Coming Out of the Storm
Healing Your Relationship with “Reality”
So, how are you doing? How are you holding up in this sea of change?
There is a connection, a bonding, of sorts. A karmic connection. A karmic bond, you might say, that connects us with our own “reality.” This connection is completely energetic … at first. Until it is not.
We all have our own personal history. We all have our own personal karma. Unique to ourselves. Connecting us to our own personal human experience. This karmic connection is the most impersonal thing imaginable. Our connection to “reality” is a pliable and changeable aspect of ourselves. There are billions of variations of karma playing themselves out on Earth today. In other words, although we all live on the same planet, how we experience it is completely unique to ourselves. It is our karma that decides our experience. But even then, how we experience our karma is also pliable and changeable.
You might think of your subconscious as a “running total.” A running total in regards to what we have, and have not, dealt with in our life. And also, in our (past) lives. You were born with a history of sorts. You were born with a karmic disposition of sorts. Another running total of your distant past. As adults, we tend to have settled into karmic ruts of sorts. Narrow corridors of behaviors and expectations where we feel the most comfortable. There is a karmic momentum to ourselves until we tend to the junk in our trunks (karma stored in our subconscious).
When we have a lot of unresolved karmic stigmas that we have stored in our subconscious, we are energetically connected to the world outside of us. For many people, they are not aware of this connection. Yet as the waves of change unfold, those waves can emotionally tug us up and down without our awareness. Have you attended a large gathering before, only to come home feeling wiped out? Not that you exhausted yourself through physical activity, but rather, you are feeling wiped out because you have been stirred up emotionally. Or, perhaps, you see a news thread or story online and your emotions get stirred up. If you spend too much time on social media, do you feel exhausted or upset? There is an energetic interaction with all of these examples. The more you have unresolved in your subconscious, the more there is to be stirred up. When you cleanse and heal those unresolved aspects of yourself, you energetically disconnect your emotional influence from what is happening from the world outside of you. To come out of the storm is to heal yourself from the inside out.
The more unresolved karma that we have stored within ourselves, the more elements there are in the world “out there” that can get us upset. It is our karma that decides our experience of life. We can, and typically do, have built-in reactive patterns that we play out over and over again. Where we have developed mental and emotional “preferences” that we follow as we go about our days. These preferences are largely a subconscious thing. For example, as I have shared many times, I had a huge amount of anger that I had pushed down into my subconscious for years. A huge amount of emotional energy stored in me. This anger was a huge karmic influence in my day-to-day life. Yet I didn’t know it was there. And I certainly didn’t know that subconscious anger was making most of my decisions as I would go about my day.
So, you could say that my subconscious anger was vetting my choices, and thus outcomes, as I went about my day. In my “reality” back then, it would be extremely unlikely that I would choose whole arenas of choices, because of my posturing with my unresolved aspects of myself. To come out of the storm, so to speak, is to heal those unresolved karmic stigmas that we are carrying around within ourselves. Once I connected with this anger, and started to release it, what I would choose, or not choose, as I went about my days … changed. Before, if I were around someone who was showing anger, I would want to leave. I would get my anger stirred up, which would trigger a mental re-action to the feeling, and I would seek to stop the feeling by leaving.
How could I stand up for myself if I conceded my side of the argument the moment any angry emotions showed up? My “reality” was dragging me through the proverbial weeds. My energetic attachment to my environment, as it related to anger, had me posturing with everything. Attaching me to the waves of the metaphorical storms. Our society has huge energetic waves being generated from the upheaval of the collective consciousness. The more unresolved energy we have within us, the more connected we are to the collective waves of upheaval. This can put us in a state of constant emotional reaction. Talk about feeling exhausted! The more you clear out your subconscious, the less energetically connected you become to the huge waves of the collective upheaval. This is healing your relationship with (your) reality.
I have been scrubbing my psyche for decades. In other words, I have been watching myself as I go throughout my day. When I feel my energy shift, because of some external event or circumstances, I want to feel whatever comes up. I want to feel it all. The good and the bad. The pleasant and not-so pleasant feelings. For decades, anger fell into the not-so pleasant category. But today, anger is a very useful emotion. Anger helps me recognize when I am not being congruent with myself. So now anger is a very positive emotion for me. It protects me, if I pay attention to it. I can actually decide how I react to everything in my life. It wasn’t always that way. I had been living in huge reactive patterns day after day. My life was a narrow corridor of choices. But now, I don’t get swayed so much by the unresolved junk in my trunk. All of my emotions have a gift for me, once I learned how to listen.
Got Karma?
