Tales of a Double Virgo
Episode #48
Essential Nutrients
i pulled some carrots out of my fridge this morning
and
i could feel my energy!
the planting.
the watering.
the love.
i got to thinking…..
if i could feel the love
the energy
i put in to my garden
and
what i harvested from it
what happens when food is planted by machines
harvested by machines
sorted by machines
sprayed by machines
with barely any human contact?
hmmmmmm.
i could FEEL my energy in the carrot.
not sure i’ve ever experienced that before.
it was startling
and
awesome!!
some more awesome~
‘that was the coolest thing i’ve ever done!’ said my 19 year old who got his first astrological reading.
‘how so?’ i asked.
‘it explained soooo much about me. it helped me feel better about how i am.’
feeling better about how you are. who you are.
bam!
nothing like a little self acceptance in the teen years.
things are changing
in case you haven’t noticed.
one of the things i’ve noticed about me
is that
the more honest i am with myself
the more authentic i become.
the more honest i am with myself
about how i TRULY feel
in any given situation
the more honest i am with others
and
the more real i feel.
up until now i felt like a fake
a fraud
and
i didn’t understand why.
i wasn’t fully accepting my truth.
things are a changing.
life is full of ah HA’s.
pretty freaking awesome.
i also realized
that the work i started
when i had my tea biz
doesn’t have to STOP
because i’m not working with plants like i was.
in my Dragon Lady days
i had a burning desire
to understand 3 things:
hormones
the nervous system
and
addiction.
i wanted like hell
to get to the root of these
and
truly understand
how they all work
and
how they may be tied together.
i had an Ah HA!
my work with these
has not stopped!!
yay!
i continue to crack more codes
to get deeper
and
i don’t need to be ‘DOing’ what i was to crack’m.
my addictions fuck with my nervous system.
my hormones sing for my addictions.
when all 3 are out of alignment
my heart pounds
my teeth hurt
i feel edgy and overwhelmed
i lose fucking control.
everything is connected
many of us are distracted
over booked
stressed
tired.
which taxes the nervous system
which throws off the hormones
which drives us to medicate……
deep breath.
consider this>
3 nutrients
that many of us are HIGHLY deficient in:
Creativity
Gratitude
Play.
Essential NUTRIENTS!
crucial for our well BEing!!
when was the last time you created just for joy?
do you want what you have? & feel fucking grateful for it?
have you danced lately? skipped down the road? played hide and seek?
how does connected feel to you?
can you connect intentionally?
to you? to the earth? to others? to all that is?
maybe our addictions need a gratitude injection?
scan your life for essential nutrients.
keep less from yourself. YOU deserve to accept your truth.
& feel your true self come alive.
REkindle your ability to Savor.
savor life
savor experiences
savor the moment
whatever it holds.
grow your food
and/or
buy your food from cool people.
and
when your thoughts are louder than your life
tell them to shut up
so you can listen.
if you have a burning desire to feel better about how AND who you are
