JUNE 2013

AWAKEN TO BE FREE

...Take this moment now. Imagine. Awaken to a brand new day that's teaming with life all around you. Inside you feel excited, full of joy, empowered, and passionate to receive your miracle gift of life today and what today has to offer. You are in total, complete peace and tranquility. You're ready and alive, to embraced and cherish every fresh, new, mystical and magic moment, just for the sheer joy that it gives you.

 

...The truth is we were born to experience this every moment, of everyday. Since everything is energy, that is our soul is energy, the divine is energy, love is energy, hate is an energy, fear is an energy. Since everything is energy, where we vibrate determines our experience. The rate we vibrate is our resonance or the degree that we are allowing ourselves to love ourselves informs our reality.

 

...Our emotions are energies in motion, and it’s our unresolved emotional content that is taking room inside us and blocking our ability to receive our birthright and who we truly are. And it’s that unresolved content that is creating that unconscious content. The good news, is, we can tap into this hidden dimension and leverage it to "awaken us to be free" and bring increase in every area of our lives because we were born to experience that vibrational increase, and to be able to tap into our intuition and greater guidance.

 

...For it's the accumulation of life's events, it’s the accumulation of fear; it’s the accumulation of sadness, the anger, and the fear that is inhibiting you from glowing and shining. And, it’s inhibiting you from tapping into your intuition and your greater guidance.

 

...At Awaken To Be Free, we're here to help you leverage your unlimited potential, so that you can be happy, healthy, and whole, every moment of everyday, and to fully embrace your gifts and receive your miracles that life offers you.

 

This is our highest level of Be The Medicine - the path to ultimate freedom, love and joy!

We are currently creating a pathway and framework for you to access in many ways.

Stay tuned to retreats, sessions and internet events and more coming soon.

Join us next month for a Vision Quest Mitote. Details below.

 

Enjoy this gorgeous month of June.

Blessings of delight, Janet StraightArrow

Janet’s StraightArrow approach is loving and keen as it cuts through the BS and helps you to heal. Janet is able to see each person as they are and kindly, lovingly move him or her into their truth. Thank You Janet, I love you.”

WHAT IS A MITOTE?

The Mitote Ceremony is a Way to challenge Limiting Beliefs of Possibility

The mitote ceremony is a sacred ritual in dreaming performed through the night. It has been passed down through the various Toltec lineages as a means to transform ones personal dream. It impacts the participant on multiple dimensions.

The Intent of the Mitote
There are multiple intents woven together in this ritual designed to push and pull an individual along their transformation.

The first intent of the mitote ceremony is to become lucid in the dream state.
Each time we go to sleep, the mind passes from the waking dream to the sleeping dream. Each time that the mind passes through this dimension of dreaming, we have an opportunity to become aware that the mind is dreaming. This is often referred to as lucid dreaming. When we become aware that the mind is dreaming, we can take control of the dream. We can start to change and influence the dream. In this way the dreamer can practice changing the dream, instead of the dreamer reacting to the dream. Mastery of this aspect of dreaming has many benefits. It especially has benefits in the waking world of our daily life.

One of the easiest ways to become aware that we are dreaming is in the moment that the body falls asleep and the mind continues to dream. We can become aware in other ways, but this is one of the easiest.

During the mitote, there are multiple opportunities to take advantage of this window as we wake periodically during the night and then lay down to sleep again. The mastery of this requires a high degree of awareness.

The second intent is the breaking of patterns and routines.
Most of our actions, thoughts, and emotional responses are patterned routines. These patterns are programs that keep us repeating the same dream. We could say that our actions in this state are unconscious. We do not exercise our freewill in choosing our actions in cases where we are in a patterned reaction. This is the same behavior we often experience in a dream where things are just happening and we are just reacting. We find ourselves just doing things in the dream in reaction, and not consciously choosing an action. We could say that in this experience we are not exercising our freewill. In that place we do not even see a choice. To make a choice, one must first see a choice.

