A bold title you say? If you will read the following paragraphs, considering the information in each one and then in context with the information in the others, you may be less skeptical. I base much of the following on the belief that, although the body vibrates at a lower frequency than does the mind, it communicates a measure of the Soul's energy all the same. And a primary purpose of the body is to tell us, point-blank and in its own language, what we often have not otherwise perceived. Learning to listen to this "Body-Mind" is likely the most highly efficient path for preventative health maintenance. It is also a primary means for reclaiming one's original essence and soul-infused Presence and "grounding" that via meaningful action on the earth plane. Why, or How ? The body performs this service not just in spite of, but largely by it's very design, storing previously-buried personal memories (and their associated resources), until perceived *safe* and/or *ready* to remember. The "chalice" aspect refers to the nature of our body as a vessel for transmutation of our "lower elements" into Light via life's dualistic predicaments. I'll say more on that in the last paragraph of this section.
(some of which can be fairly technical/analytical) with more links to still more pages here, leading to feeling spread too thin
on this site's very broad matrix <grin> -- I suggest scanning the whole page, noting the links as desired, before taking off to another page.
Let me clarify in regard to the resources that, what is also recovered, are the *means of access to* *inner* resources. And as any business person knows, access and opportunity are everything. In that light you may find interesting the charts in "Achievement of Goals, Attainment, & the Role of Inner Work - A Flow Chart of the Human Psyche in Growth Facilitation"How long an individual actually takes to begin "re-membering" one's whole self, when someone is "supposed" to delve into the mines of the unconscious, or even why one needs to store any particular memory, not to mention how, are some of those juicy conundrums that have inspired many students of psychology and spirituality. Could we be wondering somehow if it is through such ponderings that we may come to reveal depth and meaning to all aspects of our lives and to all life, to embody our ideals, to "re-enter-connect" one's whole Being ? And what really is "Whole" ? Related to that question is the essay, "A Gestalt Perspective" and "Seven Phases of Personal Growth." May not divine opportunities exist in any earnest striving for truth ? The below "Class Questions" are quite basic, on the other hand (in no way implying "easy" however), and are designed to help us look further into our own internal mind-body-spirit relationships.
of PAGEA term coming of age is "Body-Memory," and relates to how, when, where, and why experience on any and every level of awareness is stored in the body, accessed and expressed - consciously and/or unconsciously.
| A semi-technical explanation of that can be found in "Body-Mind Integration in the Personal Growth Process" - The how's and why's of psycho-emotional storage of tension in the body-mind May-June 2011: Addendum essays added with the goal of clarifying these topics as more easily understandable for *common sense* preventative maintenance application, as well as further completing the context and clarifying the dynamics and processes involved, including "Body Awareness and Communications, as Related to Body-Memory and Integration", "Muscle Q & A", "Insight Please", and "Sticky Muscles". For a highly technical view on that, you may want to check out "Fascial-based Emotional Memory Storage System...") How this correlates functionally to one's anatomy, emotionality, mental routines, psycho-spiritual awareness, path, purpose and integration, is not only fascinating, but actually describes an individual in a very practical way.
Few people in "modern society" survived childhood feeling safe to truly feel life from within their bodies. Result: we learn a mentally and emotionally armored, semi-defensive relationship with our bodies and our environment, yet strive to feel "the connection" with others. The musculature of the body can be "read" in terms of how it has been held and moved in response to ones environment. From this one can assess the connectedness among coping strategies, challenges, skills, and gifts, the mind, the body, and the emotions, and the path of one's self-knowledge, self-healing, and self-transformation, as elaborated in "The Body Pattern Assessment/Reading and Understanding the Pattern Triad" |

Considering all these aspects, one might say that all our conditions --- being based on events, one's *past* subjective perception of them, and how one reacted to them on the various levels -- is "psycho-somatic." On the other hand, we also have the capacity to learn to respond -- with conscious "response-ability" -- to life's challenges. One question I have toyed with is the relationship of aging to the effects of storing psycho-somatic material in the body over time. And there is the question of whether or not there is also built into these [mind-body-spirit relationships and related systems] an incentive to deal with the issues as we are given opportunities to clear that up. Perhaps the dynamic of 'pain' is related to this question (and perhaps the following essay <grin>): "WHY PAIN? Notes on Pain, Awareness & Denial" (Physical and other levels) -- Aspects in Developing a Practical Approach with Compassion
And speaking of incentives... Mind-Body Awareness -- as the bottom line of preventative health maintenance -- is one of the most simple, efficacious, & cost effective forms of health insurance there can possibly be! And such focused awareness to the body, which occurs naturally in massage therapy, brings circulation (of blood, nerve, Ki or Chi, and bio-magnetic energies), and thereby all of one's natural healing capacities to the cells. If you want any cell system to heal, improving the circulation to, around it, and through it (with regard to radiant bio magnetism) is basic and essential. And in very few cases is found complaining cells where circulation is plentiful near everywhere it's needed. Circulation improves where caring attention is directed -- on whatever level of focus and whether the attention is from external or internal sources.
