Survive to Thrive: Healing Commitment

Adora Winquist January 31, 2022

Welcome to today's meditation, the third week in our Survive to Thrive series. It is such a joy to have been so immersed in all of the different facets of this healing series, it feels profoundly transformational to me. All of the pieces, threads, and aspects of the alchemies, the esoteric philosophy, and the psycho-spiritual aspects come together in a great synergy that helps us find new ways to thrive in our lives and understand more deeply that our soul work is really our sole work. 

We started out this series with the survival and struggle aspects of our energy consciousness, and last week moved through the healing crisis of the second chakra. This week, we are on the third step, the healing commitment. 

As part of that step, we will be working with the solar plexus chakra and the digestive organs—stomach, liver, spleen, intestines. The affirmation is, “I am clear, decisive, and invoke the fullness of my personal empowerment.” As we work through the solar plexus chakra, we will find that is not only where we carve our niche for ourselves in the world, but it's where we're able to receive and assimilate energy and information and more greatly embody our personal power. That idea of assimilation connected to the fact that our digestive organs are in the same location as the solar plexus, helps us realize our ability to digest ideas and concepts. The more that we clear, open, and expand, the more we are able to understand higher-level precepts of philosophy and esoteric thought, the greater aspects of who we are from a multi-dimensional perspective, and why we’re here, why we chose to be here at this juncture of time and space with this specific body, family of origin, and life. The solar plexus chakra is also an energy center where we hold places of power struggle, particularly imprinted through our early childhood dynamics. In different lifetimes we’ve experienced either others having power over us, or us wielding our own power in an unbalanced way. 

Today we have a beautiful opportunity to refine those aspects of ourselves and create greater boundaries on the energies that we allow to come in, just like we do with the substances we allow into our bodies through diet and nutrition. This energy center, the solar plexus, is where we can get really clear about boundaries, and say, “No, I'm not going to allow in this energy from this person, situation, past pattern, or the exterior world, media and perceived authority.” This energy center is where we feel that connection to authority, and in today's meditation, one of our focuses will be taking back that authority for ourselves so that we can become the core authority in every aspect of our life and claim our sovereignty, divinity, and light.

Essential Oil Alchemy:

Tulsi Essential Oil Alchemy

Tulsi medicine is incredibly versatile. Its benefits range from the adrenal glands, the digestive system and cognitive functions, among other areas. Tulsi oil’s affinity with the solar plexus is profound. The solar plexus is the gateway to our mental body, and Tulsi is able to strengthen that aspect, that structured level of our field, to increase clarity and decisiveness from a place of divinity. In India, this plant is deemed “holy” oil and reminds us of the sacred light within us. Tulsi oil is a must add to your aromatic arsenal. 

Crystal Alchemy:

Yellow Aragonite Crystal Alchemy

Yellow Aragonite medicine is potent. This crystal comes in many colors and the yellow is a bit more rare. Its alchemy relates to power and encourages us to clear old patterning so that we can come into relationship with our power in a holy, balanced, clear, focused, and benevolent way. We all carry vibrational patterning and imprints from past abuses of power at both the soul level and the DNA level. We have typically experienced both perspectives of abusive power: another having power over us, and us wielding our own power in an unbalanced way. This energy is rising to the surface of us and of the planet to be transmuted through the collective consciousness. 



Visualization:

Place a drop of oil on the palm of your left hand, and take a deep breath in. Breathe deeply, and invite the clarity of your individual intention to evolve on your own personal journey and understanding of self-mastery. Move into the invitation and query at the soul level. What have you come into this life to master and bring your masterful light and love to? Invite the breath to come in, breathing in and out through the lower belly. Invite the root and the foot chakras to open and expand to drink in a greater communion with mother earth. Bring the fullness of your breath into the dantian, about an inch and a half below your navel, into that single note that holds you in the perfection of form that you are. Invite this energy to build at your core, strengthening your connection to the earth and inviting in the holiness of communion with your soul. Invite all else to fall away, to dissipate in dissolve into light around you.

