There’s a profound truth that science has gifted us, one that echoes through the very fabric of our being: the Universe is always expanding. Every moment, every breath, every heartbeat occurs within this magnificent truth. And here’s what takes my breath away—we are not separate from this expansion. We ARE this expansion, expressing itself through human form.
When I sit with this knowing, when I truly allow it to penetrate my consciousness, I feel something shift deep within my cells. The same force that stretches galaxies across impossible distances is the very same energy that calls you toward your highest expression, your truest awakening.
Scientists tell us that the universe has been expanding for nearly 14 billion years. Space itself stretches, carrying galaxies apart like points on an inflating balloon. But this isn’t just happening “out there” in some distant cosmos—it’s happening right here, right now, in the very space you occupy.
Every atom in your body was forged in the heart of ancient stars. You are made of literal stardust, participating in the same expansion that began when the universe first opened its eyes. The calcium in your bones, the iron in your blood, the oxygen you breathe—all of it emerged from that primordial moment of infinite possibility.
But here’s where it gets truly miraculous: just as the Universe doesn’t expand into empty space but rather creates space as it grows, your consciousness doesn’t expand into a pre-existing awareness. You are creating new dimensions of consciousness with every moment of awakening.
I’ve spent decades studying the biofield, exploring how energy moves through and around our bodies, and what I’ve discovered aligns perfectly with this cosmic truth. Just as the Universe expands in all directions simultaneously, our awakening happens on every level—physical, emotional, mental, and energetic—all at once.
Think about your own journey. Can you remember moments when you suddenly saw something differently? When a pattern that had been invisible became crystal clear? When you felt yourself shift into a larger version of who you thought you were? These aren’t random events. They’re part of your natural expansion, your consciousness growing into greater dimensions of itself.
The Universe doesn’t pause its expansion to wait for us to catch up. Neither does our potential for awakening. Every experience, every challenge, every moment of joy is the universe expressing itself through you, inviting you to recognize your vastness.
We each have our own life-altering moments—those instances when something new is born within us. Maybe it was the moment you realized you were more than your thoughts, or when you felt energy moving through your body for the first time, or when you understood that love is not just an emotion but a fundamental force.
These moments aren’t accidents. They’re natural expressions of your expanding consciousness, just as natural as a star being born or a galaxy spinning into new configurations. You are not awakening despite the chaos of the world—you are awakening because expansion is your nature.
I often work with people who feel frustrated with their journey, who think they should be “further along” or worry they’re not growing fast enough. But expansion doesn’t follow our human timelines. A galaxy takes millions of years to form, yet every second of its formation is perfect and necessary.
In my work with The Energy Codes®, I’ve learned that our biofield—the electromagnetic field that surrounds and permeates our body—is constantly expanding and contracting, breathing with the rhythm of universal expansion. When we align with this natural flow, when we stop resisting the expansion that wants to happen through us, everything changes.
Your energy field isn’t separate from the cosmic web that connects all galaxies. It’s part of it. When you breathe consciously, when you move energy through your body, when you align your posture and presence, you’re participating in the same intelligent orchestration that keeps planets in orbit and flowers blooming in perfect timing.
This is why certain practices feel so powerful. Yoga, meditation, conscious breathing, energy work—these aren’t just techniques. They’re ways of harmonizing with the expanding Universe, of letting your personal energy field remember its cosmic nature.
Expansion requires courage. Just as the early Universe had to overcome tremendous forces to continue growing, your awakening asks you to move beyond the familiar, to stretch into unknown territories of yourself. This can feel uncomfortable, even frightening at times.
But consider this: if the Universe had been afraid of its own expansion, if it had tried to stay small and contained, you wouldn’t exist. The atoms that make up your body would never have formed. The Earth would never have emerged. The conditions for life, for consciousness, for love—none of it would be here.
Your willingness to keep growing, to keep awakening, to keep expanding into more of who you truly are, is not just a personal journey. It’s a cosmic imperative. Through your awakening, the universe gets to know itself more fully.
