The Path to My Heart

Tools, insight and wisdom for the newly awakened

What’s Inside – Welcome Message
Newly Awakened and Questioning Reality?

You’re in the right place! Experiencing freedom while living on a prison planet has been a long-time goal of mine.
- How to be in the world but not of it.
- How to remain centered in the storm.
- How to discern truth from lies.
It’s been quite a journey. I share with you my blog which contains insights I’ve gained along The Path to my Heart which I hope will be of benefit to you. It’s also a place for me to share my experiences with healing negative beliefs, ending vicious cycles, facing fear and allowing negative emotions to surface without judgment.

Without healing and completing these things, you can not be free.

Please join me if you are interested in finding your own truth and a possibility for lasting healing!

Creativity has Changed my Life

Hello everyone!

As many of you know from my past posts, I love rock tumbling. It’s a great hobby, lots of fun and always gives me something to look forward to. I love discovering the treasures held within each individual rock. Some are surprisingly beautiful after they are all polished up and shiny. I also love to make orgonite using different metals and crystals mixed in resin. The exciting news is, I have recently combined my two creative endeavors into a third one!

All Things With God . . .

With God anything is possible. Without God, well it’s a rougher road to travel and it gets really exhausting. My experience tells me this is true. I’m not referring to the God of religion, but more of a higher power, creator God. It feels very important for me to get this lesson, the sooner the better, as it will directly impact my future. Usually, whether of not we are aware, this is the case. We receive a lesson or an opportunity to incorporate a learning into our lives that will have a direct influence on future events. The trick is being awake enough to realize this could happen.

Polished River Rocks – Finally!

It’s been three months since purchasing my rock tumblers. I started out with some gemstones that were included with one of my purchases. Then I moved onto river rocks I found in the Rea Brook river that runs right behind my home. I thought: Why not? Let’s check out what’s in there! First I picked out a lot of quartzite, mainly from the Stiperstones in Shropshire, UK. I also found some other stones with some potential color – which it was really hard to tell since the stones were very dirty. I used my ‘treasure finding’ eyes to pick up rocks that looked like they had potential to turn into cool looking polished stones.

Creativity Abounds!

I’ve been having a blast creating really neat stuff! For the life of me I can’t get over the new me. I’m beginning to realize that rewriting my story has had a bigger impact on my life than I could have ever imagined. For the past many, many years, I would have said that I’m not very creative. I’ve never found anything that grabbed me enough to care about doing as a hobby, well maybe besides writing blog posts and tweaking my website. People would ask me: “What is it you like to do?” My response would always be the same: “I have no idea.” I’d always wished that there was something for me to enjoy doing as a hobby. Well, I got my wish!

Loving Rock Tumbling

I am very excited to write this post and share with you my new adventure of rock tumbling! I have been in the process of rewriting my story, living day to day from a context that excites me and has me look forward with anticipation. My context is treasure hunting. I love shiny things, polished gemstones and rocks – always have! I loved geology since I was a kid and got a geology kit for one of my birthdays. I would take my little hammer and go to the beach, chiseling big rocks of granite. It was fun to explore and name the different elements. I also had a rock tumbler that was turned off due to the noise. But my love for rocks and gemstones never left me!

Treasure Hunting

What a great topic, especially since it’s the context for which I frame my life! I love adventure and exploring – in all areas. When treasure hunting for example, became the concept to frame my life – then anything and everything that happens, is directly related to the context – meaning it all has a hidden gem to be explored and found. Think of the possibilities and opportunities this brings!

Rewriting Your Story

I’ve been away from blog world for a bit – rewriting my story. Is it even possible to give yourself a brand new story, one that defines your present as well as your future? Why yes, it is! We made up the ‘old’ story to begin with through our limited beliefs and conditioning. What happened was, I got sick of hearing my own negativity at the effect of feeling helpless and powerless to make a difference.

What to do? – The Bystander Effect

I saw this video on a friend’s facebook page and it really made an impact, especially with what’s been going on in my life lately regarding speaking up and being authentic. Please watch the video – you won’t regret it!

Creating a Context for Your Life

I’ve been struggling with where to place my experience from last week, the one where I confronted a man’s actions of blatant disregard for property. (read more here) I can’t quite qualify it because it was very unlike me and I couldn’t stop myself. I know it happened for a reason, just not sure how or where it fits into my life at this time.

Triggering Event

The state of being awake and aware, building upon my last post about awareness, is a complete, embodied knowing that freedom of expression is possible. With this sense of freedom also comes less fear – and visa versa. My expression had taken a massive hit to the point of being completely shut down by the age of 14. It’s finally now just resurfacing and through many years of growth, there’s a solid foundation for it to stand upon.

Awareness is Power

We are told knowledge is power. That may be true, but I also feel awareness in its own right is also very powerful. I looked up Awareness and one definition was: conscious knowledge. I love that phrase, conscious knowledge. Have you ever experienced a time when you’ve heard yourself saying: Wow, I knew that, but now I actually get it! I myself have experienced this many times when I’ve been told something, and then somewhere down the line, lo and behold, I really get it! That knowledge has become conscious. Something inside has awakened.

Joy to the World

Not so much a late Christmas post, but more of a preview of what’s shown up unexpectedly for me. Sometimes I get really down. The truth, or rather my truth as I know it, can be burdensome. The war over consciousness is real and maintaining a semblance of peace and open-heartedness is difficult for me at times.

