Some of you have seen that before I left PA my daughter brought me a water system that she felt was life changing. I was involved in moving, the virus and didn't feel like educating myself then but I did. I researched the idea of good water and, of course as you all know, it is a situation that will be in the forefront more and more. This is not new news, for many of us have systems to support our water. Our current administration doesn't believe or consider honoring the earth environment makes a difference in our world or health. I have a different view. As one with  a life of environmental products, healing arts, organic flower growing and lover of the parks, streams, lakes, oceans and all of outdoor activity in nature, I am conscious of the whole of nature I am  PART of. 

 I did quickly get a Kangen water system for my tap, an Anispa shower unit to have using ionized mineral water to bathe in (for we absorb through our skin)  and some organic, anti- inflammatory tumeric. I jumped all in.  I wanted to have good water as I moved to 4000 feet above sea level with drier air.  It has been an adventure on many levels and I proudly find myself supporting water education and offering this Kangen water resource in a big way. Many of us take so many elixirs and do practices to be healthful and preventative yet water is 73% of our body! If we don't have good water, the base,  our core, we are missing an important health elixir.  We overlook this. Often we don't drink enough water because our body doesn't want the acid water we offer it. Often we ask why can't we drink our 9 glasses a day? Your body is not hydrated by the water you are drinking  so it would rather not ingest it. 

 As I have drank this water through a 8 week transition from PA to my final home in CO, I have been greatly supported. First the altitude has not effected me and the stress of moving during this has not unraveled me.  I have energy, feel I am sleeping better, adjusting in general with out panic or fear. You many say,  " How does water effect your emotion or stress? " Well, after learning of water, dehydration effects us in so many ways, even depression.  Our brain is 80% water and if there is not enough, the electrical charges have no watery medium to conduct. We know water is the great conductor of electricity. Our whole body communication and mechanics is electrical impulses. Makes sense that for good health, we need hydration.  This video from a Neurologist was what sold me!

Why are we not hydrated when we drink lots of water?  We are not drinking fresh, alive water. Our water is dead. It is toxic in most cases. Alive water comes from the glaciers,  fresh hydrogenated water. The fountain of youth  perhaps is live water that is active ions to be an antioxidant. Live electrons  scavenger  free radicals, this supports health and beauty.  We buy water which is implied by the advertising that it is from a fresh spring of alive water. Ionized water acts like live water and  it is micro-clustered. It has smaller clusters of molecules which frees the hydrogen. Water likes to clump in big groups like grapes, especially if it sits in containers absorbing through the plastic who knows what. We ingest it, it runs through our system on a larger level but never gets into the cells. Cells have small openings to absorption.  Alive, active water gets in. Simple science yet profound health effects.

I have also experienced  some detox that comes  with this good, alive water. You feel the thirst in the beginning. Your body wants to drink and you really recognize your thirst most acutely! It leaves after a bit as a new level of water is going in. You are aware of your water, how it feels, the intake, the awareness of needing it to juice you. I drink much more water easily. Being so sensitive in my body, I feel like each system or layer is finally getting hydrated and working better.  I have only been drinking it about 2 months as my life transitions, with energizing effects.  As a healer, I sense that it will be quite a bit of time until my body self corrects fully with this alive, ionized water, reactivating my body. I am loving it, noticing the influence it has on my life and feeling more healthy with this small shift of drinking  octagonal water.

The body health from this is rejuvenating. The medical studies and the effects on so many health conditions from using ionized, alkalized, octagonal, micro-clustered water is astounding. Water quality can really effect our full being.   Educate yourself  on health through water. I have great resources here on my site under the water tab. Beyond this, the machine has many settings for using water in other ways in your home making it eco friendly and sustainable!!

