I lost weight from the time I started this book over 1.5 months ago. This book is highly effective as a spiritual healing guide.
As a Course In Miracles Teacher I was fascinated that Marianne Williamson created a version of the teaching for those who struggle with weight, gifting them a spiritual source book that aligns readers with a journey of opening and expanding upon healing and uniting with the authentic self.
In a Course In Weight Loss, Marianne teaches self love and total self acceptance as steps to empowering yourself. She gives letters as examples of self communication techniques to turn a problem into something that you can accept within yourself. She talks about uniting weight problems (She covers weight but I believe the book can work with any addiction or affliction) with that of the assistance of Source. She speaks of God beautifully and freely as the provider of miracle to solve pain, issues, and problems in spiritual support of the reader. She utilizes lessons, gifts examples and takes you on a step by step journey through each lesson with wisdom and prayer, frightfulness and the ACIM understanding of authentic truth in Being. Her book is beautiful, and apparently effective as I without a strong goal, as I was reading this book I played with the idea of letting the book work for me. I lost weight just by reading the book and exploring my self with the exercises Marianne gave to work with.

Im in charge of me, your in charge of you
To postulate each one of us is capable to design our life lessons so that we can learn and grow is to understand our spirit is director.
To see that each spirit is the director of their life experience is to see each other as Source sees them, pure, responsible, capable. When you see this, capability expands and problems could never be larger. Understanding spirit is always master and director is understanding we all come from Source and is a liberating experience to discover.
To see each other in any other way does not serve, help, or support, it invalidates spirit and creates karma. To know that another has spirit, and that their spirit creates their life lessons as valuable treasures from every experience is to understand the jewel within yourself to support your own journey and to stand within the well spring of source.
Each of us has several pathways to choose as conscious choice to learn the lessons that our spirit selects as necessary and can always altar a pathway, make it more graceful, yet still retain the value of the growth. However the growth process is extremely valuable to the incarnate and was carefully selected by ones spirit. Interrupting that process is unnecessary practice and can delay growth.
Sometimes we fear the growth process of others or are not neutral because we do not understand what this being is working on, maybe have a matching picture and do not fully trust our own spirit, capability, and truth of what we have selected for our own individuated growth. Sometimes we judge another s growth and mistakenly interpret it superimposing a limitation that is not another s truth because we have yet to learn how karma is created.
Spiritual surrender, forgiveness, and non judgment assist the release of the pictures, energy charges and responsibility to prove to another the misnomers of right and wrong. It is your ability to resolve and create divine correction to the karma and energetic exchange of interference. Practicing the tools of spirit helps each of us to know we are of Source and truly are in charge, capable, ready, rich in tools and resources.

What is a Spiritual Healer?
A Spiritual Healer is you.
You as spirit have a gift to change, shift, rearrange, altar, evolve, learn, grow, expand, and resolve any and all things given the conscious play space and the permission, the space to experience and utilize your natural God given ability.
A Spiritual healer is someone who is able to heal on a spirit level. We all are spirit first and foremost. Spirits have a body but they are not a body, the body is the temple that can house spirit.
Healer is one of our major natural dynamics. Where we hold belief in limit holds restriction to how much we allow ourselves to experience our healer state. Our healer state goes beyond limit, logic, and can not be fathomed by the analytical mind. Letting go of limit, and logic greatly enhances your spiritual power to own your own natural healer dynamic.
Our world gives us options, it gives us structure and parameters. When our world creates parameters it also creates restriction, it becomes a limit to our natural healer. Learning how to utilize your healer capability in self loving ways and employ your own natural healer to accept the world but know you do not have to become it, is your most valuable postulate to understand the freedom that the creator has granted. Play, be amused but do not loose yourself in limits is the simple act of remembering who you are and the first steps in remembering your healer is truly yours.
Healer is liberated with imagination, creativity and play. How you use it is unique. Techniques that involve play may have created the universe, learn how to liberate your healer, it is a strong part of you. When you embrace your own natural healer then everything in this world begins to reflect this and becomes a healing to you. From the food you eat to the people you meet to the sun smiling down to you, the world becomes your healing temple.
Healer is both yin and yang but predominantly yang. It is the inner masculine that propels, creates motion and supports your creative essence. When your healer acts as a twin flame you feel balanced, supported, whole. Creating space to know your healer is always an act of self love.
One can assist your healing journey but your healer is yours. Another person can not be a greater healer to you than you, gifting power to another invalidates both parties as in spirit we are truly all created equal. What we choose to hold on a body level always becomes the story we write for ourselves and this is where our healer holds value as a story can always be rewritten. Many masters have mentioned change the frame of mind, and you change the story line, this with healer is always so. Your ability to write stories always employs a life lesson you want to learn for yourself, you can choose to look at everything with value as you also take charge of your internal creator. Healer and creator is the director and commander of your experience, choose to bring value to it with self love.
Learn and enjoy your healing dynamic. Use it to support yourself and know that no matter what, you are that capable. Open yourself to the wonder and possibilities and you will be on the road to the knowing of who you truly are.

