Self-Care For The Soul – Details, episodes & analysis

Sometimes when we want something really bad, we say, “I trust... I trust… I trust…” when what we really mean is “I hope… I hope… I hope…” We are praying for a specific outcome that we want, and then if that outcome does not come to pass, we lose trust.

Then we find ourselves saying, “How can I trust in a God that would allow this…?” And then we lose hope, and if we’re not careful, we find ourselves spiraling in negativity that reinforces our fears.

We say to ourselves, “See, I was right!” We love to be validated. But to validate fears and visions of doom is counterproductive if we truly care about our future and the future of our planet.  

We must find our faith, muster our positive energy, and see a way forward that uplifts our frequency and the frequency of the planet.

This is the focus of this Meditation & Healing Circle. Listen to this episode for an experiential healing.

Here in the Northern Hemisphere, now is the time of harvest and preparing for the winter months. This is a period of reflection and beginning to turn inward to explore our inner landscape. It is the perfect time of year to experience the divine attributes of the Earth as reflected in our own divinity.

In this Meditation & Healing Circle, our friend Ruha Cathy Delwiche will guide you on a Reiki journey, where you can experience the life force of the earth – the primal life energy, providing sustenance and vitality to all living beings. You can immerse yourself in remembering your interconnectedness – everything on earth is interconnected and every element is related to and influences one another.

Embrace the divine within, and recognize that the divine qualities revealed by Mother Earth are already present within you. As your true nature is revealed, you cultivate greater peace, love, and purpose in life. By embracing this inner divinity, you access a source of strength, wisdom, and peace that enriches every aspect of your life.

There will be periods of silence for you to write about your experience as you reflect upon what your energies are currently focused on. Within this area of focus, you ask yourself the question: what is the one thing that you can do, that if you do it, everything else becomes easier or unnecessary? Get your pen and paper and enjoy your journey...

You've probably heard of the theory: "When you heal an ancestral pattern, you heal seven generations back and seven generations forward." Well, I was talking to someone the other day who said, "It bothers me to heal for the ones who hurt me." I so get that. When you're angry at someone for the pain they caused you, why would you want to do them any favors?

However, there is another way to look at this, and it's based on the intergenerational life cycle of the monarch butterfly. We have so much to learn from the mysteries of this incredible specimen of nature.

Listen to this episode for an exploration of the life cycle of your collective ancestral healing journey, based on the awe-inspiring intergenerational life journey of the monarch butterflies.

Water is the carrier of life force, and your body is composed of mostly water in a structured fluid state. The water within you is alive!

When inundated in modern manmade physical structures, water can become stagnant and murky. When immersed in the ego-based culture, it can become infused with vibrations that disconnect it from the resonance of the natural world and the spiritual realms.  

In these states, life force is depleted and our whole system loses its immune functions and takes on disease. 

But the water has intelligence and the life force can be restored. We must use our intention to connect with the higher realms of consciousness and the basic rhythms of the natural world to restore life force and return to health. 

This is the focus and practice of this week’s Meditation & Healing Circle. We use some of the Divine Names to invoke the life force from the higher realms, the Divine Powers, to rejuvenate the life and flow of the water within our bodies.

For reference, the Divine Names include:

• Al-Muhyi: the Giver of Life
• Al-Mumit: the Giver of Death
• Al-Hayy: the One Who Lives Forever

If our planet were human – a body with a spirit traveling a pathway of evolution – we could easily recognize that it has experienced severe trauma and is in deep need of healing. 

Effects of trauma leave the body’s nervous system on alert, hyperarousal, waiting for the next proverbial shoe to drop. 

The body’s electrical pathways are overstimulated, in need of settling into its natural rhythms, in need of returning to peace. 

Our planet’s environment is covered in systemic trauma – social, political, financial, food system, communication systems (radio waves, satellites, 5G) soil, plants, animals, water, air – all out of harmony and in need of balancing. 

For the wars, natural disasters, effects of climate change, effects of human “progress”, we offer special prayers for peace today to help settle the energetic pathways on our planet, to release patterns of fear and distrust, to relax into natural rhythms, to connect with love and compassion and kindness – to prepare for the restoration of peace on earth.  