Claim it!

I was feeling a bit under the weather a few days ago, like I was coming down with something. I felt tired, had a bit of a sore throat, and I was getting weaker. I could actually feel and watch myself decline into the belief I was getting sick. A sudden, noticeable voice in my head came in and snapped me out of it. It told me I had the power to take charge of the situation and along with that came a knowing. I made a decision then and there to stop my decline and take matters into my own hands. I stated:

I claim my health!

What we Think we Know

As it turns out, not much. Back in the late 1980’s I participated in the Landmark Forum. It was a very powerful and transformative experience. The processes within the Forum, many developed by Werner Erhard in the 1970’s, provide effective teachings to help you face your fear in order to live life authentically. In one such experience, I got to see that there’s a lot we don’t know, most of which is beyond the scope of our imagination.

Bringing it Home
As the ascension process progresses, you may begin to notice slight changes in yourself or the people around you for no apparent reason. For example, symptoms like:
- shakiness,
- feeling displaced,
- unable to feel like oneself almost as if something’s missing
- confused, not thinking clearly
- not quite right

Divergence – Having to let go

People are going to do what they want regardless of what I think. Yes, I know this, but some intense force of urgency came over me a couple years ago and overruled my common sense: I tried my hardest to change people’s perceptions. Stupid? Well, yes. We’re getting into Einstein’s definition of insanity here: doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. Only recently have I felt a shift within. I had no choice but to give up and let go because continuing to hold on was insane.

Breaking Free from Imposed ‘Reality’

Piggy-backing onto my last post regarding organic vs artificial, let’s suppose, for example, we are all in a game, living on a game board. We can call it the Matrix, like the movie, or call it a simulation. The person who is ‘me = Donna’ is represented by my game piece, or avatar. I move around the game board square by square, believing I’m getting somewhere, but wait, almost like the game “Shoots and Ladders” (“Snakes and Ladders” in the UK) I land on a ‘shoot’ and down I go back where I started. Brush myself off, maybe next time if I’m lucky enough, I’ll land on a ‘ladder’ and climb because it feels better to climb.

Organic vs Artificial

As we move closer to true freedom, it truly is challenging to maintain equilibrium as the outer world is in the process of deconstructing that which is not organic. We have been living in an artificial construct, an un-reality that has been sold to us as the truth. I question everything now. The extent of our reality that is actually organic can sometimes be difficult to discern from the artificial.

Finding the Truth Within

Finding our inner truth can be challenging at the best of times. Add in fear, heightened emotions and living in ‘the age of information warfare’ – good luck! I don’t know about you, but the world seems louder to me. Time seems faster and there is so much going on. We are constantly being bombarded with loads of input – telling us what’s what out in the world – which even this information changes on a daily basis. What to do. How do we then, uncover the truth? How do we find our truth?

New Normal? Are we there yet?

May be good news for some, and bad news for others – but there is no new normal to be attained – there never was. You can not go backwards moving forward. This may be a scary thought for those who have been waiting patiently for things to level off to some sort of normalcy. What’s coming can not be stopped, nor will it appear ‘normal’ in any way, shape, or form.

What Really Matters in Life?

I was recently on a WordPress course called ‘Where is Your Audience Hiding?’ It was quite good and went deeper than I though it would. I had to look at what makes me unique, why am I different, and why would someone want to read what I write and who would that person be. We each had to write down a sentence for what we offer that’s unique and search that sentence on the internet. I searched: “How to make my spiritual growth easier.” The search results were all quite similar, but one in particular stood out, hence the title of this post.

The Bifurcation

One person’s perception of reality can vary greatly from another’s, however during this time of history, the division is becoming more and more pronounced. I’ve really noticed this on a large scale through a neighborhood group app (county wide) I joined. I find the topics very interesting and the opinions that are shared, sometimes quite shocking. It’s clear to me that humanity is experiencing a bifurcation: the division of something into two branches or parts, as the sharing on this app clearly demonstrates.

Learning Discernment: A Crucial Skill

The first counsel written over the gateway to the temple of Delphi, “Know Thyself” is an important element of good discernment. In my experience, there’s a direct correlation between the quality of discernment and how well we know ourselves. Having good discernment can help us see things with a clear eye and receive answers to questions like:

Ending Negative Self-Talk

Negative beliefs and self-talk are very destructive to ourselves and others, mostly because we believe these negative things we tell ourselves are true. This is mainly because we identify with them and use “I am” in front of things like being a burden, weak, not worthy, a mistake . . . It’s not true. You’re not a burden! Your negative thoughts are a burden – more likely. Wars are fought over beliefs. We would die for some of them, believing ourselves to be “right” to the death. Many times, we find these beliefs we suffer over aren’t even ours. They are ones we picked up from our parents, family, friends, teachers and the media.

Does God Exist? Eliminating the Barriers of Separation

Not so long ago, I realized my connection with God was tentative. I’m in no way religious, so I wasn’t worried about the wrath of God. I was a bit skeptical however, or maybe I had some unfinished business with Him. I knew about things like synchronicity, The Secret, The Law of Resonance, the Universe, etc., but my interest was mainly from a point of view: That’s just how things work here. It didn’t have anything to do with God.
