How energy from the lower body gets thwarted to form a static or phantom upper body energy throw that drains us; Emotional re-connection to Earth; Practice of connecting tongue to the roof of the mouth
Dear Ed,
I cannot tell you, how many times I found that the time in a person’s life when their physical health boomeranged out of control was when they were removed from their earth connection. Some moved away from their hometowns or homelands to a place where their activities did not allow them enough opportunity to reconnect to the earth.
Connecting to the earth isn’t just about walking bare-feet in the grass and physical exercises. It’s also emotional. It’s VERY emotional. As children we instinctively love our earth and trust it.
However when our life experience goes sour, or we get shocked by betrayal or a tragedy, our trust breaks. Our basic primal trust.
I know this because once in a moment of extreme trauma in my life, I found myself getting angry with my mother for not stopping it.
There have been times, my son as a baby yelled and screamed at me because his stomach was hurting. To him, everything that happened to him was because of me, for better or worse.
We have this primal connection to our mothers, and to the earth, where we get angry with them because they’re the ones holding us and feeding us.
The earth is feeding us all the time, we ARE earth, we are cells of earth. We ARE earth body.
Shock, trauma and loss of faith because of extreme sorrow, these we can subconsciously use to emotionally cut off from earth.
See Ed, as children, the earth teaches us things all the time. Most of us live by it. Then when tragedy hits us, we feel like what the earth, through our bodies, taught us was all wrong. This is no heaven of breeze and flowers and beautiful things. This is hell. And the world which is immune to the being of the earth and nature, that world is right. The things taught by the world of money and plastic things and bank accounts and the use of force; that world’s the way to survive.
I’m just giving you an example of the subconscious feelings one goes through when our faith in nature is hit by shock or tragedy.
Some people can remember when this happened to them. When they lost faith and cut off emotionally from the earth.
Some can’t because the trauma was hidden, or prolonged till it wore them down slowly to snapping quietly one day.
For a lot of people it was around the age of 9 or 10, just in-between childhood and puberty.
I wish, Ed, there were one simple fix for it. If I ever find it, I’ll tell the world about it.
But the fact is, there IS a way to heal but everyone has to find their own way to it.
I write this article because I find that just being aware of the problem releases the energy to start on that healing and re-connection path. Continue reading
