Oyster Medicine

Allow Yourself to Receive with Oyster Medicine

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

Oyster Medicine from Gifts from the Rainforest21. Oyster Medicine – the oyster receives without judgment. When we openly receive life, we release effort and struggle.

What are you willing to receive?

Is that in your best interest?

Are you in the best position to receive blessings?

Is it time to discharge an irritant?

Healing Action: Get present and open your heart to receptivity. Accept the benefits of your kind actions and ability to benefit from difficult circumstances.


The Pearl of Great Price

To openly receive is something that the
small mind has great difficulty doing.
It tries to force things to happen –
to control outcomes and future events.
It tries and tries, but never succeeds.
The Oyster never tries to do anything, it just exists.
Because it exists, it has no need to resist.
Since it has no need to resist,
it openly receives without judgement
about whether something is good or bad,
right or wrong, wanted or unwanted.
If a grain of sand is washed into its home,
it uses the irritation to create a pearl.
We would be wise to follow the Oyster’s lead.
Accept the events in your life
and use them to nourish the heart and Soul.

Your ego is dominating the situation by limiting what you’re willing to receive. It’s trying to hide flawed reasoning and is busy thinking up excuses. Step away from that reaction so that you can allow something better to come in.

Gaze gently at Oyster’s Circle and ask your Soul: “What am I willing to receive in this situation? Can I open to more?” Clarify the situation by answering, “What is the resistance about?”

Conversely, it could be time to stop tolerating an irritant and expel it from your personal space. Not everything is worth keeping. Let go of the struggle. Accept what you’ve learned from the situation and let it go.

Are you denying or blocking positive change? If so, It’s time to accept yourself and the situation as it really is. The sooner you release your denial, the sooner your difficulties will end. 

Examine your attitudes and beliefs, especially those you feel justified in having. As you look at the Circle, ask your heart, “What attitude or belief is causing me trouble? What am I not accepting?”

Then ask, “What would help me be more open and receptive in this situation?”

Follow your own advice and you will experience profound personal changes taking place.

Tree Sloth Medicine

Slow Down and Confirm Your Priorities with Tree Sloth Medicine

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

Sloth Medicine from Gifts from the Rainforest

23. Sloth Medicine – the tree sloth peers out into the jungle with clarity of vision and moves very slowly, if at all. His advice is to watch and wait for clarity before taking action.

Are you trying to do too much at one time?

Are you clear about what your true priorities are?

Is there so much going on that you can’t follow it all?  If so, what will help?

Healing Action: Slow down. Narrow your focus. Be more selective. Make some priorities for yourself. Know what you want before making your move.


The Eye of Truth

The sloth lives quietly in his tree
watching the world around him.
He rarely moves unless he has something
very specific he wants to accomplish.
The birds and monkeys chatter endlessly
and rush about doing their daily business.
But this is not sloth’s way.
To him, all that screeching and squawking
and rushing around
is a distraction to clear thinking.
His motto is:
“Say what you mean and mean what you say.
Know your intention and brighten your day.
One thought at a time will make a soul wise.
When looking for truth, I use my own eyes.”

It’s time to slow down and focus your energies on what you want to accomplish. Turn your attention 100% towards a clear intention. This is not the time for multi-tasking. If you have too many things going on, you won’t be able to keep track of what’s really important, and something really important is happening in this situation. Save yourself future regrets and resentments by paying attention now.
You may be in too much of a hurry to properly appreciate some very insightful information that’s coming your way. Slow down.
Choose a situation that seems overly complicated and “all balled up.” Instead of hardening your mind to try and fix or figure things out, consciously soften your thoughts, unfurl your brow and drop your shoulders. Allow the ball you see in your mind to unwind like a ball of string.
If your mind is very stubborn, the image of your situation may stay in a ball for a while. Just keep breathing deeply into your belly while you wait for the string to appear. Eventually, the ball will begin to move around. Continue until you see a straight line in your mind. Then, patiently wait for solutions to appear. Remember that every situation is a product of cause and effect. By slowing down and letting your mind untangle, a way forward can be found.
Or
Your mind keeps jumping ahead and that’s preventing you from finishing your task. Slow down and focus on one thing at a time.
Or
Your communication with others will benefit now by being especially clear and direct. It may be that others are in too much of a hurry to hear you. Get it in writing and insist on their signature. This particular situation strongly affects your well-being. If they are unwilling, it may be time to re-evaluate the relationship.

Alligator Medicine

Reclaim Personal Power Through Alligator Medicine

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

Alligator Medicine from Gifts from the Rainforest

3. Alligator Medicine – peers out from the darkest swamp to scare you into submission. If you can stop buying into the fear tactics of the personal and collective ego, you can move forward freely with resolve and confidence.

