TNT SpiritWorks (00:01.39)
So in this episode, Tom, I'd like to talk a bit about the demystifying the Ascension process. Okay. So we're all going through some places right now in history and in our and where we're at as souls on this planet that I want to talk a little bit about what is the Ascension process? How are we affected mind, body and spirit and how to keep moving through it in a way that's more balanced for people?

And I think that, you know, is it related to my everyday life or is it just an idea that I have about someday I'm going to ascend? Practical and being practical with it. OK, so first I want to start with what is the actual definition of ascension? It's actually in the I was in I looked it up. The definition is a spiritual concept describing the gradual process of achieving higher consciousness, awareness and transformation.

Sounds good. It's about actually like shedding old patterns embracing more of a spiritual connection and realigning with higher states of being So I know like in the Bible It's really about was going from like the physical state to the heavenly state like Jesus Christ did into heaven They said yeah, absolutely So I know for myself lately. I've noticed this in a lot of things. There's a lot going on

In the in especially I've noticed physical. So I guess we can start with the body. Okay. I know for myself every couple days or so in the last few weeks, I've I've had a headache. I've had I've felt things in my heart and my liver and I feel a lot of things shifting and changing. And then it's like only for a short period of time, I'll have an awareness or a pain. And then and or I will I'll fill out a source I won't feel good. You know, you've you've noticed I'm like a Tom, I just don't feel good.

And then I'll go to bed and I'll sleep. And then the next day I wake up and I'll be fine. And to me, for myself, that's part of, of, you know, this shift of energy for myself. And I'm noticing, there's also people around me that have had some big things going on. you know, some big things with, with, know, different parts of their body that are shifting and changing. And matter of fact, the, my mom was talking to a group of women that she knows, back when she used to live in Florida and

TNT SpiritWorks (02:26.668)
Like this lady said, you know, it's really weird that there's like four or five of you, the women who actually all have like foot and leg things going on at the same time. I know for me that's about direction, right? Well, like attracts like and like attracts like, but it's so interesting. And I know other people too, that are going through some major like realizations of, of things that, that are help or they need to like situate and get healthier before kind of moving forward with stuff.

Okay, how have you noticed things? Have you noticed things for yourself in the body aspect? Well, that's something that I've noticed that you're really tuned into is how you're physically feeling. And then you work with your spiritual helpers or your guidance to kind of discern why am I picking this up, you know, and a lot of the times it's because of something that's going on in your environment or

You know, I hear you share about somebody close to you going through something. And then I notice that once you identify it, you know, with your guidance and kind of recheck that with your guidance and discern where that's coming from and it goes away. So I noticed for myself is if I'm moving through some patterns, you know, that I've lived in the past or patterns of energy patterns are exhibited in my behavior that I can feel.

somewhat out of sorts, but I've learned to just sort of carry on through it, know, gut it out. And instead of, wait a minute, why am I feeling a little funny or, you know, a little tired? All of sudden I feel a little something funny, you know, what's that about? So you're a great example of, know, just checking it out and not accepting that every physical pain is necessarily my, you know, true feelings. It's not my

not my situation, but I can see that if I buy into that, it can become something that manifests within me. So, know, various concepts attract certain feelings. I, know, when you work with your guidance and, you know, many other mystics or psychics or people that work with spiritual healing, you know, there's meaning behind various illnesses and so forth. But like you say, like direction is legs and, and

TNT SpiritWorks (04:46.296)
You know, so those are some clues for us to work with our own spiritual helpers and get our own answers as to what's what concept am I holding on to that's allowing that energy to move in? Yeah, so I guess what I hear you saying, Tom is gathering a bigger spiritual picture for an individual of, know, like you're saying, like why sometimes I don't even need to know the why, but I recognize that there's that I'm going through something like

You know, I know people that'll be like, you're sick and you feel like crap. You're sick again. No, I'm not sick. I'm moving. There's energy in my body that's moving through and I'm not sick. And I know for myself too, like around Thanksgiving, you know, we had, we had my daughter and the baby and her husband, which was lovely. And I'm, and we had a great heart opening day, right? But then my heart hurt later on the afternoon because I'm still disconnected from the other soul that I brought in. So it's, it's interesting too, that I noticed how

