. No one ever doubted me, and my friends all sup­ported me in it. It became an accepted reality.

When I moved to Ibiza the story of my life was becom­ing too dif­fi­cult to recount. Cer­tain facts were becom­ing too ridicu­lous. Like being one of the first female rap­pers in Los Ange­les rap­ping with Ice T and Hollywatts.

What­ever the math was, going to clubs in 1983 was com­pletely not plau­si­ble. I wouldn’t even have been born yet, and highly doubt­ful I would have got­ten into any clubs.

But, it didn’t matter.

It’s as if the uni­verse was my guardian angel, I felt I got all I needed placed before me or chan­neled to me. It wasn’t that I was even wor­ried. I was just let­ting the story unfold, in the same way the amaz­ing story of Susan Boyle unfolded and swept the inter­net, and then the whole world.

I truly love it when I see peo­ple believ­ing and achiev­ing. Her story has moved a lot of people.

Plus, if you are here, you are prob­a­bly famil­iar with Helene Had­sell, The Win­ning Sage. I love Helene’s acronym S.P.E.C —

  • Select it
  • Project it
  • Expect it, and
  • Col­lect it.

Like Helene Hadsell’s tool, more and more are these sto­ries com­ing out to help sup­port the Law of Attrac­tion zeit­geist. So, while I hope to inspire you, to upgrape your mind, body and soul, I look to oth­ers to inspire us here too.

I sup­pose the truth is out there how­ever old I am, but since I had the great priv­iledge to not age, (S.P.E.C!), I think I am just going to con­tinue with the exer­cise. So, please don’t ask me how old I am, just believe with me that I will live for­ever. Just like I believe you will too.

But today, for now, in the midst of this beau­ti­ful moment, I’d love to hear from you about your daily process for being present in the moment.

  • How many times a week or day do you prac­tice meditation?
  • What type of med­i­ta­tion do you practice?
  • Where were you before you began the jour­ney that brought you here to your cur­rent state of bet­ter spir­i­tual well-being?
  • What’s your favorite book on spir­i­tu­al­ity and meditation?
  • Do you use med­i­ta­tion for the pur­pose of heal­ing? If yes, how?

Share with me your ques­tions if you have any.

And of course, don’t for­get to sign up above, at the top right box, to receive noti­fi­ca­tions on the excit­ing inter­views I’ll be con­duct­ing with some really amaz­ing heal­ers very soon.

All Love and Eter­nal Grat­i­tude,
Angelique

    The orig­i­nal pure nature, or the Body of Enlight­ment, is a nat­ural state that we can attain when we med­i­tate. The true hap­pi­ness that we seek is con­cen­trated in the state of pure nature, the inner body that all human­ity pos­sesses. It is the ori­gin of hap­pi­ness, purity and wis­dom. It is the cen­tre of all virtues and the source of pros­per­ity of all that is good.

    To answer your questions :

    I med­i­tate once a day some­times twice– for an hour.

    I prac­tice remove influ­enc­ing by Ger­ald O’Donnell.

    I had to com­pletly “unplug” myself from the busy life, stoped work­ing doe to stress and knew I had to start all over, just didn’t knew how or what that meant.

    I don’t have a favorite book.

    I use med­i­ta­tion for healing-and really hope I’ll get some restults. Have a cronic dis­ease and it’s take­ing over my life.

    This is a great arti­cle — I love the way you just stopped telling peo­ple your age and stayed the same age for some years. I have acci­den­tally added a year or taken one off a few times and I always enjoyed it. I am prac­tis­ing being vague about it to myself and oth­ers at the moment as I am sure the thought of age­ing does more dam­age than any­thing else.

    Thank you for writ­ing this, Angelique. I started med­i­ta­tion when I learnt Theta Heal­ing. It made me realise so many things. It was part of a long jour­ney for me from 21st cen­tury ideas, life and (ill) health to my sim­pler, hap­pier, health­ier and more ‘aware’life now. Many things led to other things, like a ball on a ping pong table. I am also learn­ing remote view­ing and influ­enc­ing and love Ger­ald O’Donnell’s course. Carmela

    I just got back from Bikram Yoga. That is my med­i­ta­tion. My mind feels peace­ful. That is the kind of state I always want for myself and oth­ers. I love Car­olyn Myss’s book Anatomy of the spirit. I am now lis­ten­ing to books on tape: Liv­ing with grace by Car­olyn Myss.

