Are we overthinking it? There is a lot of components, which all has their own specific energetic movement. We can’t forget that we have a physical body and a spiritual body, which is our individuality which makes up our soul. Our spirit is all knowing it is more intelligent than our physical body, and they have to work together on some level. One cannot live without the other here on earth to learn the things we were meant to learn. Some people are so emotionally sick, and there are so many things that they could choose from to help with the confusion they carry, nevertheless they’re looking for help.

We also have a Heavenly Father and angels assisting us especially in the times of great fear, so there are several different ways we can help ourselves through this earthly life with thankfulness for the grace of God who has put these things on earth in many different ways for each of us to decide what works best for us. My conquest, my story is probably similar to many others. Several years ago, six to be exact , I was very ill.  I sought knowledge and inspiration through prayer and I was guided to Bach Flower, which I didn’t even know existed. I was inspired to fly to England to take the Bach Flower schooling courses to understand emotional health and its movement within me. I am today, not perfect, but so much more enlightened in all aspects of who I am and there’s still mountains to climb, there’s still hard things to go through, there are also very beautiful spiritual experiences along the way. Connection is what we are all looking for through our healing. Dr. Bach  brought value and purpose with the Bach Flower Remedies. He understood the properties and how they worked, our ancestors before us were inspired to use healing properties from nature also, since the beginning of time, maybe they weren’t qualified in their understanding of how it worked, but the understanding came from a higher power to them. Within their soul, they knew it did work and they knew there was a higher power guiding them just like Bach learned. One of the things that drew me to him was his love and understanding of God. Fast forward, we are all compelled to follow our heart and the things that move us spiritually, I don’t believe that has ever changed since the beginning of time as we are all human. In our day we have more of an understanding of energies and how they work, and it still works the same throughout us whether we were born in the beginning of time or now. Life has become more knowledgeable in a sophisticated sort of way to understand outside influences for good or bad, but I personally believe since the beginning of time there was wisdom that was learned in the age of time that they were born.  Maybe on some level they  had more of an  understanding of things with all the knowledge that they received for healing. We also receive knowledge through healing. What you do with that knowledge is the key. Are you going to use it for your good, are you going to keep it to yourself, and if you keep it to yourself is it truly working for you? Sharing, I believe is what Dr. Edward Bach wanted us to do. Wisdom is meant to share… Debra

Even though there are family and friends all around me, I have been feeling lonely for a very long time. I have realized what I've done to myself by the boundaries that I have put around me—the things that I will not do, the things that scare me, the things I’m not sure of, the unknown paths I walk—always searching for the better parts of me: the smarter parts, the outgoing parts, and the sharing parts. Although I do share things that I have put effort into, these things that I have learned, are good for me too. My husband wants to travel like we used to, but I feel safer and more comfortable in my own home. I’ve built fences that create boundaries all around me; fear of places I don’t want to go, fear of not feeling safe, fear of flying, fear of being bored, fear of not remembering, fear of becoming lost physically, mentally, and emotionally, etc. Underneath it all, I am STUCK in the surroundings I have created around me—my safe places which have given me peace of heart, peace of mind, and inspiration—the things that give me fresh breath. It sustains me, but not fully. I am in a space of aloneness. I need to build fences with unlocked gates so I can walk through them when I want to. Fear—fear is always built around what is untrue. To overcome what you are afraid of, inquire, “What falsehood is at the root of this feeling?” Still searching… Which path do I want to walk? The tightrope or on the grass and the winding path in the garden? It’s a no-brainer! Of course, I’ll walk in the garden and on the grass! I have realized that I create way too many boundaries to remain safe from the world; it’s my own choices that seem to protect me, but in reality, I’ve also created a cocoon that feels safe but is also restrictive. I feel stuck, which creates a feeling of slowness in my body and mind. How much longer am I going to live this way? Why did I choose to live this way in the first place? I feel that COVID was the precursor to my lack of health moving forward. The cocoon I built around me has helped me feel safe for a while, but I’ve stayed there too long, and now I am trying to find my way out. I ensnared myself for my inner protection, and now it is holding me too tight! There is little movement forward. I feel stuck, which creates isolation. This is not truly me—well, actually, it is me now. It is who I have become, and now I want OUT! I have learned a lot through my years of becoming, and now I am ready for a new chapter in my life—the one that lets me breathe in new light going forward with my courageous, fun self! Lots of laughter and new vibrations through new opportunities. I will give space for myself to grow, step by step—until I am fully there, wherever that is! It’s time to spread my wings and fly! A butterfly's metamorphosis holds up a mirror to our own life stories of change, as it reflects the journey of breaking free from the doubts that hold us back and embracing the growth that comes with transformation. Just as the caterpillar sheds its old skin and emerges from the cocoon, we too must let go of suffocating beliefs, fears, or past experiences that no longer serve us. This process of breaking free can be difficult and uncomfortable, but it's through these challenges that we begin to grow, evolve, and discover our true potential! Like a butterfly taking flight, we eventually rise above our past struggles, gaining the strength, resilience, and freedom to live to the fullest extent. The butterfly's journey mirrors our own: a path of self-discovery, transformation, and the courage to become who we are truly meant to be! Debra