We are learning to use the high alkalized water for laundry. The ionized, alkalized setting breaks up oil on  surfaces like the stove,  clothes stains, anything that needs oil to be broken down for clean. Truly the oils that we have on our body, counters, clothes  are what hold the stains and substance on our surfaces. This water breaks up oil and actually mixes with oil.  There is another setting considered 2.5 acid water that is for disinfecting. It is used in hospitals,  by dentists, day cares, hydrocaulic acid water it is called. You can google it. This kills germs greater than bleach and less dangerous. It is actually just active salt water. You think of how disinfectant the ocean is and this is a stronger version! How cool is that. All just water electrified and alkalized. It expands my mind that water can do all this. 

There is a beauty water setting   that has the same PH as the skin so it hydrates! It is a truly sustainable machine!  There are so many uses.  I am in the learning of all this. It is fascinating.  It is a process. I can see why the slogan for Enagic  is Change your water, change our life.  It is a investment in health. A process to  learn how to use this water and convert your home. Consider how much plastic and products I will not need anymore! Health in your environment too and less Plastic waste! Just mind stretching this journey has been!

 My conclusion at this time is that all need to experience this water. It is going to be the next appliance we all have. Many already have water filters of some sort. This is not so much a filter as an electrifier. It is charging the water.. A source of cleaning and beautifying as well!  I feel good to have found a machine that uses  tap water in this way.  Learning, experimenting,  educating and offering these to others. It is a great  opportunity in this time with all the sanitizing and health crisis. It is an opportunity to educate and build a business, all while finding greater health. I am loving it all! Growing, learning, sharing...... this is my way.

Well I don't doubt that many of us have learned a bit about patience of late. It is that base of stability. It is a quality that we could develop in our fast paced society and apparently with our current situation have brought plenty of it to ourselves. I am finding great joy in the patience. It has a nice vibe, a peaceful quality that I never really experienced before. Without the world moving fast around you, it seems to settle in as a pleasure rather than a problem.

I feel the antsy feeling of the world.  We want to get going now after a bit of lock down. Yet let's not forget the things that have been cast upon us and the learning that they have brought. I know I have definitely gotten to know myself in many new ways during this time. I have faced my drive to move without being able to use it in the regular sense. I have had to be very patient enough to crest through to find the peace in waiting without anxiety. Developing deeper trust in a bigger picture and purpose that one day perhaps I will understand. It has enhanced my faith in ways nothing else could. I have enjoyed myself in greater stillness than I have ever experienced. I have found safety in the trust whereas before I had a different measure.

I have been in Colorado 6 weeks during this Corona scene. I am in a new place and know few. I haven't had an opportunity to develop community or even get the layout as I would normally in regular conditions. I also have been in air bnb's rather than my own space. I have had my own space within another's home but it is different than being grounded in my own home. it all shifts tomorrow and I am enthused. However, I want to take a moment and reflect on what I learned in this odd circumstance.

I sit outside a 70 acre horse farm surrounded by mountain views. I am in the prairie really. There are 35 horses and pastures about me. I never knew the world of horses but I am very glad I landed here for a few days. It does remind me of my old farmer life which is so pleasant submerged in the nature of things. Birds, rabbits, prairie dogs, pigs and horses all around me. I have found a space within just by being in such a large space around me. I definitely am getting a chance to connect with nature in a grand way here that I didn't experience in the lil barn I was in at the edge of town. I needed this peace, this wide view, this range to settle me into this new life. We often find the simpliest things that inspire yet we couldn't of known the depth of it. 

I have made due with 2 weeks worth of supplies for 6 weeks. I had winter gear and it is 70 or more each day. I picked up a few things to support more summer and can't wait to get to my usual clothes. It has been interesting feeling pretty, being in new outfits for my podcast/youtubes, finding a way to mix and create with the supplies I have. I pretty much have managed very well. There are times of longing but I realize how little we need to survive and enjoy life.  This has been powerful and although I have been learning this a good part of 6 years, this last 6 weeks I have been very simple and light as we call it.

