11 SIGNS THAT YOU ARE EXPERIENCING A SHIFT IN CONSCIOUSNESS

Are you having emotions that make no sense? Do you feel your body reacting to things that you cannot explain? You might just be experiencing a shift in consciousness. This collective movement is happening right now and some people are unaware that things are happening in the metaphysical world.

HERE ARE 11 SIGNS THAT YOU ARE EXPERIENCING A SHIFT IN CONSCIOUSNESS:

1. A STRONG DESIRE TO BE ALONE.

As our bodies enter higher frequencies there is a longing for alone time. We begin to feel overwhelmed by the world’s stimulation. There is little need for television or company. This lasts a little while and it should be honored. You are not falling into a depression. You are shifting to higher elevations of vibration. You do not have to become a hermit. Turn off the phone, shut the computer down, and just allow your body to recharge from the over stimulation.

2. AN URGENCY TO QUIET THE MIND.

You may find yourself craving meditation and prayer time every day. You will feel that during those moments you are connected to a higher purpose. As consciousness shifts and expands the mind will crave quietude. You may also feel intense headaches in the crown area. These are common and heavy conscious breathing helps. Yoga, hiking, or just sitting and detaching from the mind’s chit chat is helpful as well.

3. FEELING OVERLY SENSITIVE AROUND OTHERS.

We are all connected through a web of collective consciousness. As you begin to wake to this awareness, your emotions take a beating. You feel the negativity of others. At times you can sense what they are thinking and feeling without knowing them. This “web” is our connection to Source. Imagine, if you will, the Internet and the endless source of information at our fingertips. This is the same when the mind begins to vibrate at a higher level. You connect to the emotions of others. These are the moments that require grounding, such as going outdoors and feeling the earth under your feet.

4. WANTING TO CHANGE JOBS, HOMES, OR YOUR ENTIRE LIFE.

As we begin to reach a higher level of awareness, there are things that no longer fit in our lives. Our purpose starts to get questioned, “Why am I doing something I don’t enjoy? What am I doing in this place?” That job that you thought you loved and worked so hard to attain may no longer feel fulfilling. That house that you once wanted so desperately because it was going to make your dreams come true, also doesn’t fulfill you.

These changes seem to come in waves. Before making a rash decision, take accounting of what truly makes you happy. Find your authentic truth. Perhaps it’s time to push the reset button and begin doing something that makes you smile when you get up in the morning. This awakening of soul also pushes us to want to help others. We are no longer driven by materialism.

5. REMOVING TOXIC PEOPLE FROM YOUR LIFE.

During this massive shift you start to become physically, emotionally and spiritually stronger. Impatience and intolerance start to appear when you are around people in your life. You will no longer tolerate the drama around you. You start to take into account your relationships and those folks who bring you down. It’s not an easy decision to make but you will find yourself ending friendships, setting boundaries, and removing all those who do not have your best intentions at heart. Once this happens things begin to clear in your life. Toxic energy is a lower form of vibration. In order to continue moving through the shift you must get rid of the “dis-ease” in your life.

6. FOLLOWING YOUR INNER GUIDANCE.

Have you woken up from a dream and felt as if you had been traveling? It didn’t seem like a dream at all. It probably wasn’t. Your inner guidance (or higher self) is communicating with you. There is a massive sense of bliss and joy that enters when you know what you know. This feeling of elation is that inner voice that comes from your soul. Follow that. Follow what makes you happy and it will strengthen your authentic purpose in this world.

7. CHANGES IN SLEEP PATTERNS.

Studies have shown that we are not meant to sleep eight consecutive hours. During times of conscious shifting you will find that there are interruptions in sleep patterns. You may have a first and second sleep: Three or four hours when you initially fall asleep, and then a break. The second sleep happens after being awake for an hour or two. It is during the waking moments that the mind begins to feel as if it’s receiving information from something deeper. The ego is not present. This is a great time for creating, meditating or writing.

