  Gratitude is a positive Attitude Your attitude comes from your thinking. How you are internalising your world around you and making sense of it. Your actions are very much interlinked with your attitude. Basically, we end up acting and reacting based on our thoughts. How we think and feel as to what is going on in our world around us.  From this, you can see why what you are thinking is very important. Why a positive attitude can affect your behaviour and in turn your life experience.   Change your attitude, change your whole world.    The wonderful thing is we can have control on our thinking. We can choose to change our attitude to a positive one. We can become more aware of our thought processes and take action to change it.   We self-reflect and self-talk all the time. We can be cynical, pessimistic, judgmental and harsh on ourselves and others with our thought process. This way of thinking is normal, maybe unfortunately so, but it’s not really positive or necessarily helpful.    For example, instead of using our self-talk to be harsh on ourselves we can use it to encourage and to self-praise.  If something you wanted didn’t go to plan, instead of thinking in terms of loss or failure, you can frame the situation differently. You can take on the attitude that you tried and did your best.  You can acknowledge your efforts, thank and appreciate yourself for how you tried. Doing that is a lot more positive than criticising yourself. You are more likely to be empowered to try again if you see this one situation in a more positive context. Just because you were not successful now or things didn’t work out like how you wanted them to, does not mean you yourself are a failure. Neither does it mean that next time you won’t be successful. The reality is that success and positive results often comes from sustained effort.   True also is that we cannot control some outcomes.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              Your thinking is reflected in your actions      You can, at any time, take a moment to appreciate what you have achieved so far. To reflect a moment on all that you can be thankful for is a positive action for you to take. This gives you the opportunity to relax a little. Relax not just mentally but physically. Remember, our minds and bodies are interconnected. We respond physically to our emotional thoughts.  When we think a harsh or upsetting thought, our body responds with stress hormones and our muscles tense. In reverse, when we think of happy soothing thoughts our body reacts by relaxing muscles and releasing ‘feel good’ hormones. ​Even a simple thought such as being appreciative of the blue sky or your nice lunch is a positive thought. To focus on a positive, no matter what that positive is, distracts you from focusing on the negative.  It is a simple but powerful technique of stress management to alter your attitude in this way.                                                                                  In times of anxiety, or when we are upset, we have the ability to take a moment to consider the many interactions we have had with others where they were nice or kind to us.  Our memory can conjure up those happy and positive times with others in the past. Even in times of crisis we can do this, and even find ourselves smiling at those memories.  Instead of focusing on where we have been let down, we have the ability to change our thoughts to recall those that have supported us. This can have a calming and empowering effect.  Focusing on a positive distracts you from the negative   A positive attitude makes us nicer people to be around. It improves our interactions with others and allows for a more positive experience. We are far more likely to smile at or be kind to others when we have acknowledged how important those interactions can be. The concept of ‘Paying it Forward’ whereby we pass on positive feelings to others is all part of this positive attitude.                                                             The ability to alter our perception as you can see can make us more aware and centred in ourselves. This is the very essence of calm self-control.  To be aware of and in control of your thoughts is an essential self-help tool. It is a tool that can be taught to you and supported through psychotherapy and counselling.The ability to switch your perspective is a very helpful resource. A psychotherapist such as myself would teach you such tools so that you can self-manage your moods and perception.  The final thought here is that positivity is always possible, even in difficult times.    References: Positive Psychology research and discussion on ‘What is Gratitude’ – Click here About the author: Clair O’Brien Meany is a professional psychotherapist with an educational background in Psychology, Psychotherapy & Coaching.

