Tales from the road to awakening

Preparation for Mayan Storm!

Okay, so there are now officially 8 weeks until I leave for the HBI event Mayan Storm in Cancun, Mexico. Not only am I extremely excited about meeting other white cells (friends I’ve already made and those I am yet to make), I have also put my name down for a personal 1 on 1 with Eric.

To ensure I get the most out of Mexico, I have put together a ‘routine’ with Aaron, that we will both use to try to get in the best ‘shape’ dimensionally as we can. I will also be running an extended physical fitness plan along with this, to be in the best physical shape that I can.

I will attempt to make daily entries here regarding my progress.

The HBI routine is as follows:
- 1 hour 30 mins meditation each day

- 1 HG session per week

- 5 x Energy Movements session per week (15-25 mins)

- Be aware of prana and be as conscious as possible through the day

In the interest of keeping this blog to it’s original purpose, I wont be focusing on documenting my physical fitness goals, or my school related goals (which at this moment is just to do the bloody assignment I’ve been putting off that’s due on monday, lol) and progress here..

Ooo. And I also need to come up with some questions for Eric that must be about spiritual matters, and not psychic type things.

Progress so far today -
138 mins meditation.

  • Clearing the Garden

    There are way too many ‘weeds’ in the garden of my consciousness.

    It is time to think about the things I spend my time on, and the impact they have on my goals, instead of just allowing my ‘I’s to rule my life with every fleeting whim they have.

    ‘Just watch one show .. then meditate / study / whatever.’

    ‘Plenty of time. Watch another show.’

    ‘OK, no more tv. How about you read forums for a bit?’

    ‘I know we’re not hungry, but I feel like eating something; then we’ll study!’

    ‘Listen to me today, you can always drop me tomorrow – yeah! that’s a good idea, if you let me run the show – just for today, it will be easier to get rid of me tomorrow!’

    As I write these out, I can see that they make absolutely no sense. Why would allowing my I’s to run the show today make it easier for me to move passed them tomorrow? The truth is that it wont – it will make it harder as there will be a precedent set, a pattern that can be referenced everytime a similar situation comes up in the future. Each time the pattern is re-enforced, it gathers strength, and requires more awareness to disconnect from.

    The reason I continue to listen to these ‘I’s is that part me still identifies with them. It believes that ‘I’ want to do these things. That’s why they’re called ‘I’s I guess.

    Time to get rid of some of these ‘weeds’.

  • Welcome

    This blog has been created primarily as a record of my spiritual journey with Higher Balance ( http://www.higherbalance.com ) .

    I guess you could say I’ve been a seeker for most of my life. Like many people, I’ve felt a void inside me that I’ve tried to fill with everything from drugs and alcohol; to video games and study; and even the search for the ever elusive, idealised partner who we imagine will somehow complete us.

    Through using the foundation meditation, which is one of the core teachings of Higher Balance, I have touched on that connection to something greater that I have been searching for my whole life.

    Through this blog I will share my experiences and thoughts, as much for myself as anyone else.
