Our Skin - the Source of the Energy Field

Over these past few weeks I have been busy re-examining my own mind/body/life in terms of my energy field. How this has come about is through this second part of my detox (part 2 or part 27 I can no longer tell!) where this time, I am taking the time to detox my skin.

I have actually started writing and talking about this a dozen times over the last few months only to not be able to put the right words down. So I just decided finally to ramble on about what I am feeling (that’s kind of what I do best anyway).

So….anyhow, here I am deep in the middle of a skin detox and what can I say? It is perhaps the most insightful and deepest cleanse to date. Yes, I know….the Mother (monster?) of all of them was the parasite cleanse (30 days on water, ask me about it sometime….please!).

Well, this is different altogether, I am eating, doing some fasting, working away at the various things I do and am seeing progress but in a totally new and completely different direction.

I have done the detoxes nearly as long as I have been walking this path….years and years of cleansing but the one area I had not really ever thought about to such an extent was my skin!

And it’s not that I didn’t pay attention to my skin. Years ago I stopped wearing make-up and haven’t even put so much as a moisturizer on my hands choosing instead to make my own comfrey creams etc. and use only the most natural things I can make myself.

I think I just thought my skin was being detoxed along with the rest of me (and it probably was to some extent) but clearly it wasn’t enough because I still felt toxic even after fasting for so long and clearing out my cells to the bone.

And I say this loosely….because I not only felt the toxins around me, I could ‘see’ them in my energy field along with the blocks they create. They were clearly there and quite active in my life, leaving me with no doubt they had to go.

Once I figured out I needed to also embark on a skin detox after my fasting/cleansing/clearing, it took me a few weeks to get some sort of a programme going – because this was something quite new for me.

Now you know what I have been up to over this past summer….working away at breaking down these energy blocks, removing unhealthy energy patterns and generally trying to change my life for the better – this time, through the skin and energy field that it creates.

Onwards and upwards!! (smile)

This Darkness is Not Absolute - Let There Be Light

It’s been a great week so far…the weather has been dry again (I am actually watering my garden) with most of the rain clouds passing us by. Of course, when it’s like this outside my mind automatically runs to – will it last?

And then, when I think about it, I realize I have a pattern of thinking like this in so many other areas of my life as well. It’s a ‘it’s nice/good/better right now, but this will change’ sort of negative expectation.

This theme runs throughout every area of my life (all energetic patterns are like that) and no doubt affects me in a detrimental way. Not only does it take some of the joy out of the present moment, this is fear based thinking at work.

I can see the thread of darkness as it weaves it’s way into my thoughts….Will the work last, will these good feelings stay, will things keep getting better? All the while I am bracing myself for something to change for the worst.

We are so conditioned to expect bad news, negative feelings, heavy energy and have poor experiences. Every single outlet or information source spews out the bad and the ugly, with little good.

This darkness seems absolute.

That’s why when we see a good news story (practically anywhere) we jump on it, people wade in, just to taste the sweeter waters and to soak up some rays. Any glimmer of light is like a magnet for the souls who are seekers.

If experience has taught me anything along these roads I have been walking…it’s this; it does get better, it will change, there is so much good in the world, there is a light that never goes out……

We have to change our minds - recondition our guts to think from a higher, lighter and clearer level (through diet, exercise, fasting, fresh real food). Only then will our thoughts shift from low expectations (or none) to higher more positive expectations with everything.

It’s somewhere deep inside of us, like a pilot light and perhaps the world is finally ready for some brighter sparks to ignite that fire. All we have to do is believe.

Releasing Energy Goes Both Ways - Let Go & Be Let Go Of

The energy today is mixed – perhaps a bit like the weather in some ways, but also very much connected to how we feel about ourselves right now – uncertain, insecure and a little wobbly on our feet.

What is more – I don’t think these emotions, senses or feelings are even ours. This sounds very much like those who are in positions of power. Think about it – the front they present is one of certainty about what they are planning on doing (or not doing).

However….I am pretty sure behind the smile is a worry that this time they have gone too far. Because what happens when an entire group reaches their breaking point  – well, that’s anybody’s guess. Or perhaps we are already seeing those seedlings of discontent grow in the spring sunshine.

