Mastering Divine Discernment: Living Behind the Prison of the Mind

Leave a reply

To master Divine Discernment, you must let go of all “you think” you know...

Once you have made up your mind you have narrowed your mind.  You can’t see the forest for the trees.  You have blocked your peripheral vision.  Much like a horse with blinders, you cannot see the “Big Picture”.  The mind will not allow it.

I’m reminded of the time not so long ago when I locked my keys in my car, or so I thought.   I called AAA and a super nice guy showed up to unlock my car.  Low and behold, my keys were not there.   I dumped the entire contents of my purse out on the pavement, and guess what?  They were in my purse all along!  Even though I had searched through my purse several times, I could not see them.  Why?  I had already made up my mind they were in the car.  I narrowed my field of vision.

When working with clients and asking questions of Spirit, I may expect a certain answer based on experience, but I don’t let “what I think” get in the way.   I stay curious and open to receiving whatever Spirit wants me to know.   Often, I’m completely surprised by the answers I receive.  This is the key to Divine Discernment.   It’s easy for me to stay curious and open.  I’ve had years of experience working “blindly” with people remotely.  If I don’t know anything, there is nothing in my head to get in the way.  Anyone can hone this skill by practicing the repetitive exercises I share in “A Course in Discernment” workshop. 

Sometimes it is hard to be completely open and neutral, especially when you are emotionally charged or attached; for instance, when it comes to your health and well-being or the health and well-being of a loved one.  You have “skin in the game”.   It is still possible, however.  You may say before you ask Spirit for guidance in this situation, “I don’t care what the answer is, I just want to know the Truth or what is for Highest Best”. 

You have the capacity to receive information beyond this world, from Higher Dimensions. You have the capacity to see a bigger picture.  You have the capacity to tap into the Source of ALL knowledge.  Most of you already know this from your own experience.  Still, it’s easy to get sucked in by what others believe is true for several reasons stated below…

When you open yourself up to your Source for guidance and learn to trust it, you will never have to rely on what you see or hear to discern Truth (almost impossible now).  Or, spend your time and energy doing tons of research to try to get to the Truth (also not a reliable method anymore).  This is True Freedom! 
FREEDOM FROM THE HUMAN MIND THAT KEEPS US IN A BIND!  

As you embark on this journey into Divine Discernment, it is important to leave judgement behind.  Judgment buries Truth.  It drastically reduces our field of vision. Truthfully, how can we judge anything if we do not know how anything will turn out in ALL of space and time?  We can see in our own lives, how something that looked terrible at the time ended up be the biggest blessing.  I love this saying, “Everything works out in the end.  If it hasn’t worked out, it is not the end.”

Can you be absolutely certain that what you are witnessing IS or IS NOT for Highest Best Good?  GOD KNOWS what we could not possibly know from our limited human perspective.

We must be willing to change our mind as we open ourselves up to our God’s Mind.  This is our greatest obstacle to growth and freedom individually and collectively.

Because we are ONE, as we change our mind, others have an opportunity to change theirs.  No convincing is necessary.  However, if someone is open, what you are “guided” to say may help break them out of the prison of their mind.  This is how collective change happens…one mind at a time.  It may seem like change is happening out there.  When in reality, change is happening within and being extended “out there”.   

I’m reminded of how inspiration works.  I read this somewhere, however, the name is not coming to me right now.  I get it’s True. You may have an “inspired idea”,  something “you” didn’t think of.  The thought just arrived.  You have a choice of whether to act on this idea or not.  However, the idea has been birthed.  If you don’t act on it, someone will.   Our thoughts are “Out There”.  Even the inspired ones.  So are our feelings…

Emotions can be polarizing.  They can drag us around and attach us to belief systems.  When enough people feel a certain way, an energetic morphic field is created.  When created, it acts like a magnet, pulling others that are also emotionally charged the same way into the field.   Morphic fields based in Love/Truth are beneficial.  You might think of a fun “Flash Mob”.  Those based in untruth/fear is how violent, destructive riots are created. 

Sometimes our thoughts and feelings don’t even belong to us.  For gifted empaths, it’s easy to absorb the energy of thoughts and emotions from others and get pulled into morphic fields. These gifted beings must learn how to protect their energy fields while they help others heal.

Some rely on how they feel emotionally to make a decision.  This is not the same as your “gut feeling” or intuition.  And it is not reliable and not what they are for.  Our emotional reactions could have nothing to do with what is front of us.  You could be reacting to a painful experience from the past.  A sore spot that the present experience is rubbing against.  For instance, maybe you grew up in lack.  What you are hearing is provoking the fear of more lack.  Your “EGO” guidance will help you make a “fear-based” choice.  TRUTH will not argue with you.  You have been given the FREE WILL to choose fear.

