If that sounds like your situation then there are one of three things I can think of that are going on. One that you have not been applying the techniques from the earlier blogs or two, you need to be busy to maintain a level of sanity via avoidance, or three since deciding to improve your world, it’s just got busier.More distractions.
There are things in play here that when you bring them to light, their power over you dissolves.
One: These techniques when applied consciously and consistently, will bring a quietness and harmony to your world that is priceless. Prior to 2002 my healing journey had been more of an intellectual endeavour. Learning about healing the mind and emotions by studying the human condition, which inadvertently brought me more understanding, which in a way brought healing as the more I understood what had been done to me, the more I could forgive, the less it bothered me.
I watched as lot of Ophra and Dr Phil back in those days. It was a long, slow haul, but at least I felt like I was making progress. I was in an extremely stressful situation, I was raising a teenage son by myself, no financial assistance from my ex-husband, was building a business on my own, with all my family interstate. You could say I was stressed and had no time, but by working with the techniques I have given you, my life began to quieten down and become more effortless and magical, blessed you could say. What quickened my healing journey was that fact I was now working with the Divine, and the results were inspiring and the momentum of this kept me on track and going at a great rate. Investing whatever snippet of time and energy I could spare into my healing, gave back to me tenfold, and freed me up so I could access more time and energy to reinvest in myself. My quest for freedom was taking me from survival mode to a better place, my life was so bad back then I felt I had no choice. The choice was survive or succumb. Surviving was more fun, succumbing was not a good feeling. Plus, I knew that whatever I did not overcome or heal this lifetime, I would have to deal with in the next, so checking out was not an option. The smart thing to do is not to postpone the healing journey to the point where your life is so unbearable, you have no choice but to work on it.
Two: The thought of being still or quiet is horrifying. Staying busy keeps your pain at bay. Even yoga or mediation can feel like it’s out of the question for some. By the time I started meditation I had already healed many aspects of my life and because I did guided meditations it took me on a journey, which was a level of stillness that allowed my mind to be directed. During these times I was doing the law of forgiveness and my mind was getting quieter and quieter, so by the time I started yoga I did not have a lot of pain to connect to. Now what I want to say here is an amazingly simply way to deal with this, you do not have to suffer. The thing to know is that any painful emotions that come up when you become still are on their way out. It’s a good thing. All you need to do is to ask God or your higher self to take this (fear, anxiety, anger etc) out of you and transform it into light. Surrender it and rest in the peace. That’s it, so simple it’s unbelievable. But it works. That way you don’t have to sit under the Bodhi tree like Buddha and confront all the darkness in one go, rather you can just do it piece meal, as life gradually delivers what’s next to confront/heal, a bit at a time. When you work with the Divine on a gradient, things transform more gently and quickly. It only when we ignore conditions/emotions/situations and they build up that we get into strife. Seeking this stillness combined with the other techniques you have been given make it a much smoother ride.
Three: When you sincerely decide to start making headway into a healing journey, the physical world can start distracting you from this by giving you what appears to be reasonable excuses why you should not do this. Making your life either too busy or drama filled to slow down your progress. You can however use the drama constructively as material, re what to heal next. Just know that there is a consciousness that does not want you to be powerful, whole, wise or effective. Do not get sucked into all the distractions from the physical plane and just keep your life simple as possible while you are building your strong foundations. Then when you take on bigger games you are not swept away, but in fact become the sweeper. So profound ha ha.
The external physical world is your distraction from connecting to your true inner self, your God presence. And the funny thing is that everything, I mean everything you need you receive when you fully become one with your authentic self. Worth a shot, ya think?
