At the very beginning of each day or each meditation, you tell the universe what you want.
Focus on your life, your goals and life purpose, telling your body what you want, and have a beautiful image of yourself and what kind of life you want to live. Then you can send a message to the universe.
What kind of image do you see of the world you want to live in?
What is your purpose? What do you want to accomplish?
What is your intention?
Make your purpose clear.
Submit your message in the light while meditating
Feel the essence of your message
Let go of any fears and doubts
After that, you solely focus on the moment.
Feeling how good you feel.
Feeling the tingling sensations in your hands, in your body, seeing light in your body, and focus on that!
Once you put yourself in the ‘Oneness’ you trust the energy and trust the messages you receive. Trust the intelligence within you.
Too much analytical thinking may stop your inner wisdom from surfacing
In the quietness you breathe slowly, gently, and deeply. You help yourself to wake up the intelligence in the body.
You receive these messages to help you fix the wrong information in the body.
It is a process of cleansing, so a lot of people cry and they feel peaceful at the same time; they feel lots of emotional experiences, again, just let it be and allow it to happen. It is a process of detoxifying. When you open all this old information and messages get cleared out, health is going to restore back your life.
This is why having a purpose when practicing Spring Forest Qigong is important, regardless what your purpose is; for healing or for relationship, or for higher vibration. When you have a purpose, the Qi, is automatically directed to support your purpose.
Qinzhi says I look so tired and that I m “done with life”
It’s an empty look
That even I got worried about
I was so empty and blanked out I couldn’t understand where or what went wrong
I tried to understand find out but just couldn’t
I was just emptied out
Was I in some kind of shock or did something grip me?
Did I shut myself down because I felt low and the cycle repeats?
I tried to anchor myself on Buddhist mantras and affirmations like looking in the mirror and saying I love you , I approve of myself
Sometimes there were realizations such as – this is another opportunity to train the mind and steer it to a firm standing
I was definitely thrown off course- how did I slip into this?
In everyday there are ups and downs and once again I see clearly for myself how the mind went off course and the body followed
And I know now what can help: meditation, simple qigong , moving the hands, shaking, running and walking in the sun, soaking the feet in sea water, hugging and kissing the kids, getting a hug and kiss from bf, watching k pop and
Sleeping
Sleeping is like a reset and I always wake up feeling better .
Breathe
Shower
Awareness actually
Actually – the simplest things anyone can do
To find back or come back to center
Then just now, after some movement, I had this voice which said- “ all this happened to remind you that you can heal yourself!”
Like a kind of cyclical repeat, these episodes of tired help me get into myself, and lets me find some kind of power I have stored in me. It happened again and again and each time I came out of it following an uplifting thought
I can heal myself – I can heal myself , this is the message tired brought me and reminded me of
And I asked, what and how. And I learnt to listen
These fatigued out low energy low esteem days and moments serve to let me know that I can snap out of them at will. And only I
And so can you
I m well and all is safe. Out of this only good will come. I am always divinely protected and guided, always traveling in the best direction .
And so it is. You too, wherever you are. For the very simple reason, life loves you.
The day after – on a bus, I heard a voice go- who says tired is bad? What is the value you attach to tired that made it worse?
We tend to have certain ideas about things and these may be the exact things that might not serve us
So free the self from concepts notions ideas attachments and experience greater space and freedom
This somehow struck me when I read it the first time.
It’s what Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche, Tsoknyi Rinpoche or in general what meditation is about. Coming back to center.
Or perhaps, what life is teaching us to do. To (be willing to) come back
And where is center? I asked. A place of non attachment peace love clarity stability balance
A place of light.
“Your body wants your attention and your presence. It doesn’t want to be forgotten by you. It wants to be included in your life and in the present with you, and it will serve you if you can remember to come back to your presence each day.
And the more you return to noticing your breath, your body, the sooner you will notice when you are leaving your center. Being present will become like breathing to you. Our power lies in our presence with our body and our soul, and much of our outer world will lead us away from that truth, distract us, entice us. And this beautiful body of yours that allows you to uniquely express and experience every day, wants to be remembered by you and included in your consciousness.
We change due to external circumstances, sometimes unwillingly unconsciously. But when we meditate, we are willingly and consciously—— asking our brain to change
Is there something you can dig out from your past, from the deepest of your realities ———to share?
Is there a possibility of opening up?A few days ago, I had this knowing. Its a strange feeling, strange enough to let you know a something is brewing. Like a mirror. Its clarity and knowing for sure. A calm that grounds you and lets you stand rooted, that keeps you where you are no matter how the outside is swirling.
