Part 3 of 3:

The Medicine Wheel - or more properly translated, "sacred hoop" - is an ancient symbol that has been used for guidance, healing and balance by Native Americans for in excess of 10,000 years. In this informational video series, you'll learn how to understand and use the Medicine Wheel, according to the Lakota (Sioux) tradition. The narrator for this video is unique as he is a trained doctor in conventional Western medicine, and is also a Lakota medicine man, who has descended from a long line of medicine men.

I chose this video for this week's Saturday Spirit Movie Series because the season has shifted from winter to spring at last. This particular time of the year can be ungrounding because Earth in our area is waking up from her winter hibernation, and to do so she is detoxing, creating a state of upheaval - old patterns of thought, behavior and resources that no longer serve us in the new vibration we are waking up to are being detoxed and thrown off of our energy. As result of the environment around you shifting, you may feel like you are on a rollercoaster physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually.

The Medicine Wheel provides an ancient, complex and deeply spiritual tech for achieving balance, centering and grounding in life. Stumbling through the transition from winter to spring, we need to embrace the philosophy of the Medicine Wheel now more than ever.

Food For Thought:

Are you feeling imbalanced in your life right now - perhaps because of the seasons, workload, or a draining relationship?

How do you think the Medicine Wheel sheds light on why you feel this way, and what will you do to center yourself?

Comment below and let me know how it feels and what you think of the movie!

Spiritual Reality - The Journey Within

Happy Saturday everyone!

I've been channeling all day and Spirit has asked me to do a new blog series every other Saturday on free online movies that raise your vibration.

Saturday is a day of rest and reconnecting - with ourselves, and socially with friends, family and so on. It's a great day to re-evaluate the health of your own authentic energy (away from the 9-5 grind), how happy you are, take in a new experience to feed your soul's hunger for love, joy, expression and expansion.

Usually, we use this kind of day to retreat to either a small weekend vacation away or a stay-cation at home to recharge; what better time to curl up with a movie? But instead of turning on the boob-tube, more and more people are electing to browse Youtube or Hulu, to escape brainwashing commercials and hearbreaking news reports and find something that elevates your frequency or stirs your soul. In this case, I've done the searching work for you.

Grab your popcorn and tea, dim the lights, and put it on fullscreen!

So here's my review of my first choice:

Spiritual Reality - The Journey Within

I highly recommend this movie because it uses computer animation to give the most clear and visual representation of the mechanics, effects and purpose of meditation and energetic life that I have witnessed to date. It is framed to be understood by absolute beginners, and offers fresh and clear insight to advanced lightworkers as well.

The explanations are sprinkled with some buddhist and vedic philosophy, but without being dedicated to one point of view or having a religious air. This is important in my opinion, because it allows us to absorb the techniques and understand the benefits of meditation and energywork without becoming egoically attached to being "right" because you're following the "right way" per se. I'm a spiritual but not religious person, so this is important to me, personally.

It also proceeds to describe advanced concepts such as cosmic energy (aka. prana, chi, reiki), 3rd eye activation, astral projection, crown chakra opening, interdimensional travel, ascended masters, and even what happens before we incarnate. This is all done smoothly and succinctly, even a 3rd grader could grasp these descriptions. Enjoy!

Food For Thought:

Imagine if this movie was shown in high schools during health class. Close your eyes for a moment and really envision this.

How do you think this would change our children, communities, countries and world?
