Stabilize During A Shocking Event

This self-care formula uses the Intuitive Learning Circle method for relief during extreme weather crisis or other shocking events:

If you are living through a shocking event:

Witnessing traumatic experiences
Experiencing an environmental disaster
Disoriented by personal or environmental upheaval
Feeling scattered, surprised, scared or vulnerable
Exposed to repeated emergency situations
Having trouble thinking or planning clearly.

This SOS self-care formula is a form of self-hypnosis combined with energy healing that has been used for resolving shock, enhancing inner guidance and facilitating positive change since 2001. This particular formula offers a gentle opportunity to process ongoing difficult experiences, manage emotional stress and explore positive ways to respond to unexpected and shocking events.

Any person who’s going through extreme weather related events or a crisis in their environment can experience disorientation, numbness, mental confusion or fragmentation. Even people who are witness to traumatic experiences can get caught up in the energy of the event. That includes family members, friends, therapists, clergy and other emergency responders.

The shock response is natural and not a sign of spiritual, mental or emotional weakness. It’s an important way that the mind protects itself. Nevertheless, if a person who’s going through a shocking event doesn’t get a chance to relax and separate from the experience – or if they’re not able to – serious problems can develop, including ongoing symptoms of ptsd including nightmares, flashbacks and a chronic fear of the future.

Scattered energy and a constant state of fight or flight takes its toll over time. Statements like: “I can’t think of anything positive,” “My life was shattered,” “I feel so drained” or “I just don’t know what to do,” describe the experience of ongoing, unresolved shock. Alternately, a person may put on a false front of cheerfulness and optimism, only to have their health suffer later.

If any of the above seems familiar, you can go through this formula to help you stabilize your mind and access your own innate healing abilities. Simply follow the directions step by step so you can monitor your energy and take the steps that are needed to move forward safely.

Mind Body Integration

The brain and body communicate through different channels when a part of you is crossed over the center of your body. As you go through the steps, cross and uncross a hand or foot over the midline of your body when you gaze at each Circle. Use a soft focus and breathe patiently. This will help you integrate your thinking more fully so that you can be more creative. If you have any negative self-talk, let it go by breathing through it.

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

Stabilize During a Shocking Event

Step One:

Take several deep breaths and relax while you look at this Circle that releases shock and inner conflict.

Imagine you can use it to focus in on a difficult or painful experience that’s blocking your way. If your mind is blank, focus on how “blank” it is. You may get a conscious image or message, or you may not.

Once you have a sense that your mind has found the blockage, imagine that it’s like an iceberg and the Sun is melting it away with a beautiful beam of light.
Allow it to melt until it’s completely gone.
Check for other blockages, worries or conflicts that you can do the same with.

Step Two:

In situations like this, there’s too much going on and you don’t want to scatter. Your mind may have too many windows open – like on a computer screen.

Let this Circle help you close the tabs in your mind to help you feel better and more contained.

Step Three:

The environment is changing and you need to protect yourself. Relax with this symbol and close down all harmful energy channels that your mind or body may be open and vulnerable to. Take all the time that you need.

If you like, ask your Soul for divine protection.

Step Four:

Remember to stay hydrated. Make sure you’re drinking plenty of fresh water. If you swish it around in your mouth before you swallow, the water will go where it needs to go faster and more efficiently.

Water is your good friend. Especially now!

Step Five:

Consider all that’s going on in your life. A lot is changing.
Use this Circle to gently contemplate the situation so you can gather up your mental, emotional, spiritual and physical resources.

What is the most important thing for you to keep in mind?

Step Six:

Your senses may have gotten knocked out of balance. Reconnect with them and focus on being present. Use them to become aware of your body and what you need right now.

Re-orient yourself in your environment, as it is now.

Take whatever time you need to focus on actions that will bring you back into balance and benefit your well-being. You may want to write ideas down because it’s easy to forget.

