Namaste and blessings
Today..., was one of those days where I was feeling deeply.
Must have been the aura of the coming full moon,beautiful bright Selena,here to enhance our emotions and maybe our weaknesses.
I had to bathe in feelings of unworthiness, loneliness and fear of the unknown.
I often go through the motions, but the more I feel them, the more I am present to them, the more I breath, the more I understand, the more I know how to work with them. Slightly easier it gets.
It requires a process of discernment, some longer then others,to then move towards a more balanced emotional state.
There is nothing wrong in feeling all the feelings deep sadness, loneliness, frustration, yearning, anger, disappointment, depression, hopelessness, rejection... And the list continues.once we are present to them then we can turn them into gold with kindness, compassion and many other ways, to alchemise the dark feelings onto better ones
A reminder to myself, when there is nothing to turn too, I turn to God(I know it sounds cliché). When I say God, is the devine in me, the power and energy that we are and have within,and the energy outside of us,.
The devine within, is so healing, a hopeful and warming feeling in the heart.
Thich Nhat Hanh the Buddhist monk, talks about the power of preyer.
I grew up with my grandmother praying every morning, chewing a piece of holy bread and drinking a tiny splash of holy water, praying before and after each meal.
There was the middle of the day prayer, a huge altar of icons of saints and angels, holy basil, dried, hanging in the corner of an icon, she had for the past 50years.
Her prayer intention was quite different, a way to show gratitude and protection but as well a way to cleanse sins and karma.
For me preyer is an internal dialog, finding humility, humbleness in front of this allmity energy that surrounds us, allowing to be part of it.
Preyer is a beautiful way to send healing and protection, all the good vibes to everyone I know, even people that I don't get along with. Especially them.
This is how amazing preyer can be. Connecting with people you would not connect otherwise.
There are so many amazing ways to heal, to move forward as a more better version of self.
Doing things that are different from what you are used to, like going on a retreat, go wild swimming, dance(biodanza, five reathms, African ) meeting truly beautiful people, enriching your inner world with mindful forest bathing, learning about trees, sitting under a tree, enjoying his precence.
That tree you sat under or the wind in the wild grassy meadow could be actually be a guide.
If we would just listen.
Much love
Blessings and namaste