 Thinking and remembering are one in the same and are based in past experience.

You must leave the past behind and move into the peaceful present to discern TRUTH.

The primary roles of emotions are to allow us to experience the richness of life AND to let us know when what “we are thinking” consciously or unconsciously is in alignment with Love or fear.  You will know by how you feel.  Are you afraid, stressed, depressed?  Or, are you joyful, peaceful, grateful, and at ease? 

Staying neutral and completely objective is the key to being a pure channel for Divine Discernment.   Easier said than done...right?  Even while you are working on processing hurts from the past, and bringing all unconscious thinking into the present, there is still a way to tap into TRUTH.

Our ego mind, in it’s over zealous attempt to protect us, hijacks all common sense when it is constantly fed fear.   Breathe… Step outside of the ego-mind and the world.  Leave the prison of your mind behind as you remember your natural way of knowing and being…

Another “Course in Discernment” workshop is coming in February 2025.   This will be an in-person and live Zoom workshop.  To learn more, click here.

Clearing the Mind of What’s Running from Behind

Spring into Spring with a Delicious Detox Lemonade from my upcoming  “Delicious Daily Detox Cookbook”.  Stay tuned for the release in April! (See Recipe at the end)

 I received a message from Spirit for a client the other day.  She suffers from digestive distress.  I heard…
 
“Do you want to be free?  You will have to get free from chronic negative thoughts.   They sabotage your health and well-being and disrupt peaceful digestion of “what is”.   Make up your mind”.
 
If your thoughts and actions are out of integrity with what you say you want, you will never have what you want.  In this case, the client says she wants health and well-being but doesn’t expect to have it.  Doesn’t believe she can have it.  Her thoughts and spoken words question if it is truly possible.  She is denying what she wants when she asked, “Will I always struggle?”  She is focused on the struggle…
 
The struggle is a result of “early programming”.  Of course, we all want health and well-being.  But what if there is a part of you that is constantly telling you it is not possible based on your childhood experience to have it?  And, what if this thought is running in the background so that you are often not “aware” of it?  Then you are constantly opposing what you say you want…unknowingly. 
 
Science says, what we focus on becomes… We are creating unconsciously until we move into the conscious mind what is running us from behind.  It takes an intentional, conscious effort to do this and then realign or remove the thoughts that are opposing our good. One minute meditation is a powerful tool for doing just this! 

You cannot change what you are not aware of.  You may be very surprised at how often you are thinking about what you “do not want” when you become totally aware of your thoughts.  One Minute Meditation was a miracle for me in the baby days of my practice.  Stepping into my most fulfilling Highest Work, Spirit made it clear I would need a clear mind.  
 
It goes like this.  Set an intention to hear the thoughts you are often not aware of.  Every waking hour stop (set a timer) and focus on your breath for one minute.  Have a journal with you.  NO judgment of the thoughts is allowed; you would just be judging a child that “learned” the untruth about themselves. Just notice them and go back to your breathing.  Afterwards, write them down and re-align with what you want. 
 
For instance; if you are thinking about how a co-worker is stressing you out, you are lining up with what you do not want.  You can tell.  Your body responds with constriction.  You hold your breath.  You tense up.  This energy is not in alignment with health and well-being.   It is sabotaging your body’s inborn ability to heal itself.   Realignment example:  Say… “Peace is always at hand.  I choose peace.”  Breathe in peace…
 
I pray you find this helpful. 
 
In love, gratitude and service,

Gail

The Power of the Creative Moment

“We are in the “Presence” of our Creator (God if you will)
when we are in the creative moment”.  


I experienced this in a most real way this weekend and yesterday as I worked in the kitchen training two new chefs so I can expand myself and stay focused on the healing work that is mine to do and the books that are mine to publish.

I’ve learned there is “Nothing for Nothing”.  There is Good to be uncovered in all things. Situations that seem most inconvenient can lead us into massive, mind-bending revelations if we remain open to them.    

What was the inconvenience?  My air conditioner went out this last Friday evening .   Terrible timing!   Not only are we in the “Dog Days” of summer in Texas, my son (an A/C guru) had just left town.  “After hours and weekend services” (emergencies) are super expensive.    I knew my son would be back on Sunday evening and I was willing to wait it out.

However, leaving for cooler shelter was not an option…I was committed to training these chefs Saturday, Sunday and Monday.  I needed them trained this weekend for chef services already committed to.  I texted them and explained the situation, telling them I would totally understand if they wanted to re-schedule.  One said “no problem”.  She has owned several restaurants and is used to hot kitchens.   “If you can’t take the heat, get out of the kitchen”…right?   Things shifted with the other and she ended up coming on Monday (I thought the A/C would be fixed by then).   As it happened I ended up not cooking on Saturday. It was late Monday night before the air-conditioning was up and running.

