Understanding Yeshua: We have decided to add a section on Yeshua as it is important to any spiritual development. For those of us on a spiritual path it is valuable to understand Yeshua from a different perspective. Even those of a different faith will find these articles useful, all is not what it seems. Many see Yeshua as belonging to Christianity only, this is far from the truth.

We will do our best to share our understandings. Having this in mind our articles are to stimulate thoughts in new directions but mostly inward. They are not intended to correct or change our own views but to help us see more, differently and most importantly improve and refine.

Regardless of what religion a person is, when they talk of the creator the most high it should stimulate love in the reader or listener. We always talk from the perspective of the spirit within, more importantly, the Light within.

We hope to explain things in a different way, not copied or repeated from the net, free from religious dogma. It is very important to question what we write, to comprehend. Sometimes for our readers to find the answers they seek, we will leave things open ended. There is reason for this as we will explain at the end of the article.

All we wish to do is share, we ask our readers to decide if they accept or not, believe or not. No one should believe everything they read, especially on the net. Our soul intention is to help those who are looking to find their light within. The light holds all that we need.

Yeshua has never wanted us to worship him nor to put him on a pedestal. What he would like us to do is understand and know we are part of something far more majestic. He would not want us to treat him different from any other. He came with a task, a mission.

Yeshua does not care about colour of our skin, our religions, he would not care about what we have or don’t have. He is here for something far more important. He is on a rescue mission.

However, Yeshua is not just a man, he is a vessel, a vehicle, a jug, a roadmap, an escape plan. Yeshua is the teacher of the West.

The light now being transferred from the East to the West as symbolised by the star of Bethlehem. Many of the lessons that Yeshua taught have been hidden away but we all carry those lessons, they are within.

Yeshua was sent to bring us home. Our Heavenly Father and Divine Mother have sent him to accompany us on our return journey. His lessons are to teach us to raise our vibrations, to liberate us from this physical plane, to release the hold of the physical that may trap us on the spiritual planes.

To give us the ability to overcome physical desires and dogmas that will trap us in the lowest densities. The vibration he brings will strengthen us, protect us and guide us in times of darkness and despair. This vibration brings knowledge, wisdom, peace.

For those who wish, after every article we write we ask for a few moments, for a reader to look for their own light. It is simple we close our eyes and imagine a beautiful white light over our hearts.

This is our diamond light, it covers our body, healing, helping and creating peace. We see this light in those that we care for, love, family, those troubled or lost, sick or hurt. Yes, even our so-called enemies. Feel the Peace.

We then ask our readers to read our article again and see how it feels. As this light builds, we will feel different, see different. We may begin to perceive the guidance of Yeshua’s vibration to illuminate.

But this is only the beginning.

Find your light within.

Signs: There are signs all around us but seeing them is a different matter. I guess it requires our willingness to see them, understand them and hopefully learn from them that can determine so much.

We have to have an open mind otherwise they can simply be dismissed like so many other thoughts we have each and every day.

Researchers estimate the number of thoughts per day we have varies, with some suggesting around 6,200 to 70,000, but other studies and experts propose a more common range of 12,000 to 60,000.

As you can imagine the vast majority of these thoughts fall to the wayside as other thoughts enter our minds at any given time.

Bereavement can often open us up to periods of reflectivity some positive and some not so. But during this period we often find that we can experience synchronicity.

Synchronicity is the experience of two or more events that are meaningfully related but have no apparent causal connection. The concept was developed by Carl Jung who defined it as “meaningful coincidence” and suggested that these events are a sign of an underlying, deeper connectivity in the universe.

It’s a belief that spiritual signs whatever format they may be experienced by the individual can lead to profound personal and emotional changes.

This may include increased self-awareness, empathy, intuition, and inner peace, as well as a shift in priorities and relationships.

Like everything there is an alternative experience such as feeling confused, anxious or spiritual distress, especially when individuals begin to question their beliefs or feel a sense of loss.

The experience can manifest in a variety of ways, such as heightened sensory perceptions, synchronicities, and vivid dreams.

For myself I have found signs a lovely experience and during periods of bereavement of which I have had a few over the years, found them comforting to say the least.

It has to be said that during these periods we have to remain grounded to ensure we are only being given positive signs. Spiritual safety is paramount!

