Call Back Your Energy
Where is your energy? Is it helping you become healthy and out of pain? Or is it Out There somewhere--Work, Relationships, Finances, Expectations, Resentments? In speaking about energy, what I am really saying is, where are your thoughts--what people, places, things, situations are you spending your energy on?
Would you like to have most of your energy available to you to help you get out of pain?
This is what you do. Draw a stick person on a piece of paper--the stick person is you. Next, draw a line out from you to where you are giving a lot of your energy. For example you may have a line out to a project at work, and one out to a specific relationship that is rocky at the moment, ect.. Keep doing this and label approximately how much enegy you are giving to this area of your life..You should get pretty close to 100% of your energy going somewhere.
Now, how much of that energy (thoughts) is Present time energy, or Energy (thoughts) in the Now, that is available to help you heal? Don't be suprised if it is less than 5%...
Take some time and investigate why you have energy going out to these External things and away from you....Yes, this is a way of repressing or you are allowing yourself to go outside while you deny or avoid your inner self...
Do you have any idea what happens when you call or bring this energy back to your inner self? It is amazing and it is transforming. So here is what you can do...For example the energy that is chronically focused on work/project--Make the choice to cut off that line you have drawn or image it as a circuit and turn that circuit off...Now image that energy that was focused on work/project/relationship/finances/past resentments/future expectations coming back to you...Yes you can image this by visualizing it or sensing it, or feeling it or just knowing it is coming back to you.
When you bring it back your intention is now to keep it with you for awhile...You do this by being mindful or present in whatever you are doing...Keep your energy with you in the now and whenever you notice it is attached somewhere outside, just bring it back again..
This is a very powerful, healing practice that you can have with you all the time...Remember if your energy is outside of you it is not helping you heal and it is actually helping to maintain your pain cycle. When you call your energy (thoughts) back you are communicating to this disorder that you are responsible and open to helping yourself heal.
