FEBRUARY 2014 ENERGY UPDATE

Well, this first month of 2014 has certainly lived up to the YANG Wood Horse energy; I have felt the sensation of things galloping forward in my life, and whatever could be dropped just fell behind!  No time to go back and pick it up, either (but maybe we don’t need whatever fell off back there, anyway)!

I have been guided to LET GO and LET GO and LET GO some more since the Solstice in December, as if preparing for this wild ride.  How have I been doing that?

I’ve been cleaning out the cobwebs in my mind (a very important place) through a combination of subconscious clearing programs, undergoing a physical detox, cranio-sacral work, acupuncture, massage, nutritional overhaul, tons of PEMS energy work and receiving lots of assistance from my Helping Team!  I have thrown everything I know how to do personally as well as partnered with a multitude of trusted practitioners to help me during this immense shift, and IT’S WORKING.

The result? I’ve opened up the “locks” in my cells that were keeping outdated energy wrapped up.  Outdated energy is in the form of chemical toxins, energetic baggage, old emotion, adipose tissue, old crappy self-punishing thoughts, and that is what came rushing out once the “locks” were opened.  And guess what was behind that?  STORES AND STORES of WELL-BEING.

Other outdated things that I’ve been guided to let go of…some relationships and people that aren’t positive for me, projects that seemed important at the time but are now a distraction from what’s REALLY important, and caring what others think!  Whew!  Serious house cleaning!

A little background…I’m a hanger-on.  Some folks easily let things pass through them, but I am an Empath (and a Taurus), highly sensitive, and tend to absorb as well as hang on to stuff.  My body and personality type is the kind that feels and thinks things over very deeply, tends to sit in stillness and examine things, and this is wonderful (especially for a writer)!  The shadow side of that is a kind of lethargy, where I hold things too long and then forget that I am holding them….and they become part of my being.  This becomes especially dangerous when we’re talking about old emotion, trauma and repressed memory, all of which can be spoken about from a chemical/biological/psychological point of view, and need to eventually be expressed out of the body in order for the body/mind/spirit to be healthy and free.

My struggle over the years has been how to survive in a place that doesn’t feel safe since I arrived here.  I responded to that by making a barrier between me and the outer world, using the detritus around me to organize and build a wall.  It was a brilliant strategy that kept me alive for much of my life.  That barrier built up over the years and has shown up as resistance, defensiveness, intellectual sharpness and even physically as extra fat on my body.  Again, I’m grateful for it because it kept me here….but like all things we outgrow, I can move on to something better.  I can say, “Thank you, old friend…I’ll take the reigns now.” And the wall is coming down.

What does it feel like?  At first, as the locks come undone and the old junk starts to move, it is unpleasant.  During the detox, we sometimes have “healing crisis” symptoms, and they can include pain, mood swings, negative and repetitive thought, and generally feeling like crap.  But this is the temporary state, the mud being brought to the surface, the broken bone being reset….not our favorite but a necessary part of the healing process.  The hardest part was the first week or so.  THEN…clarity, lightness, happiness and peace, a release of adipose tissue, a blissful sensation of anchors that I have been dragging behind me dropping off and FREEDOM.  Weight dropping off physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually, in all my PEMS.  WAHOOOOOOOO! 

Tornado

The timing of my detox was perfect.  The larger energy window has been ideal for the swift and effective removal of deadwood.  Like a hurricane or tornado, the Big Energy has been ready and willing to pull off the old, outdated stuff so we can be free to move forward into our most authentic life. As always, we are being supported.

For me, this is making room for new directions in work, refining my mission and efforts, streamlining and getting stronger.  New collaborations are showing up, new partnerships and new supports.  The outer universe is matching the newer, cleaner, supportive inner one.  I’M NOT IN KANSAS ANYMORE.

P.S.  I’ve been asked how I made my recent detox so incredibly successful (15 pounds released so far, along with outdated thinking, old energy pockets and toxins, changed thought patterns, clearer guidance, huge well-being, sexiness and tons of creative life force energy, all with no healing crisis symptoms)…well, it is because I know how to manage my energy.

I’ve been practicing Personal Energy Mechanics professionally since 2001, when I had a practice in downtown Asheville NC. Over the years, I have taught hundreds of folks (maybe thousands, now that I think about all of my readers over the years) about the reality of the Energy Body and de-mystified it using practical, grounded and intelligent language. I am a old school teacher, after all!

I use my Personal Energy Mechanics System (PEMS) every single day to manage my health, clarity, joy and well-being, and it keeps me on track for my work and purpose in this wonderful world. I invite you to join me and reclaim your power to work co-creatively with your divine connection! See more here!
