Self-Awareness and How to Obtain It
 Wisdom of an Ancient Shamanism Sensory and Self-Awareness Exercises Self-awareness is a long and hard road to understanding the Creator's Plan and our role in this life’s choice. Before we can truly understand the world around us we must understand ourselves first. You may think you have obtained self-awareness, but in truth most really don’t understand what that truly is. Spiritual awareness and physical awareness is not the only self-awareness we need to embrace in order to achieve universal balance. With the pressures of the world weighing heavily on our shoulders it is important more now that ever before you invest in your spiritual growth. Partaking in self-awareness exercises will help increase your success and balance. Introduction Most believe that we are not in touch with the world around us, or out of arrogances believe we know the world too well, which is false in statement. To claim to know the world around us, which would be again false. We are reliant on others to tell us world events and turn to the written words of man and modern media for our answers to our questions. Most of the time, not questioning the validity of the sources of information flowing to us. We at times believe without question, we lack the quite spirit to understand the true meaning of life. In our insecurities we believe in the forces of the world around us, a world of distorted or half-truths to the answers to our questions. We give over control of the world around us to others, which tell us to follow as sheep and believe in their concept of the meaning of life and God’s plan for those who follow. We forget that we are Children of the Creator of All, please understand what the word “Children” truly means. We all at one time or another have asked that divine question, “Who Am I” and “Why Am I Here”, which has passed through our mind at one time or another. In fact we neither truly know the world around us nor do we actually know our purpose in this world and our life’s work that falls in with God’s plan. We seek answers in books and in the teachings of the ages, but to truly understand our roll in the fabric of all creation and the path that we each are destined to follow, we must turn within and understand ourselves first. To quite our minds and listen to the rhythm of the living energy that moves through us. Our minds are cluttered with the noises of a world in turmoil and misunderstanding of who we are. Before you can understand the world and cope with negative energies of the world around us, we must quite our minds and look within. We must answer our own questions about ourselves before we can understand the world around us. To say the least we cannot truly understand God’s plan for the world we live in and for us. All will become clear through silencing the background and random chatter of our minds and focusing on the life force that God gave to each of us. There is an energy within us that holds the wisdom of the ages, the creativity to see the future and build towards it. We are part of the creator, there for we must quite our minds and focus on that energy by becoming more aware of ourselves. To center ourselves in that light and focus on the very light of creation which resides in us, the very light and energy of God the creator of all. All the answers to our questions reside within and through the eternal words, thoughts and love of the living force, which binds us all together and makes up the very fabric or the universe, which we exist in.
