11 Ways to Expand Your Consciousness

“It’s not the world that needs to change – it’s our consciousness we must raise” – Rasheed
Ogunlaru
To raise your consciousness gives you power to create a happier and fulfilling life. Its about
opening yourself to newer possibilities, reconnecting with your inner self, embracing the divine
within you and most importantly, free yourself from the pain and suffering that has been holding
you down. It is a beautiful journey towards becoming more conscious in all aspects of your life.
Heightened consciousness breaks the walls of perception, perceived reality, and false beliefs.
Here are 11 ways to raise your consciousness.
1) Find yourself
Once Allen Ginsberg said, “Follow your inner moonlight; don’t hide the madness.” To find
yourself first learn about yourself. Finding the real you is an enlightening experience; you are not
what the society has told you to be, or the titles given to you. Don’t try to be anybody else, and
live in these false illusions. Falseness is a confused loop – a temporary shelter that lowers your
consciousness.
You can’t hide there for a long period of time because there is no peace in living this way. Cut
your ties with falsehood. Being honest with yourself raises your consciousness. Don’t choose to
be a canvas, rather be the painter.
2) Observe and reflect

Have the courage to observe and reflect. Some people choose ignorance that lowers their
consciousness eventually. Internal reflection will certainly help you better understand your
thoughts, emotions, and provide clarity in your current life situation.
It is an important step towards growth. Acknowledge your problems and seek solutions.
Meditation is a good way to start the process, even for 20 minutes daily will make a difference in
your state of consciousness.
3) Be compassionate
“There is no exercise better for the heart than reaching down and lifting people up.” ― John
Holmes
Practicing compassion can be one of the single most powerful exercises for boosting your level
of consciousness. Compassion is an ability to acknowledge the emotional state of our fellow
human beings. Several studies prove that people who practice compassion experience constant
change in their brain and respond positively to stress.
Being compassionate towards yourself and others also helps you to not only forgive the other
person but also overcome your own negative thoughts or emotions.
4) Don’t hold onto your past experience or your expectations

Understand the power of now and live in the present. Get absorbed into the current moment. Let
go of the wretched feelings and negative emotions. Watch your pattern of being trapped into the
past, and then break that pattern. Start doing something that makes you happy. Looking at the
world from the window of your past is cheating on yourself. Your present is seeking you. Allow
your mind to be conscious of the present.
5) Keep your ego in check
Ego is a small portion of the whole being. Consciousness is the higher self. Scientists have
proven the fact that your consciousness never dies. Ego is like an infection to the consciousness,
a hindrance that blocks the growth of consciousness. But it’s curable. Ego doesn’t let you take
conscious decisions. Keep asking yourself – is it the real you or is it the ego that’s talking?
6) Destroy blockages
There are multiple blockages in your mind that act as an obstruction to attain a higher level of
consciousness. Being judgmental towards the self and others, your inability to forgive, having
trouble accepting the reality or past emotional blocks that has been suppressed within your
subconscious. It exists like a barrier in your mind which you have to break down. Set yourself
free from all the blockages. Break the walls. By doing so, you will cleanse the soul and your
mind will start functioning at a higher frequency.
7) Spend time alone

“The true life is not reducible to words spoken or written, not by anyone, ever. The true life takes
place when we’re alone, thinking feeling, lost in memory, dreamingly self-aware, the
submicroscopic moments.”- Don DeLillo, Point Omega
It is important to catch up with yourself. Most of us consider loneliness as a threat or an occasion

to fret in the void. Spending time with yourself allows the inner self to speak to you. Follow that
voice. It’s your inner voice talking. Go on a walk to listen to your own thoughts, give gratitude
for everything that you have in your life, listen to music, or get involved in a hobby that inspires
you.
8) Step out of your comfort zone

“Life begins at the end of your comfort zone.” – Neale Donald Walsch
Step out of your comfort zone and into the discomfort of uncertainty. You never know what it
holds for you. Get imaginative. Unravel new layers of your existence. Don’t feed your fear of
falling or making a mistake. There is a lesson behind each stumble and fall. If you don’t step out
of your comfort zone, you’ll never learn that lesson.
9) Love
“Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that
you have built against It.” – Rumi
Some say love is a drive. Some say love is a vibration. The truth of the matter is that love cannot
be labeled. It is far more sacred than these labels. Allow yourself to receive love and give love
whole-heartedly and unconditionally to yourself and others. And in that whole-heartedness, you
experience your consciousness expanding. You feel the bliss all around you.
10) Embrace nature

Connect with nature, the rustling leaves, colourful flowers, majestic trees, ever-changing clouds
and fluid water. Be grateful for the nature around you because in time spent in nature never gees
wasted. Feel a deep sense of peace and oneness within, and in that feeling lies the answers you
seek.
11) Meditation and Exercise

Meditation opens up a direct link between yourself and the higher realms of consciousness.
Simple meditation has tremendous benefits for the mind, body and soul. It can help you connect
with yourself, restore balance in your thoughts and emotions, lower stress and raise your
vibrations, brings joy and clarity.
