This email was sent out in July. Apparently I never puclished it on the site, but the ideas in here about stress and your power, I felt like needed to be shared. So, it will show up on the website out of date.
Monday's meditation was an acknowledgement that to know your power in today's world has something to do with your ability to manage stress. I had never made that connection before. It makes perfect sense.
We talked about light bringers and power and our humanity and divinity, knowing we have greater access to the joys of being in a body and our divine nature with these energetic openings right now.
As we dropped in, connecting to these deep parts of ourselves we were asked, how many times a day do you feel stressed?
And we were encouraged that when you feel stressed, just remind our body that there are very few actual emergencies. What you feel as an emergency is probably not.
So many of us were brought up in homes full of stress, anxiety, worry, fear, chaos and dysfunction. That stress is normal, more normal actually than not living in stress. And there are many ways to retrain the body, but a very practical way, is each and every time you feel stress, remind yourself that it is probably not an emergency. Even if it feels like one, it probably isn't. That calms the body instantly.
What a wonderful way to connect to our power, by reducing our stress level.
Wednesday evening gathering
Every week we gather for sound, community, connection, and to soften our nervous system, drop deep into our own being, and reduce stress.
It is a relatively intimate time together, more so than a Monday morning.
How many places do you go where you are served a beverage that softens your nervous system and sit with people who actually want to know how you are doing? And then you lie down (that is the activity, lying down and breathing) and get to know yourself better, gather insight into your current situation, and leave feeling a bit more loved, calm, expanded sometimes, and curious.
That is what we do here. click here to join us this week or any week in the future.
I am taking off the first week of August.
Private sessions
I love this work, especially if you have had therapy before, we ground you into your body, create safety in a way the chaotic and stressful househole you grew up in just couldn't foster.
It wasn't your parents fault, more than likely they didn't know what they were doing. It isn't your fault either, but it is your responsibility to function in a healthy way now.
And what I have learned is that physically getting into the nervous system when you do live in a safe home, can create the best change in the physiology of your body.
We can reduce pain, learn new coping skills, create a strategy in the body that stays calm in stressful situation and changes your life in the best possible way.