“For most of evolution we slept a certain way. Waking up during the night is part of normal human physiology. The idea that we must sleep in a consolidated block could be damaging, he says, if it makes people who wake up at night anxious, as this anxiety can itself prohibit sleep and is likely to seep into waking life too.” ~ Psychologist Greg Jacobs

8. SIGNS AND SYNCHRONICITY APPEAR OFTEN.

Have you been seeing 11:11 or 333 everywhere? Do you keep seeing a certain animal everywhere as well? These signs and synchronicity are forms of guidance to stop and pay attention. The ego will do anything it can to keep you busy. If you stop for a few moments to acknowledge these small signs, there might just be a message from your higher self. Pay attention. Whenever you ask for guidance allow the higher vibrations to show you the way through small occurrences.

9. OLD ISSUES AND MEMORIES KEEP COMING UP.

As you continue shifting and expanding to higher frequencies, old stuff from the past will come up. Perhaps you need to work on self-esteem and self-worth issues related to family or relationships. These issues will play out with new people or in dreams. You cannot return to the past, but you can release old patterns and behaviors. Make peace with decisions. Regrets are toxic. Learn from all those experiences that have brought you to this moment. You get to create and decide what happens today and tomorrow. Part of the spiritual shift is allowing for things to come through and releasing them once and for all.

10. CHANGES IN EATING HABITS.

You may find that you gain weight during this expansion process. Food allergies might also appear with foods that you have eaten all of your life. Let them go. Your body is adjusting to its new vibration. Find moderation in food consumption. Anger, fear, resentments gather up in our bodies forcing us to “hold on to” weight. That last thing you need to do is freak out about this gain weight but become aware that it is a reminder of letting go of all control. Eventually with self-care and awareness your weight will come off.

11. PHYSICAL MANIFESTATIONS.

One of the most powerful signs of shifting consciousness is the complete awareness that you are the creator of your life. You begin to de-clutter the old parts of you and start to manifest the things you want. You will begin to see that whatever you put out into the world becomes a part of your reality. With that said, be careful to stay positive with your thoughts because negative energy is a lower form of vibration and it creates quicker than higher vibrations.

Your experiences are natural. Humanity is shifting and healing. Give yourself permission to move through the ego-based mentality into a higher form of love and understanding.

Things I Wish Everyone Knew About Anxiety and Panic Attacks

It’s normal to feel anxious every now and then. But anxiety disorders are different. They can cause interference with your ability to lead a normal life. For some people, worry and fear are constant and overwhelming, and can be disabling.

General symptoms of anxiety disorders include:

Feelings of panic, fear, and uneasiness
Problems sleeping
Cold or sweaty hands or feet
Shortness of breath
Heart palpitations
Not being able to be still and calm
Dry mouth
Numbness or tingling in the hands or feet
Nausea
Muscle tension
Dizziness

6 Things I Wish Everyone Knew About Anxiety and Panic Attacks

1. Inadequate levels of the B vitamins, especially B12, B6 and folate, may play a role in mental disorders. Vitamin B6 helps produce neurotransmitters and serotonin and norepinephrine (the mood-regulating hormones). Folate with B6 and B12 create the pleasure hormone, dopamine. You must consistently eat folate-rich foods or take a supplement because our bodies do not store folate. Vitamin B deficiency can make you more vulnerable to anxiety and panic disorders because it causes symptoms from irritability to paranoia.

2. Researchers now believe that panic and anxiety disorders may be caused from insufficient or poor-quality sleep. The National Sleep Foundation reports that “those with persistent insomnia have a significantly increased risk of psychiatric disorders like anxiety”. During a sleep study conducted by Harvard Medical School’s Division of Sleep Medicine, they found symptoms of anger, reduced optimism, sadness and stress in those who slept only four hours a night.

3. Calcium supports the health of the brain and central nervous system. A calcium deficiency may cause symptoms of an anxiety or panic disorder. Make sure you support your parathyroid gland by making sure you have adequate dietary or supplementary calcium so that it can continue to regulate and function properly.

4. Magnesium deficiency can also contribute to feelings of irritability, anxiety and depression. A 2006 study showed that magnesium supplementation improved neurological dysfunction, such as depression, in magnesium-deficient individuals.

