The Divine Balancing Act
When I was a teenager I spent a lot of time on my computer, playing games, experimenting and exploring. Computers were black and white, they did what was expected, I knew where I was with my computer. It was no wonder my love of computers lead me to a degree in Systems Analysis and 20 years working in the IT industry. It was what I wanted in my mind.
But I was young and I was on autopilot, doing what our education system had trained me to do. Learn different subjects, choose one you like, get a job in it. Stay in your mind, avoid your heart.
But there was more to me. For as long as I could remember my heart had always yearned to be in nature, to escape to the countryside and to be surrounded by trees and nature. It was my heart’s calling and it was perfectly and completely overruled by my mind every time. Like an inner battle being played out.
It was only when I was in my late 30s that I was forced to take action on my heart’s yearning. My life was in a mess and I was unable to work. I had to sort myself out. The soft whisper of my heart was now a clarion call. My heart lead me to the Amazon Jungle and to follow the path of the Shaman, see my previous blogs. But the real work that was happening within me was about balance.
My heart was asserting herself and putting my mind in his rightful place. My masculine objective, analytical mind was being gently invited to take a back seat and allow my feminine intuitive, gentle heart to be nurtured.
Sometimes I wonder how it took me decades to achieve a better balance. With hindsight it seems such an easy transition, from living 100% in my mind to now living from my heart and using my mind too. And then I look around at the world, at our education system, at the other institutions and the culture of our so-called “Developed Western World”. It is then that I realise the mountain that I climbed in forty years to overcome all of that and finally achieve balance.
I’m sure you see this too. The sensational imblance that we have in our world. Where we have allowed institutions that were originally created of the people, by the people, for the people, to become infiltrated and corrupted. We are living the consequences of that now.
What is to be done?
My guidance from spirit has been very simple. Stay in your heart. Choose love. By choosing to stay centred in our heart and respond to life from our heart we eminate and spread love to the world. And the world could really use that now!! Love dissipates fear. Fear cannot occupy the space where there is only love. Love is a whole different vibration!
But that is easier said than done right? We are being invited into fear through all the usual channels: main-stream-media, social media, government etc. So what we need are tools that connect us back to our heart and return us to a place of love, so that we can go about our day from that calm and happy place.
And this is why my wife and I have created Healing Unlimited. A monthly online programme of healings and meditations. Learn more today and see how you can take the stress out of your life and return to the best version of yourself.
