Beyond The Body and Mind: Returning To The Beingness Of your Soul
You are the beingness beyond body and mind
It’s easy to assume awakening means escaping the human form — rising above the body or silencing the mind. But that’s a misconception.
Your body is the vessel for experience, and your mind is the interpreter. Neither are the problem. The problem arises when we mistake either for who we are.
Think about it (or feel into it if you prefer): how many times have you felt trapped by your thoughts? How often have you judged yourself based on your appearance, your age, or physical limitations? That’s identification — not beingness. When the question slips in quietly: “If I’m not this body, and I’m not these thoughts…then who am I?”, that’s the moment that changes everything.
Your true self is the beingness that animates both body and mind. When you live from this eternal space, you stop being a human doing and start being a human being.
This moment marks the beginning of remembering what ‘s real. You start seeing the body and mind not as 'you’, but as the sacred tools your soul uses to experience life. And from that awareness, a more peaceful, powerful way of living unfolds.
The Soul: Always Present, Always You
Your Soul never left. It is the quiet awareness behind every thought, every sensation, every pulse of life.
Your Soul is the stillness that observes your mind without getting caught in it. The part that watches your body age and your thoughts wander and still remembers the eternal essence beneath.
The Soul is patient. It is loving. And it has been waiting for you to remember its presence — to let life be experienced through it rather than filtered entirely by mind or body.
When we identify only with the body or mind, life becomes tight, ruled by overthinking and comparison. When we live as the awareness behind both, we find peace no matter what life throws at us.
Living as the Beingness You Already Are
To inhabit this awareness is not to escape your human experience — it is to live more fully in it. Here are three ways to practice that daily:
Anchor Into Presence:
When life pulls you into mental chaos or emotional intensity, pause.
Ask: “Who is noticing this thought? Who is feeling this emotion?” Even a single breath of mindful awareness reconnects you with beingness. Grounding into the present moment allows your Soul to express itself through your body and mind without interference.Dialogue with Your Soul:
Your mind wants answers and control. Your Soul speaks softly, with clarity and love. Journaling is a direct line: write a question, pause, and let words flow without editing. The first words that come are often the Soul’s response — patient, steady, and true.
Honor Your Body:
Every sensation, ache, thrill, and pulse is your Soul speaking through experience. Move in ways that delight your senses. Nourish what feels depleted. Rest when you need it. Your body is the instrument through which your beingness interacts with the world — treat it as sacred, not a limitation.
The Art of True Human Being
Remember: you are not your thoughts. You are not your body. You are the beingness that experiences both, the eternal Soul inhabiting this human form.
When you live from this space, you stop chasing enlightenment and start embodying it. You stop seeking peace and begin radiating it. You stop seeking meaning and begin living it. You love more deeply, create more freely, and live with quiet confidence that can’t be broken by circumstance.
That is the art of being a true human being — fully present, fully conscious, fully alive.
“You are the beingness beyond your body and mind. When you live from that space, you are a true human being.”
The practical magic of living beyond the body and mind
When you live from your soul’s awareness:
You respond instead of reacting
Your worth stops fluctuating with your circumstances
You can hold peace even when things go sideways
Intuition flows, synchronicities increase, and fear loses its bite
The goal isn’t to escape your body and mind — it’s to realize you were never trapped there to begin with.
