Clearing Your Body Mind & Spirit

What would self-care look like for you?

Are your body, mind or spirit speaking to you through signs & symptoms, asking for attention?

This is a period of immense change – on a global but also on a personal level.

As the world shifts, so do we. Our consciousness is ascending. Our vibration is rising. And amidst the celebration and resistance, there are growing pains.

I believe that our main job at this time is to be as aligned as we possibly can with our Higher Selves. This requires awareness and inspired action.

The more we take care of our own health, happiness and inner peace, the more we affect the health, happiness and peace on the entire planet.

“What would love do now?”

This is not only a question we need to ask in our interactions with others and the planet, but in our relationship and care for ourselves.

So I ask again, what are your body, mind & spirit asking of you? What would a loving follow-through be for you?

Let me share a bit of my recent story in case it inspires ideas for your own self-love project.

After a challenging summer, a few patches of eczema on my ankles had me questioning my state of mind & physical health. I thought I’d dealt well with the stress, but maybe not.

Perhaps it was a reaction to the chlorine in our local outdoor pool, which seemed particularly strong this year. But months after stopping my swims, the itch and scaling hadn’t stopped.

My acupuncturist had mentioned that my chi (energy flow) had slowed down. It was time to do even more than I already did in my preventative health routines.

I upped my body treatments – massage, acupuncture, daily skin brushing, nature walks, yoga, dancing on my mini-trampoline, even healthier eating and cutting out dairy.

When I returned from a fabulous 3-week trip to Ontario & Quebec with my father, I was kept awake with a clear message that the memory-foam pad on top of my mattress was off-gassing and toxic. I’d had that message a few times over the 8 years in my current house, but taking it away had been so uncomfortable, I’d put it back on. This time, I got rid of it and invested in a healthy natural one guaranteed not to off-gas. So often we get too comfortable with something that’s toxic for us (people, habits, products, etc.) that we don’t let go of it. No more!

I consulted a naturopath who did a Bioscan to reveal weaknesses and stressors (environmental, dietary, etc.) and prescribed homeopathic medicine to help strengthen my thyroid, liver, kidneys & gallbladder.

I gave Netflix a break for a few weeks and instead turned to more meditation & a sacred book that had been calling me back to it.

And as part of a barter arrangement with Meranda Squires, I designed a supported solo-retreat weekend at The Tree of Life last week to listen to Spirit as I traveled through both inner & outer landscapes.

First, that took me out of my routine and away from work and the Internet. I do tend to work, work, work, then watch, watch, watch in between nature walks …

And although I most often travel alone in my contemplative life, it was wonderful to have Meranda’s support when needed. I am so very grateful for my 2 Thai yoga massages, a crystal bowl sound bath, and 2 sessions of Mind Clearing in between nature walks. What an aha!! moment when she helped me identify a subconscious core belief that had been blocking my path my whole life and likely lifetimes before it.

My mini-retreat in nature quickly helped me regain trust in my Path as I continue to embrace the mystery and align with my Higher Purpose one inspired action at a time.

Plus my stay in the cozy Airbnb cabin with its wood stove and comfy bed surrounded by nature was just what I was hoping for.

This conscious personal detox and nourishment program of my body, mind, spirit, environment and whatever else is called for will continue for as long as it needs to.

I don’t have all the answers, but I’ve been given clues and resources to take care of myself so I can continue to channel Divine Love through my art & other creative offerings for you.

If I’m off track, that isn’t possible.

So if you’re at all feeling off track, please get creative and resourceful in how you too can take care of yourself. Ask your Team of Divine Helpers to show you the way and be open to acting on inspiration.

Your personal detox program will be as unique as you are.

All I hope to have done here is to highlight the importance of your contribution to the consciousness raising on the planet and to remind you that it starts with taking care of you.

Namaste sister / brother.

You are loved. I love you!
