Chakra & Spirit Balancing Meditation

This 10 step meditation is design to heal and balance your chakras and your spirit with your body. I have used this meditation for many years. I hope this simple meditation will heal you and balance you in ways you never thought possible. I hope it will change your life as it has changed mine.

Step one: Rub your hands together real fast for about 3 minutes or so. Till you feel the energy pulsing through them. Then play with the energy see if you can expand it or condense it for as long as you can. This will awaken you to deeper understanding of subtle energy.

Step Two: Sit in a chair hard back preferred, so you can sit straight, but be relaxed, get comfortable, close your eyes, and focus on your breathing. Deep slow breathes; Focus : inhale light. Exhale darkness,11 times: Focus: inhale light, exhale light, 11 times: Focus: inhale love, exhale love 11 times.

Step Three: Visualize a golden white light coming down from the universe. Pulsing down through your crown chakra, your third-eye chakra, your throat, your heart, your solar plexus, your sacral, and your root chakra, and down into the earth. Take a few moments to feel and relax in this loving healing light.

Step Four: Visualize a Golden Red Light coming up from the Earth and spiraling with the Golden White light, Flowing up through your Root chakra, sacral chakra, solar plexus, heart, throat, third-eye, crown, back to the source of the golden white light. Relax and take this combined nurturing healing love in for a few moments or minutes.

Step Five: Focus on your root chakra see it as a red ball, study it, notice if is is dark, or bright, does it have black spots? Then bring in the vibrations of the golden white light from above and the Golden Red light form the earth into your root chakra. Allow these Vibrations to clean and purify your root chakra until the energy flowing through your root chakra is turning bright golden red. Then expand your root chakra. as far as you can. Allow and will your root chakra to expand. (If it does not expand easily then this may have further issues that need to be discussed)

Step Six: Focus on your sacral chakra see it as a orange ball, study it, notice if is is dark, or bright, does it have black spots? Then bring in the vibrations of the golden white light from above and the Golden Red light form the earth into your sacral chakra. Allow these Vibrations to clean and purify your sacral chakra until the energy flowing through your sacral chakra is turning bright golden orange. Then expand your sacral chakra. as far as you can. Allow and will your sacral chakra to expand. (If it does not expand easily then this may have further issues that need to be discussed and possible addressed.)

Step Seven: Repeat the above process for your Solar Plexus Chakra. Then your Heart Chakra, your Throat Chakra, your Third-eye or Brow Chakra, and finally for your Crown Chakra. Once all of your chakras are clean and expand as far as you can expand them continue to step Eight.

Step Eight: Focus all your consciousness on your heart chakra. and within your heart chakra. Once all of your consciousness is focused and resting within your heart chakra. Expand your Heart chakra to encompass all of your 6 other chakras. Even all that you are all the way to your true and highest self. Rest and let this be for as long as you can. Let your spirit and your chakras be balanced.

Step Nine: Know that all that has been done. Has been done for your highest and greatest good. The effects and changes this will bring are of your greatest good. The effects and changes being created and done will transition through your life with ease and no complications. Be at peace. Remember you are loved.

Step Ten: Bring your awareness slowly back to your body and your breathing. Take a few more moments and allow yourself to come back to full consciousness. Then go about your day and see how it has changed.

 

Come Ye Apart for Awhile — 5 week course

Hi Everyone!

We hope you can join us at Unity Church for Creative Living (www.unityinjax.com) for Come Ye Apart for Awhile. We are so excited about this upcoming course! It is an amazing opportunity to learn how to pray and build your practice of prayer. Prayer is one of the best ways to state your intention to your creator and manifest what your heart desires. If you don’t ask, how can you ever receive? Prayer will help deepen your relationship with your creator by opening up the lines of communication. Perhaps you aren’t quite sure how to pray or haven’t really prayed in a long time. Now is the time to learn to pray in a friendly and encouraging environment. If you haven’t been able to join us for any of our prior events, we hope you will join us at Unity!

