Letting Go and Moving On

Help for Moving On from Deteriorating Situations

Transformation Game - Moving OnMany people are having a difficult time being stable because they are getting pulled out of the present by deteriorating circumstances and emotional attachments that threaten to overthrow their wellbeing. One remedy would be to make sure you’re grounded in the New Paradigm of common ground for the common good by going through Kuan Yin’s I Ching Reading for moving on.

“If you are experiencing a situation where there is:

  • a great deal of incompetence
  • argumentative persons
  • societal discord
  • a break up in friendship or family relations
  • refusal to participate in cooperative ventures or
  • depressed health due to a toxic environment…

The situation is definitely in the flow of the I Ching Hexagram #23 – DETERIORATION.

In times such as this, hostile displays of self-righteousness will absolutely backfire. This is not the time to push your expectations or agendas. Withdraw and consolidate your energy as best as you can. Take care and stay strong within yourself. Do not push your personal agenda regarding this particular situation and withdraw as much investment of your time or money as you reasonably can. Unwillingness to let go will most probably result in loss.

The best things to do when dealing with DETERIORATING situations are:

I connect my consciousness with Hope.
  1. Take care of yourself very sensibly and find acceptance of the times within yourself.
  2. Be generous and kind to those you care about – especially yourself!
  3. Maintain your inner connection to Hope.
  4. Keep your focus on those things that are working. They are the important opportunities that are available to you now.
  5. Keep emotional reactions to a minimum and refrain from jumping to conclusions.
  6. Meditate, surrender to the fact that all things must end. Know that eventually there will come a change for the better. 

If you deal with a situation of DETERIORATION with an attitude of ‘I’m going to fix this’ or ‘I need to stop what’s happening,’ you will actually give the situation more fuel, prolong it and maybe even escalate it. When you let go, Nature can take its course. In most cases, the negativity will feed on itself and die out naturally. This reality may be unpleasant however, acceptance is what is called for.” 

Here’s some help through a Transformation Game called “Letting Go and Moving On.”

Gently gaze at these Intuitive Learning Circles one at a time and consider the question or affirmation that goes with each Step. This process helps you to become aware of what’s bothering you, so that you can make a different choice to use your energy more productively and in tune with your Inner Guidance.

 Step 1:

What is a situation you’re experiencing now that is DETERIORATING? Trust the message that comes through from your deepest, wisest guidance.

If your mind is blocked or blank go here and read about Fixated Thoughts or Shock>

 

 

Step 2:

Enhance your inner guidance by calming your senses and bringing them into balance. Some may be turned up too high and some may be too low. Relax and allow your eyes to rest gently on the Circle below.

Mind Body IntegrationTake some deep breaths and let your shoulders drop. Adjust the volume to your senses. Do that both crossed and uncrossed over the midline of your body to achieve greater mind body integration.

 

Step 3:

Release your conditioning to personally attach to that situation.

“I uproot the conditioning, beliefs and behaviors that are pulling me into this DETERIORATING situation.”

“I release them to the Light where they can safely be transformed.”

 

Step 4.

Can you  identify the emotion that pulls you towards the DETERIORATING situation? 

Once you have identified what you’re feeling, take a moment and just relax into it. Are you picking up on somebody else’s emotions or your own? If it’s some one’s else’s, resolve to let it go as part of this process. 

If it’s yours, it could be a phobia, an obsession or a compulsion. Relax and use these positive affirmations to help you:

“I accept that this emotional state is present and that it must change. All things eventually change. I am bigger than the emotions I’m feeling.”

If you can, rub your shoulders and neck for a minute or two. The more you relax and accept what you’re feeling, the easier it will release and dissipate.

 

Step 5:

When stepping out of a DETERIORATING situation, it helps to be grounded in a new mindset that can actually support your goals.

If you meditate on the “map” available in this image, your mind can get a better grasp of how it can reorganize your energy in the New Paradigm we’ve entered…

This template called “Common Ground for the Common Good” is based on the concepts of equality, peaceful co-operation and balanced prosperity. This imprint encourages us to establish a mindset where we can work with each other and the Planet going into the future.

