Consciousness: Shift Your Self-Awareness To All That Is

Many years ago there was a popular song called "Dust in the Wind" by a band called Kansas. It is a very beautiful song, with a very tragic message that has reverberated through time for centuries on end.

The message is that we are all just hopeless, helpless little specks that are being blown about, with little say or authority over what happens to us. As much as I enjoy that song, I have to say, loud and clear, that the message is absolutely false.

You have the say and authority to control what happens to you, and in greater measure than you have ever imagined. The way that you can step into the role of authority that you have over your own existence is to take steps toward a radical consciousness shift - changing your entire point of view.

The Problem

Here is where most people get into trouble. Instead of realizing that they are infinite, truly All That Is or Could Ever Be, they see themselves as Joe Schmoe... just a salesman, and a poor one at that.... just an overweight guy with few friends... just someone that is a victim of circumstance.

Well, I'm here to tell you that you are much more than that, my friend.

You have the choice to view yourself as "just this, or just that" for your entire journey here on the planet earth, but that is a poor use of the time you've been given. Instead, learn to take the leap of a consciousness shift, and see yourself for what you are - limitless, powerful and in control.

Overcoming the Problem

Now that you know the truth of who you really are (whether you believe it or not, it is true), it's time to take ownership of that truth.

From this point forward instead of being trapped by your name, your family history, your diseases or whatever else is holding you back, see yourself as the powerful All That Is and Ever Could Be. And you are this, but simply experiencing life as "just this, or just that."

Do you see the power of shifting your point of view?

Instead of being forced to live out a script that you don't agree with, this truth empowers you to take control and start living like you ought to. You're entitled to this, as an Infinite Consciousness, so step up to the plate and start living this life according to your own script.

I hope you see by now that this isn't merely positive thinking or hyping yourself up into a frenzied state of denial. This is making a conscious decision to live up to your limitless potential. To not be bound by circumstances or toxic thinking.

You have the power inside of you, and trust me, it is just itching to be released. Once you start the first steps of this consciousness shift, you'll be on a ride that you won't soon forget. Living life as the adventure that it was meant to be; growing wiser and stronger day by day.

Hey, it's either that or continuing life in a limited, helpless state of being. So which one will you choose?

Subconscious and Conscious Mind

The subconscious conscious mind are states of consciousness where in terms of personal development and self-awareness, knowledge of their use is used as a means for attainment of higher states of consciousness and mind awareness development. The conscious and subconscious are also terms coined to represent aspects of the mind and knowledge related to human awareness that has to do with living, meaning and how we view life.

The subconscious for example gives meaning through the language of symbols and images. Conceptual thinking, creative ideas, beliefs and abstract forms of thinking are the types of expressions found in the subconscious. It also holds the memory of our life experiences and patterns of genetic behavior related to our upbringing and conditioning.

The subconscious holds the key to greater awareness of mind in terms of thoughts and feelings, however meaning and information from them is really of no use unless it is expressed consciously and with awareness for whatever good reason. Subconscious expressions that pass through to the conscious mind are filtered by the process of logic and reason which makes them more practical and better understood in their expression. Otherwise there would be no sense or meaning to what we do or say or relate to or about.

On the other hand the conscious part of the mind is what gives expression to our waking state and awareness. Our sensory experiences supply information from the outside world that is then assimilated by our conscious thought processes and feelings. Which in turn are sent to the subconscious where they are re-formulated into beliefs, desires and values which in turn are drawn upon by the conscious mind in the form of experiences which make interpretation of our life what it is and how we see it. All the information related to our life experiences is stored in the subconscious as memory.

The conscious mind on its own also plays a part in the re- interpretation of some aspects of the subconscious such as the meaning of symbols, related to the experiences and information it interprets from outside of its own conscious awareness or if you prefer from outside of ones state of self-awareness. However when it comes to interpretation of higher levels of awareness, it relies on assistance from the minds higher intelligence networks such as the intuitive and soul and spiritual aspects of consciousness whose origins are found in the higher states of the minds deeper patterns of subconscious awareness.

The subconscious conscious mind when used in conjunction with self-awareness are the three key aspects of mind used to attain to higher states of consciousness. They also work together to describe the overall quality, life and purpose of human and individual consciousness as major components of consciousness as a whole. They refer to aspects of the mind in terms of our human nature and understanding about what life is and also who and what we are, as well as our relationship to being a part of the universal life force itself.

