What is the Higher Self?

The “Higher Self” is “you.” It is a concept not understood by most. Accepting this is the first step for moving forward on the “Higher Self” journey.  This fact is the main difference between other entities like our  “Guides” and “Angels.” What must be understood is how unique this relationship of the “Higher Self” is. Knowing that it is “you.”  Not an external entity. The “Higher Self” or selves, depending on how deep your self-mastery is, is a relationship that unravels and unravels all from within.

A relationship that is profound and ever-evolving. The “Higher Self” was more knowable and understood in our younger years and state. As children, we lived in a state of truth and as unfettered beings. As the years roll by, we start to disconnect from that inner truth. We begin to walk away and make compromises from our “truest self,” the “Higher Self.”

To reconnect, it asks a person to regain and restore their faith. Resolute to push those truths back into the forefront of their lives. Living in your truth is key. How does one do that? You might be asking. It starts with “You.” 

Little steps towards the truer, authentic you encourage this relationship to bloom. Taking steps like   listening to your “gut.” Getting comfortable with intuition and gut feelings that reach you daily is a must. Learning how to follow these hints is the beginning stages of this realization.

Now, let us imagine your sitting at a job you cannot stand. Every day, you hear internally that you should “look for another job.”  Now this is where fear or lack mentality will step in. You told yourself, “Check out other jobs”. The ego immediately hops in and is not pleased. Because the Ego’s main function is to keep the psyche safe. These thoughts are not safe or those thoughts of freedom are not acceptable to the Ego.

So the statements or thoughts that may crop up sound something like – “What if you lose money doing this, looking for a job and interviewing – Don’t forget you have bills to pay – Or what if there are worse people at this new job, you’re comfortable now, do you want to mess that up? – What will your spouse think or say? The list goes on and on. But recognize the way these thoughts make you feel. Keyword FEEL. How do you FEEL? If you feel scared, I would say you are not consulting the “Higher Self,” but rather a more negative thought form designed for stagnation and the minimization of the “self,” better known as the “ego.”

Now, if you can imagine there is that side or truthful strength within that highlight, it may be highlighting job emails, or you start to hear about new opportunities somewhere else. These nudges are brought to your attention so that you can follow the breadcrumbs that the “Higher Self” is motioning to “you.” Notice how those “Higher Self” cues are not based on fear. A “Higher Self” will not use fear, or lack to control and manipulate a thought process. The “Higher Self” will provide solution-based thinking and or pose questions of self-reflection to guide you to the answers “you” seek.

Also, if you tend to see repetitive situations occurring over and over, that may be a state of being the “Higher Self” orchestrates to show yourself what is not working. Sometimes we see and interpret the signs and situations well. Learning to see these patterns and recognize the rightful place of the “Higher Self. “
