Breaking a Pattern…

A Body Balancing ACT!

Today I am in the 7th day of a 2 day Body Cleansing Experiment!  I usually do some sort of cleanse at least a couple of times a year. Well…this time my Body was going to have one whether I made the decision to do it or not…ha!  My tummy was not a very happy camper so I finally had to listen more closely!  You see…There is this pattern that has been happening to me for a while now and I am finally doing something different about it…

Here is the pattern…maybe you can relate to it?  I am guided to do something new, I feel it in my heart, it is definitely the right step to take, I am so excited I could jump out of my skin, I am ready to rock and roll into this new thing that has popped in to be created…YIPPPEEEE!  THEN…out of the blue…something happens with my Body to either slow me down or stop me in my tracks…  DANG…I ‘thought’ I was ready to move into this new exciting adventure…and I’m following through with my guidance…what the HECK is THIS about???   Then…my ‘old’ pattern would kick in… I would get incredibly frustrated, try to get rid of whatever was going on in my body, be crabby, angry, sad, force myself to do things I ‘thought’ I needed to do to get things rolling, and sometimes even having that sense of just ‘giving up’… (Hmmm…as I type these words, I can feel it in my throat:-)

Well…this time I decided to do just that “GIVE UP” or maybe a better way to say it is “SURRENDER” or “LET GO”…  Surrender has always felt like a negative word to me…until today!  It was the Surrendering into my Body’s Guidance/Wisdom that has taken me on to the 7th day of a 2 day cleanse…ha! And…an amazing time of purging and purifying it has been…  Finally, I am moving through it instead of trying to get rid of it!!

I am really following My Body’s Guidance and it has been fun and rewarding…and I have to admit…some ucky stuff along the way (physcially, mentally, emotionally, spiritually, and energetically). In the past, I may have gone into fear or what’s wrong with me or frustration or worry or what am I doing wrong or what am I eating wrong or what is causing this or trying to figure it out or the list goes on and on…KEY POINT: My focus was to JUST GET RID OF IT…so I could go on with my life!!! I have so many things to complete before I leave this planet…so BODY…let’s get to it…LOL!  And…I always ‘knew’ (at least in the last several years:-) that my Body is such a sacred, powerful, and important part of the puzzle of living a vibrant life… It just didn’t sink in to the deeper level of action in the moment like it has Right Now…

So…this time…I am honoring My Body, following It’s Guidance, doing things and eating/drinking things that It is Guiding me to, etc. WOW…what a difference it is making so far…  And…I have to say…much of this Guidance would not be on the list of ‘normal’ ways to do cleanses. In fact, many would say this “doesn’t really make sense” based on their experience, research, or ‘their’ modality, etc. Oh my, there is so much great stuff out there on how to bring the Body back into balance…it is overwhelming!  So…this time the modality I am using is “My Body’s Guidance System”.  Why not…it certainly is a lot smarter than me…ha!  Have you every imagined how much our bodies do everyday without us trying to control it…YIKES…what a beautiful orchastration of parts to bring about this amazing Human Body! And…although we all have similar parts…each of us is unique in many ways. SO…I decided to Listen more closely to my Body, Trust It, and Follow Through with It’s Guidance this time…  

So far, doing something different is paying off!  I feel so much better than I did 7 days ago! And…I have a strong feeling that this ‘cleanse’ may become an everyday way of tuning in to my Body’s Wisdom so we (my Body and Me:-) can partner together on this life’s journey. And…OK OK OK…I finally get it…that includes…taking the time It needs to create the things I am guided to create and live the life I am here to live…  (I have been getting several doses of that word ‘Patience’ lately…I may even be finally getting it…ha!)

So, you might want to take a moment now to tune into your Body…take a couple of deep breaths…what is It telling you?  What is It REALLY telling you…Listen Listen Listen…then if there is Action to be taken…Take It…:-). You will be glad you did!  And…if you would like to take it a step further…Ask yourself what patterns am I living right now that are ready to be broken?  Where are my frustrations? What can I do different to break these patterns and move forward with my life in new vibrant ways?? Then…do something different… And…Have FUN doing it!

Until next time…Enjoy the Pattern Breaking Journey…  It can be very rewarding…
