* 23. Universal Needs: Cultivating Deep Connection

In this program, you’ll deepen your connection with yourself and source love, exploring how these connections help you thrive and create the relationships and physical world you desire. By assessing your current level of connection through the Lens of Consciousness, you’ll gain insight into how your feelings relate to your needs and whether your needs are influenced by fears from unconscious programming. The Creating Life through the Lens of Love program will equip you with the tools to transition from merely surviving to truly thriving and creating.

Levels of Consciousness
Not Enough (Surviving)
Living in a state of scarcity, fear, and insecurity.
Individuals at this stage are focused on meeting basic survival needs (physical and emotional safety), often feeling disconnected, isolated, or overwhelmed. Rising above this state requires a shift in energy and awareness towards more expansive possibilities.

Enough (Thriving)
Living in a state of security, satisfaction, and balance.
At this level, individuals have moved beyond mere survival and have established a stable foundation in life. The focus shifts toward personal growth, developing meaningful connections, and pursuing goals that bring a sense of accomplishment and fulfillment.

More Than Enough (Creating/Transforming)
Living in a state of abundance, creativity, and a deep sense of purpose.
At this level, individuals actively engage in transforming their lives and the lives of others. This level is marked by a strong connection to self, others, and the world, with a focus on innovation, contribution, and the manifestation of higher ideals.

To Transcend Scarcity, individuals must harmonize their energy and actions with elevated frequencies of self-connection and universal love. This refined alignment deepens relationships and interactions with the physical world and transforms life into one characterized by effortless flow and profound fulfillment.