Over the course of the day on Monday all three  of us experienced the same “ah ha”.  When we were focused on the cooking; totally engaged in creativity, we were completely unaware of the heat.  We started at 92 degrees and ended at 97. (Saturday was not so bad.  The house had not had enough time to really heat up.)

We noticed at one point none of us had broken a sweat!  As soon as we brought our focus back into our surroundings we begin to notice the heat.  It was only then that we became uncomfortable and wet. 

What could have been a miserable experience, became a pleasant and even at times a joyful and fun one, full of awe and wonder as we became aware of this phenomenon. 

What became so clear to us through this experience?  What we focus on becomes our reality.  This is Quantum Physics in a nutshell.    And, the world disappears as we come into the Creative Presence.

“There is a way to be in the world and not of it”.  This is the way.   We are spirit having a human experience.  We are in a body, but what the body experiences does not define us or change who we truly are.  

“Nothing we could ever think, say or do will ever change what is True”.

When we are in our creative, infinite, undefinable state of being, we are living our True Nature as timeless spirit.

I challenge you today to prove this to yourself.   Our faith is reinforced through experience.   Change you focus, or as a client so eloquently said the other day, “Take a Shift!”   Shift the focus of your thoughts and see what happens.    Take note of what happens when you are in “creative mode”.  Bear witness to how the world disappears and with it any discomfort as you come fully into the present moment. 

I would love to hear about your “Creative Moment” experiences with this experiment.  Email me…[email protected]

Here’s to your Peace, Joy, LOVE and Abundant Health!

Healing the Relationship with Food… Part 2

Here is Part One in case you missed it:https://www.foodrevelation.com/healing-the-relationship-with-food-part-one/

Healing the body for many may mean re-establishing the relationship with our collective mother “Mother Nature”…What I call God’s Birthing Place.  The nurturing “organic” substanence for all forms of life comes from this womb.

The archaic definition of “organic” is “instrumental”.  Mother Nature is instrumental in the formation and nurturing of our bodies. 

Merriam Webster also defines organic as “organize”.  There is an organized structure to the creation of life.  Also, the word “fundamental” comes up.   This organic structure Mother Nature provides is fundamental in forming (informing) the “organized” organic whole.

A chemical reaction occurs when combining organic matter.  It is not the fundamental cause.  It cannot happen without the building blocks (the organization) that Mother Nature has already provided.

With all this being said, it makes sense that to rejuvenate, restore and maintain this human body and all bodies in nature for that matter, we need the perfect structure and building blocks that Mother Nature provides.  The chemical process is a step removed from this or can be many steps removed.

It is true we can raise the vibration of our food with our love and gratitude prayers and bring it more in alignment with what we need.   However, the more chemical a food becomes the further removed it is from Source and its nurturing, life sustaining energy.  Organic food is naturally most compatible to our organic bodies.

So, does this mean we must always strive for Mother Nature’s perfection in what we eat?  NO. Perfection is not a requirement in life.  Ironically, the need for perfection can take us out of alignment with our health and happiness by creating stress.   Judgement = Stress.  The body makes acid when under stress making it very hard to maintain a healthy pH.

If you are very inflexible with your food; always eating “the right” thing for fear of getting sick or beating yourself up for eating the “wrong thing”, the fear and judgment will sabotage your best efforts.   Fear is the energy behind all eating disorders; whether it is eating for perfection or eating to destroy perfection (your body).

Intention is everything.  If you are a “health nut” you can know if fear is running the show by asking one simple question.  “Am I eating to honor my body and support my God-given health or avoid dis-ease?”  

If you answered yes to the latter, you may want to take a closer look at what you are really trying to avoid.  What is the underlying fear?  As we undercover these fears, we uncover our Truth.  Someone said it like this (I can’t remember who), “Fear is just an initiation into fearlessness”.

There is “nothing for nothing”.
Every experience we have in life brings us closer and closer to our True Nature….LOVE. Through my experience with many clients over the years, I’ve come to realize, for many the relationship with food is mirroring a childhood perception of what “love is” based on their experience with a mother figure.  For instance; they may have felt unnurtured. 

Stay Tuned for Part 3 of “Healing the Relationship with Food”. … When the relationship with food is mirroring a mother/child relationship.  In this part I will share real life success stories from my client files. 

Thank you for tuning in and sharing.   Until next time, here’s to your Peace, Joy, LOVE and abundant Health!