For myself it started with seeing the same time or numbers 11:11 on my watch or clock. Numbers that had no connectivity to a time when someone had passed in my life but my attention was always peaked when I would look at my phone or watch and notice the same numbers appear.

I guess I was being shown the numbers to see if through the thousand of thoughts passing through my brain each day I was alert to random moments synchronicity.

The more I noticed the more these signs developed. They never stayed the same they would morph into other things over time.

Signs

I have had robins, butterflies, white feathers and a wide range of other things appear when I was thinking of people or a little down and they would catch my attention. At times like these it would pick me up and put a smile on my face.

Recently I have had things happen with my phone. Songs would play on my phone even though it was locked and in my pocket and I had not recently played music so it wasn’t like it was the last thing I had done on my phone.

I wrote lyrics and used a computer program to add music to it. The song was inspired by my late mother’s dementia and is called “I don’t know why I feel this way”.

It is saved in my mobile phones files folder and can only be accessed by searching through a long list of files. Over a period of time it has suddenly started playing on its own in my pocket without any interaction by me. I always smile when it happens as I believe it’s a sign she is looking over me.

I recall not long after my brother had passed away something happened with my phone. It was a hot day and I was keeping myself busy putting new garden furniture together. I was determined to complete the job before my family came home from school and work.

I was stuck on a fiddly part of the construction when my phone kept ringing in my pocket. I let it ring and ring until it stopped ringing. However it started ringing again and without answering it I recall saying please leave me alone I will call you back later.

The phone stopped ringing and I carried on working until I heard a ping on my phone. Curiosity got the best of me. I put my tools down pulled my mobile phone out of my pocket to see who had been calling.

When I looked the person had text saying “no worries I will call you later”, which surprised me as I hadn’t text them. When I looked at my phone properly my phone had text the person saying “ Sorry I am busy right now I will call you later”.

How could that have happened I asked myself when I had a locked phone in my trousers pocket!

I relayed this story to my younger brother later that week and he asked one of his mates who worked in telecommunications. Apparently on the iPhone it does have set responses that you can activate on your phone if you are busy.

I checked and he was right but none of which matched that which was sent from my phone that day.

I truly believe that someone was looking over me and sent the message for me. When it happened I was busy feeling stressed and recall saying leave me alone will you.

A call for help came in a way I least expected it too and a sign that we are not truly alone when we need help the most.

Yogic Hot Chocolate: This article has been a long time coming but we thought that we would explain the spiritual mechanics and contradictions between Yoga and “Cacao ceremonies”. Our aim is always to inform and let the reader decide what they want to do. It is unfair not to share with the participants the negative effects that may happen in their own minds. We are going to ask this question.

Can a cup of hot chocolate really open the heart?

Firstly, we need to know why a person wishes to participate in one of the ceremonies. What does opening the heart really mean, what do we want from it. What do we expect to happen. Do we want enlightenment or have a happier life. Are we looking for a spiritual connection. Truth is cacao ceremonies will point us in the wrong way. What many of us are really looking for is the restoration of our Divine Connection. This is an inward journey and no amount of hot chocolate will change this.

Secondly, Shamanic practices have no place in a yoga studio. The owners can do what they like but the path of yoga is very different. We would say quite the opposite. Also, why drink cacao over say a cup of black or green tea? Why do we need a ceremony? Can we really blend the shamanic path with the path of unity? Are there any dangers? Is the teacher aware of the spiritual dangers. Can the students see what is taking place in the spiritual realms.

Let’s investigate. Most of us are aware of the benefits of dark chocolate but can it really change our behaviour? Cacao being high in polyphenols has many health benefits but then again so do many fruits, vegetables, nuts and berries. What about the improved heart health from polyphenols.

We may be onto something here.

We also have flavonoids that support cardiovascular health. Is this going to open our hearts. Can a physical drink open our hearts spiritually. Mmmm! It must be the nitric oxide production, now we are getting somewhere! Increasing blood flow, oxygen from the heart, magnetism influencing our torsion fields. Surely, we can increase blood flow and blood health from fruit, berries, vegetables and fish.

Based on that assumption every time we eat the above were opening the heart!