Depending upon what I'm going through on day to day, my energy shifts and changes, but it also affects my physical body. So gathering that bigger picture as to why am I processing this or what am I going through has really helped me a lot. For me, I noticed that reminds me to recognize just how sensitive I am and not assume an answer, but really cleanse, work with our cleansing technique.

call my guidance close, get a key word or two to help me discern what's really going on. And so I would say that like, so when your heart hurts because of the other disconnect, what that reminds me of is like what comes to me as you were sharing, not that I knew this before we started, but what kind of comes to me is like, oh, there's still a concept there that I have.

you know, which I picked up in my first seven years or it's a, it's a concept we have, you generally in society that, uh, you know, I'm still, I haven't quite fully identified that I, you know, concept yet, but it's a growing, it's it's a step-by-step process of ascending through all that. Right. And I liked that you said that ascending through all of it. So, cause honestly,

TNT SpiritWorks (07:08.014)
And you know, there's so much in the spiritual community right now talking about the Ascension and the next six weeks and this and that it's like, I truly believe that every soul comes back to earth to go through the Ascension process on and whatever consciousness they're going through, whatever level of consciousness they're going through. So I believe the whole time we're here, but just as it seems like it's been pinpointed lately and you know, and really brought to the light of all this is the timeframe of it happening. Well,

It happens when we come back in the body. Do you believe that Tom? Well, what strikes me is you share that as, this is something similar to what I've been picking up, you know, over the last week or so is it really my perspective is I'm here going through an ascension process. I'm learning and growing. I'm evolving. And the speed at which I do that is going to be based on, you know, my, how, how badly I want to ascend. And I think.

There's a point where, you know, the suffering, you just get tired of it. So it's like, let's, it's time to move on to a different, I better get the facts from my guidance. I better tune into my true feelings and help turn that experience into wisdom. You know, as I have the full idea, I love that. I want to say that again, that I love that I'm actually here ascending. It's not something I'm going to do when I pass on.

I'll just, I'm going to rise to the level of consciousness that, you know, I sort of work with here. And I think that, you know, more the religious training is, well, you know, you're here to suffer and then, you know, in certain dogmas, not all dogmas, but in certain, base, you know, the idea is more the interpretation of all that is that I'm going to suffer here so that I can be rewarded in heaven and ascend into heaven, but really the evolutionary process is here.

Absolutely. Why why we're why we're in these physical bodies. So that's the first thing I really wanted to mention was the body. So let's talk a little bit more now about the mind and how we're taking in so much information. A lot of these things that come to me as far as the mind is like a lot we talk about on spiritual perspective discerning news and how there's so much out in the world right now.

TNT SpiritWorks (09:29.364)
that's being brought to the surface, exposed truths on all kinds of different levels, and how that's shifting our mind to ascend. Yeah, well, certainly it seems like in every area of life, know, whether it's pharmaceuticals or health or diet or the military industrial complex or politics,

everything seems to be going through this, you might say a revelation, know, where things are being revealed. extraterrestrials, we were talking about that with my sister this morning, and how, you know, there's a new movie coming out on disclosure, where now the government and high officials are admitting that there's these extraterrestrials that have been visiting and so on and so forth. So it boy, like every area, our eyes are being opened.

or truths are being revealed. And I know for me, it can, it can seem a little overwhelming, like, my God, there's all this. That's not the picture I was raised with. and yet there's truth in the picture I was raised with, you know, there's truth in that. So, that's what I see, you know, I guess is, so it must, it must be a precursor to moving beyond, you know, some of the concepts we have that, you know,

help us feel safe or keep us organized. Yeah, absolutely. so, you know, going to the mind part and I know for myself, I'm with you too, as far as you know, there's so much information that sometimes it is, it overwhelms me a bit. But when, when I have tuned into, and this is a really great key is tuning into what parts of all the things going on right now do I really need to be a part of or understand for my journey.

