Getting rid of belief systems you have had for years and have heard from the outside world is not an easy thing to do. I thought I would bring up change in the physical body because im interested as to whether or not some of you have mastered that well, just like you have the mental things in your life, or if you struggle or not.

The other day I started to menstruate, and it was ten days early. I frieked out, that was my first reaction because of society and the beliefs they give you that something could be wrong. I felt like crying because negative thoughts wanted to come easily and I thought it was a bad sign of some kind of disease or something. I could only find relief from resistance, by calling my sister and asking her about it and she was nice enough to comfort me and tell me it was probably nothing. The resistance dropped down significantly and my point of attraction changed, so I felt it was easy all of a sudden to quickly say "my hormones are balanced, my body will be perfect" and I said it with a smile. IB really agreed with that thought so I kept telling myself that. I am still bleeding and still trying to relax about it. im 34 years old and have never had a child, and all of the stupid science out there tells you that if you havent had a kid your body might try to start perimenopause early which is a frieky thought so I dont want to own that one, but dont have anything better to replace it with. So im just trying to relax about my body knowing what to do all on its own and hoping that thought will get me through.

Anyway, why is it so hard to control the body? most peoples natural reaction is to friek out when something happens. When I sprained my ankle in May due to a fast moving stream, it hurt so badly my breathing wouldnt come out right. and it must have been IB who told me...sit down, relax, breathe slowly the best you can. I followed the advice and it took about ten minutes through the horrendous pain to calm down but I was more at ease afterwards.

I just wonder what to think about this since our first reactions are inbred inside of us to think the worst, to panic, when supposedly its supposed to be the other way around? thats strange..

Hi Jen
You have made some good points above.
Remember that your physical expression is just a reflection of what you are feeling about what you are thinking. If something pops up in your experience focus on what is wanted and not on what is not. Your body will respond the better feeling thoughts. It is just a practice thing. one thought at a time.
Only focus on what is wanted and remember your body is just a reflector of the energy you are storing in your belief system( your learned experience of this physical expression) You are a non physical being. you be it the way you want it to be Babe! thought by thought.
Hey...I am so much older than you in this physical experience....the faster the river the more scars start to surface in the flesh. All I can do about my reflection(body) is to love it and focus on it 's perfect wholeness. As thoughts come...deal and become deliberate about your choices. find excuses to feel good. We all have our hand on the stove in one way or another. I thank my body for reflecting back to me any aspect that is less than feeling good. It helps me to focus more clearly on what I want.
I hope this helps.
Love
Simon

Jen - I would suggest you find a copy of Christiane Northrup, MD's book - Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom (I saw a copy at Borders the other day in the cheap section for like $5!! I thought about picking up extra copies to give out to friends.)

She has such a beautiful spiritual/physical approach to women's issues. I have not read thru the whole thing (It's huge) - but I like to turn to it as a reference. Last month I was having some major pms emotional upset and I turned to it and felt so much better! Most of us could do a better job of honoring these wonderful vehicles we have been given!!

You pointed out the things that "science says" about what is happening to you that doesn't feel good - I would propose that you can find examples of the opposite too! Look for examples of women who have had an experience you would LIKE to have!!

I have changed my beliefs about many feminine body issues over the years and, thus, my body has changed with my beliefs. I have released lumps in my breast, reversed a condition of excess hormones that caused tumors on my ovaries, let go of that issue where your legs twitch uncontrollably ( rofl I can't even remember the name of that - but they wanted to put me on medication for Parkinson's disease), Oh heck, I can't remember the names of the other junk either because it's no longer a part of my experience!! Oh, and I also released more than 60 pounds. :dance:

Physical conditions are just an indicator of how we have been vibrating. Noticing a physical condition is like noticing an empty gas gauge - just go fill up on joy!

Simon,

so you think that what has happened is another fast moving stream manifestation? I dont know which thought caused it so I wouldnt know what to change :scratch: thats what is confusing about the body. Things show up and you dont know what the reason is. time to talk to IB again..
Thanks for your help, I have to think about it and see whats doing it..

Steph,

thanks for the tip on the book! not to mention that you said you had all those problems and they all dissapeared, well how did you do that? that is amazing. releasing weight thats a big one too..

It does not matter what caused what....what does matter is how you respond to what you are feeling now! it always starts from now!!!!

Left to its own devices our bodies thrive.
Agreed!

There is no need to control the body - in fact you cannot control it... and if you think about it you can't really control anything in your life. All you can do is "guide" your thoughts and let your body and your life reflect back to you your vibrational countenance.

Nice system once you get the hang of it. :dance:
