Teach your subconscious mind to be conscious. Feed your conscious mind with faith, wisdom, and love, so your subconscious will allow your faith to grow stronger, your wisdom to broaden, and your love to shine through. Danny G.
Sturdy and Strong to Win the Battle
Don’t wait until you’re in seasons of danger before investing time for yourself. For when you’re in moments of panic, it’s difficult to have clarity of thought and assess your thoughts and choose wisdom. But if you invest time for yourself before the storm passes through, and you focus on your spiritual journey, like the palm tree that bends but never falls, you will be sturdy and strong to win the battle.

Treading Mountains
Your greatest power is your imagination. Combine it with wisdom, an attentive ear, and an open mind and you’ll conquer anything. When your faith becomes stronger than your fear or doubt, you win the battle, and you know you can tread mountains before you. Danny G.
It’s All Perception
Suffering is a mind not at ease, and a body not at ease. The mind not at ease is optional, and whatever the mind says, the body eventually follows. Reaction defines everything including your emotional state and the life that unfolds. React out of peace, harmony and love. Seek wisdom, above your preconceived notions and misconceptions. In time, with persistence and faith, you’ll have the life of your every desire. Danny G.
Follow Your Passion
Follow your passion, what you love to do, and what brings you the greatest joy. That passion stems from the God or Goddess within you. Denying it, is denying who you truly are, and what you came forth to be. Danny G.
Experience As the Greatest Teacher
Experience combined with wisdom and an open mind is the greatest teacher, for that epiphany couldn’t have happened without the experience that brought you there. You had to have a spiritual awakening to know who you truly are, your depth and your reason for being. You had to have an epiphany to know your origin and the source that created you and is in you. The experience is never an accident, and if you listen to the experience and what it taught you, you would realize everything is orchestrated in divine order and timing.
Get beyond the experience by seeking inward to know its purpose for being. For when you seek within and back away, you can see the experience with a new perspective. New perspectives create a new reality.
Experience can either pull us back or move us forward. It all depends on our reaction to the experience, and if we choose to seek inward. Seeking inward means seeing the experience as the God or Goddess within you would see it. It’s realizing our higher self is always seeking growth, and when we embrace that, growth is inevitable.
There is a God or Goddess inside you at all time wanting you to seek it, for it knows the ideal pathway for your life. This God or Goddess knows how to react to new experiences and challenges. It knows how to overcome and conquer, and it knows how to reach the mountain top. This God or Goddess can do anything you want, you just have to be in alignment with it.
Being in alignment with it means you think like it, you speak like it, and you follow its inspired action steps. The only control you have is through thought, word, and action, and when you allow the divine to guide your every thought, word, and action, anything is possible.
You probably heard the scripture “with God, all things are possible.” Realize this God lives inside you at all times providing you with the insight, inspiration, and wisdom you need for your unique journey, and experience.
Recognize your depth, your strength, your wisdom through the God or Goddess you are, and don’t ever shrink back. Realize nothing is too difficult for the GREAT I AM!
Born A Phoenix
When you feel that void within the depth of your being, fill it with God’s unconditional love. Fill it with his wisdom, compassion and strength. In time that void will dissipate, as you learn to let go and embrace the divine being you are. You were born a phoenix and you always will be. Danny G.
The Spiritual Evolution
You’re a spiritual being on a spiritual journey
You have two beings within you at all times. One being is your inner being, or you can call it a soul, or spirit. The other being is the physical body that exists within the time space reality. Both are constantly affected by one another.
Whenever you spend more time inward, you tap in to the infinite intelligence or the God or Goddess inside you. You tap into this infinite intelligence by meditating, practicing mindfulness, or any type of spiritual practice that allows you to connect to the divine.
Anything that quiets the mind is beneficial to your mind and body, because when you quiet your mind, you let go of distractions that prevent you from having clarity of thought. When you have clarity of thought, you can listen to your inner guidance and wisdom.
Stress is created by an overactive mind, in which you’re obsessing over a number of stressors. You’re either stressing about the past or in most cases the future. When you stop fighting the thought, you’re in the present moment and you’re able to access your higher consciousness. When you access your higher consciousness, you feel true joy, gratitude and love, because accessing your higher consciousness means connecting to the divine. The divine is joy, gratitude, love and all the good in the world. When you operate out of the divine, you’re receptive to the insights from your soul, and the ego vanishes.
What does ego mean? The origin of the acronym means “edging God out.” When you act from your soul, being right is irrelevant because all you want to seek is love. When you act from your soul, fear vanishes because you have faith that can move worlds. When you act from your soul you’re no longer desperate for your desires, because you feel as though they already manifested or you feel such appreciation that the desire is irrelevant.
That’s where true freedom lies, with faith and love that cannot be shaken. This is the divinity that you are, a shell that has the most powerful energy inside you, which is God.
The Work is Within (Blog Article)
There are many different causes for mental health challenges, but at the root of almost every mental illness is a lack of self control. When we don’t feel in control, we indulge in addictive behaviors, not only substance abuse but our behavior and emotions as well. We can be addicted to our emotions if we cannot stop them. An addiction can be described as anything that you feel has control and power over you. If I was to say all day long, this disease has control over me, what would I create, and what would I act on? It’s our thoughts that move us to action. If I was to say all day long, I want to eat a cheese burger, what would happen eventually?
