Chakra Balancing Guided Meditation

We have had many requests for guided meditation. Art and I would really like to support people in doing their practice independently. However, we too see the value of a guided meditation.

I’ve placed the meditation here, in black and white, on purpose. You will be directed to visulaize the color of your chakras and this is an interesting piece of the meditation. Please feel free to ask questions or comment about your experience below.

Open Your Heart So You Can Blossom!

When the heart is not open to the experience of love, it cannot move on from there. When we are given opportunities to express our love and we do not take them, we are sending out the energy that we do not want love. Love is important because it is in the pursuit of it that we find ourselves. We can only truly love ourselves if we believe we are lovable.

Unfortunately for many this may never be a reality.

Some will not feel love in their heart. This is unfortunate, not only because love feels so good but because love does really set us free. It sets us free to make decisions, to make a life we want and to care for ourselves.  To consider that we do not love, is unrecognizable to many people. They think they love themselves yet they repeatedly sabotage themselves with deprecating acts. While it is easy for us to point out ways that seem self-deprecating in others, we rarely see it in ourselves. This is our ego hard at work. The ego doesn’t want us to see those things we do. In a way this is actually helpful. For many of us, realization of our behavior could be devastating. 

In the act of reaching for enlightenment, in any form, we start to notice some of these injustices that we have served ourselves. The next step is to do something about it. It is called honoring yourself. Much of what we cover up has been shielded so long that it takes layer after layer of removing the superficial stuff to get to the real stuff.  The act of removing layers is practice so that you can prepare for the more difficult area. The gooey center, which has been coated in all those layers, (not to mention chemicals) is what it is really all about.

That gooey middle is our salvation. How long does it take to get to the gooey middle? This depends on many factors. How badly you want to get there. How willing you are to see the ugly truth and mostly, how you plan to go about it. There are so many approaches, like all the volumes of books that Hay House puts out. Each of those authors found a unique way to search for their gooey middle. Some were forced through crazy hardships, others from health problems and still others from backgrounds that forced it upon them.

Do you seek ‘enlightenment’? Or if that word is outrageous to you, do you seek just a different way of doing things? Or finding yourself? One simple question can help you. You can use it as often as you would like. It will start your ball rolling in a different direction. The question is quite simply, “What can I do next?” Throw it out there like a boomerang, expecting you will get information back.  

Now that you know a simple solution to getting yourself headed in a different direction, why not take that first step? You will be fascinated at what direction it takes you. This is an exciting journey, a journey that will lead to the garden of your beautiful soul. Along the way, you will get glimpses of the your beauty, as it was always there. The beauty of your soul in love. The beauty of your true self. The beauty of love that has been but a seed and is now blossoming. You have so much to gain on this new journey.

Be well my friend and as always,

Love and Light,

Are you trying to avoid anything?

Each of us has something that makes us shudder. Something that we take great effort to avoid. Do you know what that is for you? I'm not talking about spiders or snakes. Nor anything physical for that matter. I am referring to difficult things we need to embrace to further our growth and abundance. For some people it could be change (Numerology defines this as issues of Freedom and Discipline). For others it could be perfectionism (Numerology defines this as Vision and Acceptance). The thing for me is: vulnerability (Issues of Trust and Openness). This realization came to me after I was told that my heart chakra required some strengthening. Specifically, it needed to be more compassionate. 

So what does vulnerability have to do with sympathy for the suffering of others? What is the connection? In order to trust others, we need to trust ourselves. We need to open our heart and take emotional risks. And get this; we need to share feelings. Yikes! When you share your own suffering, others are able to share theirs. You begin to see that we are all going through many of the same things, thus creating compassion.

Numerology has taken me far in creating compassion but its birth place was during some self-actualizing exercise to strengthen my heart chakra. I had come across that word vulnerability. It had created such a burdensome physical response that I needed to give it some attention. As I began to write down my feelings it flowed somewhat naturally into a poem.

 This is dedicated to my sister Bev, for she now knows how this is important.

This word makes me quiver
This word makes me quake
Scary, scary, scary
The same as an earthquake

To avoid this seems imperative
To avoid this is my chief desire
Disturbing, disturbing, disturbing
Akin to setting yourself on fire

I keep busy to allude it
I keep busy to dupe its fate
Creepy, creepy, creepy
Resembling the opening of Hells Gate

It is a situation that I do not embrace
It is a situation that my attention I do not intend
Awful, awful, awful
Identical to the death of a dear friend

It keeps at me in relationships that are eventually evaded
It keeps at me in council and in verse
Atrocious, atrocious, atrocious
Like an evil curse

The need to deal with it resonates in my body
The need to deal with it is crystal clear
Painful, painful, painful
Comparable to manifesting my worst fear

And so, I bravely ask for help and soon after, ask for faith
And so, I begin to comprehend
“We are here! We are here! We are here!
I now follow the guidance my angels send

I am not afraid of it anymore
No more pain, no more evading, no more dread
“You are safe! You are safe! You are safe!"
Victory is in my head

 

I dare you to be vulnerable. I double-dog dare you!

All my love and light,

Tricia