    Angelique, thank you for shar­ing with us. I also feel we’ve reached the tip­ping point.

    I med­i­tate daily, for about 20 min­utes. Some days twice, some days get missed. I see the real ben­e­fit of sit­ting now, in that my days flow bet­ter and I feel con­nected. A day of not med­i­tat­ing feels less than great, so I do what makes me feel good.

    I prac­tice var­i­ous types of med­i­ta­tion. Exper­i­ment­ing, going with the flow.

    What brought me here was a desire to under­stand why seem­ingly rot­ten things hap­pened in my life. I searched until I understood.

    I don’t have one favorite book, I have many! Some authors I enjoy are Car­o­line Myss, Sonia Cho­quette, Stu­art Wilde. But I read what­ever res­onates. I read lots of blogs.

    Look­ing for­ward to hear­ing more from you, con­nect­ing with others.

    How won­der­ful to meet a like-minded woman. I have a book “The Essence of Wom­an­hood — re-awakening the authen­tic fem­i­nine” which is a mine of wis­dom for remov­ing the stresses and mind-habits that cause age­ing and dis-ease. I dance and do relax­ations daily, and am out in nature as much as pos­si­ble.
    Thank you for your beau­ti­ful words.

    Thank you so much for your won­der­ful insights — and yes, age is just a num­ber. I was age-less for some years, then I was in the “life”, which wore me down and put some aging in my skin and body, so now I declared this is the time/year of get­ting back to basics and tak­ing care of “me” — then I can do bet­ter with oth­ers I am in charge of.
    Again, THANK YOU AND BLESS YOU !

    Thanks for shar­ing Angelique.
    I prac­tice Yôga as well and I have pro­gressed lots since I started.
    To answer your ques­tions:
    I prac­tice med­i­ta­tion every day, once or twice a day. Most of times dur­ing Yôga classes.

    Dur­ing the med­i­ta­tion excer­cise we try to stop our thoughts in order to let our intu­ition flow. The most com­mon tech­niques are to con­cen­trate on either a sin­gle image or a sound. You con­cen­trate on only that one thing and ignore all the thoughts that come across your mind. I haven’t stopped my mind com­pletely yet but by using this method I can eas­ily see my con­stant progress. In the beg­gin­ing my mind wouldn’t stop think­ing all kinds of thoughts, des­per­ate to stop the exer­cise. Now it’s been qui­eter, like think­ing a lit­tle lower and less every time, as if it were becom­ing tamed. Our minds behave like spoiled chil­dren, we have to edu­cate them.
    It really works as anti-aging. All the Yôga instruc­tors that I know look so much younger and have the great­est bod­ies. All comes from med­i­ta­tion com­bined with all the other parts of the daily practice.

    Other exer­cise I like very much is to get iso­lated at 20:50 until 21:10 (it’s always this time, doesn’t mat­ter the time zone), for ten min­utes, 20:50 to 21:00 I con­cen­trate on the image of my Yôga Mas­ter (you can also con­cen­trate on the image you have as your guardian angel if you don’t have a Mas­ter) and I send to him green lights all around his body, mean­ing wishes of good health. For the next ten min­utes I see the image of him putting a golden pearl on my hands and I send it to my deep­est desire.

    Before I began this jour­ney I was an afraid per­son, afraid of being alone, always sad for all the things I didn’t have. Now I have bet­ter con­trol of my mind and the power to send all the bad feel­ing away. Every­time I feel bad I instantly think of all the good things I have, how for­tu­nate I am and this great­est felling of grat­i­tude make all bad things vanish.

    My favourite book is Tratado de Yôga by Mestre DeRose. I don’t know the name in eng­lish but you can check that on the web­site http://www.uni-yoga.org. That is the most com­plete book on ancient Yôga and it has a great chap­ter on med­i­ta­tion. This chap­ter can be inte­grally down­loaded from that web­site, free of charge.

    I don’t use med­i­ta­tion for the pur­pose of heal­ing because I’m not sick. I use it in order to develop myself and reach higher states of self-knowledge.

