“We must starve the fear loop of our attention, and energy – look away, raise your vibration above it like a balloon flying above the storm.” – Chautauqua

So, you’ve been on the spiritual path a good while now, and feeling pretty OK with your progress. You’ve read the books, attended the whole life expos, and generally processed & integrated your assets off. In your quest of becoming you have opened your heart, learned gratitude and forgiveness; all while wrestling with your ego for control of your life. Because you know what it’s about, you just say you’re a work in progress.

It certainly hasn’t been easy getting to this point, and all indications are it’s about to get a good deal more difficult in the days ahead. These are halcyon days we’re living through, lots going on that demands our attention; maintaining ourselves is more important than ever now…and maybe you even sense that too. Have you noticed recently that some hard lessons & bad memories have returned from whatever void you banished them to?

In recent months have you suddenly been overwhelmed by these negative memories & emotions from the past; when you weren’t even thinking on the subject to begin with? Most likely you haven’t done anything to trigger such a release, so you sure as hell don’t expect them when they hit. Have the ugly brothers regret, remorse & resentment been trying to move back into your subconscious?

Been wondering to yourself lately why so many of these gremlins have returned so long after you healed that wound and balanced that energy? What is going on here? Knowing you did things right the first time, you cannot understand why these ghosts have come back to haunt you at this critical time. I call them ghosts because that is kinda what they are; heavy negative residue left over from “the old days” before you got your chakras and aura back into good shape.

These negative echoes from the past can get you doubting yourself and second guessing everything you believe spiritually, and they seldom travel alone. Part of what’s causing all this disharmony is “separation anxiety” from 3D reality structures. Everything we’ve ever known & counted upon has gone away, never to return: and it grows more distant with each new horror or nightmare we bear unwilling witness to. Seeing what we’re being dragged down into makes us second guess a few other things as well; and such are the things that give rise to the ghosts from healings past.

Are there other contributing factors, you bet! Although healed, those old trauma’s left behind a souvenir in the form of scar tissue; which influences this melancholy release of these old memories…emotional scar tissue: leaves evidence of itself behind the same as physical tissue does; you just can’t see it! Because we cannot see it and aren’t expecting it, this emotional scarring can trip us up & throw us off balance quite easily, and we almost never see it coming.

So, it really isn’t so much the pain from the past that’s surfacing, but more like shadow of the memory of it. It’s kinda like trying to bury an old useless tire that just won’t stay buried.* As far as I’m aware there is no way to restore this old emotional scar tissue to like new condition. I think maybe the best way to deal with these things when they surface, is to gently acknowledge them; thank ’em, bless ’em then put ’em to some good use … as trail markers of your spiritual journey, to look back at how far you’ve come, and the obstacles you had to overcome.

This whole process can be even harder if those in your immediate inner circle do not share your spiritual values, or have only recently been jarred from slumber by the great awakening; in either case, they have their own pressing problems to deal with. I understand that very often spiritual & metaphysically inclined folks are drawn together but this isn’t always the case. Additionally, there are many others who are alone by their own choice, for whatever reasons. Solo travelers on the spiritual sojourn.

Good childhood memories are also to be expected to surface right along with the ones we’d rather forget…and for similar reasons. Part of us senses that things are never going to be the way they once were, its like we’re saying goodbye for the last time. This whole process of good & bad memories flooding into the consciousness can even make one think they’re about to die because its like seeing your life flash before your eyes.

Hearts, Minds & Dreams

We see a lot these days about raising our vibration…part of which is cutting away dead weight that drags us down. Like the hot air balloon, we cannot rise until enough dead weight is cut loose. Fifteen years ago when I was active within the human potential movement, I dragged a computer with me everywhere I was booked. This contained several of the day’s leading biofeedback software programs including the Aura video station, and an amazing program from Heart Math; called the Freeze Framer. The main feature of this software was a biofeedback game where you could fly and control a hot air balloon using only your mind! Spooky cool stuff. Continue reading . . .
