Self-Realization and Empowerment - Art of Detachment

Self-Realization and Empowerment - Art of Detachment: Self-Realization and Empowerment – The Art of Keeping Yourself Separate from Others › Spiritual Sciences - Mentoring for Self-Mastery and Personal Transformation

Deeper forms of self-awareness and empowerment come in being able to keep ourselves separate from everything around us, where we can perceive it in a more objective sense without reshaping it to conform to our thoughts and beliefs about it . . .

Self-Mastery: Metamorphosis, Self-Creation, and the Art of Becoming

Self-Mastery: Metamorphosis, Self-Creation, and the Art of Becoming: Self-Mastery: Metamorphosis, Self-Creation, and the Art of Becoming › Dr. Linda Gadbois: Spiritual Sciences - Mentoring for Personal Transformation

 The true meaning of what we call self-mastery is our ability to master our own nature and resume conscious control over our higher capacities for creating ourselves. The fact is we’re always in the process of creating ourselves in every moment based on what we enter into relationship with, blend with energetically, and become like in nature. The mind, like the body, is comprised of vibrating essence that’s undergoing a constant process of metamorphosis by exchanging subtle energy with everything around it. The mind is a combination of both spirit and matter, and while it coagulates into temporary forms and becomes somewhat fixed and habitual in nature, it still remains in a constant flux and flow within the same fixed patterns and tendencies. The mind is what constitutes the inner nature and essence of form, and is what gives it its character and personality which determines how it functions and behaves, and what type of stories it naturally participates in . . .

Self-Mastery: Learning How to Not be Affected by Others

Self-Mastery: Learning How to Not be Affected by Others: Self-Mastery: Learning How to Not be Affected by Others › Dr. Linda Gadbois: Spiritual Sciences - Mentoring for Personal Transformation › Mystery School Teachings

  Many of us spend our whole life a slave to the attitude, behaviors, and opinions of other people. We’re in a constant form of reaction from one moment to the next, beings jerked around like a puppet on strings, often crushed by a rude comment. If someone is hateful or sarcastic in some way towards us, it can throw us into a tailspin that can last for days, weeks, or even months. Someone with a bad attitude that’s also aggressive can outright terrify us, especially with all the mass shootings being staged and publicized around the world. Most people spend their entire life being shaped and determined by other people and the rules of society, usually without any direct awareness of how it’s happening or the reason why. Many people have completely lost touch with their soul and their real power to create in their life, and don’t even realize it . . .

The Importance of Working with an Ideal

The Importance of Working with an Ideal

 It's important for us to work with an "ideal" anytime we're consciously developing ourselves. An ideal is what you can think of as the best possibility for yourself, attained by actualizing latent potential in becoming the best you can be in every area of your life. This is similar to setting a goal as a vision for your life, or undertaking the process of transformation to a higher level of being. All creation, no matter what level we engage in, starts with a well-defined vision of what it is we're setting out to create . . .

How We can Actively Work in the World to Change and Evolve it to a Higher Level of Morality and Consciousness

How We can Actively Work in the World to Change and Evolve it to a Higher Level of Morality and Consciousness
These are very challenging times in terms of being able to maintain our focus and morality in a world that's gone insane. The only ones who truly make a difference are those who maintain a focus and give their attention fully to what the ideal or most beneficial situation would be right now for ALL people, not some or select groups . . .

The Eternal Nature of the Soul and the Illusion of Time and Space

The Eternal Nature of the Soul and the Illusion of Time and Space: In order to truly comprehend any idea, we have to start by defining the meaning of the terms being used to describe them. While we tend to think that words mean the same thing to everyone, this is never the case, so in order to form the model necessary to comprehend an idea in a new way, we have to first define the model. Whatever conceptual model we use to perceive something determines what we’re capable of seeing. While we have a tendency to think that eternity means living within time and space forever without dying, it actually indicates a higher plane that not only exists outside of the time-space dimension, but as what acts to compose and orchestrate the entire lower plane of time and space as the material world of natural phenomena . . .

