Are You Ready to Live Your Life From a ”Higher Consciousness”?
We all want inner peace, love and to be loved, sprinkled with joy and resilience to transition through the ebbs and flows of life. Recently my life got turned upside down and it was in that mess that I understood what spirituality meant, and what attaining Higher Consciousness could look like in my own life.
These wise words from Marianne Williamson embody the essence of being internally and externally aware, the foundational piece to attaining Higher Consciousness:
“Something very beautiful happens to people when their world has fallen apart: a humility, a nobility, a higher intelligence emerges at just the point when our knees hit the floor.”
Take this Higher Consciousness quiz:
People raised on love will do anything for you.
People raised on survival will do anything to you.
Which person are you?
People who live life aligned to love have attained Higher Consciousness.
As those messy months unravelled, my partner and two life friends sat with me in the fear of the unknown path I was on. It was at that moment that I realised it was so simple to live life better in any given moment. All I needed to do was throw away all the supposed “rules” and expectations that my various environments and unresolved trauma were placing on myself. I am writing this with the intention to pass this message of Higher Consciousness onto you.
So many of us suffer from loneliness, depression, anxiety, addictions of some sort, and so on. Yet the real reason humans are here is to enjoy life through exploration and love. Imagine if you can tap into this feeling of Higher Consciousness for a moment, you will come to realise just how impactful it is on your mental health. Eventually by deliberately choosing this lighter and wiser feeling allows this to become your ‘state of being’.
Let’s first define what Higher Consciousness is not:
- Believing that you are better than people.
- Using spirituality for your own ego, self-image or gain.
- Thinking you need to go live in a monastery for the rest of your life.
- Buying into the idea that you need to have a perfect daily routine to be spiritual.
- Reading too many self-help books and attending courses but not actually implementing the lessons.
- Having to be from a certain religion to believe in it.
The beauty of Higher Consciousness is that any human on this planet can reach it. All you need is the desire to tap into this higher energy and feel more fulfilled in life.
Let’s unpack what Higher Consciousness means:
- Knowing that material things don’t bring genuine happiness or security.
- Being grateful for life every single day, even on the mundane days.
- Pursuing the people, events, and hobbies that bring you light, love and fulfillment.
- Acknowledging that there may be tough moments in life, but the good ones always follow.
- Seeing love in all the people and nature you interact with. This takes presence particularly with family members, your significant other or work colleagues in different seasons.
- Believing in yourself and your purpose in life.
When you are tapped into this Higher Consciousness, you are experiencing life on volume 10 and it feels sweeter. Its gift is in the trivial day-to-day happenings don’t affect you as much. Even when faced with disheartening and overwhelming news, you will find the strength to process the situation and live the life you love. In this tapestry of life, you will be thrown curve balls and things may not go your way. Remember no human on this planet can escape the unexpected.
As you tap into this higher energy, trust that life will work itself out. You inherently know that the good times will come back around and that there are lessons to be learned in the tough seasons and ever so often a blessing emerges to course correct you.
Well, there are endless possibilities and the way to achieve it is just doing the things that make you feel more alive and more aligned with this ‘state of being’. Now let’s go from being the awareness of Higher Consciousness to the actions in day-to-day life to achieve it.
7 Ways to Tap into Higher Consciousness:
- Follow your passions and the things that excite you.
- Start noticing the coincidences in your life and know that nothing is by chance.
- Stop placing worth in your status, salary, cars, house, and other material things.
- Deepen your relationships with the people in your life whom you love and care about.
- Don’t get caught up in the daily drama with other people or events. this steals your presence and drains your energy.
- Stop caring what other people potentially think of you and stay in your lane, their opinions won’t matter in a year from now.
- Surrender to the course correction that will be offered, make the adjustments to an ongoing process or project in order to achieve a desired outcome.
When you embody a Higher Consciousness and notice just how amazing life truly is, your relationships will improve significantly. You will be lighter, happier and not fazed by small inconveniences. Most importantly, your relationship ‘to self’ will grow stronger every day. You will be confident in your values and life’s purpose, and you will make the most of the limited time you have here on Earth.
