(Barbara H Whitfield RT) All through Trump’s 4 years as our president, we have been confronted with the extreme Leftest contortions of reality. Lies or just their beliefs? It has become obvious that the Lefts lack a moral compass. The Left controls in shrewd ways to repeatedly distract us and even worse, gaslighting us while telling us how to live by their standards and wishes.

by Barbara H Whitfield RT, February 2nd, 2021
Their collective reality is forcing us to wake up. What do we mean by “wake up?” It is making us aware of our “Inner life” which many of us have been unaware of. We have been living on default. Just like computers algorithms, we let others make the decision instead of realizing we have choices. Let’s look at our own life to decide if we are awake or need to wake up so we are not living in default and living with choices.
The Default Spiral—or Life’s Ups and Downs

Between my husband and myself we have 80 years of leading and co-leading psychotherapy groups for adults struggling with addictions and/or problems with living. Many of our group members have stayed in our groups for over 10 years. They have mainly healed their trauma wounds but find that they want to continue learning about staying awake (Inner life IQ) so that they don’t “default” on their experiences. They have taken control. When referring to “Inner Life IQ” here, we suggest that besides measuring intelligence, we can measure how awake or aware of our inner life we are so that we don’t fall back into default.
During my Near Death Experience I (BW) experienced a Life Review, I became aware that each experience I live through has a lesson in it. The incredible Energy holding me in my Life Review showed me each lesson or meaning. Life not only becomes easier for me as I explore and find the nugget of gold in each experience, I also find that God moves in to our hearts if we are open to learn. God is no longer an outside enigma – but an actual feeling of Love and Inner Life IQ that expands my own soul.
At this point in our evolutionary path, for many of us, synchronicities become a guiding Light that happens more often than the science of ratios would have us believe. The more we recognize the synchronicities in our life – the more our Inner Life IQ grows. (People who are still asleep can’t see the synchronicities. People who are exercising their Inner Life IQ can see the guidance they are being given by these meaningful coincidences. See below.)
The way out is in!

5D
All life experiences either painful, neutral or happy – have lessons. For those of us who go from one experience to the next in a default mindset, learn nothing. Our spiral is out of our control and we are not using our Inner Life at it’s fullness.
Reflection, using our inner life to examine and find the nugget of gold (also known as “real alchemy” transforming our inner life or taking the red pill). This eventually takes our conscious awareness from 3D into 4D, the portal to 5D. This gives us many glimpses into 5D or heaven on earth. Personally, we experience 4D when we are full of gratitude. And when the gratitude spills over into 5D – joy fills the 5D space we occupy ”
On this drawing below, 0D is before we are born – eternity. God’s light is all. 3D is where we are now. 4D happens as we wake up now called “The Great Awakening.” It is the portal to 5D where God’s light is with us and merges with us through Grace. It appears to us when we do the work of learning from our experiences – over time. Others recognize it as wisdom. We feel it as peace and Love.
5D is multi-dimensional living and thriving. Love is no longer what we do. It is who we are. Love is the verb—the action of God. So in the deepest core of our inner life we are joyful and experience Unconditional Love – which again is God and the creative Energy of the Universe.

This final transformation comes with the Grace of God. We invite the grace in by letting go into Gratitude. God’s Grace carries us into 5D. When we say “final” that means where we are and have experienced consciousness so far – but evolution doesn’t stop here. By it’s very definition there is more to come, we just can’t see it yet.
There is no end, no stopping to the increase of Inner Life I.Q. – it is Spiritual Evolution – consciousness expansion and eventually, or at this very moment – our union with our God Source. For those of us who have experienced this, we talk about the synchronicities that are happening in our lives.
Synchronicities, Coincidences and Prayer
Are you having several coincidences appearing lately that are beyond what is “normal.”
If we talk to God in prayer, can we hear God in meditation? Or is God guiding us with synchronicities?
Is God talking to us and we aren’t listening because we don’t know how? The more we develop our Inner Life IQ, the louder God’s will – will be recognized.
(See our article on Synchronicities and Prayer on Stillness in the Storm.)
Are these synchronicities beginning to open your mind to the possibility – even the likelihood – that God or the Universe may have been trying to communicate with each of us all along. Perhaps you just haven’t been paying attention! That was certainly my experience as I opened after my near-death experience to a larger understanding of the possibilities that are trying to get our attention. In my experience and my research, I came in contact with several kinds of Energy that the yin/yang symbol demonstrates. Everything completes everything else. When we are able to realize this – our Inner Life IQ is increasing.
The more we have investigated Energy the more we realize that many synchronicities are driven by the experiencer’s needs. If courage is needed to face the real truth as it is being shown to us – then coincidences are there. On the other hand, whenever we are in conflict or difficult decisions, we need to open ourselves in meditation, prayer, and contemplation so we have help. Then suddenly we have choices.
Prayer
While in deep meditation just the other day, I (Barbara) realized on a deeper level how much trouble our humanity is in. I heard my pleading voice say to God:
Dear God,
Please God,
May Goodness and Love prevail.
(And in the deepest core of my inner life, I believe that as crazy as our outer reality is right now –we are headed in the right direction.)

Stillness in the Storm Editor: Why did we post this?
Psychology is the study of the nature of mind. Philosophy is the use of that mind in life. Both are critically important to gain an understanding of as they are aspects of the self. All you do and experience will pass through these gateways of being. The preceding information provides an overview of this self-knowledge, offering points to consider that people often don’t take the time to contemplate. With the choice to gain self-awareness, one can begin to see how their being works. With the wisdom of self-awareness, one has the tools to master their being and life in general, bringing order to chaos through navigating the challenges with the capacity for right action.