I have had to entertain myself in a place with unfamiliar surroundings. I could investigate nature but often finding where to assess has been an adventure. I have interacted with few local people other than the places I have stayed and the grocery clerks. It has been a very "Lyn" adventure other than the project with my daughter. I've had lots of time to just be with me, learning of myself and watching my mind create things or want to move to do and there was nothing to do. In all of this, I have found a more enlivening pace. It is slower but far more nourishing. I feel far more sensual in noticing things with this slower pace and more enlivened which I would not of thought possible. 

I feel a renewed feeling in my body. More feeling of the world around me as though I am just getting switched on to a greater physical experience. Having time to notice has really created an energy in my body that I never had before. I am alert, more aware in many ways that I can't even explain. My mind doesn't go off as much and I have a quiet observation that makes the world far more electric. Like a new way of physicality is upon me. Far more tuned into nature and all the currents around me.

I have had to be patient no matter what. I can only move as fast as conditions have allowed which we all know is way slower than before. Almost like a stall. This has, however, brought so much transformation in my being. I am less hurried in energy, relaxed and in enjoyment of it. I feel calmer than I have in quite a while and yet have the least amount of "security" that we consider to have safety, enjoyment and calm. It has been a very good time for me to enjoy myself beyond what I thought enjoy myself meant. And it is myself, my true self that isn't always moving that I have gotten to really know.  She wasn't around much before.

I have sat more and just dazed out into space more times than probably the last 5 years! It has been nice to play in the void of not doing anything. The creativity and imagination faculty has been amped up in myself and in all. The innovation has been about in fine ways and I believe this is all part of our increased patience. The settle into what can't be done, a little dazed out in perhaps discontent at first, that eventually turns into a creative inspiration. I am sure many have completed things that have been nagging them for a while. The energy that flows free from these moments has me greatly impressed. We read all these ideas but for the first time perhaps we have had to live them and see the benefits of health, vitality, sensory and creative impulse that occurs in this slower pace.

So I am finding a great advance from this time away from the familiar. It has enhanced my physicality and sensing of the greater world and energy. It has given me opportunity to know deeper, quieter parts of myself.  It has tapped me into inner worlds that are inspiring, imaginative and unending flow of energy. My faith and trust in all will be fine so deep beyond what I have experienced. And patience is a new virtue that I value not just because I have heard it.  I value it for I see what can be done while you are waiting. Very magical enlightenment.

Before I left for Colorado, my daughter brought Kangen Water to me. She was full of enthusiasm that we needed to get on board with good water. At first I was uninterested as I was moving. Research and investigating was not in the timetable. She was insistent. As I was getting things packed up, the idea of water kept rolling through my head. Facts like we are 73% or more water, all processes need water, dehydration the cause of so many illnesses, after healing treatments they encourage you  to drink water the rest of the day to detox what occurred.

The more this rolled in my head, the more I thought, why haven't I given much thought to water. I drink a lot of it but do I know if it is good water? Just because it is from a well does that mean it is good? What about all the pesticides put on lawns and dumped in the water table? Don't they effect the water? In a bind I get bottles of water. At the beach we drink so much bottled water for the water there is chlorinated. Bottled water is in plastic and that is permeable. I learned that years ago. As water bottles travel, they can pick up things through the plastic walls. I also have heard if your water bottle is in the car in the sun and heat, it spoils it. Was it any good in the first place? Do we really know anything about our bottled water? So many unhealthy facts of the water we use was running in my mind. It is costly too and getting more so. Now we are even buying it in glass which is cool, but is the water any better? All this about the most important element of life. 

I had never really investigated it further. I guess I didn't know what kind of solutions there was so why think about it? Then I began to watch videos from Doctors, Chiropractors, Nobel Prize winners about water and the importance of ionized water. There are no studies that are not positive. Doctors. spoke of how a simple solutions of water could change so many conditions that we have no remedy for in allopathic medicine. It made sense on one level and then on another was it really that simple? After fully submerging into it, I realized this is very important to health. I could take all the elixirs, supplements, tinctures, but if I was not hydrated properly, they wouldn't really get into the cells for water is the base of it all.