 

Step 6:

To help you get centered in that new environment, bring your awareness to your body. Go to your solar plexus area and open your Third Chakra, the home to your Essence and “gut instincts.”  

Use this Reiki Chakra Key to release any toxic energy in that energy center. Take whatever time is needed to let the chakra repair itself and get back into balance.

 

Step 7:

Bring your awareness to your Heart Center. Allow this Reiki Chakra Key to help you open and balance it as well.

Keep relaxing and breathing into it. Eventually, you will be able to feel positive life energy radiating out. The light of your Heart Chakra is shining!

 

Step 8.

Visualize a golden web of life connecting these two main energy centers.

“I strengthen and increase my level of inner connection and confidence.”

 

Step 9.

Let this symbol for Divine Protection help you to close down harmful energy channels from the past.

Once they’re shut down, open up to a positive flow of chi’ and connect up with helpful communication channels.

 

Step 10.

Now you can gaze softly at this Soul Prayer Chart that deepens your connection with the power of your Soul. Affirm that your energy system can adapt to the changes that are needed. Continue to relax and breathe as you use this affirmation:

“When it comes to the situation of _________, I exist and am empowered to let go safely and manifest my highest good.”

 

Step 11:

Connect with your Soul’s unique vibration and energy. Continue to relax and breathe as you use this affirmation:

“I am resonating with the vibration of my Soul. I strengthen my unique gifts and talents.”

 

Step 12:

Use this Chart to help you detach from negative energies around your situation. These may include energies from other people, even close friends or family members.

Like a healing balm, imagine that a loving coat of peace and comfort is pouring down over you.

“I release all attachments and energy signatures that are not from my Soul.” 
“I detach from destructive energies, lies, curses, sabotage and illnesses.”

 

Step 13:

Consciously close down any destructive energy channels that are coming from the DETERIORATING situation.

“I am no longer entangled with that DETERIORATING situation.”

 

Step 14.

Now, get fully present. Use this affirmation to help you:

“I live in the present and deal with what is.”

If you’re having trouble getting present, it can help to close your fingers into fists and open them again, several times. If you get overwhelmed or feel a strong emotion come up, go back to Step #2 and repeat the process to relax and dissipate the emotion.

 

Step 15:

Now that you are present, ask your deepest wisest guidance:

“What action can I take to help me to move on?”

Take as much time as you need to reorganize your thoughts and energy around positive action.

 

Step 16:

Consciously re-direct your energy and attention toward a situation you want to encourage instead. Move your attention and energy away from the DETERIORATING situation.

“I turn my energy toward productive activities and plans.”

 

Step 17:

Use this symbol to consciously release any remaining mental, emotional or spiritual baggage that’s interfering with your freedom. 

You can visualize them as dark clouds or entanglements that you surrender to the Light to be transformed. Stay with it until you feel they’re completely gone.

Please note: Never send destructive energies into the Earth, she already has too much to handle now. Use the Earth for planting seeds of happiness and life – not death!

Step 18:

Finish the game by closing off the pathways in your mind that lead back to the DETERIORATING situation.

“I let go and seal off the ways I prolong or maintain suffering for myself or anyone else.”

Closure for Mind Body Healing

Congratulations!

Having the faith that you don’t need to be in control of a DETERIORATING situation is a big help in coming to terms with change and moving on in a positive way.

SOS for Collapse

Recovering from a Traumatic Experience: SOS For Collapse ~

SOS for CollapseAfter a traumatic experience many people feel lost, shattered or fragmented and if they don’t get a chance to reintegrate, their power and life force can easily get drained.

Moreover, if the problem isn’t addressed fairly quickly, the pattern can become ingrained, making the individual more susceptible to long-term poor health, anxiety, hopelessness and/or feeling disconnected.

Going through SOS for Collapse helps to quickly reconnect fragmented parts of your Essence and energy. By reducing the impact of shock and fear on the nervous system, patterns of hopelessness can be dispelled before they get a chance to become habitual.

