A Wink From the Universe.....

It’s been a different sort of start to the week….almost as if it hasn’t yet begun but, it’s as if things have just speeded up in some way, because the energy has changed. I can feel the Universe today and it seems she is listening, hearing and watching us!

For the first time in a long time I can sense a clearing in the atmosphere around this planet we are living in perhaps the earth has detoxed enough herself right now, and things are changing once again.

The most significant change is that levels of communication between the planets and perhaps the other Universes (Universi?) has improved and is now much clearer. This will be a benefit to us all…..

In ways we can only imagine at the moment! However, I do think improvements in outer and other worldly communications are very relevant as they reflect inner changes for those of us living here on this planet.

One of our greatest downfalls as human beings within our relationships (family, partners, business, friends etc.) is often related to a failure to communicate our needs, wishes, feelings and expectations. We often just keep things bottled up with nowhere to go…..

Then, like any other form of trapped energy, they form an internal energy block within our systems leaving us with something to say and being unable to express it clearly, accurately and sometimes to even recognize these feeling or thoughts as our own.

So, this week seems hugely significant to me….things that haven’t been said or talked about are about to come up to the surface – hopefully in a gentle way for the most part. But, also, internally, switches have been flipped and impulses sent out along our nervous systems.

Now we wait for the return of that energy, with a long anticipated ‘hello’ from afar….. it is nice to be back in the loop!

Source of The Energy Field

Well, another busy day - however even as I say that, it has been a very quiet and reflective day too. I feel as if I have a lot on my mind - as if I am processing something very deep, but it's only being pulled up bit by bit.

Of course this is to be expected on any detox - the entire point is to get into the tissues, cells and organs as deeply as possible to break up the debris that has been floating around for ages. Every particle of these toxins are also related to some emotional, energetic and spiritual pattern as well. 

Right now I feel as if this cleanse will be far more about energy - an energetic detox as opposed to only on these other plains. Perhaps that is why my energy has been dipping more this time around then at other times, but only at certain points of the day.

Today is also the first day that I can say I have a few detox symptoms as well. My tongue is coated, my joints are a bit achy, my dreams are all night long, and my hair is growing very quickly! This is all as per usual anytime I have done a detox, so we'll see if something new arises.

I am actually very curious to see how this pans out - an energetic detox is something I have needed for a long time. Our energy fields are like a buffer zone around our bodies, but even more then that, they are also a conduit for communication.

The source of our energy field is perhaps the most important aspect here - it emanates outwards from our nervous systems - and with so many neurotoxins (Night Shades, medications, aspartame, MSG, fluoride etc.) being ingested, these fields are easily damaged.

Most of the damage I would see in people is usually at the back of the body - perhaps this is because the spine is the nerve centre in some respects, but nerves travel throughout the area and it appears to be a little more vulnerable. 

One of the best ways to protect your energy field is to eliminate these neurotoxins from your diet and to use herbs. I have found them to be wonderfully supportive and very protective over the years - mostly because they provide the space to heal.

Your energy field is no different then any other part of your body - it can be damaged, broken, stolen, accessed, and blocked. Perhaps it's time to do a little detox....

Going Off Grid - On the Inside

Well, it's Tuesday and we have another day of this wild weather - sort of reminds me of when I was a child living in Labrador Canada. A storm would come in for a week, and I am talking about a blizzard of epic proportions. 

We would be so excited - no school, the roads were impassable and what was best of all....no electricity! It was always so nice, just with the wood stove and the open fire. Everyone all cozy around it...well, I won't get carried away. 

It was a highly dysfunctional family - so no one was cozy, but the children thought it was fun at least!! LOL

Of course, this reminds me greatly of what I want in my own life. To be completely off the grid in terms of food, electrical power and what not. To be fully self sufficient in every sense of the word as well as to be in touch with the earth and her finer points.

I feel I am going off grid - on the inside... 

Well, at least, I know I am getting there. This is what these cleanses are indeed all about in the end. To re-connect with myself and these long hidden ancient parts of ourselves. For the most part this is taking place step by step - this time around my own electrical system is taking a good cleaning.