Higher awareness

The meanings given here in this article on subconscious conscious, refers to higher awareness states as those which fit in reference to the minds intelligence and expressions of individual soul and spiritual consciousness. In a larger sense states of individual higher awareness are connected to consciousness of universal and divine states of being which form the cosmic streams of subconscious conscious activities of which the planes of the human stream of consciousness is but only a segment of.

First off it becomes necessary to think in terms that everything created is fundamentally made out of electromagnetic forces and particles of matter in varying degrees of density. That also includes thoughts, feelings and any state of consciousness regardless of what state it is.

The mind of reason can be applied to anything and made to make sense of it, if it is used rightly and in conjunction with the subconscious mind awareness and higher conscious aware states. When a person is conscious and aware at the time of something happening in their subconscious it becomes possible to see not only how the subconscious patterns of their behavior work, but also how they work from a position of mental detachment, in which the self-awareness has been elevated to a higher mode of consciousness expression which supports enough reason for the validity of those higher states.

When the goal in a technique of development in higher mind awareness includes a conscious interpretation of the activities of the subconscious forces, for clarity's sake the mind calls upon higher awareness energies such as those that are more purified and strengthened by use of the power of the will and intelligence which stem from higher perceptions of the intelligence of mind.

It's through a person's consciousness and their higher expression of it, with its subsequent subconscious expression that conscious choices are made while in those states about their direction in life and their soul purpose and the meaning of it. These subtle and important choices may go unnoticed by the normal waking consciousness of the everyday awareness of mind. Because they are states of awareness made by the higher self and where it may not necessarily be consciously recognized by the normal waking conscious mind, however they still exist nonetheless as a form of higher guidance posited in the persons aura in the form of electromagnetic states of intelligent consciousness to which the higher states of mental awareness are more refined and cultivated.

To some they may be totally unconscious of these states, while to others they may be termed subconscious while yet again to others theses states of higher mind awareness are conscious states of the subconscious whose levels are of a frequency and rate of vibration, where the range in awareness is of a different sense or quality of consciousness but is still perceived consciously, however only by the mind of soul and its senses. The difference being they are simply termed subconscious because they refer to what's hidden from the conscious mind and the physical world as it appears.

In addition, conscious choices made while in higher states of awareness may not be totally recognized or in fact clearly understood at a later date when only in a conscious waking state by a person unless they happen to already have a good working knowledge of how metaphysical laws and principles work. Also when at the time the self-awareness is not particularly focussed on any subconscious activities related to higher states of consciousness. When that is the case quite often any experiences experienced while in a higher state of consciousness become relegated to the minds awareness as an unconscious part of the subconscious--- or at least until a bridge of consciousness has been created by the soul and they are ready to be recognized by it as a conscious process of maturity related to its experiences in the world of physical, emotional and mental matter.

Conscious choices made while in higher states of consciousness are always for the benefit of the soul while on its journey through life as they are used to further increase the conscious use of a person's subconscious awareness applied to their physical, emotional and mental vehicles of consciousness as part of their evolutionary purpose.

The benefits of awareness of higher states of consciousness are there for anyone who takes the time to discover them within themselves. They are valuable aids in mind development which give results that lead to an increase in the awareness of life on a much vaster scale and with a whole lot more significance attached to the meaning and purpose of it.

There are different levels of human consciousness all of which go to make up the awareness of subconscious conscious and unconscious aspects of mind. Higher states of mind consciousness such as for example universal-soul-spiritual-divine or cosmic states; along with the more common states such as the physical-emotional-mental and intuitive nature of consciousness all go together to form part of mind awareness in its varying degrees of expression.

All these conditions of consciousness are in their most basic form states or conditions of energy in varying densities of matter. The higher states are more refined energies of mental awareness whose dimensions are different forms of consciousness formed out of the more subtle electromagnetic properties of matter. The form of consciousness lies hidden as the potentiality of mind in the nucleus of the subatomic or rather sub-atmic (atmic means spirit) particles of the soul's life force until a certain level of self-awareness is sufficiently refined enough as consciousness to attract and emit those energies which are allayed to the souls emotional and mental patterns and designs suited for its conscious expression as a human.

