It’s no doubt that connecting to higher consciousness and higher realms is an extraordinary experience, but how do we keep that state of high vibration while also fulfilling responsibilities of our daily life?
It is essential to have a connection to our higher self, or higher guidance and to be aware of the truth of this part of ourselves. We can gain so much guidance and clarity for our life by establishing a connection with our higher self. It is especially helpful in those moments when we are not sure what direction to take or which way to go, our higher self knows and can guide us. Interacting with our higher self and other realms can be extremely liberating and incredibly heart filling; however, it can be easy to want to stay in higher realms most often when earthly tasks can seem so mundane. Remembering that we are spiritual beings having a human experience and we need to create a balance between our spirituality and human existence.
As a human living on earth there are tasks required to support us in our daily lives such as grocery lists, balancing checkbooks (If anyone does that anymore), budgeting, scheduling routine maintenance on the house, maintaining the car, scheduling appointments for yourself and your family, and so on. This is work for our ego mind. We need the human part of ourselves and our third dimensional mind to keep our life in a state of balance. This is a non-negotiable. We cannot leave our human self behind (even if we wanted to).
There was a point on my own spiritual journey where I wanted to abandon everything and let go into my higher calling. I noticed my tendency to want to stay in the higher realms, and I witnessed this in others around me, mostly in those that also followed in a spiritual faith. It seemed to be that they became very spiritually focused and had amazing spiritual experiences, but their life in the third dimensional reality was chaotic. To me this indicated that more healing work was needed. And this was exactly my experience too. Just when I thought my work here was done little did I know, the work right in front of me was essential to my ascension process and inviting more harmony into my life.
Through my own healing process I discovered that my need to run was rooted in unhealed feminine and sacral chakra wounds. When I went through a process to experience my own kundalini energy for the first time, I was awakened and was able to clear and release what I needed. I became aware of deep childhood wounds that were waiting to be healed, and because I was willing to let those stories go it has now liberated me and created more balance within me and harmony within my feminine and masculine energies.
This experience was so impactful for me that I wanted to share with you key elements to be mindful of when creating more synergy between your spirituality and practical responsibilities:
It's essential to embrace our spirituality while also dedicating time to checklist items and organizing our lives.
When responsibilities are attended to alongside spiritual practices, a beautiful synchronization occurs between the spiritual and material worlds.
Balancing life’s responsibilities with living through the heart creates harmony between your higher self and human self.
This balance reflects the harmony between Feminine and Masculine energies within our bodies, influencing our external lives.
Allow yourself to live from your heart, be free, and open up to your destiny and life purpose.
While living from the heart is vital, it’s also important to set aside time for routine tasks, giving your ego mind something productive to do.
Let your mind handle the “thinking” tasks for about 5%-10% of your day, or more if your job requires it.
Spend the rest of your time living from your heart.
When we leave our human self and responsibilities behind, we can often create more destruction in our life than healing. Connecting to the wondrous alternate realities and spiritual spaces can easily make us want to stay there and abandon our earthly existence. Incorporating more awareness and choosing to do your inner work, and live from your heart we can make our lives so much more enriching and be beneficial to all those around us. Be free and live from your heart space. Bring this knowledge into your life and you will have a more enriching human experience.
Namaste,
