Journeying Back To Self
True Self
The subtitle of Sincerely Searching, "Journeying Back to Self," reflects the belief that we are created from all-powerful, infinite energy, experiencing life in physical bodies with unique identities. Along the way, we often forget our connection to this source. Rediscovering our true Self—Spirit—reconnects us to the energy field of Oneness, where we can access higher levels of consciousness.
As we experience life, we share these moments with this source, learning what it means to be ourselves (as a self). In doing so, we deepen our connection to our true essence, aligning more fully with a higher truth. The "self" refers to the identity shaped by family, society, and external influences, while the "Self" is our true essence—an all-knowing, boundless energy. Often, we navigate life through this constructed self, influenced by inherited beliefs that may not align with our true values. This unconscious guidance steers us toward paths we don’t want to travel, until we become aware and can consciously choose a new direction, reconnecting with our true Self. This process deepens as our consciousness evolves.
This journey requires courage. Questioning beliefs tied to our identity can be overwhelming and destabilizing, but awareness strengthens our connection to Spirit, opening us to the answers we seek. When I find myself challenged, I ask: "How did I get here? What’s my role?" In these moments, I recognize outdated beliefs, past influences, or societal expectations that limit my growth. Awareness gives me the power to transform.
The self (ego—mind and emotions) is reactive, while Self (Spirit) is quietly present, awaiting our attention. The Self (Spirit) trusts that every choice, whether conscious or unconscious, serves our growth and evolution. It doesn’t intervene but lovingly allows us to learn and evolve through our journey, offering guidance whenever we choose to seek it, gently leading us back to our true essence.
To align with Spirit, I place my hand on my heart to activate it, pause, breathe, and set the intention to release attachments to external expectations. I repeat the Release Mantra: "I release these thoughts, feelings, and emotions because they no longer serve me," inviting a new consciousness rooted in Spirit to become my operating system, trusting the Self (Spirit) to guide the shift.
The Self (Spirit) is universal, transcending individual experience. Regardless of our unique paths, we all share this essence. Journeying back to Self means shifting from identifying with our persona to recognizing our limitless nature. Life isn’t about a final destination—it’s about how we travel: with awareness, openness, and acceptance. By embracing each step, we reconnect with our true essence: Self (Spirit), living as a self.