Chapter 3 Not So Warm Welcome   Spain welcomed us with sunshine, as I was hoping for. Straight from the plane, full of positive attitude, we jumped into our rented car and whoosh we went. We were driving from Alicante towards Valencia and the road is next to the sea. It’s a beautiful paseo with great views. The first thing we did when we got into our small town, was a quick shopping in Aldi, as of course we were starving and then we went to see the beach. Kids were so excited, they immediately took their shoes off and were running on the sand.   We went to the agency to get keys to the apartment that we’ve rented online. And here, one piece of advice, unless you have a trustworthy person in the agency, never, never ever rent without checking first! Well, I didn’t know. On the pictures, it all looked good. Girl from the agency was reassuring me that the flat has been refurbished as it’s been only bought 3 months ago. I asked if she could check it as I’m coming with children, she agreed (but hasn’t done it). So I trusted her. Reality appeared a bit less optimistic. First, she had another meeting and even wasn’t there, so her colleague gave us keys. We managed to find the apartment and went in. It was a big disappointment. The flat was not renovated, just slightly re-painted. The kitchen was old and you had to choose if you want a fridge or microwave connected to mains. There were dead cockroaches under beds. There weren’t enough power points to connect TV in the bedroom. AAGGGRRRHH   The heater was not working (the gas one), so we called agency saying that we’re very upset and unhappy. She said “oh, I thought it was cleaned (the flat)”, but obviously she didn’t check it. Fortunately, she helped us to obtain a new gas bottle for the kitchen and 2 electric heaters, which all was paid by the owner of that flat.           In the next few days, there was rain and wind, how familiar was that. Kids were bored and only wanted to watch TV, didn’t wanted to do any activities, not to even mention homeschooling. We bought online classes, but our stubborn kids said: “it doesn’t feel right to learn at home”. Maybe it’s my lack of ability to “make kids do what I want”, but it was getting worse and worse. Kids couldn’t play together, they were interrupting each other. Although we’ve signed them up for sports activities in the afternoons, they were getting crazy. I thought it’s a challenge for them to move to the country and don’t speak the language (but back in the UK, our son has been asked all the time to learn the basics, with even apps to help him). Yes, it is, but it’s a small price to pay for the sun (but where the heck is this sun?), fresh produce and closeness to the beach (it’s so cold, forget the beach).     We’ve started having a crash. We thought that it was a bad decision and that we’re going to be here just for the six months (period of the contract for the rented flat). Then, we’ll go back to the UK.   The next morning, Saturday, the electricity went out. Agency, of course, doesn’t work on Saturdays. With our broken Spanish, my husband called some electrician and he came quite quickly. Apparently, the contact on this flat for the electricity was small and we couldn’t use so many things at the same time: TV, washing machine and vacuum. Of course, he charged us 30 euro.   In the week, we were going to the city hall (ayuntamiento) to try to get a permission for fixing the flat that we bought for the bank. We needed new windows, new kitchen, bathroom, walls etc. We didn’t have either water or electricity connected there. Thank you Google Translate.   In the first month, probably 24 times, when kids were in beds, or even not, we were wondering what is happening. Did we expect it to be hard, so hard? Why kids are not making it easier, but rather opposite. And then, my husband’s speed bike was stolen from in front of the Chinese store. Nightmare after nightmare.   Next Saturday, there was a smoke coming out from a hole in the wall. My husband called another electrician and apparently, the cables were wrongly connected and if I didn’t notice it, we could set out the fire accidentally. Karamba! Another 30 euros.   The electrician in the new house (let’s called our flat that), was the third that we’ve called, and the worst one. He looked and smelled like he was drinking last few days, he made more damage than repair. Only he had to do is to fix the intercom on the staircase. He came with the new intercom, left it and went for a lunch at 10am! He came back at 11.30, knocked down a huge part of the wall inside our flat, as “the intercom’s cover didn’t fit in”, made a huge mess, called all the neighbours to check their connection and left us with a bill for 60 euro! The worst worker ever!    We felt like crying….   I knew we’re tough cookies and will sort it out….well, at least we’ll try….we had an idea…  