Realistically subconscious conscious unconscious are merely names given by us to describe our human behavior in terms of our perception and reasoning of a higher intelligence and mind awareness where we come to "know" by comparing that "which is known" to that which is "still yet to become known". The whole purpose of life it seems is to become more and more conscious and aware of it; by greater attunement to the forces of the conscious subconscious and unconscious, so that we can experience life better on a conscious level and come to see it for what it really is, and improve upon it where needed, in relation to our individual experiences and thoughts and feelings we get from it as a result of taking a conscious part in all levels of it.

That cannot truly happen unless the levels of consciousness of a person are experienced from a higher state of self-awareness whereby each level is able to be viewed simultaneously; caused as a result of a person's intelligence of each one contributing to that state of higher awareness of mind; which if it pleases we can term the soul for want of a better word. In other words in relation to development of extra mind awareness-better relations in the appreciation of life are formed and the link between a person's soul awareness and their conscious awareness of their subconscious- conscious relationship and higher states of consciousness are better orchestrated by use of their higher self-awareness and the flow of energies being exchanged between the main levels or planes of their consciousness is being maintained as a flow of unity and harmonious expressions.

Cloned Cat Consciousness

Many research scientists involved with the study of human consciousness believe that consciousness, and behavior related it, can be explained by brain processes. In other words, what we do and who we are simply result from neural activity in the brain.

In a recent article, Consciousness is Nothing but a Word (the title belies the real nature of the article), Henry D. Schlinger argues that we cannot limit human consciousness and behavior to simple brain activity.

I would like to present one small excerpt from his article which prompted me to touch on this topic today.

Schlinger writes, "...we can understand consciousness at its most important level - that of behavior - without any knowledge of neural correlates. That's not to say that such knowledge won't clarify the brain's role in mediating the behaviors. But the ultimate explanations are to be found in the evolutionary and individual learning histories that shaped the behaviors - not in the brain."

When I read that paragraph I was reminded of a conversation I had with my wife about cloning pets, and if the cloned version would still exhibit the same behaviors as the original. My wife hates having these conversations with me, and frequently the only response I get is a blank stare. In any case I prod on...

I'll use our cat Dusty as an example. In order to be an exact match, Dusty the clone would have to have the same developmental experiences, in the same places, with the same people, as his predecessor did.

Dusty #2 would probably not live in the same house that Dusty #1 lived in, or have two other cats sharing the place with him, certainly not the exact same cats. The only things Dusty #2 would share with Dusty #1 are his genetics, his diet, and me.

As Dusty #2 developed he would not do so in the same way, therefore he could only be a clone of the original Dusty physically, not mentally, because his behavior would be influence by a different set of experiences. Dusty #2's brain would learn and develop on its own. There would be no past experience, so in that sense the cloned Dusty would be a unique cat, though he would look the same. He would be the same but different.

In order for the cloned Dusty to be an exact match he would have to be created with a brain intact, containing all of the information that the original Dusty brain retained. That would be called "data upload." Science is still working on that, and my thoughts on artificial intelligence and consciousness are an article for another day.

So, we are what we know, and we know what we live. Consciousness is certainly more than just a word.

Consciousness - The Art of Being Human

What constitutes consciousness? Where does it reside? Is it strictly personal - or also transpersonal? Is there actually a "collective unconscious"? What happens to consciousness when we die? And perhaps most intriguing, why do we have this phenomenon at all?

Consciousness has only become a serious field of study in the scientific community within the past 20 years, though it represents a perennial focus of philosophical and theological inquiry. To define the term itself has proven difficult, alternately having been equated with a wakeful state, attention, spirituality, self-awareness. Others have gone further, suggesting awareness beyond the self, and capacity for experience. Generally, the concept is divided into two categories: phenomenal consciousness, concerning our actual experience of that which occurs in space and time, and access consciousness, the processes within us which act on these experiences.

The formal study of consciousness has resulted in more questions than answers thus far. Scientists cite two key areas of research problems: a category of "easy" ones (still considered quite difficult to adequately address) and the so-called "hard problem of consciousness".

First, the "easy" problems, called such because one has "only" to determine the mechanisms involved, concern the basic functions of consciousness: how we discriminate among sensory stimuli, integrate information from varied sources to control behavior, verbalize our inner states. While these questions haven't yet been answered, we assume that science will one day be able to do so.

