It's a prayer that I've yet to be able to recite without crying because of its devastating beauty.<br /><br />Here is that prayer:<br /><br />To those who withhold refuge,<br />I cradle you in safety at the core of my Being.<br />To those that cause a child to cry out,<br />I grant you the freedom to express your own choked agony.<br />To those that inflict terror,<br />I remind you that you shine with the purity of a thousand suns.<br />To those who would confine, suppress, or deny,<br />I offer the limitless expanse of the sky.<br />To those who need to cut, slash, or burn,<br />I remind you of the invincibility of Spring.<br />To those who cling and grasp,<br />I promise more abundance than you could ever hold onto.<br />To those who vent their rage on small children,<br />I return to you your deepest innocence.<br />To those who must frighten into submission,<br />I hold you in the bosom of your original mother.<br />To those who cause agony to others,<br />I give the gift of free flowing tears.<br />To those that deny another's right to be,<br />I remind you that the angels sang in celebration of you on the day of your<br />birth.<br />To those who see only division and separateness,<br />I remind you that a part is born only by bisecting a whole.<br />For those who have forgotten the tender mercy of a mother&rsquo;s embrace,<br />I send a gentle breeze to caress your brow.<br />To those who still feel somehow incomplete,<br />I offer the perfect sanctity of this very moment.<br /><br />Even now, my eyes fill with tears as I write this.<br /><br />I vow that from here on, in honour of Quan Yin, I will offer compassion to all... because we all, no matter how flawed, deserve it.<br></div>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[An Empath in a Narcissistic World]]></title><link><![CDATA[https://www.highlevelhealing.com/blog/an-empath-in-a-narcissistic-world]]></link><comments><![CDATA[https://www.highlevelhealing.com/blog/an-empath-in-a-narcissistic-world#comments]]></comments><pubDate>Sun, 01 Dec 2024 14:30:16 GMT</pubDate><category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.highlevelhealing.com/blog/an-empath-in-a-narcissistic-world</guid><description><![CDATA[Are you an Empath?Do you too often find yourself in relationships with narcissistic individuals?Over the past few years I've done a deep dive regarding the dynamics between Empaths and Narcissists.

When I hold them tightly, I arrogantly believe everyone should believe as I do. When I hold them lightly, I appreciate others' perspectives/points-of-view, even if they may not be mine. The spiritual path is not about trying to get rid of or not have beliefs. It is about holding them lightly because you know that they are simply one perspective among billions. When we cling to a belief, we are stuck. When we hold it lightly we are not stuck... we are free." </strong>Michael Jeffreys<br /><br />This quote resonates with my Being.<br /><br />I have a sense we, at times, cling to our beliefs so tightly that it prevents our Spiritual growth. I was raised Catholic and found many of the Catholic doctrines too restrictive. I was certainly not a favorite of the Nuns who taught Church School and the Priests who presided over Mass. I'm sure many of them breathed a sigh of relief when I stopped going to Church. I found it difficult to listen to some individuals preach about Love and Forgiveness while I witnessed how they were dealing with the children in their care. My honest questions were seen as a challenge to their authority.<br /><br />I am not a religious person. I am, however, deeply Spiritual. My belief system has, over the years, grown to embrace the core teachings of many practices. I used to think that I was wishy-washy for picking and choosing from different religions and belief systems. I now realize that I was simply resonating with the similarities of each. I am not threatened by anothers' belief system. No one has to believe as I do. Everyone's Spirituality is their own.<br /><br />Any belief that allows us to become the best that we can be and opens the door to treating others as we would like to be treated has my respect.<br /><br />We all have our own paths to walk and unique ways of reaching our destinations. It's less important how we reach our destination than it is that we simply reach it.<br /><br /><span><span><span>So, throughout my journey, I will be holding my beliefs lightly.</span></span></span><br></div>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[In Honour of our Brother]]></title><link><![CDATA[https://www.highlevelhealing.com/blog/in-honour-of-our-brother]]></link><comments><![CDATA[https://www.highlevelhealing.com/blog/in-honour-of-our-brother#comments]]></comments><pubDate>Sun, 03 Dec 2023 13:45:28 GMT</pubDate><category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.highlevelhealing.com/blog/in-honour-of-our-brother</guid><description><![CDATA[In honour of our brother, Todd, my sister Dianne and I recently scattered a portion of&nbsp; his ashes on a bank of the Saint John river.The spot we chose was beautiful and peaceful, and just felt like the right place to perform the ritual.It was a rainy, cold day and by the time we arrived at the location the sun was soon to set.How we managed to get to the spot without falling will forever remain a mystery.

It crossed my mind that if we injured ourselves during the process we wouldn't have been discovered for quite some time. But we were on a mission and nothing was going to deter us.<br /><br />We tearfully spoke of our love for Todd, honoured him with prose that described the good man he truly was, and shared in the scattering of his ashes.<br /><br />As we finished the deed we wondered aloud if we had picked the right spot and said the right things, as it was important to us both that we honoured him in the way he deserved.<br /><br />As we began the trek back up the hill we were given conformation that we had, indeed, done the right thing.<br /><br />As we climbed the hill the waning sun broke through the clouds. When we looked up we saw an enormous flock of crows fly overhead, heading to their roosting site.<br /><br />We held hands as we stood in awe of what was transpiring.<br /><br />Then, as we looked down to better navigate the hill, we saw that it was covered in wild strawberries.<br /><br />Laughing and crying at the same time we gave thanks for those signs.<br /><br />Our brother Todd loved the outdoors and spent much time on, and near, the Saint John river. Many of our phone conversations took place as he was drinking a coffee looking over the river's expanse.<br /><br />Although I'm not sure he would openly talk about it to most people, Todd often fed crows.<br /><br />As for the strawberries, he would talk about how many rows of his garden would be used to plant them. I would laughingly say I was going to have to start referring to him as the Strawberry King.<br /><br />I am grateful that Dianne and I got to honour Todd in this way. It will be a lovely memory that will forever stay in my heart and help to ease the pain of his passing.<br /><br />And I am also so very grateful we got to witness that our deed was accompanied by such lovely signs of confirmation.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></div>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dear Mother Nature]]></title><link><![CDATA[https://www.highlevelhealing.com/blog/dear-mother-nature]]></link><comments><![CDATA[https://www.highlevelhealing.com/blog/dear-mother-nature#comments]]></comments><pubDate>Sun, 06 Aug 2023 14:37:02 GMT</pubDate><category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.highlevelhealing.com/blog/dear-mother-nature</guid><description><![CDATA[Dear Mother Nature, I bow to your superior intelligence and strength.The landscaping that took me days to accomplish was wiped away in a few short hours by the river you created that ran through my property.I just spent the morning cleaning up the mess and relocating the plants that very nearly washed away.
