Restoration

Greetings all,

Well after my last post you may have wondered if I was gonna go off on a tear again.  Fear not.  I bring tidings of joy.  I have returned from my travels renewed.

For those of you who don't know I went back to the Monroe Institute 2 weeks ago to take the Heartlines program.  This was my 3rd program.  I took the Gateway Voyage the entry level residential program back in 2014.  It was 5 years and 10 lifetimes ago.  My life has changed tremendously since then.  I wrote a book, quit retail, changed teaching jobs twice, produced an album, had several loved ones pass away, and parted ways with other folks if not amicably then at least definitively.  I took Guidelines in 2017 which pointed me to Heartlines as my next foray into Monroe programs.

Okay so I should probably give you guys a bit of background.  A long time ago in a galaxy far far away there lived an ordinary man with extraordinary abilities.  He could leave his body, without dying. (That's the trick really,  I mean anyone can leave their body at least once, but to not die while doing so can be dicey for the average homo sapien).  Once he realized he was not crazy he set out to study this phenomena and the field of consciousness.  His name was Bob Monroe, hence the name of the institute.  They use binaural entrainment and hemisphere synchronization to help people enter states of altered and expanded awareness.  It's pretty nifty stuff, and right up the alley of someone like me.  So that should give you enough background information to get the gist of my journey.

So their programs do have a sort of progression where you go into higher focus levels. So of course I was approaching this like a role playing game thinking each program was like leveling up my character.  Heartlines is not in that linear progression, it does require the Gateway, but you can take it any order after that.  I found out most folks save it for last.  It is more about going within the heart and emotional body, instead of rocketing off into more ethereal realms.  Yep folks are scared to go inside that dusty old heart.  I was scared too.  I found it intimidating, luckily for me many of my shamanic classes have felt like that so I am somewhat used to the feeling of, "Oh shit what have I gotten myself into?"

I can't tell you what we did, because this program comes with a spoiler warning.  There are some things you have to go into blindly and this is one of them.  I will say it helped me to open up more, to bond strongly with folks which has been hard for me to do in the past few years.  It allowed me to accept love  into my heart and to see where my blocks originated.  (Hint, not in this lifetime). I also connected with a blue alien lover, secret lover mmmhmm.  Beyond all this I realized that this program was the reason I went to Gateway in the first place, it was to get me here.  Where is that exactly?  It's the place where I reclaim my joy, my gifts, and my space.  I am back and feistier than ever.  So long status quo, so long probability, shit is about to get weird.  Which is how I like it.

Why am I telling you all this?  Well I sought renewal and I pursued it.  I think too often in life we come to a place and think that our joy is gone for good.  I am here to tell you that's horse shit.  There is pain and suffering in this world, but there is also hope.  If we keep trying there is always a possibility for a win.  If we don't try the possibility dies in our lives.  So commit to taking care of yourself.  Take the journey,  go within.  It can be dark and scary in there so take some friends.  Venture into the dark woods together, and never split the party!  We are in this together.  You are not alone.

Peace and Blessings,
Thomas Mooneagle
