Week 5 Healing Anger & Hurt Homework Class Jennifer Hadley Friday, October 5, 2012 Opening Prayer We begin with a holy breath, a holy breath of love and gratitude, yes. We begin with this holy breath of love and gratitude, so grateful and so thankful that now is the time of our healing. Taking this breath, we're grateful and thankful that we can say, yes, yes, to our healing, yes, to the opening and the expansion. We're grateful and we're thankful to open our hearts and minds to the power and the presence of love which is our true identity. Calling upon divine assistance, we partner up. Breathing deeply, we invoke an awareness of the higher Holy Spirit self. And we are so grateful to invoke divine grace into our heart and mind. Breathing deeply, we're saying, yes, to the love. Love is the healer. Love is the only healer, so we are invoking an awareness of love into our heart, recognizing that the kingdom is here. It’s preinstalled. It is our true identity and we're consciously disconnecting from any false identity that's been created, or treasured, or cherished. We're releasing the false and stepping into the real, the true. We're so grateful and thankful right now to open and accept our healing, to allow it. We place onto the holy altar fire of divine love the meaning that we have made of things. Healing Anger & Hurt Homework 4 We're placing onto the holy altar fire of divine love any upset, any hurt, any fear, any doubt, any worry, anything that we have been disturbed by. All the negative meaning that we have made of things, the interpretations that we have made of things that no longer serve us, we're placing them on the altar. We are grateful and willing to relinquish treasuring that which has no power, only the power that we give it. And we step into the true power which is love, the true identity which is love. We're grateful and thankful to remember ourselves right now. We open our hearts and minds to the power and the presence of true love, true peace. And we're grateful to share the benefits with everyone because we're one with them. In grace and gratitude, we let it be and so it is. Amen. Amen, Amen, Amen. Healing Anger & Hurt Yes, yes, yes. Oh, so Healing Anger & Hurt, I have to say this is something that I am now an expert in. You wouldn't think to make a career of this, or to be an expert in it, but I am at this point in time I am very, very grateful that I have this expertise. And it is such a treasure to me, such a profound treasure to me that I am able to declare that I have been able to heal so much. And I'm still healing it. I definitely am. There are times when I can feel oh, yes, there is still something there to heal. And I'm grateful that I can heal it and I can share the benefits with everyone. This is a tool for you, sharing the benefits of your healing with everyone. You might not think of it as a tool. A Course in Miracles calls it extension, extending the love, extending the healing, extending the awareness. But what it is, is it’s recognizing that we are not alone. We are one. We are united. And that's our healing because that oneness, that unification is the love. Love is all. With Jennifer Hadley 5 And when we remember that we are divinely connected to everyone and we are not separate, that is our healing. And throughout the course of our day it’s very challenging to remember that we're united, to remember that we're one. And the ego thought system, of course, as you all know is all about creating a deep sense of separation. So, it is our responsibility, and we talked a lot about responsibility last night and why it’s critical to our healing. You cannot heal the mind that suffers. You cannot heal the anger and the hurt and the depression and the fear and the worry and the doubt, you cannot heal any of that unless you're willing to take responsibility. I'd like to share just a few things about responsibility, because I know that I used to have a distorted understanding of responsibility. I was looking at it through the ego thought system, through the eyes of the egotistical. And with that point of view, responsibility seems like blame. It seems like blame, or it seems as though it is something onerous, a heavy weight. But when seen through the eyes of the spirit, when we're able to look at it through the lens of love, to see clearly, to know clearly, to feel and hear clearly, when we're on this path of personal mastery, spiritual mastery, masterful living, then we are able to value the purification which gives us the ability to see and know and feel and hear clearly. And when we begin to heal and hear clearly, know clearly, have clear perception, then we can see that taking responsibility is an act of love and love is our healer. If we are able to open our mind to begin to recognize that our experience in this world of form, of density, the 3D human experience is, indeed, a projection of the mind. And how do we know it’s a projection of the mind? Because it changes all the time. That which is real, eternal and infinite is changeless. But in the temporal world, the world of time and space, everything is constantly changing. Why is it constantly changing? It’s because our Healing Anger & Hurt Homework 6 mind is constantly holding different thoughts and so we have different experiences because we're holding different thoughts. This is one of the key things that David shared last night. We move into the space that I am responsible for my experiences. No one is to blame. I am responsible. Blame is of the ego. So, if we're in blame mode, we're totally identified with ego. If we're in the mode of taking responsibility, and we can't assign responsibility to other people, no, there's only our own responsibility. So, if we're in blame, whether we're blaming ourselves or blaming someone else, we're totally identified with the ego. But when we are in responsibility, we're aligned with the spirit, because in that place of responsibility, there's an opening for healing. What We Think Is Projected onto the World Catch this. This is so critical to understand. All the effects, this is the world of effects, the 3D world of effects, all of the effects of our projections, all of the effects of our mistakes, so when we think negative thoughts and project them into the world, what’s created is our experience, whether we're projecting loving thoughts or negative thoughts. That's how our experience is created. All of the effects of our mistakes, of our negative thoughts will disappear, ultimately. And the sooner we correct, we course correct, we begin to correct the mind and value that which is truly valuable. As soon as we value that we can truly purify the mind, and that we have this incredible partner in the higher Holy Spirit self, the great I Am presence, the Holy Spirit, the Christ presence, it’s all one, we have this incredible partner. We don't have to figure out how to have a healing, but we do have to cultivate a commitment to being willing to have a healing. We have to cultivate a commitment to being willing to have a healing. With Jennifer Hadley 7 This is the little willingness that's required. And then as we cultivate that little willingness, it grows into a total willingness, and a total healing accompanies the total willingness. In this world of effects, there is the illusion of free will. And it’s a journey to align with divine will and to no longer value having separate will, which can mis-create and make mistakes. As we purify the mind and think only the thoughts we think with God, the thoughts of love, then we're totally in tune with divine guidance and inspiration and intuition in every moment, literally.