Like kids, cells do best if we keep them fed, clean, and feeling loved. And as we learn to give them healthy messages and especially to just listen to them, they will tell us what changes need attending to. And, like kids, they will adapt and find a way to cope -- if at all possible, under most any condition, if you tell them they have to. But how would you like the results of getting used to living underfed and unclean? "Used to" means adapting just as inner-city kids have. (e.g.: They are not always the most easy to get along with, cooperative, or happy kids you've ever known, I suspect.) It works the same for the cells in the body. So how do we remedy such a situation? Well, of course, first fix the supply system and take care of those basics. Secondly, remedy the attitude that got them that way or they will never feel they can drop the coping and learn what a happy communicative, sharing lifestyle is about. Maybe some hints might be found at "My Cells - My Children" & other metaphorical prose for the 'Body-Parenting' Approach to Mind-Body Integration.
Likewise, cell systems will adjust based on our messages to them, even those that are counter to long-term health. They can actually maintain those adjustments for a whole lifetime if they don't get a corrective message. I.E.: If we, as infants, often needed to tense ("armor up") various muscles for emotional or physical protection (when adults around us acted insensitively or worse), we most likely continued through adulthood to hold various muscles in an overly tense state. Muscles need to know what relaxation is, as well as what intense work is, in order to have an appropriately full range of tonicity/contractedness, and to find the right tone for any given condition.
With body-awareness, we enhance our senses naturally, as well as provide opportunity for our self-healing mechanisms to be turned back on, and thereby give the cells the corrective messages about tonicity, circulation, function, etc. Sometimes we will receive insight about a corrective action we must take; i.e.: by newly feeling the need to adjust our posture or some kind of bodily movement, or even due to reviving memories (that were previously suppressed). Details of these processes are explained in the essay, "Body-Mind Integration in the Personal Growth Process" - The basic how's and why's of psycho-emotional storage in the body-mind (described above).
If it is true that "God helps those who help themselves," or that "the door to the heart opens from the inside," and if it is true that humans learn by exercising free will and making adjustments based on the results, ... then it most probably follows that the amount of God's healing energy flowing into our cells (and lives in general) depends on how much we allow -- via our conscious or unconscious messages to our cells. And might the doors to the cells be on the inside too? And if such considerations have merit, might it not follow that such circulation of energies (via our thought, feeling, and action) is the only thing that does heal a cell, organ, system, living organism, situation, etc? And if that were true, what could be more effective than focused awareness on our cells, which massage therapy naturally encourages ? (And yes, so do various self-applications such as Tai Chi, Chi Gong, and yoga, including "Tensing Yoga").
To the body-mind, cells are the most basic source of reproduction, instruction (DNA), and metabolic energy. Each cell is a *nuclear-powered* cottage industry, that no human technology has even come close to matching in energy production efficiency. It provides alchemical transmutation capacities as well as highly specialized function. They are the physiological basis for each living organism, therefore for life itself. Is it conceivable that each living cell is a living bridge, a Chalice, by which the Father aspect of God has joined with the Mother aspect of God in order to create life on earth ? What would make this bridging connection stronger; what would open further the cell's doors to the Divine ? How about certain kinds of thoughts and feelings of unconditional love (or prayer, meditation, imagery, or some activity that encourages a similar focus) ? Some ideas on that: "Notes on Beliefs, Healing, and Prayer" -- practical considerations and a little science to boot.)

If some folks were to see how I live and hear of my having written an essay on abundance, they would be sure that I was either a comedian, a hypocrite, or a blithering idiot. My response to that would be, "well, that's understandable  , and..." The "ands" have to do with how one defines abundance or success - primarily based on how one understands karma, belief patterns, and life decisions about priorities.
In any case, I am happy to say that I am rich in many ways that are not associated with how the image of 'success' has been promoted in the media. And essentially that: further understanding of the definitions, values, and concepts regarding such terms as 'magnetism,' 'achievement,' 'attainment,' and 'true abundance' would be a valuable thing in this 'all about winning' era, and I hope to provide at least some clarification in the essays, "Attainment And Achievement -- The Alignment Of Beliefs, Desires, And Needs", "Whole Being Integration In Manifesting Abundance...", and "Achievement of Goals, Attainment, And the Role of Inner Work: A Flow Chart of the Human Psyche in Growth Facilitation and ...", referred to as "The Goal Chart", and which includes "Heart's Desire, Ideals, & Accomplishment" (new Aug'11). The term 'karma' may also deserve some attention, and that is covered more extensively in the essay, Evolution Trends..." in the section "On Learning, Fairness, Truth, and Peace", and in essay, "Victims, Compassion, & Responsibility -- Notes on The Emotional-Body, Denial of Pain, & 'Easy Answers' (Not!)", as well as in essay, "WHY PAIN? Notes on Pain, Awareness & Denial," Pertains to Physical and other levels - Aspects in Developing a Practical Approach with Compassion. You'll find many other references to essays at this site here, and here's where I toss in my 2nd disclaimer below (and some humor). |
You might want to brief this whole page first, totally resisting those links 'till you've seen it all...
