Lately, I've written and YouTubed about adversity. And what perfect timing since this has been the most adverse week, and possibly year I've experienced. As mentioned in, Sunspiration #92: The Silver Lining to Adversity, life is an ebb and flow of positive and adverse times.
Adversity sucks, but it makes us stronger and more "powerful" individuals. It builds and thickens your foundation so when the next road block hits, the core of your being is so strong that you can't be knocked down as easily as when your foundation consisted of toothpicks and splinters. . During hard times, focus on the good things, the things that you have and the people who support you in life. Express thanks and remember there is light at the end of the tunnel. For some reason unbeknownst to you, you are enduring this hardship for a reason....and one of the reasons is to strengthen your will.

I, like many people, are concerned with what is happening to society. The deterioration of the family nucleus, decency and our health is on the rise.
There is a battle between the light and the dark, not only within our own minds, but also in society. We have lost our way and technology has disconnected us from the source. Rampant sex, chronic drug use, backstabbing, mind manipulation, bitching-and-complaining - this is energy fueled by darkness to keep you stuck and in a cycle of despair. In a recent Youtube video, I discuss the difference between being a talker and a doer. Growing up, my father continuously told me, "There is nothing in life greater than your health.Without your health, you have nothing." My father is absolutely correct. Along with optimal health, we must rediscover contentment. Never in human history has life been so abundant, and so depressed at the same time. Faithfulness in any relationship - work, romantic, platonic - is necessary to keep the bonds of life strong and hearty. Flakiness is on the rise and the "me me me" culture is overly destructive. ​These lessons don't come easily and sometimes it takes walking into the path of darkness to reveal the light in every situation. If you want a change and a better life, adopt these three "golden rules." ​ As always, inspired by the sun, Elizabeth Join Mind Body Soul Food Every Sunday for some inspiration, or Sunspiration, where we analyze quotes and sweet nothings in 150 words or less.

How many of us admire the Romans, Vikings and Greek Gods? The admiration stems not only from their physical power, but the strength that resides in their heart and soul. They fought for what they believed in meanwhile connection to their inner wisdom.
It is natural for humans to admire strong (willed) people. But, this strength is often the result from overcoming adversity, hardships and obstacles. It is important to recognize that whatever obstacle you are going through in this moment, it is for your betterment. In order for carbon material to become a diamond, it undergoes stress, pressure and extreme weathering. When under hardships, know that there is a silver lining to this experience, and this experience will lead you to a better life.

Everyday we wake up with the ability to make a myriad of choices. We can choose to help ourselves. We can choose to manipulate people. We can choose to do something, ignore something or make something of ourselves or live in fear.
Maturity is when you pick yourself up by your bootstraps and start making changes to those behavioral loops and actually do something about your situation. Every experience we endure is a piece of the soul's ascension process. And every experience - good or bad - is part of our path to maturity. ​ As always, inspired by the sun, Elizabeth Join Mind Body Soul Food Every Sunday for some inspiration, or Sunspiration, where we analyze quotes and sweet nothings in 150 words or less.

Recently, I published posts in regards to self-discovery such as, Why You Should Pursue Joy, Not Happiness and Sunspiration #89: Only You Know What Your Soul Needs, to inspire people to choose themselves and find the self-love that is within.
Most people do not realize that powerful effects of imprints and how they affect one's psychological state. Imprints begin while a baby grows in a mother's womb. Whether its a dose of TLC or a hit of heroin, these imprints alter the baby's developing body and consciousness. The same applies to adulthood. Everyone deserves "good things" whether that is being treated with respect or having positive self talk. If you find yourself hating things about yourself or lowering your standards then it is time to remove those negative imprints from your life and imprint your mind, body and soul with something healthier.

The people in this world are messed up. Through the art of detachment, I've watched people become socially engineered to believe in the many constructs that are leading to societal destruction.
Drugs, sexual liberation, artificial intelligence - we have to ask ourself if any of this will benefit ourselves as well as society? So many people are caught up in the rat race, that they refuse to listen to the voice inside their head that is screaming for help. No one knows what is going on inside your head. But at some point you have to step into the light and take charge of the shit in your life. No one but you can solve your chronic pain, emotional distress, broken heart or insecurities. Through the help of counseling and healing modalities, you can overcome these obstacles and barriers in your life.

We are all on a journey in life. My present path revolves around synchronicity, meeting people who have similar alignments, or pasts, as myself. Spiritual people say "everyone is interconnected."
I agree. However, darkness is also interconnected. Beings and energy of the dark are connected the same way that beings and energy of the light are forever intertwined. One "goal" in life is to become so bright like a lamp, that you have the wisdom and strength to navigate through the dark. ​Whether it is the darkness of your mind or resisting the urges of "dark" activity, the light that is within you is forever connected to God, nature and people who love you, who will aide you on your path in life.

I'm an advocate for personal growth and development. It's very important to me and I have used alternative spiritual methods to discover who I am as a person and a spiritual being.
The dark and the light resides within every one of us. Through reading astrology, numerology and other spiritual texts, I accepted the light and the dark that sat within me, and chose to reach for the light to overcome obstacles, behavioral loops and patterns. ​Although I learned new information, I took that wisdom and applied it directly to thoughts, actions and behaviors. Much of the fear, anxiety and negative self-talk that sits within us is what holds us back in many areas of life. Unlearn the old and welcome in the new.

I believe our soul is the gateway to our higher mind. And our higher mind is the gateway to our soul. Those clouded with addictions, of any kind, may experience may hear a voice inside their head guiding them to a better life.
Get a counselor. Eat healthier. Stop having one night stands. Stop binge drinking.....whatever the message, this is the soul trying to speak. The soul thrives off the light and gets "depressed" when in the dark for too long. Your soul is like a. shield calling you to walk into the light, freeing you from heartache despair. Life is a journey and we walk many paths in order to find the right "way" in life. Like a shield, your soul is guiding you to higher places, so stop, listen and think - what is your soul trying to tell you?

And so many of us do not do things because of fear. Fear sabotages healthy relationships, our dreams, our goals - basically fear affects any area of life. In matters of the heart, fear often fuels this organ. After a loved one crushes our soul, most people don't heal and operate their future in fear. Fear of rejection. Fear of abandonment. Fear of opening up emotionally and the other person runs away. Many people operate in fear mode in fear of getting hurt. So what do you do? At some point, life will throw us a learning lesson and we will be presented with the opportunity to face or run away from our fears. Those who persevere usually reap the rewards from God and those who runaway will be given the same life lesson over and over again until they conquer their fear and behavioral patterns.
