Understanding Zen State and What It Means to You

Zen is a state of being, not a destination. Sadly, many people are conditioned to look for things outside of themselves to bring them a sense of peace and calm, only to be on that journey for a very long time.

While things like essential oils, yoga, and float tanks can create a temporary zen state, as long as we keep looking outside of ourselves, rather than inward, a constant state of zen will always elude us.

While we may feel inspired for a little while to pursue the outward goals that we’ve created, it is soon replaced with that doubting voice inside of our head that questions whether we’re on track, or getting it ‘right,’ or if we even have what it takes to meet our goals.

Doubt creates a lack of clarity, and a lack of clarity creates a lack of confidence, which leads to stress. The longer we’re in a stressed state, the more removed we are from a state of zen.

Without clarity or confidence, we’re less inclined to move forward with our inspiring goals and visions.

We may even go down the dark rabbit hole of all of the other reasons that our dreams won’t come true, including feeling:

Unworthy
Unqualified
Unsupported
Overwhelmed

As a result of these mind games we play with ourselves, we feel disconnected from our own truth and our natural state of centredness.

The Relationship Between the Akashic Records and Your State of Zen

Working in the Akashic Records is such a powerful and efficient way to create a more permanent state of zen in both our inner and outer environments because it helps get clear and centred in a variety of different areas that directly impact our year ahead, including:

Our sense of direction and purpose
Our gifts and talents that help us express our purpose
What we’re here to master and teach others
Where to focus our efforts that create the greatest alignment
Deep, profound healing of any physical, emotional, mental or spiritual limitations that block alignment

The Akashic Records are an energetic space above our higher self or knowing that holds the vibe of divine love, universal truth, and connection which supports your soul’s purpose.

In this space, people often report a feeling of homecoming. Just connecting with their Records creates an instant feeling of zen.

The Akashic Records holds the truth of who you really are, why you came here, what you are here to master, what you are here to share, and how to align your (un)conscious mind with the truth and purpose of your highest self. And it holds this information from the past, present and future so any answers we need, especially when we’re craving higher guidance on living in a state of zen and creating our best life!

How You Can Use the Akashic Records to Achieve Zen

The great news is that it only takes just a few moments to connect with your own Akashic Records, through the help of your guides, to cultivate an instant state of clarity because in this energetic space we are connecting with the truth of what is (and releasing all illusions that disconnect us from divine truth and love).

Here’s how to easily access your Akashic Records for alignment and peace:

Begin by setting the intention for how you wish to feel and what you would like answered
Enter from a space of neutrality
Create a sacred space and bring a journal to jot down any divine guidance
Call forward your Akashic Record Keepers by simply stating “I would like to access my Akashic Records for my highest good and healing today. Please open them for me now!”
Allow the information to come without forcing it. You may see, hear, sense or ‘know’ the information. Each person is different. There’s no right or wrong. When you allow yourself to trust, rather than question, it will allow this relationship to blossom.
Practice daily to become familiar with how it feels to be in your own Records, and feel a greater sense of clarity and trust each time.

Questions to Ask When Accessing Your Akashic Records

When you are in your Records, you can ask specific questions, like:

“What do I need to release in order to create more zen?”
“What habits do I need to cultivate in order to create more zen?”
“Where is it best to focus my energy this year to maintain peace and harmony?”
“What skills am I being called to expand upon?”
“How can I cultivate an even better relationship with my intuition?”
“How can I create a more harmonious relationship with xxx?”
“How can I attract more wealth and abundance?”

There are limitless possibilities of what information you can access.