Ask: Are your thoughts negative, blocked or stuck in critical judgement?

If so, how is your ego controlling you? What would help you to do the right thing?

Healing Action: : Stop fueling negativity and dissolve your fears. Let go of stories from the past. Decide that your Soul is in charge of what you do now.


Escape From Jaws

The alligator signals hidden danger.
Someone or something is getting
in the way of your progress.
Ask yourself: “Where is this cruelty coming from?”
Reclaim your self-worth.
Release the grip of fear over your mind.
Stop letting situations and people
control your actions.
Once you do, you will be free
to follow your heart enthusiastically.
Now is a time for growth,
new approaches,
and fresh ideas.

Someone’s critical mind wants to block true guidance from your Soul. Is it yours or someone else’s? It could be an external influence, but most likely it’s being fed by your own internal criticism that takes form through habitual patterns of self-hate, second guessing, self-doubt, or just plain contrariness. The inner critic doesn’t really care where an idea comes from or whether it’s helpful or not – it just wants to throw a wrench into your thinking.

When Alligator medicine shows up, you can bet that some kind of cruel mental / emotional agenda is trying to take you over and interfere with your plans. You are encouraged to let it go before you stop yourself from doing the right thing – again.
Perhaps in the past you haven’t believed that anyone was there for you. You might even have felt that others were out to get you. If that’s the case, it’s now time to respond differently. Your heart is beckoning you to overcome your fear of people, situations or circumstances and see the Love that is there. If you use this opportunity to develop genuine objectivity through hope and faith, rather than criticism, true Soul guidance can make its way to you.
Or
Perhaps you’ve unconsciously given others permission to harm you out of apathy for your own well-being. You might also examine if you have allowed someone to impatiently demand unrealistic perfection out of you. You can put an end to that behavior now. Move those critical voices to the side and stop fueling them. Ask for help from someone who is objective and trustworthy. Choose to be around kindness and be kind in return. You may need help in learning how to do this.
Look into Alligator’s Circle and ask your heart: “Who or what do I need to put behind me?”
When you give it a chance, cruelty fades away in the face of kindness.

If you’re reading this and none of it rings a bell, congratulations! You have overcome a major ego attachment. Go out and celebrate!

Befriending Animal Spirits

Messages from the Animal Spirits

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

Animal Spirits from Gifts from the Rainforest1. Animal Spirits – the animals are our partners in creating an abundant and peaceful life.

By observing their behavior and the role they play in their environment, we can learn to adapt and make the most of the circumstances we find ourselves in.

Ask: What do you need to adapt to in your situation? 

What are the animals in your life communicating to you?

Healing Action: It’s time to take ownership over your communications. Adapt to your circumstances. Befriend the animal world and your own animal nature. 


Invoking the Animal Spirits

Long ago in the Garden of Eden
the animals walked with us in peace and cooperation.
We were given healthy dominion over them,
and prosperity was there for all.
Much of the civilized world has forgotten
this ancient partnership, yet the animals still remember.
We can remember too.
Listen.
Watch.
Animal messages are everywhere.
Ask that the animal spirits teach, assist, and guide us
in all aspects of our lives so that we may move forward
into the abundant lives we were created for.

Animal medicine indicates that better communication will improve the situation you are dealing with now. Scattered or disjointed communication, whether written or verbal, comes out of scattered and disjointed thinking. It’s time to simplify and get to the bare truth of the matter.
Or
You may be ignoring subtle forms of communication, such as body language or events that keep repeating themselves. Missed communication is probably holding up the works somewhere. Consider the possibility that your priorities might be out of order.
Examine the following steps to effective communication. If any step is missing in regard to your current circumstance, look at the Circle to help you gain more clarity and get back on track.

1. Form a clear idea.
2. Focus your ability to focus on that idea without distractions.
3. Find the purpose – what you want to accomplish with this idea.
4. Be flexible to expand or refine the idea.
5. Be able to visualize the finished product or result.
6. Prioritize what is important about the idea and its purpose.
7. Make a decision to do it or not.
8. Follow through on the decision.
9. Achieve a satisfactory finished product.
10. Accept the responsibility for the communication.

Successful communication is the essence of being able to manifest your dreams in physical reality. Be aware that people will now listen to you with greater respect and cooperation.
Or
If you are hurting, especially from matters of the heart or even PTSD, working with animals or studying them would hold unusually potent healing.

Chigger Medicine

Stop Internalizing Negativity with Chigger Medicine

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

Chigger Medicine from Gifts from the Rainforest29. Chigger – chigger medicine reminds us to detach from whatever’s irritating us. When we can stop fighting with the negativity or attitudes of others, there’s nothing left to feed on.

