What Is “The Body Transcendent?”

What Is “The Body Transcendent?”

Socrates said that the unexamined life is not worth living. However if you haven’t received the education to live an examined life, such a concept will do little good for you in practical terms!

The Body Transcendent is designed to help you gain this insight and understanding so you may live your life as an Authentic Adult. It’s what we’re biologically designed to be – not just survivors or victims – but as individuals whose spiritual, psychological and physical development are congruent throughout our whole being.

I have some important questions for you…

• Have you been taught how to be a truly Authentic Adult human being?
• Did anyone bother to show you how to develop and use your Intuition and Insight to navigate through life with the trust and confidence to make the right choices?
• Did you take classes to learn how to integrate your thoughts, emotions, and body sensations as one harmonious expression?
• Were you ever taught how Awareness functions throughout your body; and how to tap into this Field of Intelligence so you can meet your needs without hurting others.)
• Did you learn how to use your body sensations to gain access to your subconscious and super-conscious mind and release trauma-based beliefs and behaviors?
• Do you have any idea how to embody your Authentic Self?
• Do you know what Embodiment means?
• Are you a child of God, or an Adult of God?

Let’s face it.  Most of us have never been given the information and skills to thrive as Authentic Adults.  Little, if any, of our time in school was dedicated to learning the “operating system” of a natural human being; or how to grow up into a truly mature and Authentic Adult.

We’re not supposed to live as children or adolescents inside adult bodies.  Being Peter Pan or a pampered princess all your life is not “normal”.  It is an indicator that something has gone horribly wrong in your passage into  Adulthood. Most people have little or no real knowledge or skill in these areas.  And, while it’s not your fault, it is your responsibility to learn who you are, and how to function as an Authentic Adult.

Adulthood needn’t be a burden.  We’re meant to be transcendent human beings, thriving and growing throughout our lifetimes. Being a whole human being, an Authentic Adult, actually enables our greatest creativity and accomplishments.  It empowers magnificent expression of our highest capacity and abilities.

Yet, for most of us, this is not the case – not by a long shot! Our natural development has been dramatically interfered with, from ongoing traumatic experiences that have never been healed; incomplete experiences that have never been made whole; and inadequate, inappropriate education.  We’ve become fragmented and strung out through time in a state of “Arrested Development”.

The primary “operating system” of most adults today is through the fear-based, fragmented ego which functions through competition, territorialism, survival and ritualism. The dominant pattern of experience is victim-victimizer.  Violence, whether mild (judgments of yourself and others), traumatic (physical, emotional, sexual abuse), or severe (murder, war) is an integral part of daily life.

Without the appropriate education and skills to heal and transform, life remains a self-fulfilling prophecy of repeated violence; the “same stuff, different day” way of life. When properly coached, you can learn to consciously access the “lost boys or girls” within you and help these “orphans” release and heal their trauma-based stories. Then you can finally “grow up” into the fully mature and embodied Authentic Adult you are meant to be!

“When the body is fully open, we can trust our own feelings and actions; they anchor us in an inner home.” – Marion Woodman

Being an Authentic Adult means awakening to your Divine Self. It means knowing who you are, what your life purpose and passion is, and how to manifest it in harmony with the greater good of all life. You are no longer driven by your ego, your past, your family or your cultural conditioning; but from the Truth of your Being. Truth functions in you as naturally as your heart beats, or your lungs breathe. This is the operating system of an Authentic Adult.  This is “Homo Spiritus,” – a Divinely Embodied Human Being.

The primary pattern of experience with the shift to Authentic Adulthood, or Homo-Spiritus, becomes mutuality and transcendence.  Each of us is seen as a unique embodiment of God.  We treat ourselves and each other with love, mutual respect, and compassion. We don’t have to be told, threatened, or legislated to do this. We do it because it is in our nature to do so.

The Body Transcendent process helps you learn how to live as an Authentic Adult. It’s not enough to just wake up into your Divine Self, but to learn how to integrate, or embody it into your physical cells. You learn to work with your body sensations, changing “cellular memories” and releasing unconsciously created limiting emotions, beliefs and behaviors.  Once this conditioning is resolved, you can replace your “Arrested Development” patterns with those of your Divine Self and live as an Authentic Adult.

For the first time, you can start to create a life that naturally expresses your True Nature because you are comfortable within your own skin. You are truly at peace from within because your body is no longer twisted and distorted from bracing against unresolved pain.  You can finally relax and reflect your true stature in life. Gravity becomes your ally, supporting you in grace and ease, instead of pulling you down to struggle and expend great effort to “stand up” for yourself. You move from existing as Child of God to thriving as an Adult of God!

If you feel something deep within you resonating with what you’ve been reading here, then you’re ready to learn how to truly “grow up” into the Authentic Adult you are inherently designed to be.

I’m captivated by the exploration of our Divinity into Form.  I invite you to join me on this phenomenal journey to know your Self as a truly actualized human being, and create a world based on Authentic Adulthood, perhaps for the first time in recorded history!
