How perspectives fit together show art How perspectives fit together

spiritual principles made practical's podcast

I awoke wanting to have a greater acceptance and understanding of how the various perspectives I experience fit together.  In response, I asked that question in meditation and here's what I got... The stress in my life comes from giving more creedence to what other people say works than trusting what I've proven works for me.  I've gotten jobs that were the perfect jobs for me that I didn't apply for and didn't realize at the time were the perfect jobs for me.  In every case I got those jobs by being myself, not trying to be what I thought the employer wanted.  When I was...

Making every day fresh and new show art Making every day fresh and new

spiritual principles made practical's podcast

If we're growing spiritually, growing in our self acceptance, then every day is new.  If it's not, it's a sign there is growth available to us.  We can access that growth by being more focused in the present moment, more conscious of the thoughts in our mind, more aware of how our body is at this moment, or any other way that creates a focus in the present moment.   We all have unconsious thoughts that impact our life.  I offer thought coaching to move thoughts from the unconscious to the conscious.  When we are aware of a thought, we have the opportunity to choose to...

Detachment show art Detachment

spiritual principles made practical's podcast

Being attached to physical world outcomes doesn't produce the emotional benefits I desire.  Only internal acceptance of the wholeness I am can give me the conscious experience of the love, joy, wisdom, energy, compassion and powerf I desire.  Being increasingly focused internally allows me to be more detached to physical world circumstances.  For example, accepting that I whole and complete as I am allows me to act with less concern about how I'll be perceived by others.  This greater detachment allows me to take action more freely because I'm not counting on others outside...

Increasing my internal focus show art Increasing my internal focus

spiritual principles made practical's podcast

The more I focus inernally, the greater is my self acceptance.  The greater my self acceptance, the more coscious choice I have over what and how I create.  We are always creating.  The greater our internal acceptance, the more we ceate what we consciously choose to create.  The less aware we are of the thoughts in our mind, our freedom to choose which thoughts we act on, the impact thoughts both conscious and denied have in our life, the less control we have on the life we create for ourselves.   I offer thought coaching to assist people in being more conscious of...

Physical aspects of spiritual healing show art Physical aspects of spiritual healing

spiritual principles made practical's podcast

Almost all of us have had incorrect thoughts through out our life.  Those inaccurate thoughts eventually create a physical problem.  As we accept our thoughts and realize which are true and which are false, we release the disease that the false thoughts have created.   I recorded this podcast because I am experiencing alot of lactic acid in my muscles even when I'm not exercising.  I was concerned that there might be an underlying physical problem causing that.  As I put myself in a centerd state in recording the podcast, I became increasingly confident that the lactic...

Resistance to self realization show art Resistance to self realization

spiritual principles made practical's podcast

We all have unlimited potential.  It's internal resistance that prevents us from claiming ownership of that potential and consciously directing it as we choose.  Healing takes place through acceptance.  That includes healing the resistance within us that is keeping us from consciousy accepting the magnificence we are and consciously using our power and ability. In this podcast I attempt to more fuly accept the resistance I do and don't have to taking ownership of my potential.  It's a chalenge for me not to jump forward and try to act in spite of the resistance right away,...

Deepening inner focus show art Deepening inner focus

spiritual principles made practical's podcast

When we focus on the deepest part of ourselves, we are focusing on the part of ourself that is eternal and will never change; the best part of our self.  Because our innermost part will never change, to have alignment and all the benefits of alignment we need to get the parts of us that do change to align with our innermost self.  We can change our thinking, our behavior, our relationships, and how we view ourself.   So how do we increase our focus on our innermost self?  For me, it's what's left when thinking stops, peace.  My thinking stops when I observe thoughts as...

Finding solutions show art Finding solutions

spiritual principles made practical's podcast

We've all had something that has worked for us in life.  Identifying that allows us to choose to do more of what works for us, finding solutions. For me it's persistance and meditation.  I ask myself. "am I going to give up" when confronted with challenges I don't currently know how to meet.  Invaribly, the answer that I come up with is, "No, I'm not giving up".  Then I meditate, accepting the thoughts in my mind.  At first the thoughts are usually negative and defeatist.  As I accept the existence of. those thoughts and choose not to act on them, invariably I get...

My Resistance show art My Resistance

spiritual principles made practical's podcast

We all have resistance to tapping our unused abilities.  By accepting the existence of that resistance, we heal it in part.   My resistance, like a great many others, is the fear that if I accept and claim my wisdom, power and ability, I'll be ostracized and written off as not being a credible person.  This fear of being completely myself has been with me as long as I can remember.  I've chipped away at the fear.  The phrase, "There is no gaurantee that being myself will work, and I'm certain if it doesn't work, nother else would either.  It's my best chance." has...

We all have resistance to tapping our unused abilities.  By accepting the existence of that resistance, we heal it in part.  

My resistance, like a great many others, is the fear that if I accept and claim my wisdom, power and ability, I'll be ostracized and written off as not being a credible person.  This fear of being completely myself has been with me as long as I can remember.  I've chipped away at the fear.  The phrase, "There is no gaurantee that being myself will work, and I'm certain if it doesn't work, nother else would either.  It's my best chance." has been a big help to me.  Many times in my life I've found I need to more fully accept and express myself in order to move forward.  I've done this inspite of the fear.  Every time I can think of, the results have been tremendously positive.

I know I have both the wisdom and inspiration to dramatically uplift the consciousness of the world.  I believe I have the communication skills to make this happen.  I believe it is only my fear that is holding me back.  The more I accept my fear, the more determined I find myself to act inspite of that fear.

Here is some of the wisdom the world needs now to progress positively.  THE ONLY WAY TO SATISFY OUR NEED TO EXPERIENCE POWER IS TO ACCEPT THE POWER WE HAVE OVER OURSELF.  NO AMOUNT OF AUTHORITARINISM, NO AMOUNT OF MONEY, NO AMOUNT OF FOLLOWERS, WILL EVER FILL THAT NEED.  ONLY ACCEPTING OUR POWER OVER OUR SELF FILLS OUR NEED TO EXPERIENCE POWER.

Another piece of wisdom the world needs now is: WHAT WE DO TO OTHERS WE ARE DOING TO OURSELF.  WHEN WE UPLIFT OTHERS, WE ARE UPLIFTED.  WHEN WE HURT OTHERS, WE ARE HURT.  THERE IS A WIN WIN SOLUTION TO EVERY PROBLEM.  THERE HAS TO BE BECAUSE WE ARE ALL ONE.

I hope my example of acknowledging my fear and choosing to act in spite of it inspites you to do the same.  After all, example is the most powerful form of leadership.  As Gandhi said, be the change you want to make in the world.

I offer thought coaching to help claim the freedom to choose which thoughts we act on.   To set up a free initial consultation, contact me at scottfriedman40@gmail.com
