Practical Spiritual Energy-Work (Shen-Gung), #3 -- Followup! |
Enjoying your 'Growth Period'???Thanks to everyone who came-out to the Practical Spiritual Energy-Work #3 on Saturday September 23rd! We all had another great time 'working our space' (ie. becoming more aware, running our own energy, grounding, blowing-up roses, healing, etc...).
We did a lot of spiritual 'work' this past weekend... take a moment
& validate yourself, & notice if anything 'feels different'... When you've done a bunch of 'spiritual work', ie worked your tools a lot, eg. at a seminar ...
sometimes amidst all the good, warm feelings, you also get a kinda
"hmmmm" feeling. So, how's your space now? Take a moment & notice if
that sounds a bit familiar, & if you've maybe felt something
similar in the past day, week, month, etc. If everything feels great --
hey, that's great! But sometimes, you might feel a little different,
maybe even 'strange'... kinda "the same but different somehow". Don't worry-- that's a normal reaction when you've worked your space a lot. You see, when people really work their space, often their spirit / spiritual-energy goes "wheee!" [technical term ]... ...but sometimes, after a while, their body goes "whoa". Why is that? Several reasons: - spirit 'works' energy faster than the body can - spirit doesn't have emotion, memory, or 'habit' (ie, the body takes longer to learn to work/use a new energy) - after working a lot of energy, the body likes to sleep for 8+ hours (while the spirit is still rarin' to go) We call this a "Growth Period"... & loosely translated, it means "head up butt". So for the next few days, give yourself lots of permission to: - be a little more 'wrong' than usual - hear yourself say "I thought I knew that already..." a few more times than usual - maybe just feeling a little more 'sensitive' than usual, eg. taking things just a little bit more 'personally'. In t'ai ch'i we call it, "Invest in Loss". So invest away! Just be confident you'll come-out of your Growth Period flush w/ new enthusiasm, a new space, more awareness, & (even) a bit more confidence in your new capabilities. I'm not kidding-- this will happen! And if anything in your space is saying "yeah, right", well then toss that [nagging doubt] in a rose, make it wear something hideous, & laugh at it a while. Meanwhile, here's a few Next Steps:
Enjoy your New Space, & See you Next Time!! dave a. anselmi |
