Appreciating Esoteric Practitioners – I move with ME!

I have been a Student of Universal Medicine for nearly ten years and with the support of the presentations of Serge Benhayon, The Ageless Wisdom and the whole student body, I have discarded many of the ideals and beliefs that had me living a lie that kept me from who I truly am, and in-truth where I am truly from.

Today, in my body, I live something that I could not have imagined ten years ago – as it was nowhere within my then conscious awareness. So how does someone who did not have this understanding, this potential in her conscious awareness become to not only have it in her awareness but to become someone who lives it with an authority? …My only answer is Reflection – reflection of movement.

By reflection I mean what I tangibly saw and felt from others ­– in the way they moved, how they walked, in the way they spoke, in the quality they held their body in, the way their clothes were assembled with care on their body, how tender their touch was, how engaging their eyes were, how light they seemed to be in their discussions, how much care they took with themselves and with others, in the way they related to others and with me – was something that felt a very true way of being, yet something I had not witnessed in my life before attending my first Universal Medicine presentation by Serge Benhayon. I was able to feel the holding power of this reflection that I was witnessing. I felt it from them and I actually felt different within my body when I was around these true reflections. Reflection was the only thing that started to break down the consciousness that I was holding and supported me to see/feel the hardness I was carrying.

Initially, witnessing the many reflections from Serge Benhayon, the whole Benhayon family, Esoteric Practitioners and the Universal Medicine student body, allowed me to feel that there was more, and that what I was living in my body at that time was not the truth of who I was and am. Over the years these reflections have continued to inspire me and also expose little pockets that do not belong with the grandness of who I am. The power of reflection is that it is a tangible living proof, which for me spoke to every particle in my body saying – this is also who you truly are.

Today I now live this reflection – I live me. And I know that through the way I am with the quality of my movements, that I too provide and inspire others to remember the light they are from, just as I was once inspired. Through others I got to see there was something deeper, precious and beholding which was very natural that I was not living and connecting to. The reflections I received from Serge reminded me of this and started me on my journey to reconnect to the grandness within. This journey has been amazing – not always smelling of roses and at times it was very uncomfortable to feel what I had been choosing for myself, but a journey I would not trade for anything. The rejoining to the love of my Soul is my sole purpose in this life – in truth the purpose of every incarnation, and nothing feels as joy-full.

I fully appreciate the reflection of all the movements that Serge Benhayon, the Esoteric Practitioners and the whole student body offer. Over the years, in reclaiming myself as a walking living Son of God, rebuilding my body to be one that my Soul can have full access to express the love and truth of who we truly are, I have come to have a strong understanding of how important our movements are and just what it is they are reflecting.

Our movements have the power to reflect our multidimensionality and the grand intelligence we are all from.

I have supported myself to feel my body more deeply, deepen the presence in my movements, know the delicateness and tenderness of me and appreciate the amazing qualities I bring to life. Through the modalities offered by other students of Universal Medicine I have been able to deepen my connection to myself and my movements. No matter if I participated in a sequence of sessions or just a one-off here or there, every session offered me another key, a learning, a new marker that only that practitioner was able to provide at that point in time. This is why I am forever humbled and grateful for the unique ‘qualities’ that every human being is designed to bring in life, including the following practitioners:

  • With Victoria Warburton, Marcia Owen and Vicky Geary in Esoteric Yoga sessions, I learnt to move with presence in my body, to trust myself and know the power I bring through the surrender of my movements.
  • With Danielle Pirera in Harmony in Movement, I learnt to focus on particular areas of my body during a movement, letting myself feel all that was there and what was happening as I slowed each movement down.
  • With Karin Becker in Sacred Movement, I have learnt to feel my connection to my body and my sacredness and moving with this connection during the healing movements.

The reflections of each practitioner and my participation in their programs have supported me in unfolding, surrendering, letting go of entrenched patterns, rebuilding, re-imprinting and deeper connection with all sorts of ‘true’ movements, I now bring a truer way of being to my everyday life – in the way I walk, do chores, the way I exercise, the way I prepare things, the way I clean, the way I drive – every facet of my day. And this all supports my body, which then supports the way I am with all those I relate to and everything I do in this world to also hold the same amazing quality. And so the ripple of Reflection continues…

  1. Without true reflections, it is impossible to know where we are stuck and dis-connected from in ourselves, or make true and lasting changes in our everyday life without punishing with rigid disciple, or giving ourselves a hard time for failing miserably to maintain the changes. Serge Benhayon and the practitioners named in this blog have all been instrumental in supporting my new choices and footsteps in returning back to who I am /we are.
    “The power of reflection is that it is a tangible living proof, which for me spoke to every particle in my body saying – this is also who you truly are”.

  2. I learn so much more from what people do and how they move than the things people say. For example when I see a woman moving so exquisitely delicately I’m inspired to try moving my body in that way, or if I see someone go out of their way to help someone I’m like – yeh I want that kind of integrity. We should never under estimate the power of our reflection.

  3. Johanna, I love how you bring the power of reflection and the key to connection with our soul down to the simplest of bodily movements like driving, getting dressed, speaking with a friend, etc. I feel like I have resisted this in the past and am just now really beginning to feel how, when I am present with my body it connects me with the source of its essence, which is in fact the particles that make it up and belong to the whole Universe, not just me.

  4. In the darkness of the night sky, it is the twinkle of the stars that remind us who we are and where we come from. Reflection is everything. It guides us back to our true and godly self.

  5. Knowing everything is energy isn’t just a nice fact to look at in a science test – it’s embracing the reality that everything in this world moves and does so by a quality – and we have the choice to make our moves in tune with God or against. The results are huge!

  6. We have a choice of course to accept or deny the reflection of love, truth, harmony, joy and stillness from another, but if we do accept it, we start to live this reflection in our own movements and become a reflection for others.

  7. Just as we receive reflections from others, so too do we emanate a quality that others receive. The more we appreciate and value ourselves, the deeper the quality of this reflection- and its potential to inspire.

  8. Just by being who we are, connecting to our true nature, and letting the light and the love that we are shine out our eyes, we can all be reflections of the world to see the possibility that there is so much more in this life then meets the eye.

  9. Thank you Johanna, there is a large network of people now living the esoteric way that can provide support in the various aspects of life, however it’s the way they live and their reflection that can inspire so much change within ourselves.

  10. We are really blessed to know so many people have found a way to live that is so gorgeous and contagious, it can’t help but inspire all those around them.

  11. Reflections are profound – whether we choose to see them or ignore them we cannot deny something is knowing of them. Being someone who wanted to ‘fix’ the world rather than take responsibility for myself I didn’t put much acknowledgement on the reflections I saw – those that were reflecting my ill choices back to me and those that could have inspired me – I just wanted to ignore. Now I know how healing they are when I appreciate what’s being communicated and what’s being called for in how I move in life.

  12. We are able to be inspired by others purely by watching them move, it is normally with a grace and a flow, it has no rush, it is consistent and is always honouring of the body, a great reflection for us all.

  13. Without reflection I know I would not have become aware of how hard I was being with my body, and even while I may have been aware of it I would not have known there was another way. This is how we are inspired and inspire each other, just by how we are and how we move.

  14. ‘Our movements have the power to reflect our multidimensionality and the grand intelligence we are all from.’ It is literally all about movements, the power and the consequences of our movements is something that could be investigated much closer. They make way for more love for new opportunities or for staying stuck in the same (often loveless behaviors and thoughts).

  15. I love your observation about others: ‘how light they seemed to be in their discussions’. When things aren’t so focussed anymore on being right and more on working together this brings a completely different quality to a group.

  16. The reflection of others is the start of change if someone chooses so. Even if someone doesn’t change his life at that moment the option is planted and you never know what and when the follow-up will come.

  17. Beautiful piece of appreciation Johanna. We are offered incredible reflections so show us that we are also great reflections to many.

  18. A great reminder to appreciate the enormous amount of true support, lived expertise and beautiful reflection that surrounds us, all from people have chosen for themselves to do the work and return to a loving and responsible way of life.

  19. What your blog shows Johanna is that the way back to ourselves is through our body. There is much to be learned trough Universal Medicine but the true change comes from living it from our bodies.

  20. “The power of reflection is that it is a tangible living proof, which for me spoke to every particle in my body saying – this is also who you truly are.” A beautiful post Johanna. I too have and am changing as I receive beautiful reflections from some amazing esoteric healing practitioners as they move and go about their day. And we too are reflections for everyone we meet. The question is do we choose that to be healing or harming? It is our everyday livingness that supports either choice.

  21. We can’t escape reflections. They are happening every minute of the day. But we can ignore them if we want, or we can see them for all they are offering and learn and be inspired by them. They are what I feel to be far more educational than anything we learn in our current schooling system. They teach us about who we are and how we are with ourselves.

  22. When I am being presented with a reflection that is of a greater connection to God than I then I have two options with which I can respond. The first option is that I can choose to be in awe and inspired by the other person or the other option is that I can choose resistance and feel very uncomfortable. Surrendering and being inspired allows for evolution; resisting holds me back from seeing and feeling what it is that I am to see and feel in that moment and therefore keeps me in the comfort of staying where I am on the path of my unfolding.

  23. It is a beautiful thing to appreciate the inspirational movements of another person, because this opens up the door to the possibilities of what you may bring as an inspiration to us all.

  24. Observing others in the love and quality of their movements would serve us all to take notice of and then apply to our own lives. When we understand how important our movement is to the quality of energy we put out, we get to feel how restricted we have been living within our bodies and then imposing that onto others by way of a reflection.

  25. We can all feel there is something about those who are in their body, there is something that communicates their ease, their surrender, their confidence, their steadiness in their movement. They reflect and remind me the simple way back to connection.

  26. It’s amazing how much we pick up from just seeing and observing other people – the way we move, the way we feel, the light in our eyes; we are all role models for each other…

  27. The power of reflection is huge because we can see in others what we know is true within us. This is a living confirmation and an invitation to always be who we are, supported by the fact that it is not only possible, but a blessing for all to fully be ourselves.

  28. ‘ The power of reflection is that it is a tangible living proof, which for me spoke to every particle in my body saying – this is also who you truly are.’ This is so true and I love this article for reminding me of what I behold when I see those who express divinity in their every move.

  29. It is beautiful Johanna to read of your deep appreciation for the many practitioners that have inspired you along the way. To live and express in the world without holding back offers others a powerful reflection that inspires and ignites another to feel they are equally this too.

  30. When people live the love they are, we notice it, you can’t miss it. It certainly not in what they do, but its in every movement. There is care, consideration, respect and enjoyment in every tiny detail, If we are open to this the reflection is one that inspires if not we can react as we realise (consciously or not) that we are not making similar choices in our own life.

  31. Seeing the way another or others live can be deeply and truly inspiring as you share here – it’s amazing how much we clock each others movements and energy without even being consciously aware of it at times I think.

  32. The reflections offered by Serge Benhayon and the whole Benhayon family are very powerful indeed, this greatly inspired me to also make true changes in my own life because of this.

  33. The amount of support we have with Serge, the Practitioners and the student body as a whole is truly amazing, the reflection of true love and care is affirming and very profound in its effect on our lives.

  34. A truly honest and inspirational blog Johanna. I agree that the wonderful influence that the Practitioners of Universal Medicine offer us is nothing short of amazing and done with such love, a true example of being in the Livingness.

  35. This is a great blog to demonstrate the power of our movements and the reflection they offer. We see another move in truth and know that we too are a part of it and from there we can chose to move with this truth.

  36. I am sure having a body that is supple and free really supports you when you are working with children( I noticed your qualifications at the sign off of this blog). I have 5 kids and when my body is being supported by having a session with some of the practitioners you mention above, my whole life just flows and when I don’t, things can get quite stranded.

  37. Learning the significance of movement in bringing connection to and expression of one’s Soul is the most profound lesson learnt.

  38. The reflection of Serge Benhayon of how to live is as consistent as the rising of the sun each day.

  39. The power of reflection is huge, when we meet someone who is living that level of love it is impossible not to feel the pull to be greater.

  40. Connecting to my own body, and moving in a way that honours me and others equally offers a shift in consciousness that supports an incredible depth of understanding and a choosing of well-being. I agree my life has totally change through amazing presentations and workshops and this is reflected in my commitment to living with vitality and bringing in joy, it is like a coming out of myself and allowing humanity in.

  41. It is something very great that is being presented in this writing. The science of reflection is a huge art form that lives within us all.

  42. The power of movement and it’s reflection is huge. Recently I was at a concert where Natalie Benhayon and Kelly Benhayon danced on stage. It was the most beautiful thing to watch. Their bodies communicated so much and exposed a lot for me in the way I move and live. Their grace and delicateness was such power and all of this took place in just a few moments.

  43. Reading how you are rebuilding your body so your Soul can have access to you and expressing who we truly are is so inspiring. I’m seeing how becoming aware of all those pockets that are not love may not be pleasant to acknowledge but is an important part of letting them go. Rather than hiding from this awareness it’s great to feel how yucky that stuff is within my body – great way of deterring me from choosing it again and addressing what’s behind taking on this yucky energy.

  44. I have been inspired by so many Esoteric Practitioners. Their commitment to living their truth and the way that they choose to move is tangible. Feeling this when I am around them is enough to pull me to want to do the same. It is so much more powerful than words alone.

    1. Yes, whenever I am in doubt of something I remember one of the practitioners – a graceful lady full of light and smiles – she’s such an inspiration.

      1. These little moments stay with us and plant seeds of truth for us to be inspired and reminded.

  45. “The power of reflection is that it is a tangible living proof, which for me spoke to every particle in my body saying – this is also who you truly are.” – a most powerful and truly inspiring communication! And a quality of reflection that is sorely needed in our world today…

  46. Something that I appreciate everyday about myself is how beautiful it feels to move my body, the flow, ease, fluidity and grace in how I move is light years from the hardened body I had forced myself to become before Universal Medicine.

  47. The power of reflection is huge, most of what Serge Benhayon presents, I know innately, yet had not chosen to live until I saw Serge and many others actually, physically living it.

    1. My experience with Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine is that I was finally confirmed in everything I was feeling, it has almost been a relief to know that all of the things I have been feeling were true and that another feels the same way.

  48. When a person really takes care of themselves it can not fail to inspire. It is relatively rare to observe this in people. The way they hold their body, how engaged and vital they are, how open they are to others, the way they have no issues with having issues because they have been healing, the lack of imposition of a nurtured and loved body is amazing to observe. This without perfection is the lived way of an Esoteric Practioner, I have been deeply inspired by this way and now live this for myself, true healing, self governing, self empowering choices to heal and really care for my body. Love it!

  49. The truly amazing thing about the reflections we receive from Serge Benhayon is how there is never an once of comparison or better than. His reflections are always about holding you as an equal.

    1. And this is tangibly felt – that he knows exactly who you are in truth and holds you in that equalness.

  50. There is nothing like going into a practitioners room where you are with someone who has made a commit to live their life with responsibility, for themselves, with awareness for the all. The holding quality and integrity is like nothing else I have experienced. This is Esoteric Medicine.

  51. The Universal Medicine Therapies offer you a new marker that you can then choose to live or not.

  52. “The power of reflection is that it is a tangible living proof, which for me spoke to every particle in my body saying – this is also who you truly are.” What I find so interesting is to not only observe my own movements when there are such beautiful reflections around me, but also when I get to see my own reflection in a photograph or maybe a short video of how I am moving, as it has brought me an awareness of how awkward and hard my movements sometimes feel and can be.

  53. Becoming more responsible for what we reflect to others is how we establish strong community values.

  54. How we move makes such a difference, being aware of my movements and their quality changes life for us and others. Hard moves, is a choice that is felt by others and this impacts on all. Gentleness is not a weakness, there is wisdom, strength and power in it.

  55. A beautiful appreciation and sharing on the amazing way that it is possible to live that can be felt from your very living way. Inspirational and very cool.

  56. Reflection being the only thing that broke down the consciousnesses you were held by has stood out for me today. It’s something I know deeply. If someone says something that is true but isn’t living this truth I will only get it on a mental level if I haven’t lived it myself. It also highlights a responsibility I have to reflect and express what I live and not any truths I would like to live but do not; if I am not living them then really they remain lofty ideals because I do not know them truly in my body.

    1. Reflection is so powerful. It often does not need words yet can communicate everything. This is how much we see and feel in life. We notice people walk, how they speak, the look in their eyes, the touch and movement in their hands and so on. Because I know this power of reflection, every day when I walk into many different schools I know exactly the power of how I move and what that says to the children and staff. Simply gorgeous to see and feel the responses.

