Music Uplifts & Transforms

Music is a big part of my personal spiritual practice.  It has the power to lift me energetically, and is an essential tool in manifestation work.  Why? 

Because the key to manifestation is not the person place or thing being desired, the key to manifestation is whether our personal spiritual energy is in alignment with that which we desire. 

For example, lets pretend my desire is to manifest an iphone.  Intellectually I may feel like I deserve an iphone.  I've placed a picture of one in my vision board, I've prayed to the divine for help to receive one, and I am excited at the thought of having one in my life. These are all fantastic starting points for manifestation, and should be commended.  The steps where fellow humans (myself included) tend to get caught up is where our energetic vibration meets our desire.

1) A common misconception about manifesting

anything in our lives is that anything we want is somehow a reward for good behavior, and if we don't have something that we currently want, we believe we are being punished or that we somehow do not deserve our desire.

2) Another common misconception of manifestation s timing. 

When we really want something, we often want it right now!  But in spiritual truth, we might not be prepared to hold our desire just yet. 

Using the iphone as an example,  a person may really desire to have one, but deep down they feel the cost of the phone and the monthly bill do not match up with the desire.  This may create guilt, or a feeling of unworthiness which in turn blocks the manifestation.  off

So where does music fit into all this?  Just like we eat healthy foods to fuel our bodies, I believe every influence has cause and effect in our lives.  Just like I watch what I feed my body, I also keep a close eye on the music I listen too, the movies and television I watch, and the books I read. Since I was a child, I've always had a special connection to music,  I love it.  There was once a time where I listened to pretty much everything.  Not anymore, because not all music makes me feel good.  In fact,  some music can do quite the opposite.  When manifesting anything, feeling good about your desire is integral.  This brings me to the crux of this blog post.  It is so important to make conscious choices in life, and for me, this includes the music I listen to.  I no longer choose to listen to listen to music that makes me sad. If something makes me sad or unhappy , I switch it off.

  Carrie Underwood I would like to take a moment and share with you a little about one of several female vocalists who have been inspiring to me.  I've always enjoyed a vast variety of music, but not really anything in the Country Gene re until Carrie Underwood arrived to country music. She hit the music world as the winner of a signing contest, and has since been awarded every honour in Country and pop music. She has transcended the country mold, making country sound accessible to people who wouldn't otherwise listen to country (including me) This young lady is poised, and hasn't let fame interfere with her authentic truth.  She has polished her song writing skill and has co-written a plethora of her own material.  Singing live and telling genuine stories abut life, and the human spirit remain at the forefront of her music.

With lyrics like "Sometimes that mountain you've been climbing is just a grain of sand – what you've been "out there" searching for forever, is in your hand." "This is my Temporary home, its not where I belong windows and rooms that I'm passing through – this is just a stop, on the way to where I'm going.  I'm not afraid because I know this is my temporary home", "I will see you again, this is not where it ends I will carry you with me until I see you again. "Life is like a ride on a party bus, turn the radio up and sing along with it."turn off the static on the TV. Wish you could see yourself the way I do. Nobody ever told you Nobody ever told you. You shine like a diamond Glitter like gold And you need to know What nobody ever told you."

Carrie is completely authentic, and watching her passion and joy as she sings brings me joy.  Yes, she's a "celebrity", but she's real and her lyrics speak to my spirit.  Choosing music to listen to that takes you to that place of joy and lifts you up. This  is so important to accompany your manifestation work.