While sitting on a log by the ocean, I was pondering my life, and a new insight shined upon me. The OCEAN If it could talk, what would it say… I am powerful, loud, and serene; I continually dance. I move breath with the energy of life within me. I give, and I take. With the rapture of my soul, I glide upon the sand, then pull back into the whole body of water to which I belong. I intrigue people to ponder, to be grounded, and to think deeply. With each new wave that crashes against a rock and soars high into the sky, carrying its white splendor, I give people new breath, wonder, and solitude. The mass of my body is beyond measure. I am "Living Waters." Finding Balance in Life … Still Pondering; I was deep in thought about a family event that was coming up that night. We were getting on a boat to cross the ocean bay—a 45-minute boat ride!! There was a dinner and a show to be seen, and all my family who were with me were going. However, I was not excited about this boat trip, and 99% of me wanted to stay at the hotel and welcome them back when they returned! I had pondered two other times I had stepped forward onto a boat upon the ocean: Deep-Sea fishing and another time in the San Francisco Bay on a dinner boat cruise. Both times, I felt deathly ill and swore I would never ever get on another boat in the ocean or the ocean bay again!! Now, it’s been years and years, and I have never stepped foot upon the deck of a boat with ocean water beneath it!! Why? I have been holding that emotional connection or experience for a very, very long time!! I wanted to ensure I would never “ever” forget it and make that mistake again. Every time I re-lived that emotional experience, it was as if I was there. I would start to feel sick and definitely “NOT” feel in control. Now, here is a keyword for me, “In-Control!!” I cannot be in control when I am not on solid ground. And you can take that however it’s worth! But, for me, danger lurks beneath dark waters… be it physical or emotional. Thoughts getting louder; The time is getting closer, and I am starting my back-and-forth conversation, “Do I go, or do I Not go? Do I go, or do I Not go? That is the question I always ask myself when I’m not feeling in control or composed. Creeping in; While I was in deep conversation with myself, another thought timidly entered my space, which completely stopped the conversation I was having with myself!! It ruffled my feathers for a moment, but I decided I would allow it to speak. It could be a new perspective, a new idea, and it was!! The thought was, What if I took the time to ponder the thought that I had written earlier that day about the ocean, which moves differently than the earth? The earth is more grounded, while the ocean is more fluid. Allowing that thought definitely helped me to feel a little more in control, but I always have to be in Control. Just maybe it’s “Time to think outside the box.” So ... I thought for a moment, could I still be grounded with the movement that the ocean has to offer? Could I give new breath with each new wave? Could I intrigue wonder instead of fear? Could I dance with the ocean? What should I do? What if I let myself move with the Ocean? What if I moved effortlessly, swaying side to side, up and down, back and forth like a dance while smelling the Ocean breeze and being one in the moment!! Could I possibly be OK with that? Still pondering; So, I decided to try it one more time. With that thought in mind, I told myself again that if it didn’t work, this would be the last time… Listening; Listening, to my intuition, my inspiration, helped me to make a new choice, a choice that gave me freedom to move forward again. I was still afraid, but the fear was not as strong because I allowed myself to see the other side of fear, which made all the difference in the world for me. The Ocean dance charged my lungs. I could breathe deep and then let it out with each new swell that moved up and down and back and forth. I just let myself move with it. It was so peaceful, not fighting against it, that it almost lulled me to sleep. The fear had passed, and solitude had entered my soul. I will always remember this experience when I tried to hold too tight to something that needed movement differently through my body and emotions. What If? What if, is a new part of my movement in life going forward. “Choices in life can sometimes hold you back. It doesn't allow you to find that space of wonder, the inspiration that we need to find the new parts of us, the joyful and playful parts, and the healing parts that are all waiting patiently for their turn. What will it take for you to find the balance in your life?” Debra Rudd
