Care of the Soul by Janet Lynas, Ph.D., N.H.D.

We care for our physical health, most of us pay attention to our mental health, and all of us care for our emotional wellbeing. Care also includes one’s children, family, so many other things in life such as our home and property.

But, do you care for your soul? How does one care for their soul?

What is the soul?

The soul is the spiritual or immaterial part of a human being or animal, that is regarded as immortal.

Also, the soul is the subject of human consciousness and freedom. Soul and body together form one unique human creation. According to the Bible, each human soul is individual and immortal, and created by God. The soul does not die with the body, but is separated at death.

There is a difference between the soul and the spirit. The soul is immortal, but the spirit is not. Your soul is who you really are, beyond the physical encasement of the body. The spirit is a mediator between body and soul. Everyone’s soul has to do with the emotional aspect and with the individual life itself.  While the spirit is the essence or force that allows the body to function.

Our soul is made of an extremely high vibrational energy coming from the spiritual universe. The soul is invisible, it cannot be seen, weighed or measured in any physical sense. The soul is thought to be associated with the heart charka.

Caring for the Soul

Caring for the soul is more intimate, deep and genuine  than care for day to day activities. When your soul is moved, you feel both love and anger. You will have strong desires and at times even stronger fears.

Throughout a lifetime, one may discovery that the needs of the soul can change and that life becomes difficult. What once nourished your soul, now has become a burden that you now feel the need to escape. To nurture your life is to reach out beyond the limits you have imposed on yourself.

In caring for the soul, we have to learn who we are by facing our shadow side and embracing all aspects of who we truly are. You learn to work with what is, rather than what you wish things to be.

To care for the soul means to open-up to our humanness and to show compassion to ourselves. We have to step out of the humdrum task of daily activities and begin to explore the psyche. Exploration of the psyche is both exciting and scary. Moving beyond the mindlessness of everyday life and into the realm of the soul is indeed the first step into fully living life.

Be brave, learn all you can about who you are, for this is part of the lessons we are to learn in this lifetime.  Reach-out, take hold of your humanness, grow past the boundaries you have built around yourself. Set your soul free! In doing so, you have taken the first step towards caring for the soul.

 

 

Creation Story Part 2 by Janet Lynas, Ph.D., N.H.D.

In part one we talked about Adam and Eve’s creation, choices they had, and fall from grace. Today in part 2 we are looking at a different perspective all together. I think outside of the box. As a result, I’m not restricted in my thinking. I do my own thinking. Do you?

My mother used to tell me, “God gave you a brain, use it!” However, using my brain often gets me into trouble. I am one of ‘those’ people who think outside of the box. Thinking outside of the box is often viewed as being a ‘little off’. That’s ok. I’m don’t worry about what other people think of me. Are you ready to begin this journey on thinking outside of the box?

In the beginning

Spirit looked over the newly formed creation of planet Earth. Many creatures roamed over the earth and flew in the skies above. Yet there seemed to be something missing…

“Let us make a man in our own image.” Interesting choice of words, don’t you think? Creator Source made man.

“It’s not good for man to be alone.” Source put man to sleep. A rib is removed to create woman. (First anesthesia and surgery preformed.) Man and woman are intelligent beings. They have free will.

Fall from intimacy

Man and woman have an intimate relationship with I AM THAT I AM. Conversations are intimately deep and meaningful. Humankind and God are one in the same. As you recall, mankind is created in the likeness of Creator God. Man and woman having deep knowledge of ALL THAT THERE IS, knows what it’s like to be Spirit Most High. After all, God is connected spiritually with Adam and Eve.

Suppose just for a moment that Adam and Eve chose to experience what it would be like to grow and expand on their own. This is where eating from the Tree of Knowledge comes in.

Rather than living in paradise, the couple decided to experience life from a new reality. Hence, the experiment of life without the knowledge of Yahweh begins. Adam and Eve are expelled from the garden.

The veil is raised.

Finding the way back home

Adam and Eve find themselves in a new reality. Forgotten is the knowledge of being intimate with God. There is a veil blocking their memory of being in spiritual connection with Source. Faced with separation from Father God makes life difficult. In contrast, there now is no intimacy with God. Something is missing, but what? Furthermore, one now has to learn how to care for themself.

Adam and Eve are now looking outside of themselves for Spirit. God is up in heaven or on some other plain of existence. Because they are looking outside of themselves for God, there is a sense of something missing, but what?

Religion teaches us that Father lives in heaven. Heaven is a far off place. Mankind is separated from Yahweh. How do we find our way back home? Where and what is home?

Remembering

Rather than looking on the outside for God, turn your attention to what’s inside of you. What do you mean? Pay attention to the soft voice that talks to you during quiet moments. Also, listen to your ‘gut’ feeling. Trust your intuition.

Think back to all those times when you said to yourself, “I should have trusted my gut!” So, where do you think your gut feeling comes from? Who is that small quiet voice speaking to you?

Meditating is the fastest way to get in touch with your feelings and to learn to listen to the voice inside of you. As a result of meditation, you soon learn to trust the word deep within you. Likewise, as you learn to trust the intuition instructing you, you will begin communicating with God who is in you.

Look inside to see Source

While one meditates, you become in-tune with the seed of Spirit that is with you at all times. Listen with your heart, not with the mind. God once said, “Be still and know that I am God.”

You’re never alone. Being away from Spirit is the first lie. The veil is in place making it difficult for us to remember the connection with Source.

Just for a moment, close your eyes, focus on your breathe. Breath in deeply. Release the breathe slowly. Feel you body relaxing. Also, the more relaxed you are, the easier it is to listen to the inner knowing within you.

As a result, the voice within will speak gently to you. Listen with your heart and trust that what is being spoken is the truth. How do I know if this voice is God’s? First of all, Source speaks from love. Hence, your connection with Love gives you a sense of peace.

As you sit quietly, you will soon see a tiny light activate in the center of your core. So, as this light glows brighter, the warmth of love will fill you entirely. The veil is coming down. You remember once again what it’s like to be one with Spirit.

See the truth

The truth is, God is not in heaven. Nor is He somewhere out in the universe. God is and has always been within you. Also, feel the love that comes from this source within. As a result, this love spreads and grows filling us from the bottom of our feet to the top of our head.

This love inside is God. Stand centered in the God space. Align yourself with this energy. By aligning yourself with God within, you have once again reignited the spark of recognition between you and God.

Know that standing in this energy of love, has ripped down the veil of deception. You now remember, “I’m one with Creator!” Therefore, you know the truth! Finally the truth has set you free!
