Find Your InnerMagic™
Episode from Dance of the Soul Hypnotherapy’s Radio Show (http://

innermagic)
Many people ask me how do I feel alive again, how do I find that sparkle I see
deep in a child’s eyes? What happened to the magic? What is magic? The web-
dictionary has a general definition that seems wholly inadequate. According to them
magic results when a course of events occurs by supernatural or mysterious forces. Is
this really magic? Or is this one aspect of magic? If we look at the essence of what
magic is we can use all our senses to explore what this means to us. As we look up at
the sparkling diamonds in the sky...this is magic. The scent of a rose...is magic. The
melody of a bird.. is magic. Feeling the whisper of the wind... is magic. Magic is
creation. Creation is consciousness fueled by imagination. The origin of imagination,
consciousness and creativity still delude scientific circles. The web of imagination,
consciousness and creativity are intertwined yet illusively so. Within grasp and yet
seemingly like sand falling through our fingers. Like the dark matter of the cosmos it’s
there but you can’t touch it, see it, smell it or hear it.
So where does it come from? I find myself going back to a time when I was in
the redwood forest. These gigantic trees with their buttress roots buried deep within the
earth, while their shoots reached high up into blue infinity. My heart fills with delight at
being surrounded by these majestic pillars of ancient wisdom. The faint babbling of the

stream lulling me into a sense of ease. The cool breeze touching my cheek as the
leaves shimmer, tinkling softly. I watch the golden red leaves as they drift gently and
aimlessly toward the water below. And with silent pause they perch exactly where they
are meant to without force, just being carried along by the whims of the wind. It makes
me wonder why we lose sight of the magic around us. We breath it, smell it, hear it and
feel it. Sometimes tangible and sometimes not. Humans search endlessly for the
happiness anecdote. The elixir of bliss. The more they search the further away it
moves and the more obsessed they are in our search. Unlike the leaf drifting gently to
the ground following the ebbs and flows of the wind, moving this way and that, without
force, without expectation it reaches the spot where it is meant to with elegance and
grace. Therein is magic. In simplicity we find elegance, in elegance we find wonder.
We are all enchanted by fairytales in all their communicated forms. Why is this
so? Is it that our inner child is being nurtured or are we allowing ourselves to tap into
that part of our nature that imagines and creates magic? Perhaps it is the seat of our
consciousness, that part of us that feels a connection with all things. The twinkling of
stars speaks to us in so many ways, the question is why? Is it our connection to all that
is - the collective consciousness or are we romanticizing? Without imagination that
feeds creativity our world would seem bland, empty and linear. For just one day
imagine what it would be like to not listen to music, look at the beauty of nature and hide
yourself in a closed environment, what happens? We become isolated, depressed and
uncomfortable. Science has shown us over and over again how this affects not only
humans but also animals. It demonstrates that isolation is not our natural state and that

of the ecosystem to which we are inextricably intertwined. Inevitably, if we have the
capacity we can escape isolation. Yes, if we close our eyes and go within we are able
to explore the inner dimensions that exist within us that are a part of us but we are so
preoccupied with the “busi-ness” of life we forget about these inner parts of us that are
waiting to be explored. Once we allow ourselves to do so we open the flower moving
from the budding stage to the blooming stage. And once we have accessed this inner
magic, it draws in for more and we are able to explore the inner depths over time with
great ease and with great delight. It’s our stuckness that shelters us from this inner
realm. This stuckness is just the outer shell of the underlying emotion - fear. It is fear
that keeps us from reaching out to ourselves and others. Where there is fear there is
resistance. Where there is resistance the body tenses and we are moving towards who
we think we are. In a relaxed state we move towards who we really are. So we have
seen that with the tools isolation for a brief period of time has it’s place to go within.
What happens when we have an InnerMagical™ experience and acknowledge and
accept the gifts within ourselves we thought we never had? We are refreshed,
refocused and renewed . When we reach out to ourselves, life and others - this is so.
In fact, when our consciousness meets another we are connecting not only on a
physical level but on a subtle level. The subtlety of this fusion is where magic is made.
We have been conditioned to receive and connect with others from a cognitive
perspective. It is here that we expect to find our inner selves and our meaning and
understanding of life. This view is imbalanced. It is our mind-body complex through
which we find meaning in life. When we are disconnected from this part of ourselves we
lose the enchantment of life and our senses show us the mundanity of life. There is an

art to receiving information through this body and the nervous system, that results in
feelings and emotions. These feeling and emotions give us important information but it
is in transcending them that we are able to move to a higher consciousness state and
move towards becoming our greatest potentials. Allowing them to be beacons on this
dimensional plane but move through them, because emotions are not permanent they
are dynamic. As we flow and meander along like the river of life we begin to see the
magic around us, within us and in others because it is us who are dreaming our reality
into existence. It is us who are making it up as we go along. What dream are you
dreaming and when something happens in life, what do you learn?
So next time you find yourself in an isolated state or when something happens
ask yourself the question is it that I am being given a chance to find the gifts within
myself? And if this resonates with you and you need support and assistance turn to
those and the modalities that are there to do so you will find that which guide and allow
you to find your InnerMagic. Because you are dreaming yourself into existence. How
are you going to shape your dream? Own it, it is yours. Take responsibility, for you are
the dream, you are not the victim. Look around and see that it is you that is giving
meaning to all that is around you - what meaning are you going to give? When you
react to something, why is it there? What is there to learn, you constructed it after all,
so there is a purpose? Next time you go outside look around and see what your dream
looks like from the sky to the shopping mall, to your friends and relationships...to
yourself. We all have a different dream, we all create our own reality. Look inside and
know where your dream is being created. Is it in the ego-mind or from the divine-mind.

Ego-mind is not evolved and holds on to fears, while divine-mind is a higher vibration
and brings peace, love and kindness to itself and others. You choose.
I want to remind you that enchantment is a sprinkle of inspiration, delight and a
sense of wonder. So next time you feel the mundanity of life creeping in remember that
magic happens in the space between conscious thoughts and the present moment.
When we find the magic within ourselves we find gratitude for all that is. The state of
gratitude transcends all that is not for our higher good. Seek the magic within you, you
will be surprised at what you find! And by the way you have just experienced
InnerMagic™ through my consciousness, may it wash over you like a gentle wave and
may you come back to this place whenever you need to.