Come Ye Apart For Awhile:
Four Ways to Pray
Taught by Jesus Christ
Facilitated by Reverend Judith Elia
James Dillett Freeman, the late great Poet Laureate of the Unity movement once wrote in an article entitled, “What is Unity?”, Unity is even more a practice than it is a teaching. “A practice of what?”, you might ask. “A practice of prayer”, is the answer. One word that describes Unity is prayer.
Unity began with prayer, Unity depends on prayer, and Unity grows by prayer.
The Unity way to God is through prayer and meditation.

Worship Wednesday Recap ~07.02.09

Yesterday was a wonderful Worship Wednesday!  I thought I would try it out on Twitter (#WorshipWednesday), since I used to do a Worship Wednesday once in a while when I blogged on Yahoo 360.  I had no idea that anyone else would be doing the same.  Just goes to show that God works in mysterious ways and that the collective consciousness is brimming with inspiration for everyone to tap into!  Below are some of the songs that I was inspired to share.  Worship isn’t just about going to church, listening to a pastor speak or a choir sing.  Worship is an ACTION VERB!  Worship is something you do! Whether it is on your own, in a small group or at a large church.  What you get out of worship is what you, personally, put into it.  Worship is an act of speaking your heart to God (however you invision God to be).  Worship is sharing your praise, devotion, gratitude and sorrows with God.  Worship can be joyful song and dance, mournful memories of loved ones, painful tears cried for hurts and surrendering to God’s will for your life.  There is no right or wrong way to worship, follow your heart and reach out to God.  Worship helps you to reconnect with God and develop a deeper intimate relationship with God.  Allow yourself the lifelong pleasure of walking with your infinite creator on a path that is uniquely your own.

Perhaps some of the below songs will apply to your life right now:

 Afraid to shine?  Others laugh at your dreams?  Listen to the Voice of Truth to remember who you are and how powerful you can be!

 >>Voice of Truth by Casting Crowns

 Need to feel Forgiven and Loved?  Feeling like you are racing fast to no where?  Child, you are forgiven and loved.

>>Forgiven and Loved by  Jimmy Needham 

Think you aren’t being heard by God?  Perhaps changes in your life are happening too slowly?  God is working on your life and changes happen in divine timing so it will happen when it is best for you and all involved.  If you are waiting for answers to prayers, why no worship while you’re waiting?

Walking with Grace 06.19.09

Walking with Grace

Alicia Crystalus

Sermon Given at the Spiritual Lighthouse Church

Jacksonville, FL

June 21, 2009

 

Imagine with me for a moment, that after having a tough and challenging day, you decide for to go for a long walk.  No matter how hard you tried, you couldn’t seem to relax your mind.  You replayed your day over and over in your head.  Then you were reminded by this small still voice in your head to bring Grace in to your walk.  Then immediately everything shifted. You could notice the beauty around you from the colors of the leaves, to the smell of the grass.

 You were reminded that walking with Grace is walking with – compassion, courage and determination.  Grace is a state of being; it is an acceptance that you can always be filled with grace. All you have to do is ask.  Grace is with you wherever you go. 

 Grace is feeling safe, secure and loved while you are on Earth.  Grace provides an inner strength and courage to face life’s challenges.  Grace helps you to hold onto faith and hope when all seems lost.  When you allow God’s grace to fill you, you will always feel God’s presence within you.  It is the seed of God’s spirit that thrives and shines when we are surrounded in the darkness.  That seed of grace can be nurtured to provide light to guide your way on even the darkest paths.  Grace helps to remind you that you are never alone and always loved.  I want you to imagine what it feels like to be loved and filled by grace. Feel that sense that you are never alone and always loved.

  Some crucial questions you may have about Grace:

 *What do you think grace means?

 *Some of you may be wondering, how de we receive grace? 

 *How do we activate grace in our lives? 

 *Do you think you have to work hard to receive grace?

