The Top 10 Ways to Raise Your Consciousness

Life can be a GIFT or a NIGHTMARE, depending on where you choose to operate from consciously. Practiced regularly, the following 10 tips will assist you in shining your beautiful unique light so brightly that your resulting raised consciousness will be a GIFT to yourself, humanity, and the Cosmos.

1. Forgive yourself and others.

Life is too short to hold on to regrets, grudges, miscommunications, or disappointments. Free yourself by forgiving and letting go of any negative energy you’re holding on to about yourself and/or others. There are many ways to do this. One way is to write down anything you’re ready to let go of and ceremonially tear it into small pieces and throw it away as you forgive. You may even choose to verbally forgive anyone you’ve been resenting. Either way, the process of forgiving yourself and others will result in your feeling light and free, and consequently raise your vibration.

2. Practice gratitude and appreciation.

Whatever you focus on grows. So, when you focus on every thing in your life you have to feel grateful for and all the wonderful people you appreciate, the universe hands you more to feel grateful about. It’s a wonderfully reciprocal consciousness raising process.

3. Live each day as though it were your last.

If today was your last known day in this lifetime, with what type of people would you surround yourself? What would you say to the people you care about? What personal gifts would you make sure you imparted to humanity and the earth? Live each day as if it was your last, and you will be living in a state of light, love and unconditional contribution.

4. Meditate/Pray.

You open up a direct link between yourself and the spiritual realm when you meditate and/or pray. Meditation and prayer can be used to bring you closer to your creator energy, raise your vibration, bring you peace, clarity, joy, and connection, as well assist you in experiencing a perfectly balanced state between your mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual bodies.

5. Suspend judgment.

This world is laden with judgment, irresponsibility, and finger pointing. One judges another to feel less guilty about one’s own misgivings. Judgment energy is dense, dark, and heavy. On the other hand, unconditional acceptance is light, free, and accepting. Let go of judging and criticizing yourself and others. Everyone is on a different path, and some appear to be further ahead on their path than others. Neither path is better nor worse than another. Raise your consciousness to one of acceptance.

6. View every experience as a GIFT.

If you look back at occurrences in your life, you can easily see how even the worst situations you experienced in your life ended up teaching you invaluable lessons and therefore ended up putting you in the perfect place for your continuing development. When you view every experience, the good, the bad, and the ugly as a GIFT, life flows more like a gentle, inspiring breeze.

7. Stay consciously aware of all of your thoughts and feelings.

Until you raise the consciousness of the entire human race, it is extremely easy to fall back in to all pervasive negative patterns of complaining and feeling like a victim of society and a victim of your life. To stay out of these patterns, check in with yourself your present thoughts and feelings several times a day. When you catch yourself in the Negative zone, don’t feel badly about it and beat yourself up. Simply choose to switch your consciousness to one of gratitude and positive thinking. Remain conscious.

8. Treat your physical body as your temple.

Your body is the only vehicle you’ve been given for this ride called “LIFE.” The better you care for your body by eating a healthy, balanced diet, and by implementing a regular exercise routine, and by giving your body the rest it requires, the more you will experience increased energy, vitality, joy, and freedom. Honor, love, appreciate and take extra good care of your body, and you will be raising your energy and your consciousness.

9. View the world through the eyes of a child.

Observe a baby or a young child. It won’t take you long to notice that young children are constantly totally enthralled by the process of observing and experiencing the wonder and beauty in every single thing, color, texture, and person they meet. They can’t get enough! Look at every tree, sunset, cloud, and human being as a child would and you’ll be in a constant state of wonder, joy, surprise, acceptance, and enlightenment.

10. Give LOVE, LOVE, LOVE from your heart.

It’s all about love. Do you remember the feeling of being in love for the first time? Why was it so wonderful? That’s because love is the highest vibration. Allow yourself to receive love unconditionally from others. Give love from your heart unconditionally to yourself and others, and you will experience the highest state of consciousness possible.

Everything in your life is the cause of what you think and believe. Take a good look at your life from a perspective that you are the creator. Even though you may not believe you can do anything about your life right now, do it anyway and make an inventory of your life as it is now.

? What do you like about it and what not?
? What would you like to change?
? What would your perfect life look like?

Setting goals and intentions in your life is the single most important task in the entire process of creating the life you always dreamed about.

Can you imagine that almost 95% of all people simply don’t do this? And the rest of the 5% do it, but only 10% of this small number ever reach their goals. That’s why so many people struggle and businesses fail. Not enough people set clear intentions about what they want in life. Like other important things that could help us attain truly fulfilled lives, the simplest things in life are mostly overlooked.

How to Program Your Subconscious for Success

Setting goals and intentions is a conscious exercise. Achieving these goals is a spiritual and subconscious exercise. This is where the Dream Manifestation Wizard comes in. By using intentions combined with images and audio plus repetition, you program your subconscious in the most efficient way possible. There are three ways to program your subconscious:

1. Intensity – Imagine putting your hand on a hot stove
2. Repetition – Remember learning poems?
3. Synergy – Conscious mind and subconscious mind work together

Craft Powerful Affirmations that Work Like Magic

After you have figured out what your perfect life would look like, formulate it into short and powerful goals and intentions.

The key to writing effective affirmations is that they must be positive and stated in the present moment. A good starting point is to use something you don’t like or you would like to change and then rephrase it. For example, you may not like being in debt. You can rewrite this into “Money is flowing to me easily and I enjoy it in abundance.” Use only words with positive associations. Don’t use the word “debt” as you don’t want your subconscious to create debt! Now you may start to understand the inefficiency of signs and statements like these:“Don’t cross this line” or “Don’t get nervous about this.” Your subconscious mind does not know the difference between Do and Don’t. It is the job of the subconscious to manifest your thoughts, even if the thought is negative. The statements above will only increase what you don’t want, so be careful how you think about it and how you phrase it.

Choose Intentions that Align You with Your Life Dreams

Intentions are another powerful way to use the Dream Manifestation Wizard effectively. Intentions are more powerful than goals as they work on a higher consciousness level. Intentions create a new pathway in your life.

A path that you can follow until your life dreams are fulfilled.

When you craft intentions use a time frame, otherwise you are not able to break it apart into smaller goals. Lets assume you want to own your own home at some point. Decide when that should be and be precise about the details. For example: “By the end of 2009 I live in my own 3b/2b townhouse.” Make sure you add a picture that’s a close match to the house you want. Next, create some supportive goals that act as milestones: “By the end of this month I have the perfect financial plan for buying my own home,” and “Within six months I have enough for a down payment,” and so on.

A Profound Way to Rewire Your Brain

Every time you see your goal or intention on the Wizard’s screen you physically rewire your brain by creating new neural pathways. This is the most powerful way to change the definition of yourself. In the beginning, your conscious mind may experience some resistance to your new goal or intention. This simply means you are getting out of your comfort zone and growing. Over time it will get easier for your mind to accept these new commands. After a couple of weeks your brain will be completely rewired and your new goal, intention or belief will be fully integrated. In a nutshell: Use affirmations to change your attitudes; use intentions to set a path that you will follow until it is fulfilled; use goals to set milestones for this path.
