Shift in human consciousness

Timelines are speeding up. Chances are that you since approximately 2012 have been experiencing symptoms of this. Maybe you have been feeling that your life felt apart or that something shifted in your life that caused everything to change. This is the case for many of us. Many people, me included, felt like the floor gave in under us. By this I don't mean that you suddenly woke up one morning and realised that you are a divine being and felt pure bliss, more in the way that many changes happened in a relative short amount of time that left you feeling lost, stranded and even stuck.  It is time to give attention to our hearts. And I know that for many people this sounds like a clichè from a Hollywood movie, but it really is true!

The good thing about the time speeding up is that if you have the desire to heal your heart and mind, this is the time for you! It also makes it so there are incredible how fast you can change your life, more so than ever. I have in many occasions seen how fast people turn their life around in a relative short amount of time. The bad part is, if anything ever can be either good or bad, is that it's harder to live a disconnected life than before. This is the reason why many of us find ourselves in a place where it feels like everything is getting striped from our lifes. In many ways it may feel like the universe is making it so that your only choice is to wake up, by pushing you into a corner! That being said, I can feel that many will read this and feel that the universe is cruel or that the universe is punishing you, but I promise you, that is very far from the case!

I will be the first to say that at times it's very painful when you feel that you are stuck and that healing is impossible from where you stand,  but I also know that it's never impossible! An important spiritual life-hack that I learned along my journey and really feel is true, is that you don't have to learn how to be happy, because that is your natural state. For me this is very important, because for me this means that you don't have to struggle to be happy and positive, the real healing begins when you start to go inward and be the unconditional parent for yourself that you never had!  You need to learn to come back to yourself with love. This is a topic of it's own which I will get more into in another post at a later time.

You have to learn to believe that you are the divine being that you truly are!  

Healthy boundaries

I have always had problems setting boundaries for myself. Which is something most of us struggle with, in my experience, one way or another. I am a highly sensitive person and I have never really had a sense of boundary between my energy and others. Like I was just an extended part of everybody else. I think many people struggle with this, and maybe HSP's (Highly sensitive persons) in particular. So how does one start to sort out where you start and where you finish?

Boundaries in my opinion does not only mean what you allow other people to do towards you. It is just as important to know what you like and what you don't like. What is my likes and dislikes down to the smallest detail, I like this flavour instead of that flavour. I have always had problems with saying, no I would rather have this one, or no I would rather go there. I believe that the journey towards finding yourself really comes down to this issue. What do I like and what do I dislike. For example I like to hike alone. So, I don't like company while hiking.

Specially I think it's important for HSP`s to know because we have a gift of being overly concerned with other people's reaction to us, and we easily observe small details in others reactions that makes the smallest reaction very apparent to us. But that being said, I think this is something everybody struggles with to some extend.

So what can you do today to start this journey? I think the most important thing is to take baby steps and to have patience for yourself. If you have lived your whole life with little or no boundaries, it will take time to get there, and that's ok! Maybe the first step is to ask yourself, do I like tea or coffee the most. If you don't like tea, don't drink tea!  At first you don't have to tell anyone if that's too hard right now, all in it's time. The most important thing is to honor your energy and respect your own decisions! Start small and build your way up when you feel comfortable doing so.

Perspectives

The reality as I see it is connected by different perspectives. Every single individual that live, or have lived, have each their own unique perspective. Though it is true that from a higher perspective we are all one, I want to focus on perspectives from the view of the physical reality we live in.

Topics like religion and politics are hard to talk about. It`s like you can`t form a single opinion without being bombarded from the opponent about what they mean and what an idiot you are for saying otherwise. We are more concerned with being right than to be happy. But what if there is no right or wrong?

So what is a perspective? In my understanding, a perspective is the way you see the world. Everything you ever learned, seen and heard plays in on how you perceive the world around you. It is like we all is equipped with our virtual reality glasses where the reality is shown through a filter that is created of your experience.  If you were raised in a christian environment, your perspective will be different than if you're raised in an atheistic environment. Even within the different communities each person's perspective will differ. And isn't that amazing?

Without being any sort of expert on the area, I would posit that many wars are fought on this ground. How do I get the opponent to mean what I mean, in other words, how can I force you to see the world through my perspective. Why is this so important for some? Why can't we learn from each other instead? Maybe there is something from my perspective that resonate with yours and could enrich your life, and vice versa. And also, how can a perspective be wrong when it's just a direct result of everything you ever learned ? Isn't that just experience, which in most cases is something we highly appreciate?

Everything I'm writing here for instance is from my perspective, maybe is there nothing here that resonate with you, and that's OK!