  The answer to those questions is:

 Grace is not something you have to work for, no amount of good deeds can win you grace.  It is something that has already been set aside for you to receive.  Almost like a present waiting for you to accept the gift and unwrap it.  It is freely and easily given to you without any strings attached.  Accept God’s love and forgiveness for you and your life.  When you open your heart to God; God’s grace, hope and love flood in and fill you with more than you can ever imagine.

 

“May Grace and Peace be multiplied to you.”  1 Peter 1:2

 

When Peter wrote this he felt the bliss of grace and the blessings of peace.  He wanted all other people to feel this amazing miracle of grace.  He formed it was a greeting to friends.  What greater blessing can you wish someone than grace and peace?  Think about someone right now that needs the gift of grace, maybe it is you, or a dear beloved friend or family member.  Ask that they be blessed with Grace right now.

 Grace is a special gift from Heaven.  All other blessings of joy, peace, compassion and courage come from first receiving the gift of grace. 

 May grace be multiplied to you and all forms of grace received by you.  Grace is the empowerment of something brand new and holy within your heart.  This act of accepting grace allows your heart to be transformed to become God’s own heart.  Allow God’s own heart to beat within your chest.  Let every beat of your heart spread love, mercy and compassion as life blood through your body. Do that right now. Allow God’s own heart to beat within your chest.  Let every beat of your heart spread love, mercy and compassion as life blood through your body.  You can do this any time you need to.

 Grace does not make a superficial change.  It makes a sacred and lasting change that helps guide your soul through eternity.  It helps you to understand your divine purpose and provides an inner knowing that you are following the right path even when you do not know every step of the journey. 

 It awakens the image and divinity of God within your mind, body, heart and soul.  It awakens you to the divinity that has always been within you.  Grace helps you to realize that you have never been nor will you ever be separate or apart from God.  Grace allows you to remember and experience the true oneness with God on a deeper level. 

 The transformation of grace allows you to accept the precious gifts of compassion, courage and determination.  Not only for yourself but for all life on Earth.  These special gifts assist you to claim your life’s purpose and fulfill it with courage and confidence.  Grace helps you to maintain faith that you are strong enough and good enough just as you are to complete your divine mission.  Grace flows through every cell of your body, bringing understanding, light, tenderness and harmony every where it touches. 

 God’s Holy Spirit assists you by streaming grace into your heart every second of the day.  Each wave of grace touches your heart and plays it like a beautiful instrument.  The song that is sung in your heart plays in harmony with the heavenly choirs of angels.  Allow your heart to sing along with the heavens and let your life be in harmony with the Earth. 

 Think back to a time in your life when you didn’t feel you were enough or that you just couldn’t get through the next challenge in your life.  We all have those times.  I want to you think about a recent time when you felt that way.  Now I want you to imagine that you allowed the Holy Spirit to flow through you, breathing grace, hope and love back into you.  Did you feel like you were never alone when you walked through this situation?  Did you know that you could accept the calling of your divine purpose?  And that you were supported every step of the way by God’s grace?  Did you feel a boost to your spirit that helped pick you up off the ground so you can walk with grace again?  It is never too late to bring Grace into any situation. 

 While God plants the seed of grace into our hearts.  It is up to us to nurture, water and grow the seed into a glorious rose of love, mercy and compassion.  Every time we allow light into our lives, we bask that seed in sunlight to help it grow.  Every tear we cry and offer up to God to help us over the hurt and pain of life; waters that seed.  Every day that we meditate, offer praise or worship we nourish that seed.  So that one day that seed will blossom into a beautiful rose that has spread throughout our entire lives.  Take time each day to tend to the seeds planted in your heart.  You have a beautiful garden waiting for you. 

 God lays the foundation for our faith, but we construct the holy temple by walking with grace every day.  The Holy Spirit helps continue to work of grace in our hearts but we must be open to the ways the Holy Spirit moves in our lives.  Working to open our hearts, allows the Holy Spirit the opportunity to help tend our garden and temple with us.  We don’t have to walk this path alone.  Allow the help and support of heaven to be with you every step of the way.