SOS for Collapse - Soul Oriented SolutionsUse this formula when you are:

  • Feeling lost, scattered or out of balance
  • Anxious or upset by an experience that’s overwhelmed you
  • Weakened and want to regain your strength
  • Disoriented due to a radical change
  • Triggered by the memory of a traumatic event
  • Having a flashback or out of body experience.
  • Going through a major reorganization of consciousness.

Directions: Confirm this is the best formula for you with the SOS symbol.

Here’s how it works: Simply go through the formula while you follow the directions. Gaze softly at each image and notice any thoughts or feelings you might have in response to the words that accompany them. Some people like to write down their insights to share with a trusted counselor or friend.

You might also want to use this formula like a prayer or request for help. Remember to remain open though, because help doesn’t always come in the way we expect it to!

Caution: The use of this self-care formula is not intended to take the place of appropriate medical and/or psychiatric care when dealing with trauma and recovery. If you are having thoughts of suicide or extreme panic, call 988 or seek help immediately.

Healing Emotional Shock

Any person who is going through serious loss could experience emotional shock.

The symptoms of emotional shock are disorientation, numbness, mental confusion or fragmentation. A person may even disconnect and leave their body. This includes people who are witness to traumatic experiences in some way. 

These are all ways that the unconscious mind protects us during a traumatic event.

Note: If you are going through a serious physical disruption or environmental crisis, please go to Stabilize During a Shocking Event.

This self-care formula can help when you are: 

  • Feeling stuck, immobilized, detached or trapped
  • Unable to rest, relax and let go
  • Caught in a blank or fixated state of mind
  • Waking up at night worried, with obsessive thoughts
  • Reliving painful experiences
  • Alternately feeling trapped and shattered.

Using the Intuitive Learning Circle method for healing emotional shock ~

Sometimes people who’ve received bad news or experienced a traumatic event will tell you that they’re fine and not to worry about them. They may get confused or shut down and not be able to explain what’s happening to them. That’s because one of the main symptoms of being in shock is not being aware of being in shock. Why is that? During a shock, the mind goes blank as a form of protection.

The Brain and Emotional Shock

Any person who’s going through serious loss could experience emotional shock. The symptoms are disorientation, numbness, mental confusion or fragmentation. A person may even disconnect and leave their body. This includes people who are witness to traumatic experiences in some way. These are all ways that the unconscious mind protects us during a traumatic event.

The shock response is natural and not a sign of spiritual, mental or emotional weakness. It is a physiological event. Nevertheless, if the person doesn’t get a chance to get grounded in their body again – or if they’re not able to – serious problems may develop. Blocked energy and a constant state of fight or flight takes its toll over time. Statements like: “I can’t think straight,” “my life was shattered” or “I feel disconnected” describe the experience of emotional shock. 

If any of the above seems familiar, you can go through this formula step by step to help you access your own innate healing abilities and bring yourself back into balance.

Mind Body Integration

Mind Body Integration

For best results, look at each symbol both crossed over the midline of the body and uncrossed so that the correction is more complete.

Let yourself breathe and relax as much as possible. Don’t worry if the images move around or change in any way. That just means the Circles are working and that your mind and body are relaxing.
Be sure to go through the entire formula and at the end, give yourself time to rest and integrate.

Healing Emotional Shock

Step One:

Take several deep breaths and relax while you look at Condor’s Medicine Circle that releases shock and inner conflict.

Imagine you can use it to focus in on a conflict or painful experience that’s been difficult to move on from. Somehow, it’s always blocking your way. If your mind has gone blank, relax into how “blank” it is. You may get a sense of what it’s about, or you may not.

Once you find the fixation, sit back and relax. Take several deep breaths.
If emotions come up, relax into them. Imagine that whatever’s happening – the darkness, the chaos or heaviness is also relaxing.
Let it soften and melt away, like ice under a beautiful beam of Sunlight.
Keep your attention on it until it’s completely gone.

Repeat the process with other blockages or conflicts that come up.

 

Step Two:

While you’re relaxing, use this Soul Prayer Chart to remember another time when you were very happy or feeling good about an important physical goal.
What color or felt sense relaxes you and feels good?
If you can increase the color to be stronger and more vibrant, you’ve found your personal Soul Color or vibration.

