What is wellness to each of us? And where do we go to achieve it?
I recall so well in about 1970 that my brother who lives in L.A. called to encourage, insist really, that I chant. He had connected with what was then Nicheren Shoshu of America, a Buddhist sect that chanted Nam Myo-ho Renge Kyo (sp.) for anything they needed/wanted.
I was washing dishes when he called, involved in my life in northern Minnesota with my husband and two children - and I had developed a painful spastic colon. As I continued washing my dishes, looking out the window of my kitchen, I began to chant, and the more I chanted the more relaxed I felt.
My practice expanded into joining the organization. Every day I chanted, and I could feel myself going within as I never had before, finding peace and well-being. My symptoms disappeared and have never returned. I continued this practice for several years and it taught me a lot about achieving wellness.
Over the years since I have produced other symptoms of varying severity. The most significant was the loss of my thyroid. The story of that journey is too complex to report here, but the upshot was that after it had been irradiated, a surgeon diagnosed a nodule and told me to schedule a surgery to remove it. I walked out without the appointment, knowing somehow that it wasn't necessary. During my morning walks I talked to my thyroid & the nodule - or to the area that had been my thyroid - and three times I clearly heard my Inner Voice say, "Benign."
That message gave me peace of mind, so I gave up seeing any doctors for it, and I continued to thank my body for its Wisdom. It wasn't long before my energy returned and my thyroid recreated itself. This may be common in medical terms. I'll never know. I only need to know that my wise System took care of it because I gave it the opportunity to do so.
Just how big is this System that has all the Wisdom it needs to rectify our well-being? I'm a person who is programmed to feel responsible for myself, so asking for help from others - even extra-dimensional others - was a stretch for me. Worth exploring, but not my first reaction to a symptom.
Recently, with some heart issues motivating me, I've expanded my acceptance about what is possible. Lying down one day after having some pain, I prepared for a meditation and asked for all the help possible to relieve the symptoms and to help me achieve a strong and healthy body.
Quite quickly I was surrounded by and filled with an energy that moved in unfamiliar patterns and identified itself as Metatron, accompanied by extra-dimensional beings I call the OHM. As they worked in and around my heart I fell asleep. Now they are always available, as I suppose they always were, accompanied by Jesus, whose presence I have counted on for 30 years.
What I've learned and now trust is that every cell in our bodies holds the memory of its perfect function. Given the chance to release the shrouds of accumulated compromising beliefs, these core functions can be resurrected - if that is our perfect plan.
Our perfect plan does not necessarily mean perfect physical health. If it did, we would all live into infinity. No, we have finite physical bodies for a reason. At least they are finite for most of us, and a discussion of Ascension with the body intact is for another day. Our finite bodies are a prime experience through which we learn ourselves, exercise our beliefs, and expand Cosmic Consciousness/the Mind of God. Our symptoms, mental, emotional and physical, are intended to exercise those options.
Enjoying our lives means addressing those symptoms the best way we can. Sometimes we need to employ a medical professional or a therapist practicing alternative means to assist us. I believe we are fortunate when we engage with our expanded Consciousness, calling on all the awesome help available, asserting the conviction that best addresses our symptom and surrendering control over what we cannot fully, logically understand.
Whether it's wellness of body, thoughts or emotion, we can feel the shift within ourselves as we accomplish our objective. In doing so, we also change the Consciousness, expanding access for anyone else who shares a similar journey. What a trip! And I am grateful.