What is that I asked?
Its knowing you are whole and can be joyful irregardless of anything or everything. Its joy as well reaching that point.
What culminated this knowing? I asked?
In my early meditation or maybe just contemplative me time today, I had an idea. A spark.
The cyst (and how it got here—— all my experiences) wants to be known. Not hidden.
I had been slightly worried about taking about it . Unknowingly, unconsciously, I took to hiding it.
The vibe the energy of this whole thing is sullen and down.
All I know is hiding, hiding my eyes before my glasses, when i used to work, i didnt give myself recognition. I was hiding and not acknowledging my authority, and I was hiding too much past and hiding behind my power behind these past.
But recently I had the chance to talk about it to my relatives as I shared with them the possibilities about plant power. And it felt good that I was sharing , it get good that I was opening up.
I couldn’t sleep last night because I heard a friend’s godfather had aneurysm in the heart. And he is a heart surgeon.
I knew plant power could offer him possibilities the medical world cannot. The phrase that came to mind was—- tell him about my cyst and how it shrunk.
I don’t mind telling him about it if this can open him up to new possibilities
And because of this thought, the cyst became a possibility a hope a positive
It wasn’t easy for me to reach this thought.
How about sharing and opening up further TPY? If it helps others? Not just the cyst but everything else and in between .
I had had the opportunity to see my past experiences as a wealth of resource I can tap into previously. But I haven’t had the chance to use it.
This morning sitting—— I asked, where is my deepest awareness? Can I locate it? Why does it look like? What possibilities does it show?
What is the deepest reality of my awareness? How else can I grow? What else can I do?
I think many.
And first—— the thought about sharing , well at least not hiding the cyst and therefore my past, popped up.
I chose hiding it unconsciously. Because that was the possibility, the sunken and deep seated energy that I was all too familiar because of my life’s experiences.
But I hadn’t known other possibilities.
But the cyst does not want to be hidden! So is the same for all the experiences that brought me here.
If I had any inkling and really looked upon my experiences that once gave me pain and suffering —— as my resource now , there is no reason to behave like I am now.
I would be using the cyst and my experiences. And that would truly be letting these shine as possibilities.
May I have the support of the universe in opening up and in the powerful completion of this transformation, to help myself and others.
Many years back I decided to celebrate mom’s birthday but that ended up to be her first and last
This year, because of realization and lots of mini awakening, I asked my siblings to order in for Father’s Day.
And, What coincidence
A few days later, dad had a pain in his heart area and went to A&E. X rays ruled out heart issues but a few days later , a CT scan showed blockages in his heart
Is it any more surprising?
No! Dad has been keeping too many things to himself and the blockage is as much an expression of his mental health
Yesterday dad called at evening time to say in a weak voice , obviously shocked, about what he has just heard
He said I will have to bring the kids these few days to n back from school
In that few moments I experienced crippling fear. Light and weightless all over, totally overwhelmed
No wonder I felt pricks in my chest area those few days too
I tried to be aware but the forces are too strong really
When dad went to A&E, a thought occurred to me : what would he be thinking of?
Mom —- was the answer.
And amazingly I had the WhatsApp conversation with Angie who pointed out that I needed to handle the fear that was trapped in my cyst
I was trying to, with awareness, with EFT tapping, it’s not easy , I tried to just observe them but I find my mind drifting away to look for other things
So I realized I didn’t really want to manage the difficult emotions
It’s hard work!
And each time I drifted to find something else I brought myself gently back
yesterday with all the fear, I was trying to keep sanity.
So much from the past
I tried to look at them.
I prayed. Thankful I have the reiki group and the sangha at Sasha and Ula’s end to reach out to
But there was still a lot to handle—— from the past! Why, ?!
So much from the past came flying back . They were what I blinked a blind eye to, not allowing not acknowledging not recognizing
Each time I observed fear I tell myself to use this time. Use it. Transform it to my advantage
Use it in support of meditation of my observing to sharpen my senses and to get to know my subtle body better
There’s so so much to know
I ask myself: what is the state or action I want to choose ? I can choose peace and stability over fear, an old reaction an old program
At the same time, there’s so much from the past! It sort of Wowed me. so much content that I m trying to observe and send my awareness to
I intend to use this opportunity to heal, to release all that have been cooped up in my cells in my system . I intend and release them
They can no longer serve me
I went for a long hug and bf patted me on the back. As usual, his advice is to take things matter of factly, without emotions and to be objective so as to solve problems . To accept reality of life.
