The Conscious Daydream

Navigating Light & Dark

The Light and the Dark are necessary in the human experience and the Universe. The contrast is so important for evolving, growing, and transcending. When you plant a seed in the soil, it's submerged in darkness. The darkness is vital to the creation process and to life itself, and so is the Sun. Society tends to avoid pain and discomfort and masks these experiences with drugs and other unhealthy habits. But through the courage of using these experiences to gain wisdom, we can become the highest versions of ourselves, better equipped for life than we were before the challenges arose. 
Whatever you're going through, you're growing through. We are so proud of you for where you currently stand on your path, and we are on this journey with you. If you feel alone now and the mental fog is wearing you down from trying to figure everything out in your head, please feel free to reach out to Andrea and Melody on IG @theconsciousdaydream. We are your family, and we care a great deal about you.
Melody also mentions the astrology influencing our experiences at this time. The end of the Gemini Season has been an overwhelming experience this year. HOLD ON! Cancer season will provide a rest period that we will all be thankful for collectively!
 
 

God's Speed

God's Speed is an interesting topic. One definition is that it's "wishing someone luck on their journey", while another viewpoint is the perspective that "everything happens in God's time". Meaning, in order for your perfect person to show up, that dream job or that beautiful house on the water to come into your external reality, there's a lot of alignment that needs to happen for that experience to be the blissful magic you're hoping for. 
Be open to the "how" and therefore, the "when". Your prayers are heard and everything that is currently on your path is necessary to bring you closer to evolution and the best version of yourself. This new found knowledge that comes with the external reward is the real bliss. It's the internal "stuff" that's the true gold. That's what you take with you and what you leave behind; legacy. 
Enjoy the journey and trust in God's speed.

The Women's Temple

What an incredible Women's Temple Event that Andrea and Melody held on May 31st. An incredible gathering of the Divine Feminine rising. We laughed, cried, ate, danced and meditated together in a cadence that flowed with ease and grace. The women who entered this safe container were not the same women who returned back into the world. Together we evolved into the best version of ourselves and allowed our sisters to witness us where we stood; authentic to our path. 
In this episode we reflect on the activities, modalities, and details of our event and the multiple take aways that moved us. Gratitude overwhelms us as we grow alongside our community of Daydreamers. It is truly a dream to be apart of the magic in your lives and for you to share your hearts with us. We are all here to walk each other home. 

Lonely vs. Alone

Being physically alone and emotionally lonely are different experiences cut from the same cloth. While some may be comfortable being alone, being lonely can be considered a hardship. 
The vibration of lonely can be the internal cry from the inner child looking for validation. But the validation and the acceptance have to come from you; otherwise, the answer you're seeking is superficial and fleeting. Being alone is an opportunity to know yourself and your Creator better, whether God, Jesus, Buddha, Shiva, Allah, Krishna, etc. Listen to your environment, your higher self, the birds, and the experiences happening around you and within you without the stimulation from the bombardment of our modern world. Your thoughts and emotions create your external world, making it critical to making "friends" with the energy within you. 
Facing ourselves can be a loaded task. But it is not anyone else's job to answer the pressing questions that your Soul asks your psyche. 
Our relationships are there to travel beside us, not in front or behind us. Andrea and Melody discuss pouring from a full cup instead of an empty one and expecting others to fill you. If you do not find your happiness, suffering may occur, and loneliness can creep into your external environment, requiring you to dive further inside yourself to find your true North. 

Sensitivity

Growing up, we are told to behave; if not, we might not feel lovable. Therefore, as we age, we might look for this void to be filled in our adult relationships. Our sensitivity is our superpower, and when we feel certain things, it can guide us to what we need and what may no longer serve our highest good. 
Life is a wild ride, and so many things are happening in the mundane and spiritual worlds. Listen to your heart, mind, and body to find where you need to be. Our feelings may not always make logical sense, making it easy to question ourselves or ignore what is intuitively guiding us.  Your emotions are not too much; they are a gift that helps you process what is happening around and within you. 
 
Andrea and Melody discuss their relationship with being sensitive, how it has served them on their journey, and the challenges that arise. Be open to how life speaks to you; although it may feel scary at times, fear is the false evidence that appears real. 
Thank you for existing. 
 
