There Is No Other Way Than Giving Yourself Over To Stillness (Spiritual Awakening Process)

Spiritual awakening is not about hype, achievements or sainthood.

It’s very ordinary and wherever we are in the process, we will all at some point let go of everything and turn our whole being into stillness.

Not seeking answers outside of ourselves, and not even seek them from within. (There is no seeking going on at all).

Only when we have given ourselves to the stillness (God/Truth) and we are willing to be uncomfortable in that, because it is in the beginning, it’s very uncomfortable to turn our attention away from the world – of course we still take care of the necessities in life (although sometimes barely), only then will we really experience the hand of God move things around. 

There is undoubtedly a period after a spiritual awakening experience where things (life) starts to crumble and everything loses it’s vitality and energy and there’s no oomph to life whatsoever. 

But then one day the time comes when we move willingly into the quietness of life, we put all our attention on God – and then from that place the new unfolds, and it will not be as you might have thought it would be.

And whatever that may be for each and everyone (which we can’t know beforehand); it has to come from stillness – not the fake (ego created) stillness but the pure stillness, the essence of who we are – and then from that place a different expressions is being born and life begins for real.

Everything is different – beautiful, peaceful and .. new.

My shortest post ever I think, but I felt inspired to write it because there are so many people asking the same question (and I have too in the past) “what to do? what to do?” when they are in the process of transition between the old and the new, where they have left the old but the new has not yet been shown, and the “solution” is very simple so it doesn’t need much explanation. 

Many people want to have techniques or means/tools to try to get away or move forward from that stagnant place – and my reply is; you need to get still, don’t resist it, because no matter how hard you try to avoid that, that is what it all will lead to eventually anyway.

To the surrender to stillness. 

It has to, because that’s where life springs from. 

And it’s not passive at all – it’s very dynamic and full of vitality, but it’s not aggressive or assertive and it has no agenda other than enjoying itself.

First there’s plateaus and stagnant phases and periods, and then there’s a river within you that comes alive and streams out towards the world and the expression has nothing to do with you anymore, it’s all God and the expression of that.

The sooner we surrender to that, the sooner it can begin to express itself fully.

How about stepping away from the computer for a while?

Go out and pick some berries or something, like I have just done! 🙂

Definitely worth the investment

Maria showed me how magic can be created by my own Being. It was definitely worth the investment in myself. I’m extremely grateful for my time with her.

 I am so glad that I reached out to you

Maria, you are truly godsend. I cannot describe how happy I am. I have no idea what you did and how you did, but I am truly grateful to you. My words in this email cannot thank you enough. Today is the first day that I woke up feeling as if I am ready to take on the world. I am so glad that I reached out to you. I am truly grateful to you. I will definitely recommend you to my friends and family!

Could not more highly recommend

Maria is the real deal. You will sense it the moment you lay eyes on her. She offered much, much more than I’ve derived from other teachers; highly specific and personal recommendations. It is as though I got a crash graduate course from spirit. Could not more highly recommend!

More transformational than any other thing that I’ve tried

I highly recommend Maria! I don’t even recognize the person who started working with her a few months ago. Maria clearly sees what is blocking, stopping or limiting you. Working with her has been more transformational than any other thing that I’ve tried. Thank you Maria!

I have never felt more aligned to my true self

Maria’s awareness of energies and the conditions of the mind are truly impressive. She knows exactly what’s going on. She is so attuned to other peoples’ energy that she just knows where you’re at. After working with her I have never felt more alive and aligned to my true self.

Andrew B, San Diego, CA, USA

Something happened within me that I cannot explain

After our session, something happened within me that I cannot explain nor would it even make sense to anyone. There was a part of me that felt my being been taken over by a real peacefulness that I’ve never encountered before. Sounds odd but it’s the truth.

– A.

Her unique ability to read your state helped me to breakthrough

I’ve had HUGE shifts in my beliefs. Her undivided attention, presence and unique ability to read your state helped me to breakthrough and release old patterns and replace them with new self-empowering practices that have truly shifted my life. I would highly recommend Maria to anyone. I am forever changed and forever grateful!

– Silvia, Marbella, Spain

My life has radically changed

I finally know my worth. I feel so different now, I feel lighter, happier and more self confident. I treasure the time I spend talking with Maria and look forward to my sessions with her. There has been big changes in my life, synchronicities showing up like magic and I’m constantly blown away at the business and opportunities that I’m attracting. My life has radically changed for the better after I met Maria.

— Robin, New York, USA

Completely transformed my understanding

Maria guided me to realize that relying solely on my mind (like LOA teaches) wouldn’t lead to the changes I wanted. A profound shift took place within me which completely transformed my understanding and my perspective on life. I am eternally grateful to Maria.

Can’t recommend her enough!

Working with Maria was one of the best investments I ever made in myself. I’ve seen immediate shifts in my energy as well as learned to work with my own energy and mind. It has been one of the single most transformational experiences of my life. Can’t recommend her enough!

– Chris, USA

The feeling of peace and freedom is priceless

This feeling of peace and freedom is priceless. Maria is beyond amazing. Had I not experienced it myself, I would probably not believe it. I recommend anyone who is trying hard to be truly free and really start walking down the path of self fulfillment and happiness to book a session with her.

Now I know what is creating my reality

I’m overflowing with gratitude and joy! Life has changed dramatically for me after our time together. I have truly realized on a fundamental level what is creating my reality and it has given me confidence for the first time in my life to finally be ME, I feel liberated to be my authentic self!

— J. Carlson

Beyond grateful for the transformational journey we shared

Maria, I am beyond grateful for the transformational journey we shared. it was nothing less than a miracle that has allowed me come into who I really am. I wake up every morning with a big smile on my face, feeling immense gratitude for just being alive, I can’t explain it, I´m just enjoying this fully. Your guidance has so profoundly changed my life, and I cannot thank you enough.

— R. Los Angeles, USA

The whole session felt as if it was operating on another level

If you can trust one thing in your life right now, trust Maria. You can trust her with your heart and soul. It’s hard to explain, the whole session felt as if it was operating on another level. I’ve never had that kind of experience before. It just felt so much bigger than I anticipated. I can tell you with absolute honesty and conviction that having a session with Maria is life-changing!

– Lisa, USA

I’ve never had a conversation like that before

I just wanted to say thank you so much again for our session yesterday, I’ve never had a conversation like that before and it was truly amazing. I could feel weight lifted as we were talking and for the first time my mind did not try to make sense of things, it was all truly felt in the heart space.