I bought the kangen water machine for my sink, a shower unit and some organic tumeric package available as part of the program. I used it as I continued to pack up and wonder in this crisis if I would be able to move. It was stressful and still is in the larger world so I am glad I got the water. I have felt the difference and detox of having the right water. There are many machines out there and I went for the most researched,  Kangen. It offered much more than drinking water and has been  around 40 years. There is tons of literature out there on using the water on physical ails written by Doctors.. Ways to disinfectant and clean with hydrocaulic water the machine creates that is used in hospitals. There is alkalized water for laundry and any greasy job. Beauty water that is the same ph as our skin so it supports it on the outside as well as inside. Just so much to learn and participate in this  sustainable machine.

I considered how much I spend on water. How much I spend on cleaners, beauty products, containers and containers of plastic we use and thought this is a deal over the long run. Just water can do all that? Yes it can and has been for quite a while. I know that if your body doesn't recognize something that comes in, it will store it in fat to manage later. The body wants things of the earth for it is made of those things and knows how to use them. Many things in all our products are chemicals our body doesn't recognize. It clogs it and doesn't flush it. What if you use the best water to support you innate health system to clear and clean? It just all made sense. Not to mention that inside, my intuition kept saying "get into water, it is so important". I heard that the whole time yet, I had to satisfy my mind with research and research. Funny  how that goes.

In doing our podcast, The Magical Holistic Healing Arts, we talked with Intuitive Healer,  Zach Reider in Arizona. He told us there are water stores there where you can get gallons of water. Kangen, reverse osmosis, etcc. I was amazed. But perhpas that is what will happen at some point for the water we purchase is dangerous when you look into it. 

Be informed. Learn about hydration and how that works. It is the leading cause of disease, acidosis, too acidic a body. You can use food. Water is easier and quicker to balance this issue. It is not just the alkaline water either. It is the ionized effect that breaks up the water molecules so they can get into your cells. Water likes to cluster in groups of molecules like grapes. It can not get into the cells that way. The electric effect splits the molecules. That creates extra electrons and they go in and scavenge free radicals. It is win win on many levels. You can go on pub med and find out about ionized, alkalized, octagonal, microclusterd water. It is the best there is.

Imagine if your health could improve tremendously with just one elixir. Imagine that all your other medications, supplements, tinctures worked better and perhaps you needed less of them. Imagine if you don't have to be concerned about water anymore. In this next leg, it will become far more important. This makes up the majority of our body. Imagine getting that functioning right, ails could disappear? Huge realization for me and I am happy to be learning all about it. I am a healer. I always seek ways to be healthy and curiously investigate. This one is the heaviest hitter I have discovered. Get informed. Find safer water. 

The Kangen Slogan is , Change your water, Change your life! That is pretty powerful concept! Let me know if you want more info. My site has endless videos and a pdf of the medical community who backs it and why. Many links to learn. I would love to support your shift in health through the simplicity of the water!

We certainly don't celebrate ourselves and all we do enough. As we have been lock down for over a month, take a moment and consider all that you have done. What have you completed that you had hanging around to manage? How have you used your time to investigate nature? To breathe deep? To rest and catch up on the things that settle you? Have you reconnected with others that you haven't had time to chat? What are the juicy things you have gotten done? Relax? Facials? Innovations? Any creativity that has occurred? 

We can focus on what has not happened and spent time wondering when things will change. However, I inspire you to really take inventory of the things complete. It is so powerful to look at life in new ways especially with this crazy time. How have you managed such an usual time? Where can you celebrate yourself for adaptability, innovation and creativity? Take a moment to feel proud of yourself for the good that has come during this time. Did you learn new technology or take a class that inspires you to develop yourself? So many things to celebrate for our flexibility to manage!