Let us all remind ourselves, just where Lord Krishna told us to drink hot chocolate to open our hearts. Where is it in Patanjali’s teachings? It is not there, we are blending paths, and this is dangerous as we will explain. Unfortunately, in a lot of yoga studios alarming practices are conducted as gimmicks or to make money without understanding the consequences.

Don’t forget how serotonin lowers inhibitions or endorphins and dopamine improve mood- temporarily by creating emotional comfort.

We could also consider the odic force of the food but there must be something more in the background, OH the ceremony. Does our teacher really know what risky practices they are opening us up to? Maybe they do but probably not!

How many of us would knowingly participate in a magic ceremony if we could see the dark spirits lurking in the shadows?

As we have always written and shared, a spiritual path cannot be blended, regardless of how much someone tells you they can. The path of the Yogi is complete opposite to the shaman, but why is this? How many of the general public know how shamanism works.

Shamanism is for the people of the middle and South Americas. That is their way. The life, culture, way of life and spiritual evolution is different to that of those incarnated into the West. Dependant on where we are born our spiritual paths are different, our minds are different. The energies are different; there are spiritual laws in place.

We will ask again, why does a cup of hot chocolate open the heart?

Does it really open the heart?

What we will write now will not be liked by many, but truth is the truth.

Shamans make a deal with the dark side to leave you alone at the expense of something far more valuable than we realise. They will tell you different but that is how it is.

It is the complete opposite to the Yogi who wishes to bring balance and harmony to your physical body and spirit within.

We cannot blend paths, the uninformed practitioner has no clue what is really happening.

What we have found and our experience of shamanism is very different. We have found it is the complete opposite to opening the heart, it closes. Making a deal with the dark side will not allow light into the heart. There is more, a lot more, if cacao is so useful in opening the heart why the ceremony. What does a ceremony do, what and who are we trying to attract, are our readers aware of what is being attempted.

The cacao is used to mask what is really happening in the unseen.

If we have closed the heart what is beginning to happen? In all yoga studios there is light and dark with the dark always in place waiting for their chance to infiltrate and inflict pain, problems or mental instability. The more “new age” tarot and angel cards and manifestations ceremonies etc we conduct in our studios the more chaos we will cause for the students and ourselves as teachers until we are of no use to the dark side and tossed aside.

Our intentions maybe good but messing with esoteric practices, especially shamanism will not end well. Yoga is to help us find our light not get lost in the dark.

These entities in our studios being fed by energy creation wait patiently. “It’s ok ill waft a bit of sage”. Sage won’t help you here! Turn off the lights and what happens, it gets dark quick. Shamanism and magic are complete opposite to yoga (this includes white magic).

Very simply, close off the light, then the dark can come close.

The shamanic practice becoming the point of change.

There are a lot more spiritual elements involved, our light, our safety mechanism has been dimmed, we have allowed the shaman to intercede. We have opened our heart but turned the light off. Where there is light there can be no dark.

Be careful what we invite into our auras!

Would we really make a deal with dark spirits?

At what expense!

We must always be aware of some of the small changes that will occur in those who organise and do these ceremonies. The person may all of a sudden become all knowing apparently, they may change externally that is minute or not noticed but there will be small traits that will arise. Internally of course, the chaos is within. They may profess to be spiritual and lead us down a good path but really, they are leading us down a blind alley.

Besides, no one should follow the leader. We should follow the law.

Learn the laws to make your own decisions.

All the time the entity that has infused with participant or teacher, using them to lead others astray. Look for the traits that are not of an open heart. Listen to vibrations in the voice. Look for the interactions with others, are we arguing with others? Is it my way or the highway? Do we feel lost, frustrated or off key. Has what we shared in these ceremonies become gossip, the dark are no keepers of trust.

We should observe. These entities feeding all the time, getting stronger and stronger the more our hearts close, changing a person so we no longer know them. The more ceremonies we do the more strength we give these unseen spirits. It is up to the reader if they believe us or not.

Our yoga classes have been hijacked and misused.

It is not only yoga studios where these ceremonies take place.

Before we take part in any cacao ceremony know what is happening in the unseen, does our hot chocolate really open the heart? A magic ceremony is used to infuse the cacao and to try and force open the heart through ingestion, poisoning, masking sensations. Our blood has now changed giving temporary elations. Good spirit does not work this way. Our own free will being our own downfall.

