STEP #5 - HOW TO HEAL YOURSELF

EXPAND YOUR AUTHENTICITY, AWARENESS, CHARACTER, AND CONNECTIONS - Life is mainly about unlearning the past and expanding awareness into wholeness.

"All limitations are self-imposed."
-- Oliver Wendell Holmes

HEALTH is a state of being.  It is soul expressing through you with no distortions.

DISEASE is consciousness distortions (egotism, self-centeredness, ignorance, defences, attachment, etc.).

Soul/Spirit has no disease.

As love, wisdom, and our personal power comes through us, our subconscious mind filters and distorts it according to our past conditioning, limiting beliefs, cultural upbringings, personal style, and natural character. Our distortions, pains, and blocks persist in the body and are enslaved in the mind.

They are bits of consciousness frozen. They are Soul energy blocked.

We each have the power to make ourselves, whole, authentic, and powerful. And when we are our true selves we NATURALLY attract, create, and experience our fulfilling dreams.

There is a movement towards more cooperation, order, sensitivity, receptiveness, responsibility. and courage.

There is more heart development, spiritual awareness, and seeing from higher, soulful perspectives.

We work on balancing the dualities of life. We develop morals and ethics and obeys societal laws.
