Receptive to Bliss (part 3) by Debora Myers
Creating an Uncluttered Mind
If you really want to feel bliss in your life, learn to integrate
balance into all aspects of it. After all it is YOUR life! As
you do that you can incorporate these same balances into your
sexual life. This fall and winter I will give you an introduction
to the Five Keys to Sexual Bliss. We will use the five pointed
star of balance as our map.
The Five Keys to Lovemaking Magic and a Life of Bliss:
1. Creating an Environment that is a haven.
2. Creating a Physical Body that is healthy and receptive.
3. Creating an uncluttered Mind.
4. Creating Emotional balance.
5. Creating a Spiritual connection to the Creator
Empty Your Mind - Go ahead, just try it.
To become receptive to bliss we must gather and then dump all
the clutter, static and mental lint that clings to our mind.
It's kind of like cleaning out your closet in the fall to make
room for the new. It makes sense. We need to clear our minds
so that we have more room for input of positive programming
and thoughts. We also will be better able to tune into ourselves,
our desires, our erotic impulses and be less distracted by the
buildup of life around us. As we do so, we can consciously redirect
our thoughts and influence our emotional surges into a more
constructive life-way. Remember that the spiritual, physical,
mental, emotional and environmental are interconnected. We are
seeking to balance these aspects of our lives for a more blissful
life.
We've all been there at one time or another. He's running his
hand across your back and down your thigh. Kissing the back
of your neck and groping into your panties. Or, you're sitting
on the waterfront trying to enjoy the view but where are your
thoughts? You find yourself thinking about the chicken in the
fridge that needs to be cooked before it goes bad or about the
laundry you left in the washing machine to sour. These minor
worries are easier to delete from your mind but they interfere
with your bliss nonetheless. But what about the major worries
that many in this world have?
Major worries or thoughts may require extra work when it comes
to quieting our minds. I'm thinking about the sister that's
child has just been diagnosed with Leukemia, or the sister living
on the Gaza strip, or my brother that must fight in a war he
doesn't support ÞõHow do you quiet your mind under such circumstances?
Discipline.
These are the circumstances and life lessons where we must
give ourselves (even if only a few minutes a day) quiet of mind
for a few minutes of bliss- of tuning into the higher love of
the creator/creation and universal love consciousness.
This will help us to get through the next day and stay open
for the little miracles that happen especially in the middle
of war and crisis. We must look to the glass half full- we must
keep open enough to the love in every situation.
Cleaning Out The Closet
The technique is simple. Under less drastic circumstances there
is no real reason to make this process difficult. Try to prepare
a physical environment that is conducive to relaxation. If you
are in an environment that is distracting do the best you can.
Do little meditations in quiet moments as circumstances allow.
My grandma-friend would call in ÞÏpeace Þð between shelling
during WWII when she lived in Poland. She would not only pray
for an end to the war, she quieted her mind and let peaceful
energy in so that she could have the strength to carry on and
deal with the horrors of war, care for her family and deal with
the Nazi's that had occupied her family home etc ÞõThe point
is that she did make time and she did carry on and ended up
with the clarity of mind to not only protect her family but
she saved people by hiding them in her haystacks etc ÞõKept
her family safe and outwitted the Nazi's! She is 87 and still
working to help people today!Breathe! Start with deep cleansing
breaths, inhaling through the nose and exhaling through the
mouth. Breathe in deeply and expand your rib cage to inhale
as deeply as possible. Quiet your mind. As the jabbering thoughts
rush in and distract, acknowledge them but do not focus on them.
Allow them to dissipate and continue with breathing. Focus on
your breath. In and out, in and out Þõ. Practice will make perfect.
Keep breathing. Call in the Light! Say a prayer of protection
and pull in the God/Goddess/Great Spirit/ Allah higher consciousness
energy in to protect you. Whatever label or tradition you follow,
pull in the love of creation and fill your heart, soul and body
with this divine and universal love energy. This will keep you
protected from negativity as you open yourself.
Visualize! A technique used to replace negative thoughts is
to visualize something peaceful to focus on that visualization
instead of the distracting thoughts. Many folks visualize themselves
sitting on an abandoned beach and focus on the imaginary or
cosmic waves crashing in. Some folks focus on a sunset, or rainfall
Þõor the warmth of the ÞÏsun Þð on their shoulders as well as
the deep breaths. Distracting thoughts will come in less and
less. As they do come in, however, focus on the visualization.
This is a good tool to retrain your mind into settling down
and quieting. Sometimes our subconscious mind is so full of
fears and yucky stuff that very ugly and strange, disturbing
images and thoughts may surface. Realize that it is simply your
subconscious desperately trying to deal with life's problems.
Don't take these images too seriously. Acknowledge them as fear
based projections, and tell them that you see them, then release
them.Breathe! Continue Breathing! Use your breaths to help release
your fears.
Allow yourself to come back up into your conscious, wakeful
mind as you become overly distracted and fidgety. As with any
discipline, practice makes perfect. At first you may just be
able to meditate a few minutes at a time. But as your mind gets
used to it and you establish a routine, you will be able to
meditate and clear your mind for longer periods of time Þõtherefore
dealing with more distractions and negative programming. As
you practice this you will find that in conscious moments throughout
your day, you'll be able to dump negative or distracting thoughts
automatically. This is a learned behavior and ultimately only
you can retrain yourself. You can always hire help to accelerate
the process. A trained hypnotist, counselor, psychologist or
psychiatrist can help you get started or help you deal with
tougher issues seeming to plague your mind such as horrors of
violent memories, abuse etc ÞõBy clearing your mind of the negative
input and distractions we leave space for the good stuff! Without
all those distractions we will find that it is much easier to
tune into all the beauty, love and bliss surrounding us! Blessed
are we if we learn to look at the gifts bestowed upon us. Always
take life one day at a time, live in the present and strive
to move onward and upward. You can create your own reality!