Step Seven:

Your energy probably needs some balancing. Go through this short sequence to make repairs and get back in order:

A) Get help clearing your energy field of toxins. Use this Key to relax and mend any energetic wounds that are associated with smoke, chemicals or other negative energies.

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

B) When a person is under extreme stress, their energy can become blocked, scattered, reversed or even shut down completely.

Let this Key help you make corrections and repair any glitches, holes or jagged energies in your system.

Keep relaxing with it until the energy smooths out and you begin to sense the calming energy of your Soul coming through.

C) Keep your wits about you. Clear away dark and heavy thoughts.

Use this Circle to imagine you can infuse your body with light and Love. Doing so will help to remove fear, negativity and darkness from your personal energy.

Dispense with the darkness by sending it to the Light for purification.

D) Bring your attention to your own heart center. Imagine you can connect with your Source and activate the Light that lives within you.
You are never alone.

Step Eight:

Now it’s time to turn down the volume on all the noise from outside. As you breathe deeply, let this Circle help you to adjust the volume and pitch of your senses to just the right level.

Not too high and not too low – just right.

Soon you will be able to hear that calm, gentle voice inside that reminds you about what matters the most to you.

Let yourself be sad if you need to be. Tears are a sign of letting go of shock.

Step Nine:

It also helps to open and close your hands to get more present. Move your fingers and wiggle your toes around. Notice the time and where you are. These actions all help whenever you want to stabilize during a shocking event.

Step Ten:

Now you can let your nervous system calm down too. Slow down and listen to the rhythm of your heart.
You’re feeling better with every breath you take.

Stretch or move around in any way that you instinctively feel you need.

Step Eleven:

Oftentimes, going through a shocking event requires a change in priorities. There may be certain plans, ideas or thoughts that take you back into extreme distress. You can use this symbol for dissolving destructive blueprints to help you identify them and dissolve whatever is distressing you.

Simply imagine that the negative patterns in your mind are like dark clouds or a tangled maze of confusion.

Surrender the darkness into the pure light of the Sun and let the maze dissolve completely.

You’ll know that you’re done when your mind feels clear enough to imagine standing in a beautiful field with the Sun shining down upon you.

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 Twelve:

Before you finish with this formula, take a minute to seal and heal any holes, leaks or passageways that have opened up during this process.
All harmful openings are sealed and healed.

Do that both crossed and uncrossed over the midline of your body.
Your mind and nervous system need closure.

Step Thirteen:

Finally, let your heart recover. This Key helps you balance your heart energy and clear away any residual heaviness. Breathe deeply and take your time.

Feel any remaining heaviness lifting up and out of your heart. Let it radiate out to the Light where it can be transformed.

Take care of yourself and remember that you are loved.

Clear Boundaries

Setting Clear Boundaries for a Busy Mind

What can you do to help yourself when you’re unable to focus on important tasks that really need to get done? Is your line of thinking clear? Has someone or something gotten under your skin and you can’t seem to let go? Clear boundaries may be the answer.

Without strong boundaries, thoughts and emotions can pass back and forth between people without their awareness. When left unchecked, this type of attachment can go underground and contribute to sudden and mysterious illnesses, mental confusion, issues with prosperity or chronic states of overwhelm.

It’s a valuable skill to know how to close the doors or energy pathways at will. This Mind Exercise can help you learn how to consciously set clear boundaries and close off those pathways.

This visual meditation from our SOS Resolve Ebook provides a quick framework for recovering mental balance and refocusing attention. Going through a quick “game” calms the emotional centers of your brain and opens up new neural pathways for self-awareness and clear boundaries, which significantly reduces stress and increases clarity.

Use this Mind Exercise when you are:

~ Feeling scattered or out of sync
~ Easily triggered and need better boundaries
~ Experiencing distress or separation anxiety
~ Worried, agitated or anticipating hardship
~ Feeling pressured or compulsive
~ Unable to meditate or sit still
~ Obsessed with a particular person or situation.