A good metaphor for how we work with God and the Holy Spirit might be a sailboat floating on the ocean.  God provides the Grace Compass for our lifeboat.  We begin our journey of life and create a sail to help speed the trip along.  For us to truly sail the world – we need wind to fill up our sails so we don’t get stranded on the high seas of life, with no land or friends in sight to help us in the storms of life.  The Holy Spirit is that friend, providing wind to fill our sails.  Sometimes this wind is gentle, like a whispering breeze across our face so we know we are not alone.  Other times it is a gale force wind that helps push us into safety and blow the storms of life away.  Each blow of grace helps us to maintain our faith and moves us forward on our journeys through life. 

 Grace provides us a way to commune with God.  Grace raises us up to God’s level and allows us to be friends.  Commune with God on a daily basis to continue your walk with grace.  There are so many different ways to commune with God and it is a shame to miss them! 

 Here are 5 easy ways to commune with God on a daily basis.

 #1 – is to pray and offer words of praise for blessings received during the day. 

 # 2 – is to take God along as a passenger while you drive to work, He is an awesome listener and if you listen back God may even offer words of advice on how to have a peaceful day.  (No one will ever know. They will think you are talking on your cell phone.)

 # 3 – Another way would be to turn on uplifting music that stirs your soul and offers words of praise and worship to God.  

 #4 – My personal favorite is something I like to do a few minutes before I get out of bed in the morning.  I talk to God about what I want to accomplish that day and ask for His help every step of the way.   

 #5 – At night I will review my day with God.  It is an act of prayer that I offer up.  I review blessings I had received during the day.  Share my problems and moments of gratitude where I was able to see God helping me.  God is always present, every second of the day. Ask God for further guidance on walking with grace, mercy and love each day.   Allow yourself the chance to see the beauty in the world around you.  See where God was in your life each day.   No matter if you were less than perfect, there is nothing in life to be ashamed of for God loves you unconditionally and always loves you perfectly.  As you walk with grace, walk with your head held high for you are walking with God. 

 If you can’t find time for any of the ways I have shared, the single most spiritual thing you can do is to fall asleep without anger.  Fall asleep with peace and you will wake up with peace.  Trust that God will continue working on your life and filling you with love while you are asleep.  So any challenge that seems to big, give it up to God and allow Him to work on it while you sleep, trust that you do not have to worry while you sleep for your life is in the best hands possible.  Then when you wake up invite God to be with you every moment of the day.  You will be amazed at how your life changes by simply inviting God to be at your side. 

 Walking with grace makes life more exciting.  It makes life peaceful and extraordinary.  God is helping you create your life and filling each moment with magic, mystery and wonder.  Remember nothing is impossible with God. 

 If you would like to learn more about walking with grace or how to build an intimate relationship with God, please talk with me after the service.  Walking with Grace in the past has not always been easy for me.  It is something that I have learned to do.  I am committed to helping you experience God’s grace.  One of the ways, I would like to do that right now, is to share a song with you by Paul Baloche; it is Open the Eyes of My Heart.  Please join me in singing along.  After the song I will show you how you can truly accept God’s grace into your heart right now.

 I want each of you to close your eyes for a few minutes.  Allow your hearts to accept the love we have just been singing about.  Allow your hearts to soak it up.  If you have been moved by my words, please raise your hand.  Please keep your hands up if you want to accept God’s grace into your heart.  Just the act of raising your hand will show God that you are ready to open your heart for a deeper relationship. If you are 100% committed and ready to accept God’s grace, unconditional love and forgiveness into your heart, please raise both of your hands.  On your chair was placed a special prayer in an envelope.  Take that out now and say this prayer with me.  You may do so silently in your heart if that feels right to you. 

