How Marketing Hijacks Your Awakening

Perfect backdrops and polished faces are easy to sell. Truth is harder, and that is the point. I show up this morning, fresh out of the shower, to talk about the kind of authenticity that cannot be filtered: the decision to stop outsourcing your healing to the next product, the next trend, or the next “expert” who promises instant transformation.

Grand Rising Humanityville. Teresa Marie, Ambassador of Chi here, host of Free to Just Be, that authentic and real podcast. And if you're looking for oh the beautiful people, the beautiful people, the the best backdrop in the background, everything just perfect on my face, you're at the wrong place because this old woman here is wanting to bring back real authenticity, genuineness. And I was genuinely asked today to come before you on this camera and do my podcast, even though I just get out of the shower. I haven't blow-dried my hair. I don't wear makeup, so there you have it. I might not look like I have eyes, but I don't care because I am free to just be the beautiful spark of God that I am. And today I'm gonna talk about some of that stuff because it is rampant right now. Um, because you see, no one can bar us from self-knowledge, but there are so many out there right now that will sell you a map that will lead you nowhere, and I want to bring to our attention some of that. So I have um some of my journal pages in front of me. See, here's my journal, and so you might see me referring to that, and I have uh a couple of quotes that I'm gonna share as well. I'm a quote girl. So what do we see happening all over the world, all over the media, especially? I want us to think about what we see. Um, so we're gonna take a little trip backwards before we come to the present moment, okay? So I want you to think about how marketing deceptions happen, because then we're gonna apply those um realities to our awakening journey, okay? So just think about a few of the items that many of you are aware of. Um, if you're listening and watching a podcast called Fee, I'm assuming, which is a dangerous thing to do, but I'm assuming that you are somewhere in the process of awakening. So let's look at some products real quick. Margarine, for example. Margarine was pushed out into the media as heart healthy, much better for our bodies than butter, for example. And then, of course, it was later revealed that it was packed with trans fats and plastics, by the way. Plastics are in everything now, and it didn't help our heart, in fact, it increased heart disease. What about fruit juices? Oh, it's a natural source of vitamins, and you want to give it to your children, and the reality is it was stripped of all of the fiber and the nutrients, and it was packed with sugar, and we wonder why there's so much diabetes in our society right now. What about Sketchers Rocker shoes? Do you remember those back uh in the 80s and the early 90s? You know, you got these rocker sneakers, and oh, it was supposed to tone your muscles while you walk. You just put them on, and your legs will look better just because you're walking in them. And of course, there was no proven benefits. In fact, people were having injuries and hurting their ankles wearing those shoes. Let's go a little more modern. Look at your 7-Eleven stores or your convenience stores, and you'll see rows and rows of vitamin water. Water that they have put stuff in. This should be your first clue that it's a suspect item. Anything that God made that somebody's going to try to fix or enhance is a massive red flag. But yet, thousands of people buy vitamin water thinking that it's going to be better for their bodies when in fact they have put 32 grams of sugar in these vitamin waters. So we have to remain awake. What about expensive gadgets? You see, what we want in the program of the herd mentality is we want microwave results. We want instantaneous healing. We want, and by the way, that is still available to us. God still heals. But that's a whole nother um realm that we're not going to talk about today. Um, and in order to get those rapid results, what we do as a people, because we have been trained, we have been programmed to do so. And what what do I mean? Well, think about it. A new item comes out, right? The perfect example is the iPhone. How many people do you know, maybe you yourself, that literally wait until the next version of the iPhone comes out. And every time a new iPhone comes out, these people will drop$800,$1,200 on a new phone. That is the herd mentality. Whatever bell or whistle or or um, you know, whatever's being marketed the best, people flock to. And that is the herd mentality program. In fact, dare I say, it's probably like a full-blown system at this point, because everybody in every way, shape, form, and fashion is part of this herd mentality. And if if you don't recognize that, then I'm sorry to say you have a long way to go on this transformation journey. But lots of people are waking up to this, but they're still not aware that anytime we're looking outward, we want to reach out when the job is inside. It's inside, folks. We cannot avoid going inside. Um, I love Jim Rohn, um, who of course uh has now become famous for the one who uh first inspired uh Tony Robbins. And his quote is you cannot hire someone to do your push-ups for you. And that is exactly, you know, what all of us in the quote-unquote awakening community, and that's where I want to really focus today, because within this awakening