Directions: Confirm this is the best exercise for you with the RESOLVE symbol.

Find a quiet place if possible, where you won’t be disturbed for about twenty minutes. Follow the sequence of symbols while you read their accompanying instructions. Gaze gently at each Circle for about two minutes. A longer or shorter time may be necessary. 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.

Mind Body Integration

The brain and body communicate through different channels when a part of you is crossed over the center of your body. Therefore, you will want to look at each Circle both crossed and uncrossed over the midline of your body.

If you feel resistant or stuck, cross or uncross a hand or foot over the midline of your body and go back to the Circle, breathing patiently. See if your thinking starts to move again. Let negative self-talk go by breathing through it Just breathe deeply and relax.

After you’ve finished going through the entire exercise, give yourself some time to let it integrate. A quiet mind and light heart will change your perspective and make it easier to accomplish your goals.

Step 1. Balance

Begin by consciously breathing in on the count of three and slowly exhaling on the count of five. Do that three or four times while you gaze softly at the Circle. It’s helpful if you can breathe in through your nose.

Continue breathing and bring your awareness to your tailbone.

Step 2. Calm

Keep breathing with your belly soft and relaxed.
Let your shoulders drop.

Gaze softly at this Circle and imagine you can turn down the feelings or thoughts that are turned up too high, just like the volume on a radio.

Step 3. Centering

See if you can gather your awareness and connect it – like all the lines that come together into the center of this symbol.

Imagine you can close up unhealthy energy channels between you and any interference that’s coming from the outside.

Stay with it until you feel more centered with beneficial energy flowing through you.

Step 4. Protection

Now you’re ready to close all holes or harmful pathways that have been left wide open, like too many tabs that have been left open on your computer. It’s time to set this right.

“I close the pathways that lead to distractions, disturbances and interference.”

“All holes are sealed and healed.”

“I follow the direction of my Soul’s protection.”

Step 5. Beauty

Once the pathways are closed, you can shift your attention away from the negative and turn towards more positive input. Breathe in again and exhale slowly.

Let this Chart help you call the most majestic scenes into your mind that you can imagine.

Notice how your body responds and relaxes into the experience.

Step 6. Expansion

Turn your attention to your breathing again and how calming it is.
You can sense the steady rhythm of your heart.
The gentle expansion and contraction of your lungs.
Breathing in and letting go. The space around you is relaxing too.

Step 7. Letting Go

There may be some especially sticky energies that don’t seem to want to let go. Let this Key help you neutralize interfering energies and detach from them.

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

Step 8. Intention

Now you’re ready to gently turn your mind to what’s in your best interests. What are your true priorities?

Slow down and take your time.

Step 9. Decision

Your well-being is important. Are there any new decisions would you like to make about it?
Here’s a few suggestions:

“I decide to be loyal to myself.”
“It’s okay to have strong and clear boundaries.”

“It’s genuinely joyful to have a quiet mind and a light heart.”

Step 10. Resolution

Make a commitment to stay centered and true to yourself.

“I keep my own energy contained for my own protection.”
“I easily eject and deflect harmful thoughts, interference or expectations.”

“I resolve to create and maintain clear boundaries.”

Step 11.. Nourishment

This is a good opportunity to see if there’s any helpful nutrition that would support you. Let Plant Medicine help you tune into natural healing energy.

Are there any vegetables, fruits, herbs, teas or other healing foods that come to mind? Anything else?

Step 12: Grounding and Coherence

Electric Eel will help your energy get organized and grounded. Put both your feet on the floor, place your palms on the inside of your knees and keep breathing until you feel planted.

Then, visualize a wheel spinning out any discordant energy that’s still hanging on and causing problems. When you can release excess energy, it’s much easier to think more clearly and feel like yourself again.

Step 13. Compassion

Imagine with each relaxing new breath that you can fill your heart with renewed understanding and compassion – that includes caring for yourself with clear boundaries.