Are you taking things personally?

Is something getting under your skin?

If so, what might help?

Healing Action: Decide that your reactions matter. Reject irritations without feeding the anger. Stop internalizing negativity, especially when it isn’t really about you.


Growing A Thick Skin

Chiggers are mites that dig under the skin and lay eggs.
They irritate and cause you to itch voraciously.
Unfortunately, the more you scratch –
the more they spread and the worse it gets.
Parasites of this sort come in many forms:
the gossiping neighbor next door,
the rebellious child,
the critical boss,
and the nagging mate.
It’s as if all they want is to get under your skin.
Anger and apathy only keeps the fire burning.
The way to handle parasitic people is to
cut them off from their fuel supply –
detach from your emotions.
Be firm, be courteous, agree with them
and hand them back their problems.
Without resistance, there’s nothing left for them to feed on.

Further Exploration into Chigger Medicine:

You are very easily irritated by your current circumstance. Irritation is like a fire that causes your energy to react destructively, giving you an excuse to lash out by blaming, arguing, gossiping or feeling sorry for yourself. It would be advisable for you to transform your irritation into an energy that will fuel your dreams instead of destroying them.

Chigger Medicine - Animal Totems
Chigger Medicine

Learn to be more quiet and peaceful when you fall out of balance. Stop whatever you are doing and take a deep breath. Take several, in fact. Look at Chigger’s Circle and ask your heart: “What is really irritating me about this?”

Then, stop focusing on the feeling of irritation and neutralize your energy as much as possible. Don’t let yourself get caught up in trying make things work the way you think they should. The time isn’t right to engage in a fight. It’s time to disengage from the need to be right.
Or
Irritations that return over and over again are there to remind you that something is a problem. Release any conditioning or agreements you may have to ignore the message or unknowingly internalize negativity. In this case, it’s worth it to just start writing or expressing whatever comes into your head. Don’t stop the flow of thoughts until they’re complete. More questions or irritations may come to the surface. Keep expressing yourself until you get to the bottom of what’s really burning you up.

If you can get to the place where you can finally accept and forgive, you’ll be able to let it go. Imagine that you can open yourself up and expel whatever is bugging you by sending that irritation up to the Light for transformation.

Deflect Projections and Reflect the Positive with Parrot Medicine

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

Parrot Medicine from Gifts from the Rainforest

18. Parrot Medicine – knows how to handle inflammatory remarks and condemnation. By remaining calm in the face of emotional outbursts, we develop mastery over our minds and our reactions.

Is someone trying to get a reaction out of you?

Are you caught in a maze of projections?

Are you stuck on judgement and criticism? If so, what would help?

Healing Action: Stop taking things personally. Take control of your reactions. Get out of the way. Deflect interference from others by proactively rejecting their projections.


Parrot Wisdom

The wise parrot teaches us the best way to handle
inflammatory remarks and condemnation.
She simply looks us in the eye
and repeats back what we say word for word,
without emotion, judgement or attack.
When you find yourself in a situation
filled with vengeance, fear or victimization,
do not engage it, otherwise you will fuel it.
Remain objective and mirror back what is said
with compassion, truth and justice.
As humans, we are manipulated
and give away our power through our emotions.
Remain calm and learn from Parrot
by reflecting only the goodness and beauty
of your surroundings.

Parrot Medicine - Animal Totems
Parrot Medicine

You are taking what someone has said or done personally. Have you considered the possibility that your reaction was all they really wanted in the first place? What would happen if you didn’t respond the way they are expecting you to? What if you smiled or laughed or did nothing at all? You might be surprised at how fast they disappear or change their tune.
Or
Are you caught in an endless nightmare or repeating arguments? Instead of being paranoid or reactive, try being more proactive. Use Parrot’s Circle to imagine that the situation is like being in a maze or house of mirrors. Ask if there are particular emotions or conflicts that your mind is wrestling with. Once you have the mental construct or trap, release your agreement to perpetuate it. Then, consciously shatter the mirrors and deconstruct the trap. Clear it all away till there’s nothing left of it.
Or
You are allowing yourself to be victimized by someone else’s critical mind. Try going through these steps:

  1. Ask your heart, “What is this person showing me about myself that I don’t like?”
  2. If you feel you’re being criticized, ask, “What is really going on?”
  3. Notice that what you’re making up about about this interaction is probably worse than what is actually happening.
  4. Ask the Circle for advice about how to best de-escalate the situation.

Close the door on interference, judgement and criticism. Shatter the projections and use your new perspective to make necessary changes in your plans so that you’re effectively protected.

