MEMORIEs, CHOICEs, LIFE ENERGY (CHAKRAS)

Sometimes in life we forget who we are along the way of so many choices. The Chinese...used to say that no matter what path you choose will always be wrong in your choice. Now, i don't pretend to know more than the Chinese philosophers...but somehow that just does not work for me. Our choices are the result of how much information (data) we have gathered about an event...combined with a mixed of preconceived notions most of which are either false, wrong, or imposed by others over a period of time. Ah, well from the point of Physics I forgot random. Also false memories come into place to complicate things further and that is why after a while an event can be remembered completely different by two witnesses.

Sometimes and this is for you my friend D., the best recourse is to do nothing. In silence you find strength and answers. When we feel alone, guilty and misunderstood we tend to try to escape...what feels uncomfortable...I done it too many times, i am guilty too, either that be a city, a marriage, a situation...we always think that what is unpleasant must be wrong.  However...you and I know...that is not the case...Causation does not mean correlation..right my nerdies...?

Our memories makes us who we are or who we think we are since also our perspective of ourselves is tainted by that of other's expectations on how things suppose to be. Have I lost you yet?  As a massage therapist I have learned a lot not only about the human body...but about the human soul and need for care. I will explain and I think some of you might love this since most of these teachings come from the Chinese and Hindu natural or alternative medicine approaches which were vigent much earlier than palliative medicine existed in the Western World. 

When I first have contact with my client during a massage (you can do a little prayer) I enter their magnetic field. Sometimes you can feel right away where the illness, hurt, nerve damage, or area that contains the stagnation is. Now the Hindu system of Chakra Healing makes a lot of sense to me. There are 7 Chakras each one is represented by a color and a location in the human body. All 7 must be in balance..well the 7th one is reserved for those enlightened and only few will ever conquer it... but the Chakras related to what is affecting your soul will affect your body. "Mente sana, corpore sano?"

The 7 Chakras are: Root, Sacral, Navel, Heart, Throat, Forehead, and Crown. Each one of us has more or less of one or the other depending on our inner health and spiritual balance. Root represents stability and support and without it...the others cannot survive...Are you grounded? If you are uncertain about things constantly...changing with no direction and no goal...your root chackra is out of whack! This is the first thing you should fix...

The second chakra is Sacral (sexuality) need i need to say more? You all know your business okay? Now the third chakra is the navel chakra self confidence, will power, feelings, sensitivity comes from here (prana) is the universal life energy.  

The Heart Chakra (humanity, empathy, love, compassion...). The heart chakra is important because it links the lower chackras with the highest one..thus without love...none of the chakras can be in balance. The Throat Chakra (truthfullness, intelligence, communication, musical talent). Think about this Chakra when you are making comments about your neighborhood...your words also have power it comes from the Throat Chakra.  The forehead Chrakra has to do with visualization of others feelings, fantasy, imagination and self-knowledge also called the 3rd Eye. Finally, the Crown Chakra spirituality in higher planes, knowledge of God, self realization...now some men will try to attain this in vain...and feel it is their fault...but how can you get to the 7th when your first Chakra is not working. You have to be grounded in the Earth to understand the Divine!

Now I have noticed that in general people will turned to vices and no very smart decision making when the root chakra is out of whack...somehow they decide to try a bit of everything maybe eventually i will found out what i like. Is this happening to you? I can give you some tips on how to harmonize all these...so my question is what is bugging you now...if you feel out of balance either affectionately, chemically, etc....you are doing a deserviced to yourself.....So remember your memories get stored in your muscle not only in your brain...your memories produce electrical sensations that get recorded also in your muscle fibers...creepy huh?? So what is your first memory?

My first memory is of my mother. I remember lying down on her bed and feeling the warmth of the white wool onesie i had on. I remember the surface flat but bouncy of my parents bedroom mattress,  this love unexpected brought me comfort. I was only one month old.
