Growing pains

Greetings everyone,

I've been busy causing trouble or as my spiritual kin would call it "harmless mischief". What I have not been doing unfortunately is working in my studio. I've reordered my space and cleaned out quite a lot of items. Changing the arrangement of my space has changed the entire energy of my home. In some ways it is smoother and more calm and retreat like. It has affected how I practice my yoga asanas. Still I haven't gotten back to my artwork there always seems to be something else that needs to be reordered or organized. I am constantly planning more and more and getting less done lately.

Last week I got a headache. This wouldn't be of much note except that it lasted for about 4 days. The worst day I had to teach my tai chi class and see a client. I had circles under my eyes so dark I was being called a raccoon. I was luckily able to drop into an expanded state for my client which also had the effect of helping alleviate some of my pain. For some unknown reason my body had decided it was going to detox. I had congestion, the irritated eyes, muscle tension in the head and neck, and it was turned up so high I was nauseous. Normally I have only felt this bad when I have taken a commercial cleanse, which is of course why I stopped doing those. When I was able to journey I was told all the shifting work I had been doing for myself and others was forcing a change in my physical template and there were more shifts to come. This spontaneous detox was to help pave the way for a new energy pattern in my physical template. I had asked to transform and to experience a deeper level of mastery. Well my wish is being granted. Dear reader when you make these wishes always add the phrase at the end "in the gentlest way possible."

The good news is that I was given a regimen to follow to help me prepare for this template upgrade. Advice from spirit should be to the point and they laid out not only my meditative practice, but some dietary guidelines as well as physical exercises. So far I've done my best to comply. The pain has subsided to a great degree, but a new shift is coming in and that makes me just a bit nervous. As it approaches I may take the advice of one of my incarnate teachers who wisely said, "You are the one with the body and you can always say no."

So to all of you out there who are tackling the major blocks and energies in your life, don't be in such a rush. Make sure you have given yourself enough time to adjust. Spiritual growth is just fine but having fun and enjoying the life around you is just as vital to your soul. Learn to appreciate the level where you are. The next lesson, energy, mastery will always be there this moment will not.

Peace and Blessings,
