Serious sludge

If you feel you have serious sludge holding you back from accomplishing what you want to in your life, then serious measures can be taken.


When your aura is barely moving and you can't think straight, it's time.


I must stress that this is creative visualization at its most fanciful perhaps, but it can work.


We will use an imaginary object.  You can go on a search for your ethereal object by taking a journey in your mind to a favorite place or power spot.  By using your intention, you will find it.


It could be a magic wand, a wizard's staff, or like mine, a sword.


I often forget about it,but when I really need it, I remember I have a sword and I know how to  use  it.


When you find yourself with sludge, you can cleanse it.


I do this standing, moving my arms as if I am holding the sword.
You can do it this way, or do it in your meditative state.


I start cutting away all the cords around my body.  Cords from the past,  the long ago past and the recent past.


Don't worry, if you really need them, they will come back, but it is such a relief to be free of them, even for one day.


Move all around your aura,  front, sides and back. Watch them drop away.


Then ( this is just my way) I place the sword in each chakra and watch the sludge drain out.  Sixth chakra- forehead, fifth chakra-throat, fourth- heart, third- solar plexus, second- belly and first- base of spine.  I then brush off any leftover residue down my arms and legs and whisk away energy that is blocking my eyesight.


Taking my sword, I open up the energy a few feet above my head, reclaiming the pathway to my Source.


Let the light come pouring in, soothing you, clarifying you, filling every cell with healing, wholeness and a sense of your true self.
Take some time with this.


***


Ahhhhh, that feels good.  Remember, the light is always there. We just have to put ourselves in a state to receive it once again.


Your vision will be clearer. You will be centered and grounded, ready to move forward with your life again.


So, even though this exercise may sound a little out there, I find it very effective at certain times.

Basic Releasing and Relaxation Exercise

Take a deep breath and begin to slow down.  Breath again and start to let go of your day and all it took to get here tonight.


Lying there, as we are on the floor for this meditation, release anything you don't need through your spine and into the earth.  Let depression,  negativity, anxiety drain away from you.


Start at the base of your spine.  Go into each point on your vertebrae that you need to as you move up. Release, from the base of your spine.  Release from your lower back.  Breathe and release from you middle back, now the area between your shoulder blades.
Release your shoulders.  Release from the back of your neck.


Now, wiggle your jaw, relaxing your face.  Release the tension in your forehead and around  your eyes.


Now put your attention on your muscles.  Relax your calves, feel them sink into the floor.  Relax your thighs.  Relax the long muscles that support the length of your spine.


Relax your arms, your hands.  Let your body feel heavy as it rests here.  Heavy arms, heavy legs. So heavy, you feel you are the opposite of heavy-  you are floating, suspended in relaxation.


Floating free, releasing any parts of your personality that are holding you back in your goals.  No need to identify, just the intention to release.  Release addictions, behaviours you don't need anymore.  Watch them leave your aura, floating away from you.


Rest there awhile.


And now, open your seventh chakra at the top of your head and let light come pouring in.  Choose whatever color you like.  Let it fill your whole body, all your cells, starting at your toes, filling like a glass of milk.  It fills your legs, your lower body,  middle body, upper body, flowing down your arms and hands, gently filling all the way to the top of your head, the light spilling over now into your aura, healing any rips or tears.  The light filling you with health, energy and a feeling of being centered in your own body, your own self, with a sense of a new beginning for the rest of your week.

Candle Meditation

I always wanted to write a candle meditation, so here it is- we did this last night-


Begin to breathe, letting all the racing, all the running, everything that happened in your day, drop away.


Breath becoming slower, quieter.
         ***
Become aware of one small candle flame burning.  All is quiet, all is dark, just the flame burning softly- you can hear it-


The flame is golden, happy, contented to be a light in the darkness.


The darkness is not hostile, it just is.  The flame is not afraid.  It is safe, and sure of its burning, casting a perfect circle of light around itself.


It shimmers and dances, lifted a little by the breeze-


As you become aware that you are the flame, you also become aware that there are other flames, spreading out in all directions- a matrix of flames, above, below, around, through all.


Now there is another light in the distance- it seems to be coming closer, or you are coming closer to it.


The light is huge, the circle it casts is immense--and now it envelopes you- over you , under you, surrounding you-


You are inside the light, the Light of Ages, the Light of All That Is.


