We are souls having a human experience, if you follow spiritual teachings at all, you have probably heard this many times in your life.
Can you even really comprehend what that means though? Really?
You are So Much More than What You Think You Are
YOU ARE A SOUL HAVING A HUMAN EXPERIENCE.
Most people will say this but not even really feel what it means. It means that this human existence you are living is only about < 1% of who you really are!!
1%. Let that sink in. All the drama in your life, all the troubles, worries, problems… LESS THAN 1%. of who the REAL YOU is.
So who are you and does any of this life matter?
First off I want to say YES this life matters!! All life matters.
You are ENERGY. Everything is energy. Even things that seem to be solid are just particles with energy in between. Your Soul is energy. When we die, we do not disappear ~ the energetic form we take changes, yes, but energy cannot disappear.
This can turn into a pretty heavy subject, but for now, I just want you to imagine what the rest of yourself might be like. The 99% that most of you are not even aware exists.
As Souls, in our purest form, we are love. One thing that every Spirit Person I have ever talked to has said. “It is different here than it is where you are experiencing”. That is not a typo. “Where you are experiencing”.
We are experiencing things from a place that gives us limited, human perspective. Everything our Soul does or feels or is, is an experience. It is not ‘good’, it is not ‘bad’ it just IS. It can feel ‘loving’, it can feel ‘fearful’. It can feel ‘uncomfortable’ (fear), or ‘pleasant’ (love), but it is just an experience.
This life you are living is not who you ARE. The people in your life are not a reflection of who you really are. Your experiences are not YOU, they are just experiences.
Mini Meditation to Connect to Your Source
Right now, I want you to try something. Close your eyes and breathe. Take in a long, slow, deep breath and hold it in for 4 seconds. Gently release the breath through your mouth. Repeat.
Focus on your breath, relax, and just feel. Expand your energy and your consciousness. Hold the intention to connect with your Higher Self, it may feel easier to do if you put your focus on your crown chakra and your connection to Source.
This is a very small exercise but will hopefully show why learning how to meditate is so important. If you can quiet your mind, you can begin to connect to your Soul.

Once you establish your Soul connection you will feel a difference.
You will still be human, with human emotions, but you will be able to feel what it is like to exist as a Soul. I don’t think any of us that are in a human body will truly be able to know exactly what it is like to be body-less and mind-less, but I can tell you from personal experience that once you get and feel that connection to your Soul your perspective of things will change.
So, you ARE a Soul having a human experience. When I do psychic readings, it is your soul I am talking to, connecting with. This is not outside of you, it is a part of you that you do not normally listen to and connect with.
(Yes, as a Medium, I do connect with Souls other than yours at times).
With practice, you can connect to your soul on your own, get your own answers. Many times the answers won’t even matter from your Soul perspective. But for the ones that do matter, remember, you are much more than you appear to be from this limited place we live in. You are a Soul, having a human experience.

One of the meditations that really made this concept real to me was one I did at a Deepak Chopra seminar. He got us to close our eyes and to just notice what we are thinking about, and then he asked a question like “okay, now ask yourself..who is observing the thoughts?” and then when we did that, it became pretty apparent that we are not our thoughts, and I can’t remember where he went from there but it was an experience where we were led to discover that we are more than just our body, our feeling or even our thoughts.
Yes, it can get pretty amazing when you realize there is so much more than what most people experience with just their minds and thoughts. Talk about going down the rabbit hole with all the quantum realities.
I really like Deepak Chopra, I have learned a lot from reading his books over the years.
This post is what you were talking about with me today Tamara!
Reading it I finally understood what u were talking about today.
I’m going to try that the breathing alone is relaxing it helps to ground myself and clear my mind.

Why do we have this human experience in the first place if we’re spiritual beings?
