Day 151 - A Year of Spiritual Awakening - If You Are Exercising...

Lesson 151: If You Are Exercising...

Exercise is a good method of releasing emotions and thoughts. Today we are to consider our efforts of exercise and movement and how we use them. If you use it as a method of releasing and clearing without awareness and consciousness, then you’re not truly releasing.

I personally use dance as a way to just get moving and feel good. I don’t actually do dance as a way of release. I do find that walking to and from work to be effective. If I have issues that I’m facing, I really start to dig deep into why I have a certain feeling toward it and then I try to be present afterwards. I mean I try and let things go and pretty much ask the Universe to take away anything that doesn’t serve me. I believe it’s working well for me when I just ask for it to be gone rather than it be stuck in my head. I think focusing on letting go of that which doesn’t feed me positivity seems to work out.

Are you using consciousness to release? What are you methods of movement that allows you to release and clear?

Lesson 150: The Pleasures of the Body...

The pleasures of the body are manifold. Many of you are diligent in your pursuit of health, vibrancy, performance. But when the focus is only on the body—when the body is used as a releasing point, instead of the heart—this is not useful to you.
— Sara Wiseman

So, today’s lesson is about release. If you use exercise as a way of release, what happens on all those days that you don’t exercise? If you don’t have the pleasure of physical release what is your alternative? Do you use meditation, prayer or music to release anything that doesn’t serve you well?

I put on some calming music to try and get the noise of my neighbours having sex out of my head, but I also had just done about 10 medium readings for other people and just wanted a pick me up through meditation. I can safely say that it was a bit of a boost as I used breathing technique to accompany it. I didn’t end up getting the sexual noises out of my head – it was so damn loud. But to release, I usually listen to music as well. I need this tool especially as I’m walking to work as I get anxiety sometimes before I need to go. I usually pray before I go to bed just to thank the Universe and anyone in spirit for giving me a good day. I learn from my mother that every day we wake up is a gift so we should appreciate that. So, I just go over all the highlights and be thankful.

What do you do for release from the heart? And what methods do you use?
