The Breaking Point
I reached my breaking point.
Sometimes we have nothing more to give: Not an answer, not a look, not a text, or a phone call, or a conversation, not even a hug.
It’s part of being human and we all do our best with what we have.
I used to blow up. Well, that’s not accurate. I used to yell to blow steam. Indeed, part of me wanted to run to someplace private and scream at the top of my lungs. Instead, I ran to the bathroom, sat down on the toilet seat and cried with my face in my hands.
Then, I went to the woods and the water nearby with my water bottle, my notebook, and pens and I wrote. I breathed. I looked up. I squatted down and put my hands in the water. I cried some more, and I walked home.
Since beginning to work with the angels, I’ve learned that it’s also important to “ground” my energy. This is done best by going outside into nature. It’s become like exercise for me – something I always knew I should do but lacked motivation. Now, it tends to be a 2 for 1. I get outside to exercise and ground, and I need both so much that I’m finding that even bad weather doesn’t hold me back. (I may be singing a different tune this winter when the temperatures sink below zero, but I thought the high humidity days would be a turn off this summer and I learned my need to get outside was greater than my dislike of a beet red and sweaty face.)
Breathing in fresh air, getting my feet on the earth, touching trees or water are not only grounding, but restorative to my soul. I am able to give Mother Earth the energy that feels “too much” for me for her to transmute into love energy. She gives me peace and an ability to go on so I can interact with the people in my orbit again.
Angels are always around, protecting and guiding us, but we live on Earth. It’s imperative to connect with the earth and feel the oneness with the life around us. We can give and receive...and it’s important to do both.
Mother Earth receives from me through my prayers and intention. I pray for her healing daily and imagine a pink cloud of Divine Love moving through the crown of my head and out my feet with each step. I know that this works - that through the vast network below ground, she is able to take this Divine Love and spread it quickly through the root systems to the trees, the flora and fauna, and any living being that uses them for nourishment. And in a happy coincidence, this Divine Love comes back to me.
The angels are encouraging you to get out in nature. It is through the natural elements that you will find what you need to heal you inside and out. And if you remember to send healing to Mother Earth, your healing will be stronger as it comes back to you.