    Best Regards
    Rosália

    Thank-you for your pres­ence. I med­i­tate daily (now with the hol­sync CD’s), or I chant in the morning/evening, and just cre­ate moments of stillness/awareness through­out my day. I do create/project inten­tions (some­times con­sciously) in my med­i­ta­tions. I just reread The eight human tal­ents which is sooo heart­felt fan­tas­tic and yes I also loved Lynes ‘The inten­tion exper­i­ment’. There’s so many… I also read Auto­bi­ograghy of a yogi many yrs ago and loved it so much I took notes. It’s such a long book…I’m really curi­ous where did he say to not men­tion your age? I’ve been doing that also with alot of suc­cess. After uni­ver­sity I lived out of a back pack around the world for 7 years and so have always been on this intense spir­i­tual jour­ney home. Though we know we never had to leave(metaphorically), we enjoy the jour­ney. What a trip!

    Med­i­ta­tion is the key to uni­ver­sal know­ing but we must take care-release all attach­ments. Many med­i­tate to seek enlight­en­ment. This only cre­ates strug­gle and pain. Med­i­tate to calm the mind. It was only when the Bud­dha gave up his quest for enlight­en­ment that he found what he had been seek­ing. Med­i­ta­tion has many won­der­ful effects but it should never be allowed to cre­ate strug­gle or pain.

    Hi Angelique

    My name is Ann Tay­lor and I have an amaz­ing heal­ing prac­tice. God blessed me with truly a remark­able gift. I recently made a med­i­ta­tion record­ing that empow­ers peo­ple to go into the silence.
    It’s puts them in the alpha brain wave state, puts them in the now
    and stop their thoughts both in their con­scious and sub­con­scious
    mind. I did this so that peo­ple can be med­i­tat­ing like some­one who’s been doing it for years.

    Let me know if you’d like a copy of the med­i­ta­tion and I’d be happy to give it to you.

    Thanks you for shar­ing. I too am a fan of Parama­hansa Yogananda.

      Hi Ann,
      Thank you so much for stop­ping by. I would love a copy of your med­i­ta­tion. For those who don’t know a lot about med­i­ta­tion I would like to share this;
      Brain­waves and state of consciousness

      Our brain pulses and vibrates like every­thing in this Uni­verse. The brain pulse is mea­sured like sound in cycles per sec­ond or Hertz. The machine used to make the mea­sure is called an Elec­troEn­cephalo­Graph (EEG). While this machine has its lim­i­ta­tion, we can still use it to cat­e­go­rize brain activ­ity with more or less accu­racy. In the future, sci­en­tist will cer­tainly come up with a more pre­cise technology.

      Brain­waves are cat­e­go­rized in 4 cat­e­gories : Beta, Alpha, Theta and Delta.
      Beta (13– 40 cycles per sec­ond)
      Beta is asso­ci­ated with our wak­ing activ­ity. Dur­ing a day we expe­ri­ence all the brain­wave pat­terns with a pre­dom­i­nance of Beta.
      Alpha (8–13 cycles per sec­ond)
      The first pat­tern dis­cov­ered in 1908 by an Aus­trian Psy­chi­a­trist named Hans Berger. Alpha pat­tern appears when in wake­ful­ness where there is a relaxed and effort­less alert­ness. Light med­i­ta­tion and day dream­ing. It is rec­om­mend to prac­tice your cre­ative visu­al­iza­tion and auto-suggestion tech­nique in alpha state.

      Theta (4–7 cycles per sec­ond)
      Asso­ci­ated with cre­ativ­ity, dreams and Extra-sensory per­cep­tion for the stu­dent the theta state is some­thing to learn to go at will. They are count­less ways to reach theta , so I will not talk about that. Theta is sim­ply the state where your ESP can oper­ates , if you do the proper work you can learn to enter theta at will and per­form most of the psy­chic activ­i­ties. Now, we use the EEG to mea­sure the thing. The EEG has lim­i­ta­tion spe­cially I can tell you for exam­ple to go in theta to per­form con­scious­ness travel in the past cen­turies to meet with the con­scious­ness of a Leonardo DaVinci. The EEG can­not mea­sure this and this feat occur cer­tainly some­where beyond Delta.

      Delta (1/2 — 4 cycles per second)

      Delta is asso­ci­ated with deep sleep, this pat­tern is very slow, how­ever, this brain waves pat­tern is impor­tant for the explorer of con­scious­ness , the EEG is no help to grade, when occur X or Y in the delta range. If you work to merge with the mass con­scious­ness of our planet you need to work in delta, the first step will be to learn to be con­scious in your dreams, you can do that, you can go fur­ther in the explo­ration. Astral pro­jec­tion or Out of Body expe­ri­ence occurs in Delta. The EEG will not be able to really mea­sure in what state you are in, because, it is not a sophis­ti­cated machine.

