It has been said "You are afraid
to feel. Your feelings are vast and all powerful,
yet for many of you they are crosses of shame. How
ever it is through your feelings that you can ascertain
what you value " - Marciniak
We discern our world through our feelings
. They are an unsourced tool for discovering more
about ourselves and the world about us. Yet, as the
quote so rightly says, we are afraid, nay terrified,
of feeling. We block our feelings and hide from them,and
as a result we overload our cellular memory with our
emotional baggage .
Our bodies are perfect records, holding
every nuance of our lives .They hold all our memories
of the things we have done to others and how we felt
about it at the time, the judgements we have made
since .Besides all this, there is what others have
done to us and our emotions surrounding these things.We
also hold shocking or traumatic memories from our
lives which can appear to come' out of the blue.'
There are no accidents or coincidences, the universe
works and everything is a part of the rich tapestry
,even though we may be unaware cannot see it at the
time.
To illustrate this, I recently had an
opportunity to clear a very painful memory from my
birth canal. I have shoulder pain and so I went to
see my colleague who specialises in "un-winding"
the tissues. She found that the primary site was not
my shoulder, but my birth canal. As she said the words
, the memory of the birth of my eldest daughter eighteen
years ago surfaced, along with all of my feelings
about it at the time. As I began to cry, my colleague
felt a sudden 'whoosh' as the birth canal released
the tension and 'unwound', I was at that moment of
release, able to feel the feelings, acknowledge them
and let them go. Just imagine, for eighteen years
this memory had been sitting in my tissues.
Emotional energy such as this can cause
vibrational damage to the cells and eventually pathology.
One of the feelings that came up for me, was shock
As I am like a terrier when I know I have something
to clear,[ I ' worry 'at it until I achieve my intention]
I took some Bach' Star of Bethlehem' flower essence
which is for shock held in the cellular memory.
Five days later at a Reiki Share, some
more shock came up for me. It was a fourteen year
old memory this time- my next door neighbour had hung
herself and her husband came around to ask us to see
if she was dead. Two sets of memories from fourteen
and eighteen years ago , all filed away and stored
in my body as I had held onto them.
I am very self-aware, continually working
on myself and watching for signs, feeling the feelings
as they come up for me so that I can acknowledge them
, embrace [accept] them and then let them go. However,
previous to becoming a Reiki Master and taking part
in P'taah workshops as well as reading the P'taah
books, I had never heard of any of these concepts.
Fortunately , there are now many self
help books and people like myself who wish to teach
and inform.As a physiotherapist , I realise how many
people come with pain and that there is an emotional
component to the problem.
When something or someone angers you
,or strong feelings come in any situation, stop for
a second and do the following :Allow yourself to feel
the feeling, acknowledge [accept] it , then examine
it asking yourself the question' why, what is going
on ? ] Be honest with youself about this , you will
find the feelings will go ,then you will released
them before they settle again in your cellular memory.
Like as not, similar situations will repeat themselves
for you to examine them and feel the feelings and
have the opportunity to' clear' them .This will be
no coincidence , the universe is just working to help
you . Why ? So we can' feel the feelings', learn by
the experiences and, in turn , learn more about ourselves
, and discern the world about us.In this way , we
will not store the emotions as baggage in our cells.
