CA, resident of Africa and Nova Earth re-patterner, tells us about the Council of Love’s latest teachings and the wonder of new beginnings.
After attending Lake Tahoe via the Love Stream (1), I’ve been in a beautiful tailspin of excitement and promise! Ooooo yes, sounds intriguing doesn’t it?? Best you read on……..
The message was all about your Sacred Union, what’s that? I hear some of you cry. Oh yeah, we’ve got lots to talk about! So your Sacred Union is all about the relationship with yourself, the nurturing, the feeding of what your soul requires to be happy and whole.
And guess what people? That comes before the big man upstairs!? Yes, that’s right! You might find it hard to believe but you DO come first.
A lot of us find it extremely hard to receive, to give yes, but to receive, well, that’s a whole ‘nother ball game. Even when someone comments on your clothes, “Oooo don’t you look lovely in that outfit,” you respond, “Oh, this old thing! You’re joking right?” Bam, right there, a blatant rejection of a compliment coming right from their heart centre.
Even when you’re out for coffee, your friend might say, “No, don’t worry, I’ll buy these.”
A fight ensues…..”No, no, let me get it.” “No, I’ll get it.” Oh my word! Will someone pay for the coffees and just accept the abundant gesture. Either one of you, doesn’t matter, just accept for the love of God!!!
Yes, it just goes to show how much we block our abundance. This then reflects just how much we prevent ourselves from receiving what actually our souls crave, which then brings me to your Sacred Union.
My field, as you all know, is health and wellness. I’ve been a health practitioner for many years and it’s only been recently that I’ve started to feed and care for myself in a way I’ve never done before because I’ve never understood it.
The more we grow, the more does our self worth. So the more we value ourselves the more we understand how important we are.
So then we truly accept ourselves and wait for it……… LOVE ourselves. There you go, I said it, yeah I LOVE myself !!! High fiving the Council right now, even might throw in a chest bump while I’m at it! I want to talk about the care and feeding of you literally.
For many years I’ve been that high-intensity trainer. Yes, I’ve always taught the ‘holistic’ exercise like Pilates and yoga but most of all it’s been about sweat and hard work. Over the years I’ve slowly morphed into ‘mindful movement.’
Yes, exercise hard, sweat a lot but where are you coming from with it? Are you training externally or are you training from within, in the heart. When training in the heart centre you move more efficiently, in fact the body sings! It’s fab!
Recently I’ve had another awakening – yes, another one – I seem to have at least 4 a week! It’s mind blowing!
I came back after a short holiday and completely changed the dynamics of my studio, even my own training to 90 percent Pilates and the rest high intensity cardio. OH MY WORD, my weight has dropped, my body doesn’t just sing, it’s in an opera right now baby!
Everyday I’m excited to get up, rather than the impending doom I used to experience with the thought of vomit wrenching high intensity training. Being in agony the next day whilst duck taping my limbs to my body through fear of one of them dropping off!!
I then took a different approach to diet. I HATE diets. They are there to be broken and nobody should live a life of restriction when ‘feeding’ the self. I started the high fat, low carb way of eating. A very free and easy way of eating.
I suffered an emotional tantrum about 4 weeks in as I didn’t like the ‘thought,’ (and I emphasize ‘thought) of eating high fat.
So I rather rebelliously, pulled up a box of chocolate chip cookies, ate until I wanted to vomit. Felt that I had regained control by doing this, made a full declaration that I was going to eat as many biscuits as I liked – thank you very much – and I was no longer going to follow this high-fat revolution.
Well, the next day came and went. That evening I recalled what I had eaten for the day and without realizing it, I had eaten the high fat way!!!
So my point? As you all blankly stare at me.
Well………. if you get out of the way of yourself for long enough, your body will tell you exactly what it wants and needs to be ‘whole.’ My ‘thought’ was that high fat is wrong for my body so I was thinking with my ego.
Let that big ‘ol heart centre do the thinking and guess what? You ‘receive’ what you need, what your soul needs.
So you see, a gazillion people everyday are getting up and engaging in forms of exercise and eating which they neither like nor enjoy. Your body receives this as trauma. When you give your physical body what it needs, it will love you forever. Also, you need this physical body to be strong enough to anchor the light. Without this, it’s useless.
So this is a large part of Sacred Union. Its about balance. It’s about love – love for the self. It’s about joy. Be happy in what you do and how you do it.
Quote the Universal Mother Mary: “If it doesn’t feel like joy, don’t do it. If it doesn’t feel like love, don’t do it.” Word from the Mother – the Holy Mother!! You may have heard of her!
Thanks for reading, much love x
