After a long hiatus I will continue to share some of my thoughts on self healing, I consider myself blessed to be on this journey.
I have been on my journey into meditation and yoga for over forty years, but I still consider myself a student. Why? Because life does not accommodate us. There will always be roadblocks and detours to throw us off balance. When I was in the quicksand of a depression I found yoga or yoga t found me. Within a few weeks the muse sitting on my shoulder led me to a sign in the window which read "Transcendental Meditation" and within a few days of practice I began to ascend from the darkness of sleepless nights and the denial of my pain by wearing multiple masks. Once we become anchored in the center of our divine soul. no longer can we be pulled along by the debilitating tides of anger and despair. Sometimes the darkness of pain is necessary before we can transform the light within us, renewing and giving unconditional love to ourselves.
There are many forms of meditation and I have experienced several methods, but the one common thread and the most important thing we can learn from any form of meditation is self study. We begin this journey in our solitude, a temporary exclusion that can last for 10 minutes to 30 minutes or more. Once you begin this retreat over a sustained period you are on a path of light that empowers you. In the silence of your mind you can observe your demons and we all have them, but you can learn to move away from them.
We can return to this power source of love, faith and hope on a daily basis to realize the changes we need to make. For this moment in time, tune out the distractions of TV and the ever present cell phone. Self love enables us to move forward by taking responsibility for making positive changes in our lifestyles.It sounds easy, but the four-letter word WORK is the biggest challenge. Think Big, but start small. The rewards of staying balanced in a world driven by social media and materialism will try one's strength and endurance. One of the things to be mindful of is each person is different, do not compare yourself with other people. When you stumble, know that you can return to your healing path any time. It is your choice. .
