I received some messages tonight from my meditations. As per usual, these messages are just as much for me, as for other people!
At the core of this message, is that maintenance of the body, mind and soul is very important. Maintenance reminds us to not get stuck in a rut, and to get out there (or get in there!) and do what is required to shift energy around.
By this, I mean that energy isn’t too different from a boat. It wants to cruise down, or upstream with fluidity. Solid rocks or unhealthy vortexes of energy within this river simply reduce the speed of transition / ascension / fluidity / flow.
I myself have always had issues with my back and neck, and this is a strong reminder for me that I need to be stretching and exercising my back much more frequently.
The gym has worked absolute wonders for me in terms of getting tension out of my back. This has been achieved through various strengthening and flexing exercises.
Excessive use of computers due to work and play, have resulted in an unbalance in my back, resulting in both overworked and underused muscles. If you could see my spiritual body (or real body for that matter) on a bad day, it would probably look like the hunchback of notre dame.
Stagnation of kinds, often results in RSI (repetitive strain injury) or quite frankly the opposite of that (not sure of the technical term here). The irony of repetitive strain injuries is that often they are created from not doing anything about the problem, despite the name implying they have done too much!
As per my spiritual energy section (https://asoulopinion.com/spiritual-energy/), everything is connected, and one thing doesn’t live in isolation… everything is connected.
Through work at the gym, and self-healing Reiki on my hands / wrists, I have almost eliminated my RSI in my wrists. This quite frankly has been a game changer! Also through routine gym visits, I have tripled my strength in certain muscle groups in around 6 months. This is quite pleasing to see, and I’m still on an upward trajectory!
The spine – the highway of the spiritual system
Whilst meditating, it is very common for me to shudder and jolt with the energy ramping through the system. I’m still unsure exactly of what this is, but it’s safe to say it’s surges of energy of kinds.
Often I will be inclined to move my arms around, or sometimes even shake quite vigorously. For me this connection with breath and physical movement really amplifies my energy. Often this then works in collaboration with Reiki self-healing of kinds. This mix of vigorous and soft, reminds me of a spiritual massage of kinds, where the denser ‘tissue’ is dissolved, followed by a more smoothing ‘settling’ of energy/tissue.
With the analogy of our spiritual energy being a river, the spine, in my opinion, plays a critical role in the channelling of spiritual energy.
This spiritual energy doesn’t live in silo to other elements of the body, quite the opposite, it interacts with the system as a whole.
If the body is malleable, and the spine is well stretched and looked after, this will also help accelerate, or ‘increase the bandwidth’ of the spiritual energy system as a whole. This is why yoga and various exercises greatly help in tandem with other activities such as meditation. The two complement each other, as they increase the placidity of the mind, body and soul.
Today, I was blessed with the presence of the christ light. Today in the form of a cross, which was a very powerful symbol for me. Given that I had put a little extra effort into some mild yoga (downward dog, cobra / upward facing dog) and a few moderate neck stretches, I really felt the energy ramp up a few extra steps…. Score!
The spine – the electrical highway
Whilst the brain plays a huge part in the Whole Entities System (mind / body / soul), the nervous system reaches throughout the WHOLE body, and is a system in itself. Whilst some people think the nervous system ‘plugs into’ the brain, I would like to think that the spine and nervous system are very connected with the feeling of presence, and more connected with the holistic elements, whereas the brain is more focused on logical paths and extreme creative processes.
Needless to say, electricity is a less dense form of energy and is extremely fluid and capable of great change, within extremely short periods of time.
Through meditation, and through listening to the body, the whole system will ultimately be more relaxed, and flow at a greater rate. Whilst going to the gym or yoga may require periods of extreme stress, this stress can often be seen as the physical stretching of the body, in order to keep it nimble and reduce the chances of it ‘recoiling’. The body for instance will achieve a much faster time when running, if the body is warmed up, and maintained throughout the week.
Jumping out of bed at 11am, hangover, and a stomach full last nights kebab isn’t an ideal prep for a 5k fun run.
Back onto the concept of the electrical highway… if you had a computer, with multiple faults, many of the triggers / sensors will be on red alert, calling for significant change to the control tower (the brain / cpu / central system). If there are few, to no issues in the system, the system will be fully powering up, and running at maximum pressure, as it totally capable of achieving such massive fluxes of energy. Energy after all comes in all shapes and sizes, and being maluable to those changes in frequency / energy types, simply opens us up to new positive frequencies, which can open us up to ever greater energy shifts.
Whilst it’s great to think of our electrical highway as this massive sensory network ‘feeding back to the brain’, I believe it goes beyond this. I believe that this electrical network goes both ways. Not only is it feeding information from the body to the brain / spine, but it is also feeding information from the brain / spine to the body. Electricity is a fairly unique energy vehicle, and spiritual energy loves to tag along with it.
When looking at the chakras, it comes to no surprises that the energy centres, align very well with the spine.
The spine – the chakra connector
When we meditate, or exercise, or limber ourselves up in various ways, we push that positive energy, at the speed of light, to our physical body. What a treat for our physical self!
When I connect through meditation, I often visualise my connection with earth, and with the starts, via the spinal system. The energy vibrating through this space is vast, as it really is the tree trunk of the body.
This can also be used to our advantage, because shifting of energy can be done at this meeting point in our body. I often see visualisations of lines in horizontal positions turning into lines of vertical. This to me represents all the blockages that are relaxing and allowing for energy to flow. Quite literally, gates are being opened, and energy is flowing. This increased bandwidth greatly increases the rate of cleansing I can experience.
Whilst putting in significant time into meditation is a massive positive for my physical / mental and spiritual body, I will say that Reiki will go where it is needed, and sometimes whilst that Reiki is great, I could have sorted out those problems by doing a little stretching every now and then.
Whilst micircles are possible, sometimes doing that physical effort can significantly help with the flow of the mind / spiritual body.
Once again, this post is just as much about me, as it potentially for you, so I hope this has helped in some kind of way!
Peace.
