Visualizing Ease: Relief From Hormonal Discomfort

We are not here to solve the mystery of our bodies. We are here to go into it. We suffer when we want to close the distance between the way things are and the way we want them to be. But what if instead, we used our energy to focus on what's happening right now and then introduce small and subtle shifts to the way we perceive it?

The practice of visualization is proof that we are not confined to our bodies. In our minds, we are able to travel through time and space, imagine completely novel scenarios, and even invent worlds. This practice breaks us free of the confines of our bodies. Our minds can bring us to a limitless space, liberated from things like borders or physical hindrances.

A "frequency" is just a word I use to describe a mood or a vibe. It often feels like moods are out of our control; we can be hit with one and suddenly we're disoriented. It feels like we are trapped somewhere inside this mood, powerless to do anything. But there are, in fact, subtle shifts that we can make in our energetic experience of the moment that can lift us up and out of a heavy frequency and into a healing one. It may not stop the pain or discomfort, but we can be with our discomfort, resting in a healing frequency. It's easy, watch.

This meditation can be used daily as a practice of first regulating the nervous system, and then gently tuning your frequency. The idea is: find a baseline for your energy and then make subtle changes in order to "be" in a different place. We may never be able to cure our bodies of whatever symptoms we have — bodies can sometimes just be uncomfortable places to live. But, we can shift our energetic response to the body by simply going to another frequency.

This is an emotional first-aid for hormonal discomfort. Use it anytime you feel overwhelmed by where you are. It's useful for both physical and mental discomfort, and you may find it is useful after the Regulation Meditation. Challenge yourself to try to change your frequency before beginning, so that you can start out in a neutral or even "higher" frequency than pain or discomfort. You can be "at ease" with pain and discomfort, I know it.
