When we speak about aligning individual and universal patterns of energy, it is essential to know how to competently manage energy as referenced in the previous blog, but it is also important to be able to recognize the differences in how the higher and lower energies/selves manifest. This level of consciousness helps to maintain being “in the flow” as well as helping us see more readily when we fall out of it facilitating our return to a higher state.

*These are ideals to be moved toward, not end points that are achieved by most mere mortals. At best, expect to experience a growing ability to “be there,” know when you have slipped out, and rejoin the flow ASAP.
**Omit self-judgments if you notice these states. We are always learning and we need to continually adopt a persistent attitude of kindness towards the self!