I was talking to someone their day and we were talking about how, you know, going through life, I've recognized that I've mastered certain things and there's other things that I really need to, you know, be aware of and master. think that's a real key for the mind aspect is for each individual soul. What are you really needing to be involved in and what, what do you need to intake and, know, and to move into your, your mind and your intellect and your understanding in order for you to

TNT SpiritWorks (11:54.467)
move to the next mastery of what you're really here to do. Yeah, my favorite example in recent times is that in business, you know, I've been noticing how at times I'll feel under pressure, you know, and it's not like a huge pressure. It's I enjoy the work that I do. But there'll be a little subtle nervousness or a little subtle feeling of competition. And sometimes it's not so subtle. Or wanting to please, you know, customers and those kinds of things and

or a customer's upset and really it's got nothing to do with me. They came in upset and I'm, I just work there, you know, in their, they, they have a real attitude, you know? So what I've been tuning into lately and my guidance kind of helped me be aware of this is that no matter what I do and no matter how good I am at the job or what I'm involved with, I am still everlasting as a soul.

And so that word everlasting has a lot of, know, there's a good feeling. There's a positive feeling behind it. That, and now I look to improve. I always look to be more efficient and improve my service to others. But even if I'm not that good at it, you know, I don't have the mental checklist yet to go through a process or procedure. You know, I'm still learning in about that area. My intellect is still being, you know, you might say,

enlightened in that area, or, know, given those facts that I can remember and work with, that the feeling of being everlasting, it's just like, you know, no matter what, life is like the blink of an eye and the time span of eternity is the sort of feeling I get. And, you know, another feeling that stimulates is there really is nothing wrong. I'm just here to learn and grow. And no matter what, I am going to be everlasting.

So that reminds me, one of the reasons I bring it up is it reminds me of what you're saying when you opened with, know, this idea of ascending is while I'm here, I'm ascending while I'm here, that changes my perspective back to something that helps me relax. So can I share like the results of that? Okay. So as I was...

TNT SpiritWorks (14:15.274)
one day at work for a few days, you know, I was really tuning into just really going rolling with the flow. And no matter what, there was never any reason for me to feel pressure, you know, based on somebody else's attitude, you know, I'm just there to be of service and you know, having a healthy detachment from other people's experience and just, you know, trying to help out not taking things personally. And I noticed that

You know, was hoping to hit some key performance indicators and get some recognition all of a sudden, as I'm just working on being in my feelings and staying relaxed and respecting where my energy is at, like staying in that relaxed present mode. And, like I say, but moving towards wanting to be a service, I started receiving all this recognition. And it didn't, it was my energy was what had shifted.

And all of a sudden things around me started to shift and I almost went, it can't be this easy. You know, it can't be this easy, but it is this easy. So there's a real world experience of instead of moving from my concepts, you know, what I've been taught is I'm supposed to hit certain numbers and I'm supposed to do this and I'm supposed to do that. And of course I'm happy to, I started hitting those numbers by just focusing on my energy, you know, how I was feeling.

tuning into that, those true feelings of love in the sense of I'm just here to be of service and, you know, offer opportunities to people, offer services. And, I think that about sums it up. That's a good part of the demystifying the Ascension process versus, you know, being all like, my God, I'm not ascending and I'm not doing my work. And I'm not, which I hear from people sometimes, right? And I'm not on my path and I'm not like,

relax. really, think that's the key to it is it's so simple. It's simpler than we think about. And you know what, I like what you said too about that, you know, when you mentioned how you're just part of, you know, everything you're everlasting. Like that's part of the, that's part of the spirit. The buying body spirit is that, you know, we never die. We're always going to be here or be somewhere, right? Somewhere, maybe on another planet or whatever, or back with the collective.

TNT SpiritWorks (16:43.266)
but the fact that it's simpler than we make it out to be demystifying the Ascension process and making it so, you you recognize that, you know, it's not about the fact that I'm not going to 10 workshops and meditating for 20 hours or, you know, chanting, you know, to my navel or whatever, you know, people want to do. It's the holier than now. No. You know, I have perfect another way for me to share this is like,

my behavior is perfect. So therefore I'm perfect. Right. Or my behavior, my behavior hasn't been perfect. Therefore I'm not going to be everlasting. You know, it's that's, that's confusion. That's more that's taking the truth in say, a religious idea or concept. And it's become too intellectual rather than well, what are my feelings? Tell me.

