Hello beautiful soul and welcome,

I am Julie Lewin,

Founder of the Arakira Self Healing Modality and your guide today for a unique journey into the wisdom of the Arakira Celestial Guidance Cards.

Today we delve into the message of the Mental Body Card.

This card reminds us that the mind is the vehicle of the ego,

Not the ego itself.

The ego is primarily formed through our awareness of others and the outside world.

It's shaped by society's expectations of each person to conform to values and guidelines considered acceptable behaviour in society's eyes.

In contrast,

Your authentic inner world is recognised through deep self-understanding and by observing yourself,

Rather than by constantly watching the outside world with its judgements and values.

I invite you to look within.

When you truly understand why you do what you do,

And if it's not ultimately serving or benefiting you,

Then the path is simple,

Choose not to do it.

Researchers have identified that our intellectual and analytical faculties are typically considered left brain functions,

While our creative and artistic faculties are generally associated with the right brain.

In our quest to lead a balanced,

Harmonious,

Happy and healthy life,

It's incredibly beneficial to consciously carry out activities using the opposite side of your brain to which you naturally participate in life.

For example,

If you are the archetypal accountant,

You would naturally participate in the left brain world,

And if you are the archetypal artist,

You would naturally participate in the right brain world.

The goal is to balance your left and right brain activity for optimal mental wellbeing.

Now let's move into a powerful exercise from this card to balance your brain hemispheres.

If you are naturally in your head,

Analytical,

And perhaps feel disconnected from the creative side of life,

A left brain tendency,

I invite you to do something innovative or artistic today to counteract the natural pattern of overstimulation of your mental faculties.

For example,

Draw or write with your non-dominant hand,

Brush your teeth with your non-dominant hand,

Stand on your left leg to stimulate right brain activity,

Open the door with your non-dominant hand.

And if you are naturally right-brained,

That is intuitive and creative,

Challenge yourself to engage your left brain,

Do a crossword puzzle or Sudoku,

And stand on your right leg to stimulate left brain activity.

Choose one or more of these activities and consciously engage the opposite side of your brain and notice the new sensations and how your mind responds.

I'll give you a moment to think about this.

Continue to bring conscious awareness to balancing your mental faculties throughout your day.

Remember,

Cultivating harmony between your logical and creative sides contributes to a more integrated and fulfilling life,

And return to this practice whenever you seek greater mental clarity or balance.

Thank you for exploring the wisdom of the Mental Body Card with me today.
