Tips from Regina ~ Review Lesson 217

August 25, 2017 By Regina Dawn Akers

Review instructions: Spend at least 15 minutes in the morning and evening contemplating today’s lesson. Repeat today’s idea at least hourly. Use today’s idea throughout the day.

Today’s review idea:

I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created me.
It can be but my gratitude that I earn.

Once we have decided to awaken, the purpose of the entire universe is our awakening. It is the purpose of meditation and the purpose of conflict. It is the purpose of inspiring teachings, and it is the purpose of apparent rejection. It is the purpose of inner guidance, and it is the purpose of everything in the world that seems to be going against ‘my way.’ It is the purpose of everything.

Since our personal awakening is the sole purpose of the universe, we can be grateful for everything. Everything is occurring to help us reach this goal. It is all in support of our purpose. Nothing stands against us. Everything is with us.

My personal prayer at dinnertime each night is this: “Holy Spirit, thank you so very much for everything. Amen.” As I pray, I remember the day. I remember both that which inspired me and that which challenged me, and I let myself feel genuine gratitude for all of it. This keeps the purpose of awakening foremost in my mind and enables me to use everything for this one purpose.

Tips from Regina ~ Review Lesson 216

August 24, 2017 By Regina Dawn Akers

Review instructions: Spend at least 15 minutes in the morning and evening contemplating today’s lesson. Repeat today’s idea at least hourly. Use today’s idea throughout the day.

Today’s review idea:

I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created me.
It can be but myself I crucify.

Attack is not the way to gain what you want. It is how you create and extend your own suffering, your own ongoing agitation. If peace is important to you, attack is something that must be relinquished.

Where there is attack, peace is disregarded.
Where there is peace, attack is unfounded.

Make inner peace your highest value, and attack will disappear from your mind.

Tips from Regina ~ Review Lesson 215

August 23, 2017 By Regina Dawn Akers

Review instructions: Spend at least 15 minutes in the morning and evening contemplating today’s lesson. Repeat today’s idea at least hourly. Use today’s idea throughout the day.

Today’s review idea:

I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created me.
Love is the way I walk in gratitude.

Today, we simply remain in right-gratitude. Right-gratitude is gratitude for awareness-life-presence as it is. When wrong-minded perceptions enter our awareness, we will notice that the wrong-minded perception is caused by judgment; the mind has decided that one thing or circumstance is better than another. After noticing the comparison in the mind, we will relax, let go of comparison and replace it with gratitude for awareness-life-presence. In this way, we walk in love today.

Tips from Regina ~ Review Lesson 214

August 22, 2017 By Regina Dawn Akers

Review instructions: Spend at least 15 minutes in the morning and evening contemplating today’s lesson. Repeat today’s idea at least hourly. Use today’s idea throughout the day.

Today’s review idea:

I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created me.
I place the future in the Hands of God.

We play God when we try to force or control circumstances to make them go ‘our way.’ Can our limited point-of-view know what is in the best interest of everyone? And yet, whenever we tamper with what is occurring, we affect ones we will never meet. No interference goes without effects we will never be aware of.

Isn’t it better to trust the benevolence of truth, to leave all things in its Hands, and practice forgiveness on circumstances that upset us? Until we know we have fully merged with God, and we have no thought or will that is apart from God, let’s leave all things to God. Let’s not entangle the unfolding with our limited and selfish ideas of what should be.

Tips from Regina ~ Review Lesson 213

August 21, 2017 By Regina Dawn Akers

Review instructions: Spend at least 15 minutes in the morning and evening contemplating today’s lesson. Repeat today’s idea at least hourly. Use today’s idea throughout the day.

Today’s review idea:

I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created me.
All things are lessons God would have me learn.

The most effective way to heal is to take advantage of every upset in order to practice forgiveness. In the following audio, I demonstrate practicing forgiveness on an upset that came to me while viewing a post in Facebook. It is an example of not letting a single upset pass by without forgiving attention. The audio is about 20 minutes long. (If you are short on time, you can listen to 15 minutes and skip the song at the end of the audio.)