  I knew it was a little early to publish my own Awakening story, but a grand inner passion and an excitement so strong drove me to share my magical insights, experiences and new energy/information I’d gathered on my journey and allowed me to move from a world of struggle, limitation & fear into a world of ease, freedom & love. I wanted to help others understand this great time of change, be able to journey through it with ease and grace and allow their own grand adventure to unfold.   An excerpt from my book Your Magnificent Self… A Journey to Freedom   The Human physical body and mind is taking a natural quantum leap into its own Divinity. The pure and clear crystalline light of Divine love and intelligence itself is absorbing the physical body and mind and integrating into One Body Consciousness.   This natural transformation process causes the physical body and mind to re-structure and re-balance. Old ways and patterns to be rewired and re-written and hidden dark aspects of Self, shaken lose. It makes people feel raw, chaotic and unbalanced at times, especially if they remain unaware of what is happening and don’t realise that this is all part of a natural cycle of change. Many people become unwell and enter the depths of depression.   If a person is lucky, the illness takes them into a void, a wonderful opportunity for some quiet me-time, to connect to a part of them self that is pure love and a knowing that everything is OK. With the conscious breath they can expand within themself, feel into their own true nature and be aware of who they truly are.   My passion didn’t stop with publishing my book… I went on to bring out into the public arena a local and online MasterCreator Class that my friend Anna-Marie and I had created back in 2010 as a celebration of our own Awakening, ongoing Integration and Embodied Enlightenment! Again to inspire others who are Awakening to realise they are so much more than a physical body/mind, to commit to and celebrate their new role, allowing them to quantum leap into a grand adventure beyond everything ever known. Our next MasterCreatorClass is May/Jun 2018. Registration is now open: More Info here.      The great natural cycle of change that is happening in the world has been brought about by Humanity’s expanding consciousness… The Evolution of Humanity… as more and more people realise the truth of who they are and what life on Earth is all about. Consciousness now has an added ingredient… the wisdom of YOU… the Human & Divine Consciousness that now attracts New Energy to come in and serve YOU.   A whole new ball game is now in place and ready to play.   Unfortunately there are still many people who are not tuned into their 6th sense and inner knowing and instead of listening and following their heart; the direct hotline to their spirit, they continue to play in the only game they know and remain caught up in fear and lack.   So now, in the midst of great change, confusion and chaos is experienced by many and find themselves spiralling into the depths of depression.   I’d like to talk a little about our discomforts, in particular feeling stressed and depressed… and how this is part of a persons Awakening and a time to discover the key to Wellness and Enlightenment.   Looking at Stress… It was Bruce Lipton’s scientific research and spiritual insights he wrote about in his book The Biology of Belief a decade ago that resonated with me and helped me understand how our body/mind works… how it either grows or protects itself. Our Body/Mind system switches on or off depending on how we are feeling. In happy, exciting and optimistic times our body grows, but in sad, worrying and pessimistic times our body stops growing and goes into protection mode.   In the short term; worrying about our bad day at work, an argument or feeling unwell, our body/mind can handle it and will quickly get back to optimum growth and vitality.   But have you noticed these last few years, our emotional worries are becoming a normal way of living with continuous stress?   Via the world wide web and social media we hear nothing but reasons for us to worry about the future… losing a job, losing a home, losing a partner, being burgled or terrorised, falling prey to dis-ease… and on and on it goes. Our pressure and stress levels accumulate as we allow fear to impregnate us deeply from all walks of society and our body/mind can only do its job and stay in a mode of protection.   Slowly, our adrenal hormones on command from our hypothalamus and pituitary gland coordinate the constriction of our blood vessels to our vital organs and energy reserves and reroute blood and energy to the outer tissues of our arms, legs and hindbrain… in preparation to fight the good fight. Having no break, our emotional stress… eventually turns chronic and we succumb to physical and mental dis-ease as the repression of our brain activity and immune system to preserve vital energy makes a person weaker and unclear… and eventually as all our (11) internal systems shut down we lose our life.   