The "hard problem of consciousness", however, a phrase coined by the philosopher David Chalmers, is this: why do we have these qualitative phenomenological experiences in the first place? "How" is easy to decipher, relative to "why".

Three further sets of questions have been presented within the scientific community: To what extent are humans - and other creatures, and even plants - conscious? At what point in individual human development does consciousness begin? And, can machines ever achieve a conscious state?

There are several elements critical to the understanding of consciousness: subjectivity, self-awareness, sentience, sapience, and the ability to perceive a relationship between oneself and one's environment. We each have our own, inherently felt experience of this phenomenon, with a corresponding innate sense of understanding, even if we can't verbalize what we 'know'. When anyone proposes to discuss the nature of consciousness, then, or new scientific findings are presented, each person - scientist or not, specialist in this field or otherwise, tends to have opinions formulated on personal experience. That is: we each carry our own unique model of consciousness.

EEG and other measures of brain waves have been used to understand brain response in various states of consciousness, and in turn, electrical stimulation to areas of the brain can produce these states. Some have concluded as a result that consciousness resides entirely within the brain, with no particular "seat" but rather diffuse, the various regions triggering one another dynamically. For others, however, this doesn't definitively rule out consciousness elsewhere in the body. It has been proposed that, even if the phenomenon of consciousness occurs in the various regions of the brain in interrelated processes, the remainder of the central nervous system (CNS) may also be involved, including not only the brain and brain stem but the spinal cord with its autonomic nervous system (ANS) as well as the 'body brains' of the various nerve plexi, most notably the celiac (solar) plexus -- where we have the phenomenon of 'gut instinct'.

Another question that must be raised: if we can deliberately alter our state of consciousness, through processes such as meditation, trance, self-hypnosis or biofeedback, what part of our consciousness is affecting our state of consciousness? Is it simply our cerebrum acting on our brain stem, or something more? At some point, consciousness begins to look quite fragmented, or perhaps mimics a feedback loop of sorts. As Descartes so famously said, "Cogito, ergo sum" - "I think [am thinking], therefore I am."

Further, if the complete CNS, including the ANS, then why not the PNS, or peripheral nervous system? We understand that the role of the PNS is essentially one of motor function. However, we cannot say for certain that consciousness is not also conveyed by these neural pathways. Indeed, consciousness as we know it may well represent a matrix that is conducted by the entire nervous system - and perhaps even the vascular and / or lymphatic systems as well. Chinese philosophy and medical theory might conceive of consciousness as qi, a nonphysical dynamic substance conveyed by a system of vessels that closely overlays the nervous system as we know it today.

Transpersonal psychology is the study and application of those experiences which seem to take one beyond individual consciousness, to a connection with or as a conduit of a consciousness greater than one's own experience. Mystical or transcendent as well as near-death experiences provide examples, as does the vast range in states of consciousness. Both transpersonal psychology and physics in the form of quantum mechanics potentially take the concept of consciousness one step further, in terms of interstructural communication at the subatomic level, even at great distances. Carl Jung conceptualized a "collective unconscious", a matrix of consciousness shared by all members of the human species past, present, and future, which would seem to be supported by the quantum model. Mystical traditions such as Sufism or Shamanism have explored consciousness extending beyond the physical body in ways that science has not yet begun to understand. In general, Asian conceptualizations in this area view ordinary consciousness as limited and narrow, and propose various practices to expand consciousness into something much greater than one's personal experience of it, toward a goal of enlightenment.

Without even delving into the vast philosophical realm, it is apparent that the concept of consciousness is quite complex, raising more questions than providing answers. There is no denying its existence, for at its core, it is what animates the living and is absent in the dead. But its structure, location, and far more, its very function remain a mystery.

As T.H. Huxley famously said in 1866, "How it is that anything so remarkable as a state of consciousness comes about as a result of irritating nervous tissue, is just as unaccountable as the appearance of the Djin when Aladdin rubbed his lamp."

Does Ego or Conscious Awareness Drive You?

Eckhart Tolle said the ego is the primary cause of man's dysfunction because it craves a special identity, though it can never name what will ultimately create that feeling for us, so is insatiable. This means that what more often than not drives us is a need to feel our ego's idea of identity, usually meaning to feel acknowledged by others and life itself in some particular way. This is why we identify who we believe ourselves to be with our thoughts, material items and money, and even through our need to be right and others wrong. We tend to aim at most desired results for the sake of that ego-desired identity rather than our true identity: our I Am-ness. Only through conscious awareness of our I Am-ness can we feel serenity with ourselves and life.