The same advice from the past
But I think recognizing emotions and at least no shoving them away is so important
I tried to work internally on my own. I prayed to guru rinpoche to ask for blessings and healing and support to guide me every single moment
I used essential oils and they helped me greatly
I used releasing statements to support me
I asked the sun for support
I thought of all the things I learnt and tried to put them to use
I tell myself to choose a different reaction from what I used to. to set in a new program and have the power in my hands
What if I don’t have this past these experiences? How would I be now? I asked?
I remind myself as best I can: use this to transform and to release all the deep deep emotions stored away for these years
I see myself at dad’s bed when he has his spinal operation. That was perhaps my very first deep set fear, of losing of not being able to control
As the sun shone on me, I asked the sun to give me all the support all the awareness and wisdom I need , to heal my relationship with my father , to heal my cyst and all the fear and worry I have. To dissolve the cyst and all of the fear and old programs
I remember after putting down the phone with dad yesterday, the first thing that came to mind was, I want to forgive you . Please give me a chance to. I deeply regret all the ego all the strong feelings of anger and pushing him away and not letting him into my life all these years
I deeply regret this
What for? There’s no use no help to everyone around. There’s no help at all to my life but only detriment to it . I suffer the most bearing these grudges over the years
I promise myself I will try my utmost to practice awareness and to allow whatever rises in me. To not push away to observe to release
And Tsoknyi Rinpoche’s words helped me so much. Now I see why I had been given the opportunity to manage his instagram
I m reminded of the recent podcast Deepak Chopra shared. That all things events thoughts are rainbow bodies and an interaction of entangled light
If so let’s send light internally and also outwards even with this opportunity
And to learn to be space, to welcome experience without judgement
I journey with these thoughts on the bus to find dad. Trying my utmost to practice using this opportunity———I find the best is mingyur rinpoche or Tsoknyi rinpoche method . Relax mind , totally drop everything, just be aware . Whatever feelings that surface , just be aware , do not react . It will be released.
We all have been carrying the hurt the fear the burden far too long, since dad left us that very year and then mom .
The universe wants us to heal and to be loving to each other. Thank you universe. Please be with me, my dearest universe! to send me all the support awareness strength and magic I need.
What I saw at the ward gave me a shock. Wilting health and faces in dullness, dad’s face was rosy and pink I wonder why he is there
I spoke to Su, my reiki teacher who said to me:
There was a lot of golden healing light going through and surrounding both you and your dad last night and this morning.
This morning was particularly intense. The sense I got for your dad is that it’s very much tied to emotions he has not resolved (exactly as you said – keeping too many things in his heart). In particular, something happened (or he witnessed) to him (nothing to do with you directly – you may/may not have been present) when you were 2 months’ old. That one thing seems to be like the cover to this current episode.
In terms of physical blocks, I could not sense/see any that was significant. It was mostly emotional.”
I told Su about the reflections and she said, “letting go and forgiveness. This is really really important for both you and your dad. The letting go, and the forgiveness.
You’ve already started – the first step is recognising the need to forgive and let go.
Before you continue, forgive yourself first. Then your dad. Sometimes saying it out loud really helps. Saying it out loud to your dad and to yourself – very important.
You can share the Ho’Oponopono prayer with your dad. Both of you say it together. Excellent if you can use YL Forgiveness EO at the same.
“I’m sorry. Please forgive me. I love you. And I thank you.”
The Hawaiian tribes used to say this prayer (I think they still do) before meeting any other tribes etc and they would successfully avoid conflict.
And you can repeat it over and over. Do it for yourself (your dad too – for himself), then for each other.”
Afterwards I took some time by the beach, to feel the sandy and the seawater washing at my feet
And I felt so good instantly . Mother Nature’s healing prowess. I felt more stable so much more at ease afterward.
If anything . I believe the universe is trying to crystallize my transformation and upgrade.
Give me all the support and all that I need then , universe.