Physical Pain and Mental Depression is a natural part of our Body/Mind warning system… it is telling us that we are out of balance and have to change our way of being if we don’t want to eventually die suffering in this way.   It is a nudge from the part of us we agreed to forget about long ago, to be able to experience being fully Human. I like to call it part of our Human Awakening… falling into a spiral of depression/pain… for us to discover Spirit, our Divinity that has always been close, patiently waiting for the Human to realise the truth of who they are… and once again… although this time with a lot more Human wisdom… come together as a powerful and magnificent being to experience embodied Enlightenment.   So what to do?    Allow yourself time to be quiet, relax and just breathe… go within with an open heart and allow yourself to be receptive to the part of YOU that knows how to balance All of Yourself, to release all the untruths around lack and fear, to feel the power of love you truly are and prepare for your next great adventure… beyond everything ever known.   You can trust this process, reconnecting with and surrendering to your new best friend. It’ll take a while for the physical and mental illness to align itself, but just love yourself completely with big compassionate eyes and trust everything is perfectly ok. AND in the meantime get excited about realising the truth of Your Magnificent Self and your upcoming adventure. I promise you its going to be awesome and so much more, you can’t even imagine.   Barbara Franken… Creative Visionary & MasterCreatorInspiring New Energy Consciousness     My true Love Story: Your Magnificent Self… A Journey to Freedom.For more detailed information about my Awakening and Integration I published by true magical journey, exploring Who I AM with the help of nine Elemental Beings and expand from a world of fear, struggle and limitation into a New Energy Consciousness of love, grace and freedom.

  To be or not to be Powerful… is a similar question to be or not to be Selfish? Is it OK to be Selfish and Powerful?   Surely it depends on how you use yourself and your power in relationship to yourself and others… in kindness and compassionate ways or controlling and fearful ways. But first, isn’t it important to realise that you are a magnificent and powerful person in your own right, who can be full of yourself, cooperate and interact, as a unique and essential part in your community… AND not have to struggle and fight for your place in life?   All Human experience is ultimately for everyone to discover what doesn’t work and keeps them experiencing lifetimes of feeling unworthy, broken and alone. Playing active roles; repeating patterns in the human power struggle, stealing power from each other to gain position… power… control… riches until they realise that nothing can be gained without making something or someone else go without and suffer AND how each person is an essential, unique, magnificent and powerful part of source/consciousness itself.   Having said this… Everyone has freewill, to the extent of being free to experience whatever they desire. There is no power outside that determines what one can or cannot experience. As part of Humanity, each person has to honour this and accept other people’s choice of experience. No-one can go about changing the ways of others… which brings up the whole topic of the importance of conscious parenting and nurturing our children in a free and loving way, so they can grow up to know how magnificent and powerful they are.   A loving power that cares for and honours all AND brings in everything they desire to experience magical moments for the good of self and all Humanity.   What each person can do though, is choose to find time to focus on self, follow their own heart, spend time getting to know body, mind & spirit, make sure they feel great and live in balance and joy, and trust that everything they wish to experience comes to them at the most perfect time. The power of love each person is, naturally radiates out into the world, it not only influences the ones who are ready to align with love but protects them from the ones who want to continue to experience the darkness.   It’s taken me a long time to understand how life works and how essential it is to look at the world with eyes of compassion and see the potential that is out there just waiting for consciousness to choose to experience it. Tom and myself painted the painting above… a picture of paradise that we continue to attract, for us to experience a most magnificent life.       Do you want to be part of my Guest Blogger Feature… Your Magnificent Self?   Every other Monday throughout this year, IAM hosting a Guest Blogger/Author Feature and put YOU, my magnificent fellow Blogger/Author in the LIGHT.

