Are You an Energetic Punching Bag?

Have you ever felt like a punching bag or magnet for punishing energy? You know what I’m asking here! It’s those times when you were feeling pretty good, went into a meeting or family gathering and walked out like Muhammed Ali just delivered a knock-out punch and laid you out in the boxing ring.

Your head is ringing, eyes are blurry, everything seems to overwhelm you and all you want to do is curl up in a corner and take a nap even though nobody actually touched your physical body.  I’m pretty clear that at one time or another each of us has experienced this or something like it! When you finally get back into your own space, you are left wondering what happened, if it was you that caused it or you get angry and blame the person (or group) who ‘did it to you’. Often it causes you to feel like a powerless victim.

If you have ever asked why you feel punished like this, you might want to take a look at what it is that you are resisting! Resistance is an interesting energy to explore.  Energy gets thrown around all the time and you can’t control what others do whether it be in the body or energetically. The reason energy ‘sticks’ or feels like a knock-out punch (whack) has everything to do with how much you are resisting!

In fact, resistance acts as a magnet for punishment and what you resist, persists! The same goes for if someone ‘pushes your buttons’ (this is a figure of speech). When a sensitive spot is hit, if you resist it’s going to feel like someone just stuck a knife in you. The good news is when you clear the energy of resistance the punishment  begins to clear as well.

You are not powerless nor do you have to fight or try to control the energy of others.  Your power lies in the ability to neutralize resistance to the energies or pictures that YOU are working on in your own life. The first thing to do when you experience a knock-out punch is to take time in meditation to find those places you resist. Be extra gentle with yourself and bring in lots of forgiveness.

A windmill does not resist the wind! It allows the wind to spin its sails and converts it to energy that is generated.  You too can stand tall like a windmill allowing the winds to blow and not resisting. You can use the winds as a learning experience and renewable resource to transform yourself!

You too like the windmill can use what you learned to further you on your life’s path so you are generating energy instead of being the effect of it! You can also resist and fight the winds…it’s YOUR choice~Shine Your Light Debbie

How will you show up in the world?

This post was inspired by a recent group healing session I took part in lead by Michael Tamura to heal Japan after the earthquake & tsunami.

How you wish to show up in the world is your choice to make each day. You can show up full of negativity and drama, holding on to the energy of others, with competition and ego OR you can show up full of love and shining the light of your true spirit for all to see!

The decision you make each morning when you wake up affects your day and possibly even your week, month and in some cases the rest of your life. It is by your choice and intent to do the work necessary to heal yourself and thereby healing others in the process. If you hang on to that which does not serve your higher purpose or are always responding to the demands of others, you are not showing up as you! You do not need to be controlled by those energies. It is your choice to break free from a painful past and show up in the world not based on that past and being a victim of circumstance but to show up generating energy full of love, forgiveness and compassion!

Showing up in the world as YOU, free from the encumbrances of your past or the energy of others takes courage! It takes faith and trust that who you are doesn’t need excuses, apologies or perfection. You are a perfect spirit being however none of us is a perfect human being. You have the free will to choose how you wish to show up in the word with all your human-ness.

It takes courage to forge a new path and stand up for yourself. Your choice and free will to show up as YOU begins the process of healing your life. If you choose to hang on to pain and fear, surround yourself with negativity, and continue to live the growth and drama of others in the name of healing, that is precisely how you will show up in the world. Full of negativity, pain, fear and drama….none of which is really yours in the first place!

Each day when you awaken, decide how you will see the world. Is the glass half full or half empty? Is the sun shining and creating prisms of beautiful light or do you choose to see the shadow and storm clouds? Do you choose to show up in the world full of love, light, joy and living from the present? Do you choose to show the world the light that shines from within or live in fear? Are you choosing your adventure?

Breathe in the golden light of love! Allow it to transform your inner being then exhale that same golden light of love. Breathe in your essence as spirit and allow it to transform how you show up in the world. It is your choice to see and be exactly who you are and show up in the world that way. It takes courage, strength and fortitude to actually choose how you show up in the world. I know you have the courage…so how will you show up today? ~Shine Your Light Debbie
