Yes, This Article Comes from a Spiritual Teacher
As some of you regular blog readers know by now, I am not an advice giver. Rather, I’m a teacher of personal development, an Enlightenment Coach.
In the background this simple, practical blogpost aims to help you to grow emotionally and spiritually. Aiming to help you to use your full potential in life, also known as “Spiritual Enlightenment.”
How to Build Back Our Communities
Here come some everyday solutions from a spiritual teacher.
Protect Your Community, Protect Your Consciousness #1.
Counter Today’s Sneaky Anti-Social Trend
Since history is hard to notice while it’s happening, we might have no idea of current threats to community life. Yet those big trends still matter. From a cover story in “The Atlantic,” I learned about an awful American trend that may be pulling you toward aloneness.
COMMENTING below, I will share with you some of the shocking facts from that article about today’s lack of social connection.
Protect Your Community, Protect Your Consciousness #2.
“Who Cares about Others?” How to Counter this Trend
You and I can choose to live in a way that is more socially connected. There’s plenty we can do. In fact, in COMMENTS below, you might wind up adding some ideas that help others.
Please do, by COMMENTING as soon as these ideas occur to you.
Likewise, share any But-But-Buts. Why is your immediate reaction, “I could never . . . “?
Protect Your Community, Protect Your Consciousness #3.
Talk to People in Energetic Real Time

Talking to other people: Accept no substitute.
Texting is convenient. Emails are useful. This blog can only exist electronically, not one-on-one. And yet:
There is no substitute for connecting to other human beings in energetic real time. Do this in person, by phone, via Skype or Zoom audio.
Sure, some folks will always prefer Skype or Zoom video, and that’s fine. Maybe it’s TV that has trained so many of us that unless we can SEE people, we can’t really connect with them. Nonsense!
Bottom line: Conversations that are NOT in Energetic Real Time do not leave a trace within you. No significant trace goes into your Storehouse of Energetic Holograms, for instance. Energetically, these “conversations are empty.” Improverishing your sense of social connection.
Do automatically text everyone? It’s such a virtual version of communicating with other people. And yes, energetically, it’s empty.
COMMENT below and share if you’ve purposely cut down on the texting.
Recently, have you made any effort to connect with others in energetic real time? Was that hard to do or surprisingly easy? Did you notice any improvement?
Protect Your Community, Protect Your Consciousness #4.
Choose Friendliness

Masking up doesn’t have to keep you from saying hello.
One person at a time, we can counter today’s “COLLECTIVE Attention Deficit Disorder.” Smile at strangers you pass on the street (unless they seem dangerous). Say hello when you can.
Even if that stranger is clearly looking at her phone, you can still say, “Hi.” That small, social encouragement to be with others when you’re physically present with them . . . Count that as a beautiful good deed to do every day. A good deed that costs you nothing.
Every social contact you make can remind people that they have the ability to connect to other people socially. It may take courage to do this, at a time when many folks seem to care more about their phones than any other human being.
Choose friendliness anyway, as best you can. Do not go gentle into that social deadness.
If you’ve tried saying hello to strangers, what have you found? Please COMMENT below and share. Your words might encourage others to do the “uncool” thing of looking at strangers with just enough personal acknowledgment.
Protect Your Community, Protect Your Consciousness #5.
Actively Protect the Integrity of Your Consciousness

Use your pull to strengthen community.
Imagine that you’re engaged in an ongoing tug of war. Today and every day, the momentum in society now may pull you in the opposite direction of consciousness integrity. Don’t let that influence you toward making choices that temporarily deaden you as a human soul.
Really, without making any conscious choices to deaden yourself, you could be walking around using just 10% or more of your God-given soul expression for this lifetime.
Yes, there’s even an Energy Spirituality HEALING CENTERPIECE that helps to restore your full soul expression: Soul Retrieval and Validation.
If you like, next time you have a personal session with me, you can ask if I might be able to help you to live juicier, more like yourself. In the process, you’ll help your inner Soul Expression Support to do its job better.
COMMENT below if you have noticed results from Soul Retrieval and Validation. Stories, please.
Protect Your Community, Protect Your Consciousness #6.
Stop Treating Your Phone Like Your Best Friend

These days could this woman’s phone be her best friend?
How weird to think of your phone as your bestie. Like the first person you turn to each morning. And the last person you speak to at night.
Rescue yourself from this kind of silliness, please. Your phone is just a machine. It’s not human.
Your Cell Phone Doesn’t Have a Soul
But you do. So . . .
Limit how often you check your phone. Must you cling to it? (As if for dear life?)
How well do you think you’re doing right now, declaring independence from your pacifier. Ahem, I mean, declaring independence from your phone. COMMENT below. Please, share your stories.
Perhaps your quality of life has improved considerably since you declared independence from your phone.
Protect Your Community, Protect Your Consciousness #7.
Are You Multi-Tasking Your Consciousness into NOODLES?

