Sometimes raising the bar motivates greater achievement, such as in athletic or even academic competitions. It might also bring higher sales or allow you to incrementally overcome a fear of speaking. In spiritual development, however, raising the bar can impede soul evolution. Dis-ease can occur when you increase your expectations of yourself and/or your life. Yes, as Maya Angelou said, “When you know better, you do better,” but knowing better includes accepting your inevitable stumbles.
Impatience may surface along with spiritual gifts and awakenings. After connecting to divine energy, you might want to skip the hard parts (who doesn’t?) and head right to the goodies, the peace and ease promised by enlightenment. Patience accepts the present.
Judgment of self or others may also assert itself when the spiritual bar gets raised. You may wonder why you can’t master what you understand intellectually. Answer: when your awareness stays with you moment to moment, even during triggering ones. Or perhaps you wonder why others seem stunted, apparently not interested in progressing spiritually. Answer: each person owns on their personal journey and awakens on their own timescale. Releasing the urge to evaluate your progress, your life, and other people represents another evolutionary leap.
In Jin Shin Jyutsu® (JSJ) Japanese acupressure, raising the bar relates to the JSJ attitude of fear. Harmonize fear with the Organ Function Energy Bladder and Kidney, Safety Energy Lock 23, and/or your index finger as self-helps for thirty-six out-breaths and in-breaths or until it feels complete.
What alternatives to raising the spiritual bar would you suggest? Whatever measure each of us chooses to embrace or sidestep, may we all view our humanness as part of the landscape, neither magnified nor diminished.
The Main Central Vertical (MCV) flow and self-help from the ancient healing art of Jin Shin Jyutsu harmonizes everything physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. In this post, I discuss specific projects harmonized by MCV and how to apply MCV.
About three weeks ago, my 56-year-old physically fit husband experienced paralysis of his right side following a stroke. Today it's like his stroke never happened.
Some Jin Shin Jyutsu self-helps for managing emotions, enhancing immunity, and supporting our lungs. Also, I'm hosting free Immunity in Community gatherings.
We open with a 45 minute or so Akashic Records consultation. The revealed themes, patterns, and disharmonies drive the table work in conjunction with your "pulses," body reading, and my intuitive insights. A follow-up e-mail documents what occurs during the energy work and includes customized self-helps.
In this work, you remain fully clothed. Just wear whatever will feel comfortable while lying on my massage table. If it's a remote session, I'll ask you to rest while I send energy.
Please consider the personal or interpersonal disharmony that led you to me and how you would like it to shift. During the session, we'll explore and address the origins and drivers of each "project."
No, the records aren’t a good resource for predictions. If there’s something you hope will happen, the records might reveal a series of necessary steps to reach your desired outcome but not the timing. For predictions, please consult a good psychic or astrologer!
Minors are under their parents' legal and energetic jurisdiction until they are 18, regardless of their maturity level.
The greatest benefit occurs when I incorporate all four modalities I practice. The option without the Akashic Records is appropriate for children under 18 who cannot receive readings. A stand-alone reading can bring insight and healing but does not involve my direct interaction with your energetic and physical bodies like my other practices.
No, but you are welcome to record sessions yourself.
Self-helps, both from Jin Shin Jyutsu and the Embodied Energy System, support your continued harmony, accelerate your evolution, and empower you. Plus they make you sparkly!
