Rhythms of life…
Notice and enjoy..
This morning I have been reminded of the wisdom of life cycles… I have remembered something – that CONNECTION to CYCLES is the key to health, abundance and healing.
Let me offer you three musings from my morning.
In my garden, an amazing plant is growing – I call it the ‘asparagus tree‘ – but it is known more broadly as a ‘Century Plant‘ or ‘Agave Americana‘.
What is so amazing about this plant, is that it flowers every 10 years! And guess what – that’s right, it is growing it’s ‘asparagus’ stem (which gets as tall as the house!), and getting ready to bloom and burst forth with sugary goodness.
The last time this plant flowered was 2013! And, today I wondered what was happening in my life 10 years ago….mmmmm…. I was tight in the thick of primary school motherhood…and right on the cusp of of my Kinesiology and Mind-body medicine journey.
The Agave Desert Flower Essence I have in clinic is the ‘late bloomers essence’…. it helps you own your level of mastery and manifest your talents and strengths… indicating a time when ‘much inner work has been done’ (boy, I’ve done some this year!), ‘and now is the time for bringing energy of your deep inner connection out into daily life’.
I can’t wait to see what comes next for me and my family, after the flowering of the Agave this year!
Again, this morning I had an early morning session of a modality I am thinking of studying early next year. During the session I was reminded of another time I was exploring a very similar theme of learning… exactly 7 years ago!
This time 7 years ago, in 2016, I explored traditional healing with the amazing Minmia, an indigenous elder who shares her knowledge with all who are interested and respectful.
7 years ago, I wasn’t ready… In these past 7 years I have journeyed through layers of healing, joys and shadows… my children are now teenagers who’s independence is such a joy to me... through this 7 year cycle – I know that I am now sufficiently ready for, and have let go of enough, have healed what needed to be healed and am able to make the next leap of faith… wherever that will take me!
Seven years ago, was the year I turned 50… the year I went to the Rio Olympics for work… my eldest finished primary school…my Kinesiology work was part time and add-hock…
And, so, 7 years later, here I am reconnecting with Minmia, connecting with amazing people to lead me into a new and exciting healing modality… the timing is right and perfect!
And, so I am wondering how you can notice the cycles in your life… ?
- What has come into your life recently that you have seen before?
- When did that last appear?
- What was happening in your life at that time?
- Are there any similarities to now?
- What can you explore connecting the two times/events?
- Is there shadow or gratitude work you can start to play with in relation to this cycle?
Connect back to your life… touch base with the wisdom around you… allow the messages from the Creator to touch you and teach you.