Passing of Loved Ones, Love and Transition
For those of you who have had loved ones who have passed, this article may bring forth gifts. To understand the transitional journey back to soul is a wonderful undertaking to all parties.
When a spirit leaves a body and lifetime it can go through several processes before it returns to gold, or the light. One can maintain a relationship with the spirit of a loved one and still maintain present time community if they know how too shift awareness to the new state the loved has transitioned to.
In one life time we create a story and persona that is rich in growth, trials, and experiences. When a person has crossed over they either let go completely and blend back into the peace and joy of their master soul, or they have difficulty in detaching from the story they once became in life and still hold onto the lessons and agreements rather than complete the transition.
With those who have lost a loved one, they never really died in the way we perceive, they simply left a body, story, and identity that they created within a moment of their larger souls journey. If you are to remember that we are soul first and this is our eternal self then you can always maintain your love, relation, and connection with this soul as it exists on a higher vibrational plane than the one you are looking at that was the former life. This helps both you and the loved one embrace present time. Saying hello to a loved one as their soul is always a healing for both parties as you validate their ability to liberate themselves from the conditions and struggles into freedom and this is right.
We are not meant to hang on to the strife of a lifetime and sometimes those that transition stay there because they love you and you yourself is stuck in the memory of who you have lost. To understand that you did not loose and you can still gain if you raise your sights to the vibrational plane of where they now stand is to understand the peace, joy, and sanctuary that they have now reached. Quite often I tell my clients who have asked about lost loved ones to send them jokes and see if you get one in return. Raising your vibration in order to have a new level of relationship is the embankment of you gifting yourself the experience to know we are all of God and in that there is only journey….no finite end. To understand the full vibration of what is soul is your gift to yourself and your loved one. There your relationship holds new value and meaning of the blessing and light of what truly is of God.

Where Spiritual Death Comes From
Spiritual death is very different from physical body death. Our physical body form has its time on the planet and a defined time to go, when it is time for a body to go the Soul knows. Spiritual death is something we experience when we grow.
One of the greatest examples of a spiritual death lies in the story of the Phoenix. The Phoenix rises and falls in a continual cycle of death and rebirth fluidly. It is reborn from its ashes in a perpetual cycle of life and death beautifully. The phoenix finds this natural and natural is beautiful.
As spirits having a human experience our death is not always so fluid. This is because we hold on with our lower will, or our ego will, or the mental body itself. We try to control outcomes and get in our own way of being fluid and free. We do not realize that our concepts are pictures and do not make our world truthfully. Spiritual Death is painful when we hold on. When we let go we do not even experience it as much. If we were purely trusting of our spiritual path we do not hold on at all and allow the rebirth to be natural just as the phoenix does.
We are continually being called to let go of concepts we hold, this is called spiritual growth. Allowing the growth of our Soul into our life experience is a fluid act of letting go at each turn as one moves forward, continually being in the present moment there is no holding on to concepts, they are all a byproduct of our past. You allow this as an act of love. Your Soul knows how to do this, this is the higher will in you. Your ego or mind can be trained to be fluid. Remember the Phoenix and the grace its message teaches you. Letting yourself let go of the limits, concepts, beliefs you hold is always a rebirth as a new level of being is waiting to rise out of the ashes as soon as you are.

The Three Levels of Spirit
We are spiritual beings with spiritual anatomy and at the same time human beings with tangible anatomy, a temple of our soul that incarnated lifetime after lifetime in order to learn and grow. One of the myths that our spiritual aspect purchased long ago is that growth needs to be hard, harsh, and horrible in order to evolve. One of the truths available with the new earth shifts and fully allowing your being to step into present time is that the growth of your soul, your journey can be beautiful and gentile, self loving. What it takes to get there is a shift of the programs you are running on an ethereal level to remove the veils of illusion and to restore full consciousness.
When you get to know yourself above and beyond the physical body level you step into empowerment and activate your right to choose the lessons, methods and how they serve you…but you must learn that you have already chosen your path before you incarnated, and the methodology of experiencing in your magnetic. How you shift what you magnetize and how is about awakening and understanding your spirit, gifting it new tools and ascension choices.
There are 3 levels of spirit, within these three levels exists the totality of your reality and the possibility of awakening from all things you thought customary, permanent and non-fluid:
1) The Trickster Level: The trickster level began dominating our growth after the fall of the roman empire. We were convinced with that earth shift that growth is more meaningful, tangible, when it encompasses splitting from the light and using duality to create harsher dichotomies for learning. We partitioned ourselves away from the light to create life lesson plans that were highly third dimensional and of patriarchal rule. The fall of the Roman Empire was the last phase of the fading Atlantian Rule (however Atlantis as vibration began to fall far before Rome…this is another story indeed) and we dropped into density of the third dimension, Heaven could no longer exist on Earth mainstream. The trickster level of our spirit created fundamentals of growth and life lessons including the creation of karma, karmic debt and accountability for actions. It was the beginning of the veil to consciousness and for one spiritually traveling on blind faith physically lead by their own trickster behind the scenes. Games became our developmental cycle. The trickster level in you is responsible for the story and games you play that are absent of the Divine Light.
2) The Lost Level: The lost level is you where you fell into a picture, a story, a lesson and can not see yourself beyond this encounter. It is the area where you have difficulty with the lesson, the way it was set up and feel discord on some level. It is the place where you or another need healing or a hand up to help you remove the veil and step out of the story. The problem here is that the trickster level within you is the one employing the story in the first place and needs to be addressed so that you can awaken from your dream, story, or difficult circumstance that has you split from the light of your own divine nature. It is also in how you receive the hand up, as another healing you does not work- it fosters co-dependency and you do not learn the lesson or gain seniority. This is where most of our internal conflict begins and ends methodically. When one is able to address and be accountable for their trickster level without finding fault then the body, spirit, mind connection can restore light gracefully and the Soul can step in and take over.
3) The Soul Level: This is the level that never left the garden and has been waiting for your return. This is that part of you that always stayed within the light, Divine Light, and remained connected with Divine Mind. This is you as God, you as love, you as miracle. This level was not able to incarnate into the body through the denser times we have experienced upon the earth but now in present time with the new earth shifts is purely permissible, encouraged and almost mandatory. With the new earth shifts the denser dynamics are fading from the earth plane and the body in order to make room for the soul level to step into the temple that we call the physical body
Rainbow Institutes programs teach tools for self awareness of all three levels of spirit so you can cohesively and consciously make a shift in all matters of your life experience by relating to your three levels harmoniously. Where we teach these tools are in our Conscious Living Curriculum, A Course in Miracles, our Spiritual Counseling Sessions and Psychic Readings and basically all of our work as we are dedicated to our alignment with the Karmic Counsel of Elders, The Brotherhood of Light, and the Arch Angels.

