Hello

There are times when we have a Soul that steps out and a new one steps in. This usually happens in times of an accident or more severe shift in our emotional state. The Soul might feel that the cord has been cut and that the body is on its way out. I had an NDE (Near Death Experience) where I did not have the normal tunnel of light ext mine was a lesson event. I got the same Soul back to me, but it had a clear message change your path or your going OUT for good next time. I was into some pretty dark stuff. This is often called the "Dark Night of the Soul Event".

When you come back to being you again there is often a shift in our physical and spiritual body and it takes time to balance them out again and to feel well whole again. Grounding I so feel is key but for me its more than just roots into the ground we have to be free in our spiritual body as well to travel a bit but be connected.

Here is a grounding exercise I have used in workshops I have held.

Simple one is to imagine a seed in your hand and to have it grow.
Take a seed
Place it in the ground
Water the seed
Feel a tiny root shoot start to grow into the ground
Feel more and more roots grow into the ground
Feeling that connection to the Earth
Feel the Sun on the ground
Feel a tiny shoot pressing up through the ground
The roots grow down and connect to the Earth
The shoot grows up into the Sunlight
Slowly you grow a tree, the trunk, the branches and leaves
The roots grow strong to hold you to the Earth
The branches reach up and out into the Sunlight
You are grounded but free to explore

The Seven Major Chakras


First and foremost what is a “ Chakra” the word itself comes from the Sanskrit meaning ‘wheel’. If one was able to visualize a Chakra one would see a spinning ‘wheel’ or energy. Each Chakra has a colour assigned to it and a place for it associated with the body. They start at the base of the spine and move up to end at the top of the skull.

The common train of thought is that each Chakra has its own vibrational speed, the Chakra at the base of the spine being the slowest and the one at the top of the skull being the fastest. Each Chakra has its own colour assigned to it. Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet.

In having the Chakras in a state of balance is said to bring in that feeling of calmness and over all well being in health. Like all things it is balance one seeks to find. If one runs too wide open to the universal energies that is not positive as one can feel over run. If one is not open enough has what is referred to as “blockages” one feels listless and like nothing is moving forwards.
