Welcome to Principle Twelve

Relax and Focus Before we get into anything specific, take a moment for yourSelf. Get comfortable and take a deep breath. Relax your neck and shoulders and—let go. Place your hand on your abdomen and gently bring your breath all the way down. Relax with every out breath. Gently let go, relax and release. This 9-minute audio program will assist you in deepening your breath and heightening your level of consciousness.  Opening Meditation - 9 minutes Not yet a member?

It's all free.  We'd love to have you!         Support a Sustainable World .   Dear Friend, even though we have reached principle 12, our amazing journey of creating a joyful, meaningful and balanced existence continues, and so does Spirits Onymous. I don't know about you, but I am grateful for the many new friends I have made and how my life has changed and deepened.  I am grateful for YOU.   Spirits Onymous is a timeless companion for everyone who wants to see greatness in Self and others. It is the heart of The InnerGuidance Network, which is growing rapidly.   Step 12 focuses on our relationship with the world at large. Since All is Spirit, and everything is a refection of our own consciousness, what is it that the world reflects back to us?   The world we live in is an indication of our own vibrational energy. The world mirrors our internal state of harmony. So, what is it mirroring? What does the world say about humanity? And what does the world say about you?   If it is up to you—-and it is up to you—what would you like to change in the world? ...   Now, apply that wish to your own life and become the change you (wish to) see in the world. Focus on yourself; the world will follow. Lasting change only happens one soul at a time, beginning with you. Studies have been done about the behavior of frogs in stressful environments. First, the researchers dropped frogs in hot water and noticed that they jumped out immediately.  During another test they found something quite different. They put the frogs in cold water and started heating the water slowly. This time, the frogs remained in the water and would have died if the researchers hadn't taken them out. What about your stress level? Are your enduring ever increasing dis-comfort and allowing dis-ease to settle in? Is your environment heating up as well? What about our global environment? You may want to rent the DVD “An Inconvenient Truth.” Concerned? Take a deep breath and curb the tendency to panic or start a war against global warming. Instead, recognize the warning signs, and stay focused on what you want to create: a sustainable world, in which we live in harmony with nature. Now, let the world become an expression of your own internal balance.   What can you do to increase your internal balance and create a more respectful relationship with the world you live in? What can you do today, tomorrow? ____     The Transformation and Vision Sequence         This audio program helps you transform troubling emotions into powerful creative messages to the Universe.

It is a delightful treat that only can be fully appreciated when we live in the now and accept that it is all about the process--not the outcome. We'll never get it done! Hence, we suggest that you continue to integrate the twelve principles into your life. It's an ongoing and deeply satisfying journey.   A collective consciousness is about to break through that will pull humanity into an age of universal spiritual awareness, peace, self-responsibility, love and purpose.   The world is ready, but still needs leaders who lead by example, create mindfully, and touch the lives of people wherever they go. You are invited to fulfill such a role and continue to be an active member of The InnerGuidance Network.  An exciting new session of Spirits Onymous is about to begin!   We will actively support the birth of InnerGuidance Network meetings in your area. Check out our 8-minute video on YouTube: “A Meeting of Spirits."  Click here for information on how to set up a meeting.   Let's continue to raise our vibrational energy and set the tone.