What we will experience will be synthetic (see our article Wisdom, knowledge, symbols, danger). These elations leading to misery. The more we participate the more we will close the door of our hearts. We believe we need more ceremonies, thus creating more pain the more we try to open them. The chaos in the mind unseen.

We cannot pay another to open our hearts, we cannot buy God, it comes from the light within.

To open our hearts, we do not need to rely on a shaman or external forces or spirits that will bring pain into our lives. We all carry the Divine Spark within, the spark waiting to be kindled and by connecting to our own light, we change, grow and evolve. The loss and disconnection decease and once again we feel our Divine connection, yoga, union, yoked. We are no longer lost!

There is a safer and simpler way and begins the process of self-healing and inward journey.

Place our hand on our heart. We simply say,

I AM LIGHT

We see a beautiful light surrounding our hearts our bodies,

those that we love, care for, sick, troubled, lost, our so-called enemies,

let that light grow until it guides our thoughts, actions and deeds.

Look at all those around us and see that same beautiful light within.

It will grow, we will feel it, others will see it.

Others will feel it.

Everything changes for the better.

Wisdom, Knowledge, Symbols, Dangers: There is much knowledge coming forward at this time. There are many reasons, especially as the chaos on our planet seems to grow ever stronger. This being said we have always warned our readers about using and applying knowledge from the internet. This article is written with the intention of helping the reader discern and maybe take a step back before practicing that what we may think is a good idea.

At the time!

What we are referring to is “Esoteric” knowledge or so-called secret knowledge. We must also add into this “conspiracy theories” not because they may be right or wrong but about the unseen information that can send a person down a rabbit hole of pain.

Firstly, we cannot teach a person to be wise. How may times have we given good advice not for it to be heeded or not listened to the wisdom of another.

The internet can be a great place for knowledge and in the same breath can be misleading, dangerous and omit many things that would help us think differently. An example of this is Kundalini yoga classes. It is impossible to teach Kundalini yoga in a Western class environment. You cannot teach Kundalini when money has been exchanged. These are snippets of knowledge, snippets of something far bigger.

As always, we are not going to write anything that may lead a person into spiritual dangers. We could write much, but again without the proper grounding, understandings, these pieces of abstract information can cause chaos for those who try and apply them.

These dangers are ever present in what we read and pictures that we look at. Over the years we have helped many who have been given information from the use of drugs that induce temporary physic abilities. This information ultimately causes pain and suffering for the user. Only having clarity once the influence is lifted off through spiritual healing or removal (exorcism).
Again, fragments of knowledge given without the warnings, dangers or disruptions that arise from use. The quest for knowledge can be a treacherous road with many pitfalls and charlatans on the way.

Healing Experiences: I attended the Healing Days event at Crosby Library which had a range of healing professionals on hand ( no pun intended) to help the steady flow of visitors attending the session upstairs at the Library.
***
From old to young all were welcome with a friendly smile and a cup of tea or coffee and a slice of homemade cake.
***
It was a friendly atmosphere with many attendees during the four plus hours which was open for all wishing to take advantage of the healing services available.
***
It can be a struggle for some to attend such gatherings particularly some of elderly who arrived during the morning some using walking sticks. As much for the stairs up to the function room but just as much for those wanting to share their thoughts, feelings, possibly for the first time.
***
I can honestly say all left looking happy and content.
***
I myself didn’t try everything available but I am happy to share my thoughts on the treatments I did try below.
***
I had my first Magnetic Healing session with C on Saturday morning.
***
C talked me through the process i.e. what he would be doing what I might feel during and how I would know when the process had been completed.
***
I have to admit I wasn’t sure what to expect but as soon as it started the heat generated from C’s hands was very hot as it radiated around my head. As he was doing the healing I kept feeling the word lava.
***
I could feel immense heat but not in an uncomfortable way. It was very relaxing indeed and I soon closed my eyes as he moved his hands around the front and back areas of my head.
***
I could feel tension radiating from my left shoulder blade as he worked his healing hands. It felt like it was lifting as it hadn’t been there before I sat down.
***
I could still feel the heat like a band around my head as it continued to work. C informed me that it would continue to run through my body for 24 hours.

