I don’t know about you but sometimes lately I have been feeling real tired and hypersensitive. Sometimes normal noises feel loud and irritating. It doesn’t seem to correlate to less sleep, an increased workload or energy expended. I’ve noticed, it’s not just me, as so many are sharing the same feelings of tiredness, hypersensitivity and at times even apathy.
Also, lately, what used to excite us doesn’t seem to anymore. We wonder… what’s going on? Why are we here? What is the purpose of it all? Why does it seem painful to be in these human bodies with bills to pay, bodies to take care of and all these earthly obligations when we are so awake and aware of the spiritual dimension of us that feels so peaceful, loving and important? The world demands us to do the human things but we are tired and want to just BE instead of DO.
I hear in the stillness of my meditations that part if this is our reaction to the planet seeming to move one step forward towards peace, love, acceptance, JOY and freedom and 2 steps back. So many are awake and consciously choosing love but so many more are still entrenched in fear, control, judgement, anger and self importance at the expense of others. I hear we need to be patient (not one of my virtues) and focus on all that is going well. The real doing that is needed is to continue to offer the love we seek, resist judgments of ourselves and others and just give in to the tiredness and rest when needed.
I was given the analogy that we spiritually awake humans, or Lightworkers, are bridges to guide others with our hope, deep knowing of the Spiritual realm and love, to a more peaceful place. We forget though that there are millions of us and we need to be reminded that it is okay to leave our post and allow our bridge to undergo its daily or at least weekly maintenance. Another bridge that is strong and well rested will take our place.
When our energy stores are drained it causes so much dis-ease, tiredness and hypersensitivity as we hang on our last nerves. Many of us aren’t consciously recharging our bodies on a continual basis. We understand the need to charge our cell phone batteries when the battery indicator is low or refuel our cars when they’re empty. Why is it so hard to sense and accept that our bodies don’t run on unlimited energy packs either? I think it’s because we, Lightworkers, are wired to sense others needs but can unconsciously deny or forget about our own needs.
Inadvertently, we burn our light out by not noticing and giving it the necessary fuel in the form of physical body care, fun, play, rest, nourishment and then wonder why we’re so tired. Also, when I am consciously paying attention, I sense certain people, situations and activities drain my energy pack very quickly. This is the same as with our technological devices when we use certain apps, have the brightness up to high or use our phones excessively.
The Angels shared this energy recharger with me. “Be still a few moments a day and connect with the hearts of all the other awake ones or bridges on the planet, especially the new little ones. This activates the Power Source of Love. You will see how many of you already light up the planet with your beautiful, loving hearts. This is jet fuel for your bodies, goals, desires & intentions. You then become even stronger beacons of light for the planet that naturally attract what you desire, which is more light, love, hope and freedom. This also assists the almost-awake hearts to find their way out of the darkness. This exercise won’t add to the burdens or stress of your day as it takes but a brief moment and will feel so good. It will ground you, feed & energize your bodies while uplifting your Spirit and planet as well. “
Another cause of our tiredness came to me in one of my coaching sessions recently. My client was sharing how exhausting and difficult it is to be what others want us to be or to say or do the right thing. The curse of being on the spiritual, consciously awake path is that we try so hard to be good and sometimes have unrealistic expectations that we need to be perfect. We have such a strong sense of others moods, feelings, pain and the sounds and other sensitivities are amplified to remind us that we need to turn the volume down on this too.
The gift of being on this path is that we are also called so loudly to be authentic. Don’t you find it is just too hard and tiring to be anything but real anymore? This awareness is one of the biggest gifts of the tiredness. It makes us stop and notice where our energy is going. If it is being expended in activities we don’t want to do, with people that don’t uplift us, we can change it. We can remember that being all things to everyone is not just impossible but unnecessary. Everyone has their wonderful gifts to add. I just need to be honest, give when I am guided and have the energy, and the rest of the time trust someone else will be available.
Also, listening to the mean voice in our head is a definite energy drainer. We must catch this abusive pattern and choose to ignore it or give it a reality check. If it is not okay for us to voice those words out loud to others, then it is not okay to say them to ourselves. I ask myself often lately, does that thinking energize my body with love, light and peace or drain me and add negativity, pain and confusion? Like Tony Robbins says, “It’s just thoughts or a Belief System, BS for short, which is Bull $#@%.” I’ll literally yell that word out if I am alone and the mean voice gets going. 🙂
My wonderful yoga instructor shared what she means when she tells us “to just BE,” which is a wonderful energy recharger. She feels it is what is left when you get rid of all the labels of ourselves. The labels of mother, daughter, son, friend, good person, employee, boss, American, Catholic, Gay person, Lightworker, Democrat or Republican, smart, neat or whatever the labels are that you place on yourself. These labels invariably lead to expectations of our jobs in these roles. She shared that what is left when you get rid of all those labels is our be-ingness.
I agree that “to be” is to tap into the pure Spirit of our Creator that was breathed into us as humans at our creation. This is what is left without all the labels. Connecting with that is the ultimate energy recharger and happens when we are completely present without judgement or expectation in any moment. It is free and always available to us. It is the ultimate Energizer Bunny pack. Other ways that energize me are going out in nature, focusing on gratitude, filling my body & mind with healthy, alive foods & positive thoughts and surrounding myself with my uplifting, joyful friends & Angelights community.
I hope that you are not feeling the tiredness right now, but if you are or do in the future now you know you are not alone. We are all in this together. I am offering some Events, Workshops and Gatherings over the next few months to give you respite and allow you to RECEIVE. I know we all need to be together supporting each other as we consciously work on boosting our energy.
Check out my Calendar of Events Page & visit frequently as I’ll be adding more as the inspiration hits! The first Event is next week. Join us at the “Re-Energize YOU with the Full Moon Event“ on Tues 8/20 from 7- 9pm. I will also have a Messages from the Spirit World Gathering on Thurs 8/22 7- 9pm so that you can feel the Energy and support of your Deceased loved ones. You can experience an Angelic Stillness and Healing Meditation on Mon 8/26 from 6:30 – 8pm to clear, heal and energize your body.
The ultimate Energy recharger is available to you also at the Tony Robbins Unleash the Power Within Event 11/7- 10 in NJ. I can’t wait to go again and be there with all of you. It is the ultimate healing, energizing and most powerful experience I have had. I have spots left for you at the discounted rate, which goes up 8/23. Listen to this video or go to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4W3k2xQchYw if that link doesn’t get you there. It got me all pumped up to be with Tony again. I’ve listened to it a few times over the past week and it energizes me every time.
Lastly, I have added a trip to the Portuguese Riviera September 2014 to give us an opportunity to get away from our routines to play, rest, renew and have a blast in an incredibly beautiful and healing place. I have 13 spots left if you are interested.
I hope my words give you validation that we’re all in this human experience together, some tools and ideas to energize you or relieve some of your tiredness. If all else fails, give in to it and take a nap outside in the sunshine and fresh air. Or if its cold and rainy, snuggle under a soft blanket with a good book. You’ll often find me in the summer on one of my favorite places, my swing….
Sending you thousands of Angels to surround you, fill you and bring you peace, JOY, freedom, lots of energy and abundance in all its forms.
love, love, love you all,