How do you know you’re expanding? Sometimes it’s obvious—those breakthrough moments when everything suddenly makes sense. But more often, it’s subtle. You might notice:
- A growing sense of connection to all life
- Increased intuition and inner knowing
- Less need to control outcomes
- Greater compassion for yourself and others
- Moments of profound peace, even in chaos
- An understanding that you are both individual and universal
These aren’t signs that you’re “special” or “advanced.” They’re natural expressions of consciousness remembering its expansive nature. You’re not becoming something new—you’re uncovering what you’ve always been.
Expansion doesn’t happen in straight lines, just as the Universe’s growth involves spirals, cycles, and patterns we’re still discovering. Your awakening follows similar spirals. You might revisit the same themes, the same challenges, the same questions—but each time at a new level, with greater capacity, deeper understanding.
This is why healing isn’t a one-time event but an ongoing expansion into wholeness. Why wisdom keeps deepening throughout our lives. Why love continues to surprise us with its endless dimensions. We’re not moving toward a fixed destination—we’re growing into ever-greater expressions of infinite possibility.
The same intelligence that coordinates the expansion of space, the formation of stars, is the intelligence that’s guiding your awakening. You don’t have to figure it all out. You don’t have to control the process. You just have to trust it.
Trust that your experiences are expanding you, even when they’re difficult. Trust that your capacity for love, wisdom, and joy is limitless. Trust that every cell in your body carries the memory of cosmic expansion and knows how to participate in the dance.
When doubt arises—and it will—remember that doubt is just consciousness expanding beyond its previous limitations. When fear appears, recognize it as energy preparing to transform into something greater. When you feel lost, know that the universe itself is your GPS, constantly recalibrating to guide you home to your true nature.
You are not a passive observer of universal expansion—you are an active participant in it. Every choice you make, every thought you think, every moment of love you express contributes to the evolution of consciousness itself.
When you choose growth over comfort, when you respond with love instead of fear, when you trust your inner wisdom over external authority, you’re not just changing your own life. You’re participating in the Universe’s expansion into greater possibilities for all beings.
This is both humbling and empowering. Humbling because it reminds us we’re part of something infinitely larger than our individual concerns.
Empowering because it reveals that our personal awakening matters on a cosmic scale.
What would change if you truly knew yourself as expanding consciousness? If you recognized that your very nature is to grow, to awaken, to discover new dimensions of your being?
You might worry less about making mistakes, knowing that even “wrong” turns are part of your expansion. You might trust your inner knowing more deeply, recognizing it as the voice of universal intelligence speaking through you. You might approach challenges with curiosity instead of resistance, wondering what new aspect of yourself wants to emerge.
You might also feel a profound sense of connection—to the stars above, to the earth below, to every being who shares this expanding Universe with you. You might realize that your awakening is not separate from others’ awakening, but part of a collective expansion of consciousness that’s happening everywhere at once.
Right now, in this moment, expansion is happening through you. Your heart is beating with the same rhythm that pulses through galaxies. Your breath is participating in the same exchange of energy that sustains all life. Your consciousness is growing into new possibilities, just as it has every moment since you were born.
The Universe doesn’t ask your permission to expand—it simply does. But it invites your conscious participation. It invites you to recognize yourself as the expanding cosmos in human form, to align with the natural flow of growth and awakening that is your birthright.
This alignment doesn’t require special techniques or years of practice. It begins with a simple recognition: you are not separate from the expanding universe. You ARE the expanding Universe, having a human experience of awakening to itself.
I want to leave you with this knowing: there is no end to your expansion. Just as the universe will continue growing for billions of years to come, your capacity for awakening is limitless. You will never reach a point where you’ve grown enough, awakened enough, expanded enough.
And this is the most beautiful truth of all. You are not on a journey toward some fixed destination called enlightenment. You are enlightenment itself, constantly discovering new dimensions of what that means.
Trust this process. Trust your expansion. Trust that every experience is serving your awakening, even when you can’t see how. The same wisdom that expands galaxies across impossible distances is expanding you into the fullest expression of who you came here to be.
The universe is always expanding—and so are you. Let yourself grow. Let yourself discover. Let yourself become the magnificent expression of cosmic consciousness that you already are.
Your awakening is not just about you. It’s the universe awakening to itself through you. And that makes you not just a participant in the cosmic dance, but one of its most beautiful expressions.
Keep expanding. The universe is counting on it.