    I am inter­ested in anti aging and I take Resver­a­trol called Vivix for anti­ag­ing. It really helped my joints heal as I was start­ing to get arthri­tis. I would like to learn more about what you have to say about anti­ag­ing. I’ve never done Yoga, but do Cal­lenet­ics and won­der if it is some­what sim­i­lar. I learned about med­i­ta­tion and am going into the alpha state through the Silva method; it gets rid of my headaches. If you want to check vivex out go to this link: http://www.shaklee.net/roxannhuffman/vivix It really sci­en­tif­i­cally repairs DNA and stops aging pro­tiens from form­ing!

      Nutri­tion is def­i­nitely part of it for me. I have been eat­ing well most of my life. I believe stay­ing away from preser­v­a­tives, processed foods, high fruc­tose corn syrup, hydro­genated oils, fried, white flour, sugar, etc is very impor­tant. I don’t under­stand why they make food avail­able that is bad for us? Why should we have to choose what is good for us to put in our body? Shouldn’t every­thing be made avail­able that only makes us oper­ate to our opti­mum? Peo­ple don’t think of sugar like a drug, but it’s per­haps one of the most addic­tive. Dis­guised as harm­less because unfor­tu­nately, it taste so good. But, did you know? Your taste buds are pro­grams. And if you start to change to bet­ter sweet choices, like agave, or honey, your taste buds accli­mate.
      I absolutely agree that eat­ing healthy is a must for anti­ag­ing!

    I, too; am new to this site. I sense alot of love, growth and nur­tur­ing here, and hope I can be a source of the same to oth­ers. I pray and med­i­tate most morn­ings. I also loved “Auto­bi­og­ra­phy of a Yogi” as a young woman. It might sound silly, but in the last few years I have found peace and inspi­ra­tion in “Look­ing for Mary”; by Bev­erly D’Onofrio, and have read it sev­eral times. I teach nutri­tion and cook­ing for a non-profit agency. I have been com­ing back to life, and Light; after a series of dif­fi­cult chal­lenges. I am say­ing YES! to life again. Ann Tay­lor; I think your record­ing would be a real Bless­ing to me at this time. Please let me know how I can obtain it. I’m grate­ful to have dis­cov­ered this site, and all of you.

      There are many dif­fer­ent types of med­i­ta­tion, I am not an expert in all of them, but I do know what works for me. Fin­er­minds has some great tele­sem­i­nars on some experts, like Holo­sync and Bill Har­ris. And of course, the inter­net has many dif­fer­ent sites you can visit and research till you find some­thing that res­onates with you.
      Are you aware that med­i­ta­tion is sci­en­tif­i­cally proven to be ben­e­fi­cial because of our abil­ity to tap into our dif­fer­ent brain waves? And why it works? Thank you Marisa, I think you have given me an idea for a future blog. I’ll try to put together some­things for you and some oth­ers that had a sim­i­lar ques­tion.
      In the mean­time, I urge you to do some inves­tiga­tive research and let me know what you find. After all, maybe you’ll find some­thing won­der­ful to share with us.

    Thank you Angelique (lovely name) for shar­ing this with us.

    I agree with you — keys to stay­ing young include not mak­ing a fuss about birth­days — You don’t need to count and recount and lis­ten to the unnec­es­sary com­ments from oth­ers; and S.P.E.C as you men­tioned. What I learnt through infor­mally observ­ing the behav­iour of elderly peo­ple is that those who aged faster are the ones who were stuck with some unpleas­ant stuff from their past: regrets, anger… and who failed to enjoy the present. I think this is a very impor­tant fac­tor because it makes it hard to prac­tice grat­i­tude or to focus on what is good in life… the Law of attrac­tion bring more pain, stress… and aging!
    Just a thought.

