Send us a textThe journey toward awakening isn't about denying our experiences, but seeing through them to the truth they reveal. In this profound episode of Wisdom Dialogues, Hope Johnson shares revelatory insights about how we use our bodies and what they're truly meant for.Hope begins by challenging our fundamental understanding of the body's purpose, explaining that it's meant solely for communication rather than obtaining worldly pleasure or status. This shift in perspective opens the door to examining how sexual desire and longing for special relationships actually substitute for the true union our spirits crave – union with God and the entire Sonship that transcends physical form entirely.Through personal reflections on her experiences since moving to Mexico, Hope reveals how observing patterns of desire in others helped her recognize her own seeking behaviors. She shares how purifying sexual desire led her to discover the masculine and feminine energies within spiritual practice – the masculine providing discipline and direction, the feminine offering receptivity and surrender. Both are essential on the path to awakening.Perhaps most liberating is Hope's exploration of the mind's harmlessness. Contrary to popular belief, our thoughts cannot harm us or create negative physical manifestations. The mind is 100% harmless in reality, only capable of projecting illusions. This understanding frees us from victimhood and self-blame, allowing us to recognize that in every moment we can choose to see differently and release ourselves from suffering.The conversation extends to addiction, judgment, and the power of seeing everything as helpful rather than harmful. Hope compassionately dismantles the belief that we must control our behaviors, showing how removing judgment allows natural transformation without struggle.Ready to experience true freedom? Join Hope in discovering how taking 100% responsibility for your perceptions becomes the path to liberation. Explore this wisdom-packed dialogue that will forever change how you view your mind, body, and spiritual journey.Support the show

Send us a text✨A Course In Miracles Deep Dive - Chapter 2, Section X, Paragraph 12 to Section XI, Paragraph 2, Sentence 1"Fear and The Unwatched Mind" July 30, 2025Beneath the surface of our everyday consciousness lies an unwatched mind – a realm of thoughts and beliefs that actively shapes every aspect of our experience without our awareness. In this profound exploration of A Course in Miracles Chapter 2, we discover how these unwatched thoughts become the source of all our fear.Jesus reveals a startling truth: we've been afraid of God, ourselves, Jesus, and practically everyone we know not because they're actually threatening, but because we've projected our own guilt outward. This projection is the ego's primary defense strategy – making us fear everything that could actually help us. The vulnerable, Jesus teaches, "are essentially miscreators because they misperceive creation." Our perception of weakness or threat in ourselves and others isn't reflecting reality; it's creating a distorted image based on fear.What makes this teaching revolutionary is how it reframes our understanding of the unconscious mind. Unlike Freud who viewed the unconscious as an inaccessible reservoir of hidden drives, Jesus shows us that our unconscious is simply what we've chosen not to watch. It remains active and powerful, projecting an entire world of experience, yet we persist in believing that "when we do not consciously watch our mind, it is unmindful."Most remarkable is Jesus' revelation that beneath all our ego's distortions lies the miracle level – a stratum of mind that remains untouched by error, always perfectly aligned with truth. The unwatched mind creates noise and static above this miracle level, making us afraid to sink deeper into our own awareness.By gently watching our thoughts without judgment and bringing them to the Holy Spirit for correction, we can access this miracle level. We need not fear what we discover, for our willingness to look with love dissolves the power of these hidden thoughts. As Jesus reassures us, once we've begun this journey, "the truth will not escape you entirely" – the pull of awakening becomes stronger than our resistance.What perceptions are you ready to question today? What fears might actually be invitations to look more deeply at your unwatched thoughts? Join us in this exploration of mind at its most fundamental level – where the choice to watch with holy sight transforms everything we see.Support the show

Send us a textIn this provocative and deeply spiritual exploration, Hope Johnson shatters conventional perspectives on relationships, sexuality, and pleasure. What if our sexual experiences are merely substitutes for the true ecstasy we're designed to experience within ourselves? Hope reveals how our inner masculine and feminine energies, when properly aligned, create a sustainable joy that makes external pursuits pale in comparison. She explains that bodies can never truly join—the pleasure we think we experience is merely projected by our minds. This understanding transforms sex from a sacred act to simply another illusion in our dream state, no different in essence from eating a sandwich.The conversation delves into how relationships often function as distractions from awakening. When we enter deep, entangled connections with expectations of fulfillment, we're setting ourselves up for inevitable suffering. Hope suggests that the "happy dream" may not include sexual relationships at all, but rather light, joyful connections without the burden of expectation.Drawing from A Course in Miracles, Hope explains that sexual impulses are misguided miracle impulses—attempts to join what cannot join. This doesn't mean condemning sexuality, but recognizing its true purpose in our spiritual journey. When brought to the Holy Spirit, any experience becomes a means for undoing the dream rather than reinforcing it.This wisdom challenges our core beliefs about what makes life worth living. Are we willing to question these deeply-held attachments to pleasure? Can we recognize that underneath our desires for bodily connection lies a profound yearning for the divine union that's always available within?Visit HopeJohnson.org to engage more deeply with these teachings.

Send us a text✨ ACIM Deep Dive — Chapter 2, Section X, Paragraphs 9–11 “The Real Power of the Mind” – July 23, 2025In this Deep Dive session, we explored Paragraphs 9 through 11 of Chapter 2, Section X: The Real Power of the Mind in the Complete & Annotated Edition of A Course in Miracles. Jesus emphasizes that miracle workers must guard their thoughts consistently—not just occasionally—and train their minds to think miraculously.We uncovered how true miracle working isn't simply about “feeling spiritual” or waiting for inspiration. It requires the discipline of mind that avoids miscreation and maintains awareness of thought's creative power. Jesus makes it clear: if your mind is unguarded, you can't be counted on for miracles—and He needs miracle workers He can count on.The key realization that emerged was the difference between circular miracle working—where miracles are constantly used to clean up one's own untrained mind—and true miracle working, which collapses time. The former keeps you cycling in the same dream scenarios, while the latter cuts through illusion by being truly helpful to others. This kind of miracle only happens when the mind is already clear and aligned—when the miracle isn't used to fix fear, but to extend love.Support the show

Send us a textIn today's talk, we explored how fear arises and how it is corrected according to A Course in Miracles.✨ Key points:Fear signals inner misalignment.It arises when what you want conflicts with what you do, revealing hidden will conflicts.God's Will and your true will are never separate.Strain and fear come only from believing they are. When you remember your will is one with God's, action becomes effortless.Fear comes from lack of love.The only remedy is perfect love, which is the Atonement – the recognition that separation never occurred.You cannot truly will without love.Willing without love is an ego illusion. Your real will is always aligned with love and creation.Fear of your own thoughts keeps you from recognizing your mind's true power.Only loving thoughts are real; fearful or angry thoughts have no true creative effect, though they appear to produce suffering within the dream.Acting out anger reinforces separation and suffering.Correction is not suppression, but seeing anger as a call for love, choosing a new perception.✨ Integration reflection:“Where am I still believing my will conflicts with God's Will, and what would shift if I remembered they are the same?”This section invites us to see fear not as something to fight, but as a signal to return to love and realign with truth.See all of my Offerings HereSupport the show