  57. The more I move gently the more I am aware of the way my body is set in a way to not move gently. I can feel the tension and ‘bigness’ of my shoulders and upper arms as I move around, and I can feel that my default is still to move in a driven way. As I choose gentleness and observe the patterns of holding that are in my body they are free to clear and release. Judging myself for the hardness does not help as it simply adds more hardness. Lovingly observing it is allowing myself to truly feel it for what it is and from here let it go. It is more apparent now than it has ever been.

  58. The respect that I have for Serge Benhayon and what he represents is out of this world, it is true Serge brings the cosmos to us and all the Love that the universes represent and thus the space to heal in our own time. This is truly a Godly aspect that this Humble man Serge Benhayon shares with everyone equally. And from Serge’s presentation we are all equally Sons of God.

  59. “Our movements have the power to reflect our multidimensionality and the grand intelligence we are all from.” This is revolutionary. Imagine a world that lives this truth in full.

  60. When I appreciate in full every constellation in my life reflecting to me everything I am to learn I can only have understanding and love. It turns all my relationships upside down from blame to taking responsibility.

  61. I too have been so inspired by others through their movement. When someone else is moving in their presence and stillness I can feel my body respond instantly and feel a deeper connection to mine. It has supported me to focus on my movement and appreciate the power of what can be felt when I do.

  62. “Our movements have the power to reflect our multidimensionality and the grand intelligence we are all from.” What a beautiful realisation and confirmation of how everything maters and it is the quality of this that counts.

  63. Appreciating our uniqueness and taking responsibility for all of our activity in life (movements, thoughts, conversations…) brings us to a deeper and richer relationship with ourselves, everyone and life.

    1. Yes. We are the only one with our unique combination of traits and the flavour we bring. So if we don’t appreciate this and bring it then the world misses out.

  64. Each moment of our life is a choice of quality that we make. The way I opened up this blog, read and felt the words, scrolled down and type my comment here – everything contains an energy which we literally embody. The life we live is just a result of all the movements that we make in our way. What you show beautifully Johanna, is if we truly want to make a change then it’s time to align to a new energy instead.

  65. There are so many reflections available to us all of the time, but quite often we are not aware of them, or we don’t take the time to appreciate what is before us and we miss the moment. What happens then is another reflection comes along, and another and another until we are ready.

    1. True Rosie. There are so many and this is a blessing. Everything is a reflection. The great, the bad and the ugly. Everything is reflecting something to us for us to read, be aware of, learn from, confirm the truth of who we are or for us to renounce as not the truth.

      1. Another thing to consider is that we, ourselves are constantly reflecting to others and I often ask myself, what are you reflecting?

  66. I agree how I am now, I could not have thought was possible 10 – 15 years ago and I am only in my 40’s, and so I am for sure feeling much more amazing now than I did in my 20’s….this does not fit in with how many people feel and live, many people tell me they are tired and getting old in their 40’s…lots to appreciate about the choice to be open to healing and that everything is energy….life feels and is different…vitality, joy and energy are present.

  67. You have chosen your journey of reconnection to your body and observed the reflection of movement in others for you to change how you feel and move in your own body. A great testament to you Johanna, doing it and sharing it. I love what you write here “Our movements have the power to reflect our multidimensionality and the grand intelligence we are all from” and share your unique expression.

  68. I love this appreciation of the practitioners you have met along the way, and how the inspiration from meeting and working with them has transformed your own life.

  69. I love how you appreciate the different qualities that different practitioners are offering – every one of us, practitioner or not, have our own unique expression, and this will naturally be part of any session or connection we may have.

  70. With Beverly Carter I have learnt to enjoy moving my body and to enjoy exercise which since school had become something that I hated and resisted. Beverly Carter has shown me that there is a way to move that not only honours me but supports me to feel amazing at the same time.

  71. Thank you Johanna. This feels like a living moving testimonial not only to the practitioners but also to your dedication to your quality of movement; and is very inspiring to read.

  72. I completely agree it is the reflection of others and loving support has also allowed me to embody more connection to my soul, as I absolutely agree ‘The rejoining to the love of my Soul is my sole purpose in this life – in truth the purpose of every incarnation, and nothing feels as joy-full.’

  73. I agree that nothing is more powerful or more inspiring than reflections through feeling and sensing the expanding quality of movement or vibration that we get when we meet someone living with their soul.

  74. “And I know that through the way I am with the quality of my movements, that I too provide and inspire others to remember the light they are from, just as I was once inspired.”

    A sentence for me to be read over and over again. It’s a pattern in me to see and feel what others mean to me and how they support me. I realise that I give little attention to what I provide and inspire. This feels as a no-go-area, but in choosing so I can feel I miss out on a lot of joy and the feeling of self-appreciation. Thank you! This set already a smile on my face. A great start of the day.

  75. The quality that Serge Benhayon holds within his body, the way he moves, relates and connects with people is a constant inspiration and therefore lays before us a constant choice to choose this way of living for our selves. There are no ‘have to’s’ or ‘must do’s’ just a consistent reminder of an immensely still and beautiful quality that is available to all of us when we truly understand just how precious and worthy we naturally are.

  76. True refection is similar to true role models and we are fortunate to have so many of both with in the Universal Medicine student body which supports us to surrender to/claim the very thing that we can see in the other. This is what we were lacking growing up and now we know the importance of true reflection we have a responsibility to be this for others.

  77. In all the Esoteric Practitioners you mention [and more outside of this], i find the key quality is the practice towards honouring the body in gentleness whether hands-on healing, exercising or in movement. Restoration of this quality is restoration of the body and of life too.

  78. It is only through the appreciation of who we are and the power of our reflection that we can keep moving forward responding to the pull of evolution no matter what! we also get to see how amazing life is and the beautiful reflections from others constantly inspiring us to be more.

  79. Movement and its effect on our body is something that continues to evolve for me. I can see that I really had no idea what connection to my body was as the more I commit to taking the time to develop a connection, the more I realise how little connection I had. So my marker for what is normal is forever shifting and in the most magical and wonderful way. I could never go back to the tension I held in my body, it was chronic illness just waiting to happen.

  80. Having markers in my day of the times when I bring focus to my movement they in turn develop another. For example, I started doing this on my morning walk but have now also become more aware of the way I drive my car, when this feels like a flow and when it does not. When it does I can feel how I am not affected by how other people choose to drive and remain fully connected to me first, then out to others.

  81. Ditto, Johanna, I would not trade this journey for anything either. The joy and all the qualities that come with reconnecting to your soul is a path worth taking, in every life, and taking this out to others so they can feel the reflection and be inspired.

  82. Thanks to the absolute support, as you say from Serge Benhayon and his family, the Universal Medicine practitioners and a huge student body I am re-engaging with our multidimensionality and grand intelligence that comes with that connection and it is the greatest gift I can give back to myself; my connection back to God and the Hierarchy.

  83. It wasn’t until I started receiving esoteric healing did I fully realise two very important facts. One was just how much stress and grief was trapped in my body from incidents that had happened years ago and two, how numb parts of my body were. Every session received has allowed my body to relinquish stress, trauma and some very ill fitting beliefs and basically defrost it, so that today I fully appreciate just how sensitive and precious my body is because I can feel it all. Awesome healing modalities that empower us to truly realise who we are and our bodies to recover their natural vitality from the inside out.

  84. Reading this blog I realise that by focusing solely on doing that I’m only paying attention to my skills and maybe learning to better my skills. Whereas if I focus on what I reflect, I’m focusing on my being-ness. As my movements come from within, which is my reflection, it is indeed wise to take gentle care of my connection with me on the inside.

  85. Some of the connective tissue exercises Kate Greenaway presents are simple movements we can do whenever we are sitting down. Nothing is complicated and all of them help us to reconnect deep within, which feels exquisite.

  86. In a world that moves a certain way it’s such a blessing to witness and feel movement impulsed from divinity. We are stunning when we move from love and the flow of the universe. It may seem at odds with how the world is but can feel something inside us saying yes this makes sense and from this feel the question, so what am I usually moving in?!

    1. I agree it really is a blessing when we see others move with divinity as it is when we ourselves do. For me it feels like a flow – I can relate it to swimming it can be a fluid flowing movement gliding through the water or it can feel like a struggle with a feeling a resistance. It may seem subtle with words but the reality is like polar opposites.

  87. I can feel the absolute difference between having moments of moving like this and having it as a living way – it is the later which such practitioners reflect to us. I can feel the importance of appreciating our own quality in between movements to support the next.

  88. That is exactly it is the every day chores that makes the difference, when we bring our awareness to the quality in the way we are being and going around and doing things then we start to claim who we are and what we are about. If we just get on with life like ground hog day then what is running us?

  89. A beautiful sharing on the reflections that have inspired you and all that means to humanity “.Today I now live this reflection – I live me. And I know that through the way I am with the quality of my movements, that I too provide and inspire others to remember the light they are from, just as I was once inspired.”

  90. Esoteric yoga programs have been a great way to get to know myself more deeply and build a more loving relationship with my body.

  91. Feeling me inside my own body is the most precious and fullfilling that I have ever experienced. The moment I am feeling me, it is like feeling home again. We’re gorgeous. Moving with this gorgeousness is very, very precious, yummie and natural.

  92. I agree Johanna, our movement and our awareness concerning movement can be connected to ourselves or more in a functioning way. Movement with connection considers the whole body, our rythm and the quality we do it in, the intention and the purpose.

  93. “Today, in my body, I live something that I could not have imagined ten years ago – as it was nowhere within my then conscious awareness.” Ditto and whilst there is always the opportunity to build and deepen the care and love I hold for myself and therefore others the difference already is staggering, the key though now is not staying still.

  94. The holding power in the reflection of Serge Benhayon can be felt in every particle of my body and through this holding my body is able to surrender, to surrender to that quality that lives in me. The quality of the love we are all from and so desperately looking for. As with you Johanna, this reflection of Serge and the Universal Medicine practitioners do inspire me to be the same and rekindle in me the fire that is my natural source of life.

    1. I agree Nico this holding power or reflection of love is a very real and tangible experience that I have also felt in my body and has always confirmed for me what I have accepted as true or not in this world. My whole body comes alive whenever I am in the presence of Serge Benhayon – it fires up and responds to the reflection or pull to be more of who I naturally am. It is an undeniable energetic communication beyond words or what our five senses can detect.

      1. And in fact it is amazing how this reflection works. Imagine one day if we would all live love like Serge Benhayon is living now how life then would look like. We would be pulling each other up to be more of ourselves in any interaction or communication being made. Reminding each other that we are so much more then only flesh and blood, that we also have that inner fire that can light brightly and to bring Gods light in everything that we do and to any place in the world. To clean up the mess we made of it when we where living in ignorance and denial of the eternal fire we belong to.

  95. Reflections are super amazing, they need no words or not many, but they stir up everything within us. No matter whether the reflections reflect to us something we can aspire to, or something we do not want to be a part of, either way reflections have the power to pull us higher than our current state through inspiration.

  96. “My only answer is Reflection – reflection of movement” – a reflection that can be still, or moving because of the quality it is reflecting – stillness, divinity, the light of soul.

  97. The quality of my movements affect the quality of my thoughts and my choices. I notice how it hugely affects the my quality of my interaction and connection with others.

  98. The reflections offered by every single person we interact with are a reflection of us – no matter what their behaviour is, there is a part of us that behaves like that too… it may not look the same but the energy is the same. To appreciate all that another offers by way of reflection is evolutionary for us all.

  99. How we live, our everyday movements, are clocked by everyone around us – children especially. Our reflection is either one of inspiration, or not, but either way there will be those who choose to behave in the same way.

    1. That comment about it being clocked by children is spot on – and animals I have found. I have a feeling it is because they are more at ease with the space and flow in their bodies, therefore they can recognise when someone is tense or at ease in theirs. The more space the less imposing that person is to be around. Much to continue to observe here and actually to step into myself so I am aware of how imposing I am in every moment.

  100. What we live with in our body is what we walk down the street, what we have changed in our eating and drinking habits is with us in restaurants, cafes and bars, how we are in our relationships is with us at work, in our homes and in places we visit where there are other people. Thanks to the many practitioners of Universal Medicine who have supported us in so many ways, we can walk with confidence, grace and joy, eat and drink nourishing foods, and be calm and suitably responsive in challenging situations wherever we are.

  101. Johanna I love this, just reading this I can feel your refection and the power of your words pulling me up to be more of who I am. Reflection is so powerful. Serge Benhayon has reflected to us all there is another way, a way that is our innate way.

  102. Reflection is the mirror that is held up to show what is true and what is not in the world. Although the false reflections may dazzle and entice us, we know from the way our bodies respond if it is a true reflection, the way we know we could naturally be moving and living without the impositions of trying to fit in and not stand out.

  103. We are very blessed with a wealth of esoteric healing modalities and extraordinary practitioners that support us to discover who we truly are and to move with our god given grace. There is nothing else on earth like it.

    1. They are a complement to conventional medicine and truly leading the way in true health and wellbeing.

  104. ‘..how engaging their eyes were..’ this is something that I have noticed many times from the practitioners I see – a feeling of being held and truly seen.

    1. And the engagement although I first struggled to be met in that depth but once I let go of that I found it the most delicious thing to be met with love and engaged with in the eyes with no imposition.

    2. The connection in their eyes is beautiful, a deep holding energy, giving space for us to be open and surrender deeper as we allow our body to connect to the universal energy available to us.

  105. Appreciation goes a long way, it changes life to appreciate those who shine their light and how when we see it we respond to it and shine our own light brighter.

    1. Yes I feel the same Samantha. Appreciation is magic, it supports everyone and we feel the joy in everything and everyone when we appreciate more and more.

  106. The basis of all work for an esoteric practitioner (in the true meaning of the term) stems from a deep care for people. So whether it be exercise, stretching, healing and or other services provided to someone who genuinally cares for others. You receive a full package of ongoing learning, inspiration and development to support yourself and others to grow.

    1. And it comes from many angles and points of reflections that makes it very accessible and implementable.

    2. I agree Abby Universal Medicine Practitioners genuinely care about people, it is not about the money. Their session prices have not gone up in over 10 years, that alone says a lot.

  107. ‘…reflections have continued to inspire me and also expose little pockets that do not belong with the grandness of who I am’ . Its great to appreciate the reflections that expose us as well as the ones that confirm us.

    1. Very true. For the ones we expose we can always choose to reimprinted these with a true way and for the ones we confirm we can then bring that to other areas of life. Magical.

    2. We are being reflected to by others the whole time, how often are we honest about what is being reflected and address what is needed or appreciate and confirm the choices we have made to be where we are?

  108. Learning to ‘move with me’ has been and is an ever continuing healing to return to the loving tenderness I truly am.

  109. We develop understanding through our relationships with one another. Understanding is of great value. Without it at best we operate from knowledge and miss out on the warmth and joy felt from connecting deeply with others.

  110. When I move with me I am making myself available for Heaven to come through me. When I move without me its as if I am placing a lid on my head.

  111. ‘Our movements have the power to reflect our multidimensionality and the grand intelligence we are all from.’ and this is our absolute responsibility.

  112. ‘Our movements have the power to reflect our multidimensionality and the grand intelligence we are all from.’ I will take this into my day and move in this awareness knowing that this is the responsibility we hold as we move through our day.

  113. When I read the word moving for a long time I thought about a physical movement from my body. Which in fact is true, but my voice or my facial expression is not something I have considered as movements. Of course they are, everything is a movement. A movement of energy. Typing, dressing, cooking, working etc. are all movements. Am I with me or not, that determines the quality of the particular movement. Movement gets a broader and broader meaning in my life.

  114. ‘Our movements have the power to reflect our multidimensionality and the grand intelligence we are all from.’ This is a source of inspiration, something we could all do with a lot more of. Inspiration brings out the best in people.

  115. “Moving with me” seems such a simple thing, but keeping my 100% focus on the way I move and all I do through the day is a lot more challenging than I could have imagined. I get so easily caught up in what needs doing next, and ‘next’ can take me a long way off in to the future! Watching someone who moves with absolute presence is such a grace, a deep lesson in the power of returning to the quality of the body in every moment, staying aware of and responding to all the messages their body is constantly receiving.