Yeah. And we were just talking this morning with your sister and in our green room and the living room about how, know, all three of us are in different places right now in our, you know, our careers and how, you know, there'll be some shifting and changing down the road to, to perhaps go into something else. But the big thing that I feel about, you know, moving into maybe we'll call it an Ascension process, right? To the next level of mastery, whatever is just showing up, just showing up to

in this moment of time where, and also knowing that wherever each person's at, like we'll say ourselves, we're in the right place for the right timing to work with the right people and the right energy. And I know we all share different aspects of, you know, some challenges and some pros and things that are happening in our businesses that we're working in, but, we're all embracing it. We're all showing up. That's me. It's a big key is that showing up. and you know, some folks

have mastered areas that I haven't mastered and I've mastered areas that they haven't mastered. And so, you know, it's really up to me what I'm getting out of that, you know, opportunity. I've attracted that situation or I'm in that situation because of the concepts I have and the opportunities I have. But if I look at it from the inside out, that's a big key I know for me.

TNT SpiritWorks (19:03.308)
What I know for myself also is I am fully involved and fulfilled with where I'm at. But when it's done, it's time to move on. Like I just know when things are done and it's time to, you know, exit stage left as we'll say it. So one thing I want to talk a little about too is, you know, the transformation or the transcending, you know, that impacts your entire being, which is what we're talking about. Not just one part. It's not just the physical. It's not just the mental. It's not just spiritual. It's

your whole being. so in, you know, giving ourselves grace, honestly, through the process and knowing that, you know, what we're each experiencing at this time is exactly what we've put in place to experience for this moment in time. I feel for me, when I just, you know, balance that with, well, I'm everlasting. You know, as I tune into the feeling of that, and I accept that.

You know, I accept because that's my true feelings anyways. My true feelings feels that, you know, I'm still faced with the day to day challenges. You know, today we're faced with the challenge of shoving a lot of snow and, maybe have an event that's not going to happen and all those, you know, all the normal stuff that goes on in the physical material area. But I guess what I'm hearing from my guidance is it's just, you know, how do I, how do I pay attention to what I'm here to learn and grow?

You know, it could just be a key word of, you know, relaxing, being patient, know, communicating simple things to change my habit patterns that, you know, keep me bogged down, but just sort of recognizing them, releasing them, implementing solutions, just practicing more being the real me. There's something else I wanted to share about when you're ready. know, on planet earth,

The more that religions have this idea of a hierarchy, we're always going to struggle with that because spiritually, as souls, we're all equal. Now on planet earth and material world, know, there's some have more than others, but from a spiritual perspective for the soul, when we're back out in the universe and even here, there's no greater than or lesser than. Now there's souls that have more experience. There's souls that have more training.

TNT SpiritWorks (21:27.918)
that are their souls that have more direction than I do, or less direction than I do. And that's all part of the learning and growing experience. But planet Earth has got this ideas, the concepts here are about power and survival of the fittest and the competition, you know, competition, which can be there's positive to competition, you know, I want to improve my service.

And, it's great that I sort of set a goal in a timeframe and, know, it's a measure of how well I'm doing, you know, in terms of being the real me, but kind of what I'm sharing about is that like, wow, if I move from the inside out, I make sure my energy is relaxed. I'm positive. I'm not like taking things personally, you know, the areas where I needed to. And like I say, other people might even not have been to have those issues. They've got a lot of experience in that area. So they don't take things personally, or they.

stay detached. So we're constantly, guess, you we're going to find new situations where we refine, I refine what, you know, I'm learning about. Yeah. And the insights I get about that is it's also comes with wisdom. So the longer we're here in these, in on the planet, the longer we're in these bodies and the longer we're in relationships and we're in jobs and we're having experiences and opportunities that really amplify and expand who we are as a soul.

that gives us more wisdom to work with. And I think that's why I really enjoy, you know, having this podcast and sharing on it, especially with you, Tom and Tiger and others that come on as guests is that the accumulation of wisdom that we have as, as a team and the collaboration as a team and as souls, it just, really can shine how, how, you know, like if, if you really embrace life and share, you know, the, wisdom that comes through, it's, it's really amazing.