Now you can tap into your personal power and naturally bring it into balance, which gives you protection and relieves stress.
Being in balance makes everything easier! Take a few minutes to relax and enjoy that feeling.

 

Step Three:

The next step is to bring your senses into balance with River Medicine so that you can see, feel and hear things without the distortion that often accompanies shock.

As you breathe deeply, let the Circle help you to adjust the volume and pitch of your senses to just the right level for you.
Not too high – and not too low.

Soon you will be able to hear that “calm, gentle voice” inside that reminds you to pay attention to what matters the most for you.
You can see things more clearly, as they really are.
You are present and aware of your surroundings.

 

Step Four:

When a person is recovering from emotional shock, their energy may express some instability like being scattered, reversed or even shut down completely.

If that’s happening for you, let this Correction Key help you repair any glitches, holes or blockages in your system.

Keep relaxing with it until you feel the jagged energy smoothing out and the calm energy of your Soul coming through even stronger.

 

Step Five:

 If your gut feels tight or uncomfortable, use this Reiki Chakra Key for your Solar Plexus Chakra to help you relax and get back into balance there.
Your solar plexus is that soft place in your belly where your ribs go up. Just take some nice breaths and feel the tension melt away again.

It’s safe. You feel safe and more relaxed with every breath.

It’s okay to be in your body.
Allow time to let your energy settle.

 

Step Six:

Now you can let your heart center recover. This Reiki Chakra Key helps you to reconnect with your Heart Chakra energy and unwind any residual tightness.
Breathe deeply and take your time.
Your balance is returning. You can feel the tightness unwinding.

Allow any heaviness to lift up out of your heart and send it to the Sun where it can be transformed.

You are gaining the strength and resilience you need to let your Light shine.

 

Step Seven:

Sometimes a person who’s healing from an emotional shock will be disoriented and feel a bit “out of their body.” In case that’s happening with you, take a few minutes with Starlight Medicine to consciously bring yourself back into your body.
You are back at home in your heart and solar plexus.

If you’re having trouble, notice the time and where you are. You can open and close your hands into fists. Move your fingers and wiggle your toes around.

Or, you can turn your eyes to the right of you and then to the left. Notice what is above and below. Then, close your eyes and rest for a moment.
These actions all help you reorient after an emotional shock.

 

Step Eight:

Now, it’s important to make sure that your energy can synchronize and ground in the new paradigm of Common Ground for the Common Good. Without proper grounding, you could get distracted and confused enough to go back to the holes and deterioration of the old paradigm.

That’s not what you want. Deciding to move with Mother Nature rather than against her matters now more than ever!

Let Electric Eel’s Medicine help you. Place both feet on the ground and your hands on each knee while you meditate on getting grounded.
Your energy is getting more and more coherent and the Earth supports you.

Again, take all the time you need with this.

 

Step Nine:

At this point, you’ll want to make sure you don’t fall back into any old holes or get sucked into destructive habits.

Fly Medicine will help you deconstruct those habits and rabbit holes that have been causing you harm. Imagine them collapsing like old sewer lines.
Then, close up any energy drains so that you can recover your strength.

Once the holes are collapsed, ask for the leftover empty space to be filled in with healthy, life affirming energy.

 

Step Ten:

As you gaze at this symbol for Divine Protection, let it help you adapt to the new energy channels that affirms life through the Element of Air.

Begin by closing down old, harmful energy channels from the past.
Then, allow the beneficial chi’ to flow through you and support you going forward.

Notice that this energy is much lighter and quicker than the chi of the old paradigm, which has turned stagnant and toxic to life.

Finally, you’re ready to connect with new channels of communication.
Visualize all the lines coming together and connecting into the center circle.

 

Step Eleven:

Oftentimes, letting go of emotional shock requires a significant change in priorities. There may be certain systems, plans, ideas or habitual patterns that have become negative and are no longer relevant or constructive. Your understanding of things may get suddenly reversed. 

You can use this symbol for dissolving destructive blueprints to help you identify them and dissolve whatever is confusing you.

