Healing Using Awareness

How strange that our feelings, experiences, perceptions, and actions are all energies we hold within ourselves until we fully process, or heal, and resolve them. That our dysfunctions too are present as energies within us. At least this used to be strange to me. Now it seems like daily care, daily maintenance. Like brushing my teeth.

I am holding my awareness on a pattern of seeking validation or acknowledgement, or praise, or acceptance from the outside world. It originates behind me, geographically behind my spine in a place that is a little challenging to reach even with awareness. My ego definitely does not want to see that. Funny how the energies seem to match the physical spatial abilities. To repress something is a literal, actual action that compacts energy that sits there, stagnant, until it is allowed to surface, processed, and released.

I hold my awareness on what feels to be a moving mass. It shifts and pieces start to melt away> I breathe or rather softly blow Love into the edges of the mass, and this also causes pieces to fall off, and I feel those pieces return to my core energetic self. As I continue to hold awareness, and send Love, the energies continue to shift with more pieces melting off, and returning to my core.

It is not an overnight process. All our years of conditioning, all of our experiences are in us and anything that was not fully processed and release remains as stagnant energy. And, because most people start this work as adults, there is a minimum of twenty years of “stuff” to clear out. And at some point we do move beyond it.

And yet there are amazing tools that we innately hold that go very deep. The ability to clear out an energy goes deeper than therapy (tho not judging therapy which certainly has its purpose and has benefitted many) and truly shifts how we feel in ourselves, authentically clearing out our inner world so that we have a clearer, more enjoyable, literally lighter experience.

Yep, we are equipped with the tools to heal, and clear ourselves at deep levels. We can start with using our awareness to sense how our physical body feels. Notice where it feels tight, or full, or loose. Notice whether our fingers feel nimble, or perhaps tired. How about our feet? Our arms, legs, torso? We can at first notice each part in awareness, but as we continue to hold our awareness our awareness skills grow. Yep, if we hold awareness on parts of our physical body we can begin to clearly see where we feel healthy, and where things feel off. If we continue to hold our awareness at any point on or in our physical body (or any place in our emotional bodies), our awareness alone will start to process the energies that are present and shift them into greater health, greater well-being. Some of us tend to store emotional stuff in our physical bodies, and simply by holding our awareness on these parts we can begin to process and release them. We can also use our awareness to “hold” our emotional energies until they shift, soften, and dissolve and reintegrate. This is called “Eating the Issue”.

Just one of many tools, using our Awareness to hold, process, and release/reassimilate energies is something we can do at any time. We may have a pattern of feeling like we are in financial lack. With our awareness we can sense how these energies feel in our physical, emotional and energetic bodies, and by holding our awareness there we can truly shift those energies. As we continue to do these processes we will find our experience in the outer world shift. If we have been focusing on money we may find we receive some extra financial abundance. If we are focusing our awareness on issues related to relationship, we are likely to find that dynamics in our relationships shift.

As we continue to clear out our systems, our experience in life changes. We become less emotionally charged about things, less bothered. We are able to be more present and more actively engaged in our present, with more enjoyable, more fulfilling experiences. And what a great thing that is!
