Listening to those Voices
"You are living in a dream world! Life is not a dream and you have to be rational and practical."
Do you know that voice? When you begin walking on your authentic path, this voice is LOUD! There is a real fear of the unknown.
However, as I have been on my true authentic path for the past 3 years, I have actual evidence that living a life that is from your heart and spirit can and does work, although not always as we first might believe it should. Lol!
So when that voice continues to whisper in my ear and flashes of doubt soon fill my head, I can immediately go into "hopeless."
However! I have discovered a beautiful trick that works and I want to share with you today.
When the voice is talking to you with fear, simply listen and sit with the discomfort without judgment. The most important thing is to let the voice be HEARD as you would hear a child.
As I continue to work with The Peace Treaty, I am becoming more conscious of these voices being children. They are us as children, who have become quite bossy and think they know best. However, they speak out of fear and as we all do when we are feeling fear, they just want to be heard.
So next time you hear the voice telling you, "You are foolish and living a dream!" don't fight it or try to put it out of your mind. Decide to listen fully as a kind, loving and wise adult without judgment.
When the voice is done talking you might say and say with gratitude in your heart, "Yes, I hear you. It does seem scary. I am the brave adult now, who is ready to take that risk!"
Courage and joy,
Rain

Hi Sarah and Erica,
Oh yeah, there is a story there.... Hmmm. Without writing it all down, maybe you would be interested in listening to an interview or two? Here are two where I spoke more about my life story...
This one is focused on family and my transition:
or this one is my first interview about my transition:
I hope this helps...
If you would like to contact me more, email me at rain@authentictimes.com

I have another question for you, Rain, if you don't mind.
I'm currently in a place where I know I'm not living authentically and this lack of alignment gnaws on my mind every moment of every day. Sometimes I make little leaps and do things that are in alignment with me, but they feel terrifying and crazy... it's proving challenging to stabilize an authentic lifestyle.
Did you go through something similar, and was there a moment when you took a total leap into the waters of your own truth, knowing that there was no going back? Or is it more like a constant process... like getting into the water from the side, then getting out, then getting back in, until you're eventually swimming and loving it.

Thanks, Rain.
I'll try this.
Would you be willing to give more details about your authentic life? What separates it from the life you were living before? How did you find your way to it?

Aajonus doesn't look so healthy and doesn't make much sense here. The doctors seem really ignorant too.

Part 1: I have used Liquid Zeolites for detoxing lead from doing stained glass art for a few years and MSM for ease of movement in the joints. Both worked great.
Part 2: I have used-
Aged garlic extracts/ immune tonic and system cleanser
Anti-Par...
If someone wants to control everybody and I am allowing everyone to be free you mean?
I am sure there will be willing followers for whatever. Some people like to follow orders.
This has always been one of my healthier alternatives. However, usually our pizzas were done on French bread. Not the best healthy food mind you, but much better than restaurant pizzas!