Actively imagine that destructive or negative patterns in your mind are like heavy clouds or a jumbled maze of confusion, fears and nightmares.

Once you have the image, bring the pure light of the Sun in and dissolve the maze completely.
You’ll know that you’re done when you can see yourself standing in a beautiful open field with clear blue skies all around.

Please note: It’s time to stop sending negative emotions to the Earth, she already has too much to handle now. Use the Earth for planting seeds of happiness and life – not death!

 

Step Twelve:

Seal and heal any holes, leaks or openings in your energy field. Leaky energy can leave you open to danger or allow harmful energies to attach to you. It can also leave you feeling drained and exhausted.

As you gaze at Piranha’s Medicine Circle, imagine dangerous leaks, doors and pathways are closing as if they were never there.

All holes are healed and sealed. You are following the direction of your Soul’s protection.

 

Step Thirteen:

To complete your healing for emotional shock, take your time with this Soul Prayer Chart that helps you repair and refocus the auric field around you.
Bring your attention back to your body and the space that surrounds it.
Bring in your Soul Color again to strengthen and repair your auras for greater confidence and autonomy.

Continue until you feel protected in your body and safe in your own space.

 

Congratulations!

Now that you’re finished with the formula, consider taking a nice walk outside. Nothing grounds you like being in nature after an emotional shock.

SOS – Overwhelm Help

If you are confused, feeling out of balance or in need of overwhelm help – Welcome! You are in the right place! 

 

SOS for PTSD and Self-care

SOS offers support for your inner journey…

What are the main reasons a person may need overwhelm help?

The first reason would be that there’s simply too much information coming at the person and their mind is not able to filter priorities properly.

Overwhelm Help #1 - Too much information

The second reason would be that the person has placed too much of their  attention and energy on a certain problem or goal that is unrealistic or cannot be accomplished under the current circumstances.

Overwhelm Help #2 - Unrealistic expectations

The third reason why a person could need overwhelm help would be that the way forward has become obscured. The circumstances are dark, dim, unclear or hard to understand.

Overwhelm Help #3 - Future is unclear

The fourth reason could be that the environment has become too toxic or chaotic for a person to be able to cope in the way that they normally would.

Overwhelm Help #4 - Toxic, chaotic environment

All of these reasons have a negative effect on your physical health and can put stress on your mental / emotional health as well.

Unfortunately, people are becoming more and more overwhelmed by sudden emotional or environmental changes, toxic entanglements or triggered PTSD episodes.

A person needing overwhelm help could experience:

  • Sudden and extreme exhaustion.
  • Fight or flight panic attacks.
  • Unexplained feelings of emergency; anxiety, depression and fear.
  • Increased irritation and susceptibility to illnesses, viruses or colds.

It’s not a good idea to remain in a fight or flight state for long. When a person is in a chronic state of overwhelm, the stage is set for depression, illness or paranoia to set in. If these symptoms are already present, the person may experience an overload or energy collapse.

The self-care formulas from SOS Soul Oriented Solutions gently interrupt
unhealthy brain activity and then replace it with constructive thoughts and energy flow.

Connecting with Hope

They are simple and easy to follow by design. When going through a formula, think of it as being gently led from a dark place into the light where you can connect with Hope. 

The Intuitive Learning Circles stimulate the central nervous system in order to assist it in its natural healing process of expelling trauma and the stuck energy that surrounds it. Using SOS as a daily practice is a powerful form of self-healing with affirmations where you can easily slow down, communicate with your unconscious and reorganize how you’re taking care of yourself.

SOS Overwhelm Help offers you support at any time
of the day or night ~

Fortunately, the five Self-care Formulas listed below are designed to help “reboot” your energy and put you back in balance when you’re feeling overwhelmed. Taking a few minutes to go through the appropriate formula will give a person immediate help for coping with emotional stress.

Self-care for Loss

You can use this formula like a prayer whenever you are:
~ Stressed over a lost job or income
~ Grieving a loss of any kind
~ Recovering from an abusive experience – past or present
~ Dealing with a serious or long-term illness
~ Preparing for surgery
~ Coming to terms with tragedy, loss or death.

