Maintaining "Spiritual" Parents

As parents, we are not capable of filling all the needs of our awesome angelic children. As babies, they reach far into the levels of connection, love and acceptance than we can ever hope to accomplish as adults. As our lessons come in and our memories begin to resonate with our larger lessons, we become more and more uncomfortable as we get older. There is nothing to compare with the wonderful connection we have as innocent children.

There is no age where we grow out of needing to be loved, adored, guided and comforted. There is always the aspect that life as we know it could never fill the depth of our needs. So why do we go through such agony looking for love and numbing ourselves from the reality of not having love? Isn't there something more that we can do?

If you are like me, I spend most of my time affirming that I am not good enough, that everyone else is better than me and that I am different from you. I walk around with varying degrees of experience that I don't have enough. Even when I HAVE ENOUGH, I go out of the way to knock myself down and go look at the subject from someone who has it better. It is endless!

So here is what has worked for me and I hope that it works for you.

I have given myself a set of new parents. I created them in my creative imagination. I gave my new parents the ability to give me everything that I need and every time I need more, I upgrade them to include the ability to give me what I need.

This technique is a well imagined thought. I usually have to get quiet. I sit in front of the fireplace or under a cozy blanket and relax. In the quiet place of my imagination, I give myself the experience that I am looking for. Enough love, guidance, the perfect look into my eye that I need. If that isn't enough, I go and get more.

I let my spiritual parents feed me with what I need to be enough. I let it in to the places inside me that don't feel they are enough. Sometimes I use a color or a sense to show me where in my body that need is hiding. I penetrate it, knowing that I need love. I also “pull in” loving energy from my spiritual parents and send love back to them. This somehow adds to the experience and I come out of the meditation with the experience of having enough.

I hope that you enjoy your process.