community, there are all sorts of charlatans, and we have to be very careful and recognize, and and I have been suspect many, many times. Um fallen prey, you you want your best, you want to reach your highest self, you want to be all that God created you to be. So we try anything and and listen to anybody and been there, done that. I I, you know, as I've shared numerous times over the years I've been podcasting, I mean, four cults. I was involved in four cults, how many different gadgets that I bought uh that were gonna move energy or or um was gonna help make my body feel better. And the more I live on this planet in this 3D duality uh dualistic um energy, I have recognized over and over and over again that the real true work is inside. And you'll hear many people say that, but then at the same time, they will say, You need to come to me, you need to pay this amount of money. Um, and I understand about capitalism and and yes, we should be paid for our time and all of that kind of stuff, but I'm also very aware that the world mucks things up, and what does God do? He simplifies. So that's kind of where I want to talk about. Um, you know, let me see. Robert Anthony, for example, here's here's my quote part. He said, the opposite of bravery is not cowardice, but conformity. Okay, so this is the wide road, this is where everybody goes. Um, and let me take it, let me take it right to the present. Now I am a moving meditation coach. And the reason I haven't really put myself out there, and I'm gonna be, I am gonna be so authentically honest and genuine with you right now. You see, my massive struggle is um I've I've taught my moving meditations um for about three years now. I do my moving meditations every single day. Why? Because it has profoundly affected my physical health, my emotional health, and my spiritual health. And I want to share it with everybody. Here's my dilemma. The world tells us that we need to get online, we need to push our marketing, we need to charge hundreds of dollars, and this has always been my issue since I was a kid. I I'm gonna bring this up, and if you've followed me for years, then you might have heard this, so I'm sorry for the redundancy, but that it perfectly um uh is an exemplification of what I'm talking about. I remember being a teenager, and uh, you know, we want to do all the beauty and the hair things, and and I remember um I had just gotten one of my first jobs. I was probably 15, 16, 17 in that age group, and it was uh a hair product, like a shampoo and a conditioner, and it was super, super expensive. Um, I know that it took me a long time to save up for it, but I wanted to try this product. And the product was amazing, it did great things for my hair, but it it wasn't sustainable. I could not afford um a two-figure shampoo when I was a teenager, and yet the confidence level of teenagers, for example, would have been so raised if they had this available to them. Now, of course, I'm sure that that product was full of chemicals and all that, but I'm using this as an example. And even back then, as a teenager, I thought to myself, I don't get it. Why do they put such a high price on this item that should be made available to everybody? Why is it that the very best of the best in this capitalistic economy that we live in is only available to those that have um this incredibly large income? And that is that is the model that I've always seen. That the best health care, the best um vehicles, the the best, the best, the best, the best, is only available to those that have lots of money. And to me, that is upside down. Um, and I think of my my brother and King Jesus. And what did he tell his disciples? Take nothing with you. They were going to go out and share all the lessons that he taught them, and he told them, take nothing with you. No money, the clothes on your back, and go from town to town. And if people don't listen to you, just brush the dust off your feet and go to the next town. And God will be your provider. That's Jehovah Jirah. He's our provider. And yet what we do is we go in the world, and one of the programs, and this is this is a tough one, and this is my dilemma. It's you know, all of my passions. For example, um, here's another one. Um, I love to write, I love to speak to people. I my f my most favorite job over the years, and I've had many, many, many, many, many positions, was being a feature writer at the Grandview Herald in Grandview, Washington. And I got to go uh and interview people. Uh, there could be somebody in that little city that was interesting to me, and I would go and I would do a feature article about them. And it was one of the poorest paying jobs that I ever had. And that is often the case. My passion is to help humanity. My passion is to put into my brothers and sisters in Humanityville's hands tools that have helped me. And I have gone through uh the troubleshooting. I I I have bought and and tried and attempted so many things that didn't work. And so now I want to share the things that have worked for me, but I don't want to charge hundreds of dollars. To me, that's that's like not pursuing my passion. And maybe it's because I feel like that's what I'm to do, to go into the world and be that lighthouse and be the salt of the earth, and trust God that He's going to provide for me. And so that is my dilemma currently, right now. And the reason I'm talking about this topic is the adulteration that is now occurring online and in marketing to moving