SOS is a hopeful self-care practice you can give yourself anytime ~

 

Helpful Tips

It’s important to take plenty of time with each question and continually breathe with full breaths. Shallow breathing inhibits the healing process and taking plenty of time counteracts the feeling of emergency.

In just a few minutes a person can get reconnected so that their energy feels balanced again. Cognitive function improves, negativity is dispelled and hope can return!

Whether you are living with someone who has PTSD or suffer from it yourself, these five formulas are powerful tools to keep handy.

Mosquito Medicine

Turn off the Buzzing with Mosquito Medicine

Self-care and Personal Growth through Gifts from the Rainforest

Mosquito Medicine
#22 Mosquito – mosquito medicine reminds us to stop listening to all the buzzing in our heads so we can hear our Soul’s guidance and stay focused on our best interests.

Are you distracted by harmful thoughts, groupthink or destructive attitudes?

If so, what would help?

Healing Action: Calm down to detach. Turn off electronics and media for a bit. Clear confusion and herd by meditating or taking a walk outdoors.

Mosquito Bites

What could be more irritating than mosquito bites?
They distract us, frustrate us,
and keep us from enjoying where we are.
Our mosquito minds act in much the same way.
Constantly finding a new problem,
a different worry, another misfortune –
and then it bemoans its life,
“Oh! When will this pain ever end?
Never. If the mosquito mind has its way.
Learn to turn off the buzzing
by becoming still and
listening to your
heart instead.

Criticism, judgment or prejudice within your own mind is keeping you isolated and unable to utilize the help that is being offered. It’s also preventing you from growing in a positive direction.

What you bring into reality has a lot to do with the choices you make and that’s often based on what you’re paying attention to. Have you been spending too much time with technology or listening to the media? Over-exposure could be a big source of trouble.

Whenever your mind is filled with negative thoughts, it isn’t a good time to push yourself further by trying to force your way through. The best thing to do is take it easy so you don’t burn yourself out. Rushing around trying to get things done will probably backfire at this time. Instead, do something special for yourself that will take your attention away from your negative thoughts. Keeping your thoughts neutral makes it easier to stay in contact with your Soul.
Or
You have been caught in a maze of conflict and contempt that seems to be unending. Chaos is rampant, no one seems to have a solution and common sense is completely absent from the situation. Creative energy is suppressed and opportunity has been shut down.

It may be necessary to transform attitudes and behaviors if you want to cooperate with the higher wisdom of your Soul. As you look at the Circle, notice the thoughts that keep going through your head. Luckily the Universe is more loving than the ego!

Instead of focusing on the conflict, look at the Circle again, only this time, focus on things that bring you joy. This could be one of those situations where “faking it till you make it” is one of the best or perhaps the only way out of your predicament.

This is not a denial of what’s happening. This is acceptance and then making a deliberate choice to focus on the very best, most productive thoughts that would be in your highest good. Doing so will help you recharge your creative batteries and get you through a difficult time.

Stop Disaster Thinking

One of the biggest challenges of facing our current situation is the problem of disaster thinking.

It’s so easy to get sucked into negative, disaster thinking. All you have to do is turn on any form of media and within minutes you’re hit with intense waves of  fear, paranoia, even wrath. Before you know it, your energy is getting drained and you’re feeling on the edge of collapse.

Stop Disaster Thinking

If you feel that you’ve already dropped into a hole of hopelessness, I recommend going through our self care formula Clearing an Overwhelmed Mind immediately or select another formula from our Overwhelm Help menu to reboot your energy.

However, if you’re still able to see that you’re heading toward one of those holes, there’s still time to stop yourself and turn around.

Of course there are plenty of disastrous events that are actually happening. I’m not suggesting that you isolate, live in denial or surround yourself with ‘nothing to see here’ apathy. However, letting your attention get sucked into all the problems while ignoring the solutions is like watching a rotten foundation collapse under your feet and assuming the rest of the building is going to stay upright and stable. It ain’t gonna happen!

