IT'S IN RELAXATION THAT HEALING HAPPENS
In order for the body to have the space to heal it needs to reach a state of relaxation. It is essential for us to acknowledge how important it is to take the time to create that space for that to happen. The message the body is receiving when we deliberately make that space, is that we care about it. How do we do that? We take the time to relax fully. Fully meaning, every cell in the body can feel the intention of well being with which it is being taken care of. We create ease and balance with compassion and love for the bodies which carry us through life. It is in that relaxation that healing happens. A tense body will have a vey difficult time healing. Ignoring that tension sends a signal of indifference for the body. Establish a relationship with your mind and body in which they support each other. Let the thoughts that you send to your body be thoughts of caring with intentions of love and compassion. Nurture your body. Establish gratitude in your thoughts toward your body. Love your body unconditionally. Your body will respond in kind. So how do we reach this state of relaxation? In the next few weeks we will be talking in detail about how to do that. In the meantime you can listen to any of the guided meditations on my website to get a glimpse. Simply sit comfortably, close your eyes and listen. Remember we are not a mind and a body. We are a mindbody. As you listen let both become one in balance, ease and harmony.
LET'S TALK ABOUT HEALING
When we're sick, we have to realize we are in survival mode. What does survival mode mean? It means that you are doing everything to support your mind and body. You are making sure that your environment- what you eat, what you do, what you listen to, who you surround yourself by- is supporting you and you are supporting it. That it's a synergistic experience. That's what life is; giving and receiving. You have to make sure that when giving you are giving from your heart. If you're not feeling it in your heart, forget it. We deplete our energy when we are just going through the motions without an intention that comes from the heart. The moment you start doing things that fill your heart, what happens in the body is that every cell in the body starts feeling that. Your emotions become positive emotions. Your thoughts become positive thoughts. How do we heal? That's how we heal. That's how we bring balance to the mind and body. We bring love. We bring compassion. Not just for us but for others as well, because its a synergistic experience. What we give is what we receive. When we come from a place of compassion and what we do and what we say is truly what we mean, it will always create a space of love. What will happen is that you will be creating harmony and balance. The body starts responding to that and you go from a state of dis-ease to a state of ease. The body wants to be healthy. We have to remember that. We need to understand how important it is to pay attention to creating a loving, harmonious, balanced life that supports us. We need to understand what a HUGE effect our environment has on us. It's important for our survival.
