Many of you have probably heard that what happens externally is a direct reflection on what is happening internally. This easily makes sense in simple situations where we can see when we are calm and unattached to outcome internally, externally things seem to have a more ideal outcome. However, blow this concept up to a larger COVID-19 pandemic scale and this concept starts to seem like it’s full of holes. How on earth could us being calm internally have any desired effect on a virus that has spread across the whole world in a matter of months?
How is our energy in any way capable of shifting something that has such a strong energetic wave to it? And if the external is a reflection of the internal, what inside ourselves has helped to create this external situation of fear, death, poverty, social distancing, etc.? I’ve been asking the same questions for many days now and have sat with other intuitives on this concept. It has become very clear that I was previously looking at this COVID-19 situation too much from the external and not enough from the internal. I had to break the questions down into simple, personal pieces so I could understand the whole more clearly…
To begin, let’s start with our body….
Each area of our body is broken up into planes of realities that have their own spoken language, set of belief systems, and resulting functionality. For instance, the brain/mind has the whole mental plane (which we are all very in touch with) where thoughts, ideas, and action oriented controls are set into place. When things are going well, the mind may have a few thoughts rumbling around, but it still feels airy, clear and light and functions with ease. The more things we have to do and hold in that plane (which often happens when we are more engaged with the internet, pursuing perfection/control or not breathing), the more this plane starts to become more erratic, heavy, manic and/or foggy. Our functions aren’t as fluid and burnout of some sort beckons at the edges of our reality. Likewise, the root system (our kidneys, adrenals and bladder) also has its own plane of existence. It is in charge of discerning what we absorb and get rid of before it leaves our system as well as how we respond to internal/external stress. It also happens to be our fear center that is linked to our inner child. Essentially, it holds our deep programmed fears. When the root center is clear, it is able to receive information and discern it easily, creating a calm fluid energy as it does so. When the process is imbalanced, the energy will become more tense, tight and turbulent, leading to low energy, a tight stomach, burnout, anxiety, light-headedness… you get the idea.
When one or both of these planes becomes imbalanced, fluid communication and information processing starts to breakdown. As this happens, both areas then have a tougher time processing and absorbing both nutrients and information. As the root system tries to communicate to the mind, it’s cloudy information has to first pass upwards through the stomach, chest and neck, where it sends out its feeling/vibration as well as picks up other feeling/vibration that is already there. Naturally, if the root system doesn’t have a clear message to begin with, any excess information will just add to cloudy information. Once the information finally reaches the brain/mind, how then is the brain/mind supposed to hear a clear message when it itself is cloudy?
So what is the result of discordant planes of reality communicating within the body?
Anxiety, confusion, feeling off, the inability to understand what is going on, not knowing what to absorb and what to let go, feeling unsafe and unsure of oneself. These feelings of discordance all lead to fear. When we are unable to understand what is going on inside and make easy sense of it, we start to distrust our bodies and seek understanding elsewhere — outside of the body. The more we separate from our bodies, the less we feel. The catch here is that feeling is linked to intuition. Intuition comes from within our bodies. We have deep intuition when each plane (mind, heart, gut, etc.) of our internal realities has a congruent feeling (or vibration). When all planes are in alignment and resonate with the same vibration, we feel no internal resistance so the vibration holds true. Just like a pure note struck on a guitar, when the string is in perfect alignment, the note sings true. No resistance speaks to an internal truth. If we can’t feel internal truths, how are we supposed to understand external truths? And if we don’t understand internal and external truths, then how are we supposed to not live in fear?
Right now, we are externally experiencing a breakdown of communication within our body, which is directly being mirrored in our external world.
Many of us know how much we have been disrespecting and dishonoring Mother Earth. The same can be said of her creation: our bodies. Just like a mother who is so finely in-tune with her baby, so too is Mother Earth with us. However, as the child grows up and leaves the house, that communication between mother and child (the child which is JUST LIKE our inner child root system mentioned above) can become limited or distorted. We have seemingly left our mother’s house, not realizing that EVERYTHING around us is Mother’s house. The communication between our bodies and Mother Earth have become limited, cloudy and discordant, just like the communication between our root system (inner child) and our mind. And since we are so deeply connected to Mother (whether we realize it or not), she too is feeling this imbalance. Now imagine that all of us are feeling the same discordant energy. What then is the result?
An imbalanced, fearful system that has discordant energy… energy like global warming, tornadoes, severe drought…
So what can we do to help bring the world around us into balance?
We have to go deeper in our bodies. The connection between Mother and child is found deep within the body. It is a quiet pulse that has not left our cellular memory. It is a vibration that is beyond the external noise that can only be found when all external noise is not focused on. It’s that space inside that mirrors the tranquility of a beautiful paradise beach or a clear pool of water in the woods on a sunny day. It’s where everything is in flow and interconnected, a thriving ecosystem that is ever-changing and in-tune with the whole. As we dive deeper in our body, past the outside vibrations of noise that we have become so accustomed to, we start to hear and FEEL that pulse that links us to the natural internal flows that have always been there. We start to discern what is noise and what is our deeper reality. We start to remember our inherent vibration, awakening deeper perceptions and truths found within our body. We remember through feeling. Feeling is the language that links all separate parts together. It is like music, the universal language. Its beat, its rhythm, tells a story that all parts (planes of reality) can easily receive and when that beat and rhythm is heard and felt by every part, every part becomes linked to that musical story. As each part links and starts to embrace that music, the vibration starts to resonate more deeply. It picks up momentum and starts to become all that is heard. That wave then ripples out from the body into the world around us, being felt by those who are near. The more people are listening to the same beat, the farther the ripple spreads, reverberating out to our community and maybe more importantly, reverberating into Mother Earth.
So take this time to LISTEN. To delve into the root, past the fear, and hear the pulse of truth that is Mother. Sit with the fear, but don’t go into the fear. Instead feel that pulse and let any fear wash over you. You can easily do this if you feel that deep link between Mother and child, between root and Mother, where the feeling of safety and support resides. The more deeply you go, them more you give in to this process, the stronger your vibration will become. A strong vibration linked with a deep connection and resonance, will create a HUGE ripple effect within all that you are connected to. It just takes a letting go of our external world, and a realignment with the remembrance and connection to who we really are. We are Mother Earth. We are everything around us. The external is a direct mirror of the internal. We are all capable of so much more than we realize.
When we all do this, we will be able to create a world from a place of ease, knowing and tranquility, shifting the external fear and turbulence to that of interconnected, loving energy.
