Aspiration

To aspirate means to breathe. At one time, that was the most a living being could strive for—to continue to breathe! However, as eons have progressed, it became possible to hope for more.

Breath

This is a great way to open up and allow your aspirations to become consistent and increased. Remember any breathing technique primarily effects the System it is associated with and yet it can ultimately effect any and all other Systems.

Color

Yellow is the color that allows us to express ourselves more easily to others. It invites us to share in group activities in forms of socializing, counseling, and advertising. Yellow balances depression.

Sound

Stillness allowing the presence of supportive factors to take place which harmonize and blend. The elements present, although in repose, form blending patterns which will reincorporate all the energies into their original sequences. A representation of this energy is one complete breath.

Initiation

Because ONA is about you becoming conscious, we feel that no one can initiate you, but you. You do not need our permission to embark on this journey; you only need your own. Because you are making an agreement with your Innermost Self, it is appropriate to stage the agreement in the form of a ritual. (Ritual is a language that communicates more deeply with the Innermost Self, which is why people instinctively use it regarding matters of importance.)

Hands-On

Aspirating to increase aspiration is a fine aspiration in itself! The goal with this hands-on procedure is to allow you to increase the time a breath can be taken and to increase its intensity. Breath is essential to the build up of energy within your systems. This kind of energy increases the bodies ability to oxygenate the cells and the energy of the cells can build and can pass on that build up to all of your and those you work with.

Techniques

You are a many-layered being. Imagine the writer of a movie script, in which one character is an author, in whose book is a character who is also an author, who has written a book in which the main character has entered a bowling tournament. In this scenario, there are four Created Selves—and all are aspects of the same person! Plus, there are more; for the writer of the movie script is, himself, the Created Self of an even deeper-level being.

Questionnaire

Please take a week or so to practice the techniques you learned in this workshop. Each workshop builds on the skills learned in the workshop previous.

Then, take a few minutes to answer the following questions. This is not a test; it is intended to give you a baseline against which to measure your progress. The right answer is the honest one!