To experience expansion of the human mind, upgrade the lens we are looking thru
Solution 5: Identifying and healing leaky gut
gut brain connection
Vagus nerve: powerful inflammation highway where bacteria and microbes in gut sends signals and tells brain what to do can dramatically change how we feel———Pedram Shojai
For every message from brain telling gut what to do, there are 9 messages coming up from the gut telling the brain what to do= intimate connection
SO : leaky gut-leaky brain
All disorders of the brain anxiety depression Parkinson’s etc they r all diseases of inflammation
4 powerful immune system and the most powerful one is in the brain
The immune cells in brain are gliai cells, maintain homeostasis
When there’s too much leakiness, the gliai cells are firing everyday , the collateral damage depending on genetic vulnerabilities gives you different disease biopolar Alzheimer’s
So, Identify inflammatory triggers at end of fork and rebuild your healthier microbiome
Buy every type of root veg in the store, alternate them
Fibre in these root vegetables feed the good bacteria in gut
Prebiotic foods-2 each day, take prebiotic supplement for
2 months to rejig system
Find 5 types of fermented vegetables, every day eat a fork full
Fermentation produces hundreds of good bacteria—————–Tom O Bryan
Sugar white flour processed junk—-> feeding a certain type of bacteria
When you eat sugar you create sugar
When you eat the food that is best for you regularly and consistently your saliva changes
Good bacteria in gut feast on fibre
Lots lots lots lots lots of veg —————–Ocean Robbins
Nutrients brain thrives on: fat
Olive oil fantastic for brain health—————Titus Chiu
Gut
Mucous lining: protective layer where good bacteria live
1 cell layer
Inflammation systemically pushing its way they lifestyles
So if lifestyles diet don’t change life keeps burdening you just carry a burden that becomes chronic
At cellular level you r changing the way cells communicate which might change the way your genes express themselves
Neurotrophic support: peptides or proteins that support the growth and survival of developing mature neurons—————Angie Martinez
The more stress a plant goes thru, the more stress protective molecules it makes—>source produce wisely
Solution 4: Brain Herbs and Supplements
Rhodiola/Sea buckthorn/Choda/Nettle: Vikings take them before battles
Adaptogen
Herbal medicine to Stabilize psychological processes and homeostasis
Ginseng in almost every culture: Ashawagandha/Maca/Rhodiola
Have energy boosting properties
Lion’s mane
Good for stress= good for cognitive= improves strength and energy —all linked————Tero Isokauppila
Bioprospecting- go back n look at herbals
Solution 3: Photobiomodulation
Low level laser therapy
Light does enter the perineum
The therapeutic window: use certain wavelengths such as infra red to get thru the skull and affecting the cells
Why does putting a small amount. Of energy into your body, whether light or electrical create an effect ?
Because all chemical reactions r all electrical reactions , electron transfers etc
But we are so stuck thinking that the body is chemical reactions
So we do not yet think about intervening at electrical level which can have powerful effects
But when we do we think about frequency medicine ———- Sanjay Manchanda/ Lew lim, Vielight
This is again super super interesting. All ways seemingly unproven now finds basis in science and research. Coupled with understanding that we are energy we are vibrations, this helps me understand how reiki worked or why energy work or vibration therapy works
Solution 2 : Heart Math
Heart brain access
Heart based practices
There is neuro traffic between heart and brain, the heart has its own nervous system and is constantly telling the brain what to do
Brain is looking for quality of signals from heart
Look at the spaces between the heart beats
Information is transmitted in between pulses rhythms spaces
how to shift heart and heart signals to support higher functions and open up to higher perceptions and free yourself
Heart rhythm change: arrive at The Coherent state: positive states of emotions. Inner quality management————-Deborah Rozman
WOW: isnt this at the scientific basis to meditation? or simply, awareness. Observing spaces in between the heart beats! Thats a new place I wanna see.
Cells in core nucleus of amygdala are synchronized to the heart beat
rhythmic patterns of heart is monitored by amygdala
simple tools to self regulate n choose emotional diet
in reality a healthy resilient person : heart rate changes with each and every heartbeat
heart rate variability: the physiological phenomenon of variation in the time interval between heartbeats
to measure that have to measure time between each and every heartbeat and that varies
more of this variability when we r young decreases when we age
chief reasons variability is lower than it should be for your age is long term stress, depletes our nervous system, reflected in flexibility
there’s a strong correlation between nervous system flexibility and cognitive flexibility emotional flexibility
chaotic pattern associated with depleting emotions
frustration impatience anxiety reflected in chaotic activity of nervous system and shows up
Heart Math: techniques intuition to overcome challenges———–Rollin McCraty
Solution 1 : Meditation
releases gaba and serotonin
neuroplasticity: amazing ability of brain to change structure function, change how u see yourself and world
in flight in fight you activate back part of brain, recitlium, behave in animal ways, vs frontal lobe is emotional intelligence
Self care: take the time to stop and pause, to experience vastness and expansion of mind
activate different parts of brain for memory focus concentration
focus attention, u regulate
open meditation : engaging pre frontal cortex
emotional stress regulation