Noodles are delicious. Noodles are for slurping.
But when your consciousness is all strung out, like noodles, that’s not so good.
Look, your human consciousness is one of the greatest gifts to you from God. However, that consciousness isn’t indestructible.
But you can overcome this problem. Which would be smart.
Since really, do you want to become aurically not present to others? Making yourself into a nonentity, automatically forgettable. Like a sweet, ambitious, hardworking man with shredded consciousness, such as the man I aura-profiled at the last link.
Phew! Your solution can be easy.
Don’t shred your consciousness. And if you don’t know how to stop doing that, click on the how-to link just provided!
COMMENT away with stories about yourself, or people you work with, who have been making themselves automatically-and-aurically forgettable to others. Bad news stories are fine. Serving as education. While good news stories would be even better.
Protect Your Community, Protect Your Consciousness #8.
Avoid the Slow Poisons

Avoid poisons. They can ruin more than your looks.
Why do I call alcohol and recreational drugs by the name of “slow poisons”? Because they slowly deaden your consciousness. Plus, they can become very hard to live without. Though you can get past that, thanks to your free will. (And sometimes personal sessions of Energy Spirituality can help too.)
Which slow poisons am I calling out here?
For starters, no alcohol. Please! Drinking alcohol in the Age of Awakening presents new dangers to your energetic wholeness.
Everybody Knows that Booze Destroys Brain Cells, But Weed Is COOL
Really? In reality, weed isn’t cool. It’s a slow poison. (The link just provided will take you to ten different articles, all about the dangers of Marijuana, Grass, Weed, Ayahuasca, and other drugs.)
If you like, COMMENT below. Ask why is it that pot can cause you to feel no pain. Hint: With all due compassion for suffering — that “no pain” outcome is not necessarily a good thing at all.
Protect Your Community, Protect Your Consciousness #9.
Smoothing the Sharp Edges off Your Life?

So chill, no longer quite human.
Did you think the more relaxed you are, the better? Like, you’re more worthy of respect?
Only from people who also worship at the altar of RELAXATION:
- What a poor god to worship! A false god.
- What a pathetic substitute for one’s humanity!
When this lifetime is over, you are going to have a Life Review. God will ask you the two main questions:
What Are the Two Main Life Review Questions?
- What did you learn?
- Which people did you help?
Protect Your Community, Protect Your Consciousness #10
Life Review Questions Are Coming, You Can Be Sure
Experience taught me something about these questions, experience at guiding clients through past-life regressions. Quite some education it was for me: I did this for decades, until the Covid -19 Pandemic.
Imagine with me for a moment. When questions come, during your Life Review, what if???
What if the best you can say for yourself is, “Everybody admired me because I looked so relaxed.” Gack!
Ardent Pursuit of “Relaxation” Counts as a Spiritual Side Trip
What is a Spiritual Side Trip? A waste of your time, that’s what.
Any spiritual or psychological pursuit that makes big promises . . . but doesn’t deliver results? That’s a Spiritual Side Trip.
All of the following choices qualify for that designation. All are bad choices, at least if you wish to use this precious human lifetime to evolve as a soul.
- CBD products — which I’ve aura-researched and found to serve . . . as if a kind of formaldehyde for your consciousness.
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
- Mindfulness Practices in Daily Life
- Mindfulness Meditation
- Other forms of meditation, now that we’re living in the Age of Awakening. Just about any form of meditation is bad for you. Sorry!
Once again, you’re invited to share your questions, your stories about yourself and others you’ve known. COMMENTING is a good thing.
Maybe you’d like to ask me how somebody whose whole life revolved around doing-and-teaching Transcendental Meditation — for decades — would give you the recommendation to avoid almost all meditation techniques. Well, if you’re curious, ask.
In Conclusion

What is wrong with this picture . . . of a family?
Horrendous Trump actions are all over the news. But, when it comes to our lives and communities, our free will still counts.
For those of us who are Americans, and everybody else as well, guess what? One way we can help our society is to care about society. Care about social connection, and then do what we can to make more of that happen.
Bottom Line, What Builds Communities?
People like you. Not The Government.
By following the recommendations in this article, what will you get? Potentially:
- A stronger connection to your own human life.
- More fun. More friends.
- Faster emotional growth.
- More spiritual joy.
- And the moral satisfaction of contributing to a better society. (Even if you’re not one of the people who was responsible for messing it up.)
