I believe in the power of a united vision to make a difference in
the world. When we shine our collective lights on any portion of
our planet, we become greater than the sum of our individual
parts and can co-create miracles together. The dismantling of the
Berlin Wall was one example of the power of group consciousness
to manifest a positive change in the world.
In the wake of Hurricane Katrina, many of us hear the call in our
hearts and souls to reach out to the survivors who have lost so
much. So we send what we can to those who are providing physical
and psychological assistance to hurricane victims. We open our
communities to receive the displaced and the homeless. We pray
for them. And we wonder if there is more we can do to help.
There is something else you can do to make a positive difference:
You can join in Spirit with those who are envisioning healing,
comfort, and solace for the many who are suffering in the
aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.
New developments in quantum physics tell us we are all a part of
the same "unified field of consciousness." This means that your
thoughts and mine ultimately form one great whole. The
implications of this theory are vast. For example, it suggests
that as more of us practice holding peaceful thoughts, we can
create a critical mass that actually impacts the behavior of the
whole.
Over the past twenty years, scientific research has documented
the relationship between group meditation in various cities in
the U.S. and Canada, and significant reductions in traffic
accidents, suicides, violent crime, and even unemployment. These
studies have been replicated numerous times, and published in
scientific peer-reviewed journals.
When we employ visualization, we form a collective field of
consciousness with the unified intention of creating positive
transformation. Here is a process for using the power of imagery
to assist those whose lives have been affected by this disaster.
As you follow this process, keep in mind that it isn't necessary
to see things clearly when you visualize. Some of us feel or
sense things more than we picture them in our imagination.
However you do it is okay.
A VISUALIZATION TO AID HURRICANE VICTIMS
1. Sitting comfortably with your back straight, close your eyes
and begin breathing slowly and deeply.
2. Imagine there is a beautiful beam of light coming down from
the center of the heavens directly into the top of your head.
This light is pure, positive energy. It is the light that
creates worlds. The light of perfect peace and unconditional
love. The light of Source. The light of well-being.
3. Sense this light filling your body from head to toe. Feel it
enlightening and enlivening each cell. Experience it as
soothing and relaxing every part of you. Allow it to penetrate
to the deepest level of your being. Open to receive its
blessings, its loving presence.
4. Next, experience this light as pouring out of your heart,
and going to all of those who have been impacted by Hurricane
Katrina--survivors, rescue workers, and the relatives and
friends of victims. Imagine the light from your heart spreads
soothing, upliftment, healing, and comfort to each one it
touches.
5. Now send your heart-light to the entire U.S. Gulf region,
blanketing the land, and all life--including people, plants,
and animals.
6. Next imagine things as you would like them to be for the
hurricane survivors. For example, picture them as thriving,
living abundant, joyful lives. Let your imagination soar
here. Be light-hearted with this process. You needn't know
how these things will come about--simply visualize all of
the good that you desire for these people, as if it is
already a reality. Remind yourself that the better you feel
as you envision the changes you desire, the more helpful you
are to the hurricane survivors.
7. Whenever you are ready, come back slowly and gradually, and
open your eyes.
Since your thoughts have the power to co-create, be careful not
to dwell on the horrific images you have seen on television or in
print media, as you go about your daily life. Rather, try to
hold the vision in your consciousness of how you WANT things to
be. In so doing, you contribute to an energetic field of hope and
healing for the benefit of all.