I know for myself I am really settling into all I have done. I moved. I created an online podcast and you tube to share inspiring perspectives on health and healing. I am learning a new state and town. I had to regroup from the original space I was to move. I have met people on line I never would of had a moment to connect with if we had not moved forward with our show. I have studied the Gene Keys deeper. I have been more focused on my homeopathy art. I have learned so much about water, my kangen machine and how to be more sustainable using it for cleaning, laundry, beauty care and hydration. I have relaxed. I have rested. I have been to beautiful nature places and pushed my physical limits to climb high. So many things I could celebrate how I have moved forward while being in a new home.

This is a powerful exercise to really look at what has been accomplished. It is different than the usual things and for that we should be proud. We have used this opportunity to expand and connect in new ways. This is good stuff. Perhaps you just tapped deeper into yourself? Created a new pathways to health? Money? New hobbies? Given ourselves time to feel calm and integrate. Maybe you have cooked more meals with love and care? All these are great accomplishments. They heal our souls and inspire new ways forward. Just enjoying the downtime is healthful. 

I hope you give yourself a moment of celebration. Really revel in it. Savor your savvy! Give yourself a hug or pat on the back for managing such a time in creative ways. Perhaps you learned something really juicy about yourself? These are hallmarks of greatness and deserve celebration! Spend the whole day thinking of all the wonder you are and have created!! This is self care. This is self cure! These things bring in security in you. Secure in the wonder you are! Oh do celebrate!! It is good!

This time of year is so beautiful! The awakening of all of nature surges us all with beautiful energy of becoming. Even despite the odd vibe of us all harboring in, nature continues to show us, this is a time to renew and come forward in a whole new way. Our lives are certainly different at this time. However, the conditions support us to really go inward, reflect on things and support us in bringing forward creative ways to shift our lives.

My birthday this year happens to fall on Easter Sunday. It is perfect for me this year for I moved to Colorado during this epidemic. All is new for me in a new town, a new state, a new environment.  I can feel the awakening of spring on so many levels. All things in life are different for me and it feels like a vacation. It is interesting for they say each moment is anew and being in this new place, I feel that so richly. Often we get caught in routine and a "groundhog day" feeling can occur. Yet none of us can feel that way this spring, for we are all experiencing the world in a new way.

I inspire you to really take this moment in time, this spirng 2020 to really awaken parts of yourself that will support your quthenticity. Many are get bored now, not sure what to do with all the busy chores done. We are so used to interacting with the world, doing so many things that can keep us busy. We can not longer do that in this time and I think it is good. I know I have rested more, getting used to the altitiude and oxygen level here and catching up on so many things that were put off as I got readu to move. 

I also am finding huge spaces of "what should I do now?" My list complete and there is this open time on my hands where I can actually just sit and wonder what to do next. It is a great time to just relax. Relax truly for there is nothing to deter us from doing that. The energy of the northeast before I left had slowed down. I would drive and really just take my time driving. The west has even a slower vibe. The roads have only a few cars and learning a new town is easy with nobody behind me in a rush. It feels good to get this space inside. This moment to wonder about what is next? Not only in that moment but in general. We may have thought these things for an hour or afternoon, but now our time can really sit in this space of what to do next.

I am finding many parts of me that never had time to express are coming forward. This great level of creatiity is around. My daughter and I created a you tube and podcast of the Magical Holistic Healing Arts. A project I always wanted to do to share with others modalities but there was no time. I also feel the relaxation of creativity. You can not be in creativity if you are stressed and busy. The creative space only comes when there is space. Often you are lost in time and it seems to not exist when you are in creativity. This time of year is considered the most creative time of year. Rebirht, resurrection, renewal happening all around us. Life is awakening from it's sleep with incredible beauty showing up around us. This is the great surge of creation!

I am also finding this swirling inside myself. It is the only way I can describe it. I am entering spaces that I have not visited in a long time. Really getting a moment to remeet myself in a way. We become these beings over time that has habits and patterns, we label ourselves as on time or behind, organized or not, shy or outgoing. I am finding things inside that don't fit those old labels. Being in a new place, I have no history here. No one knows me as this or that. Whenever I met someone it is new in that moment. I know nothing of them other than what I am experiencing of them and they the same for me. It is a wonderful feeling of presence that I didn't really notice living in the town I grew up. 