Mind-Body Medicine: Developing a More Effective Style of Practicing by Employing Psychological Skills

Mind-Body Medicine: Developing a More Effective Style of Practicing by Employing Psychological Skills
 One of the most common mistakes we make when practicing medicine of any kind, is that we take a system that operates as a whole unit and we separate it into parts, and then proceed to treat only one part as if it’s independent of the system itself. We separate the mind from the body and approach the physical ailment in purely material terms without any awareness of what psychological and emotional effect we’re creating through our attitude and approach. Yet, just as all behavior comes as the product of emotions and thoughts, all biological processes and activities are also produced and influenced by the mind that serves to operate the body and give it life. Nowhere is this more readily demonstrated than in what we call the placebo effect which has been employed in numerous different ways and clearly demonstrates the power of the mind as beliefs has in producing distinct and specific effects in the body . . .

Understanding the Nature of Emotions and How We Create Reality Out of Unconscious States

Understanding the Nature of Emotions and How We Create Reality Out of Unconscious States: Understanding the Nature of Emotions and How We Create Reality Out of Unconscious States › Dr. Linda Gadbois › Spiritual Sciences - Mystery School Teachings

One of the most difficult things most of us are faced with, is learning how to control our own emotions. When we experience an emotional charge, it renders us unconscious in the most basic sense, causing an immediate reaction that comes without thinking or realizing what we're doing. People who are very emotional, tend to live out of constant dramas and delusions, allowing their thoughts to be run by their emotions, where they create their life out of a primarily unconscious state. The first step to self mastery comes in learning what emotions are, how to control them mentally, the natural relationship that exists between thoughts and emotions, and how to use your thoughts to generate correlating emotions intentionally . . .

How to Release and Erase Memories of People and Events

How to Release and Erase Memories of People and Events: How to Release and Erase Memories of People and Events › Dr. Linda Gadbois › https://drlindagadbois.com/how-to-release-and-erase-memories-of-people-and-events/

Memories are something that only exist in our mind as a mental construct that we make and then replay over and over due to the intense emotion associated with them. All of what becomes actual memory that we can vividly recollect in emotional detail years later comes from significant emotional events (SEE) that had a powerful impact on us in some way. These events and the memories we formed of them served to change us in the most fundamental sense, and as we continued to live out of them, they served to shape our identity and who we became because of them . . .

How Karma Provides Us with the Basis for Learning Life Lessons, Healing, and Self-Administering Our own Spiritual Evolution

How Karma Provides Us with the Basis for Learning Life Lessons, Healing, and Self-Administering Our own Spiritual Evolution: How Karma Provides Us with the Basis for Learning Life Lessons, Healing, and Self-Administering Our own Spiritual Evolution › Dr. Linda Gadbois

 While the Law of Karma can be interpreted several ways, based on who’s interpreting it and their level of spiritual knowledge regarding the universal laws that all life faithfully operates according to, the most basic way of looking at it in the practical sense is as the Law of Cause and Effect. Every action, no matter how great or small, produces an equal or greater reaction as a direct correspondence. All activity forms an energetic discharge which flows in a circular current, and always returns to the place it originated. This means the effect produced is of a similar nature and idea as what caused it. You can determine the cause of something by studying the effect it served to produce, because they’re always of the same nature. All life functions through rudimentary patterns that are whole ideas. An action of any kind is a form of expression that sets a whole pattern in motion, where whatever we “put out”, either immediately or eventually returns to us, where we experience it as “happening to us” by another or through a set of what appears to be natural circumstances

Realizing Your True Self and Embodying Your Power to Consciously Create Yourself

Realizing Your True Self and Embodying Your Power to Consciously Create Yourself: Realizing Your True Self and Embodying Your Power to Consciously Create Yourself › Dr. Linda Gadbois › Spiritual Sciences - Mystery School Teachings

The process of personal transformation (Alchemy) as a form of spiritual regeneration comes as a process that has two basic stages. The first stage is what’s often referred to as our psychological healing, where we shed our false ego built through our formative conditioning, and the second comes by learning how to employ the principles necessary for developing our self to a higher level of self-awareness and creativity. The first stage is necessary as a means of laying the proper foundation for creating ourselves through our ability to develop our true character from a fully conscious and self-aware state . . .