If you were to live in conscious awareness of your I Am-ness, your focus would be different. It wouldn't be so much about what you could get from others or life to feel good about yourself, but about how you are one with the Creative Consciousness and your unique, at-peace, giving-and-receiving expression of it. So the next questions are: What is Conscious Awareness and how do you get it?

It usually doesn't happen that we decide one day to awaken to conscious awareness and it occurs; nor do we think, affirm or vision ourselves into it, which is an ego tactic. Instead, we allow ourselves to awaken to the truth that it's already within us, covered under layers of ego cravings for a distinctive identity, whether positive (successful, for example) or negative (victim, pitiful, as examples)... as though our I Am-ness isn't enough.

Ernest Holmes said we are affected by the limited human-race consciousness, which is our tendencies of thoughts, beliefs, and actions passed along through generations. We are subjected to the human-race consciousness starting at birth, and must break away from it to attain conscious awareness, our true identity, our I Am-ness. Holmes also said consciousness is the "inner embodiment of an idea through the recognition of Truth and a direct relationship to the Divine." That's basically what many spiritual teachers have tried to convey to us: our true identity is about our relationship with All That Is, first and foremost. Embody that relationship, and we become aligned with deeper understanding, rather than oppose it; and that alignment empowers us in our true identity.

The human-race consciousness seldom mentions that connecting to this I Am-ness in us and living it is why we're here and that it will assist us more than anything else will. As Tolle wrote, "Most people don't inhabit a living reality, but a conceptualized one... The ego isn't wrong; it's just unconscious." When ego drives us, we live in our thoughts, often as compulsive thinkers (the thoughts rarely stop), believing our thoughts are the real us and our reality. Your real reality is your true identity. Your true identity is your consciousness, which is Divine Consciousness expressing through you.

Back to the questions of what conscious awareness is and how we get it. Sometimes we get what something is by understanding what it is not, and we get it (become it) by doing the opposite. So, you're not practicing conscious awareness if:

Your ego drives your choices and life in order to define your identity;

You're attached to something or someone in an unhealthy or all-consuming way, so that loss of or contrast with it or them causes you to feel your identity is lost or threatened;

Someone has to be wrong so you can be right;

You have to complain and criticize rather than state observations and facts (calmly) to address them productively;

You have to ridicule someone or something to feel strong or superior;

You feel worried, anxious, bored, unhappy, unfulfilled;

You react to others and life from your pain-body, your ego's storage house of every past grievance it won't let go of and believes once threatened (and still does) its identity;

You believe your ego's thoughts about people and life more than the Truth;

Your ego wants the identity of having conscious awareness, rather than you just having it.

Awareness is when you're not only conscious of what's around you but also aware that you're conscious. Tuning your awareness this way puts you in the moment you're in (conscious of your consciousness) and not in the past or future, which is the ego's compulsive-thinking tactic it uses to feed its need. You can begin a practice to help you escape the ego's energy-consuming ways. When you catch yourself engaged in compulsive thinking or any of the tendencies listed in the paragraph above, pause and re-mind yourself that your ego is engaged in a struggle with identity issues, issues your true consciousness doesn't have and can't have.

If you've ever stared at fish gliding in an aquarium, and felt yourself relax, focusing your attention as described here has the same effect, only it awakens you in a serene way rather than sedates you. Get still for even just a few moments. Eyes closed or open, put your attention on the life force at work in your physical body. You may or may not feel it, but know or sense that cells in your body are at work, taking care of numerous processes on your behalf. Listen, with inner stillness, to the sounds around you, without thought, judgment or attachment, just awareness. Feel your aliveness and the aliveness of everything around you that you are part of and is part of you. It's a good practice.

Practice makes progress.

Subliminal Message - 4 Tips to Live Life With Passion

A lot of people have resigned themselves to living mundane lives void of passion and energy. They have settled in high paying but boring jobs that have nothing to do with what they really want to do in life. They settle into routines and never go out of their way to get more out of life.

That's not what life is supposed to be. After all, we only live once. Should we only live to work and survive? Or should we work so that we can live our lives freely?

