Integration Evaluation
You can fill out the Integration Scales form to reflect on how your integration is going. The form is derived from a study published in Frontiers magazine.
Intentionality
So much of this work is about intentionality. In the abbey, we bow to the Buddha and shrines not only to show reverence, but also to re-focus on the intention of having an empty mind. When we bless ourselves with the sign of the cross in the Catholic church, it opens our heart to God and brings focus to our intention of being godly while entering the sacred.
Setting an intention before entering an altered state of consciousness is our chance to bring what is most important to us to the forefront of our minds. Just as there are no limits to our prayers, our intention for communing with our higher self can be limitless. We can seek physical healing for something like a tight shoulder, or mental healing by praying for more focus, emotional healing where we shower our inner child with love, or spiritual healing of mending our ancestral connections. This is our chance to commune with our higher self, and leave that which no longer serves us at the feet of God. Reach out if you would like me to help you unearth your intentions.