And do I know it! My leg is much better this week - it started with a pulled muscle, then travelled down along the entire nerve of my leg. Just sore enough to be bothersome, but not to stop me doing Yoga or going about my day.

I have just been watching the healing work unfold as the days move on - and marvel at the extraordinary work of my body. It always knows what needs to be done and when given the space, time and appropriate support - it does just that.

So that takes me up to day 23 of my detox, I am nearly there, feeling pretty good with a clear mind, healing body and open heart. We are all getting excited now about our up coming feast days - always such a treat to have a few days after our fast. 

What a way to live - in touch, in tune and connected to something great in the Universe!

Exercise is Also Good for the Soul

Not much emphasis has been placed on exercise for those who are walking a spiritual path, in fact some of the least fit people I know, claim to be on a journey of epic proportions. Yet they place little value on activity or have lost their way when it comes to their physical body.

Of course, this makes little sense and has become a significant block for these people. One that must be addressed and worked on to make every effort to clear out obstructed and congested areas in the body and throughout the energy field.

The most important aspect of following a spiritual path or being on a journey, has always been the fact that your body is the only way inward. A spiritual journey will not ever be completed without full and active participation of every part of the body.

Further to this, all communication with spiritual aspects of the self such as heart, higher self, energy systems etc. are coordinated by the nervous system. Then this links back through the hypothalamus to the roots of the hormonal function (more or less).

Your hormones must be balanced, functioning and at stable levels in order to receive timely and appropriate communication from all parts of your body. These internal chemical messengers are our human Angels and we cannot walk any path without them spiritual, or otherwise.

Exercise is an absolute must on this journey, there are so many benefits to body, mind and spirit they cannot possibly be all listed here. However, it is enough to know your internal communications are of vital importance for signs, signals and messages along the way.

And these signposts derive from both the hormonal (messaging) and nervous (signaling, communication) pathways. 

There are so many benefits to exercise this list is not nearly enough, it is just a quick look at some of the spiritual benefits of physical activity;

- balance internal body systems

- hormone regulation

- detox aid

- clarity of mind & spirit

- increase energy

- untangle energy field

- reduce energy spikes in the field

- improve immune function

- increase awareness

- better coping abilitiy

Physical aspects of awakening happen cell by cell and is very much a part of the overall picture and some would say this is the entire picture. The body is where all of this journey, traveling, inner pathways and walking a higher path takes place. 

When you commit to exercising and improving the fitness level of your body, you take your spiritual journey to a much higher level. Indeed, it is the only way to fly!

Have a lovely day,

Nervous System Clean Out

Today is a regular food day for us after finishing the 10 day cleanse and we are now pretty much back to normal eating - while all the pieces of the intense detox are still falling into place. With our Blue Moon Feast coming up on Friday and the weekend, I am keeping the food low key for now.

After each of these Master Cleanses, I always spend a few days reflecting on what was learned, where I need to go now, actions to be taken and how to keep moving forward in every positive way. This week is not any different from other times, except I do seem to be more focused on smaller details in life.

The main change I have noticed since coming off of the cleanse is my inner communication, nervous system and in-born senses are clearer, cleaner and sharper. As an intuitive, my senses (smell, taste, hearing, touch, sight etc.) are all pretty keen, and I have always heard voices (don't tell anyone), had visions and an abundance of dreams. 

However, this is something different, the only way I could begin to describe it might be to say my nerves are cleaner - they must be detoxed a bit because inside I am 'hearing' myself more and therefore able to listen more easily.

I have long been able to listen, sense and feel my own body on several different levels, and I had honestly felt it could not get any better then when I let go of the Night Shades a few years ago. Once that toxic group of fruits (potato, tomato, aubergine, chillies, peppers, gogi berries) had gone from my system, hearing/listening/communicating with my inner worlds was like night and day.

And now, it has ramped up yet again. The main thing I can put this down to is my absolute commitment to following my dreams no matter where they may take me. Perhaps with this last detox, I had finally removed the distractions holding me to a pattern going in the wrong direction. 

So today, I am feeling great - loads of energy, working out, feeling physically very strong, controlled, disciplined and clear. All the things necessary to walk a spiritual path and perhaps start enjoying some of the scenery along the way!

Well, I am off the see the Wizard,