Our problems can’t be solved from the same mental position they were created from. A positive balance can be struck by consciously pulling your attention and energy away from the problems and redirecting them to genuinely helpful solutions.

It may sound hard to do, but learning to stop disaster thinking can happen with a holistic approach that works with Mother Nature.

Stop Disaster Thinking in the New Paradigm

With the Intuitive Learning Circle method, you can easily use the symbols and Animal Totems Circles as refocusing tools. All you have to do is be open and follow the simple directions.

Each Circle helps gather unconscious information, organize awareness and illuminate solutions that come directly from your Soul. You are in charge!

Mind Body Integration

Mind Body Integration - Self-care for lossFor best results, look at each symbol both crossed over the midline of your body and uncrossed so that the correction is more complete.

Feel free to move at anytime in any way to help you embody your experience!

If someone is with you, talk to them about some of the feelings that you’re having. It could help you to gain perspective on your situation. Having perspective allows you to make the best decisions about what will help you now.

Start out by taking a moment to consider what kinds of situations really suck you in. At this moment, what seems to be draining you?  

An energy drain could be anything – time, work, family, politics, technology, social media or even a personal relationship.

What kind of disaster thinking comes to mind first?

Next, scroll down and gaze softly at the short sequence of Intuitive Learning Circles below. Let each Circle help you access intuitive answers to the questions that go along with them.

 

Step 1:

Take a moment to relax and take a few deep breaths. Let your shoulders drop and gently look at the Circle in whatever way that appeals to you. Once you feel pretty relaxed, ask yourself some questions:

“What am I paying attention to and is that in my best interests?”

“What am I making up about this? Is my imagination running wild? Am I thinking it could only happen one way? Or, is there a strange combination of both?”

It’s important that you take whatever answers that come to you because they’re having a significant effect on your ability to focus on a positive mindset.

 

Step 2:

Are you fixating on the problem or does your mind go blank? If so, your mental / emotional energy is feeding directly into the problem instead of solving it!

See if you can soften your thoughts and attention by relaxing with this Circle. Breathe into it and visualize the lines getting all soft and wavy, like limp, loose spaghetti noodles.

Once you’re relaxed, you can move any blockages out of the way.

 

Step 3.

Gaze softly at this next Circle that helps you access your unconscious decisions:

“What decisions am I making about this situation? What have I decided about myself? Are those productive thoughts?”

If they are productive, great! Make them even stronger. If they’re not productive, you may need to remove those unproductive decisions that are spinning around in your mind, or you may need to release fixated thoughts again with Step 2.

Notice how you can spin those blockages out by meditating on Llama’s Circle while encouraging the wheels in your mind to flow together in a clockwise direction.

Once you’ve let those unconscious decisions go, you can reprogram your mind. What kind of thoughts and decisions would be better for you to follow? Don’t judge, just relax and let this Circle help you turn your thoughts around. Oftentimes, when we change the direction of the wheels that go round in our minds, we become open to solutions that can change how we’re responding to the situation. Visualize them syncing up together in a clockwise direction.

 

Step 4.

To gain control of your thoughts, it helps to utilize the generative life force from the Element of Air. Connect with this symbol to help you integrate the new energy. Use it to close confusing energy channels from the past.

You can even connect with new channels of helpful communication. Imagine the lines in the Circle connecting up in the center. Take all the time that you need. Both crossed and uncrossed.

Step 5.

Do you need to change any intentions that are interfering with your health or happiness? If you do, it’s time to surrender them like old ashes out of a shaman’s prayer pipe.

What is a simple intention that would be more beneficial now?
Possible suggestion would include taking good care of yourself and staying in the New Paradigm to the best of your ability.

Step 6.

As you gaze at the totem for Snake Medicine, ask yourself:

“Am I willing to re-align my chakra system around my new intention using this new communication channel and generative life flow?”

If the answer you get is “no,” what is the blockage that you’re experiencing? Is a particular chakra or mindset creating a problem? What would help?

