The Challenge To Remain In The Light

What is the one area of your life that you would prefer to improve or change entirely? Mine without question would be to remain in the Light.

We live in a digital age, where we have instant access to information of all varieties… some truthful, others not so accurate. Once in a while this leads to something of value, but for the most part it is just a bombardment of noise, which is mostly designed to make us purchase and consume more products and services than we really need.

Scare tactics, for example, encourage us to buy more medication and nutritional supplements than any reputable doctor would recommend. Fearmongering convinces us to install excessive additional security for our homes. And airbrushed models tempt us into buying an endless assortment of goods that seldom add much value to our daily lives.

Meanwhile many of us have the tendency to complain about the government, the exorbitant rates charged for our monthly utility services, and the escalating cost of food and basic necessities.

The personal challenge for me is to allow myself the guilty pleasure of discussing any of these topics without vibrating into a negative state of mind. I can physically feel, in my body, the moment my energy starts to get into that negative energy frequency.

And once that happens, I can see the Light dimming significantly in my surroundings. It is an extremely discomforting sensation, and I try to remind myself instantly  to switch gears and allow my being to reconnect and realign with my true self, which would greatly prefer to operate in the Light.

Light must come from inside. You cannot ask the darkness to leave; you must turn on the light ~ Sogyal Rinpoche

To imply this is an easy feat to accomplish would be dishonest. I actually struggle with it continually, and I have asked myself on numerous occasions why this challenge remains to plague me? I have concluded this is a human factor that helps me identify my role in life, and my purpose to be on this planet.

One of my greatest joys is to impart information to those exceptional souls who have the courage and trust to consult a psychic in the first place. In order to complete my job for those individuals in all fairness and accuracy, I must place myself in an establishment of Light, truth and honesty, thus impeding any negative influence from an accurate reading.

My own ongoing test to ensure I am continually working in the Light, is to monitor my reaction to news someone is sharing with me. Maybe they just landed an extraordinary position with a new company, or perhaps they have just purchased a beautiful home, or brand new car of their dreams. If I am authentically happy for them, despite anything negative happening in my own life, then I know I am still operating in the Light. For it is in the Light that our being always receives the most joy. If I sense any feelings of envy or discord, I instantly realize I have stepped out of alignment, and I then make a conscience effort to change the negative energy tainting my vibration.

Light is to darkness what love is to fear; in the presence of one the other disappears ~ Marianne Williamson

If any of this sounds familiar to you, I hope you can understand first of all that you are not alone. I feel secure in saying that this is probably the norm for most awakened human beings. The first step of course is to recognize what is happening and then instantly reminding yourself to return to the Light. Once you get the hang of it, it gets easier as time goes by.

Perhaps this is not one of your own personal challenges. If so, my hat really goes off to you. If not, then consider what your  biggest personal challenge is in this life that tends to dim your energy frequency, and then do all that you can to change it around to bring yourself back into the Light.