This feeling of being out of control stems from a long perpetuating set of beliefs that have in many cases been lingering for a long time. What we believe we expect at one point or another. What is OCD, other than an overactive mind focused and obsessing over a particular situation, or event?
Overcoming your mental health challenges is about discipline and retraining your mind into self empowerment. It’s remembering you created these thoughts from your misconceptions, environment, or others’ opinions. Saying it’s merely a chemical imbalance is stating that’s it’s something outside of you creating the disorder. When we leave it to an outside source, we have no control, and we’re destined to a fate out of our control. The only control we’ll ever have is through our thoughts, words and actions. Recovering is about creating a new set of beliefs, and expectations. What creates anxiety other than your expectation of fears about your future?
One of the best means of eliminating or reducing your anxiety is to be still. What is the opposite of anxiety or an overactive mind? Quieting your mind. Relaxation, mindfulness or meditation are a few examples and there are many more. The more you apply relaxation practices, and quiet your mind, the more you train your mind to be in a space of tranquility. Setting a time for a relaxation technique such as meditation can retrain your mind. Consistency is key. When we stop the practice, often we revert back to old ways of thinking, because our mind needs persistence and discipline to be retrained. Nevertheless, you’ve been programming your mind for so long, sometimes, it takes time to see progress.
What is anxiety, depression or manic depression other than a belief you cannot control or manage the illness? If it was controlled or managed, would you always be having reoccurrences? There are physiological reasons for it, and biological reasons as well. However, the only control we have is our reaction to the illness, and the action is expressed through thought, word, and behavior.
Mental illness doesn’t have to be a reoccurring theme in your life. You can heal and you can manage your health challenges, and not allow the illness to control you. Recovery requires a persistent determination to reprogram your mind into self empowerment and discipline. Practice being at peace with life, practice being optimistic, and practice the art of letting do. Set the course, speak to your challenge saying you’re nothing but a belief or expectation, and I can change you now.
There’s a time to focus on the solution but there’s also a time to focus your energy in another positive direction. Give yourself a break every once in a while. Be your source of inspiration. Find things you’re passionate about so you will stop focusing so much on your illness, and you’ll feel a greater purpose as you discover your dreams and goals. Sometimes a fun or uplifting distraction is the best way to focus on a new chapter, and create a new life for you. In doing so, you’re focusing on something more productive than your addictive behaviors and emotions. You’ll discover a balance of discipline and distraction from your problems is the means of recovering one step at a time.
Healing is always occurring, as your body is constantly changing. Allow it to change gracefully, and allow your soul to discover the wisdom that comes with age. Embrace the journey, and appreciate the moments of change. Allow yourself to break free from the cage of confinement, and allow yourself yourself to break free from the cage of powerlessness, pessimism, and bitterness. Mental illness doesn’t have to reoccur throughout a lifetime, and even if it does at times, you can practice and retrain your mind into self empowerment and self discipline.
Practice, repetition, and balance is key to recovery and greater peace of mind. You’ll discover the best means of letting go, and retraining your mind, is focusing on your potential, and not your lack of self control.
Set Your Own Standard (Blog Article)
Your Best is Good Enough
So many times we have a standard in our mind of how we are to be, or what we are to do, and when we don’t measure up, we sabotage ourselves through guilt, condemnation, and bitterness. We create our own standards of how to live, and succeed, but everybody has their own standards. The question remains which is the right path? We all have our own journey, and obstacles, so the standard should be following authenticity and our destiny.
The most important element is being the best we can be through thought, word, and deed. That’s the only control we’ll ever have, and the only control we’re given in this reality through the divinity we are.
Our intentions and motives are stuck on the image we’ve projected through domestication. It’s what we learned throughout the years of how we are to be. Some works for our benefit, and some hinders us. If it’s empowering, inspiring, or it gives us joy, that’s the right standard for us. If we feel guilt, condemnation and bitterness, we are not operating under the right motives. If you’re full of negative emotion, what good can you do? Can you uplift? Can you inspire? Can you motivate? These negative emotions only zaps our energy and strength.
All wisdom comes from a state of peace, love, joy, and whatever emotion contradicts this, is not of God. Everyone on this planet is struggling with something, and often it’s these challenges which stretch our boundaries and limitations. If life is perfect, we are perfect, and we fulfilled our every dream, there’s nothing else to work towards, and achieve. Sometimes the thorn is what stretches our faith unto uncharted territory into the unknown. It’s what allows us to keep seeking growth, and success.
If the thorn aggravates you to a point where you sink into a pit where escape seems impossible, then you’re allowing the thorn to hold you back. If you feel at peace despite the thorn, while no longer allowing it to cause aggravation, you allow it to make you stronger, and full of faith.
Let the thorn do what’s it’s supposed to do if you cannot find a means of letting it go yet. In time when the work is fulfilled, you’ll begin to ignore it, then it loses its power, and strength. You’ll set a new standard for yourself with new dreams where the thorn loses its hold on you.
That’s when you realize what true freedom is and that’s when you realize you are the master of the ship destined to create your own mission and happiness.