Swirling inside yes. Going into the crevices of Lyn that I have never felt time or perhaps interest in inhabiting. It is very freeing and quite fun. So many pieces of me that I am and never investigates. it is intriguing to me to get to know myself in such a way. Usually we are learning of others but at this time, we are learning of ourselves for we can. We can face our boredom, our annoyance, our irritation of this situation. Our fear of not knowing. Our panic and anxiety of when will I get back to life as I knew it. Our joy of being able to just do nothing. Our peace of being able to sit and look at the birds or be in nature and truly have the moment to get lost in it. It is a very interesting swirling.

My life will never be the same. I no longer will hang in the nature places or see the daily people I did. It is a full on rebirth for me. I imagine if I was still in PA. life would be very different too. We can't grab lunch or drink with those we love. We have to chat, text, facetime or zoom others. However I am sure neigbors and those who live close will get moments of relationship that may not of before. Local stores and the clerks we see become our new visits with others. There are so many shifts in how we live that I find exciting.  I am at an air bnb and getting to know the owner in a way perhaps I would not of before. I am cleaning up her garden and supporting the beautiful yard for spring. If we didn't have this lock down, I would of been out investigating the town and classes about rather than gardening in the yard. 

Relationships have a whole new meaning now. How we feel about our family and being harbored in with them 24/7. Human contact or interaction has changed. When your are out some people fully in fear, others happy to be interacting with other humans. A very interesting dynamic of social interaction. I find it really fascinating that I even have time to notice or contemplate all this. A renewal on all levels. So perfect as the earth is sharing it's new beauty. We can find new beauty in all life.

I also welcome all the emotions that arise. I a bit advocate of our emotional nature really being used as the guidance it is. We get the time to really let them come forward and wash up and out. They show us the quality of our thinking even if we don't notice we are thinking. It is the perfect purge of spring like getting rid of the old leaves and stalks from plants. Our emotions are a barometer of ourselves. We actually have the time to really feel them. Letting go as we watch them pass through. A grand cleansing of self only to find what we really feel about things. A magical process this year of really knwoing ourselves.

Blessing during this time that we are really getting an opportunity to reorder ourselves on all levels. There is discomfort as well as joy as we walk through this spring. I inspire you to find the joy in all this or atleast the rebirth as a stepping stone to yourself. Unknown to us all this situation yet life really is an unknown. It is supposed to be creative each moment. Perhaps we get to remember and really feel that relaxed, creative energy in a way we never could of before. I am using this renewal time to birth a Lyn that has never been before. Each plant and each tree has never blossomed exactly the same each spring. It is all new matter and cells creatied by the winter and the nutruients the plant has mixed together. We are truly the same. Never have we been in this moment before, this spring before, this lock dwon beofre. What wonder can we get from it? 

I am truly reawakening to myself as I am now in this moment. I hoep you all are doing the same. The odd, the ugly, the beautiful and creative is all here in this moment. How will you use this for greater joy and happiness? Let us all revel in this new learning. Who knows what wonder and delgiht will come of it! We always seem to make it through whatever has been before so we will now. The question is how will we be reborn from it all? What good will come from it? What can rest, relaxation, renewal do for our lives? We are finidng that out!

​Great love to you this spring!!

At each stage in life we evolve our  mix of  gifts. It is part of our growth, wisdom and path to mastery. Finding myself so free in Colorado for this next chapter, I am inspired to share how we find greater vitality when we celebrate ourselves! I think that was the blessing of the Himalayan Masters visit. I learned about my energy field, how to share that with others, how to feed, move and nourish my body and shift stress energy to power. Most importantly though, was the gift of learning my feminine body as different than a man's. That starts with celebrating yourself.

