There are many ways to contact your higher power.  Sometimes just being with mother nature can give this inner contentment and love for being alive.  You can use your subconscious by allowing yourself to “BE” in whatever experience you are in, whatever context and whatever time.  Don’t force what is unneeded in the world at that moment for you.  JUST BE.  Take time out for reflection and spiritual contemplation.  Even sleep time and dream time can be a time for asking the higher power to take over and rearrange thoughts so that the pyramid of attention is rebuilt in sequential and healthy order.  The higher Power can be the basis of our structure, the attention does not have to be a lot but if worked it becomes the biggest rung of ones ladder.  It can rebuild thought structure, loosen the tensions, allow the freedom of holding nothing back.  The entire structure of thoughts if toxic can be rebuilt as we can be reborn.  With this one does not have to be ashamed as unconditional positive regard is a given and one is accepted.  This does not mean all behaviours are accepted and we are rescued.  To be accepted is to hold a more healthy core self,  to be worthy gives us self esteem and to have meaning is to awaken to a dawn with sunlight in our hearts.  We can bath with spiritual light with the higher power and its compassion.  This can provide the solidity that humans seek.  If having a difficult day go to the safety of this process in whatever way makes sense, meetings, meditation, relaxation, prayer, connection and love.  This solidity can provide light, and hope.  In psychological terms it can be like going into the safety and warm of the arms of a loving parent.