 

The Void

This episode describes the Void as "no longer being who you once were, but also not being who you aim to become." The void can seem hopeless, complex, and challenging and, therefore, can offer moments of depression and temptations from toxic habits that help avoid facing the unknown. However, as we discuss this topic, we also reveal the gifts the void can provide. "You don't know how strong you are until your strength is tested," - Bob Marley. From these problematic terrains of experience, we find our strength, create our hope, and become more apparent in what we can envision and who we identify as moving forward. On the other side, these storms that bring chaos also allow us to help others and rise as leaders for our community in their struggles! 
Wherever you are on your journey, we thank you. Keep going; you are a phoenix rising from the ashes. Because of these uncomfortable and challenging moments, you will have the wisdom to dive into gratitude, drinking in the nectar of life. You now know the importance of what you dreamed of because you worked to get there, have it, and enjoy what you always deserved! We congratulate you for making the climb and taking the long road! Keep dreaming. 

Internal & External Worlds

Reaching within yourself is never an easy task, but an important one nonetheless. Allowing yourself the time and grace to have those intimate moments to reflect and draw from provides a sense of safety and sovereignty. This process requires patience and determination to grow from a place of stillness instead of relying on external validation. The contrast to the internal journey is the external experience of showing up and taking action on the life you wish to live by design. Andrea and Melody attended a silent piano concert on the beach in a community setting during a sunset. It was an external event that was led with an internal intention of listening to live piano music and guided meditation in an environment surrounded by nature with like-minded individuals. The following day, Andrea and Melody attended a 2-hour self-defense class that provided information and practice on physical techniques that would keep someone safe in a dangerous situation if someone were interested in causing harm to your physical body. 
The internal and external worlds that we navigate daily as humans are very different but also complementary. It's easier to become caught up in surface-level drama and, therefore, avoid what's going on regarding emotions and spirituality. This topic of creating balance is essential to mental health and confidence when moving through change, uncertainty and overall life circumstance. 

Manifesting

Manifesting is more than just asking the Universe for what you want. It's holding the vision in your mind's eye and not taking "no" for an answer. When we dare to dream outside of our realm of what we deem realistic, life's circumstances challenge us to raise our frequency through these lessons to attract what we desire. 
"If you can see it in your mind, you can hold it in your hand." - Bob Proctor. 
Feeling the feelings you will have when you receive your wish in this moment instead of waiting to feel a certain way based on outside circumstances. Happiness is here now, not in the future scenario your ego hopes for and tries to control.
Ask. Listen. Let Go. Receive. 

Slow Down

This episode serves as a permission slip to slow down. Society deems our worth based on our external accomplishments and how commercialized our lives appear on social media. However, depression, anxiety, obesity, and relationship issues are constantly on the rise; it is almost as if money isn't the answer for everything, but we treat it as if it's our answer to everything!  External actions are only fulfilling when we become incredibly clear about what we are passionate about and what we feel aligns with our innate talents. 
Don't wait until something externally stops you in your tracks to enjoy the breath that's been gifted to you in this lifetime. That small whisper that's easily ignored and can get drowned out by distractions, is the source of everything you may be searching for. Instead of focussing on external validation from peers and loved ones, be the one who recognizes yourself through the eyes of God and everything you were put on the planet to be and truly hone in on. You are not a human doing but a human being. Western culture hammers social status and economic comforts, but what is the use of being financially stable when you cannot find solitude within your own skin? 
The Conscious Daydream encourages you to dive into your thoughts, dreams, and emotions to become clear on what lights you up and makes life worth living. You are a work of art, and we are so grateful you are here. We love you. You are enough. You are Divine.
Slow down. 

The Mother Wound

The Mother Wound is a popular topic for many conscious people actively seeking to heal their internal worlds. As lightworkers on the planet, many of us grew up as empaths who needed nurturing from our mothers, which may not have been available in the ways we saw as necessary to the relationship we cultivated with life. Andrea and Melody discuss the importance of stepping into that mother role with yourself and becoming the parent that you needed as a child. You cannot always change the people, places, and circumstances outside of you, but you will always have complete control over how you react, respond, grow, and evolve from those experiences. There is no one to blame with this topic of discussion. There are no fingers to point at anyone but you. Your relationship with yourself, God, and your community comes into focus. Embracing and embodying these mother wounds allows you to fully show up for others in ways that others may not be able to show up for themselves. We are all here to walk each other home, and we rise by lifting others. Be a sacred mother to yourself. And dive deeply into gratitude for the life your mother gifted you, regardless of your relationship with her outside of her physical womb.