Chapter 2 How To Move and Don’t Freak Out I’m just starting to write about it, but this is a new chapter in my/our life……it’s started 2 months ago We left the UK with kids (9-M and 4-F)…to make a long story short = in need of sun…with big hopes and few house arrangements..some ups with creative downs..challenging situations and language as an issue…finding our ways….   Nr 1 …NIE number…if you want to do anything in Spain (and I really mean it) you need to have a NIE number…  Going a bit in the past, about 6 months ago my husband decided to buy a bank repossessed flat in a small town in Valencia region. The guy how was administering it was British and he helped us to sort it all out…well….for the money of course. But, his Spanish fiancee was our appointee in Spain to deal with the paperwork, and, to be honest, we wouldn’t be able to do it without her. Naive enough, still in the UK, we were paying solicitors for the documents we needed in Spain, we transferred money to Spanish bank account to have a proof of income, we did so many things, paper wise,  that I can’t even recall them….but, there are websites where you can find out, step by step what the process is. Mainy my husband was dealing with this part of our move.   I was sorting out the moving companies, checking Shiply.com, getting things packed, trying to sell as much as we could, as minimalism was our aim. I used Gumtree, Ebay, Shpock, Facebook and word of mouth to sell things. Unluckily we didn’t manage to sell the fridge and few huge wardrobes, but we don’t miss them. It was a council rented house, so they will utlise the stuff that we’ve left.  It was just after Christmas, so I understand that people didn’t have money, weren’t thinking about it…etc    The man and the van came and collected our 11 big boxes, 3 packed bikes and a tall shelf, yes, that’s it…a bit over 10 years packed in just those boxes. He was friendly, helpful and gave us all the details. Delivery was on time and we received a help with unpacking. The service was 5 stars (the top). In the weekend before our leaving date, we had friends coming and we were giving them “presents” that we didn’t want to take. It was fun but it was busy too, as the time was really limited….and our luggage was limited too. On the last night I drunk a lot of coffee, as the flight was early in the morning and taxi was booked for 5am, I decided I don’t have a time for sleep. I was still throwing away things, preparing boxes for charity shops. My brother was helping a lot on the last day, he was moving fast and doing things together with my husband. Kids, as the friends were coming with their kids, seemed to be a bit not-so-much-realizing that “the time is here”. It was raining when we were leaving, it was still dark and cold. We did it. We were on the airport on time, with our luggage checked in and were waiting for the plane to come.   The new life…we’ve moved out from a house in the UK to a flat in Spain…we have had a huge dream that we can live in a warm country, kids will be homeschooled and we’ll be travelling and enjoying the peace. Hmmm….reality check came              

  I noticed how comfortable I felt experiencing our last powerful Super Blue FullMoon Eclipse… I didn’t feel any big emotions coming up that usually try and pull me into play… just a little of my old control and the other side of the coin, the victim; old roles coming up that were ready to dissolve. I simply breathed in acceptance, relaxed and enjoyed it all. A couple of days later I woke up feeling physically sick and spent a morning in bed and in the bathroom, literally releasing lots.   So I can say it was awesomely powerful. This moon was helping Humankind big time, naturally detoxing us from our old 3D thoughts and emotions, making space in our physical body/mind for more light upgrades. So we are by no means finished yet. So hang in there. Higher in vibration we go. Yes. Preparing for Embodied Enlightenment.   I was wondering what to blog about this week… and whilst I was sorting through past blog posts I came across a post I wrote back in 2013, Awakening to Who You Truly Are. So after a little tweak here and there I’ve copied it underneath, because it’s probably even more valid now as more and more people are feeling the symptoms of their Natural Awakening and wondering Whats Going On!    After all my own Awakening and Integration experience, IAM driven with great passion to be here and remind everyone that everything is happening most perfectly and it’s time for the Human to slow down, take it easy, relax and breathe…  and allow the part of you to bring you through this Great Transformation… Your Awakening and Integration in ease and grace.   Awakening to Who You Truly Are Based on my own ‘long’ awakening and integration experience; that IAM still experiencing, the awakening of my sacred friends, the teachings of Adamus from the Crimson Circle and the research of Heather Carlini from the Carlini Institute, I have written the stages of Awakening that have helped me journey through this time and I know will help others to understand what is happening to them now. To allow their fears and pains to come home to them peacefully… and with acceptance and consciously breathing… realise their heart and soul’s desire to experience Heaven on Earth.   