Do you wake up some days feeling like you’re getting out of the wrong side of the bed?
In full transparency, I can create some pretty scary things and batshit ideas all in my own little head. In spite of a thirty-year spiritual practice, I can fall off the wagon and hit the ground hard.
However, when I take this unexpected spiral down into the depths of my own craziness, I have some great tools for a quick recovery. One of my favorites is “A Course in Miracles”. I’m not the only one that loves it. Most of your favorite NYT bestselling authors like Gabby Bernstein, Danielle Laporte, and Marianne Williamson frequently refer to A Course in Miracles.
This channeled text which has become a frequent buzz word today is one of the very first to have been a divine download and transcribed from 1965-1972. I started reading the course in 1990. The book (usually navy blue) has the text and a daily lesson. It’s uncanny how the lessons will be so applicable for the struggles you may be experiencing.
The primary teaching of the book is nothing real can be threatened. “Nothing unreal exists. Herein lies the peace of God.” If you are not at peace, you must be thinking wrongly. You have the power to change your thoughts, especially when you come from love and not the fear that the ego creates. When you don’t feel good-you’re not connected to love!
I often talk about that nasty little voice in your head that is always condemning everyone and everything. The voice that continually tells you what you should do. That is your ego. I know you’ve heard it and if you’re like me, probably way too much. These negative thoughts are what create your reality. So, do you want to live in a shit storm or step into a life of love and peace?
I have had several guests on Awakening Divine Wildness this year that have been teachers of this course because I think it is so important to your personal development. You keep thinking that people and the things around you need to change when actually it is your thoughts that need to. Let go of the judgment of others and learn to forgive yourself as well as others. Fear is something you create and think up, love is your divine essence. You, my little pumpkin are pure love. That is the key to what’s real and unreal.
The more you can stay connected to love, the more grace and abundance you will have!
My guest, Dr. Dana Marrocco has been a teacher of A Course in Miracles for many years. She has taken some of the most powerful lessons from her psychology teachings and the course to create her wonderful book, The Top Ten Lies We Tell Ourselves. We discuss three of the 10 lies in this episode of Awakening Divine Wildness. You can reach Dana at www.drdanamarrocco.com
Lesson 10 – The need to be right. Would you rather be right or be happy?
Lesson 4 – People who can hold onto a grudge. Why do you define yourself by your grievances?
Lesson 3 – Reacting out of fear. You have two teachers you can listen to – Fear or Love.
