United We Stand, Divided We Fall

The Women’s Convention held at the Cobo center in Detroit, Michigan this year was a compelling event bringing awareness to the Trump administration agenda. The sessions held at the convention contained a lot of information and perspective from a citizen point of view as well as those of power and influence. From the comfortability of old information, to the future of our water systems and the decline of the importance of education, women from all over the world came to talk about it together! People on the panels for discussion explained the policies and laws trying to be passed through Congress and the progressive impact these will have on society in the coming years. The conversations held at The Women’s Convention were uncomfortable, yet necessary and exhilarating.

Speakers like Tarana Burke, who originally founded the #metoo campaign dealing with sexual assault and violence, brought awareness to neglect of victims and prosecution of offenders. Mayor Karen Weaver attended to continue awareness and involvement of communities pertaining to clean water and the Flint water crisis. Congresswoman Maxine Waters empowered the crowd with a very inspirational and informational speech in relation to the Trump administration and how their positions in office have crippled the nation. The Women’s Convention was a declaration of the power in unity. The protests of thousands of women who came together resulted in a movement that represents us all. Everyone was encouraged to take their rightful places and bring the conversations back to their communities to ensure change.

The reality of the issues at hand is that they’re not being dealt with. Trump continues to neglect issues that hit home for everyone in the nation while securing the necessary policies and connections to advance his own agenda. Puerto Rico, whom we colonized,  is still in ruins til this day from the destruction caused by hurricane Maria, when we have the necessary resources to help them. Supplies and resources are being withheld solely because of a paperwork issue they feel is necessary in order to save lives. Our President and his administration are coming together, spending valuable time on things like; gaining access to drill pipelines into our oceans, declining access to affordable healthcare, promoting the oppression of the people they govern, encouraging and igniting civil warfare, and degrading and discrediting the importance of women who birthed the people of this nation. Ultimately, we are being conspired against and our ignorance will allow the dismantling of us all. We are the people and the people have power. That power lies within unity, knowledge and awareness of issues affecting our communities and electing people who have already been a part of the solutions, on the front-line, fighting for us. Be sure to get out there and vote for your local officials at general election, Nov. 7th! The fight starts at home!!

Metaphysical Building Grounds

Over the weekend of October 27-29th I had the pleasure and honor of attending The Women’s Convention in Detroit, MI. The movement was created as a result of people all over the world coming together to fight for the rights of women and the equality of all. On January 21st, 2017, women united to revolt against the Trump Administration due to its’ oppressive agenda. The people who attended this convention desired to bring forth great change in history with collective individual effort. I was inspired and emotionally driven to engage in my own passion for spiritual awareness and pure consciousness. The change I personally would like to see is much deeper than politics or personal opinions. I want people to know how deeply their identities are rooted, how extremely important their existence is on a boundless and infinite scale and how meaningful their time on this Earth truly is.

One of the many important things I learned through this experience is how valuable our time is. There are ample amounts of activities we partake in that will lead us absolutely nowhere beneficial to the change that is taking place around us and inside of us, good or bad. The reality that we refuse to acknowledge is that we are not safe in our complacency. Not until the fight has come to our doorstep are we aware of the battles we have to endure. It’s time to dig deep inside ourselves and understand that the fight starts within us. We’re distracted by ideas of fun that will never amount to what we’d experience if we continuously invested into our true potential.

We focus so much of our time and energy on the many components of our physical world that we completely neglect the spiritual. When in all actuality, our energy is intended to be used spiritually to create physical energy that represents our inner being. Today, I really want us to hone into the being inside of us. That still voice deep within you. Before you take the time to do this, mentally prepare yourself with positive affirmations. Know that you are a strong, capable, great and powerful being. Love yourself unconditionally. Let go of physical reality, struggles, illusions, and negativity. Interact with that being because it knows who you are, who you have been and who you have the potential to be. Dispose yourself of distractions for a moment and connect with the eternal realm. This is the place where energy is manifested and brings forth fruition in our physical reality. That energy is seated within your Chakras and from there it’s distributed to its’ designated areas in your physical body.

First and for most, concentrate on grounding yourself through your Root(Muladhara) Chakra. Connect with your creative and explorative nature through your Sacral(Swadhisthana) Chakra. Ignite the transformational power in the Solar Plexus(Manipura) Chakra to combine your ability to imagine and create energetic matter. Allow your Heart (Anahata) Chakra to be the most powerful link between the physical and spiritual realm. Engage your Throat(Vishuddha) Chakra by listening deeply and bringing words to life. Incorporate your intellectual understanding through your Third-Eye (Ajna) Chakra. Connect with your infinite potential and pure consciousness by utilizing your Crown(Sahasrara) Chakra. By truly expending yourself with these chakras you will begin to see with new eyes. Your reality will change based off what you manifested within you. The world outside of you is a reflection of the world inside of you.

This information is to present the reality of the true power that lies dormant within us and how to utilize it. We’re consumed by so many things we don’t understand we just need to take the time to invest in this knowledge to give it the opportunity to change all of our lives. The Women’s Convention showed me how powerful it is to bring riveting truth to the world. The truth I’m working to bring to the surface is spiritual awareness and pure consciousness. It’s an immensely neglected topic that is vital to whole-heartedly understand and encompass as human beings. It reveals purpose and opportunity that we truly yearn to create. We are so much more than just a person walking and working our way through life on earth. We are created in the image of God. There’s oceans, sunsets, animals, elements, trees, and then there’s you. We’re all connected by the energetic forces of life. You are enough, you are powerful beyond measure! Let it excite you, not scare you. Become knowledgable and familiar with this information, and you will become limitless.
