Letting Go – Day Twenty-One

I can’t believe we’re already at the day 21 mark. Yes, the work has been hard, but it has also been rewarding.

I’ve learned many things about myself. I have always been a hard worker. But I have also neglected myself. I put others needs before my own. Because of this I never exercised, and I’ve not been concerned with what I eat. I eat well. Meaning I don’t eat junk food. When I was diagnosed with Hashimotos I addressed that. Now I eat mostly raw foods because I can’t be bothered to take the time to cook. On occasion I take a couple hours on a Sunday to prepare a root vegetable soup (my take on minestrone without beef broth), but outside of that I don’t plan meals.

Learning about the Doshas has helped me focus a little more on meal planning. I have a clearer understanding of how food effects the body and the emotions. It’s amazing how, when we stop to look at the big picture, everything falls into place. Food is energy, we are energy. It makes sense that we want the food we put in our bodies to match the vibration of our body. After all is is the expression of the soul.

I want that expression to match my soul purpose. So in addition to what I put in my body, I’m becoming more conscientious of moving my body. Each of the exercises Brice introduced through this challenge have been a wonderful way to observe how my body reacts and responds to pain. They have given me the opportunity to use these modalities to get to know my true self. Not the self that wants to run and hide when the pain comes up. I’ve learned that self is the ego, trying to trick me, to get me to quit. My true self is the me that pushes through the pain and keeps going. It’s the self that is learning to be honest about the pain. To sit with tit and learn the lessons that are present so I can heal those old wounds.

I can’t believe we’ve been working this challenge for 21 days. The time is passing quickly. I’ve learned a lot, but I know I still have many things to learn. I guess I’ll see what the next eight days bring.

I know we’re almost there, but it’s still not to late to join the challenge. You’ll finish later, but you will learn so much. I hope you will consider joining us. It’s never too late to begin to heal.

Day Twenty – Excuses Be Gone

Another Sunday, fun-day.

Brice chose Richard Simmons “Sweatin to the Oldies” as the Sunday exercise so we could have a little fun with the exercise portion of the challenge. She also selected this modality to bring to our attention the struggles we all have, and the excuses we make to avoid addressing our pain.

Richard Simmons was born with a foot deformities. At one point in his life he was also overweight. He could have very easily used these obstacles as excuses to live in his pain. But instead, he chose to overcome his deformities, and to address the weight by creating what became a successful exercise platform.

We are two thirds of the way through the challenge. We are working through many obstacles, whether it be emotional, physical, or in come cases environmental or social. I find the social aspect to be a great challenge.

We all have a lot going on in our lives. Some have families with young children, others may be taking care of their senior parents. We have careers and many of us volunteer our time to charities. All in addition to our daily chores and “honey-do-lists”. These are all perfect reasons to set aside the self and focus on others, right?

No, wrong. At least not if we want to heal old wounds. All of these obstacles are part of “our work”. We could use the obstacles as an excuse to quit or we can overcome them and use them as a conduit to our healing.

No more excuses. I continue moving forward. As do those who are taking on the Shadow Work Challenge. We rise early in the morning, tackle the ego and set it straight. We work through whatever modality of exercise we choose each day. We meditate, take cold showers and work through our regular daily schedules.

We end our day with our journal and lights out at 10pm.

We have so much to learn in this life. Lessons we need to learn so we can move onward and upward. We have all been given a great opportunity to educate ourselves through this challenge. I hope more people will see the value in this lesson and join us in the 30 Day Shadow Work Challenge.

Working With Reiki – Day Nineteen

Self study Saturday is here again. This is a going to be a challenging post. Mostly because I’m going to say some things that certain people may not be ready to hear. Having said that, I will also say, that if you are someone who is not ready to be open to the possibility that what you have been sold as religion, may not be God’s truth, then please be respectful of those who choose to listen.

First of all, part of our Saturday self study, is dedicated to learning about Reiki. Reiki is a form of energy healing. Remember in prior posts we discussed energy, and how it can neither be created or destroyed? It can only be transformed. Reiki is the healing modality that assists in that transformation of energy to heal. The video below provides a good overview of what Reiki is.

Please notice the Bible verse at the beginning of the video.

I have experienced the healing offered through Reiki. I have experienced healing of migraine and low back pain through this modality. It can be an amazing experience. It has been far too long since my last treatment. I look forward to working with Emmie.

Continuing on. In the video Brice posted today, she talks with Steph and Emmie about the healing practice of Reiki. They also discuss the brainwashing that has taken place over the centuries. Specifically the mind control perpetrated by the Church. I’m going to let you view the video below to hear the conversation. Please don’t be too quick to discount what they say. There is a lot of truth in their conversation.

There are many things going on in the world today, evil things, that are a result of the Churches. In the months to come, much could be revealed. Things that may shock the world. So, please don’t judge your neighbor for their view point. Reserve your opinion, do your research and open your mind to the truth.

We are all on a journey to know our selves. We are all trying to figure out how to make the world a better place. We can’t do that if we’re casting stones at each other. Let us open our minds and our hearts. So that we can all discern the truth. Let’s share information and dedicate ourselves to raising the vibration of the earth, knowing that we are one people.

Divided we fall. We’ve tried that. It’s time to come together and rid the world of the wolves in sheep’s clothing.