We truly don't celebrate ourselves enough! We celebrate others so fully and know the power it has. Yet we don't savor, revel or sit in OUR feel good moments. We whip past them onto the next task forgetting the deliciousness of accomplishment. We don't care for our sacred body as we do others, love on it and thank it for all it does. We push it, don't listen to it's call for down time and end up with a myriad of weakness and ails. All because we just don't really appreciate ourselves and all we do. It is a rat race of comparing, measuring our ideas against some ghosted desires that aren't even ours. It is truly a wonder we even survive this abuse.

This nourishing aspect towards ourselves is the key to our health. Men want competition, power, strength and endurance. Woman operate differently just by their very biology. Yes, we can do those things but extended periods of pushing is not a woman's way. We magnetize, draw to us, invite, intrigue, allure, attract. Very different energy power! One reaches out, the another draws in. It is the opposite. When we begin to honor our femininity and celebrate that power differently, we will excel in our health. Science is coming around to  it. 

Have fun, sink into our wonder and really feel good about ourselves. We all do so much for many running our lives.In this time of lock down, we really get to hear ourselves. We get to feel feelings that we are too busy to feel normally. Manage tasks we were too busy to handle  It is such a gift of self we get to experience in this moment. In respite, woman heal and connect to themselves, they nest. Our cycle creates that way for our own inward time monthly. Woman work on cycle and we need  to understand it. Our body has a natural, healthy need to step away and nourish itself. Go through the lower emotional body in order to cleanse and rebirth. This cycle is a celebration of life and how it becomes into being. We get in rhythm with our femininity.

When we are caring for others, we can still do it all when we understand how the flow goes. Being able to take our time is key. We have miraculous skills of completion. Our ability to multitask is powerful and we are designed that way.  We need to revel in these gifts!  We have different hormones and organs. It will take different  use of energy to create a balance in our body.  

Nourishing energy is fed by nourishing energy. It is a never ending well around us.  As we celebrate, fill and acknowledge ourselves in nourishment as we do others, we find an unlimited  supply available to us. This creative, nourishing energy is part of the magic we command as woman. It is our gift of giving life that taps us into the greater universal system of creating naturally. Through celebrating ourselves, taking time to know ourselves and feed ourselves what we need, we command a power greater than our own well of energy.

 We don't have to shift our natural gift of nourishing, just find a way to give more to ourselves so we may be included in our efforts. Notice how much you are valued and do even if others don't show it. The world would collapse without the web of woman running it. 

​And if in this time, you are worried about the future, consider all the things you worried about have eventually worked out. I imagine our worries at this time will also work out. We have come this far and seems we will continue to be okay as we always are. Maybe not as we planned or wanted, but we get through just the same. Woman naturally know that and hold the space for that to be.
 

It's time to really begin a new spring of celebrating yourself. It may feel weird at first. Our training of how silly it is or how perhaps we could judge it as egotistical is interesting to watch. It is none of that. It is self esteem, self love and confidence. If we don't find joy in ourselves, we can't really receive it fully from others. 

If you have areas that you want to be better, joyfully work on them. No one is really judging you but you. No one cares much and if they do, they just aren't of your tribe. It is good for us to be different and celebrate in that. Your magic that makes you you, can't come out if you are acting like another. We need your greatness fully at this time. What ever your gift, it is divinely inspired and needed as it is. No fluff or sharpening needs to be added.

 Take the down time to celebrate who we are. Own it, know it and find the lil quirks that make you yourself. So much self development about changing ourselves. My schools were always about celebrating what you are that is good. From there the  unnecessary falls away.  The good revels further and becomes more. The law of energy to use and inspire yourself!! This is the natural woman's way. To see the beauty in all things and celebrate it!

,The other day I learned a perspective on two energies that really has shifted my point of view! I did my own birthday Goddess Card reading for inspiration towards the year.  In the reading, I got the card of Sekmet, an Egyptian Goddess of Anger and Rage as well as Bast, the Egyptian Goddess of Play. In reviewing the history, they were considered the two aspects of the Sun God. At some point they appeared the same and things evolved to two aspects of the Sun depending on where you reference them. The history I chose to integrate was of  Amy Sophia Marashinsky in her Goddess Oracle deck.

