Life with fibromyalgia is a constant ebb and flow. Some days, I feel like I’ve conquered the beast. But just as quickly, I’m reminded that the battle is ongoing.
Before bariatric surgery, I lived in a world of pain, depression, and anxiety. It felt like an endless cycle, one that I couldn’t break free from.
But then, a glimmer of hope shone through: Reiki and astrology. The energy, the symbols, the cosmic guidance – they became my lifeline. They sent waves of positive Inner-G to my future self, guiding me through the dark times. With Reiki, I began to shed the weight of my physical and emotional burdens.
Bariatric surgery marked a significant milestone in my journey. I saw improvements – less pain, a lighter spirit, a reduction in anxiety. It felt like I was finally moving forward. But recently, I’ve found myself slipping. My self-control wavered, my anxiety crept back in, and old habits began to resurface.
In moments like these, it’s easy to feel defeated.
But this is when we need to remember the basics. It’s okay to revisit where it all began. For me, it’s about reconnecting with the Reiki symbols that brought me so much peace and strength, and the astrological insights that guided my choices. It’s about acknowledging that the journey is not linear. We will have setbacks, but that doesn’t erase our progress.
Embracing the Basics
- Reconnect with Reiki and Astrology: Take time each day to meditate with the Reiki symbols and consult your astrological chart. Visualize their energy flowing through you, bringing calm and balance. Let the stars guide your daily practices and choices.
- Mindful Eating and Astrological Guidance: Pay attention to what and how you eat. Return to the practices that helped you after your surgery. Let astrology inform your choices – whether it’s a grounding root vegetable for your Capricorn rising or a soothing chamomile tea for your Libra moon. It’s not about perfection but about making conscious choices aligned with the cosmos.
- Crystals and Plant Benefits: Use crystals and plants that align with your astrological signs. For instance, amethyst for intuition, rose quartz for love, or ZZ plants for harmony. Meditate with these crystals and incorporate the plants into your space for added healing energy.
- Self-Compassion: Be kind to yourself. Healing is not a straight path, and setbacks do not mean failure. They are part of the journey.
- Community Support: Reach out to others who understand your journey. Share your experiences, listen to theirs, and draw strength from the collective wisdom.
Encouragement for the Journey
Remember, it’s okay to go back to the basics. It’s okay to need a reset. Our paths are unique, and each step back is an opportunity to move forward with more insight and strength. Embrace where you are, honor where you’ve been, and look forward to where you’re going.
To everyone reading this, know that you are not alone. Your journey, with its ups and downs, is valid. Take a deep breath, reconnect with your roots, and keep moving forward. We’ve got this.
Sending positive inner-G. Reiki Ra-Ess!