Are your decisions unclear? Is your timing  off? What direction are you going? Are you stuck?

What do you think would help?

Healing Action: Let your spirit guide you rather than your ego. Free your mind of old, limiting decisions. Be willing to adapt. Trust your Soul to guide you on your new path.


The Llama’s Journey South

There is a proper position for new beginnings
that requires humility and trust in the Soul.
Just as the adventurer must trust her Llama
on the journey to the mountain tops.
Make clear and conscious decisions
about this new beginning.
There are many things that are unknown
because this is an entirely new path.
Accept what you don’t know
and discipline your mind firmly and consistently.
This will help you on your journey.
The time is ripe for action.
A new cycle is beginning –
Infuse it with trust, enthusiasm
and a dedicated devotion to life.

Further Exploration into Llama Medicine:

Llama Medicine - Animal Totems
Llama Medicine

Your heart is asking you to be open to the great unknown, yet you are finding it difficult to take a chance and give your all to your hearts desire. Perhaps the shock of past events has deterred you from making a commitment because your ego is afraid that what happened before will happen again. However, you can make a more conscious choice through the help of your Soul, rather than your critical mind.

Ask Llama’s Circle, “What needs to happen?” 

Free yourself of domineering, limited beliefs. Be determined and decide to change by nurturing your connection with Soul. Use your common sense, stay alert and follow your truth. Possibilities are always available to those who follow their heart and Soul. 

If you’re having trouble making a decision, confer with Llama’s Circle and contemplate your situation for some navigational advice: 

1) Knowing where you genuinely want to wind up is a key factor in any journey. It’s not just what you want to get away from. Ask your Soul, “Where do I really want to go? What kind of person do I want to be on the way and once I get there?”

2) Once you have answers, follow up with, “Am I heading in the right direction for this to happen or am I confused in some way?” If you need help, use the Circle to imagine you can gently turn the gears in your mind around so they’re moving all together in a forward moving, coordinated direction. If you feel stuck, some gears may not belong in there at all! Unscrew them and pull them out completely.

3) Now you can explore the possibilities with greater confidence. Go through the different options asking: “To get there, what do I need to do?” What decision(s) do I need to make?” “Is this or that option beneficial?” or “What’s next?”  Get help from other Helpers if needed (1 – 58)

4) When an affirmative answer comes back, investigate further by asking “When is the best timing for this to happen?” 

Use whatever information you get to help you navigate your journey.

Ant Medicine from the North

Choose the Direction of Freedom with Ant Medicine

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

Ant Medicine from Gifts From the Rainforest10. Amazon Ant medicine exposes how easily our minds can be intruded upon by fear, control, intolerance and manipulation to block the natural flow of Life.

Are you being blocked, controlled or manipulated?

Is something triggering a fear reaction?

If so, can you tell what’s happening and how to set it right?

Healing Action: Check your environment for disruptive frequencies. Free yourself by letting go of fear and disentangling from all that tries to control you.


Northern Ant Wars

Beware the warlike mind
that lives through control and manipulation.
It’s like an Amazon Ant
who intrudes upon its neighbors
and forces them to work as slaves.
It seeks to dominate and oppress.
The healthy spiritual mind
aligns itself with True North –
the direction of freedom and respect.
Release attitudes and thoughts that are
unmerciful, vengeful and full of false pride.
Let go of all cords that are connected to others
out of pain, pity or disdain.
Healthy boundaries breed self-respect
and respect for others.

Further Exploration into Amazonian Ant Medicine:

Amazon Ant
Amazonian Ant

The medicine of Amazon Ant wants you to consider the true nature of freedom and whether or not you’re allowing it. Do you have trouble exercising free agency and taking beneficial actions for yourself without allowing others to interfere? If so, it’s likely that trauma from the past is dominating your behavior.

Whenever controlling attitudes and behavior patterns are intruding on your freedom, that’s your cue to stop buying into intrusive thoughts or intentions others may have for you and let go of your own prejudices.

Remember, a domineering mind puts just as much pressure on itself as it does on others. You could be caught in the illusion of separateness; feeling you’re alone and powerless. Reclaim your peace of mind by letting go and allowing others their own free will and autonomy. When you back off and respect their decisions, the natural law of Cause and Effect can come in and restore balance.
Or
You may be caught in an entangled relationship where one or both parties assume they couldn’t possibly exist without the other. Because of this misconception, Free Will is being blocked and twisted by and unconscious need for control.

