Have you ever screamed in a car, releasing frustration in the safety of a moving sound bubble?
I have. I did it on the way to the beach on Saturday morning. I journeyed to the soundtrack of my own anger, and I didn’t attempt to turn the volume down.
I held no fear or shame for allowing this energy to simply be, for I saw it for what it was: a highly-charged emotion that needed a little freedom to dissipate.
Our emotions often demand a primal response and whilst expressing our feelings is generally encouraged, let’s not mistake talking for fullness of expression.
More often than not, when we talk about our feelings, we create entire stories that go along with them and they’re often accusatory in nature — we’re blameful of another or of our circumstances for our highly-charged emotion within.
I didn’t want to blame or embellish my experience with words or attach my energy to anything outside of myself, denying the fullness of my energetic flow by holding something else responsible, so I drove through the dark hours to the dawn.
Whilst driving through the dark hours to the dawn was my actual experience, it could also be used as an analogy.
When we cling to our energetic experience, labelling it as Important, offering it reasons for being, judging our life by its presence, we solidify with our mind our experience. Rather than being scenery on our journey to the light, it becomes a blockade to our flow within.
The only important element of any energetic experience is allowing the truth of it to simply be, and for that, we don’t need a story, an audience, understanding; we don’t need another to confirm that our feeling is valid. ALL our feelings are valid, so let’s offer them freedom from all the justification that only serves to hinder our journey to the dawn.
When I arrived at the beach, I was not in a place of awe. I was not filled with an amazing realisation of who I am. Gratitude was not pouring from my Being, and I feel no fear or shame sharing that either, for being an “ideal” is not a motivation for me.
What is a motivation is honouring my truth in every now, and I feel strongly that this new paradigm shift is calling us to be authentic.
I am a healing guide AND I scream in my car sometimes.
I guide others to freedom within not by blocking the truth of my emotions but by allowing the All that I am to simply be.
If you want to talk about your feelings, talk about your FEELINGS. This is what I encourage in my sessions. I offer space for the truth of any energy-in-motion to be revealed. And for that, we need to shift beyond your mind so we can witness choicelessly what is.
We source, instead, from the voice of your Wisdom, asking it questions:
Where is the energy in your body?
What does it look or sound like?
How is it behaving?
Does it have a colour, a texture, a pattern?
How is your body responding?
What happens to this energy as you offer it the fullness of our awareness?
Does it begin to transform when the light of Love shines upon it, much like the various stages of this Saturday sunrise?
We’re curious. We talk about it truthfully. It doesn’t need a story, a reason for being, a why. It just is. We honour that isness. We allow its fullness. We allow it to speak through BEING.
When we begin to allow our feelings in this way, we shift from being an actor in a drama to being the Creator of a new reality within and without.
With Love Kirsty