meditations. Meditation um solely, all right, let's let's look at that for a minute. There are so many quote-unquote meditation apps, and I want you to just walk through the mental picture of this, okay? So just use your imagination. Uh, when I taught preschool, I used to say, you know, put on your thinking cap, tie it under your chin, and let's imagine for a minute. Imagine that you have heard via Facebook, for example, that we are so busy as people that we need to slow our role. You've heard all of this, and we need to learn how to be. I speak about this all the time. And so now you have found this meditation app and you think, oh, well, this'll be so helpful. And you have yourself a half hour that you are gonna just sit and be. But now you have this app. So you get into your chair, or you lay on your bed, or you're sitting on your um blanket outside, and now you open the app. So now you have an electronic tool that you know we won't talk about the radiation and all the all the goodies that go along with that, and it's in your hand. And now you're messing with the app, and maybe you start to become frustrated because you can't can't get the app open. And then the app opens and and it you you push the button, and it's going to let you know when when you're done. And so now that 30-minute window that you had, you have spent 20 of it doing what? And this is key because this is what the matrix does. It will remember it's distraction. So you were distracted for 20 minutes. Now, let's remind ourselves what the darkness, what the devil, what the matrix Mary Goran is absolutely the best at. And that is now remind yourself the only ones that can create are God and us. We are sparks of God, and we are we are beings that can create. Mamas create life. We use our imagination and our mind and our body to create different things in life, right? The enemy of our soul, the darkness, the matrix, cannot do that. All it can do is replicate, duplicate, or adulterate things that have already been created. Let's look at AI, for example. I don't know if you've seen the videos where people actually show you. All you need to do is you can go to the free to just be site, for example, take my site, and copy the transcript that Theresa Marie created. Like as you can see right now, I am not looking down at notes, I'm just speaking from my heart. It's coming from my heart. And I am creating these sound waves, putting out these words, my ideas, what God has given me, and yet there are people that will copy my transcript, put it into an AI mechanism, and say, make this sound like me. See? There you have the proof that the matrix cannot create, and so let's apply that to what's happening in media right now. Meditation apps. The main thing that we are being groomed to do is not only to reach outward for modalities and tools and and methods so that what we can avoid, like the plague, going inside, running home to the spark of God that we are, running to God and saying, God, what do I need to do? Because the truth is, true meditation is now let's imagine the genuine, authentic meditation. You literally go somewhere by yourself. Preferably, you know, as far as Theresa Marie is concerned, you're gonna go out in nature and you're gonna go off away from the world, and you're just gonna sit. And the first ten minutes your mind is gonna go apeshit, and it's gonna go and you're gonna sit. And you're gonna sit and you're gonna breathe. And eventually you're gonna look around and you're gonna just feel the energy of the earth. And this doesn't happen in five minutes. This happens over months, days, consistency. And this is what the world does not want. We want microwave mentality, we do not want discipline, we do not want what we what? I take my moving meditations, for example. Let me take the woo-woo out of it. The truth is, we do have an energy body around us that comes out from our sternum or from our solar plex or heart chakra, about seven or eight feet out all the way around us. That is our responsibility, which of course nobody tells us that, right? And everything is energy, everything. Our words, our emotions, this desk. Our body is nothing more than a consciousness being contained in this energy body that is moving so slow that we are solid, right? The faster the energy moves, the harder it is to see it. The slower the energy moves, then we have solid things. Everything is energy. So for example, the spiritual bypasser will say, I do not want to look at my anger. I don't want to look at my sadness. And this is what uh well just put this machine on your head. Or just just use this product and and you'll feel better and you'll forget. But you see, that's suppression, that's stuffing down the very things that God wants us to dissolve, to get rid of, to enter into the freedom that is Christ, God consciousness. But that means we have to face our darkness. And nobody, just like Jim Rome said, nobody's gonna come in and do your push-ups for you, nobody is gonna come in and clear all that crap that you have held on to. And when we don't deal with that stuff, I I you know some people might not like the terminology, and I'm sorry, but to me, it's like the floating shit of life. We have all of this unresolved crap that we have attached to. And when we don't clear our energy body, when we, you know, something triggers us, these are very key words, and they have become adulterated too. But it is our job to look at that stuff and be brave and bold enough to say, wait