5. Researchers have found the balance of bacteria in your gut may have a correlation to your mood.

“To confirm that bacteria can influence behaviour, the researchers colonized germ-free mice with bacteria taken from mice with a different behavioural pattern. They found that when germ-free mice with a genetic background associated with passive behaviour were colonized with bacteria from mice with higher exploratory behaviour, they became more active and daring. Similarly, normally active mice became more passive after receiving bacteria from mice whose genetic background is associated with passive behavior.” -Collins

6. According to the latest medical research, 95% of the mood-controlling hormone serotonin resides in your gut. The gut communicates to the brain through the vagus nerve (fibers that connect your brain down through the neck and chest then into your belly).

When we think about something that makes us nervous, we often have a physical reaction in our stomach, usually referred to as getting “butterflies in your stomach” but science suggests it also works the other way around. If your gut isn’t happy, your mood won’t be either.
Patients who suffer from IBS (unexplained GI discomforts) are far more likely to suffer from mood-related disorders. In a recent study of generalized anxiety disorder among IBS patients, were found to be 5 times as high as the rate in the general population. And IBS was 5 times more common in anxiety patients than mentally healthy people. Unfortunately, this can be, in of itself, a self-perpetuating cycle. Anxiety and stress can set off IBS symptoms which usually increases the stress level in return.
Dangers of modern day anxiety medications
According to research published in the April 2011 edition of the Journal of Clinical Psychology, in many cases, these drugs are given as a way to suppress general mood issues or sedate people with insomnia. About 25% of people who are given these dangerous medications do not have a proper diagnosis.

Anti-anxiety medications are among the most prescribed in the United States According to a report in the 2010 Canadian Journal of Psychiatry, “people who use anti-anxiety medication have a 36% increased mortality risk” (risk of death) than people not using these medications.

The most common side effects of anxiety medications:Hypotension (low blood pressure)Decreased sex drive/libidoNauseaLack of coordinationDisinhibitionDepressionAggresion and violenceMemory lossDifficulty thinkingDecreased IQHeart problemsPersistent pulmonary hypertension (possibly fatal lung disease)Increased bleeding riskInteractions with other medications

Incorporating these items into your diet may help reduce the symptoms of anxiety:
•Calcium rich foods: such as dairy products, kale, spinach, broccoli, sesame seeds and kelp will help your body maintain a regular heart rate during panic attacks.

•Vitamin B6: Avocados, walnuts, brown rice, sunflower seeds, eggs, poultry, potatoes and broccoli are rich sources of vitamin B6. Whole-grain products are also rich sources of B vitamins. All of the B vitamins help regulate the function of the central nervous system, which is essential for the management of anxiety and stress. It also helps your body absorb and use protein and fats for nervous system and brain cell repair.

•Zinc: consuming foods such as black beans, fish, lentils, mushrooms, pumpkin seeds and alfalfa will increase your zinc intake. This mineral may help calm your central nervous system.

•Whole Grains: whole-grain pastas, breads, bagels, tortillas and muffins contain carbohydrates which are thought to increase the amount of serotonin in your brain. This has a calming effect on the brain and body.

•Omega-3 fatty acids: lower anxiety levels. Nutritionists recommend including wild caught salmon and other fish high in Omega-3s to your diet several times a week.

•Tryptophan can be found in a variety of foods: turkey, chicken, bananas, milk, oats, cheese, nuts, peanut butter, and sesame seeds. Researchers believe that tryptophan, an amino acid, helps your brain produce feel-good chemicals that can have a positive effect on stress. “Tryptophan is a precursor to serotonin, and serotonin, a neurotransmitter, helps you feel calm,” said San Francisco nutritionist Manuel Villacorta, MS, RD, a spokesman for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.

Additional food to eat to reduce anxiety and maintain calm state:
Wholegrain cereals
Asparagus
Garlic
Molasses
Wheat germ
Brewers yeast
Carrots
Onions
Beetroot
Paw paw
Celery
Stone fruit
IMPORTANT!
Stop or reduce consumption of products that contain caffeine, such as coffee, tea, cola, energy drinks, and chocolate.

