Monday morning I started class by reading some astrology for inspiration as I often do. I read about Pluto playing with the new moon in Aquarius giving us a new sense of power, and how long that might take for us to notice. I feel when we are aware, and do the energy work around it, we will experience it, be aware of it, faster.
Often I have no real knowledge of these things, but I like the inspiration, so we went into meditation to learn more about what that means and how we harness this energy.
As we dropped into meditation I asked what power means in this sense? And the one word that came to my mind was agency, then the question "how much agency do you claim in your life?" then I was prompted to remind everyone that these questions aren't meant to be answered immediately by the mind, but are often meant to unfold in realization as you live your life.
Because, as that meme states that I so often share on social media, Profound change doesn't happen on your mat, it happens when you find yourself in a situation, once again, and you realize that you have a choice to do something different.
We brought the energy through the body, we worked with oxytocin to bring self love into the physical body to make the embodiment of power and agency real in us.
After class I drove home and looked at my car, which had been not working since Wednesday, I had an idea of the fastest way to fix it. When it first wasn't working I was using my brain, but then once I talked to the man in my life who would help me with it, I handed it over to him not realizing that I assumed he was smarter than me and would know how to take care of it better than me.
I still needed his help, and I am super grateful for his help, but I was also struck by how quickly I realized that I had given up my agency and how quickly I could take it back. I am also very aware that I need to continue to be open to how many other ways I am giving up my agency. And how I may take it back in other areas of my life.
This is what can happen when you come to meditation and embody the energy of the moment, consciously growing and changing becomes almost effortless sometimes.
Wednesday Evening Meditation Gathering
We might still be working with agency and power this week, but we never really know what is going to get our attention. It is always up to the conversation we have at the beginning of gathering, what people are working with already and how I can support everyone who comes.
I hope if you need support, or if you just want some focussed time within, that you find your aren't doing on your own, that you will join us.
Online registration closes at 6:00 on Tuesday evening, but reach out if you would like to join. We often have space.
Click here to join us if it is before 6 on Tuesday.
One on One Work/Play
I love that I consider this work play, and I mean no disrespect using that term. How we look at things does to some degree create the experience of it.
I always work with compassion and deep presence, and yes, often the things that come up are less than ideal or less preferred, but when the work is the breath, and you find freedom from the pain and limiting thought pattern that occurred from that pain, there is laughter, joy and a much better life that results from it.
When we look at this as play, it happens faster.
And sometimes, it isn't play. Sometimes it is presence with your pain until it dissolves. That is worthwhile too! Life and healing is a journey. It looks different for everyone. My gift is that I bring a lightness to some of the hardest things. If you are ready for that, I am here.
I offer packages of 3 sessions for $345, 6 sessions for $660 or 10 sessions for $999
10 sessions is ideal for a commitment to self. I love for these sessions to take place within 3 months of your package, but I am flexible on that. It is commitment that adds the energy that helps you create the neural pathways in the brain that actually brings change.

Women’s circle
Are you ready to take the healed feminine out into the world?
The second Sunday of every month we are having a free women's circle. This will take place at Unity of Birmingham in my space. Until it is too large for my space, then w will move it somewhere else in the building or to another location.
I invite all healers and everyone in their communities to join, to contribute all of our medicine to the women in this city, so we may remember our truth, our dignity and come back into alignment with the earth and our highest selves. May we all be less likely to give up our agency to anyone else for any reason.
Please let me know you are coming sheribagwell@me.com
Thank you so much for reading. Have a wonderful day!
Sheri