One heart at a time, Humankind is naturally Awakening after a long and hard ‘Human’ experience. You remember that you are so much more than your physical Human body, mind and five senses you have used.  You know that this Awakening is part of a natural cycle of stages…  stages that at times you think you are going nowhere or even backwards… but the Divine part of you has it all perfectly under their umbrella of responsibility.   You are part of an ever expanding cosmic happening. The Awakening Human realising the existence of its light body within and how NOW, with new awareness, it the perfect time to experience the integration of your light body & your physical body. For you to experience the full blossoming of your Enlightenment here in the physical reality and beyond. Allowing yourself to consciously live on Earth as a Sovereign and Magnificent Being… A Living Ascended MasterCreator.        It begins with… shutting down the contact with your soul to fully experience your humanness…You may remember a time in your childhood crying, feeling misunderstood and being alone in your bedroom and maybe at the same time seeing, hearing or feeling ‘a presence’, ‘a light’, ‘an angelic song’ or a deep knowing that everything was just fine.   At some stage during your childhood, like so many others… you chose to ‘shut down’ the communication with your soul and spiritual essence to allow yourself freedom to fully experience your humanness and the world of duality.  It was probably too early to ‘come out’ and tell your parents and the world of your true and magical magnificence… they wouldn’t of understood back then… But you somehow found the courage to get on with your life, grow up and move away from the family home and begin your own life. Seeking your FREEDOM. Living and experiencing life, focusing on your work, children, relationship, hobby. Learning about LOVE and PAIN.   First Stage of Awakening… Your call to attention…At the most perfect time, ‘your soul’ creates the most perfect situation to get ‘your Human’ attention.   Your children leave the family nest, your relationship becomes tiring, you feel agitated, feel empty, feel that you are missing out on something, other people’s drama and negative behaviour becomes too overwhelming for you, you feel trapped, you feel curious as to what else is out there, you have questions about life.   A book, a movie, a person suddenly catches your attention and uplifts you. You lose your career or someone close. You have a serious accident or a dis-ease of the body, mind & spirit.   Second Stage of Awakening… Dismantling your life…Bit by bit your old life falls away… you lose your job, relationships, friends, family… your old ways of thinking, believing and doing all come up to be questioned… Your fears come into question… You re-evaluate your whole life and what you all about.   This stage can be quite traumatic if you don’t understand what is happening and only fight life instead of trusting yourself. Think of it as a test… from your soul, to find out if you are ready to integrate your humanness and divineness now, here on EARTH. Allow yourself to resonate with this natural stage of your awakening, consciously breathe, accept and flow with life. Know its all going to be OK, no matter what situation you gave yourself to experience.   Third Stage of Awakening… Glimpses of Clarity and releasing human desperation…You become interested in different things, nature, creative pursuits, beauty, yourself… you attract different friends, jobs and find a new way talking with family… you start FEELING a deep love for yourself and life, you take time out for yourself, come up for yourself. You realise that what you have been searching for… LOVE, FREEDOM, JOY… is right there within YOU. You connect with your sixth FEELING sense… An innate intuitive communication between your divineness and humanness.  You see the fog lifting and allow yourself to connect with non-physical beings.   Then you become distracted from this new clarity about yourself, about life… Life throws at you worries about a project, fears of change, a body that doesn’t want to work, pain, having no money, having no friends, being alone. It is essential that you understand that these are all your old doubts and aspects of your past, coming up and back home to you… wanting to be accepted, loved and released. It is all part of the integration of ALL OF YOU…   Fourth Stage of Awakening… Quiet Time and Potentialising…Consciously breathing in acceptance, of being in a place of fun, creativeness, laughter and joy in the present moment. Accepting your mind games and allowing yourself to go beyond the limited mind and physical dual world. Allowing the distractions and doubts that continue to come home to you, to integrate… becoming ONE WITH YOU.    