This struck me as interesting for never have I heard the Sun, the power energy of our world, put forth as having two aspects listed as anger and play. It really intrigued me to digest this. It expanded me to look at at anger as the opposite energetic of  play. Yet when I think of having so much fun and the power it exudes and consider anger with its power, I could see how these are two ends of the pendulum.

As it was described through this Egyptian lore, Play is nourishing, the life giving aspect and Anger is the destructive, protective  aspect of Sun energy.  This was beautiful to me. Never had I heard it put quite that way. It supported me to embrace anger not in a negative way as we often do. We seem to have many judgments on anger, getting angry not so supported and often we have seen very destructive aspects of anger. We can beat ourselves up for being angry or mean. Seeing it as a good use of power, as a viable way to express this life giving energy was curious considering our upbringing. There are definitely times when anger is important and a message to move, stop something or boundary yourself for what is going on is not nourishing!

 Anger is just an expression or guide to us from our emotional nature that signals destruction is here. Something needs to end, be left behind or is not working for our highest good. It then becomes such a guiding, inspiring emotion! It is indicating what is not working. Rather then feel bad that we expressed it, we can embrace it's presence as a message to get rid of something or move in another direction. Perhaps just boundary and stop what is occurring for it is not working
for your well being.

More exciting was the life giving aspect of this Sun power is PLAY! That I found most inspiring! The highest nourishment comes from play!! How cool is that? And opposite anger? Wow!
Can we use the destructive energy of anger within to be cleared by playing?
I like that idea. I like that if we find anger within we can transmute it to nourishing energy by playing.

It gave me a whole new spin on humor as well. How often have we been in situations where anger was about and  started giggling a bit at the insanity of a fight? it is almost as though our body being knows how to shift this energy to get us more present. Or even after a fight, you consider what occurred and you laugh for it was funny how you acted! Not that this happens always but it does. When sharing the story, we begin to laugh at the craziness that occurs with anger. How interesting is that?

I found clearly the message in these two cards in a new way. It softened the judgment of anger as well. It gave it a clear purpose and a way to understand this emotion that many stuff down or send out powerfully. All that is occurring is one is using the life giving energy as destructive
and rightly so for they are not feeling nourished or honored in the situation that is occurring. 

Better yet is the power given to play!! So often I have been told to grow up, stop being so silly and get serious! Yet play is the highest nourishing power!! So being playful, silly, fun and inspiring is great nourishment and the top expression of Sun energy. That is the greatest news to me
on this Easter Sunday that also happens to be my birthday this year!

It makes sense when I see nature. The awakening of the plants, the blooms on the fruit trees and magnolias. Playfully they greet us in beauty of returning to life. The fruit, the high expression of the plant kingdom has this vibration of delight, beauty and inspiration that feels like play. Nature looks like she is playing often. When you see the animals frolic or the butterflies flit around.
The babbling of a creek or the rush of a waterfall, all have this playful feeling.
We feel like wondrous children often when in nature.
Curious, enlivened, delighted and fully  present. 

Very interesting indeed! That is why I love the lore, mythology and philosophies of story telling. Many ways of joyous living were passed through oral tradition in story. It wasn't necessarily the characters for they represented aspects, ideas, philosophies.
Perhaps for us to remember these things.

I also find it quite interesting that both these Goddesses are depicted in the form of cats!
Sekmet is a angry looking lion and Bast a cat of play! I will leave you with the poem on Bast
for it is the most inspiring words on how to heal with play!
Perfect for this time of being harbored in our homes!

Bast
Play
I swirl and twirl, I hide and seek, romping and ranging, funning and frolicking,
My opportunities for self-amusement are endless and the pleasure that it gives me makes me purrr.
Life challenges never stop me for I know how to whole myself with play!