a minute, I just got so angry, and it's not about that person that cut me off. There's something else, and that is the Holy Spirit saying, Hello, there is something blocking my channel to you, my daughter. Can you look at that? Because, see, every time we try to have a conversation, that emotion, that thought pattern is coming between the channel between you and I. And I would like for you to look at it and recognize it that that it is not you. You are perfect in my sight, and there is this debris that you need to clear. Nobody's gonna clear it for us, see. So nobody tells us that. Nobody reminds us that it is inside work, it's very brutal work, it's uh emotional, it takes a lot of energy, it takes a lot of courage, but it's the only way to clear that channel and have freedom. Freedom is in here, but all that stuff that we have taken on since we came to this planet, all the false beliefs, all the programs, all the systems, everything to do with the Matrix Mary-Goran. We will go round and around on that ride until we recognize that we have to do some work. All right, so now let's go back to the moving meditation. Five years ago, when I discovered that the simple movements of a very ancient moving meditation that's very much like Tai Chi absolutely transformed my meditation blocks of time. Why? Because energy is meant to move in and through your body, and we haven't been taught that. Now, it took me a good year, weeks and weeks and weeks of first just learning the movement, right? And then that movement, I began to feel energy within my system. See, energy is always moving through us, but we are so busy in our head, we're so mucked up with these bad emotions that we have forgotten how it feels, right? And lo and behold, even in our churches today, it just so frustrates me. You can't go by your feelings, feelings lie, and that, my friends, is a lie. Feelings were put there by God as alert systems. Our nervous system will tell us, hey man, there's something wrong, and we need to fix it. But we have been trained to ignore that. So it is not a microwave mentality. So my moving meditation classes, for example, I have uh a few core students that have done the movements for a long time. They know the movements. So now when we come together, we can feel that energy, right? But it is like a discipline, it is something that you have to consistently begin to do on a daily basis, and this is why now we see apps. What are they doing? Oh, my mother is 65 years old and she has never exercised. What can you do for her? Well, all she needs to do is pick up this Tai Chi walking app and here's what she looked like before she started, and look what she looks like in six weeks. Humanity. That's AI. There is no way you can have a complete result in anything in six weeks. Wake up, wake up, wake up. And then it's you know free. I'm gonna give it to you for free. Also very sub suspect. And then you have the other realm of that. Come to my studio and pay hundreds of dollars, and then you must stay with me, because the only way you will achieve the results is if you come to my studio three times a week. Ben there done that. And the truth is everybody on the planet can awake and remember that there are certain ways to re to move your body that will help move the negative qi or the negative energy out of your body. So therein lies my dilemma. My dilemma is yes, my time is worth a lot. There's a lot of value in my time, but yet I feel called by God to say, Humanity, there is a simple way to move your body that can help transform your life in profound ways, but I don't want to charge you hundreds of dollars. I want you to learn this if it takes you six weeks to learn the movements, and then you want to take it home and do it every single day and and watch your life transform? Great! But please show it to somebody else. But no, instead, the matrix makes you think that you are special, that you have to be in this certain group, that that only you can do it. And I am asking God to help me bring it to the world, and if I bring value to you, if I've blessed you, then you can bless me back. Or if you don't have money to bless me, then just come and practice with me until you can do it and your life changes, and then you can show somebody else that's how I want to go forward. And so I have this dilemma. I don't want to be in the midst of all the capitalistic marketing, and you have to do it this way, and you have to pay me all this money. No, I want to operate the way Christ did. I want to go out in my community and create connection and show people the ways that have helped me transform my life. Because what does God say to us? And I'm gonna close with some quotes and verses. Mark Twain says, whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it's time to pause and reflect, which of course is Selah, which is my favorite word. Selah, Selah, pause and ponder. What does it say in Exodus 23, too? Do not fall in with many who do evil. And it looks so good, doesn't it? Oh, it just looks so good. I have, where's my phone? Oh, my phone, I'm recording on it. I have this phone, and and I can I can access all this stuff. And yes, many of those are good, and there's so many healers out there, and there's so many authentic, genuine people out there. But the truth is, it's you. You have to do these things. You cannot just expect something on the outside is going to do it for you. 1 John 2.15 says, do not love the world or the things in the world, because if anyone