PATHWAY TO JOY AND HEALING

During the past two years, I have gained some insights into emotional healing process.  After the rise of my Kundalini, I experienced many energy blocks in my chakras and energy field resulting in physical pains and discomforts.  During these two years, I worked feverishly to heal my emotional landscape in order to release these energy blocks. Many of this recovery process corresponded with the maturity and unveiling of my higher self through releasing ego.

The first stage involved realization and acknowledging of my emotional landscape. This involved identifying my emotional, physical, and sexual abuse that I experienced in my childhood.  As an adult, this pattern of abuse continued in my life that I acknowledged and admitted to myself.  As s result of my emotional history, I developed destructive behaviors, judgments, and thoughts about myself and others.

During the second stage of emotional recovery, I began to change my perception about myself, including how I perceived my appearance,talents, and life through self love or unconditional love.   I became more compassionate toward myself, and as a result, I became less critical and judgmental, and more compassionate towards others, also known as nonjudgment.  My self esteem improved and I began to like myself more and more.

During the third stage, I began the practice of detachment or nonattachment where I no longer continued dependency relationships.  I began to give up co-dependency relationships by leaving those relationships behind.   Dependency is when we need others to survive in the world.  We know we are no longer emotionally dependent upon others, when they leave us or cannot meet our expectations, but we are not angry or upset at them.

In this fourth stage, I am in the process of learning surrender or nonresistance.  I practice living without expectations of outcome with others and events.  I finally understand that the more I resist, the more I suffer.  I come to accept my life as it is without trying to control every aspect of my life, and I have peace by allowing the Universe to take care of the rest.

I use emotional release practice, Observing Ego practice, and Accessing the Higher Self as my main methods of healing my emotional landscape. This can be found on my Blogsite homepage if you wish to try these practices.

During each of these stages that I experienced, I released more and more of my ego during each stage.  I am reacting less to things I cannot control in my life, I give myself compassion when I fail, and I do not expect anything from others, but graciously accept what others give me.

These may not be the stages of emotional healing for you, or in the same manner, but I hope you find this helpful.  May you find emotional healing within, Brooke (Copyright 2013 Kundalini Spirit with All Rights Reserved)
