Lesson 286: When Someone Dies...

When someone dies, we are reminded that this is also our journey. When someone is born, we are reminded of whence we came. Both passages are mysteries. The heart holds their only meaning.
— Sara Wiseman

Today we are to think about the cycles of birth and death. We are to notice it in our life and all the different ways it shows up.

I spent my Saturday cleaning the house for like 6 hours. From mopping, vacuuming, the bathroom and some serious dusting, I felt good achieving so much. My house is tidy and I feel good in my home. At night I went out to a gig and even though I was unwell, still had a good time.

In terms of a cycle of birth and death, I guess with my cleaning I would clearing away the dirt which would be death to give life to a clean, fresh state. Even though it’s not a direct birth and life situation, it still shows a cycle. As for the live music gig, I see it as both birth and death – birth of a new experience as well as death of the person I used to be because I didn’t have this experience beforehand. Because I am a medium also, a man in spirit came and stood next to me. He had medium dark brown hair, black jeans and a white tee. I don’t know why he came, but I think he just wanted to see Kygo in concert. It was kind of a funny experience because I could feel someone standing next to me. His presence was strong but when I turned to see him in the physical sense, there was no one there. I think him being there also shows both death and birth. Death because he was a spirit on the other side, but birth of me having a shared experience with a spirit that I didn’t know, and also didn’t realise I could have that experience with a spirit. I honestly think I was a beacon in that moment and he wanted to come and enjoy the show.

At night, I was just chilling into the night with my bestie and I had her father in death come along to pass on messages. It was quite emotional and he had so much he wanted to say. Again death and life in this moment. Not only was her father passed on, he needed to kill some beliefs my friend had that impacted her relationship with her father, but brought birth into her life on how she could move forward. It was very personal so I won’t go into detail though I’m glad that it showed I can help people and give new life to those that believe in what I have to say.

So those were my cycles for the day, what was yours?

Lesson 286: Do Nothing

Today’s lesson is to go to this website: http://www.donothingfor2minutes.com/ and just breathe through it.

I decided to close my eyes as I listened. I was instantly taken to a beach with a sunset. I was in a cove with a rockface that had greenery on it. It was nice to listen to the waves because it was soothing. It’s amazing how good natural sounds are to the mind and body. You can just allow your worries to fade away.

I think what’s important is that sometimes we’re always on the go, that we forget to just take a moment out for ourselves. We need those moments to re-energise ourselves.