It’s time to choose for yourself, freely and without attachment. To help you disentangle, meditate on Ant’s Circle. Ask these questions and wait for a reply:

  1. “What agreement is keeping me stuck?” Release agreements to be manipulated in that way.
  2.  “Am I feeling sorry for someone or holding them in judgement?” Make sure you’re seeing things with an eye on reciprocity. In other words, is whatever you’re putting out something you would like to receive?
  3.  “How am I connecting with others?” Let go of fixations or inner conflicts.
  4.  ”How can I let go of fear?” Reclaim your power by reconnecting with your Soul.

It may a while to work through this, however, once you do, the information will help change your behavior and put you back into balance with the Circle of Life.

Healing Emotional Shock

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

Healing Emotional ShockThe 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. 

Note: If you are going through a serious physical disruption currently in your life, please go to Resolving Shock from Traumatic Events.

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

  • Feeling stuck, numb, lost or helpless
  • Unable to rest or relax
  • Caught in a blank or fixed state of mind
  • Waking up at night worried, with obsessive thoughts
  • Reliving painful experiences
  • Alternately feeling trapped and shattered.

The following mind exercise uses the Intuitive Learning Circle method for healing emotional shock ~

Sometimes people who’ve just received bad news or experienced a traumatic event will tell you that they’re fine and not to worry about 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

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 mind exercise step by step to help you access your own innate healing abilities and bring yourself back into balance.

Simply follow the directions and see if you can free up some of the confusion and conflict that comes from shock. Here’s an example of how it works. Simply gaze softly at the Circle while you contemplate each of these positive affirmations:

“I reclaim and balance my five senses.”

“I focus them to be present and aware of my body.”

“I use them to become aware of my environment and what’s important to me right now.”

“I focus on life affirming actions that benefit my well-being and happiness.”

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 and Confusion

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 conflict or painful experience that’s blocking your way. If your mind is blank, relax into 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, sit back and take a couple more deep breaths. Imagine that the darkness or heaviness is 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 or conflicts that you can do the same with.

Step Two:

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

As you breathe deeply, let this Circle help you to adjust the volume and pitch of your senses to just the right level for you.

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

“I see things as they really are. My senses are balanced. I reconnect with what matters the most.”

Step Three:

When a person is recovering from emotional shock, their energy may express some instability like being scattered, reversed or even shut down completely. Let this Key help you make corrections and 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 beginning to come through.

 

Step Four:

If your gut feels tight or uncomfortable, use this Reiki Chakra Key for your solar plexus 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 it relax as you say to yourself:

“It’s safe. I feel safe and more relaxed with every breath.”

Step Five:

Sometimes a person who’s had 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 to consciously bring yourself back into your body.

“I am at home in my center. I am inside myself.”

You can open and close your hands. Move your fingers and wiggle your toes around. Notice the time and where you are. These actions all help you recover from emotional shock.

Step Six:

Make sure that you’re no longer planted in that old experience, whatever it was. Let this Circle unearth old agreements, assumptions or conditioning that’s sucking you back into the past or holding you down.

“I uproot whatever is confusing me. I decide to get grounded in what’s true. The Earth supports me.”

There may be a lot, so take all the time you need to free yourself.

Step Seven:

Oftentimes, healing emotional shock and confusion requires a change in priorities. There may be certain plans, ideas or habitual patterns that are no longer relevant or constructive. Certain roles 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 the negative patterns in your mind are like heavy clouds or a jumbled maze of 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: 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 Eight:

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

As you gaze at the Circle, imagine harmful leaks and openings are closing as if they were never there.

“All holes are healed and sealed.”

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

 

Step Nine:

Make sure you aren’t getting sucked up into any old habits or energy drains.

“I deconstruct old habits that cause me harm.”

“I close up any energy drains so that I may recover my strength.”  

“I ask for the void to be filled in with healthy, life affirming energy.”

 

Step Ten:

Now, it’s important to make sure you’re grounded. Without proper grounding, you could get frantic, distracted and confused. That’s not what you want. What you decide to do matters now more than ever!

Let this Circle for grounding firmly on Mother Earth help you. Place both feet on the ground and your hands on each knee while you use these affirmations:

“I decide to get grounded.”
“My energy is getting coherent and the Earth supports me.”

Again, take all the time you need with this.

 

Step Eleven:

Bring your attention to the space that surrounds your body.

“I strengthen and repair my auras for greater protection.”

“I feel protected in my body and safe in my own space.”

Step Twelve.

To finish this exercise, let your heart recover. This Circle will help you to balance your heart energy and clear away any residual heaviness. Breathe deeply and take your time.

“I feel the heaviness lifting up out of my heart.”

“I let it go and send it to the Sun where it can be transformed.”

“I have the strength and resilience to shine my light.”

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