Aligning the Whole Self – Liberating Life-force
A lively spirit, a playful spirit, an old soul, a spritely spirit, a spark in his eyes, her powerful presence, a force to be reckoned with…. We have many ways of recognizing the life-force in us and others. A playful puppy, a happy child, and a wonderfully meaningful experience each teach us of the generative and connective life-force we have within. Our life-force is our aliveness. Life-force is the twinkle of energy behind the eyes, the spark that we see in some and not so much in others. This most primary form of energy that is the breath of life in all things living is within us, connects us to one another, and connects us to the Universal Consciousness.
Developing and allowing our life-force to flow fully and naturally is supremely wonderful and brings richness and power to our lives. The process of allowing it to grow and flow within us to maximum capacity is purely a positive one. Our life-force will grow and flow more freely the more we are either quiet in our conscious mind or are directing thought to positive growth. Life-force is allowed to flow unobstructed in a vessel that is resonating with positive vibration. This unrestrictive flow is also related to our state of Natural Being that will be discussed later, where consciousness is given the back seat and Being is given primary focus. Consider for the sake of increasing this wonderful force, that of thought and emotion, love is the greatest feeling you can generate for increasing life-force followed by gratitude and kindness. Happy thoughts and feelings, a purposeful life, right action and a healthy body all contribute to the creative development of life-force, and once again the power of conscious thought is inextricably linked to this critical component of our Whole Self.