    I use to be a leisure time scuba diver which included night div­ing. With wet suite on and a light in one hand and tank on my back I jumped in only to real­ize my sep­a­ra­tion, alone­ness and the fear of the dark unknown which lied ahead. Since I couldn’t see any­thing and, try­ing not to panic I started lis­ton­ing; first, the still­ness and then the sound of my breathe and I felt the flow of the water. I began to felt like a baby reborn; held in the ocean arms; being nour­ish by the breathe. This Still­nesss and the Breathe gave me the com­fort and courage to move ahead and fol­low the Light.
    I am grat­i­ful for know­ing that The Breathe is always there which subtains,loves,guides and con­nects me with All That Is.
    I now become Still and lis­ten to the Breathe.

    Hi Angelique and every­one too.…..
    A cou­ple of years ago I began work­ing with women who have been traf­ficked for Com­mer­cial Sex­ual Exploita­tion (Slave Pros­ti­tutes). The apt way to describe those women was that they were dieing before my eyes. It has been one of the most fright­en­ing and shock­ing expe­ri­ences of my life. I was watch­ing women who had given up on life and I can only describe it by say­ing that I watched as the life force was depart­ing from them.
    Though I am not a reli­gious per­son I found a kin­dred spirit in very reli­gious nun and, through just fol­low­ing the pre­scribed steps of recov­ery and voic­ing the seem­ingly use­less words of encour­age­ment and hope the life force returned and the women thrived.
    I think, because I don’t know for sure , that what hap­pened was that the reli­gious sister(catholic she is though I am not)and I had a com­mon benev­o­lent pur­pose that found res­o­nance in the Uni­verse and that the energy was chan­neled through us to the women thus restor­ing the life energy and life force that had been ebbing from them. It had lit­er­ally been sim­i­lar to watch­ing smoke escape beneath a closed door.they were dieing.
    Whether that is God, Life Force, Spir­its , Angel’s etc– I do not know. Nor do I claim that we are able to work mir­a­cles or cure any­one. I can­not explain it and I don’t know if it will keep hap­pen­ing. I do know that some­thing inex­plic­a­ble occurred and it was more than the sis­ter and I could indi­vid­u­ally do. We were merely con­duits for a greater pur­pose and it was the most awe­some expe­ri­ence. If I hadn’t seen it and been part of it I wouldn’t have believed it.
    I think that any­one who is read­ing here is on the right track for life. If your pur­pose and intent is pos­i­tive then, as Helene’s acronym says SPEC it. Trust and believe, believe and Trust.….….….….…..!

    Hello Angelique,
    Every­thing here, res­onates with my soul. I too am eter­nally young.
    I try to prac­tice satori med­i­ta­tion. The art of med­i­tatat­ing every sin­gle action of the day.
    My favourite book is “Fam­ily of light” by Bar­bara Marciniak.
    Before my jour­ney began 18 years ago I was lost some­where in ego. My intu­itive self took me to a lit­tle moble home in the coun­try­side just out­side of Bristol(England)to a weekly spir­i­tual group run by a lovely man called Ron Hutchin­son. He was way ahead of time and taught me the info that is being widely cir­cu­lated on the net at present. He now resides in the Angelic realms, God bless him.
    I am a healer through my con­nec­tion with the God­force, I work with remov­ing blocks in the per­sons energy sys­tem to restore bal­ance and well being. Then I show them how to be in con­trol of their lives, empow­er­ing them once more. We are all con­nected to cre­ator, we can all heal, it´s sim­ply a choice we make in every moment, to con­nect to source or deny the con­nec­tion. Yes, it really is that sim­ple, the prob­lem is our minds like to make things com­pli­cated. Con­nec­tion to source brings bliss and love. life unfolds beau­ti­fully from then on.
    Send­ing every­one read­ing this love and light. Steph x

I am for­tu­nate to have a spir­i­tual mas­ter who sim­pli­fies the eter­nal truths in guide­lines for prac­tic­ing in our daily activities.

    I have been taught breath­ing processes like pranayam,as also yoga & med­i­ta­tion. Do it fairly reg­u­larly. I have read a few books on spir­i­tu­al­ity includ­ing The Auto­bi­og­ra­phy of a Yogi it inspired me tremendously.

