Finding your center in uncertainty - Self Help - Advice

Its easy to get thrown off center watching the news and feeling the unpleasant uncertainty of what is to come.

I spent hours surfing the web looking for predictions by economists, scientists, astrologers, psychics and then somewhere in that media overload I heard my inner voice saying, Return to your center, thats where the answers are.

Im reminded of the time I went hiking into the woods and found this amazingly beautiful ancient tree to lay against. The roots ran fathoms deep, the trunk reached up into the heavens. The experience there grounded me right into my center and just remembering that time and finding a photo of it helped to reorient me back to my inner truth.

Yes, Ive got a disaster plan, yes Im even thinking of getting a Geiger counter, but the next day ensues and my life is set up the way it was last week. An earthquake has not shaken my city, a Tsunami has not wiped it out. I have friends and family who are alive and well.

As an energyworker I have cultivated a great degree of sensitivity for people, places and things. When any of those falls into to chaos, Im very aware of it and feel it at an incredibly deep level.

But in order to keep doing the work I do, its imperative to come back up to the surface and continue on with life. The roots can still run deep, and always will, but the tree still needs to reach out its branches to touch the world, letting its leaves have room to share the oxygen which nurtures the planet.

My cat Suki is giving Reiki to my belly as I write this. She too is a sensitive creature and aware of changes. Her contribution is to help make more peace in the world for her environment, those that love and care for her. If we arent grounded, she wont be able to have peace. Thank you Suki for the reminder!

Tonight is another Reiki circle at East West. I suspect a lot of people coming will be in a similar place of needing to return to center, needing to remember that place inside them that never dies, never changes, regardless of what the external world is doing.

I feel honored to hold space for such transformation. As a group of twelve or fifteen people are shifted, so are all the people connected to themthe ripple effect reaches out across our community into the greater world. The ground begins to have a place to settle and honor the peace that is eternally present.