This is similar in the waking dream when we are just reacting or behaving in a patterned routine. For example, did we choose the path that we drove to work. Or, did we just take the same route that we usually take. Our personal power is invested in the these patterned routines. In habits, we lose our opportunity for choice. By breaking the routine we can recover the personal power that we have invested in it. When we have recovered the personal power, we do not have to react. The routine no longer dictates our behavior, and instead we can choose.

One of the fastest ways to recover this personal power is to break up the patterns that routinely run our life. One of the biggest of these is the habit of sleep. We have a lot of agreements about sleep. We believe them but they are not necessarily true. We can change them. When we change them, we can recover the investment of our personal power in that belief. In the mitote, we consciously intend to break up the sleep pattern and recover the power we have put in agreements about sleep.

When you practice this aspect in the mitote you can become much more aware of other places where our personal power is invested in routines that don’t serve ourselves or others. Once you realize that you can break up the patterns around sleep, it gives us more confidence and personal power to break other patterns in our life that we want to change.

The third intent is the energetic work of an experienced guide in the dream state.
We are a multidimensional being. We perceive on many dimensions. However, from the time we were very young the world trained our attention to focus on a limited number of these dimensions. In the dream state our awareness is still working to evolve whether we are conscious of our dreams or not. During a mitote an experienced guide can work with individuals in the dream state towards this transformation. This evolution happens in realms that we are often not consciously aware of.

The general format of the mitote ceremony:
The mitote is done with a group and should be lead by an experienced guide. Each one will take on its individual characteristics but follows a similar outline. If possible, and convenient, the group gathers for a ceremony at sunset to connect themselves with the light of the sun. Afterwards, the group will gather to perform the dreaming ceremony.

The group will generally break up into smaller groups which will be assigned a sequential order. The first group will hold the energy for the others through meditation and/or chanting, generally in the center of the room. The rest of the groups will lay down to dream and sleep. At intervals through out the night, the smaller group will wake the next group. Each group will take a turn meditating and consciously holding the larger group intent. This continues until sunrise. written by Gary van Warmerdam

 

Awakening Evolution Enjoy The Journey

Hello and welcome to new life.

Everyone is changing and rearranging themselves in new ways on all levels. Its exciting and uncertain and we have a choice to make it easy or hard. I have always chosen to find the flow, even when there was no path laid before me.

My mission is to midwife people as they rebirth themselves into their original nature and it is an honor to assist people from all walks of life awaken into a place that is not only spiritual but also logical, simple and clear. 

We have no choice when our soul shakes us awake. Physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually we are all moving into a new yet Ancient paradigm of truth, love and perfection. Life has purpose and meaning and it is exciting to understand 

Baby steps to giant steps occur on their own and need support from all of us. Compassion, love and understanding are key. Joy is the journey as we allow us to be free to be.

New structures are being built here to assist everyone from children to adults move into this new place with grace and ease. Internet, webinars, retreats in sacred places and books are being designed and written for web and paper. I love to hold my books.

I am still building my team of support and enjoying colaboration and creation.

Enjoy a Summer of Delights.

Blessings and Grace, Janet StraightArrow


Quotes To Ponder 

" Live from the inside out for a strong core. One of the main causes of dis-ease and pain is our focus on others, what they think, want, or expect from us, instead of listening, honoring and considering ourselves. Nurturing, nourishing, listening to, and caring about us, allows disease, depression and pain to disappear. Make this your daily exercise." Janet StraightArrow Be The Medicine

 

"Be free to be you. You have direct knowledge about you and life on all levels. Truth appears gentle, strong and clear. Illusions are full of emotion, excuses and reasons. Listen for your true voice, and follow it. It is the most intelligent thing you can do and be." Janet StraightArrow Awaken To Be Free

 

"We transform the world by bringing love with us wherever we go. Be Love." Janet StraightArrow Be The Medicine
