In Search of Self

Hi Reader,

How is your heart today?

When I'm unified, my writing has given me information on how I've grown, what I've healed, and what comes next. This was an inspired piece that feels like it's for you too.

Warmly,

Steph


In Search of Self

In Search of Self.

Does that make you uncomfortable?

Just the suggestion of looking inward?

If you haven’t been there – within yourself – where have you been and why did you go away?

“In search of self” is kind of a funny phrase.

There is no search here – you are within, where you’ve always been, and where you shall remain until your body gives way.

Then your SELF – your Jingshen – that unity of consciousness, heart, and Shen , will carry on without its shell of skin and bones.

But let’s get back to your body that’s supported by the life blood of your Qi .

Have you noticed it lately? How is it? What does it say about life these days?

How about your Qi? Did you know it was there giving nourishment to body, heart, and Shen?

What are you willing to do in support of this?

Perhaps that answer is something to go in search of.

And how is your heart?

Is it open and free spreading love and gratitude unconditionally?

Or have you guarded it with misplaced limits, shrouded it in numbness, ignored its pleas for attention?

Then we come to Shen – your True Self – so infinitely capable of manifesting wisdom beyond your mind’s imagination.

Are you willing to uncover the barriers to connection with that?

Are you ready for that inner quest?


❤️ Jingshen – the unity of consciousness, heart, and Shen. It continues life after life and manifests infinite wisdom. It carries your realization and wisdom; and your patterns of the consciousness and heart into your next life.

❤️ Shen – True Self.

❤️ Qi – your life force. It is energy, matter, and information.

April 28, 2024 Dear Reader, I had a joyful trip down to Fresno, California for a long awaited in-person Ren Xue retreat. It was a long journey with 3 connections but delightful people experiences along the way. My arrival back in Canada had a bumpier landing and a fresh opportunity to have a look at how my patterns are doing out in the ordinary world. I’ll highlight some observations and patterns as I tell you the story. I’m aware there are more-it's ok if you don't email me to tell me about...