If the answer is “yes,” use your imagination to visualize protective energies like Reiki filling up and flowing through your body.  Doing this will help you to safely detach from disaster thinking and reinforce the integrity of your energy field. This may take a while. Take a break, move around or stretch for a few minutes.

 

Step 7.

If you’ve decided to take good care of yourself, continue to seal up those drains in your energy field – nice and secure.

“All leaks and drains affecting my energy are closing down and shutting off in accordance with my highest good.”

This puts your Essence in a better mindset to re-direct all that energy to the care and feeding of your body, mind and Soul!

 

Step 8.

Use this Circle to help connect you with your heart center which will empower your highest good.

“I am empowered to make beneficial decisions and maintain my highest good – for my own sake and the sake of others.”

Again, this may take a few minutes to integrate, so do what you are inspired to do. Move around and stretch if you like.

 

Step 9:

Check into your sense of direction…

“Am I clear and heading in the direction that’s genuinely helpful to me?”

If you’re confused, relax and let Dog Medicine help you get back on track.

 

Step 10.

Imagine that your spirit can turn you towards the direction of your highest good and close the door completely on all that disaster thinking. 

“All harmful pathways are sealed and healed.
I follow the direction of my Soul’s protection.” 

Once you’re clear that you’re heading in the right direction, you have successfully pulled yourself out of disaster thinking.

 

Congratulations!

Now that you know how to use the Circles and how they can help, you might want to experiment some more.

Fly Medicine | Intuitive Guidance

Close the Drains to Negativity with Fly Medicine ~

Self-care and Personal Growth through Gifts from the Rainforest:

Fly Medicine - Animal Totems

19. Fly – Fly medicine warns us to clean up self-destructive habits and attend to what’s in our best interest. Our best self-interest is health, life and the creative power of Love.

Are you getting sucked into a toxic pattern from the past?

If so, what will clean it up and set its right?

Healing Action: Don’t get sucked into bad habits. Deconstruct them. Close the drains and clean up leftover garbage. Then fill the leftover void with love, life and happiness!

Fly Right

The fly lives off the waste and garbage
left by others.
When unattended to, this pest brings bacteria and disease with it,
spreading misfortune and death among the living
He serves as a potent reminder that if you leave
unfinished business to fester, illness will return again.
Right action is about inner direction
and doing what’s in your best self-interest.
When you see the fly, consider how it’s in your best self interests to
clean up self-destructive habits and toxicity in your environment.
Then, once you’ve released the poison from your system,
leave it behind.
Do not return again to eat from your own garbage.
It’s no longer a part of you and you have no need of it,
no matter how familiar it is.

Something about a project or plan you’re involved with is falling between the cracks and has become a drain to your life force. Stop now and seriously consider what it might be.

The Fly is showing up to make it clear this situation is wasting your time and energy. Perhaps there’s something you believe about yourself or the world that’s been causing you trouble.

Your ability to take good care of yourself has been blocked by some unfinished business. You may be feeling hopeless and drained. Perhaps your ego is saying that change for the better is too hard and that you aren’t worth taking care of, so why bother? Nothing could be further from the truth. Look into Fly’s Circle and ask, “What kind of garbage am I feeding myself?”

  • Look for hidden malignancies in your thinking and eject them. If others are projecting harmful intentions at you, clear your blind spots and see the situation for what it is.
  • If you’ve been putting up with abuse from others, take courage and set some healthy boundaries. Whoever first told you that you weren’t worth taking care of was really just expressing how they felt about themselves. Don’t believe this lie, or you will fall back into destructive habits that have caused you no end of sorrow in the past. Avoid the trap by releasing agreements about needing any of that garbage anymore.
  • Make yourself a priority and choose to take care of yourself.
  • If you find yourself picking at old wounds, now is the time to decide you are not a receptacle for abuse. Use the Circle to find and excavate those toxic thoughts or attitudes and send them to the Light before they cause any more trouble. Then, visualize closing down the drains to your energy. If you do this successfully, your energy will soon return to normal.

When you’ve finished, ask Fly’s Circle to help you find the void that’s been left behind and fill it in with an extra dose of Love and healing energy. Remember that when you turn your attention towards Love, you create more of it!