Your energy is rising up into a lighter space.

Step 14. Completion

Finish by closing any remaining openings to the noise and distractions of the external world.

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

What does your Soul advise you to do now?

Congratulations! Now that you’ve finished, give yourself some time to let it integrate. A quiet mind and light heart changes your perspective and makes it easier to accomplish your goals.

Clearing an Overwhelmed Mind

If you need help clearing an overwhelmed mind, the Intuitive Learning Circle method offers quick and easy support.

This self-care formula for clearing an overwhelmed mind is especially useful for handling day to day stresses, like when you’re feeling:

SOS - Soul Oriented Solutions - Overwhelmed — SOS – Soul Oriented Solutions

Exhausted
Pressured
Confused
Out of balance
Taking on too much
Doing too much
Going too fast and need to slow down.

You are not alone and you can easily get some relief by going through the Overwhelm Help Exercise #4 out of Navigating Loss and Compassion Fatigue from our Soul Oriented Solutions series.

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

Find a quiet place if possible, where you won’t be disturbed for about twenty – thirty minutes. Begin by reading the first message and then gaze gently at the Circle or chart that goes with it for approximately two minutes. A longer or shorter time may be necessary. 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 with the positive affirmations to bring your mind and body back into balance.

Some emotions might come up as well. That also means the Circles are working. If you’re being hard on yourself or afraid you aren’t “doing it right,” give yourself permission to continue relaxing and let go of anything that’s causing you pain or suffering. You could be releasing a mindset that’s caused you quite a bit of suffering for some time now. Resolve to patiently keep breathing and let it go.

Mind Body Integration

For 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.

After you’ve finished going through the entire formula, let yourself rest for a little while. You’re doing very well with such a difficult circumstance. Be sure to take things one at a time.

What’s most important to you?

Emotional Stress and Memory

Can Emotional Stress Affect Your Memory?

Especially when the stakes are high, you need to remember the important things. However, it’s not unusual for people to have temporary memory problems or glitches in their thinking when they’re under a lot of emotional stress, especially if they’re highly sensitive. Why is that and what can be done to help?

If this sounds like you, it could be that you’ve become overwhelmed by the uncertainty of life and the future. Or, you may have gotten ungrounded by the sheer amount of information that you feel you have to process.

You might also be going through experiences like the ones below:

Going through a major emotional transition
Having difficulty processing new information
Feeling weak or mentally exhausted
Disoriented due to grief or sudden loss
Picking up on other peoples pain
Noticing an increase in forgetfulness
Getting confused more easily than usual.

If you are, you’re not alone and it’s possible to get some relief by going through Emotional Stress that Affects Memory from our Soul Oriented Solutions series. The process will help you get a better idea about what’s happening in your case and what you can do to re-orient yourself.

Directions: Start by confirming that this is the best formula for you with the SOS Symbol.

SOS - Soul Oriented Solutions for Emotional Stress — SOS Symbol

Next, read the directions in each step and then gaze softly at its accompanying Circle for several minutes. Going slower gets better results.

Give yourself permission to look at the Circles in any way or from any angle that you like. All you have to do is stay relaxed. If you’re drawn to focus on the center of a Circle, great! There is no wrong way to view them.

If you come up with a message, an image or instinctively want to trace over the lines, let your imagination guide you. A playful approach reduces stress and opens up possibilities so you can look at your situation from different perspectives.

Developing intuition in this way enhances your personal growth and can keep those creative juices flowing for better mind function.

Caution: the use of this exercise is not intended take the place of appropriate medical and/or psychiatric care. If you are having prolonged or increasing bouts of memory loss, seek the appropriate medical help.

Mind Body Integration

For 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!

Before you begin, it helps to know that there are new channels of life force available in the New Paradigm that will help us ADAPT to all the changes going on.

Keep this symbol handy to help you open up to generative life force and close down life-destructive energy channels from the past. That integration also includes new communication channels that will help us connect with each other in far more life affirming ways.

