Out of Crisis and Into Joy!

How I made the decision to tap the Universe to navigate my way out of crisis 

In my book Conscious Musings I talk about all of the external influences that routinely threaten our power and our ability to tap our own consciousness and that of Universal consciousness.  Have our traditional belief systems quarantined us from our ultimate potential?  Do the circumstances of our lives dictate our reality, or can we consciously and positively use our emotions and the power of our internal antenna to consciously create the reality of our lives and become the limitless and creative beings that we truly are? Although I'd aways sensed that the answer to this question was undoubtedly yes,  I had to live the answer for myself!

"The only source of knowledge is experience." - Albert Einstein

At the end of the book I tell the story of my own crisis and the emotional state that threatened to push me off of the path of joy and happiness and into a bottomless pit of depression.  I tell of how I made the conscious decision to use that “internal antenna” to glean messages from the Universe.  How I used synchronicities as my compass to navigate out of the crisis and most importantly that it worked!

Watch as I discuss how synchronicity "saved me" from a state of anxiety and depression and guided me toward a joyful existence.

Most of us are habituated into a worldview that dictates that our circumstances are largely in the hands of our external reality - the people, places, and things that surround our physical day-to-day lives and the act of routine - doing the same thing, the same way - day in and day out, certainly makes it seem that what you see is what you get.  That is until you have the gumption to switch it up, shift your focus and tune in to the true undercurrent of reality, complete with its vast and endless possibilities.  This epiphany is powerful and it is in the conscious linking into this field of awareness, knowledge, and wisdom that can free you from the grip of a marginalized reality.  Challenge is often the hand that pushes us toward this realization.  When you get to that very point - that bottom point and you make the conscious decision to tap that which we are all connected to - a CONSCIOUS Universe, we can then unchain ourselves from an expected reality and begin to live a truly empowering life! 

When you realize that you have EVERYTHING you need to guide you out of challenge and into the life you truly desire, the Universe will see YOU and support you; will work with you, dance with you and take your hand!  And how refreshing it is to know that you have a partner and an ally that is infinitely more powerful and wise than any outside “authority” telling you what your life is; what you can or cannot do, and most importantly who you really are!

In my own case, I was driven to make the conscious decision to trust the Universe – I made it my friend, and it took my hand and literally guided me out of crisis and back into joy!