  116. Today l was pondering the question about how can l be more love. This blog gives me some awesome examples of ways to take my self loving deeper. Thankyou Johanna.

  117. “Over the years, in reclaiming myself as a walking living Son of God, rebuilding my body to be one that my Soul can have full access to express the love and truth of who we truly are, I have come to have a strong understanding of how important our movements are and just what it is they are reflecting.” For me to Johanna and understanding and being aware that every movement is not just a movement, it is movement towards God or not and the more I can live this the deeper my awareness is and the more beauty I see around me, life no longer carries the mundaness and tediousness of trying to get through life.

  118. The power of the esoteric modalities is incredible and the integrity of the practitioners is something that is very rare to find, in fact I’ve not experienced before any organisation that puts the core focus on energetic integrity. What I do know is the results speak for themselves and how i feel in my body after a treatment/session is far more at ease and with me.

  119. Our awareness of our bodies is not something we are truly taught at home or in school, and the connective tissue is such a vital part of our body’s health that not teaching about it is a crime of omission.

  120. What a blessing Johanna, and to appreciate what we bring in-between the moments of being joy-full, is important. Then with an authority there is no space for anything because we are being in our absolute power and being aware of how amazing we are thus appreciating our own presence. In all honesty we have to accept that the appreciation of who we are in-between our humble-moments-of-magnificence so that being appreciative bridges the gap to the next moment of glory. Could be a so simple a joy-full experience then appreciation of that so the next point of evolution would be full of gloriousness then appreciation and so on? You have to appreciate that simplicity.

  121. The reflection offered by such amazing and practitioners is amazing but strangely what they are actually offering us is the opportunity to observe and feel what is normal for us rather than what we have come to choose as an alternative.

  122. We’re not here to heal anyone, everybody will heal themselves if they so choose. In offering loving reflections we are the biggest support they could imagine.

    The modern world has lost themselves in doing, and by this choice making the outside much more important than the inside. Movement and reflections can only be felt. How amazing that feeling ourselves is on its way to become the new black. Living together in harmony, co-creating together with the light of the love we come from.

  123. There’s nothing more inspiring that seeing and watching someone move differently, we massively underestimate the impact our movements have on the world around us and the way we move could actually inspire someone to change their life.

    1. The way we move is much more influential than we’ve given credit to. We all read movements all of the time.
      Yet we take it for granted. We overlook and override the feelings we register from them as they are reflected to us in our daily lives.

  124. Being continually reminded by Serge Benhayon and the teachings of Universal Medicine that it is all about my inner quality and this relationship first and foremost I have started to appreciate that life is much much more. In sessions with practitioners I am supported to deepen this connection and I am amazed at the endless depths that continues to present itself. At times I feel I am only scratching the surface.

  125. Johanna, like you I have discarded many ideals and beliefs that have stagnated my body and kept me small, feeling insignificant as though I was taking up too much space.
    Living as I do today full of life, vim and vigor, was not on my radar ten years ago either.
    Serge Benhayon to me is someone beyond their time brought back to humanity to reflect another way to live and by living in a harmonious way we can reignite within us that desire to seek our origins and go back to them, we are not meant to be here on this Earth we are the visitors and we have trashed and abused something that doesn’t even belong to us.

  126. I was at a workshop this weekend which was all about connection with others, the presenters had such an exquisitely mesmerising quality, not only in their movements but in their relationship with each other and every single person in the room. It was an absolute joy to be in their presence and it showed me how much and how quickly we can learn, in an instant, when we let go of our protection and allow ourselves to connect with ourselves and everyone else. It’s hard to explain in words as they seem so inadequate for the immediate knowing you feel in your heart. The reflection of divinity from another instantly reminds us of all that we are too.

  127. I am appreciating more and more the gift of healing that we offer each other, even without using any of the esoteric modalities, just be being open and honest, sharing our love and speaking our truth.

  128. The Science of Reflection works on both the obvious and subtle levels and therefore is irresistible. What we may reject in our minds our bodies never fail to receive, because we are all made up from the same molecules that speak the same energetic language. When one person moves and communicates from their innate tenderness, our body instantly recognizes this inherent quality and cannot help but respond.

  129. There is something very beautiful and deeply profound about someone moving in a way that is totally in connection with their body.

  130. I love being in the presence of Serge especially and to sit and not take my eyes off how he moves. There is a fullness, purpose and consistency to his every movement and it inspires me to be more full of myself, have greater purpose in life and it has introduced me to living consistently. I deeply appreciate Serge Benhayon and other reflections around me who are now living and moving in this way.

    1. As well Serge Benhayon is so light in his movement, when I watch him walk I know we are not contained to this body, I can feel how his particles are universal and I know that we belong to something far greater than this earth. Serge Benhayon lives the future now and reflects to us that we too can live this.

  131. “The power of reflection is that it is a tangible living proof” – yes of how we are (in our truth), or how we are not. It is the pull of evolution.

  132. ‘Through others I got to see there was something deeper, precious and beholding which was very natural that I was not living and connecting to.’ It is so lovely to have these regular reminders and pull-ups that reflect how we are living, we can be far more tender with ourselves, and more loving.

  133. We don’t like to face it – but the truth is, everything we do is vitally important when it comes to the quality with which we move. It seems we’d like to be part-time Lovers with all the benefits in the world, but what you present beautifully Johanna here is that each and every thing is equally deserving of our light. So let’s not deceive ourselves that we can escape from the oneness of life.

  134. Today I watched closely somebody eating and I could see the delicateness in the way she was using her fork and knife. For the first time I could really feel that this is a movement. A way of being with oneself and from there an expression. Wonderful and inspiring to watch and to reflect on for myself. Indeed, everything’s a movement.

  135. We have always lived reflections, I have always moulded myself on what I saw. I remember growing up taking on things from my Dad and men and peers around me. There were qualities I saw in women as well that I tried to mould into my life to make myself ‘perfect’. I ended up a bits and pieces person that change myself to fit into what ever was going on, it was very much be seen but not heard. What I have realised is that we all watch each other, whether we are conscious of it or not, we are all watching all the time. I use to try and just take the things I liked about someone or something and make them my own and yet this not only never worked but with this part came other parts that I necessarily didn’t like. So what was the answer or how did this end? When I meet up with Universal Medicine and at that point in particular Serge Benhayon, I saw there was more depth to this reflection I had always used or seen, a true reflection. I was suspect at first because I had been burnt by this other reflection numerous times so I sat and waited, waited for something to show me this ‘true reflection’ was going to fail like all the others. It didn’t and what’s more it hasn’t, I now still live from what I see but I bring it all back to a point, a point of living. I don’t just arrive and pick up something I like in reflection as I’d done in the past. I take care and detail with how I move, the quality I am and from that point I watch to see what is reflected and how it makes me feels. If there is a point where the reflection offers me another level of freedom in movement then it’s yes and even if it doesn’t from where I live reflections are always bringing awareness to some point. So it’s a living true reflection that doesn’t stop and start and cherry pick parts, it takes in everything knowing from there everything that is there is truly reflected.

    1. Love it Ray, what an amazing reflect you have provided us all. And like you I have been burnt many times and at times I still get a little scorched on the edges but all in all my movements back to my Soul are Guarantied. So by my commitment to the Loving reflection From Serge Benhayon and Students like your-self Ray who are fully committed to the movements back to our Soul, which is without the ‘cherry picking part’ so that ’true reflection’ come from True-Love.

  136. I too have had the experience of the most pertinent practitioner presenting at the most appropriate time and offering me the reflection or the support I most need. Just magic!

  137. What came up for me when reading this today is how we are all practitioners and how the Esoteric Healing modalities are amazing to be used in our homes within our family. Having felt like my kidneys were in pain, I did a swap session (lower back massage) with my wife for just 10min and what an amazing difference I felt, it shows the power we have when we embrace the techniques that have been provided and how its our responsibility to use them.

  138. I do become more and more aware of the fact that it is all about movement, how the way I move in my body is impacting me on how I am in life and and, the reflection I present to others and what my next choice or step in life will be. Do I keep on moving in the same way or do I deepen and allow more space in my movement and connect more deeply with the all we are part off.

  139. Beautiful to feel your journey of unfolding your movements into a deeper tenderness and sensitivity.

  140. “Appreciating Esoteric Practitioners – I move with ME!” – learning to appreciate is a step in evolving and with evolving always is there movement : )

  141. I love re-visiting this blog as a moment of appreciation for everything I and we have been given by Universal Medicine, for the ceaseless support with every aspect of our return to soul.

  142. The power of reflection has been captured beautifully in this blog. I never used to be aware of it but we actually notice every little detail about the way other people are. We notice the way the check out person packs the groceries, how much eye contact they give us or how they swipe our card. All these details we are clocking constantly. Most of what we are clocking is what I now see as peer pressure or the reflection of the norm. When actions and behaviours are everywhere around us, this sends a strong message of what society finds acceptable. But then you get reflections like the Benhayon family and the Universal Medicine student body. This stands out and offers us a reminder that the norm is not actually our true normal.

  143. The level of detail that we can go into when we start looking at the way we move and it’s results is inspiring and those practitioners offer just such a reflection.

  144. We’re not our body, but our body is crucial in all the ways we can imagine. As a species, we’re not giving it the grace and respect that our body deserves as we make choices during the day. Moving and choosing from (the connection with) our body makes life very simple, yet very, very interesting, healing and inspiring. We could see the Grandness we all are in every-body if we so choose. And by choosing so we align ourselves back to the love and wisdom we all are and come from.

  145. The Science of Reflection is something that is taught by Universal Medicine and one of the many invaluable tools that they offer, because as you share there are certain pictures and beliefs we hold that we are unaware of and only by reflection are we able to realise that they are there and can address and deal with them.

  146. Sometimes the greatest appreciation we can give ourselves is to honestly look back and see where it is we stand today – we can come so far and transform in so many ways and yet because for us it has been a process we can become unaware of its magnitude.

  147. When we recognise a reflection, there becomes no way of taking it personally or acting with self judgment. The reflection becomes the inspiration, and hence, opportunity to surrender, ‘let-go’ and evolve.

  148. Everyone is of value and has something that only they can offer as part of their contribution to society (our fellow brethren). So what do you offer?

  149. The power of reflection is the magic of God on earth. We can so easily forget our power and think we need to convince or explain but a living way, is a way that speaks to the cells in our body, not just our mind. 

    1. I agree, we are so much more powerful than we realise, the pictures we keep in our minds of who we are are but a smidgeon, a speck of the whole picture of our amazing power. We are indeed earth shifting potentials walking around.

  150. It is true there is not one thing that always supports us but many things that can support us at different times and so we can be supported by many people but one is not better than the other. In the world at the moment making a good product is often about being better than someone else and that becomes the goal. But what if we would recognise that if we work together, instead of compete, we could make all great products with serving humanity as a purpose?

    1. Exactly Lieke, it is about serving people, to serve that what is truly needed and not to serve our own little self purpose or wallet instead. And in that we do need as many different flavours (without competition) as these will actually all will bring another aspect of the whole we do need to unite as one once again.

    2. Lieke how different would life feel if we were to sit on chairs that were made lovingly, drive cars that were made lovingly, eat with cutlery that was made lovingly, sleep in beds that were made lovingly? Our bodies would be bombarded by love, rather than neglect.

    3. ‘we can be supported by many people but one is not better than the other.’ Insightful Lieke. The potential is there to be inspired by everyone we meet, each relationship offers an opportunity to evolve.

  151. When we can feel the reality of how someone is living it is so much more inspiring than words that may be empty of the living way that is being talked about. To witness and feel the way someone is living actually shows our body what is possible, and it is possible to then choose it for ourselves. If someone is talking about it but doesn’t live it then there is nothing different to feel.

  152. When we stand out from the ‘norm’ as a result of our choices or movements we often react to this and lessen ourselves to fit in, but is this really worth more than the fact that, ‘our movements have the power to reflect our multidimensionality and the grand intelligence we are all from’?

  153. With such an extraordinary selection of inspiring practitioners… How can we not tune our bodies up to the point where they are indeed living reflections of the light that is within.

  154. ‘The rejoining to the love of my Soul is my sole purpose in this life – in truth the purpose of every incarnation, and nothing feels as joy-full.’ Life’s true purpose.

  155. Receiving a reflection that there is another way of being then what you have always known is the start to true change.

  156. Reflection and our movements are everything both of which I learnt from Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine.

  157. ahh the beauty of Esoteric therapies, I had never ventured into trying acupuncture or massage but when m friend offered me esoteric Chakra puncture I knew I wanted to try it even though I had not a clue what it was. Best decision EVER

  158. Our movements really do have the power to reflect the mulitidemtionality we are from. I’m appreciating how we are all multidimentional regardless if whether we are choosing to live that in full, I know I can bring that reflection to the world when I am connected with my essence.

  159. ‘Our movements have the power to reflect our multidimensionality and the grand intelligence we are all from.’ We express much more from our bodies than we may care to realise.

  160. It is through feeling the energetic quality of someones expression and the quality of their movements that we feel the totality of what is being shared with us.

  161. It feels like Reflection plays a very important and powerful role in our collective return to living the truth of who we are.

  162. Bringing attention to the quality of our movement means that we have to come back to our bodies and stay present with our selves in all we do. A challenge for those of us who like to rush ahead of our selves, daydream and check out, but a hugely positive undertaking as it empowers us to return to and cherish the very vehicle that propels us through this third dimension, innately in tune with the Universal Intelligence that we are enveloped in.

  163. I am constantly inspired by the many awesome people around me and I even inspire myself!!!

  164. Reflection is everything. Words mean nothing if they are not backed up by reflection and a living example. In fact, when we are or are presented with a loving example, words are often not needed.

  165. CL OH

    In an esoteric healing session today I had some hands on body work. I could feel the dedication of the practitioner to bring focus to the quality of every movement she makes in her life, in the quality of her touch and movement of her hands. Deeply appreciated. Thank you, Sara.

  166. It can indeed be very uncomfortable to witness the choices we are making which is why a lot of us tend to prefer to not be aware of them. However, even though we are not consciously aware of them they are registered in the body which always reflects the choices we make.

  167. I never used to pay much attention to the quality of my movements because I was not choosing to be aware of how powerful our movements can be. I felt many reactions to people’s quality of movements but I was oblivious to how my movements were affecting people around me. Since becoming aware of energetic responsibility I realise how powerful it is to move in a way that supports healing and how my choices affect the quality of my movements.

  168. Your sharing also shows us that it is US that has to take the steps towards the observation and enquiry to what we see, hear, or feel, that then takes us closer to understanding life, ourselves, and ultimately to evolve.

  169. You show here in your blog how being aware of reflections, what we see and hear in any interaction, develops an acute level of awareness and learning about energy and hence, understanding about oneself and life.

  170. It is always great to observe how much care people take of themselves, it is such a beautiful reflection for me to ponder on how much I take care to be gentle and in a self-supporting rhythm as I go about my day.

  171. ‘Moving with me’ is a constant unfolding. I have found Esoteric Yoga invaluable in supporting me to find new markers for what this means..

  172. How different life could be if we are offered the reflection of our innate grandness from birth. The belief that we are born ignorant – or worse – and have to be educated in how to live might then be exposed as false. We might nurture the amazingness of our children instead.

  173. “Our movements have the power to reflect our multidimensionality and the grand intelligence we are all from.” Yes, Johanna, I have stopped trying to convince anyone that there is so much to life than what we have settled for, because I know that if I live the truth of that, my movements will remind others of a divine quality that resides within them also.

    1. Yes Janet, I realise too that ‘trying to convince others’ pushes them further away. By just letting them be and accepting them as they are, they are more likely to be open to reconnecting with themselves and our reflection will then ‘remind others of a divine quality that resides within them also’.

  174. “The power of reflection is that it is a tangible living proof, which for me spoke to every particle in my body saying – this is also who you truly are.” There is no greater way to teach than by the lived example.

  175. Reflection is the most powerful way to learn, it goes way beyond any words or lesson plan. The way a person enters a room, engages another person, the way they dress and walk speaks to all our senses at once, an all-encompassing lesson that we observe and learn from one another everyday. The reflection that Serge Benhayon, his family, team and many of those who study his work provide has raised the bar on what it means to really live, vital, committed and joyful, reflections humanity is desperately craving for.

  176. “Today I now live this reflection – I live me.” what a great point to appreciate. It’s through the reflection that Serge Benhayon has lived, as have the Benhayon family and so many of others, that I too am now living my truth, reflecting to the world what is possible and it’s deeply amazing.