By contemplating Divine Protection, you’ll be able to intentionally close down harmful channels and open up to the generative life force (chi) that has become available to us.

Transitioning out of the energy channels of the Piscean Age (water) into the new energy channels of the Aquarian Age (air) has been a mysterious source of disfunction and instability for most everyone on one level or another. This symbol is a gift from Reiki that provides an interface to assist us in making the functional transition.

The chakras in particular benefit from “installing” it energetically. At any point during this exercise, you may use it to improve energy flow and integration.

Directions: As you gaze softly at the symbol, Imagine you can close up unhealthy energy channels between you and any interference that’s coming from the outside. Stay with it until you feel more centered with beneficial life force flowing through you.

Then, see if you can gather your awareness and connect it – like all the lines that come together into the center of this symbol.

The sooner we can allow our minds and mental processes adapt to these new energies, the sooner we’ll be able to access new ideas and solutions for our mental, emotional and physical health.

Now you’re ready to go through the exercise…

Emotional Stress That Affects Memory ~

How Are You Experiencing Disorientation?

1. We’re going to look at several possible reasons why emotional stress could effect your memory. One reason could be that you’re disoriented due to a sudden recent change. Or, you might be tuning into destructive energies in your environment, rather than beneficial energies. That includes picking up on other people’s emotional states. Another possibility could be that you’ve been exposed to an overwhelming amount of information, chemicals or static energy. It helps to be aware of what’s involved.

Let Stingray Medicine help you gather up any important information about your experience. Your unconscious mind knows what’s pertinent and what’s not.

You might want to jot down any impressions you get. However, don’t be surprised if nothing definite comes to you. There may not be any words because the unconscious mind is not linear.

Just make note of what your experience is for now.

What is a Clear Intention That will Help?

2. To help bring your body, mind and Soul into a cooperative focus, establish a simple and clear intention for this exercise:

“I improve my brain function and mental acuity which includes thought, senses, vision and hearing.”

Go ahead and meditate on the center open space of this chart with that intention in mind. It may help to bring the energy in towards the center. Breathe deeply and relax. Don’t try to make anything happen. A relaxed mind will lead you to a more relaxed body!

When the energy of the chart balances out, you’re ready to move onto the next step.

What Would You Like to Shine Light On?

3. The pineal gland is an important part of your brain because of its main function of regulating light and darkness through the production and secretion of melatonin. In addition, the pineal contains light-sensitive cells that control your equilibrium through the circadian cycle of sleep and wakefulness.
Melatonin also supports healthy memory function and reproductive cycles.

Relax and breathe for a minute or two and let this Chakra Key help you clear toxins from your pineal gland so that your natural rhythms and cycles can come into better balance.

Utilize Divine Protection to install improved access to generative life force.

Does It Feel Like Your Energy is Struggling?

4. Emotional stress can cause significant internal and external changes. Sudden reversals, blockages and changes in momentum can cause your energy to react in unusual ways.

You might also have an awareness of rough or reversed energies around you.

Relax with this Correction Key for a few minutes until things smooth out and you can begin to feel the calming energy of your Soul coming through. If you need to use it again later, feel free to do so.
Be sure to do that both crossed and uncrossed over the midline of your body.

How Would You Like to Feel?

5. The hypothalamus is a part of your brain that regulates homeostasis. Through it, you have the ability to maintain inner balance and a calm state of mind. It also regulates a variety of functions including your physical development, digestive health and metabolism.

What kind of support would you like with those things?

Allow this Chakra Key to help you clear and balance your hypothalamus.

What Would You Like to Remember?

6. The hippocampus is actually two structures located on either side of the temporal lobe that are involved with memory development, verbal, spacial and directional skills.

Repeat what you just did in the previous steps. Relax and breathe while you gaze at this Chakra Key to clear out toxins and bring both areas of your hippocampus into balance.