This is the topic and practice of this week’s Meditation & Healing Circle. We set our intention to surround the earth and its environment with peace, to calm its electrical pathways and nervous system, and to reconnect with the inherent love and beauty of our planet. 

God willing, it will bring healing to you individually as well, as to bring healing to the whole is to bring wholeness to all of its parts.

What if you could walk across a threshold and close the door on all the fears and limitations that keep us looping in the dysfunction and pain of the past… even if the past was just yesterday?

I’m not suggesting we adopt an attitude of oblivious denial. I recognize things are pretty crazy out there right now.

But as long as we have breath moving through us, we can use our life force for good. We can raise our vibration and step out of the old bubble and into a realm of love. We can hold the vision for what is possible and continue to actively take steps to hold the higher vibration and move into the realm of peace and universal harmony. It is closer than it seems.

That is the focus of today's Meditation & Healing Circle. Together we will step through the doorway to the ocean of love. We close the door on the past and swim in the waters of Universal Harmony.

There is a holy saying, a Hadith Qudsi, that says:

God said,

“I was a Hidden Treasure and I desired to be known,

so I created the creation and made them to know Me.”

Do you every wonder why when you see signs of beauty, your heart expands or softens or melts, and you feel a sense of euphoria or awe or wonder? The signs of beauty bring about an instant response of “WOW!”

Today we will elevate our spirits by recalling signs of beauty and exploring the mysteries of sound, vibration, and beauty. We tap into the teaching on Cosmology of Letters and Sound from the Sufi mystic and scholar, Muhyiddin Ibn ‘Arabi, particularly the hidden meanings within the sound of “wow” and the Arabic letter, Waw. 

In this Meditation & Healing Circle, we swim in the Ocean of Sound to explore the connections and meanings within the body, heart, spirit, and nature.

An integral part of the human journey is to experience events and circumstances that seem to separate us from our true selves. These are the mini-traumas and major-traumas that leave us feeling on edge, unable to settle in and relax for very long, feeling unsafe in our own skin.

According to Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, if we want to experience fulfillment and know ourselves as one with All That Is, we must first have our basic needs met – and we must first feel safe in our bodies.

If we want to live a life of Oneness, Unconditional Love and Compassion, and Universal Harmony, it helps to feel ourselves as one with Nature and experience the wisdom of earth within us - the nature that our bodies are made of. 

In this limited lifespan we have in these bodies, we have an incredible opportunity to experience this world through our senses and basic instincts. We have a gift of learning about love and connection in ways that evolve the collective soul.

We are led to believe that we are individual beings out for survival in competition with each other and nature. What we are is cells of one body having a collective experience to evolve a collective consciousness. 

The existence is bigger than our selves and the journey is beyond our individual experiences. Yet our experiences are important to the whole, and our choices and states matter. Our sense of safety and oneness matters.

That is the focus of this week’s Meditation & Healing Circle – feeling safe in the body and trusting in the One Body that is the Rhythm of the breath and the beating of the heart.

Have you ever had the experience of

• Knowing you’ve done a good job, but then receiving criticism?
• Showing up to be a good friend, and then being rejected?
• Doing you best to get along, but it wasn’t quite enough?

This one has been a big life/soul lesson for me, and it has come up with clients 3 times in the past week. Going through it with clients reminds me of how far I’ve come, and seeing it 3 times in one week is a sign to bring it to you.

The disapproval can leave you deflated, questioning your own value, wondering what you did wrong. 

But you are still the same person before and after another person’s approval or disapproval. You are the same regardless of recognition or reward. 

No one else’s opinions of you can change who you are.

You might have been left with a few wounds and scars, and that is where we will bring healing in today’s Meditation & Healing Circle. 

In today’s practice, you will

• Unhook from the cords that have tied you to someone else’s approval.
• Reclaim your own authority and self-worth.
• Acknowledge your value and anchor the knowledge within you.
• Use powerful healing prayers to transform your inner patterning and vibration to align with your core truth.