  177. Its interesting that when a group of people gather behind a particular philosophy, political idea, social injustice these are referred to as ‘movements’. Here is an equally powerful but much more practical example of a movement that inspires thousands.

    1. Great point Simon – you could say many harmful dictators led movements just as many Soul inspired people have. So we have a responsibility to discern the energy behind our movement (what we are reflecting) and those of others. This is where Serge Benhayon’s teachings in relation to the difference between spirit and Soul are critical. You can hear and read some of those presentation at Unimedpedia: http://www.unimedliving.com/unimedpedia/word-index/unimedpedia-spirit.html

  178. It’s such a different and very beautiful way of being to be open to the fact that each and every day, by the fact of Universal law, situations are constellating just for us, for us to learn something new, or offer us confirmation of something we have learnt. The more we aware we are of how we move and the quality of our movements it completely changes our focus, which becomes so much more spherical – meaning we are no longer driven by a list of things to tick off that we work through with hastening speed as the list grows, rather it’s about the quality of our presence and movement in each and everything that we do. As we complete one thing, the sphere completes and we move on to the next. Allowing the space to be open means that we see and feel the magic that surrounds us, that we would otherwise have missed, we learn by maybe being impulsed to do something another way, and most of all, we get to feel our exquisite divinity in all that we do, and so does everyone else.

  179. ‘Today, in my body, I live something that I could not have imagined ten years ago – as it was nowhere within my then conscious awareness.’ – this really highlights to me how crippling it has been to ‘think that I know’, and living so many years being restricted by what my brain tells me it knows, rather than surrendering to my body and connecting to its unfathomable wisdom. That notion that our brains hold our intelligence has held us all in captivity for way too long.

    1. Alison, like wild animals in a cage, we are caged by our reliance on our intelligence yet at least a wild animal knows it’s in a cage.. until recently I thought I was always free.

  180. It is great to feel the reflection we can get from others but as a forever student of my-self it is my reflection from the mirror that needs all of me ‘so the ripple of Reflection continues…’ ‘This is why I am forever humbled and grateful for the unique ‘qualities’ that every human being is designed to bring in life, including’ you Johanna.

  181. Redeveloping my relationship with my body and an awareness of it when I move reveals so much whilst feeling so amazing – the most supportive relationship we can ever be in – the one when we surrender to our body and all that lies within.

  182. We have a responsibility to reflect back to all humanity that we are divine beings living in a human body and that we are not here to better life but for us to all evolve back to where we came from….God.

    1. Love what you share here, Mary-Louise …. so true, it’s not about us building our own castle, we are all already so much more than anything we can build or buy and we all already belong to the most magnificent kingdom imaginable. It is up to each of us to live this knowing in our every movement for others to remember who they truly are and where they are from.

  183. We are all here together, this blog confirms that we are designed to work and grow with others.

    1. Yes we are here to all bring our very divine piece of the puzzle to the all.

  184. ‘The power of reflection is that it is a tangible living proof, which for me spoke to every particle in my body saying – this is also who you truly are.’ – I can relate to this, reflection offers an opportunity for our particles to re-awaken to that which stems from our true origin.

  185. I love this blog Johanna, it’s so gorgeous to read and feel your depth of appreciation. It has my appreciation juices flowing.

  186. I love your choices Johanna, you reflect to everyone how we have so much support from many shining lights around us, with the Benhayon family and many great practitioners, helping us to reconnect to the amazingness and grandness we all truly are.

  187. It feels so great to come back to my body and move with me. When I do so I wonder why I ever choose anything else. Why would I look elsewhere when I already have everything within me to feel absolutely awesome. And every movement magnifies this.

  188. I one billion percent agree that what inspires me the most is how other people move, more than anything they can say, it’s the quality they walk in and touch things and carry things and how they open doors, the reflections from our movements are much more powerful than we often realise.

    1. Completely agree Meg. And the beauty is that now we have many many around the world who go to their workplaces, are with their families and friends and just live everyday life in a responsible and loving quality – reflecting this truth through their movements.

  189. Our bodies recognise true love, whereas our minds get tricked by the romantic love that parades itself as true love, without having so much as a whiff of the real stuff in it.

  190. “I have discarded many of the ideals and beliefs that had me living a lie …” It’s not until we begin to shed these ideals and beliefs do we realize just how incarcerated we have been by them. The Ageless Wisdom empowers us to journey back to our true selves, consistently revealing more and more miracles that go way beyond all our pictures and imaginings.

    1. Very true Rowena. I also feel that the more lies and beliefs I discard that the more I see were and are there in others areas in a more finite way of how they still filter into areas or parts of my life or relationships. Being aware and honest with this, learning to observe and staying with my body have all been great supports to letting the rot go and building on the truth.

  191. A beautiful reflection and appreciation of what Universal Medicine, The Benhayons and all the practitioners are bringing to this world of ours with a responsibility and authority that is carried within us all. The appreciation of ourselves from these reflections allows us to treasure ourselves deeply also and truly move with all we are in the fullness and knowing of our own universality and essence.

  192. This is a beautiful blog to re-read (several times now!), offering a deep insight and clarity into the Law of Reflection. Nine years ago, pre-Universal Medicine, I would not have believed how thick the consciousness is that binds us into the illusion that has been lived over and over. Only with consistent reflections from Serge Benhayon, his family and Universal Medicine Practitioners has it been possible to be aware of this illusion and make different choices to return to the truth of the multi-dimensional beings we are.

    1. Extremely powerful – I am sure that we can not even understand the detail is immense support that all this truly offers as I feel there is much that supportively takes place without us even truly understanding the enormity of it. But even with that I fully appreciate all I do understand.

  193. It is the quality of our movement that is supporting us to make the choices in life. Therefore to be aware of the way we move through life is important and to have such amazing people that reflect this way of life is an enormous blessing to humanity.

    1. I agree Nico, the way we live through life is what sets us up to be either prepared to respond to a situation or already on the trajectory of reaction

      1. Life for many is simply one constant reaction to the fact that we are acting as if we are separate from God. Acting as if we are separate to God is a the base of all reaction. When we stop acting as if we are not united with God then reaction naturally disappears, we and God become one.

      1. Being aware of this truth, that may sound so simple or even too simple, the way we move could be the greatest gift we present to the world, nature and all people that live in it.

    2. Very true, at the moment most emphasis is placed on the important things we do like work, write… basically do something that we don’t take not of how we move in between these things we do. Walking slouched or walking up right and with a spring in your step can totally make the difference between how we feel at the end of the day. I noticed this today how easy it is to not be present whilst walking and how if I am not present I walk much more heavy and get tired from that.

      1. That is true Lieke, when we move in presence we revitalise and confirm who we are and even deepen that connection with our body because we are are in full appreciation of that what we are and our body really loves that. Otherwise that revitalisation will not be there, our walk would be more a draining of energy instead.

  194. With each session I have had with any one of the Universal Medicine practitioners, there has been the possibility for evolution, always my choice what to do about it, and regardless of the outcome, always presented. It is my responsibility to evolve, there is support always available, but only I can be the one to change me.

    1. And this is the beauty of the esoteric healing modalities. The practitioners are their to support the client to self heal. Full energetic responsibility.

  195. Johanna, I completely agree with you. I am living something that I did not consider was even possible.

  196. Reading this has deepened my awareness and appreciation of the power of reflection over the last few weeks to the point that I cannot ignore what a responsibility I have to consider what I am reflecting to the world – am I confirming we are all Sons of God or attempting to diminish this truth?

  197. ‘Our movements have the power to reflect our multidimensionality and the grand intelligence we are all from.’ Wow – this is huge – its all in our movements, our flow and grace. Are we in grace as we move?

  198. When divinity, love and truth is reflected to us, as it is by Serge Benhayon, we can either align or reject the offering.

  199. What’s fascinating is that you can clean any room immaculately in the house in a rush, and it will look COMPLETELY different to cleaning it in a focussed but spacious way. It’s the same with cooking, choosing outfits and conversations; they may all have the same ingredients, but the feeling and result is completely dependent on the quality of how it’s done or worn.

  200. I would have never thought that I am actually very still. No restlessness, no drive. Simply me in my inner-heart. Without ALL the support I’ve received from so many esoteric practitioners, I would have never been where I am today. The more I accept me, the more I move with me, the more my natural authority comes to the fore. It is never too late to return to who we are!

  201. Oh Wow this is so powerful, it is through refection we learn about ourselves. I know my life has been deeply touched by Sara Williams, Natalie and Simone Benhayon, they hold themselves in a quality that reminds me that I too am divine.

  202. A beautiful account of appreciation for the modalities and their respective practitioners. The practitioners of the Universal Medicine Therapies are truly supportive in every way showing us what is needed to develop ourselves to be the reflection for others.

  203. Reconnecting to the grandness that we are is a beautiful journey of noticing every movement and gently feeling how the body responds to this. The Benhayons have shown us it is possible to live in this way and from their reflections we can learn.

  204. I have found it deeply inspiring to observe how all the Benhayon family move. It is as though there is endless time and space, and each movement is part of the next, and so natural and unselfconscious yet totally conscious in presence and being in the body. And when they go to touch something there is a seemingly endless space between their hands and the object, almost like a pause that isn’t a pause. It shows a deep reverence for the movement and deep respect for the object being touched. This is such a great and valuable reflection for all of us to feel in our own bodies.

  205. There is so much to appreciate in reflections, having this awareness assists to not take situations so personally but utilise them to learn from.

  206. Reflection is amazing – when someone speaks with absolute tenderness, as I have heard many times, we can feel our bodies respond with an exquisite tenderness, because that is what they feel in theirs and our bodies align automatically if we are open and surrendered.

  207. ‘The power of reflection is that it is a tangible living proof, which for me spoke to every particle in my body saying – this is also who you truly are.’ – because we are all equally a part of the same divinity, but because we have free will, it is our choice whether we connect with this truth and claim our divine essence, or not.

  208. More than a tome of words, a single movement made in truth can communicate the entirety of the Universe – such is the power of our reflection.

    1. Yes, a single glance or even just walking can leave a deep impression.

  209. It has just occurred to me that the reason why the TV program Play School has remained so popular over so many generations is because the presenters always do everything so consciously and with such gentleness. Children recognize it as our original nature.

  210. It is so beautiful to watch someone who is moving in the grace of who they are. It is inspiring and also very confirming that we too can do the same.

  211. Johanna, This is a very bold statement and absolutely true.
    “I have been a Student of Universal Medicine for nearly ten years and with the support of the presentations of Serge Benhayon, The Ageless Wisdom and the whole student body, I have discarded many of the ideals and beliefs that had me living a lie that kept me from who I truly am, and in-truth where I am truly from.”
    I know this to be true because I have also been a student of Universal Medicine for 10 years and like you have discarded and continue to discard the ideals and beliefs that kept me trapped feeling small and worthless. Thanks to the support of Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine I have empowered myself and taken back my life. I no longer listen to how others think and feel I should behave that’s their opinion and to be respected but they don’t know me, I know me. Serge Benhayon has always presented that we are so much more than we allow ourselves to know and be and I have discovered that what he present is correct. I am so much more than I ever imagined and this is just the start 🙂

  212. I love what you talk about here Johanna. Everything is encapsulated in our movements, in our movements we bring everything we live and that is the reflection we receive form each other. It explains how empty words are when they are not truly lived.

  213. I cannot thank the Universal Medicine Practitioners enough for the consistent love, patience and steady reflection they have shown me over the years.

  214. I have learnt so much about how to move with the body through Esoteric Yoga, my movements are becoming far more graceful than they have ever been before which feels so natural and often like I’m moving with the flow of the universe.

  215. True reflection is such a graceful way to learn from each other, reminding us of our energetic qualities and multi-faceted expression that goes way beyond our usual functional and material ambitions.

  216. Johanna I have read what you have shared several times now and with each reading I am struck by the absolute power and clarity of what you have shared as well as the power and clarity of you.

  217. Johanna reading your words ‘and in-truth where I am truly from’ really brought it home to me just how lost we have allowed ourselves to become. We see life on Earth as the be all and end all and believe that when we go up into space in a rocket ship that we are pioneering something new, when really we are simply not recognising the fact that we’ve done it all before but without the rocket ship.

  218. Our reflection is so powerful and very needed in a world that has forgotten to live and move with the awareness of the Oneness we are all truly from.

  219. There are many Practitioners in Universal Medicine that I admire and are an inspiration to many. Serge Benhayon and his family are all amazing role models and healers who continually offer so much to the World in general. How fortunate are we to have access to such learning.

  220. Feeling my body and the freedom of movement I am living is amazing and allows for my fullness as a woman to be fully expressed. This change has been reflected, supported, facilitated and nurtured by Esoteric practitioners of the healing modalities Connective Tissue, Chakra Puncture, Esoteric Yoga and Sacred Esoteric Healing. Deeply appreciated Johanna.

  221. Observing the way that Serge, Curtis and Michael Benhayon walk, as men has totally changed my perception of walking and also my own imprint of what it is to walk in connection to me.

    1. Yes. Their walk has redefined power, strength, tenderness, gentleness, sexy and what a man truly is. Just as the beautiful reflections of the Benhayon women have redefined what being a true woman is. Seeing and feeling Natalie and Simone Benhayon is something very magical and glorious. All of these reflections are simply a commitment and responsibility to movement and allowing divinity to be in every facet.

    2. Michael I love this as when I stop and reflect on my observations I’ve experienced the same, there is such presence, yet such tenderness, such lightness with such fullness of being, I don’t sense any anxiety just an absoluteness of love – and all this from a walk.

    3. Well said Michael and for me their reflection has also changed my perception and understanding of what it means to be a man. No longer the hardened protected male but an open-hearted tender being.

    4. I agree Michael, the fluidness of their movements and their presence is such a great reflection, offering so much in such simple actions.

  222. As much as scientifically based information helps us to have solid knowledge about certain aspects of life when it comes to people we all know by simply watching and feeling each other; the body is telling everything we essentially need or want to know to either trust or not. We know truth when we see/feel/meet it, even when we don´t choose to be aware of it or lace it with scepticism, ideal, beliefs etc.

  223. so true Ariana, appreciation supports us to surrender deeper into the universe

  224. It is a very exposing as well as deeply healing when we realize from another’s reflection that we are not living true to our self. I remember giving Miranda Benhayon a hug about 8 years ago and I walked away feeling how deeply connected to her divinity she was compared to how hard and protected I was. This was the beginning of a huge surrender in me to connect to my own divinity….we had not exchanged a word, this is the power of reflection.

  225. “And I know that through the way I am with the quality of my movements, that I too provide and inspire others to remember the light they are from, just as I was once inspired.” This highlights the responsibility we all equally carry in constantly being aware that every choice we make affects others having the potential to be healing or harming. I found this a tough pill to swallow at first but as we embrace this truth more so our awareness of ouselves and the quality of its movements have to be accounted for.

    1. So, true …. just as others have inspired me, I too have the exact same opportunity to inspire others through every detail that I am choosing – knowing that I am either healing or harming. With this responsibility I feel a shift in my focus from myself as an individual to everyone, knowing that every one is being affected by my every movement.

  226. The science of reflection is huge as it brings back the power that each one of us has on this earth to be a guiding light for eachother.

  227. “…. I had not witnessed in my life before attending my first Universal Medicine presentation by Serge Benhayon. I was able to feel the holding power of this reflection that I was witnessing.” I too hadn’t witnessed anyone reflecting the possibilities of how life could be lived before coming across Serge Benhayon. Serge is someone who walks their talk with energetic integrity – something I realised I had been searching for for over twenty years.

  228. It is always a great thing to do to stop and take stock of where we were and where we are now and appreciate everything we have learnt about ourselves along the way.

  229. There is so much more to life than our current paradigms promote. Universal Medicine presents us with the opportunity to live the ordinary life with true purpose, immense integrity and wisdom in consideration for the whole of humanity, and consequently dismantles the paradigms that keep us bound in a shallow, material and indulgent life. These qualities shine through the bodies of those who walk the talk, clear evidence that true vitality and joy can be lived 24/7 when truly taken to heart.

  230. I recently felt what it is to walk with the whole of me and with an authority I had not walked before, it felt amazing, simple easy and complete, yet I ask myself why do I not walk like this every day? It did not last as I allowed my movements to be less, but I have a great marker to bring my authority into all my movements and my everyday living.

