EXPLORATION: How’s Your Health?

I’m writing this as I sit in a doctor’s office while my daughter sees a surgeon about having her gall bladder removed.  It’s sobering to see your loved one in pain.

So I’m thinking about the pain that so many people have, every day, because their health isn’t what they would like it to be.  Not just physical health, but also emotional health, mental health, spiritual health.  It’s so important to be healthy on all levels that just focusing on the physical doesn’t lead us to the life of our dreams.

What’s the last thing you did for your emotional health?  Are you looking at your life for keys to the blocks that you are experiencing?  Have you mined the past on your personal timeline to learn the lessons of your experiences?  Are you developing new tools for your responses so your knee-jerk reaction isn’t where you get stuck when something happens in your life?

How about your mental health?  Have you examined the tapes that play in your head for their source and to decide whether to keep them playing or to change them?  Do you know what negative thoughts are popping up and keeping you from growing into the person you were meant to be?  Are you holding yourself back from your greatness because you think you can’t be great?

And your spiritual health is most important because the beliefs you hold affect all the other levels of your being.  Your beliefs affect your thoughts which generate your emotions and, finally, present as physical health problems if you haven’t cleared them.  Oftentimes, beliefs come from our childhood or our family tree or our environment [society, teachers, churches, etc.].  They have not been generated consciously but are sourced in the unconscious mind.

What do you believe about yourself?  Might there be a belief that ‘Everyone in our family gets arthritis by the time they are 50’?  How about ‘No one from this neighborhood gets to go to college’?  These unconscious beliefs operate to restrict us whether we are aware of them or not.  Have you examined what you believe and made a conscious choice about holding onto that belief or releasing it?

At the physical level, you must choose to live in balance with all of your other levels.  Are you eating in a way that matches your beliefs about food and its sources?  Are you making physical choices based on unconscious emotions or thoughts that conflict with what is best for you?  Do you ask yourself questions about your life and its balance when something presents as out of balance?

Many people can look at stress in their life and see the imbalance that is caused there.  Too many believe that they can’t do anything about stress.  But what they are really saying is that they don’t know what to do about the stress that they can’t change.

Things happen.  We react.  Then we choose our response to the event.  That’s what life is.

And if we can’t change the things that happen, then we have to look at our reactions and our responses.  This is the first place to build up our took kit so that we can live a conscious life and choose wisely our responses to events.  This FOLLOWS doing all the other work to bring our beliefs, thoughts, emotions into balance.

When I spend a Muse Day with a client, where we have a whole day together to clear blocks and make plans, we often spend most of the day on the clearing blocks part of the agenda, checking in on the spiritual, mental and emotional levels.  Creating a plan for the actions to take in the physical plan is often the easiest and quickest part of the day because we’ve brought every thing else into balance before we start the planning.

Trying to plan without the balance brings frustration and much harder work.  Trying to deal with dis-ease without finding the source of the imbalance makes the task much more difficult, if not impossible.

Our daughter will be fine.  She’s been working through many levels of what is happening.  I’m sorry she’s going through the proverbial ‘2 by 4 to the head’ experience but haven’t we all had some of those?  We learn!

And I hope that you, too, will examine the levels of your being for where imbalances live.  Clearing those can really help you move the pain out of your life!

There is a hint of Spring around but there are still snowflakes to fall before we get to the Spring Equinox.  It’s snowing here in Colorado as I type this but we’ve had nowhere near the East Coast snow totals!  I hope everyone who is measuring their snowfall by feet is staying well and warm!

Watch this space [coming soon] about the offerings for late Winter, early Spring.  We’re almost ready to roll them out for you!  Stay tuned.

And if you haven’t seen ‘Avatar’ I strongly recommend that you catch it in 3D, preferably Imax format.  We’re planning to see it again and it’s wonderful!  Everyone seems to be talking about it and that’s a good thing.  Here in Colorado Springs we met with some other people for a lively discussion of this film.  It’s a good one to stimulate interesting discussions. I love that there are films with messages about personal development and connectedness. [That’s all I’ll say so I don’t include any ‘spoilers’!]

MUSE-INGS: Simply Be Love

How often must we hear messages about Love before we really understand them?  There are so many aspects to Love that I guess we must hear about the energy of Love over and over and over again until we embrace the concept totally.

If you listen to the news there is so much evidence of a lack of Love in our society that one wonders how to get that energy flowing, or jump started into the community.  How can one individual really ‘getting it’ have an impact?

I guess I would ask the opposite: ‘How can one individual spewing hatred have such an effect on society?’  Think about hate radio.  Think about politicians who spew hatred.  Think about those who choose to hate other groups because of _____ – fill in the blank as there are many choices here.

One individual can have a great impact when they embrace the concept of hatred so why isn’t Love more powerful?

The fact is that Love IS more powerful!  The energy of Love is the strongest in the Universe.  You were Loved into existence because the Universe wanted you to be present on Mother Earth at this moment.  Love is the attracting force at work in the Universe in every moment.  And you are a part of that Love.  You can connect to that Love by opening your heart and deciding that you are Lovable and Loving of others.  You can choose to accept all other people because they, too, have been Loved into the present moment.

The time has come for Love to be the dominating force on Planet Earth.  ‘Love your neighbor as you Love yourself’ requires that you first Love Yourself!  Love others who are like you and Love others who are different from you.  Love the children who will inherit the Planet from you and Love those who are getting ready to leave the Planet in your hands.  Love those who make choices that are different from the choices that you make.  Love because your heart is open and it is Love that spills forth from it.  Love because YOU feel better when you are holding Love energy in you than when you hold any other energy in your consciousness.

Make this a time for you to spread Love around, without an agenda, without expecting anything in return.  Simply Be Love.

BOOK LIGHTS: Richard Gerber, M.D. in “Vibrational Medicine: New Choices for Healing Ourselves”

“Manfred Clynes, a musician researching the link between music and emotions, created an entire science, called Sentics, in order to measure the elusive connection he found so intriguing.  Clynes developed a special finger transducer that could record the pattern of a fingertip’s unconscious downward pressure.  Once connected to the finger transducer, an individual being monitored would listen to certain musical pieces.  Clynes found that particular repeating patterns in fingertip pressure were triggered by various classical musical pieces.  He also discovered that these patterns were associated with certain key emotions.  Interestingly, the recorded patterns taken from transducers hooked to a variety of test subjects indicated that certain musical pieces reliably produced identical emotional patterns in many different people.  In other words, a certain emotionally evocative classical piece reliably induced the same emotion in many different listeners…Clynes’ research validated the fact that particular classical musical pieces could be repeatedly utilized to induce particular altered states of consciousness.  It is likely that bathing people entirely in the musical piece while they are lying on a sound table could be an even more powerful and evocative experience.”

Fascinating!