    Kia Ora(Hello)Angelique,
    Thank you for your won­der­ful story of enlight­en­ment.
    I am an indige­nous woman from New Zealand who walked a spir­i­tual jour­ney for 35 years with my late hus­band, who left his imprint on earth of May 2008. My prac­tice has been karakia (prayer) each morn­ing and night and to nour­ish my mind, body and soul, I would be close to nature, to lis­ten and seek the cre­ativ­ity bore from the sun, the sea and the moon.
    The chal­lenges dur­ing these years were phe­nom­i­nal but my daily prac­tice re-vitalised my spirit each day where deep spir­i­tual LOVE con­quered all bar­ri­ers, which encom­passed unity, com­pas­sion, love and a beau­ti­ful aura. My chil­dren have learned this prac­tice and are now receiv­ing that same divine spir­i­tual love to pass on to their chil­dren.
    “I believe: it was my des­tiny to bring my hus­band from the dark to the light and once that was achieved he was taken sud­denly to become my family’s spir­i­tual guardian angel from above”. To my mokop­una (grand­chil­dren) my late hus­band whom they knew as “PAPA”, is now known as:
    …Papa Sun; Papa Star and Papa Moon…
    I have not shared this story out­side my fam­ily Angelique, so I thank you for giv­ing me this oppor­tu­nity to share with you.
    May the Lord (IO) bless you

    Thank you for writ­ing this good arti­cle!
    Per­son­aly! I do believe that it does not really mat­ter
    how old one is, because to me evry soul and the expres­sion
    of that soul through their body is a gift on its own!
    I often say to peo­ple when they ask my age; I have been res­i­dent
    on this planet for this and this amount of years! That
    kind of makes peo­ple THINK! that it is not about how old your
    birth cer­ti­ficte says you are! It is about being a soul on a jour­ney in the cos­mos! and of course we all like to look
    nice and young, but I meet a lot of youngish look­ing peo­ple
    who really was not very human and lov­ing, on the other hand I have seen the devine light shine through young and old because of the beauty of their Hearts and then age stops!
    It is all LIFE! In my day­ily liv­ing I find great thank­full­ness in focus­ing on the threes in the streets( insted of the pass­ing cars and trafic) I lis­ten to the birds
    singing above the traf­fic noise, I wis­tle to them and they wis­tle back! It is very very sim­ple Gra­tu­ide and open hearts
    towards nature makes you stay alive and you become what you
    focus on! What is more healthy; focus on pride of outer looks
    or focus on the supream of all beauty; GOD‘S Cre­ation and be one with this! then it will reflect in your whole being!

    Thank you, Angelique. I like the idea of hid­ing your age too. The way to look and feel younger through my own expe­ri­ence is through music and dance. I noticed that musi­cians aged slower, I believe the vibra­tions of singing are like med­i­ta­tion.
    Also, I did fast­ing a long time ago, but still expe­ri­ence the ben­e­fits of it. I believe fast­ing is prob­a­bly the best anti-aging thing out there.
    How­ever, it has to be done by the book, oth­er­wise can be dangerous.