  231. As a man who has taken part in a number of different exercise, yoga, fitness, sport classes, I can say that there is no-one like Beverly Carter. What I appreciate most about her, is her absolute love of our bodies and the constant celebration that she brings to her teaching. She makes me feel and deeply appreciate the gold that my body is – even if it is aching and creaking – it’s actually great fun and I always walk away from her classes with a big smile inside and outside – and a spine that feels a few inches longer!

    1. She’s a lot of fun and sees the amazingness in everyone and everything. A true joy to work with.

  232. One thing to have stuff reflected to you…another to be open to the reflections and prepared to make the changes being offered to you.

  233. In recent days I’ve felt a whole different level of appreciation in my body, this is in many ways thanks to the incredible support of the Universal Medicine practitioners, presentations and my commitment then to love, nurture and look after myself. It makes you realise what you were missing in life when you start to appreciate, the difference is vast.

    1. Very true DN. I find the more I appreciate the more I realise how much I was not appreciating all that was there and how much life in truth I was not seeing or truly being part of. And I also get to appreciate just how beautiful it is to appreciate and how there is much detail in life that is there to confirm, teach us and appreciate.

  234. I absolutely adore observing people in their movements, it is the best TV show ever. There is no need to own a TV set, or to sit for a long time to watch, it is happening every day in every place I go. It is always a special show when I travel and an equally inspiring show when I return to the place I live after travel, and most of all, even if I do not leave my house, I have the reflection of myself to look at, and by golly, that actually cannot be kept inside the house, so I am out in the world and there are so many reflections to observe, and it all works out amazing.

    1. I agree Adele. Observing life and people, taking in all the reflections around us is far better than any tv show.

  235. “I have come to have a strong understanding of how important our movements are and just what it is they are reflecting” – movements are a giveaway, the giveaway to everything about ourselves and how we are operating – healing and in order with the universality of multi-dimensionality; or not.

  236. A gorgeous appreciation Johanna, and testament to the way of life lived by the practitioners of the esoteric modalities.

  237. The word ‘Reflection’ leapt out at me today – a simple reminder that as others reflect back to us all the lessons we need to learn, we are also reflecting back to others, and by being all that we can be we are reminding them of all that they can be.

  238. I have learnt a lot from the movements of those around me – the delicateness with which we can move and touch and be with ourselves and others – the confidence, settled way we can move.

  239. When you observe the movements of Serge Benhayon, we see and feel something that is not from this plane of life but from heaven, it is the ultimate reflection of where we are going where every movement is in sync with the divinity and flow of the universe.

  240. I love to be with people with a true open heart. Could there be anything that I would appreciate more than all those people in my life that choose (true unconditional) love over protection and hardness? I’m forever deeply grateful to all those people who reflected and are reflecting that love is to be trusted. That we can let go of the pains and barriers that we’ve chosen. Thank you all!

  241. ‘I have supported myself to feel my body more deeply, deepen the presence in my movements, know the delicateness and tenderness of me and appreciate the amazing qualities I bring to life.’ This is huge. To go from hardness and lack of worth to self appreciation and love is remarkable and yet this is something Serge Benhayon and the Universal Medicine modalities have supported people with, in their hundreds!

  242. Human beings totally sell themselves short. We are more incredible then we could ever imagine and are capable of living our magnificence here on earth.

  243. It’s important to note we can get the reflection from anybody – the way a nurse might gently hold your arm, or a partner rub your back, the way you see a child walk with a lightness, bounce and joy in their steps down the street, the grace of a women in the supermarket, or how the check out person so delicately puts things through the till with such care, the honesty and realness of a farmer – the way a big huge muscly guy who works as a cleaning contractor moves things so gently and places things back with such precision and care to not disturb anyone in the room, whether they are in the room or not, or how anything has been placed – the way a dad does his child’s hair or cuddles them – these reflections are around us everywhere, in many many different people, every single day.

  244. Recently a friend shared with me how she had observed Serge Benhayon pass a notebook to his wife. A nondescript act you might think. But you’d be wrong, for what she sensed in what she saw was a deep tenderness and absolute care in his movement that in our world is very rare. It’s in this way of being loving that Serge shows us that there is nothing we can ignore or overlook – everything equally deserves our presence and attention. Thank you Johanna – I think this sort of thing is what you mean, by reflection.

  245. Like you Johanna, I have deeply benefited from the constant and glorious reflections offered to us all by Serge Benhayon, his family, the many Universal Medicine-trained practitioners I have seen (and those I haven’t) and my fellow students. What we offer each other – and humanity – is awe-inspiring.

  246. For a long time I resisted the reflections of Serge Benhayon and his family because I was still identified with being fundamentally flawed in some way. Now however, I can embrace all that they are because I know that I am equally divine.

  247. I agree Rebecca, as more and more I am feeling the power of self appreciation and that no longer do I hold the beliefs that ‘we are up ourselves, being boastful or being full of pride’, if we self appreciate. When you get to feel self appreciation and feel the impact on those around you, it is easy to see the lies around self appreciation and that they only serve to keep us from our true power.

  248. The power of true reflection from true love lived consistently in every moment as is with Serge Benhayon is deeply inspiring to feel and experience.

  249. We can never underestimate the power of reflection – and I know that it has been the powerful reflection that I have received from the many practitioners and students of the Ageless Wisdom. It also feels very beautiful to feel the movement in my body when I move with purpose and appreciation and no longer hide this from the world. The moment that triggered this awareness was to watch the movements of Serge Benhayon…….the flow and connection was something that I could not ignore and as a consequence became inspired to change.

  250. I have felt for some time now that reflection is a true form of support. No words are needed because everything is felt and seen on an energetic level.

  251. It is by witnessing and feeling the true reflection of someone who has chosen a different way to live that we are able to feel and be inspired by this same quality that is also available to all of us.

  252. When we choose to be inspired by another and make changes in our lives naturally we offer inspiration to others through the way we choose to live.

  253. Knowing how we move has ripple effects on others, leads to deeper contemplation and questions. Do we walk with God or with self, there is no middle way.

  254. “The power of reflection is that it is a tangible living proof, which for me spoke to every particle in my body saying – this is also who you truly are.” The power of reflection supersedes our intellect and reminds our bodies of who we really are, presenting a multi-dimensional living quality in a 3-D world that is for so many an instant wake up call.

  255. This really makes me appreciate that we have this physical body and we get to know the difference in quality by feeling so tangibly.

  256. There is more and more awareness about the importance of the movements and how much they show where we are at with ourselves and how they support the day to flow or not.
    A movement cannot hide anger or frustration and equally if somebody has stillness and joy in their body.

  257. It is beautiful to know that there are so many people out there today that can help us and inspire us to seek, feel and be truth and show us by the way they live themselves, the right path back to glory. There is no excuse really.

  258. We are so blessed to be supported by the wealth of Esoteric Practitioners who are available today – they have studied, practised and they live in a way that is totally ethical and we can feel from their bodies how we can be in ours.

  259. In this present time we are blessed to have that many that can reflect that who we naturally are back to us and with that do remind us of that other dimensions of life we are also part of but one day have chosen to disconnect form. Returning to this awareness is our way out of the mess we have made of our societies. While we are so diligently trying to find solutions for the problems we are facing we tend to forget to look inside. Therefore these reflections are so important as they kindly remind us of that other part of us that needs to be looked at which might lead us out of this conundrum life seems to be..

  260. “..on my journey to reconnect to the grandness within. This journey has been amazing – not always smelling of roses and at times it was very uncomfortable to feel what I had been choosing for myself, but a journey I would not trade for anything.” Hear hear Johanna. I can also say that I truly appreciate the Uni-Med practitioners who by the way they choose to live are reflecting their true essence of love and through their support I have been given the opportunity to reflect on past my choices and become more aware and gentle with my movements and how I am with others.

  261. “Appreciating Esoteric Practitioners” – is also us appreciating ourselves too by the science of reflection.

  262. Moving with myself is claiming the authority that I am. I can choose to walk contracted and pretending that I’m pretty much worthless or I can choose to walk with me, walk with the loveliness I am. Thank you for lightning up the way Serge Benhayon, all the Esoteric practitioners and all students of life! Thank you.

  263. It is gorgeous to reflect and appreciate the love and support that is available in our lives. We can focus on the hurts and issues, yet choosing to acknowledge and celebrate the grace with which we are held aligns us to a different flow. It inspires expansion and embracing what is for offer and knowing that if we live the same, others can similarly be inspired through our reflection.

  264. This morning I made a very careful choice to move with me following a short meditation and could appreciate the deep quality in my body and could feel the accumulation of past choices in my body. This is a relationship I want to constantly deepen from now on.

  265. Reflection is super powerful, it can knock out consciousnesses that words cannot. Many kids do not grow up responsibly because they are told to be a certain way by their parents but the parents are actually not living this way themselves, thus no true reflection, no true change.

  266. Without reflection we will not know who we are. Without appreciation we cannot fully claim and embody who we are. Obviously there is a science to life we ought to know; Universal Medicine is teaching that science.

    1. This is beautiful – perhaps we can say ‘reminding’ rather than ‘teaching’ – in that we all already know it. For me, this is how I know that what Serge Benhayon presents is the absolute truth – because I can feel that I already know it. Despite the game-changing revelations that he often presents, there is always a settlement in the body if I allow myself to drink it in – deeply.

  267. It is so true that our bodies do feel different by simply being around these true reflections. There is nothing to be done in these moments but feel the enormity of what is on offer.

  268. Thank you Johanna for the beautiful reminder of the huge impact our reflection can have on those around us and of the need for us to truly appreciate this.

  269. Reading this I am inspired to really feel more deeply the reflections that the Benhayon family and those aligning to love bring. I know there is so much more on offer than I’ve allowed myself feel because what they live supports me more than anything I’ve ever concsiously allowed myself to be aware of.

  270. ‘Our movements have the power to reflect our multidimensionality and the grand intelligence we are all from.’ – Beautifully said Johanna – it is quite extraordinary and almost unfathomable what our movements can contain and reflect.

  271. There is indeed so much more, I have tasted the freedom in the body when I feel the spaciousness in my cells it’s like nothing I can describe. It is so amazing to have modalities and people willing to live to the Esoteric Practitioners Association code of ethics that practise the Esoteric healing through the various forms which are so practical, like exercise. The quality we move in becomes the everything.

  272. What you share is inspiring as well as showing the importance of the responsibility we hold in reflecting our truth and therefore everyone else’s to all that we interact with. Thank you Johanna.

  273. I had a session in last year with Beverley Carter and it was amazing – totally changed my view of exercise and movement.

  274. I love how you love your truer way of being you Johanna; this reflection is very inspiring. If we live with parts of our day knowing truth, what is happening to the bits in between? They are going to be filled with something else, that does not know truth, whereas Johanna shows us a flow of her day feeling joy and connection throughout the whole day.

  275. I agree there is something magnificent about the quality one carries in their body when they live their natural authority, not hiding any parts of them and sharing their all. It is divine to see the way such people move their bodies and live.

  276. Yes, Serge Benhayon moves with absolute responsibility, knowing that the quality of his beingness in motion will ripple out ceaselessly – to me, this is what true love is, and it is beholding of everyone and everything equally.

    1. I too have come to understand this truth of this being what love is. No emotion just a holding, a responsibility, being fully one’s self – it’s a being and an allowing to just be.

  277. “Initially, witnessing the many reflections from Serge Benhayon, the whole Benhayon family, Esoteric Practitioners and the Universal Medicine student body, allowed me to feel that there was more…” it sounds like a simple thing but reflection is incredibly powerful. When someone is living proof of another way you know that the presentation is the real deal.

    1. Yes. No words can match reflection and no words can deny it either. It is the proof in the pudding so to speak.

  278. “My only answer is Reflection – reflection of movement.” This is so true, to know of something outside of what we are currently living reflection is the only way. And the reflection is not just what we see but also what we feel from the other person, as we are much more inspired by what we feel than by what we see.

    1. Indeed Lieke, that what we see can be reinterpreted in the way we want to see it and therefore our feeling is much more reliable as a compass to sail on.

    2. Every sense of our body clocks and understands reflection of movement. And every sense of ours also has a feeling aspect to them. With all of these constantly at work when we are around others we fully understand the quality in which we are being approached, spoken to, engaged in with.

  279. “Today, in my body, I live something that I could not have imagined ten years ago – as it was nowhere within my then conscious awareness.” This is a truth that applies to so many who consistently applies the Universal Medicine teachings, philosophies and therapies in our lives. The quality of life lived today outstrips any previous awareness as we grow to appreciate the immense sensitivity and vitality that lies within us when we truly begin to care for, appreciate and connect with our bodies in all we live and do.

  280. Serge Benhayon reflects the real-life embodiment of someone who lives with their Soul consistently – in every part of life and with everyone, reminding us of what is possible for all of us, reflecting a way of life lived that can then deeply inspire us to re-connect with our Soul and bring that expression back to how we live – a totally priceless reflection and one that we can all offer each other.

  281. Sensing the quality of movements can be way more powerful than words alone when it comes to inspiring each other.

  282. “I move with me”. So simple, but how many of us do this? All too often we move without any presence at all. Our focus is often on what we are doing, not how we are doing it. If we change our focus our priority becomes our quality of movement, not just getting a job done.

  283. The power of reflection to me is a most potent image. For far too long humanity has bought into the reflection that it is okay to abuse ourselves and others in whatever way we can dream up or fantasize. Without realising it we are constantly observing how others are living and adjust to fit in. But this way of life isn’t working, the skyrocketing rates of illness and disease supports the fact that something about the way we are interacting with each other isn’t right.
    As you say Johanna now for the first time in a very long time there is a different reflection on earth. Serge Benhayon and his family live a completely different way to the current way of life, from the way they walk and talk, the food they eat, how they interact with each other with such tender care. People are noticing this different way to be and it feels so right and so supportive. After all, why wouldn’t we want to live like this as it makes so much sense?

    1. The dreadful thing Mary about our self abuse is that we don’t even recognise it as abuse, in fact many times we label it as recreation, relationships or simply life.

  284. The world needs the reflection of Truth to be reminded of who we truly are. Those that make Truth their guiding light are beacons for all of humanity.

  285. Awesome Johanna, just reading you blog made me sit up and notice the way I was holding myself and my movements at the desk. Great article and you sum it up perfectly here “Our movements have the power to reflect our multidimensionality and the grand intelligence we are all from.”

  286. The power is in claiming our presence and taking responsibility for every movement, it is this way of living also reflected by the amazing practitioners and Benhayon family that holds us all as we step into our fullness. Loved this comments Johanna – ‘ Our movements have the power to reflect our multidimensionality and the grand intelligence we are all from’. Thank you.

  287. “Reflection was the only thing that started to break down the consciousness that I was holding and supported me to see/feel the hardness I was carrying.” Yes Joanna, the true reflection of another is one of the most powerful gifts we can receive, as long as we are open to recieving it.

  288. I am often humbled and inspired by the very many reflections that greet me each day. Then there are many observations of work to be done if humanity is to heal itself.

  289. ” learnt how to deepen my body awareness with the simplest of movements and how much of my body I could actually allow myself to feel.” I’ve found connective tissue to be one of the most supportive techniques for my body, in fact all the modalities are but what is amazing is having so many that you can turn to to provide the exact support for ones healing.

  290. My appreciation, for Serge, all the Benhayon family, the practitioners I see and the student body is huge for if I am with myself and not checked out, not a day goes by where I don’t learn something new to bring me back to who I truly am.

  291. ‘This is why I am forever humbled and grateful for the unique ‘qualities’ that every human being is designed to bring in life’ ….. we owe it to ourselves and to everyone else to allow our magic to shine and share it with the world as we support and inspire each other to grow and evolve.

  292. One of the quickest and easiest way we can learn is through role models and you are listing quite a few good ones here, Johanna.

  293. We very much underestimate our power of reflection, especially as adults with children around.
    It is the energetics at play that we all pick up on, and the behaviour follows from there.

  294. The question it all boils down to is are we moving with ourselves or without ourselves? The vast majority of people are moving without themselves and so those who are moving with themselves hold the key to reminding those who are not that we come from another place and it’s just that we have forgotten. Together we shall remember and re-instate Heaven on Earth. Heaven on Earth is simply a state where every-body is moving with themselves and therefore with and in God.

  295. We each have an array of unique flavours that we bring. As someone once shared with me, every single one of us brings a piece of the jigsaw puzzle back to divinity. If we don’t all bring our own unique piece the jigsaw will not be complete!

