In my last post, we began to review the practice behind “Changing Boxes” – which has become one the most popular teachings and meditations in our community. If you missed it, please read Changing Boxes: Revisiting a Favorite Practice – Part I.

We left off with two fundamental tenets of this work:

• Where you place your attention is where you place your energy.

• Nothing changes in your life ... until you change your energy.

... which led to some fundamental questions:

• How can you become unencumbered by the energy of your problems or challenges?
  
  
• How can you change your energy and move to a greater level of consciousness; one where the challenge or problem no longer exists?

Now, let’s explore what it means to ascend our energy – and work with it in the quantum field.


The Strength of Your Signal

Think of emotions as “energy in motion.” And if every day your negative emotions are creating the same energy to react to the same problem, then that energy produces a specific signal in the quantum field.

Now, if that signal comes from an incoherent brain and heart, you’re producing an energetic frequency carrying thoughts that no longer have coherence, or syntropy. Instead, they have entropy – which means they have less power over your three-dimensional reality. It’s simply a weaker signal. 

It makes sense, then, that a weak signal would exert weaker effects on outcomes in your life – especially when it comes to the energy needed to change a persistent, challenging situation.

As we talked about in Part I, you can’t solve a problem from the same level of consciousness (or unconsciousness) that created it. This means you have to reach a greater level of consciousness than the one that’s actually reinforcing the issue at hand.

This is where we begin to fully explore how to move to a greater level of mind – where the problem or challenge no longer exists.


Thoughts as Patterns

When you’re triggered by a problem or situation, you’ve most likely experienced it many times before – meaning it has an associated neurological network in your brain. This means you have emotions associated with the problem, as well.

These well-established connections create a vicious cycle whereby your reaction to the situation – real or imagined – is actually feeding the problem with the same energy. And if you keep feeding the same problem with the same energy, you get the same reality.

Now, if thoughts are the electrical charge that you send out into the field ... and feelings are the magnetic charge that draws reality to you ... and how you think and how you feel is broadcasting an electromagnetic signature on a moment-to-moment basis ... then your memories of the past and your reaction to your outer environment are keeping everything the same.

In other words, how you think and how you feel creates your reality. And if you keep thinking and feeling the same way, then your life will remain the same.


Asking Questions That Can Lead to Answers

If you’re stuck in this pattern, ask yourself: Does how you think about the challenge or problem strengthen or weaken you?

If you’re having an angry reaction to your ex-partner or your boss, those thoughts and feelings are weakening the body – and, consequently, weakening your field. And if the hormones of stress are activating your survival systems, the result will be incoherence in your brain and heart.

This kind of dissonance becomes part of the thought forms that create a specific kind of energy – an incoherent energy. Think of the signal from incoherent energy like static on a radio station. When you’re not tuned to the right frequency, you don’t get a clear signal.

In other words, since every thought produces a frequency, your incoherent thoughts are creating poorly formed patterns in the field.

And the more those incomplete patterns become incomplete creations, the more they reinforce the problems you want to resolve. Why? Because the pattern is not whole.

As those troubling thoughts produce more stress hormones, and you reinforce this pattern over and over, sickness or dis-ease occurs – because you are signaling the same patterns and gene expression by thought alone.

Your thoughts are literally making you sick.

Now, ask yourself: Is anyone or anything worth it?


Becoming Aware of Possibilities

Let’s return to the premise I briefly described in Part I – the concept behind “Changing Boxes.”

I want you to think of yourself, confronting the same old problems with the same old thoughts and the same old feelings – giving your attention and energy to those the challenges in your life in the same old way – as someone who is trapped in a box.

To an observer watching you from outside that box, wouldn’t it seem obvious you’re not being very loving to yourself – especially if you keep doing this for an extended period of time?

Now, consider this. If you understand that all possibilities exist in the quantum field, then there already is a door you haven’t thought of or known about ... a way out of the current situation you are in.

There already is a way out of that same old box.

However, you can’t see your way out of that challenge if you’re looking at it from the same level of mind – the emotions, thoughts, and feelings of the past. In order to see a way out, you would have to take all your attention, energy, emotions, and thoughts – your consciousness – off the obstacle that exists in your 3D reality – and turn it toward possibility.

That’s what we mean when we say you can’t solve the problem from the same level of consciousness that created it. You have to evolve to a greater level of mind to find your way in to that new box.

We’ll talk about next steps in Part III. In the meantime, I challenge you to ask yourself what old boxes you might be trapped in ... and invite you to consider the possibility there’s a way out you haven’t yet begun to imagine.