    Angelique, I rec­og­nize you as a fel­low light­worker. What you write is what I have also been liv­ing all my life, and it’s good to meet you through the ‘net, so that we may share infor­ma­tion and enhance each other’s knowl­edge and progress in our mutual work toward bring­ing about the dawn of a civ­i­liza­tion based on love and truth. I don’t speak of age, I don’t believe in aging, or in dying, and I don’t expect to do either. I always seek to con­nect with per­sons, books, infor­ma­tion from any source that brings more light into the dark­ness. For me, yoga is nir­vana, both phys­i­cal and spir­i­tual and, together with walk­ing out­doors, I find it an ideal prac­tice to bring about the ideal body. I believe it is vital to address the body, as it is our sacred tem­ple whose pos­si­bil­i­ties we can only learn when we truly honor it. As the wise apho­rism says, we are spir­i­tual beings hav­ing a phys­i­cal expe­ri­ence. Our bod­ies are the medium through which we have our phys­i­cal expe­ri­ence, and if we truly honor our bod­ies, our phys­i­cal expe­ri­ence can be ecstasy, bliss, joy. And by being fully aware and hon­or­ing of our bod­ies, as the per­fec­tion of our phys­i­cal expe­ri­ence, we are thus open­ing the por­tal to hav­ing the most tran­scen­dent spir­i­tual expe­ri­ence as well. One of the most vital fac­tors of per­fec­tion of our phys­i­cal expe­ri­ence is to under­stand and fol­low the immor­tal prin­ci­ples of health, of nature: plenty of sleep, fresh air, sun­shine, exer­cise, men­tal and emo­tional poise. And the fac­tor of nutri­tion is per­haps the most neglected and mis­un­der­stood. I have found, through the teach­ings of great mas­ters that, in com­bi­na­tion with observ­ing all the other laws of life, the diet which is nat­ural to our species bestows on us radi­ant health, lumi­nes­cent beauty, indef­i­nite longevity. It is the diet of Gen­e­sis, of the Essenes, of Pythago­ras, of Hip­pocrates, redis­cov­ered by the neo-classicist physi­cians who founded Nat­ural Hygiene nearly two cen­turies ago—a diet of noth­ing but raw fruits, veg­eta­bles, nuts, and seeds, and of eat­ing them in a man­ner which our bod­ies will tell us is ideal for each of us. And another most impor­tant fac­tor is to resist our cul­tural man­date to pal­li­ate symp­toms, and instead fast and rest until health is restored. I do feel it is impor­tant to learn all that one can about fast­ing the way nature intended us to do—again, it’s very sim­ple, all ani­mals do it eas­ily and with no prob­lem, demon­strat­ing that the most impor­tant thing our species needs to do is to strip away all the untruths we’ve been taught and uncover the truth thereby. I have found that fol­low­ing these prin­ci­ples stops the aging process, and in fact reverses it. I don’t by any means claim to have all the answers, we never stop learn­ing, but this much I have learned, and it has served me well, and con­tin­ues to do so. The great­est liv­ing mas­ter from whom I have learned the most about health is Dr. Bernarr, whose web­site is http://healself.org. This site is ascetic, no frills, no gim­micks, which is con­sis­tent with the lifestyle that I find the most nourishing—although I’ve learned that the site will be enhanced some­what, and of course more aes­theti­cism is always wel­come. I found that the books by the great Dr. Her­bert Shel­ton on fasting—“Fasting Can Save Your Life”, and “The Sci­ence and Fine Art of Fasting”—and Dr. Shelton’s many books on nutri­tion, along with the refine­ments by Dr. Bernarr which can be accessed on his site, along with other arti­cles which one can request on any topic by writ­ing to him, have allowed me to attain the best health pos­si­ble. Health is never finished—it is para­dox­i­cal: health is whole­ness, yet whole­ness is not absolute, but can be made more whole all the time. I read once long ago that all great truths are sim­ple, and I whole­heart­edly agree and embrace that truth. But I find that although truth is sim­ple, its appli­ca­tion in our lives is not nec­es­sar­ily easy at first, though if it is really truth, its con­sis­tent appli­ca­tion will ulti­mately result in great bliss. My expe­ri­ence is con­sis­tent with the appli­ca­tion of the prin­ci­ple that truth is sim­ple, to med­i­ta­tion, many years ago has made it the most joy­ous, nour­ish­ing expe­ri­ence for me. The great psy­chol­o­gist and author Erich Fromm wrote a book called “The Art of Lov­ing”, and in it he described med­i­ta­tion as not some­thing you do, but as a state in which you find your­self, some­thing you are. Accord­ingly, I have always med­i­tated by com­fort­ably lying down, clos­ing my eyes, and sim­ply melt­ing into my bliss. For me it would not be med­i­tat­ing to sit cross-legged for hours, though I’m sure that works for many peo­ple. Even in yoga classes, our med­i­ta­tion at the end is always lying on our backs on our mats with our eyes closed, and for me it vir­tu­ally always takes me to satchi­tananda. It does require prac­tice, in the sense that just doing it over and over again leads me to nir­vana surer and more imme­di­ately all the time. As for spir­i­tual mas­ters, there are so many great ones, and I am in awe of the invalu­able mes­sages that are avail­able to us in our time. I can’t sin­gle out any one, but I do find the chan­neled mes­sages per­haps the sim­plest, most inspir­ing and life chang­ing, those brought to us by Bar­bara Marciniak, Jerry and Esther Hicks, and the works of Eck­hart Tolle, Stu­art Wilde, David Icke, Vaishali at http://purplev.com/, L. Ron Hub­bard, recent Wayne Dyer, and so many oth­ers. We are liv­ing in a time when we have a chance to lift all the lim­i­ta­tion that has enslaved our species and thus our beau­ti­ful planet, and I find that truth is avail­able, more and more increas­ingly and read­ily. Though there is so much work to be done, we are truly blessed! Namaste to all.