 Dear God, I want to share more of my life with you.  Please surround me in your love and fill my heart with your grace.  I open my heart and trust that you will plant the seed of grace within my heart.  I ask that your Holy Spirit guide me on how to tend to this precious gift of grace so it can mature into a beautiful rose of life.  I invite you into my heart and into my life.  I truly accept your unconditional love and forgiveness and can’t wait to walk with grace with you for the rest of my life.  Amen.

 Thank you for allowing me to share my walk with grace with you.  I appreciate each and every one of you and am thankful that you shared your hearts with me.  May you be surrounded in love, joy and peace! And remember, to please see me if you have any questions or give me a call.  I am here to help bring grace into your life.

 

Here Comes the Sun

 

Here Comes the Sun

~ Alicia Erchul

Let the sun shine and bathe you in its warmth.

Let the golden rays wash over you and

help bring you some joy to fill your spirit.

As you take in the sunshine, let your heart overflow with happiness

and peace that you haven’t felt in a while.

As your heart warms from the sun,

feel your body becoming drenched in love.

Let the love flow out from your heart

and connect with the world around you.

Feel a ray of love shoot out from your heart and

strengthen your connection with God.

Know that you are part of this beautiful universe.

You are connected to everywhere the sun’s light touches.

Let yourself bask in the glow of the sun,

enveloping you in a bubble of golden light and divine love.

You are part of the holy and sacred world that God has created

and so beautiful just as you are.

Be blessed today!

Worship Wednesday 04.29.09

Today, I am featuring a song by John Waller called Worship While I’m Waiting.  It became a favorite of mine when I saw a prescreening of Fireproof the Movie.  Right now, it seems to fit in with my life on a great level with the move to Florida and starting up our new life.  While I may want things to move faster and not have a lot of patience, I can step back and worship God while I am waiting and continue to serve Him until the divine timing is right.  Everything happens in the exact time and moment it is meant to and there is no pushing time forward or holding time back.  This song helps me to remember that and regain a center of peace, faith and patience that all will be well. 

With the move to Florida, it seems like each step is given one at a time.  In the past I lacked the faith to move forward without knowing the end result and each step in the journey.  Right now it is being stressed to me that it is important to have faith and fulfill each step as it comes without worrying what the next step is or what the end result will be.  This current journey has been amazing in the various ways that God is teaching and raising me up higher and higher, in ways I had never knew possible.  Releasing the control to God to create the perfect outcome and trusting that I will hear and follow the divine guidance provided is difficult.  Sometimes it feels like it would be so much easier to try to force things to happen on my timeline but then I remember that when I do that it is never has the result that I wanted to is of my highest good. 

Let go of the fear of releasing control of your journey to God.  You co-create your life with God, let the infinite creator remove the stumbling blocks from your journey and reveal the deeper meaning of where you are going so you can achieve a higher purpose for your life.  Your life has meaning, let yourself embrace it with both hands, heart and soul.  May God bless your journey and lead you to grow in love, joy and wisdom.

Worship While I’m Waiting by John Waller

 

Refresh Your Patience

Refresh your supply of patience, peace, hope, love and joy each morning! Don’t leave home on empty!  Be brave and use your voice, create your life by letting others in on the amazing secrets and ideas in your heart!

Each morning before you step out into the world, lay in bed and visualize your heart and body being filled to overflowing with the fuel that can fill your soul.  The fuel that is rich in patience, peace, hope, love, joy and wonder that you are alive and able to live another day.  Feel yourself surrounded in love and overflowing with more than enough love and care for anyone you come in contact with that day.  Each day is a brand new day to be filled with all that your soul needs, you just need to tap into it and allow yourself to be refilled.  If you are having trouble receiving love or other soulful food; reach out to others and hug them, walk through a beautiful park or play with some puppies.  Other ways to refill your spiritual gas tank are to pray, meditate or simply sit in silence.  If you need help, please feel free to contact me or fill out a prayer and healing request. 

Don’t leave home on empty in the morning, tap into the unlimited source of love, patience and peace!
