I’ve been hearing a lot from my clients and friends that they’re struggling with finding a life/ work balance. Many people talk about how stressed they have been feeling or overwhelmed in their lives. How do we have a life work balance? There are many things that can be an obstacle to that. For example our children, our partners or a really demanding job can all be factors contributing to our dis-ease and feelings of overwhelm.
I’d like to share with you today a powerful technique that I do every that’s called ‘The 7 Step Practice’. This is something that you can do in less than a minute.
Here’s how it goes – the seven steps are:
1. Connecting with something greater than you like your higher self or your helping spirits, the universe, God or source, whatever feels good for you. You want to connect with that energy that is greater than you. As you connect with that energy, just say: ‘Connecting’ several times while standing up until your body naturally sways forward.
2. Grounding – for this step we are grounding into the energies of Mother Earth. Feel how you are really connecting and grounding in with her energies. I think when we get overwhelmed or stressed. It’s actually a sign that we’re ungrounded. Again, you just repeat the word ‘Grounding’ over and over again until your body sways forward which indicates that you’ve completed that step.
3. Clearing – Again, you just repeat the word ‘Clearing’ several times until you sway forward. I think everybody goes throughout the day they pick up Other people’s energies or energies from places and situations that can really weigh us down so this step is very important and helpful for you to clear out all of that energetic debris.
4. Gathering – gather your power and your consciousness. Envision that you’re gathering back that power and consciousness as you say: ‘Gathering, gathering, gathering’ until you swat forward.
5. Centering – Everybody has a different center. For some of you your center might be in the middle of your chest where your energetic heart is; for others, it’s in the middle of your stomach or in your upper abdomen area. Focus on your center as you say ‘centering, centering, centering until you sway forward.
6. Unifying – bringing everything we’ve just done into unification. Just repeat the word: ‘Unifying several times until your body sways forward.
7. Protecting – For this last step I’d like you to imagine that you have a silver cord going out of the top of your head, straight up and out into the universe, all the way out to the central sun of the universe; feel yourself connecting with that pure organic light. Just envision or imagine what that that looks like as you connect to the central sun of the universe.
Now bring in that organic light into your crown chakra. Let it just stream through you internally cleansing and clearing you on the inside as we did before on the outside.
Next, imagine that pure organic light coming out of your third eye. Wrap that light all the way down your body from above your head to below your feet and back up again. Tuck it under your arms so there’s a double wrapping around your heart center.
Finally, you are going to make a ring of fire. Extend your arms in front of you and bring them all the way around to the back touching your hands in back to complete the circle. Next, direct your hands down below your feet and then up above your head until you’re in a cylinder of fire for your absolute and complete protection.
You’ll notice a huge shift in your whole energetic field after doing this seven steps practice. Once again repeat the word ‘Protecting’ several times so that you actually sway forward three times. This completes your seven step practice. I’d like to give credit to Jazz Goven who is the creator of Fast Track Technique. She originally came up with six of these steps and I have modified these steps and added a seventh step, which is ’Clearing’. I’ve also changed the way in which the protecting step is done from Jazz’s pyramid of protection to bringing in the pure organic light of the central sun of the universe and wrapping yourself like a mummy with that light.