Tips from Regina ~ Review Lesson 212

August 20, 2017 By Regina Dawn Akers

Review instructions: Spend at least 15 minutes in the morning and evening contemplating today’s lesson. Repeat today’s idea at least hourly. Use today’s idea throughout the day.

Today’s review idea:

I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created me.
I have a function God would have me fill.

“Teach your mind to listen to truth, and you teach the mind that it is a mirage also. In this way, the mind becomes willing to be quieted. And in the quiet of the mind, the echo of truth can be heard. … Teach the mind to be subject to the Heart by being grateful for the desire of the Heart. … Be ready to remind yourself of your truth. The way of the thinking mind is forgetfulness, but your way is the way of remembering. Joyfully remember whenever the mind forgets, and the way will be filled with happiness and deep gratitude.” ~ NTI Titus

Tips from Regina ~ Review Lesson 211

August 19, 2017 By Regina Dawn Akers

Review instructions: Spend at least 15 minutes in the morning and evening contemplating today’s lesson. Repeat today’s idea at least hourly. Use today’s idea throughout the day.

Today’s review idea:

I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created me.
I am the holy Son of God Himself.

Thoughts and feelings come and go. When we identify with a thought or feeling, and then link it to memories of similar circumstances, we create a false self. The false self is selective identification with temporary thoughts and feelings. Selective identification ignores the truth of what is always constant as one’s self. For this reason, selective identification is called ignorance.

Today we let go of selective identification. We see the difference between what comes and goes and what is constant. We identify with our true Self, constant awareness-life-presence. We live from the clarity of Self-realization instead of from the ignorance of identifying with passing thoughts and emotions.

Tips from Regina ~ Review Lesson 210

August 18, 2017 By Regina Dawn Akers

Review instructions: Spend at least 15 minutes in the morning and evening contemplating today’s lesson. Repeat today’s idea at least hourly. Use today’s idea throughout the day.

Today’s review idea:

I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created me.
I choose the joy of God instead of pain.

Emotional pain is the result of a decision in the mind. If I decide that something is unacceptable, I will suffer from that choice.

Freedom from suffering comes from the Loving All Method, because when we practice the Loving All Method we are choosing joy with all experiences. Love everything. If you can’t genuinely love it, emotionally accept it. If you can’t accept it, emotionally allow it. These choices lead to freedom from suffering.

Tips from Regina ~ Review Lesson 209

August 17, 2017 By Regina Dawn Akers

Review instructions: Spend at least 15 minutes in the morning and evening contemplating today’s lesson. Repeat today’s idea at least hourly. Use today’s idea throughout the day.

Today’s review idea:

I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created me.
I feel the Love of God within me now.

Today we let meditation be as it is. We do not ask for a deeper experience than the one we have. We not ask for visions or insight. We do not ask for awakening to come today. We make no demands. Instead, we sit quietly with our eyes closed in appreciation for awareness-life-presence as it is, which we know and feel, regardless of any experience or non-experience that happens around and within it.

Tips from Regina ~ Review Lesson 208

August 16, 2017 By Regina Dawn Akers

Review instructions: Spend at least 15 minutes in the morning and evening contemplating today’s lesson. Repeat today’s idea at least hourly. Use today’s idea throughout the day.

Today’s review idea:

I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created me.
The peace of God is shining in me now.

Today we are reminded how important awareness-watching-awareness meditation is to our goal of Self-realization. Workbook lesson 188 said, “Sit quietly and close your eyes. The light within you is sufficient. It alone has the power to give the gift of sight to you.” And so, we commit to awareness-watching-awareness meditation for a minimum of 15-20 minutes each day. No matter how busy our life appears to be, in self-honesty we realize we can always find at least 15 minutes for this important practice.

When we are not in meditation, we contemplate awareness-life-presence in ourselves, in others and in nature. We let awareness-life-presence become the focus of our perception. We also live as awareness-life-presence instead of living from attachment to thought. Instead of going to our mind’s thoughts about how to perceive, think, speak and act, we quietly ask spiritual intuition for guidance, and we joyously follow the guidance we receive.