    Appreciating what we bring and what we see in others, is key to this, it’s saying yes to the movements of God within us.

  296. “Reflection – reflection of movement” – the joy and salvation of us all Johanna.

  297. Johanna, you blog is reminding me that we are all always reflecting energy to each other and for me to be aware of the quality of my reflection and that it is true to who I am.

  298. Now that I have felt what it really is like to be myself, to feel real joy and ease with being in my own skin, coming out of that is just so painful and horrifying!

  299. What I love about these practitioners is that as they speak, we can feel the tenderness with which they live and the way they honour their bodies – it truly inspires us to do the same.

  300. The power of movement has been forgotten over time so it’s truly heavenly for Serge Benhayon, his family and so many practitioners to be reintroducing this to humanity from wisdom and teaching which have never gone away.

  301. What we reflect in our movements communicate a lot more than we realise and the energetic quality of the movements in our body cannot lie. I am learning to observe people’s movements and not just relying on the words they express.

  302. It was gorgeous to have the opportunity to appreciate the reflections and precise qualities that each student of the livingness brings through their chosen modalities. Movement is the way that change occurs, not through mental activity. And it is movement that catches peoples eye and makes them realise there is another way to move and be.

  303. What an amazing line-up of true support, from some of the many individuals whose lives and work have been inspired by the livingness of love consistently reflected by Serge Benhayon and his beautiful family.

  304. 99% of our communication occurs energetically through our body well before we even open our mouths to speak. This opens up an interesting discussion on the fact of true education and parenting where what is offered by the teacher or parent must be a lived truth for them and not just an ideal or belief of how they think they should be as the lie is exposed in the movements. Essentially what you are communicating is that telling a lie is ok instead of living and obiding by the truth.

  305. We are so blessed to have the reflections of people like the Benhayons to remind us of who we are and that we can indeed return to this no matter how far we have strayed. What lies within never goes away, we simply just turn a blind eye to it or forget that it is there, and so it is a process to be reminded of this very depth that lies within and then a process to re-build our relationship with ourselves in order to return to live each and every day and moment from and with this blessing, that we all essentially are.

  306. I too appreciate immensely Serge Benhayon and the Benhayon family for reflecting that there is another way to live, another way to move that is in connection with our Soul and the Universe that we belong to. From being a teenager and playing rugby at lunch time with the boys to be in a place where I am accepting and feeling that I am actually sweet and tender as a Woman, then move with this as my basis and the sacredness that I truly Am, then the movement naturally changes to adhere to this quality.

  307. What an amazing group of people and practitioners we have at our disposal to show us the way back. We are truly blessed and there is so much to appreciate when we allow ourselves to see quite what is on offer.

  308. I love the equality of appreciating teachers and practitioners in your sharing.

  309. We are here to support and be supported. Even God does not do it on his own.

  310. I love observing people – for, in their movements, the way they carry themselves and how they are with people can tell you everything about them. I am deeply blessed to be surrounded and supported by people whose movements through their commitment to themselves and life reflect amazing grace and beauty and love.

  311. Our reflection speaks volums and carries the capacity to inspire others and ourselves beyond measure.

  312. The awareness of how we are moving our bodies can be extended to every aspect of our day, from how we stand cooking and washing up to how we walk from room to room.

  313. Life becomes very different when walking, exercising, cooking, cleaning and all activities become part of the same quality; much easier, but when we live this way it’s very exposing of how much we value our ‘time off’ and stop moments…

  314. I find that the feeling and experience of joy is a marker of truth. When I hit on something that is absolutely true then there is joy to be felt too.

  315. The greatest form of teaching is by example and the greatest masters and practitioners of this are the Benhayon family.

  316. It is one beautiful moment in life when the question is asked: surely there is more? And what is even more beautiful still, is when that question is answered by the inspiration of people through their living way. This to me is pure brotherhood.

  317. ‘I fully appreciate the reflection of all the movements that Serge Benhayon, the Esoteric Practitioners and the whole student body offer.’ Johanna, I feel the same way. My appreciation is enormous and I am deeply inspired to change my movements to reflect the same.

  318. My appreciation to all the writers of these blogs that are deeply inspiring, reconnecting, insightful, honest… that support me everytime when I am reading a blog to stop the momentum of the daily doing and check in with myself, reflect on an aspect I may not have given much focus before or returning to a quality within. And appreciation of myself for making it a point to revisit this blog site and others regarding Universal Medicine to get a reflection the everyday reality rarely offers.

    1. Alex I completely agree and would add that together we have created the illusion that we now call Life and that ‘together’ is the only way out.

  319. It’s beautiful to feel your deep appreciation of the practitioners and also yourself. The deepening of your connection with yourself is evident in your writing. It is full and has a solidness to it. Very inspiring.

  320. ”Today, in my body, I live something that I could not have imagined ten years ago – as it was nowhere within my then conscious awareness.” What a great step in appreciation and something that I am inspired to reflect on for myself, when I look back at pre Universal Medicine times to today. Wow I am blown away by the level of quality in my life and at the same time feel a deep sense of responsibility to live and reflect this for others who, as I once was, had no where to turn for how life can be lived.

  321. The quality of movement is a powerful medicine, bringing us home to our bodies, our truth and our incredible sensitivity and grace. Serge Benhayon has re-connected us with our innate power not from preaching to us, but from reflecting his own humble grace in the quality of his every movement, a quality that our bodies respond to and one that is enhanced by all the modalities and practitioners listed. Deeply, honestly and awesomely life changing.

  322. As I discard the lies I have been living thinking they were who I am more lies are being exposed to address and let go of… a path of unfolding towards being and living the love I am.

    1. And the more we drop those lies or items that we took on, the more our true nature comes out and the big surprise is how wonderful this true nature is that is always there, effortlessly.

  323. Appreciating here how much is available to us now, to support and live The Way we know to be true.

    1. Absolutely, I especially love the reflections that nature offers us, it can be something as simple as watching a falling leaf, the graceful, playfulness as it twirls around before finding it’s place to rest.

  324. When we fully appreciate and do surrender to the grandness we are from which is reflected to us by the people you describe like Serge Benhayon, the Benhayon family, the Universal Medicine Practitioners and the many students, will not only change our own lives dramatically, but all of our societies and the way how we live together as humanity will change to the same extremes too.

  325. The interesting realisation about ‘being oneself’ being all in our movement(s) and the quality of that movement as the natural flow and suppleness of harmony our bodies, is so simple and yet so many of us, myself included until becoming aware, move around the place unaware of the effect our bodily movement is having on us. The applied science of energy is the beauty of our whole being in movement.

    1. All we have to do is be all of us all of the time and everything else takes care of itself.

      1. Very true Andrew, yet – Sometimes being us is hidden or under a pile of things we think are us or have accepted life to be.

    2. It’s like we have made life so busy and complicated that doing the most simple thing as being with our movements can seem like it takes a lot of effort and needs focus. I surely felt this when I started to introduce being more present with my movements.

  326. Today I took a moment to reflect on what a few students of the Universal Medicine student body offered me in way of reflection. I felt a love and warmth, an openness and acceptance of life and the support that is always on offer, a knowing of this support in constant action and a willingness to surrender to this divinity that they choose to walk in. All this and more was felt just in a simple ordinary sharing of daily activity. From this I can no longer pretend reflection is not immensely powerful and it is to be appreciated when I do not ignore or dismiss what is so powerfully being presented.

    1. A gorgeous thing to do – stop and take stock of what has been reflected and appreciated. At times I also find that I have taken the choices and reflections of other students for granted and I am very quickly reminded to appreciate from how things can play out in my day or week. For example if I need to see a professional outside the student body, although I appreciate them and can feel their essence I am also at times quickly reminded of the true tender, gentle and responsible quality that esoteric practitioners and the student body share and take in life, in their sessions, in their work and in all of life. My body now sees and feels the true quality it deserves. And on the flip side when I feel this quality is not there with others then I know that it is me that can bring it.

  327. A beautiful reminder to appreciate all we are offered through the Esoteric Practitioners at Universal Medicine who truly are inspirational! Thank you Johanna for sharing with us all.

  328. Your blog demonstrates how reflection is offering a point of learning about ourselves rather than comparison and from this, it offers evolution to one another.

    1. Something I have found is that it is not words which have helped me but rather the quality of energy and movement that I have felt from others letting me know that I too am the same without actually saying anything. For me this beholding energy is the most loving support we can give another.

  329. As was mentioned above, true reflection has a huge impact because we get to feel what’s possible, not just a talk being talked, but also being walked. We’re so skeptical about people because often we hear one thing and see another, and that’s not supportive for us to trust in one another.

  330. For me to think about, or imagine how my life would be if I had not met Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine I dread to think. How I lived then and how I do now is two different worlds on the one same world.

  331. Before I had any understanding about reflection I was often in total reaction, and with the True Reflections that are always there from the Universal Medicine Students, I am starting to be honest with the way I am with others. When we are open and feel what a True Reflection is, it becomes a miracle as we start to see all are our equal brothers, which then takes away any judgement or comparison. My first reaction was when I got a reflection of the unloving energy I was in, and this has shown me that when we see a true master of life who shares the qualities of The Way of The Livingness, as does Serge Benhayon, that my energy needed to be exposed as the energy was only hurting me and anyone who was not discerning enough.

  332. ‘My only answer is Reflection – reflection of movement.’ Nice! Beautifully said and beautifully helped me to stop and appreciate this has been exactly the same for me where Universal Medicine and Esoteric Practitioners have consistently reflected to me another way to live and be. I love the sound out of appreciation you have given to Esoteric Practitioners that have supported you along the way and Absolutely may the ripple of soul-full reflections and healing forever continue and expand ✨

  333. I wouldn´t be where I am today and live the rich life I live without the authentic and trustworthy reflection of those who have shown the way of how to live a truthful, loving life in a world that is still lacking the qualities and values we all know to be true, divine and our born right.

  334. One thing I find important to watch out for is that we do not give our power aware to practitioners. This can be and is done by many.

  335. Wow there is so much potential for what movements can truly heal our bodies. This is so huge and I love your sharing of all the many ways in which we can be supported to truly move.

  336. ‘a journey I would not trade for anything’ – I wholeheartedly agree and the opportunity to reflect back a few years and consider my relationship with myself then and now simply presents me with wowzers and appreciation!

  337. I can not recommend programs with Beverley Carter highly enough. She is a truly caring and dedicated professional who supports your entire being and not just your body.

  338. The amazing thing about movement is that our movements are not just comprised of physical movements but they are also intrinsically our inner movements – the energy within our body.

  339. This is the great value we receive from the reflection of the movement of Serge Benhayon, his family and Esoteric Practitioners, that the body is a whole intelligence, and that the energy of the movement within it that is magnified as we move, comes first. In sessions with all the above practitioners you mention, Johanna, I have experienced how to feel this in my own body, choosing the quality of energy I want to move me.

  340. I assume all this was learnt mostly through online programs too – it is amazing how accessible these practitioners are, and how deeply connected to you they can feel even through an online platform.

  341. Just reflecting on the title ‘ I move with me’ is such a powerful statement when we are aware of the energetic truth of that statement, to move with you is not quite correct as when aligned to God there is no longer the you or me or I there is simply the alignment to God and the universe. It goes to highlight for myself that I very rarely walk with God but are very much still caught in the I, me, You. Thank god for those who do walk and move in true harmony.

    1. ‘Thank god for those who do walk and move in true harmony.’ I echo this statement Vanessa because without those who have moved and do move in true harmony I wouldn’t have been inspired to make different choices or have been open to becoming more aware.

  342. This totally kicks comparison to the curb when we can consider that actually another person being all of who they are can inspire us to be greater.

    1. Absolutely Rebecca, how can we be jealous or compare ourselves to another when we surrender to being inspired by another who has and is choosing love? So does that mean when we feel jealous or compare ourselves to another that we have felt the inspiration but choose to ignore and override it creating disharmony within our body?

      1. Very possible Caroline – it really brings us back to our own choices and responsibility in life, how we choose to react or respond to a situation.

  343. The ripple of reflection is ever widening and as I embody what has been reflected to me so the movement of the ripples continue and I feel the joy of the responsibility of what is there to be shared.

  344. I can feel the enormous commitment and dedication to live who you truly are. I love to feel the choices that you’re making and have made to come back to live the love that you are. That feels so real, so true and so inspiring! I am learning from your experiences that it is okay to learn, that perfectionism isn’t needed. Thank you.

  345. I have been incredibly inspired by the reflection of others. Just watching Serge Benhayon walk and feeling his powerful emanation supports more than I can know.

  346. True reflection can offer true education because it is about walking your talk, living your talk.

  347. Whenever we feel these reflections from others Johanna, it is confirmation for us to know the truth of where we are from and inspire others with our reflection as well. There is a spark of God in us all.

    1. Beautiful expressed Gill, and with our spark we have the ability to inspire everyone we meet to also share and shine their spark until our entire world is sparkling with God’s light.

  348. There is no end to the grandness of who we are and where we come from, so reflection is an essential part of life together as we return to this glory.

  349. What stands out as well for me is just how much I am with myself, feeling my body and not caught up in thoughts all the time. this quality is also something I’ve been with the support of the healing sessions and love, care of the practitioners that I’ve seen. I too however also am starting to feel the role I play at work and how I am a practitioner by reflection to all others.

  350. We should definitely have resources, rhythms and programs that we can go to which support us in all the ways you’ve mentioned, with fitness, health, vitality and more. Even just committing to something like this every morning for a few minutes, or one night a week can bring enormous consistency into our lives, and enhance our dedication to looking after ourselves.

  351. Focusing on our movements throughout the day makes such a huge difference to how we feel not only during the day but also the next day.

  352. If only one person was showing us a way to move, you could dismiss it as just another fad. But, you cannot ignore the gowning numbers of individuals globally with programs that are different but have the same destination for us. There is now a light rain falling on the pond we are living in and the ripples are many.

  353. It amazing to know we have such reflections walking the planet so at least we can make a true start at getting back to the intelligence we are really from.

  354. “The power of reflection is that it is a tangible living proof, which for me spoke to every particle in my body saying – this is also who you truly are.” This beautiful and very true when our body speaks and we are willing to listen it is absolutely glorious to feel that we too can be the reflection that is offered, and as someone who never felt they were never enough what ever they did it is so powerful to feel …I don’t need to do anything, or strive to be anything, just honour the reflection offered.

  355. This is the best way to be inspired. Words can inspire, but movement and quality of movement are tangible, and it is something our bodies can feel and recognise. When someone is moving with gentleness it makes any roughness we are moving in stand out a mile. A great way to learn and grow and change..

  356. Johanna, a beautiful blog and reminder of the potential we have to inspire others when we walk with grace in our grand and divine bodies.

  357. We all have our own unique strengths and weaknesses and it is through the power of refection that we can learn from each other and refine those areas where we are not as strong as we continue on our journey of evolution, shedding what doesn’t belong and no longer supports us in favour of making more space for the essence of who we truly are.

  358. ‘Today, in my body, I live something that I could not have imagined ten years ago – as it was nowhere within my then conscious awareness.’ – I love how you are bringing awareness to this, Johanna. I can very much say the same – if I reflect back on my life as it was about 9 years ago, I was a mere shadow of how I feel in myself today. What is so extra-ordinary and magnificent is that, like you, I would not have been able to comprehend where I am today as I was so shackled and blinkered with false ideals and beliefs. This change in something I treasure enormously and it is very beautiful to be able to share, through the power of reflection, so that others may also be inspired to know that they are also a part of the same divinity I feel within.

  359. I love a true refection as it always showed me the way forward even if these reflections are sometimes very exposing and not very pleasant. What I do not like is if people know things better and try to convince me.

  360. Every single human being is unique and offers a unique reflection to the world. That is why we must all play our part, and not hold back what we are here to bring as we need each others reflections to inspire and challenge us to support our evolution.

    1. ‘Every single human being is unique and offers a unique reflection to the world’ Thank you Sarah, I am constantly moved and inspired by the reflections of other people. Each one finely constellated so we learn from each other.

  361. What I am getting to feel from this powerful article is that the most instrumental thing that we can do to support another back into the arms of God is to simply reflect the God that we all are. And what this, then, supports me to look at is all the situations where I am still looking to control the way other people behave. What happens in those moments is that I stop reflecting God and so then both me and the other person are left in No Man’s Land.

