It’s been such a dry season right here, which is why I commented to my hairstylist about babying my dry scalp. Her suggestion was the precise reverse of what I’d been doing. Brush, brush, brush! The physique is aware of how you can make sufficient pure oil – we simply must be courageous sufficient to activate it.
I began pondering of different areas of life that we child. An space of life that has been a bit dry currently. Possibly extra than simply currently if we give it an trustworthy thought. A life space that’s secretly sore and pushed to the again of the thoughts. And but retains effervescent again up. Or an space that’s tender, that brings up tears or weak fears.
However how will we go about “brushing” these areas? Meditation or prayer is a superb solution to “brush”. It’s mild but trustworthy. It’s brief and day by day. It’s achieved in a protected spot that you could stroll away from (till subsequent time).
There are various methods to do this kind of focussed meditation, so experiment a bit. Maybe you meditate in phrases, pondering of 1 phrase every time that describes how this space of your life makes you are feeling. Or maybe you meditate in colour, every time picturing it as a special colour. And whenever you discover the suitable colour, then start picturing the small print. Is it transferring or nonetheless, skinny or thick, translucent or strong? Or possibly you meditate on the place you are feeling it in your physique. Does it appear to take a seat in your shoulders or deep in your stomach or in between your eyebrows?
Bear in mind that you’re “brushing” and “activating” and never fixing. You’re merely sitting with it. Observing it. Acknowledging it. Letting it BE. The fixing would possibly occur later, after a month or longer, and out of doors of meditation. Otherwise you would possibly discover that fixing isn’t the reply. Maybe it’s extra like a therapeutic that slowly begins.
Meditation or prayer is a superb approach oil-up the dry areas and the sore areas and the tender areas of life. So be courageous. Brush.
Till subsequent time,
