This podcast series focuses on the intersection of Consciousness and Self. This is our “Journey into Enlightenment.” At the core of human reality is Consciousness. Humans are self-defining creatures. We develop rule sets and stories that generate our experiences of reality. Consciousness is the state of awareness in each of us where our self-defined realities are only one of the many options in potential that could be expressed.
Each episode you will join Janet and her friends to gather in this core in Heart Centered Awareness. You will feel this state where time and space are malleable, potential is active and change in our day to day experiences can be felt in the moment. You will witness this sharing in the expansive variety of expressions of Consciousness, and as form and language in our physical and non-physical worlds. Experience new definitions in Self and join in the collective community we call Consciousness.

Time for the Infinite Being with John Ashford Jr.
Time is a sense or quality of Being in Form. It is malleable and susceptible not only to our other physical senses but also our emotional and mental constraints. Joining Janet is John Ashford, Jr., Access Consciousness facilitator. Together they will explore the premise of Time and its orientations of right now, exists always, in the realm of the Infinite Being.
John Ashford Jr. has a renaissance approach about Life and spirituality and enjoying it to the max. Growing up in Chicago, he started first in religious inquiry for several years including life abroad in France and Spain. This foundation has led him through his work for thirty years with troubled youth and their families.
As a Juvenile Court Counselor for Multnomah County in Portland Oregon, he has been part of many programs of intervention and leadership over the years. John has trained a variety of agencies in the US on how to be more effective with families affected by violence and trauma. He mediates and facilitates importand yet difficult conversations about the challenges of working and living together in Being.
He also enjoys working with Access Consciousness as a facilitator of BARS, ESB, and SOP.
His ability to sense and interact with the Spirit realm provide a framework for his broad-based energetic practices and disciplines that he enjoys in working with clients.
You may find him in his garden, cooking, keeping up his black belt in Taekwondo, or enjoying meditation. He embraces music of all kinds, the worlds of superheroes and reality bending movies, and reading poetry and philosophy.
John says, “I consider myself a facilitator of Consciousness. I’ve had lots of life experiences and formal trainings. My reality is that I’m not responsible for anyone being better. That is their personal journey! My job, if one chooses to work with me, is to facilitate change, bring magic, ask questions and challenge them to live in the moment. What else is possible when we get stuck? I like this quote of Malcom X “By any means possible.”

Infinite is the realm of the never ending. Infinite Being is the Essence that transforms and transcends in and out of being in form that always is. The Form, as Self is finite, Essence is infinite.
Time is important as a way to share common ground. It is a human observance and creation to build a sense of cohesion. It provides placement on this planet in this revolving cosmos.
Deepak Chopra has several YouTube videos on Infinite Being at his Chopra Well:
About the science of Time, consider theoretical physicist Carlo Rovelli. His recent work about time is The Order of Time. He has written several books about physics for the layman and has several YouTube excerpts.
This is from the Access Consciousness Bars Manual in regard to Time and Space: “Time and Space has to do with all the places in which you think time and space are connected and must out of necessity be tied together which eliminates the capacity to have the energy, space and consciousness which will generate your life and puts you into the matter, energy, space and time concept in order to create control.”
Goodreads has wonderful quotes about Time for us.
“Time is a created thing. To say 'I don't have time,' is like saying, 'I don't want to.”
“Time is an illusion.”
“Time isn’t precious at all, because it is an illusion. What you perceive as precious is not time but the one point that is out of time: the Now. That is precious indeed. The more you are focused on time—past and future—the more you miss the Now, the most precious thing there is.”
“It's being here now that's important. There's no past and there's no future. Time is a very misleading thing. All there is ever, is the now. We can gain experience from the past, but we can't relive it; and we can hope for the future, but we don't know if there is one.”
“About Time” from the Meditation Archive at Interlude: An Internet Retreat.

Time is one of our most powerful constructions. It tells us where we are at any one moment and in relation to where we were in other moments. It encompasses the spectrum of All that ever was and what might be. It is a clever device and keeps us in order. … See more

What does it mean to live consciously with energetic awareness in daily life? We can access the warmth, acceptance and non-judgment that is universal consciousness. We are all part of that spectrum, as individuals interconnected. There is no time, no space. Accessing the state of potential can help us to allow for new choices in our habitual feelings, behaviors and responses. Joan and I are subtle energy empaths in the field of consciousness. Join us as we talk about our individual and collective evolutions on Conscious Conversations with Joan and Janet. Explore what it would be like to change your rules and realities.