Once the energy has calmed down, check in with these questions:

“Is there something I’ve forgotten that’s important? More than one?”
“Is there something I need to forget?”

Remembering too many things can also cause stress. Make a note of what comes to you and continue with your mind exercise.

What Would Bring You More Ease?

7. There’s another part of your brain function that taps into the wisdom of your Soul. Some call it the Third Eye Chakra. Through it, the pineal, hippocampus and hypothalamus can connect and work together to enhance learning and create coherent thoughts. Intuition and common sense can then blossom and communicate meaningful insights to your Heart Center.

Keep relaxed and gaze softly at the Reiki Chakra Key with each affirmation:

“My common sense and intuition are working together.”

“I receive meaningful insights about my situation.”
“My mind helps me to reduce stress and integrate joy into my life.”

What Needs to Get Connected?

8. Starlight Medicine helps you repair the subtle hara lines that connect your chakras, like a beautiful web of Light. Keep relaxed and gaze softly at the Circle with each affirmation:

“My mind and body are connected and balanced to create improved mental acuity and brain function.”

“I improve my comprehension and understanding.”
“I connect with solutions.”

What Would Support You?

9. It’s possible that you’re dehydrated or not getting the right nutrition. While you gently focus on this Circle, ask yourself:

“Is there something I could eat or drink that would help me?”
“Is there something I’m eating or drinking too much of?”

Is There Something That You Need To Let Go Of?

10. If there is, let Chigger Medicine help you open up and let it go.

Just keep letting go and release all that emotional stress.
See yourself relaxing under an afternoon Sun.
Take all the time you like. It’s okay to let go and rest.
Move around if you need to.

What Would Genuinely Help Your Emotional Stress?

11. Is there something else that you could do to help your mental / emotional stress?
Is there something you’re doing that would be best to stop or slow down with?
Use Mermaid Medicine to consider what helpful actions you could take to genuinely improve your situation.

Is there anything you could do or stop doing that would be genuinely helpful to others?

What Is Your heart Saying?

12. It could be that things are just moving too fast and your mind is trying to keep up. Take a moment to slow down and tune into your Heart Center.

Bring it into balance first.

Once you feel balanced and connected, ask yourself:

“What is my Heart Center telling me?”
“Am I worried about something (physical, financial, family issue, etc)?”
“What have I been doing? Has that helped? What do I feel?”

If you need to, go back to Step 8 and connect your Heart Chakra with Your Third Eye Chakra. Then, make sure they both have their Divine Protection filters.

How Will Life Be Better Without This Emotional Stress?

13. Your physical body is the foundation for your vitality and your instinct to take care of yourself. Clearing the energy around the Root Chakra in your lower body, will give you strength and support to make necessary changes.

“I strengthen my connection to my physical health.”

Once you feel stronger, ask yourself:

“What, if anything, am I forgetting about my physical health?
“Is there something I need to remember?”
“Do I need to install Divine Protection in my Root Chakra?”

If you need to go back to Step 8 and connect with your other chakras, do that now.

What Would Keep You Grounded?

14. A strong connection to the Earth through your Earth Chakra gives you support to make the necessary changes and stay balanced at the same time. Put both feet on the floor to help you ground.
If needed, go back to Step 8 and connect with your other chakras.
Take whatever time you need.

Once you’re centered and grounded, ask yourself:

“What do I need remember?
“Do I need to change anything?”
“Do I have the connections and resources I need to resolve this stress?”
“What would be involved? Is anything missing?”

Ask For Blessings On Your Life Path.

15. Finish by balancing out your Life Path Chakras. They help you stay on your own path and tune into your own karma and the promptings of your Soul – a very important thing to remember!

“I open up to my potential and stay positive.”

“I stay true to my Soul’s path.”

You may want to sit with this for awhile or soak in a hot bath with Epsom salts or Sea Salt to detox.
Make a plan to exercise to take a relaxing walk out in Nature once you feel ready. Releasing emotional stress takes patience, time and space.
