I’ve had a frozen shoulder for over 12 months, along with plantar fasciitis on one foot.
Apparently, these are not uncommon happenings for menopausal women.
But I’ve also been feeling into the emotional and spiritual messaging that my body has been signalling.
The shoulder first went awry when the circumstances of someone who’d briefly come into my life prompted me to ponder a similar context for one of my ancestors.
That ancestor then said hello when I was getting a spinal treatment. I knew in that moment that I had to travel to the Sapphire Coast for ceremony.
The roadie opened up curiosity, which led Bec and I to ditch the silly idea of a Bali retreat, and to ‘accidentally’ find the dream venue for our recent Sacred Symphony – on that NSW south coast.
Just a couple of weeks ago on the retreat, our splendid caterer/massage therapist got into the shoulder. The ancestor returned, with the closing chapter to what’s been about four years of my body revealing secrets.
The stuff that has been frozen in time. And, in my shoulder.
I’ve had reiki, theta healing, sauna, colonics, healing with horses, plants, acupuncture, osteo, tuning forks.
Each has helped to melt away a little bit of the freeze and bring in some new snippet of awareness into my mind.
It’s been infuriating and confusing, as the weight, heaviness and lack of movement affected how I manage autoimmune stuff.
But I can see now and appreciate the natural intelligence of my body and my psyche titrating.
Today, I went to my first exercise physiology session. I’ve not been able to lift weights or to practice an aligned Sat Kriya for yonks. But now it’s move and repair time.
It has been necessary to sit with and meet discomfort, even as this diminished my capacity to meet the expectations of a grown up in this modern world [side note: that extrication is a blessing].
Anyway, this was a long story to remind me and you why depth work, energy healing and patience are so valuable for us.
And, why we need to listen to the signals, synchronicities and whisperings, and give things space and time to unfold.
