Stress has manifested itself as disease, lack, and a feeling of hopelessness when it comes to living in a world that is spiraling out of control.
Centuries of violence, overt materialism, male domination, and lack of self-responsibility has us on the brink of a life filled with pain and unhappiness and, on a larger scale, a societal tipping point. Capitalism, which was once a sacred system founded on the ideas of integrity and freedom has collapsed into a survival of the fittest mentality that has many feeling lost and without support.
If you feel this tidal wave of change you are one step ahead. But once you are aware it's time to take responsiblity to make the changes that you would like to see and to restore balance to an out of whack world. It is now time to take your head out of the sand and WAKE UP!

When you watch the news and read the newspaper, do you feel the muscles in your body tighten? Do you wonder… How will things be next year? Which way will we go? Will I be strong enough to survive?
Universal Oneness / Stress Relief Meditation
It is entirely up to the individual. It all begins with understanding and then embracing Universal Oneness and the common thread of source energy which flows through everything and everybody.
If you are having a hard time grasping the concept of oneness, try this stress relief meditation:
Close your eyes throughout the day when you are in a safe place. And ponder this: we are all one, and with this acknowledgment there becomes no place for domination, violence, and overt materialism lacking integrity.
We must further contemplate that moving in a new positive evolutionary direction will always be up to us individually and will require quite a bit of self-discipline. Visualize this happening, feel how good this makes you feel, recognize the stress leaving your body, and hang on to this feeling so that it is close to you at all times.

Start Your Journey
We are all on our own unique path through life the basis of which must be love and integrity. What I remembered several years ago on the hillside of Mt. Kilimanjaro was that the glue holding the consciousness of Universal Oneness together was LOVE itself!
With love of ourselves and unconditional love of others there is no place for fear, violence, or a need to dominate another. In this state of being there is no room for stress - only a relaxed openness that allows for a steady stream of pure positive energy.

Dealing With Duality
The duality of our human experience is that while we are simultaneously on our unique individual path we are also connected to everybody and everything. And so when we experience stress and interact throughout the day we spread that stress to others like a virus.

So how do we follow our life’s path, learn our lessons, and still be sure out actions are connected with Universal Spirit, so that we do not infect others with our stressful and negative vibrations? This is where it becomes imperative to learn how to access our inner spiritual self by opening our portals, and learning to receive and trust our messages.
Achieving Balance
We get started by balancing our male and female energies. For men it generally means becoming better listeners, increasing sensitivity, and working on being more intuitive. For women, it may require being bolder, louder, more physical, and even less loyal. We are made up of both male and female energies and the more balanced we become, the more we open our portals to our spirit guides.

Next we need to clear our mind and emotions of as much negativity and fear as possible and the best way here is to start a regular practice of meditation. A regular practice means daily even if only a short time each day, and the initial goal is to clear our minds completely of thought.
More on the Power of Meditation
Breathing, chanting and visualization exercises are very valuable here. As we clear our minds of cluttered unwanted thoughts and balance our male/female energies we will find our portals opening to Universal spirit filled with love and lack of judgment. The beauty of going inward is we have the power to create the kind of world we desire in an instant. Simply use your imagination to see people living in a world where stress and negativity do not exist.

Giving is Getting
One of the best ways to feel good instantly is to do something kind for another person, an animal or the planet. This is also known as stress relief through charity. Why not practice developing this charitable nature in your meditations. It's easy and freeing to give in the loving divine inner world - it's as natural as breathing.
And with practice this charitable nature will naturally transfer into your material, day-to-day, outside world. When we live our lives from this starting point we will be able to receive the timeless messages from the ‘Ancient Ones’ which are in perfect alignment with our individual soul’s purpose and advancement.