Moral Strength – The Power of Being Willfully Directed

Moral Strength – The Power of Being Willfully Directed: Moral Strength – The Power of Being Willfully Directed › Dr. Linda Gadbois › https://drlindagadbois.com/moral-strength-the-power-of-being-willfully-directed/

One of the most basic things we lack nowadays, and that's being intentionally taught-out of people. We have a tendency to glorify weakness, cater to mindless sensitivity and sentiment, and fail to recognize the spiritual power and significance of our own conscience and morality . . .

The Illusion of Thinking you can Wake other People Up

The Illusion of Thinking you can Wake other People Up: The Illusion of Thinking you can Wake other People Up › Dr. Linda Gadbois › https://drlindagadbois.com/the-illusion-of-thinking-you-can-wake-other-people-up/ 

One of the main themes playing out in society right now, especially among the spiritually oriented communities, is that it’s somehow their job to try an ‘wake people up’. The first and most immediate question that arises from this idea is what do they mean by wake people up? Wake them up to what? How is that idea being used? Wake them up to what’s really happening in the world at the covert and subliminal level? Wake them up to how it is they’re being hypnotized and their perception shaped by the media? Or wake them up in realizing their own higher soul and true identity as a higher, more divine being? Or perhaps, like most things in life it’s a combination of all of them, which come as a correlated series of events that bring new awareness and realizations . . .

Recognizing how You’re Programming Yourself to Create and Maintain the Life You’re Living

Recognizing how You’re Programming Yourself to Create and Maintain the Life You’re Living: Recognizing how You’re Programming Yourself to Create and Maintain the Life You’re Living › Dr. Linda Gadbois › Spiritual Sciences - Mystery School Teachings

I think one of the greatest lies that we've been taught is that we're not powerful in our own life. Very few people realize the power of their own thoughts and emotions in shaping their life experiences, or the fact that as they "think and emote", they're actually using one part of their mind to program another part on what to create as an experience . . . .

How to Become Aware of Yourself through Your Reaction to Everything Else

How to Become Aware of Yourself through Your Reaction to Everything Else: How to Become Aware of Yourself through Your Reaction to Everything Else › Dr. Linda Gadbois › Spiritual Sciences - Mystery School Teachings

The outer world and everyone in it is formed as a reflection of our own inner nature, and anytime we're triggered into a reaction of some kind, it directly correlates to a hidden part of our own psyche, called our 'shadow self', which is formed out of our repressed nature. This is natures way of allowing us to 'see into' the hidden aspects of our own psyche so we can bring them into the light of awareness and begin working to transform them using our higher power of realization, choice, and will . . .

Seeing Challenges as Opportunities for Personal Growth

Seeing Challenges as Opportunities for Personal Growth: Seeing Challenges as Opportunities for Personal Growth › Dr. Linda Gadbois › Spiritual Sciences - Mystery School Teachings › Dr. Linda Gadbois

It can be difficult to really grasp how challenging situations, tragedies, and extreme hardships actually provide us with the basis for spiritual growth, but they're the only things that do. Many people think your "spiritual work" is separate from your daily life, when in fact, your daily is what provides you with the perfect means for growing yourself in new ways. We only "grow" when we're forced out of our comfort zone, where we're pushed to the end of our rope and are left not knowing where to go or what to do! I've had a very challenging life and it has provided me with the means for becoming who I am today, and this article is written from my experiences and how it was I used them to develop myself to a higher and more competent level of self-mastery . . .

We Only Cultivate Spiritual Powers through Live Experiences

We Only Cultivate Spiritual Powers through Live Experiences: We Only Cultivate Spiritual Powers through Live Experiences › Dr. Linda Gadbois › https://drlindagadbois.com/we-only-cultivate-spiritual-powers-through-live-experiences/

I've always found it strange how some people see their "spiritual work" as something they do independently of their daily life, as a special form of exercise, practice, or ritual, when, if we look closer at the true nature of reality, we can realize that we only ever "develop ourselves" by embodying new traits when we're in a live situation and pressed against the wall or forced out of our comfort zone. Spiritual development is exercised by how we respond to whatever is happening around us and is acting to stimulate different parts of our character into and active state of expression. We only truly "learn" by doing . . . .