You, Your Spirit and the New Paradigm Shift
Making a Paradigm shift? Changing to match the New Earth Vibration?
Changes are on their way and learning how to vibrate and thrive with them is what spiritual growth is all about!
There are alot of old world concepts that structure our reality, or functionality that no longer serve the modern spiritual warrior, visionary and person who wants to take full responsibility for their growth and development!
One of the greatest benchmarks are divine truth to break down limits if you use this information to incorporate a shift. Divine truth or divine light when shed on a situation makes the situation much smaller in retrospect to your capability as a spirit and is always geared to allow you to thrive!
Thriving is your birthright, how ever you may have built up struggle and resistance within you and this you can learn how to melt. Taking charge of your reality is not hard. Owning the concepts you utilize in your day to day and then seeing if they serve you could be a really enlightening experience in the “getting to know you” equation that can make any change in this world meaningful.
Most concepts that say life is a struggle, growth is painful, or work is hard does not equate when you benchmark it to divine light and truth, thus breaking down these concepts do serve you, the all, the everything. Laugh with amusement when you see them pop up and ask yourself what can I do or think here that would create a more meaningful experience for me. Simply replace the old world concept with the new world concept and see how this enhances your reality. Do this enough and I envision you will experience a shift that is more enjoyable and freeing to your spirit!
Many blessings,
Cynthia Warwick

Spiritual Transformation
Spiritual transformation always comes after a realization of three key components have been acknowledged.
We are always growing towards oneness and processing our growth in a triangular format. Our growth it is not always specifically about who you are in this lifetime as much as it about the entire journey of your spirit and the roles you have played out through many incarnations.
When we grow we are looking at achieving insight in regards to subject matter in order to retire it and as spirit we choose many different roles to incarnate through in regards to the subject so that we can realize the full spectrum of its dichotomy. Some of the past incarnations have not completed the lessons and you as spirit opt to work them this lifetime in order to complete an unfinished cycle, we call this karma. However karma does not have to be fully completed in order to transform and achieve growth, in other words you do not have to act out an old role in order to complete a cycle but you do have to acknowledge the three key potentials of the triangle in order to create the transformation and release the cycle.
In the triangular format of completing karma and achieving transformation it always comes back to your viewpoint of self, this is at the top of the triangle. The two lower corners are about how others viewed, reflected upon or treated you in regards to the subject, and how you viewed reflected upon and or treated others in regards to the subject. While this sounds complex it is not, here is an example of a karmic cycle about to complete itself:
Lets pick the subject matter of judgment:
At the top of the triangle is self-judgment, where you have or hold the judgment of self, and self concepts that are judgmental
At the bottom left is how others show you this concept over and over again by judging you
At the bottom right is where you show yourself this concept over and over again by judging others
One will continue traveling through the cycle of the triangle until the three aspects of judgment have been realized so that they can be forgiven and released. Once all three are released you are able to retire the karma and reconvene in the state of oneness as the growth and transformation has been achieved. Why it becomes a lengthy process is sometimes we have a hard time admitting or looking at our own self concepts, however it is the most important realization in the completion of the cycle therefore it has rewards and merits that are insurmountable in your growth as spirit.
If you find a cycle is repeating itself try asking what is the concept that I hold about me here and what is this experience trying to show me. If you are open to it you are also able to complete the karma in a way that is rewards to you, as you are the keystone of your journey, light and life
Namaste,