Inside of our bodies it is no different – it’s an exact mirror. Something else is sitting in the seat of power and it’s not us. We are capable of so much more then we think or are told we can do.

In fact, our power, ability and divinity is what has been harnessed and held onto by these energy vampires who are busy feeding off our life essence. Think about all they get from those of us who ‘feel’ we are powerless…

Lots to think about for me today – energy patterns coming up and hopefully ready to be broken and then surge forward in so many ways. This fast is moving me right along my path….

Today I am on day 5 of my fast and still feeling pretty good – some detox symptoms, but as I mentioned when I did my 30 days parasite cleanse, they are very mild when doing a water cleanse. I have been drinking lots of tea (my own blends) with nettle and a few other herbs for my energy field and I can see how deeply it is working.

Being spring I am also out collecting the first nettle, dandelions and other roots and shoots coming up through the warming earth. This is one of my favourite times of the year for that very reason.

I get to work with these lovely plants – cooking with them, drying some for my teas and making some preserves to be enjoyed in the coming months.  I don’t for a minute discount how powerful they are – use them in your cleanse/detox/fast and they will move you to higher ground.

Overcoming Energetic Patterns of Fear

Today has been a strange energy day – yet another one this week. Perhaps it’s the sunshine – light tends to highlight the dust and cracks in things. Or maybe it is something else entirely.

It feels as if something is changing…I know that I certainly am. My body has been telling me that my life is coming back on the inside of my gut – in the spaces and places it has been depleted for so long.

I am not always certain that I am feeling or sensing these differences….but I do know that my body feels and seems to be a bit different since I came off the 30 day cleanse. There are more subtle changes – perhaps that’s the right word for it.

One thing that has been on my mind a lot is how my approach to food, living and just being here has evolved over the past couple of years in particular. When I look back at that time frame I can see a lot of change in myself and my family.

It’s this day to day living that gets difficult at times for those of us walking the spiritual path – one word that has meant a lot to me over the years is ‘overcome’. Today I was pondering this word once again, as I mulled over another energetic pattern I wanted to be done with.

That pattern is one of fear.

We are all still tackling fear in our lives on so many levels – it feels as if it is coming at us from so many angles that it’s hard to keep them all out. But, it is worthwhile work to do – removing and breaking free of the pattern of fear. Where there is fear, there isn’t love – there actually isn’t much of anything – just a hole.

Another thing I have noticed lately is how I have been picking up fear from others. And this is yet another pattern I want to break free from. I can remember being like this all of my life and would cringe at the thought of being around people I knew to be fearful.

Right now I am trying to think of some words to describe how it feels to me…if I were to start with my stomach it’s as if there is an emptiness inside. Then my mind loses all focus on reality or the present moment and spiritually I tend to sense that I am depleted.

Like a dead or dying horse. Yet, I know this is not mine – this is how someone else’s fear (I have picked up) feels around me. My own fear – is totally different, that would be more of a reaction – it propels me into action.

Lots to think about here while I work through each of these important issues…I have fasted for the past couple of days and will do so again next week. It always gets things moving!

Clearing Out Darkness From Within

Today has been a busy one – we had our Bee Keeping class in Loughbeg Farm and it was fun – the kind of day when you feel pleasantly tired at the end of it and ready for rest.

A lot has been going through my mind these days however as I move along each day of this parasite cleanse….when a person is not busy digesting food, the mind is free to ‘digest’ all the emotions, patterns and issues that rise to the surface.

I am feeling things moving and changing however – but one other thing that I am quite pleased about is how I am understanding and getting underneath how these parasites work and affect our well-being.

They are quite devastating overall to our bodies, mind and spirits – perhaps we don’t really know how deeply they affect us and wear us down. But, the operative word here appears to be ‘wearing’ us down.

When ever there is a parasite in our body – perhaps in the wrong place, where it has too much opportunity for being well fed, or has embedded into the gut wall very deeply – we are undernourished.

What is worse, we are underfed in our minds as well as our spirits because these parasites stop at nothing short of taking everything (at least the best of everything) for themselves.

Our bodies contain all vital resources necessary for a long and healthy life on this planet – when we are well fed with wholesome food and water. If we were free of these life force stealing creatures – that life would be far richer and more rewarding.

Any time spent clearing out such darkness from our bodies is time well spent.