On your next breath in, envision a lemon-yellow sphere of light that is pulsating right outside your solar plexus. It is so incredibly vibrant, bright, and full of life. On your next breath in, begin to drink in this lemon-yellow light right into and through your solar plexus and into this incredible vortex of light, power, and strength. Invite this beautiful and bright lemon-yellow light to come into and through each of the organs in this part of our physicality. The stomach, spleen, liver, and the entire digestive tract. As you drink in this lemon-yellow light, it begins to cleanse, clear, and purify each system of the body. Lemon-yellow light begins to move through your blood, bone, and marrow. Now this beautiful, cleansing, vibrant frequency begins to move throughout your auric field. As it's moving out through the solar plexus, the frequency is lifting, cleansing, and purifying.

Continue to deepen your breath. Open, allow, and receive this cleansing light and frequency to lift any density, dross, heaviness, distortion, or dysfunction from this part of your energy system, physiology, and cellular consciousness. As you continue to deepen your breath and receive, this higher level of light begins to move through and restructure your mental body. This level of the field begins to strengthen and pulsate, repairing this level of the field. You may feel a sense of lifting and clearing from the brain and the mind. Breathe, open, allow. You may feel a tingling, a quickening. You may feel spaces being opened within you.

There is no more time to stay small and quiet, afraid, or less than. Renew your commitment to your soul’s light and purpose. It is time to take back your inner authority, commune with your inner wise one, and stand tall in your greatness and light. 

Affirm: 

I invoke the release of all patterns of disempowerment, uncertainty, lack of clarity, staying small, and hiding in the dark. I invite the fullness of my personal empowerment,  clarity, strength, and decisiveness of my soul, here and now. 

When ready, inhale any oil left on your hands, feeling clear and revitalized. 



Blessings,
Adora

Survive to Thrive: Survival and Struggle
January 20, 2022

This is the first of a seven-part series called Survive to Thrive. A little bit of background on why I chose to take us on this specific journey: in 2022, I'm going to be launching my new school program called the Soul Institute, which is exciting. As I was gathering ideas to put together for course programs, I was going through my book, Detox Nourish Activate, and one section in the Adrenal area, called the Personal Evolution Triad, stood out to me to be expounded upon. Based on Maslow's hierarchy of needs, it takes us along the journey of self mastery.

Survive to Thrive: The Personal Evolution Triad
January 20, 2022

As a student and teacher for over two decades in the field of alternative medicine, I have come to understand the infinite nature of personal growth in an expansive way. In the writing of our new programs for the launch of our educational platform: The Soul Institute, I have refined the initial concept of the Personal Evolution Triad: Survive to Thrive. Based on the concept of Maslov’s Hierarchy, the Survive to Thrive diagram furthers the understanding of how we can evolve from the primary steps of survival and struggle. When we engage in the vicious cycle of struggle, dis-ease is perpetuated, whether it manifests in our body, mind, emotions or spirit.

Healing Abandonment
December 11, 2020

One of the reasons that we use essential oils is that when we're inhaling an essential oil or a synergy, it helps us connect to or create a new memory cell because of the powerful connection between olfaction and the limbic center of our brain that regulates so much of our physiology, specifically mood, memory, and emotion. And so with this process, we're able to create new and healthier neuro-pathways patterns to really shift the trajectory of our emotional response when we have triggering, overwhelming or stressful experiences.

Salt is used to cleanse and purify a home, office or other personal space of stagnant or unwanted energy. The energy of your environment has a direct impact on your mood, mental clarity, and overall sense of inspiration and harmony in your life. Salt was once traded by weight for gold.

For those of you that have gone through the program, you know we go into the depth of our core wounding in the first year. In the very first experience, we were brought back into the state of infancy and core wounding of the schizoid characterology, which was quite a surprise.

What Does Beauty, Faith, and Spirituality Have in Common?

Let's face it (wink) - the term beauty has a great deal of charge to it. We’ve been indoctrinated from too early an age of what beauty is "supposed" to look like. This messaging came from our parents and the culture of our heritage, the media, the maya of celebrity, and all the experiences we've had from the schoolyard to the corporate boardroom and even the bedroom where this has been reinforced.