Well, yeah. And, you know, I was, we're observing, we're talking about enthusiasm. And, last night we went to, you know, a community event in where we live and Teresa, it's snowing. So Teresa says in the middle of the street, the streets were blocked off. She goes, I want to make a snow angel. And here she is a very mature woman laying down, making snow angels, making, having a laugh about it. And I thought like that.

TNT SpiritWorks (23:50.955)
She's so masterful and her enthusiasm is so genuine, genuine. And it was, you know, it's great so that when I'm really in my feelings and I'm being me, you know, it sparks a healing and others, it helps all of us kind of reawakened. yeah, that's right. That's I have that opportunity, at least right now. What happens tomorrow? Who knows? But you know, we never know for sure, but I'm in the present and I'm enjoying it. So that's a healing.

just being ourselves. Yeah. And so like last night, you know, I've always been very enthusiastic and always been very, you know, like, I'll do this or that, but I've held back for long time too. So now I'm at a point in my life, I'm like, if I want to make a snow angel in the middle of the street, I'm making the snow angel. I'm not, there's something in me that has shifted and maybe it's part of that ascension process that I'm like, I'm at a different level now where I'm just like, I want to full on

do that because I'm in this moment and the opportunity is here and there's a beautiful layer of snow and it's white and no one's walked over it and I'm just going to create it. So I think that's also what I want to share about the wisdom and just and not holding back, just not holding back anymore. good. Yeah. And you know, we talk about working with our spiritual helpers or our guidance. know, everyone here is learning and growing. It's just an

even when I'm not working with my guidance, I'm having opportunities to learn and grow. The ascension process is going to take place. When I work with my guidance, it just goes faster, it's smoother, it's a little easier. I have these aha moments, as I love to say, and I am more in the right place at the right time. Plus, if I share with other people what I'm learning or what's...

Like I had the opportunity to share this morning about how, you know, I really found it's just me monitoring my energy as a friend of mine used to always say, and staying relaxed and in that, you know, positive feeling. Cause those are my true feelings. Because if I really, you know, as I tuned back into that everlasting feeling, I go, nothing's really a big deal. You know, it's just an opportunity.

TNT SpiritWorks (26:09.59)
Now I have to deal with the practical things in life, but when I tune back into like some people like meditation, just tune back into the big picture of spirit and what I'm really here to do. There's a, it really sparks my enthusiasm for all my opportunities. So one working with my guidance and then also being able to outflow or share with other people, you know, which Teresa's putting together stimulates, there's an idea for me. Like,

That's another angle on what I'm putting together. So we need that. We need that for our Ascension. Yeah. And so for what I'm putting together for this episode and the Ascension process is there's, guess, two real keys. One is stay relaxed in where you're at, where I'm at, where we're all at individually as souls. And also have fun. Like have fun with the process. And I guess there's three really. And the third one is...

to not buy into all the crap that's out there about you're not ascending, you got to do this to ascend. Don't buy into that. You're in the perfect place for what you've come to do and you're ascending. We're all ascending. Yeah, I think when I just tuned back into who I am, and then I start to notice the habits and attitudes in my thinking that I have, you know, or a little emotional reactions to things.

Okay, I'm going to practice. Let's change that thought. Let's, let's, what are my true feelings? Tell me, my true feelings tell me that everything's in the right place or my true feelings tell me, Hey, I better get moving. It's time to, it's time to move with this opportunity, you know? So, that's what all rediscovery is for me. It's reawakening what I really already know. And then how do I implement that into this situation here? I have on planet earth of learning and growing and.

implementing it. thank you for listening into another episode of Enthusiastically Spiritual and this one was called Demystifying the Ascension Process.