You know that you always have a choice. You trust your mind to give you all the answers you need. Trust your body to take care of itself. Trust your soul and spiritual essence to bring you fully into the integration of your ‘Human Divine’ Enlightenment. You allow yourself to flow with the New Energy Consciousness, living in a new and harmonious way… Your Way. Allowing yourself to bring your hearts desire, dream and potential into the physical reality…   Trusting your physical dense body to take its own time to transform from Carbon Based to Crystalline Based…You realise, after ‘years’ of integrating the depth and magnitude of All of Yourself…  it takes your physical body/mind as long as it needs to physically transform from the carbon based Human to the crystalline DivineHuman.   You learn patience, enjoying each moment; experiencing the blossoming of your 6 senses and the release of all your old fears and yesterdays as they detox & transform. You realise the more you fall back into drama, your body/mind systems will play up and let you know!   You also notice how your ‘light code’ upgrades play havoc on your physical body, causing many uncomfortable moments… it is essential to trust this process and remember all is well and everything will pass… eventually.     Affects and Changes of the Awakening to the Earth and the Human Body… The Earth and Humankind are all part of a Natural Shift of Consciousness that is occurring now… Our solar system finds itself surrounded by a higher vibrational energy… a new energy that we have called forth in our declaration for no more fear, greed and power-mongering…  It is an energy that resonates with LOVE… Love that humans have learned to FEEL here on Earth… Love, that creates DivineHumanBeings, allowing them to live in a peaceful and harmonious surrounding on Earth…  This new energy, of intense light actually affects the magnetic make-up of our whole solar system… Creating intense magnetic storms on our sun, where strong solar flares reach the Earths orbit and interfere with the magnetics within the Earth and the Human Being…   The human body contains millions of tiny magnetic particles… that interconnect through human antenna’s to the Earth’s magnetic field, enabling the human to receive and transmit consciousness which influence the physical body and all its internal systems…   The interference of the magnetic field is causing ‘a cleansing effect’ on Earth, physical shifting and shaking the earth and her inhabitants, creating unusual weather patterns and within the Human Being…  cleansing people from all their fears and yesterdays…  It is actually the most beautiful gift that we can receive… Intense light to naturally awaken our consciousness, changing our DNA and crystalising our molecules…  Our inner light, our soul is being ignited anew, clearing our body of past debris… burning away everything that no longer serves us, leaving nothing but pure love and passion within each Human Being and the Earth….   During this shift in consciousness… our awakening, full enlightenment and living ascension… is affecting our mental, emotional and physical bodies, pulling us all ways and putting us through some uncomfortable and painful times… Our body consciousness, body, mind and spirit is finding a new balance… It is most important neither to fight nor to give in… but to trust that everything is all so perfect…This is our journey… so choose to enjoy it…     Awakening & Integration Symptoms…   Physical… Aches and pains in the joints, especially neck, shoulders and backHeat sensations… (Beyond the menopause)Feeling cold, feeling hotDizzy and shakyRinging in the earsVertigoNauseousRed patchy skin, especially the faceItchy skinSevere Scalp Flaking (Cerebral Fluid Escape)(Invisible)bug bitesExhaustionTiredWaking up a lotHeadaches and MigraineStomach achesIndigestionNo appetiteExtremes of diarrhea and constipationEating a lotNot eating a lotHeart palpitationsIrregular heartbeats   Emotional… CryingDeep SadnessConfusedNervousnessPassionless   Mental… AnxiousIntense DreamingLonelinessNot thinking straightLosing wordsDepressed   My suggestions for more comfort… Lots of sleep, naps through the day if possibleGentle walks in natureDrink lots of fresh waterConsciously breathe in the new energy into your physical body, especially in painful areas…Less Caffeine… coffee, tea and alcoholDiet of protein, good fats, fruit and vegSoaking the body in Epsom salts and lavender oil   My WordPress friends and myself also co-created a Free E-Book back in 2014, a selection of our true awakening that you can download and read by clicking on the picture below.     Barbara Franken… Creative Visionary & MasterCreatorInspiring New Energy Consciousness     My true Love Story: Your Magnificent Self… A Journey to Freedom.For more detailed information about my Awakening and Integration I published by true magical journey, exploring Who I AM with the help of nine Elemental Beings and expand from a world of fear, struggle and limitation into a New Energy Consciousness of love, grace and freedom.