Ask For Help And You Shall Receive It: Following on from my recent article regarding Angels the following is loosely connected to it. I had decided to take my dogs for a walk to clear my head as much to give them the exercise they needed. I took my usual walk to the top of my road, took a left and stopped at their favourite stop.
***
It was within a few yards of the local bus stop where a patch of grass leading to a tall tree was and where they always head for on our walks. I looked around as the dogs did their daily constitutionals, I noticed an elderly woman looking towards me.
***
She was at the bus stop. I naturally assumed she was merely looking down the road beyond me waiting for the bus to arrive. I did my civic duty and tidied the dog’s business in an appropriate biodegradable bag. It was then that I realised the woman was looking at me and trying to get my attention.
***
I walked towards her as she stepped away from the bus stop and asked me for some help. I gladly stopped to help in any which way I could. She asked if I knew if the buses that stopped at the bus stop, she was standing at, went in a particular direction. I explained that it did not, and she was quite some distance away from the nearest bus route she needed to be on.
***
I decided to take her back towards the local hospital and point her in the right direction, so I replied follow me I will show you the right direction. We headed up towards the traffic lights crossed over to the other side of the road and back towards the entrance of the local hospital. It transpired that she had been at the hospital for an appointment but couldn’t find a taxi to take her home and somehow found her way to the bus stop near my walking route.I gleaned from her that she was in her late 80’s and had an appointment for a scan that morning and was heading back home to her elderly brother whom she cared for.

We would like to say thank you to the team at Concordia Clinic for treating those who have been referred through LifeBalancestudio. The international students who are now at the end of a very long course (with several years of study already under their belts) once again took care of us all.

The final phase of their training which is for advanced practitioners is the Tui Na phase. (Chinese physiotherapy). Tui Na works for skeletal and muscular problems as well as a whole host or other problems that we have not got around to speaking about just yet, we will though!

The team have had returning patients and sportswomen. Julie and Anne who both represent Team GB Dragon boat Crew and Amathus Dragon boat and Canoe Club in Liverpool.
The team also treated those with repetitive strains, wear and tear and spine problems to name a few. The treatment can be very different from Western medicine and promotes balance and harmony in the body. As you can see from the pictures, there is no need to get undressed and very non invasive. Tui Na promotes energy flow around the body to speed up and aid in healing.
The final clinic day this year is Saturday the 1st of November!

If any of our readers would like to attend then please come and speak with us on our next Day of Healing on the 25th of October where we can then refer those who need or want treatment to the clinic. Each treatment is 45 mins long and is completely free. The team will accept a donation if offered. You can also get in touch with us via any of our socials to find out more.

We have referred many to the clinic over the years and they have helped many. In a lot of cases going above and beyond which we are very grateful for. Should any of our readers know someone who would benefit, put themselves last or in pain then get in touch with us. The team will be very glad to help and we can refer to Rob and James.

Astral Travel Open If You Are: I can’t say I have ever experienced Astral Travel though I was one occasion asked had I been Astral Travelling by a Palliative Care Nurse on the way back from a funeral reception. I have to admit at the time I had never heard of such a thing, and my only response was, “not that I am aware of”.
***
Editors note: Before Greg continues with his article, we feel it is important that we give the spiritual warnings and safety brief. We do not encourage anyone to try and Astral travel regardless of what someone on the internet is telling us. We never force Astral travel, if it happens organically then fine but trying to force it or practice will lead those who try in dangerous territory. We will never know what we may pick up or bring back with us at a minimum. If you wish to know more about this then come and speak with us on the next LifeBalance Day of Healing.
***
I was aware at the time of the term Out of Body Experience (OBE) or Near-Death Experience (NDE) but Astral Travel was certainly a new one to me although I am aware they a near enough the same thing.
***
Some ancient writers described experiences or beliefs that would be recognized as out-of-body experiences (OBEs).
***
Plato theorized that the soul is separate from the body and can survive death, which is the basis of the concept of the soul migrating after death, but this is a philosophical belief and was not a description of a personal experience.
***
Plotinus’s writings include descriptions of out-of-body phenomena, and he wrote about such experiences. His philosophy emphasized the soul’s connection to a higher spiritual realm, and his experiences and teachings are considered foundational to Neoplatonism, a school of philosophy that explores such spiritual journeys.