महादेव से हुई संसार की उत्पत्ति, अमेरिकन वैज्ञानिक ने जारी किया ब्रह्मांण के निर्माण का वीडियो

नीचे दी गई वीडियो मे इस बात का उल्लेख किया गया है कि कैसे भगवान शिव ने इस ब्रह्मांड को जन्मा। यह वीडियो एक अमेरिकन वैज्ञानिक का वीडियो है, इसलिए यह वीडियो अंग्रेजी भाषा में है। वैज्ञानिक कार्ल सेगन ने पूरी वीडियो में वैदिक रुप से ही सृष्टि के निर्माण की बात की है, और उन्होंने इस बात को स्पष्ट रुप में सामने लाने का सफल प्रयास किया है। 
इस वीडियो में, विश्व प्रसिद्ध अमेरिकन खगोल शास्त्री और भौतिक वैज्ञानिक कार्ल सेगन बहुत ही अच्छे ढंग से हिंदू सिद्धांतो की व्याख्या करते हैं और हिंदू भगवान जैसे भगवान शिव, भगवान ब्रह्मा और भगवान विष्णु के समय चक्र के आधार पर ब्रम्हांड की रचना की बात को सिद्ध करते हैं।
कौन है कार्ल सेगन?   कार्ल सेगन एक खगोल शास्त्री, खगोल भोतिकीविद, ब्रमांड वैज्ञानिक और एक लेखक थे, जो 1980 में बहुत प्रसिद्ध हुए। उनका एक टेलीविजन सीरियल कॉसमॉस: ए पर्सनल जर्नी यूएसए में सबसे अधिक देखे जाने वाला उस समय का टीवी प्रोग्राम था। जब 1996 में उनकी अचानक से मृत्यु हुई, उस समय कार्ल सेगन अमेरिका के मुख्य विज्ञान संचारक थे। वह नियमित मेहमान भी थे दोनों नाइटली न्यूज़ और “दी टू नाइट शो स्टारिंग: जॉनी कार्सन” के। 

जब कार्ल सेगन को यह पूछा गया की ब्रम्हांड की रचना कैसे हुई? तो उन्होंने कहा कि इस बात का जवाब तो निश्चित तौर पर कोई भी नहीं दे सकता। कौन इस बात की घोषणा कर सकता है कि ब्रम्हांड उस वक्त और ऐसे बना? कब इसकी रचना हुई? हमारे लिए भगवान भी इस दुनिया की रचना के बाद ही आए हैं तो फिर कोई और कैसे जान सकता है की इस दुनियां की रचना कब हुई? कोई भी नहीं जानता की कब ब्रहमांड जन्मा, इंसान केवल सर्वेक्षण ही कर सकता है। हो सकता है उसने जान लिया हो, और यह भी हो सकता है कि नहीं, कुछ भी नहीं जाना। किसने जाना और किसने नहीं जाना, यह किसने जाना। यह कथन हजारों वर्ष पुराने हैं, जो रिग वेद से लिए गए हैं। 

उन्होंने यह भी कहा कि सबसे अधिक परिष्कृत और प्राचीन ब्रह्माण संबंधी विचार एशिया से ही आए हैं और खास तौर पर भारत से। वहां का विज्ञान बहुत ही उचित तर्क का रहा है और उस पर ओर शोध करने की आवश्यकता है। 

वीडियो के प्रारंभ में आप देखेंगे केवल एक शुद्ध ज्योति रूपी चेतना है, और इस ज्योति रूपी चेतना को ही शिव कहा जाता है। इसी चैतन्य शक्ति से ऊर्जा की उत्पत्ति हुई और उसी ऊर्जा से इलेक्ट्रॉन, प्रोटॉन एवं न्यूट्रॉन की उत्पत्ति हुई। इन्ही से अनु बने और फिर मॉलिक्यूल। इनके असंख्य गुनाह हो जाने के कारण ही ब्रम्हांड की रचना हुई, और यह ब्रम्हांड आज भी बढ़ता ही जा रहा है और अंत में यह ब्रम्हांड शिव की चैतन्य शक्ति में ही विलीन हो जाएगा। - See more at: http://liveindiahindi.com/america-say-about-mahadev#sthash.LVj5w9P9.dpuf
