When I started my healing lifestyle four years ago, I had no idea where it would lead. After my first profound epiphany and conversation with God (Believing is Seeing<\/a>), I jumped in with both feet. I had never felt anything as powerful, pure, and true as that love\u2014except after giving birth to my sons! Throughout my blog, I have emphasized that we ALL have access to this unconditional love\u2014it is ALWAYS available to us.<\/p>\n Over the years, I have immersed myself in learning. I’ve read over 60 books, listened to countless podcasts and workshops, and taken multiple classes and certifications. My focus has been on understanding where this love comes from, how to maintain an open connection to it, and how to help others experience it. I believe true healing happens through unconditional love.<\/p>\n Now that I know enough to realize how much I don\u2019t<\/em> know, what did I decide to say yes to? Starting a spiritual community!<\/p>\n If someone had told me years ago that I would one day start a “religious” practice with my two best friends\u2014my soul sisters\u2014I would have laughed in their face (rudely!). Growing up, I had a complicated relationship with organized religion. I often said, “The church does not represent what I feel God truly is.”<\/p>\n I believed in God. I had been baptized and “saved.” But the messages I received in church never aligned with the unconditional love I knew in my heart. Instead, I often felt judged and disconnected. At the same time, I was afraid not<\/em> to believe\u2014because who wants to risk an eternity in hell?! Looking back, I see how fear has been woven into religion to keep people in line.<\/p>\n Even though I stopped attending church after high school, I never stopped talking to my Source\u2014to God. That connection was always there, and meditation deepened it even further. But I never felt like I fit<\/em> into any particular church or religion.<\/p>\n So when the opportunity to start something new arose, after a LOT of deep soul-searching and questioning, I realized there were more reasons to say yes<\/em> than to say no.<\/p>\n I feel deeply passionate and excited about this New Age, mystical, energy, and meditation work. I can’t wait to share it with others and keep learning more!<\/p>\n Who wouldn\u2019t want to start a fun adventure with their two best friends? These women are amazing<\/em>! We can\u2014and often do\u2014talk for hours about these topics.<\/p>\n The Universe answered my call for a group to grow with.<\/p>\n I’ve learned that I feel closest to God when I engage in anything that brings me joy: love, compassion, laughter, friendship, music, family, forgiveness, and yes\u2014orgasms. The idea of creating this spiritual group fills me with that same joy.<\/p>\n Life is too short not to follow my heart.<\/p>\n I am reclaiming the power that I feel organized religion has tried to take from us. When we align with Source, our power is limitless. We are ALL children of one creative force\u2014God, the Universe, Source. I choose to live in love, not fear.<\/p>\n Like I said, I know enough to admit I am only at the tip of the iceberg. I am still Unfolding<\/em> into this work and this life.<\/p>\n So what qualifies me to do this? Honestly, I have no idea. But I know<\/em> it feels right. It feels loving. And I\u2019m giving it to God.<\/p>\n So, with great joy, I introduce my blogging readers to Unfolding<\/em>\u2014our new spiritual community! Join us here<\/a>. We welcome anyone and everyone who wants to explore, question, and grow. No matter where you are in your unfolding process, we will meet you in that space with unconditional love.<\/p>\n “Group work can also be helpful for intensifying the light of your presence. A group of people coming together in a state of presence generates a collective energy field of great intensity… However, unless at least one member of the group is already firmly established in it and thus can hold the energy frequency of that state, the egoic mind can easily reassert itself and sabotage the group’s endeavors.” \u2014 Eckhart Tolle<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n \n The post Unfolding<\/a> first appeared on My Self-healing Journey<\/a>.<\/p>\nA Path I Never Expected<\/h3>\n
