I have been practicing many forms of healing arts (think massage, meditation, ayurvedic, yogic, sound, light, etc) since 2001 and am amazed that I am still trying to "figure it out."
Life is hard, pain stinks, brains are complicated, health issues can leave you feeling helpless. But I still think being human is pretty darn cool.
I met with Dr Paula Apro the other day regarding a NeuroVizr (more on that later - way cool), and she spoke about health in the form of layers, from a quantum healing perspective. Then I was at a Yoga Ashram last week, and we talked about being a healthy human by being very in tune with what enters our five senses. Then I thought back to my many years of Vedic training during my Thai Massage decade with Kam Thye Chow- Pitta, Vata, Kapha. WOW, my head was spinning only to arrive at the coolest conclusion......it's all the same thing. They are just different ways to approach the body and mind for optimal health. Which method is best is up to you. I come from the who cares, take what you need and leave the rest approach. I love it all. It all makes sense to me. Is Western Medicine included? Sure, but again, I take what I need. I use my knowledge to meet me where I am at because, as a human, I am a moving target. Sometimes peaceful, sometimes a whirling dervish.
Now why the Nesting Dolls picture? To circle back to Dr Apro, her description of true health aligned perfectly with mine, but she said it better. She is ridiculously smart. Here is my version because, of course my memory sometimes fails me. But I am working on that too. Because you can and should work on it.
Levels of being a healthy human:
Physical
Energetic
Emotional
Conscious
Spiritual
Now, all of these are defined by you. Don't let any of those words make you feel all woo woo freaky deaky run for the hills.
One thing you can't disagree with is - p**p runs downhill
Feeling healthy and energy is off - you feel like p**p
Feeling healthy and energy is great but, emotions are off - you feel like p**p
Feeling healthy, energy good, emotions good but, your mind is beating you with a stick - p**p is following you
and so on....
Why am I writing this? I find it very comforting to know that I can work on all 5 things and not just one. For example, if I only concentrate on my physical pain, I can't set my body up for proper healing. Make sense?
If not, no big deal. Thanks for listening. I love talking about this stuff and I am here if you ever feel like one of your dolls has run over your other doll. Or sometimes it may feel like all your dolls ran away. I promise you, just like humpty dumpty, they can be put back together again.
This post has no AI and no grammar check. Take it from my heart because that is where most of the good stuff is anyway.
Peace