Stop watching by the sidelines. Aren't you tired of going green with envy when you see photos of your friends traveling, having fun, going to parties, going skiing, having adventures, and just taking a huge passionate bite out of life?

You too can live a life full of passion. Here are some tips on how to transform your life and maximize your passion.

1. Discover your passion. You will not be able to live out your passion if you don't discover what it is first. Every person has an inner passion they are simply born to do. Some people are fortunate to find this passion early in life, while some spend half their lives searching for it. But discovering this passion, this calling, should be the most important goal in your life. This passion will give you direction and inspiration in life.

Once you discover your passion, you will never go wrong. You may not achieve perfect success or maximum wealth, but you will be happy because you are doing what you are passionate about. Also, when you work on something that's in line with your passion, you will be more motivated and inspired. This will improve performance and boost productivity.

2. Seize every opportunity. If you want to live a passionate life, make a conscious decision to do so. A lot of people live boring lives simply because they refuse to seize the opportunities that come their way. There are many people who, when faced with the opportunity to travel or do something adventurous, immediately slink back from the opportunity. They may do so out of fear or out of the unwillingness to leave their comfort zones. After a while, they find themselves complaining that they never do anything fun in life, without realizing that the lack of passion in their lives is the result of their own conscious choices.

3. Change your perspective about life. Some people miss out on a lot in life because of the way they think. They think that life is about making money, so they work all the time without taking the time to smell the flowers. Some, on the other hand, think that they have plenty of time to pursue their passions when they are older; they focus their energy on other things first. What usually happens is that they never pursue their passions at all, as they easily get carried away by the other demands of life.

So if you want to live a passionate life that you can feel fulfilled about, you have to change the way you think about life.

4. Send the right messages. You can also train your mind to look or even crave for passion by sending subliminal messages to your subconscious mind. Sometimes, our conscious minds are constantly bombarded with our daily concerns and worries. This makes it hard for us to see life with passion - consciously. But do you know that the subconscious mind is more powerful? So when you tell your subconscious mind to seek passion, then it will, whether you know it or not, and whether your conscious mind agrees or not. Here are some subliminal messages you can use to train your mind to pursue a life of passion:

I thrive on adventure and passion.

I love doing what I am passionate about.

I enjoy pursuing my passion and interests.

I work to live.

I have a natural hunger for life.

Develop A Prosperity Consciousness

It is extremely important to learn how to develop a prosperity consciousness because this is the starting point of all riches. You need to develop this before you can achieve any prosperity in your life.

You must think like a financial success way before you will see any prosperity in your reality. If you refuse to develop a prosperity consciousness and continue focusing on lack of wealth then you will draw poverty in your life. Like wealth poverty is also a state of mind.

You must believe in your mind without a doubt that you can and will achieve wealth before you will even see it in your life. Most people want to achieve more money, better health, a better relationship and they take the time to write it down as a goal. However as they have it written as a goal deep down they do not believe that they will be able to achieve anything they wrote. Begin today at once to develop unshakable belief that you can achieve financial freedom and you will find out that you will begin to attract it.

I have been on the road to learning how to become a millionaire and been working on my financial success. I have read books like "Think and Grow Rich" by Napolean Hill and "Science Of Getting Rich" by Wallace D. Wattles and several other personal development books. They all say the same things about the importance of learning how to develop a prosperity consciousness.

Our minds are very valuable to us and we must learn how to utilize it and protect it because it will give us whatever we choose to focus on. If you focus on success a lot and see yourself in a successful situation and truly believe it then eventually your mind will make it become a reality. However if you fear things like lack of money, bad health, car accidents or whatever else that you do not want to experience in your life, then it also will come into your life. The world you are living in is a reflection of what you have been thinking about. The great news is that if you are not living in the lifestyle that you do not really love; you have the potential to develop a prosperity consciousness and change it anytime you are ready to begin taking action.

The other important aspect before anything will change in your life is the law of expectation. You must constantly expect good things to happen to you. You can also call this law of expectation "faith." If you want things to change you must not doubt it you must begin working on your faith and believing that good things will happen to you everyday. Without faith nothing great is possible so as you learn how to develop a prosperity consciousness begin working on developing your faith again as you once had it when you were a child.

Get your hands on some personal development programs today and begin changing how you think so you can develop a prosperity consciousness and begin attracting all the good things in your life.