  362. It is great to see a full list of practitioners in healing bodily practices. The science of reflection has always inspired me. The answers are always there in front of us through another, nature and objects. It just goes to show hiding away in isolation is not the key compared to being out-there with others receiving the reflection of truth.

  363. Johanna, the stillness connected to and the way you live are both reflected in what you are sharing here, an amazing offering of what is possible when we live our lives with connection with ourselves, and with the support of the dedicated practitioners you have mentioned here.

  364. “This journey has been amazing – not always smelling of roses and at times it was very uncomfortable to feel what I had been choosing for myself, but a journey I would not trade for anything: – absolutely Johanna, through the very uncomfortable at times honesty, we arrive at the doorsteps of truth.

  365. Gorgeous Rebecca. I do wonder why we have even fallen for not thinking it’s ok to move in our tenderness and sacredness when it the most delicious thing. Why we think we have to be something we are not is quite a big societal lie that has been fed to us as if it’s a criteria for being in a human body. Yet the human body can move from our inner essence and do exactly the same tasks in family, work and with friends in a far truer and supportive way.

  366. And I’m still going with feeling impositions that are not me, things I’ve taken on, ideals or beliefs that I’ve lived. However the grandness is far more powerful and within my first meeting of seeing and feeling this quality of reflection my life changed and I realised I could not continue what I was living. Very powerful. We are always deepening and by that fact always discarding too. I am constantly amazed at how true quality turns one’s life around so quickly. Maybe someone has spent 40 years building up walls and protection and living in mental ideals and beliefs but when our heart is brought into the equation there is an instant turn around that can be lived in a very small fraction of the time compared to how long the lies had been lived for.

  367. Yes sometimes I too have found it very uncomfortable to feel what I have been choosing. I am appreciating reflections that show me the love that is possible to live in a world that seeks and creates complication; and reflections of this complication that I see erodes lives and potential for true connection between one another. Both allow me to reflect and feel what I have been choosing so I have the choice to make choices more consciously.

  368. The reflections we receive from people we meet can support us to learn, evolve and expand but if we react to these reflections then it does the opposite but only by our own choosing. When we embrace everyone’s reflections lovingly, this is when magic happens.

  369. Last Sunday, Serge Benhayon was walking around the room to demonstrate movement to the group. He looked at such ease with himself it was just inspirational to watch and know that one day I too will walk in that same ease.

  370. ‘ I know that through the way I am with the quality of my movements, that I too provide and inspire others to remember the light they are from, just as I was once inspired.’ We all have the power to inspire others and we don’t need to give a stirring speech, we can simply walk into a room in our absolute fullness, and everyone will feel it. I have watched Serge Benhayon walk into a room – he enters quietly, no fanfare, no imposition, just an absolute stillness and confidence in knowing who he is and what he brings. I find him and all the Universal Medicine practitioners inspiring.

  371. Thank God for the reflections that are consistently offered by Serge Benhayon, his family, Practitioner’s and Students of Universal Medicine. These reflections are like clear water, constantly showing us that there is another way to live, a truth that we already know within. This is the inspiration that pulls me back over and over again to re-align to something far greater, rather than the previous disconnection with myself and God.
    “Over the years these reflections have continued to inspire me and also expose little pockets that do not belong with the grandness of who I am”.

  372. Without reflection we cannot know ourselves. It is a beautiful science, a law by which we consistently deepen our awareness of who we are and by doing so we develop the movement of that awareness, ie we live it in daily life in interaction with everyone else, thus the unavoidable ripple effect. It is part of all of us working together as one.

  373. Allowing ourselves to be inspired by people around us is the greatest gift we can give ourselves. There’s much to observe and learn from others. As they are reminding us of qualities / movements that we also hold, but might have forgotten to connect to. I love the power of appreciation that is so clearly emanating from this gorgeous, gorgeous blog!

    1. Indeed, Floris and it is a gift that we must choose for ourselves as the choice is equally there to choose the opposite, which is to resist the reflection of divinity and go into comparison and jealousy. The choice is ours to make.

      1. To be honest enough to see that we do have a choice, we’re to admit that we’re not making loving choices all of the time. There’s nothing ‘wrong’ with comparison and jealousy, but it is a sign that there’s something inside of us that we’re not truly appreciating. The choice is indeed ours!

  374. What you shared here is great Johanna, we all are bringing something else to the world and it is all just as needed.

    1. When we appreciate what others bring we are able to appreciate ourselves and when we appreciate ourselves we are able to appreciate what others bring, or is it the other way around?

    2. Absolutely Leike. Everyone of us is a divine and unique spark of God, and we all bring something to the world that needs to be reflected to another, which is the complete opposite to the idea that we are unworthy as there is always someone, somewhere who needs to have our unique reflection.

  375. Yes reflection is very powerful. At a recent presentation by Serge Benhayon I could see how his particles were not contained to his body and were one with the Universe. This reflection inspires me to be the multi dimensional being that I am.

  376. Reflecting on where we started from and where we are now in how we feel in our bodies is such a great thing to do. So much to appreciate!

    1. I agree. I was talking to my children the other day about what it was like to be me before I came to work with Universal Medicine and it was extraordinary to remember the chaos and turmoil I lived inside as my everyday back then… a huge amount of appreciation for my love of life now.

  377. Thanks, Johanna. It is important to stop and appreciate everything we have been given, and how much inspiration has radiated out to thousands of lives, through the livingness of truth and love as embodied in full by Serge Benhayon.

    1. I find as soon as I do not appreciate what I have I take it for granted and then do not fully value it. Whether it be something I have done, the depth of love in myself or another. Appreciation is something I can do far more of!

  378. If reflection is what is occurring all of the time between one another, this shows just how much healing capacity we each have with another. We literally do either harm or heal.

  379. There is much to appreciate here about each of these practitioners and also the essence that is there for us all to bring into our chosen fields. #loverevolution

  380. The quality of our inner most heart (the esoteric) when bought to different areas unlocks a deeper understanding of life. Suddenly exercise isn’t just about toning up or getting fit, but it also feels an equally important aspect of our expression – it is part of how we nurture ourselves.

  381. A beautiful reflection was presented to me years ago in a small kitchen in the UK where several Esoteric Practitioners were sharing the space, it was beautiful to see the graceful way they moved around each other and, just as one wanted access to a drawer, or a cupboard, the person standing in front of it moved away to get somewhere else, the timing and flow was impeccable and very natural. It showed me how we don’t need to fight for our space, it is already there, and I learned that when we move in harmony with each other, the flow is naturally there too.

  382. We are all role models for each other – all the time – it’s amazing how much we pick up from each others movements and the way that we express ourselves in every aspect… And so we are either inspiring each other to be more of who we truly are or to push that down and act in a way that isn’t who we really are… The inspiration that I’ve had and continue to have from Serge Benhayon and others from Universal Medicine is something that I see in their every way, without perfection but with a strong consistency and authenticity that is deeply inspiring to see.

  383. Johanna, I love how you are able to name the different reflections that each person brought to you. Too often in life we do not let ourselves know how much we know and also how much we appreciate people and what they bring to us. A very inspiring blog.

  384. The light and Love in your reflection and appreciation is deeply moving to feel Johanna. I too have found the power of reflection in my own healing to be extraordinarily powerful. At times I have rejected it by comparing myself to the reflection being offered and feeling less, but when I appreciate the reflection offered I feel equal and inspired, leaving myself free to be absolutely honest witn myself and make any changes I feel would support me to continue to evolve.

  385. I agree with you totally when you say “Today, in my body, I live something that I could not have imagined ten years ago – as it was nowhere within my then conscious awareness.”
    To me it seems that we as a race of human beings are stuffed full of false ideals and beliefs that we take on from young, they stifle our true innate inner knowing and we lose ourselves in the ‘doing of life’.
    It is not until someone comes along (Serge Benhayon) who lives totally opposite to the current way of life that we get the reflection you speak of that there can be a different way to live. There is no coercion or brain washing involved, just people waking up to the possibility of living a more simple yet enjoyable life and this is felt in our bodies as an awakening awareness and the body starts to expand out of the suppression that ideals and belief’s have on our bodies.

  386. It’s astounding isn’t it that the truth of who we are can be “nowhere within our conscious awareness” that in itself speaks volumes about the extent to which we’ve blacked out the truth.

  387. I was recently thanking someone for the care and consideration they gave in helping me choose things for a bathroom renovation, which I was finding very overwhelming with so many options available. She was quite taken aback and commented that normally she only receives complaints and that very rarely does someone take the time to compliment her, which is a sad reflection on how we tend to treat each other. It does seem in life that we find it easier to complain that to take the time to truly appreciate anothers service. The more we appreciate ourselves, the easier it is to appreciate each other and the harder it becomes to hold back from doing so.

  388. ‘Through others I got to see there was something deeper, precious and beholding which was very natural that I was not living and connecting to.’ I had the same experience, but by seeing it in another and being willing to go there myself has turned my life around… it’s that profound.

  389. Your opening paragraph Johanna is a deeply melting reflection of its own. Thank you.

  390. Heartfelt appreciation for the ongoing ripples of reflection and the life transforming impact of all the esoteric practitioners who are dedicated to a way of life that consistently reflects movements that are true.

  391. Revisiting this again Johanna I am struck by your comment… “Today, in my body, I live something that I could not have imagined ten years ago…” It is true and my experience too that what’s possible to shift, transform and change in ourselves and our lives is something we can rarely comprehend when first coming across Universal Medicine. Little if anything else I came across prior offered anything but what turned out to be short-term solutions, never really addressing the underlying issue and certainly never restoring a sense of myself and a relationship with an innermost part of me that turned out to be so key.

  392. If it wasn’t for the support of some of the people you mention in your article (and more), I wouldn’t be choosing to live, move and think the way that I do. But perhaps more importantly, if I wasn’t open, honest and willing to look at my own reflection it wouldn’t be possible. There is much to appreciate here.

  393. Many many times over the years I have been inspired by the Esoteric Practitioners and the Student body, but one thing that stands out on several occasions is the movements, and it doesn’t have to be big gestures either, sometimes it’s the slightest things that stand out due to the lived quality.

  394. Reflections from others are priceless, being open to what anyone we meet offers us in reflection supports us to evolve, heal and express who we are.

    1. It is natural for us to be open to each other’s reflection but when we are closed and protected, it hurts us and others because it is going against what our bodies are built for, connection.

  395. “Our movements have the power to reflect our multidimensionality and the grand intelligence we are all from.” When we consider that this does not just relate to the obvious physical movements we make from our bodies, but that even the tiniest thoughts that we have are also movements, this sentence introduces a whole other level of understanding of the personal responsibility we have with regard to reflecting our multidimensionality to the world.

  396. Through movement we have our greatest reflection, words unless spoken in truth can be very misleading. I have learnt the most about myself through my body and how I move so it makes sense that our greatest reflection is in movement.

  397. Thank you Johanna, a truly beautiful piece about the power of reflection and brotherhood.

  398. I loved how you broke down what it means to be a reflection. Every move we make has a quality that can be seen and felt. A great reminder that what I feel within (the love that I am) is actually being transmitted outwardly. People may not notice or ignore that energetic transmission but it’s hard to deny that when you (or I) look into my eyes.

  399. Everyone and everything offers a reflection that can deepen our understanding of ourselves. We are part of this cycle and also offer to others what they too are open to feeling, seeing and knowing deep within them.

  400. The reflection of all the Universal Medicine students is enormous and can be very confronting when you are not making the same loving choices as others.

  401. Each time I have a session from a different esoteric practitioner I love the consistent feeling of the sameness and the subtle difference in qualities and expression of each, the care with which they place a blanket over you or an eye pillow on your eyes is equal only slightly different in feel. I love how each brings a different reflection and how everyone has something different to bring.

  402. A gorgeous blog full of appreciation, for yourself and others. I love the way you have focused on movement being the way back to your soul, and how the qulaity of this can be a reflection for others to find their way too.

  403. Johanna what you reflected is inspiring in the depth of appreciation I can feel, it makes me ponder further on what Serge has presented about reflection and how I too have made so many changes in the depth of care and love I have for myself through the reflection of Universal Medicine and the student body.

    1. Serge Benhayon’s reflection is huge; the power of what he reflects I feel will not be truly understood until many decades, even centuries into the future. He has set the standard of what one in a human body can do for the many when living from the power of the heart, inner, Soul and deep down we can feel this. When we consider the ripple effect of Serge’s movements we can see he is the teacher’s teacher for a true way and these ripples will never stop now. A massive change for society as we know it.

  404. We miss so much of life when we observe only the destination on our journey when it is all about every step we make and how it feels in our body.

  405. Well said, Ariana, and I totally agree. How I/we live now was unimaginable before.

  406. Not only have all these reflections supported this change in you Johanna, appreciation of them and of yourself clearly has too. Thank you for sharing your reflection here.

  407. I love the appreciation you show all these practitioners here, but above all the appreciation for yourself must also be huge as your dedication is the key because you are the one who has done all the work to get where you are today from where you were ten years ago.

    1. Thank you Kev. This is true. I have seemed to leave my appreciation of self to last in my journey even though I know it’s key however I am very much developing this and the more I do the more I am claiming the flavour, purpose and truth I bring to the work as an equal son of God.

    2. And I am realising that the more I appreciate myself and the transformative changes I have made in my life, the more I appreciate others and the amazing reflections they inspire me with.

  408. “The power of reflection is that it is a tangible living proof, which for me spoke to every particle in my body saying – this is also who you truly are.” Our bodies cannot fail to appreciate what is evident to see and feel in the reflection that Serge Benhayon and his family constantly reflect. The rest of it is up to our minds to accept or reject. Very glad that yours accepted Johanna.

  409. ‘The power of reflection is that it is a tangible living proof, which for me spoke to every particle in my body saying – this is also who you truly are.’ – just love this ….. the power of reflection is so powerful as what we are feeling is the livingness of another – not words shared in one moment, which may or may not be true, but millions of choices that have all resulted the person moving before us in the way that they do with their own divine quality of movement and expression.

  410. When we are inspired by the reflection of another it is felt as a movement within our own body to feel this grace as we move and thus, in turn, to inspire others offering a beautiful ripple around the world.

  411. I love the appreciation you share here for all the different reflections offered to you from the Esoteric Practitioners. ‘I actually felt different within my body when I was around these true reflections.’ – when connecting with another’s divinity, there is a knowing that we too are a part of this divinity, with our own unique flavour, and there is a pull for us to know, live and share this magnificence that we have been hiding away, like a treasured part of us is finally awakening from a very long and deep sleep.

    1. Another connecting to themself speaks to our particles and allows us to feel that and also connect. At times we may choose to appreciate and surrender to that or bring in a force to react to that but either way we have felt it and both responses acknowledge that it is true to us even if it’s not lived or embodied.

  412. It is interesting that we learn so much from reflection, even more than we are aware of. In general I can say there are two different reflections in this world. One that is true to our being in the way we should live in order to maintain a healthy and evolving life. And there is a reflection that is based on a different way, a way of living that has brought us where we are now as a society, a society that is not healthy and becoming more ill year after year. I now know what reflection I prefer and will give my full attention to.

    1. Yes me too Nico. The other simply isn’t worth it and it’s not something that I am sure any one would consciously choose for our future generations. However what people do not seem to realise is if we do not choose our innate quality then by not claiming that we are in fact letting ourselves be at the mercy of the other untrue quality being chosen for us. This is responsibility.

      1. Yes Johanna, while we think we have a freedom of choice, as of from free will, we are not aware that we actually only have two choices and not the plethora of choice we think we have. We are convinced that these all will bring us to the same end result, but this is a false understanding of the reality of human life, actually, a lie we have fallen for and a reality we all one day have to understand and accept.

  413. As a society we are so driven by the hardness of the mind that when someone moves in gentleness and grace, they stand out. We recognise that loving grace as something familiar but not in our lives… and that is where reflection truly inspires others.

    1. Sometimes this is embraced or texted to or rejected but either way each response is all a confirmation that it has been felt.

  414. Movements are indeed powerful… we can feel the energy coming towards us as people move, we feel the gentleness and delicateness of touch, and we constantly read each others body language. It is when those reflections come with no imposition and with such delicateness and grace that I am truly inspired by others – I recognise that as something I treasure in my life, and it comes to be a way I know myself to be too.