loves the world, the heart of the Father is not in him. Why do people not come to God? Because God wants all of you. He wants you to ask him about everything. And what we want to do is we want to ask Google, oh, guilty, guilty, guilty as charged. I do it all the time. And yet I know that I know that it's God that I need to run to. What else does he say? In James 4 4, he says, Do do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Therefore, whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. Oh, I'm not an enemy of God. I I love God. Okay. But do you love all the products of the world? Do you love everything about the world? Do you do you follow trends? I'm sorry. Trends are not my friend. Therefore, that's why I have podcasted for almost four years now. But I'm trusting that God is going to have me reach the people that I'm supposed to reach. I don't want to push myself out there and market myself and follow the trend because the trend is my friend. Baloney, that's the world. How often, oh, you know, I need an eyebrow pencil because I'm 65 years old and my eyebrows are kind of going away. My eyes look, you know, where are your eyes? They're right here in my beautiful face. That for years I covered up with chemicals. No, that's actually not true. I was never a foundation girl. All I did was use mascara, sometimes eyeshadow. But you see my point. If we spend so much of our time doing the things that the world tells us we're supposed to do, we're in love with the world. Ooh, that's a tough one, isn't it? How many products do we use that are bad for our bodies because the world tells us so? I haven't ever used sunscreen. Well, no, I take that back too. I have used the lowest level on just my nose, but I the sun is our friend, folks. I don't wear sunglasses anymore because we're supposed to have our eyes exposed to the sun. And yet the world tells us no, no, no, no. So, in closing, I just ask that you wake up and look. What does Romans tell us? Chapter 12, verse 2. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed. Are you on a podcast called Free to Just Be because you want to be transformed into being free to be who you are? Then do not conform to the world anymore. And it says, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind that you will test that you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable to Him. You see, we have to pull out of the world. We have to sit quietly and let Him speak to us, and that does not happen overnight. I'm sorry, but you cannot enter the narrow road in thirty seconds of microwave ability. It takes diligence, it takes the desire to be like God, and it takes the bravery and courage to step away over and over and over again from everything that is not like God. And when Jesus walked this planet, there were no microphones, there were no computers, there were no phones, there were feet who brought the good news and were blessed because of it. And so I don't know exactly how God's gonna show me how to do this, but I am literally in the process of genuinely and authentically walking out that verse that Las Two said. Observe. Observing is the very first way that we begin to awaken. And maybe today's episode you will now begin to observe all of the media propaganda and ways that they are trying to duplicate. Okay, Tai Chi is good, but the adulteration is saying that in six weeks' time your life will change. That's a lie. So last two says, observe what the world does. We did that today. I gave you many examples, and maybe now when you open your phone or turn on the television or your laptop, you will observe what the world does, and observe yourself. Well, I do this, I use that product, I believe this person. Observe, observe what the world does, and then what does he say? Do the opposite. So Theresa Marie, Ambassador of Qi, is saying, God, how do I reconnect people with these beautiful moves that help move energy through our body and bring so much transformation without doing what the world does, following the trend, marketing. I do not know the answer to that, but I am going to share it with the world as it unfolds in my life. I love you so much, humanity, and right now I pray for the greatest health and the most vibrant energy to arrive in your world because you have been brave and bold enough and courageous enough to know that the transformation of your body, mind, and soul is up to you. And oh my gosh, I'm gonna say it, your relationship with your creator. You see, the biggest part of the transformation of the world is you and I recognizing that we have to clear that channel back to our creator because that's when we discover the spark of God that we are, and then we can fan that spark back into a holy fire. So if you don't know Jesus Christ yet, might I suggest that you begin a relationship with him and tell him, hey man, I have so much crap in my life, and I need you to forgive me for following the world, for reaching for everything but you, God. And right now I want to reach for you because you see, he already paid the price for us when he died on that cross, and he wants an active, open channel to you, which is the most transformational power that you will ever find, but you have to go inside and develop that relationship with him. And so, in closing, I wish you the peace no, I don't wish. I decl declare and decree the peace that passes all understanding for my brothers and sisters out in Humanityville today. So much love. Have yourself a glorious weekend. Peace.
