Shift Happens...Day 17 of my Cleanse

Lots to think about these days for me, I am carrying on with my cleanse and feeling pretty good. My leg is mostly better (funny how that goes!) and I have been upping my Yoga again. I have learned over the years to keep going no matter what, just modify the routine as you need to but, to not stop....

And that sort of sums up life, doesn't it? No matter what comes our way, do not stop, do not give up, do not give in, do not turn around and for God's sake - do not go back. Just keep thinking, keep doing, keep moving and keep going.

This really is the only way through the obstacles, issues, energy and other stuff that comes up along the way. This is not the time of year to be resting actually - we are in a preparation phase of shifting energy right now and it's about time.

For those who have been actively involved in seeking change, creating something better, moving forwards and shifting your energy onto higher ground - this is the moment we have been waiting for! It's all coming together right now - the energy is right, the time is right and we are finally in the right place for this to happen.

So, what is required of us right now? Perhaps it's to be patient a little longer....maybe it's to give ourselves that little push in new and different directions. Then again, there are always little loose ends that need to be tidied up, connections to be made and more ways to stick our necks out there.

Today is a day for action - small and big ones. If there is only one thing that can keep you going at any time - it should be this; 

Where there's a will, there's a way and those who are willing, will be shown the way...

Energetic Resistance and Will Power

I am making plans today to do something different - not quite sure what I will do yet. But, you know how we all have these 'things' we would like to do - or perhaps it's something we have done before and need to do more of...

What I am talking about are visits to a favourite beach, a walk in the forest, taking the children on some outing or other. These little things that can make life a little more fun and create some special moments. Often days such as these define who we are.... yet we are reluctant to get moving on them.

Whenever we face resistance, by walking into the front of that wall knowing the energy will dissipate from sheer force of will - we are on our way to overcoming far more then only physical addictions. We are now moving into the arena of spiritual energy blocks, breaking down darkness.

I often think if I knew the full extent to which I was controlled from outside forces when I first started walking this path - I am not certain I would have been able to comprehend just where I needed to go, to get where I am now.

These other influences and interference energies have manipulated our will - causing us to want or desire something, then to back down from creating it. To take an otherwise magical experience and waste it on lack of focus and discord...

Certainty and knowingness in what you want from this life and where you are going are not always steady companions on this path. They are often seen running alongside us as we climb further up our mountains - to be found there waiting at the end of each day.

Part of being absolute in our beliefs rises up from our will power. The sheer force of our will has not been known and will not be fully realized until each piece has been reclaimed from beyond those walls of resistance...

Today is a good day to do something about that

Will Power, Self Control - Mastery

Today is my second day of this mini - cleanse and I am already planning my weekend menu! LOL But, I will add right here that this is not difficult to do at all - at one time, when my mind or my will power or my self control was NOT my own - doing something like this would have been nearly impossible.

If you want to get started with fasting, detoxes and mini or Master Cleanses but are feeling such a huge level of resistance - start out slowly. I can tell you from my own experience that these issues of not feeling as if you are in control of your own mind are very real. And for the most part you are not in control of your own mind - at least not yet.

It probably took me about 4 months to get in the door of mind-control and then to take over the reigns, so to speak, once I was inside. This takes work, dedication, commitment, perseverance and whatever you can throw at it - but it is the most worthwhile thing that I have ever done.

In my book The Pagan Diet, I talk you through how to start incorporating fasting into your life slowly, taking each day as it comes and all the little things that you need to know, what you will have to work through and many of the issues, such as hunger, that you will face as you walk yourself forward into a better place.

I have not one shred of doubt in my body's ability to change, heal, fix, alter, remove or accomplish anything that I set out to do - and now that my mind is fully onside and working with me, I know that this is a full on approach to living. Perhaps one of the best things is that I know there is still so much more of me to awaken, return, find and discover or re-cover - this is like an adventure!

Through proper eating (if you are uncertain of what you need to be eating order my book The Way to Heal/Detox) you take back your body, by connecting with the land, keeping a garden, including ceremony and ritual in your life you take back your spirit and through water fasting, cleansing, detox, spending time in deep contemplation (The Pagan Diet) - you take back your mind. 

This is a life that is interesting, full, alive and entirely built upon a solid foundation of following your dreams, opening up your heart and learning how to connect to universal Oneness. For those of you who are wondering - no, this does not happen spontaneously, an awakening is a cellular activity involving an energetic shift that requires of you to overcome the obstacles placed in your way.

If you want to be, you can be in charge of these shifts while removing the obstacles