  415. Love all that you’ve shared here Johanna, and indeed – a special shout out for practitioners of Esoteric Yoga, all those you’ve named here and so many more, who are changing the face of what it means to have a relationship with our body that is in line with living the love of our soul, in our ‘everyday’, on this earth. There are today, many resources for all that can support such a true and lived connection with our own body and being.

    1. The amazing part is that we have so many modalities. It opens the doors to what people are drawn to and is a larger offering of modalities for anyone and everyone to have an access point that they can feel their essence and be inspired to live that. For example esoteric yoga may be of interest to someone as a starting point yet they may not be drawn to anything else. And that’s the beauty of the same quality being offered in many different flavours.

      1. All supporting us to reclaim and know the magnificence that you speak of Johanna. Clearly yourself, myself and so very many others are transforming our lives as a result of embracing just what is on offer here – that is, that essentially we do have the capacity within to not only heal, but to actually thrive…

  416. The power of another’s reflection… What you describe here Johanna is how potent it can be, for us to see and receive the reflections of others, most particularly where someone holds a quality – in the way they move, express, or indeed present and teach – that awakens something within us. Something that we indeed feel we know, but may not live and embody in our everyday life.
    Until coming to the work of Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine, I’d had no (conscious) idea of how powerfully our movements and the way in which we move, are essential to living as an aware human being, and one who is willing to foster a deeper relationship of love with oneself and all others. The transformations are ongoing and profound.

    1. I agree. I love your sharing especially these words ‘awakens something within us.’ it is so powerful that true movement with quality reawakens that of who we are. A blessing really and something very profound.

  417. “Our movements have the power to reflect our multidimensionality and the grand intelligence we are all from.” We have such absolute power and being aware of how this comes through in our reflections is a responsibility very worth being fully aware of.

  418. Understanding reflection and the importance of our movements brings a whole new level of responsibility to life. It is not only about what we say and what we do but HOW we move in what we do that will determine the quality of energy we are choosing.

    1. Well said, Rachael. We are all watching and being watched, feeling and being felt, so there is no escape from the responsibility of choosing quality in our movements, even behind closed doors.

    2. Movement seems to be the most impacting as we move more than we speak etc, movement in all moments and in the detail make a huge difference when done with our true quality; surrender in the body. True movement cuts the lies in society without any words spoken.

  419. It is gorgeous that through others you have been able to reconnect to the grandness within and appreciate the beauty of moving in connection to this… knowing the power and importance of reflecting this grandness and multidimensionality to others for the same to be awakened in them.

  420. And even more amazing Johanna is that much of this I assume you did long distance via online platforms for those sessions and classes! Learning the power of reflection was the key to understanding how we inspire the potential for true change in another… you are a living example of exactly that.

    1. Yes this is true Jenny. I only get to travel over east twice a year for a retreat and a workshop so 95% of this was online and through group work. Yet the power of the 5% face to face and watching others, especially Serge’s and the Benhayon’s family’s movements, actually stay with me for years after. I seem to pick up the details and quality and instantly align to that – then over time I am inspired to live it.

      1. Yes wow, and you show the power of that reflection, even when it’s only occasional… it goes to show that we know what it means to move from and with divinity, and the body can ‘align’ as you say, and begin to unravel itself to eventually move in and from the same.

  421. Reflection of other’s movements are super inspiring because it allows us to explore and learn about our own bodies and how we really feel to move. Its in these moments of reflection we can begin to reveal the truth of who we are and then choose to move in a way that reflects our own expression and as you say Johanna multi-dimensionality.

    1. Reflection is like the ‘proof is in the pudding’ as the saying goes. It is the walk that is walked and not just some talk that is not lived. It has also allowed me to appreciate just how powerful our movements are, how my movements are also a point of reflection for others even if this is not verbally confirmed I know it is happening. It’s impossible to not clock gentleness or tenderness etc in a society that is quite the opposite.

  422. Beautiful Johanna. I’ve worked with most of these practitioners and many more and they have all been an incredible support to me. I am inspired by the way you have expressed your appreciation.

  423. Wah what gorgeous appreciation Johanna, a joy to read and also a joy to hear the truth of the science of reflection in action…and the magnificence it can truly instigate and encourage to inspire a person back to their truth.

  424. Reflection is a very powerful modality in itself – reflection leaves us be and is only ever an offering, a possibility that is only a choice away; and that choice is up to us, it happens in our own time and under our own steam and is then a never-ending unfoldment of movements that deepen and nourish us.

  425. We are the many reflectors of the one light and our task is to not hold back the expression of this light/love so that all can once more reawaken if they so choose to the truth of who we are – our divinity, our Soul. Of course, our spirit is the part of us that separated from this divinity and it also has a light it likes to shine and so our task is also to ensure we are not flooding the world with this lesser form of light that comes from the part of us that has fragmented from the integrity of the Whole that is our Soul.

  426. Who knew there was so much in a simple movement. Growing up there was a focus on many things and while there was a mention of movement if it went to harsh inside the home or inside in general, everywhere else it was virtually a free reign. What I am reading here and experience is that every move I make adds or impacts to how I am or the quality I am at any point. I was never aware of my every move and how significant it is to life until Universal Medicine. Movement was just something you did to get from point A to point B and a lot of the time your focus was somewhere else when you moved. Having an awareness of what you are doing with yourself in every moment may sound like a chore and yet it makes sense, perfect sense. If ‘we’ are with every move then why would we want to be anywhere else. Movement takes in a lot more then a simple mechanical part as we are now seeing more and more.

  427. Movements speak volumes, even when no words are spoken. It is beautiful to feel the grace and appreciation you share, that has been reflected by others through life.

    1. Very true and we communicate with each other wordlessly every single day by the way we move. Basing our conversations and understandings of each other on our words alone feels like we only have half the picture. Opening up to reading movements brings so much understanding to life.

      1. Yes, words can be empty without the quality of those words being lived, and having a greater understanding of each other will only bring us closer. Being able to read beyond the facade brings richness to life and a natural response, which connects us more truly.

  428. Understanding my movements are key to a deeper connection to myself and others is profound. This reminds me to constantly be aware of the quality of my movements because they affect everything. If I move in disconnection then the quality of everything is affected and the way I interact with people will be in disharmony. When I choose to move in connection to my body I have access to divine intelligence and I am more open to deeply connecting to people.

  429. Movement is absolutely key, and I know it’s been through my body that I’ve learned to move and be more true, and many gorgeous reflections have inspired me along the way. And as that movement changes so what we feel to choose changes and there are things in my way of being now that are so natural that would not have been a few years past and all because of how I’ve changed my movements. And this I could not have done without the reflection of others showing me another way.

  430. A super wonderful reminder of the power of true reflection. There is nothing better than being inspired by another to be more of ourselves through simply observing their movements and their steadiness in the way they carry themselves.

  431. There is so much communicated by how someone lives, words can convey much when they are from a lived wisdom, but it’s how someone lives that truly inspires. That is what we really feel. We know clever or impressive words spoken without the back up of coming from someone who lives what they speak have a very short term effect as there is no true power in them – they are just empty words no matter the rah-rah. How people live is an unmistakable communication and this is essentially what we are truly looking for, to also change our own way of living. Words can’t really do that, only the inspiration of another’s living way and the words that then come from that.

  432. Each and every person has a unique expression that is an essential part of the whole, no one more or less important than another.

  433. Thank God for Universal Medicine and its practitioners – inspiring people all around the world to hold steady and shine bright in their reflections!

  434. I love and appreciate all the reflections that I have had from the students of The Way of The Livingness and the Esoteric Practitioners and to be honest, there was a time when I found their reflection too much too handle because it rocked my world and all the lies and illusions that I was stuck in, but boy oh boy am I glad they rocked it and I worked through my resistance because from their reflection I have been able to heal and change so much so like you, I shine and reflect to others today. Thing is, we are all, always reflecting, but what I was reflecting 10 years ago to what I am reflecting today is where I have to celebrate, because the reality is, we either heal or harm so there is no half way.

  435. We are never not reflecting to others. Many reflections in life I find challenging but knowing beautiful reflection Serge Benhayon reflect and others supports me to live with love and when I feel challenged I know love is always there to choose.

  436. It’s great to feel how much you appreciate the people in your life that have shown you there is another way. The old saying ‘action speaks louder than words,’ is very true.

  437. Wow what a package. i love how you have explored all these different programs and how they have supported you to truly deepen the relationship with movement. There were some of these I did not know about so thank you so much for sharing.

  438. How important true reflections are. for all of our unfolding back to truth in movement.

  439. Years ago at a sales seminar it was taught that body language said more than the spoken word, the way someone moves even before they speak can tell you if they are receptive to you or not. And I feel that Serge Benhayon has taken this to a deeper awareness of life going on around us if we care to become more aware. I was in a room of quite a few people recently and there was one person who by their body language was telling me that they were in defense and when they spoke they were defensive to the point of rudeness. After everyone had left the room the manager apologized but it was okay because I had read what was in front of me and wasn’t the least bit offended because I had read the energy at play. Becoming more aware is fantastic because like having a secret weapon you just observe everything too me it’s a bit like being a scientist of life. I wish they had taught this in school.

  440. Our community is rich in resource, and should be appreciated as you have.

    1. Yes Michael, it is an incredibly rich resource where we have access to so much wisdom and support, as we all do if we so choose.

  441. What an amazing ten years Johanna, coming back to who you are by being inspired and now you inspire others to do the same all by reflecting an inner quality that is in us all and to appreciate the movements that come from this quality.

  442. ‘I have supported myself to feel my body more deeply, deepen the presence in my movements, know the delicateness and tenderness of me and appreciate the amazing qualities I bring to life.’ I have also come to know the delicateness, tenderness and preciousness of me through my association with Universal Medicine and it’s practitioners and the Benhayon family. I have felt a grace and a flow in my movements as never before. I do not move this way consistently but because I have that marker in my body I can return to it and build on it in daily life.

  443. “And so the ripple of Reflection continues…” – every one of us plays a role in reflection, and every moment counts whether we realise this or not, whether we are aware of this or not. Hence the quality of our reflection is the key to supporting ourselves and those around us.

  444. “Our movements have the power to reflect our multidimensionality and the grand intelligence we are all from.” – Our movements are key in our development as beings, and it is the quality of the movement that matters the most.

  445. The POWER of Reflection. As without the truth lived or in reflection – we will not change as we are so deep in the mess we have created. Never to judge , but we can only see and hopefully all attest, that it has not been working. We need a change. And that starts within yourself first. And so you will reflect what you live. So life that which you truly want in life to be equally for others.

  446. From when we are little there is so much attention on our verbal expression and what we can ‘do’ with our bodies but for many there is no focus or awareness on our movements. Meeting Serge Benhayon and all of the Benhayon family and Esoteric Practitioners over nearly 10years movement is what has inspired and really helped me to know what the soul looks and feels like embodied.

  447. It is amazing to read a blog that attributes everything to movement. Book stores across the globe are filled with self-help books that make it all about our minds and intellectual explorations – all of which only serve to make us look even more outside of ourselves – meaning we totally miss the oracle that presides inside of us.

  448. Very beautiful Johanna. I have also been deeply inspired by the movements of Serge Benhayon and especially Natalie and Michael Benhayon that there is indeed another way to live with our body that is very real and delicate and tender at the same time. I learnt that being loving and caring is cool and not soft or silly – there is huge strength in honouring the body in this way.

  449. What a beautiful reflection and appreciation can be felt on your writing Johanna. to all the practitioners and students who have supported you. It feels like you were in a cocoon 10 years ago and have now emerged as a radiantly bright butterfly.

    1. Gill – this is said so beautifully – and I agree…and in many ways is something many of us go through in life, emerging from a cocoon after a period of learning and growth.

  450. If we were all to realise and accept that it is only by reflection that we can truly inspire change, we’d let go of trying so much – in fact, no trying would be needed. Simply be and others will naturally observe – and want to be also.

    1. This is huge Katerina. “it is only by reflection that we can truly inspire change….. Simply be and others will naturally observe – and want to be also.” Without this inspiration for true fundamental change, we will remain forever just scratching the surface and not really getting anywhere.

  451. I am learning more and more how we learn from everyone, there are qualities there to behold and draw inspiration from, and so often it is unseen and unheard, it is simply a movement and a quality that shines out.

  452. I just had my first online session with Bev Carter from Its time to Shine. I was deeply touched by the quality of this session, can’t wait for the next one.

    1. I was just pondering on this yesterday. Everyone reads energy whether they are aware of it or not. It’s what causes jealousy and reaction, but also inspiration and admiration.

  453. Many years ago if someone had told me that you could be inspired and actually feel the care someone has taken when getting dressed or how they gracefully walk across the room, I would have said they were nuts, but that is exactly what has happened. Many times I have observed and felt the Benhayon’s in their movements and it is a tangible feeling, and one that I cannot deny but be inspired by.

    1. For most of us, walking from A to B is pure function. Yet Serge Benhayon and many others have inspired me to start to see that that journey is every bit as important as anything else that I do in my day. The vastness of the smallest detail is what I am slowly beginning to see.

    2. I know exactly what you mean Julie. It is worth appreciating the changes we have chosen to make. When I let go of needing to ‘get somewhere’ the biggest shifts occur. All of a sudden I feel as though a veil has lifted and everything seems clear.

  454. I have finally come to understand the healing power of reflection and to know that we have a choice when we are offered this mirror that is being held up to us; to accept it or not. Today I accept it wholeheartedly and from this acceptance I am beginning to know more about who I am and what my place is in this world. And I agree, all the wonderful practitioners that you have named in this wonderful blog are the most inspirational reflections in a world that desperately needs all the healing reflections it can get.

    1. Me too Ingrid. The amazing reflections I receive from people I meet at Universal Medicine is a blessing. It does feel like everyone we meet is holding up a mirror for us. To be open to receiving these reflections support us to learn, to be inspired, to evolve and see that we are all the same.

  455. This is a beautiful blog of appreciation, Johanna. I too have felt the deep and unwavering support of all the practitioners you mention. To realise that quality of movement is key to breaking old ideals, beliefs and ways of being that kept me trapped was a huge consciousness breaker. For me, the next step is to build and maintain this consistency of movement in my daily life…it’s very powerful!

  456. A beautiful appreciation of the quality that is available to us all through awareness and willingness to be open to there being another way. I am totally humbled by the divine reflection that is offered by all you have mentioned, and the way I honour this divinity is a choice I have in every movement and moment.

  457. What you bring to the fore here is that it is always about the whole way of living of the person that affects and or inspires us and not just the moments when they do their job.

    1. So true Esther. Reminds me of when I led what I believed to be a healthy lifestyle – but I had areas of my life that were really harming to me. It is indeed about the whole.

  458. This is beautiful Johanna , The first time I met Serge Benhayon I way also alerted to the way he moved , he moved with such grace , completely effortless and when he talked it was the same. I am now retired , but something you learn in the police, is that, the body movements reveals everything . But as you say and for me Serge Benhayon reflected everything ., Thank you,

  459. So often in life you see people copying others, trying so hard to ‘fit in’ or look like we think we should. But there is something different, another angle we could see. What you show so beautifully Johanna is how The Way of The Livingness offers us something we can all feel, and be inspired by. It’s impossible to copy or duplicate, as it only flows from genuinely connecting to the fact you are great. How cool to see that when we do just that we have such a profound ripple effect.

  460. How inspiring the reflections you bring to this blog are Johanna, and thus a reminder of every movement I make, even sitting and typing the appreciation of this blog –
    “And so the ripple of Reflection continues…”

  461. I too have been inspired beyond words by the presentations of Serge, by his family and by the Esoteric Practitioners I have gone to for sessions – we cannot underestimate the power of movement and the power of being a reflection. People notice everything and when everything about you consistently communicated love, care, respect and joy this has an amazingly inspirational impact.

  462. I am fascinated by just how interconnected these practices are. Naturally when doing one in true connection with our bodies we are equally practising the principles of all the others. Such as Sacred Movement is by its nature naturally an Esoteric Connective Tissue exercise.

    1. Indeed Joshua, I experience the same, it is all from the same origin and connects us with the delicateness and divineness of the body. And in my experience, the more I connect to these innate aspects of my body instead of the abusive behaviour I tended to live in the past, my body becomes more at ease with life and with me as it now can live what it is designed for.

  463. I love that ‘the ripple of reflection’ that is exactly the medicine that is required at this time on earth.

    1. Yes, when light reflects light the fire ignites and starts to burn the veils of illusion. It is a beautiful thing to feel the expression of truth and know it as our own.