And in the light you feel loved, very loved.  You are absorbed into the golden light.  And you are safe, very safe-  loved and safe in this encompassing love and light.


Be there--expand into the Light-  Let Go-open your heart to the light.


***


And now you feel yourself coming back a bit.  You feel you are radiating light from a point inside the larger light. Your rays of light expand in all directions-


***


And now the immense light releases you-


And you are completely healed.


Your life is healed.


Your body is healed.


Your heart is healed- one with All- God and Goddess.


***
Coming back further now, into the candle flame burning in this room.


All is calm, all is bright, on this night and all through the ages you  have lived.


You are Spirit, filled with Light.


I honor your Spirit on this night-  Namaste.

Petlove

Today, I really know what the phrase "suffering the loss of" means.  We had to put our beloved pet down to end his suffering.  Now we are suffering.


We have lost people, but losing a pet is one of the hardest things, somehow.  I see him, or rather don't see him, in every corner of the house and yard.  He's not there to greet us in the morning or when we come home.


I wish I could have a re-do, but I am negotiating with myself to accept he is gone and that we did the right thing.  It is our responsibility as pet owners to help them at the end, I think.  But it is not easy and I don't wish it on anyone.


We were so lucky to experience this love with our pet together as a family for so many years.


Maybe somehow this will make me a better person.


I will try, and I bless him for this chance to turn sorrow into Beauty-


May he be romping with some really fun and  loving Pet Angels-


Blessings to all- Lia

After Bliss

One evening after meditation class, I was in a bit of an altered state.  We had gone deep for about an hour.  I sat with it awhile, writing about it.


Then I got up to make dinner.  Later, I thought, "What did you do that for?"


My new mantra, "Dinner can wait when you're in an altered state."


Humans are weird.  When gifted with a feeling like that, don't get up and move on- try and stay with it, feel it, BE it, for awhile, anyway.


This is also what I did after merging with the Unified Field- after about 5 minutes or less I got up and went into the house.-WHAT!?


I left it- such a profound sense of being  part of everything- Oh, my Goddess, may I be given another chance to experience this again- thank you.


 If you are meditating regularly, working on your issues to move toward healing, reading decent books, and taking care of your body, experiences like this can happen.


If you have ever felt " in the zone" doing something you love, perhaps you felt that your highest self was present and in alignment with something larger or other than your everyday self...


You may even feel that something is guiding your life, or that you can open to that guidance more.


It is in our nature, I guess, to move on, but I  plan to practice staying a little longer next time.


I am so grateful for this time and the processes I have been shown to give to other people.  Thank you, thank you, thank you-


Namaste- Lia

The Unified Field

I hesitated to share this, because it was so personal- but of course, others have had similiar experiences, or maybe everyone has, if they think about it, especially in childhood. Also, it is not easy to convey in words.


We were outside.


It was a quiet day, a Sunday, I think.


You know how some days are like that.   There is a pause in the busyness of the world.  A quiet that is deeper.


My body was quiet, too.  Maybe more quiet than it has ever been, sitting there.


We were sitting on the deck, not speaking.


The wind was coming up through the trees- purple, delicate silver-green, all lit with the sun.  The earth was vibrant with Spring.


The moving trees began speaking to me, in waves, like the ocean.


Time dissipated, changed into timelessness.


My body- mind gracefully fell away, opened up.


My molecules danced apart, expanding, entering all around me.


I became part of the unified field.


Bliss, but beyond bliss.


Thank You.

Ready for the summer

Did two of my own blogposts today- "Clearing Sluggish Energy" 2-18-14 and "Clearing  Your House" 11-12-13.


They worked!  Ready for the summer ( except for the construction).
Went swimming and got into two books.


"Things a Little Bird Told Me"  by Biz Stone, co-founder of Twitter is inspiring- a great read-  he is hilarious.


"My Wish List"  by Gregoire Delacourt translated from the French, is a thought-provoking, poignant short book. Both great summer reading.


Another thing on my agenda is getting rid of things in the house we don't need. The last time I went through this process I caught myself  simply moving things from one spot to another.


Whoa!  Stop! Throw that stuff out or give it away- that's the only way to create more space in your life (physically and mentally).


I'll let you know how it goes this time.


More meditations coming soon. - Lia


P.S. Just finished "The Memory of Love"  by Linda Olsson- what a beautiful book - challenging in a good way-I highly recommend it!
