R 14 : *SYSTEM* | Switching to Energy
Susan Gregg/ENERGY
| well today I was planning on talking
| about quieting the mind
Cygnus | Excellent choice
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | any thoughts or feelings befroe we start
| hi Rich
Rich (VA) | hello
| "the mind is a wandering tigre"
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | or a busy monkey
| I know one of the greatest gifts is the
| ability to guiet your mind
Cygnus | I find that being a musician when I try to
| quiet my mind song often
| come through. I would like to hear some
| suggestions for this.
Rich (VA) | perhaps when we quiet the mind we hear the
| soul, that would indeed be a bit scary
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | true
Daniel F/Sysop | perhaps we are so used to thinking it is hard
| to stop
Rich (VA) | I am a 3rd year med student and have few
| "quiet" moments
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | well how about we get centered first and
| then we'll talk about ALL that OK??
Cygnus | Alright by me
Rich (VA) | what is getting "centered?"
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | you'll see
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | lets start getting centered by focusing on
| your breathing
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | well put your hands in your lap and take
| a deep breath
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | really breath deeply
| shhhhh
| notice how it feels to really fill your lungs
| when you think your lungs are full breaht
| a little bit more
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | as you breath in say mentally breath in
| as you breath out say mentally breaht out
| just take a few minutes and focus your
| total attnetion on your breathing
| just concentrate on your breathing
| follow your breath as it comes in and out
| let your breath carry you
| let your breath relax you
| just let go to yoru breath
| be gentle and let go
| imagine your mind slowing
| and just relax
| how does that feel?? GA
Daniel F/Sysop | peaceful
Cygnus | Clean
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | anyone else??
Shielded | peaceful
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | good
| that is a wonderful way to quiet your mind
| if I say don't think about a red fire truck
| you think about it in order not to think
| about it
| it is the same with quiet your mind
| you must gently embrace the thoughts or
| the noise or the songs
| allow them to be but focus on the quiet in
| between
| them, focus on your breath or the spaces
| In my tradition they call that focusing on
| the shadows
| questions
| thoughts
| feelings
| GA
Cygnus | I never though about just letting the songs be
| Always fouhgt them to make the stillness
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | I know our minds tell us to control
Cygnus | Because you must be focused and quiet to to
| draw your energies
| Focused anyway
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | and by letting go we can focus
| it is like life
| most people focus on what they don't
| want
| what they want to let go of instead of just
| letting it be
| to me life is about embracing everything
| become one with it
| and then I can transform it
| ant thoughts????
| I find it is easiest to discuss specifics
| with this stuff so you want to get specific
|
Cygnus | To what you desire
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | explain please
Cygnus | By embracing the rain attuning with it you
| can transform it from a
| downer, bad circumstance, to one of beauty
| and pleasure as you
| would the sunshine.
| Understanding it's being
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | true I live in Hawaii so I look forward to
| rain but hwne I lived in Vermont I
| dreaded it
| and to embrace something you don't
| necessarily have to make it beautiful
| just change your perspective
Cygnus | Exactly
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | Shielded any questions or thoughts??
Cygnus | I find that most of the time that creates a
| thing of beauty
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | true
| any other thoughts
| the meaning of life or anything
Cygnus |
Shielded | heheheh
Shielded | I love to meditate at 80 miles
| an hr. and thats true
| it puts me in a strange
| peaceful place
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | hopefully you aren't the driver
Shielded | I am
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | and your eyes aren't closed
Shielded | nope....
| on the bike
| seriously
Cygnus | Their is something truly serene about that.
Shielded | reality shifts
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | driving frequently puts people in an
| altered state of mind
Cygnus | I love driving at night
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | I do too especially with the top off my
| jeep
| I drive home along the coast
| and the stars and the waves are so
| enchanting
Shielded |
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | but if my mind is busy I don't even notice
| the drive home
Shielded | Yes!
| I have driven home
| unconsciously! from work...
| kinda scarey
Cygnus | Yup do that allthe time
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | one of the things I learned to do was
| change all my routines and habits
| it helps to keep me focused
| i believe life is a process of waking up
| amd staying awake
| any questions about ________????
Cygnus | Do you od any work with healing?
Shielded | that is the goal of all who want
| to reach an enlightened state
| Sus!
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | yes to C right on to S
| I work with energy and was taught to do
Cygnus | Do you work with energy balls?
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | various forms of healing by the shaman
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | I have worked with energy in lots of forms
| II find every one has their favorite way
| why???
Cygnus | Agreed I always find it interesting to see
| all the manifestations it can
| take.
| I think we simply find a form we work best
| with and go from there
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | and whatever works for a person is what
| works
| some make the mistake of doing it in
| anothers way
Shielded | Cy can U explain energy in
| that way more fully to me?
Cygnus | Just a sec
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | have you ever worked through your
| higher slef to/through theirs
Shielded | I have taken a Healing Touch
| course and I am aware of
| energy and aura's and
| chakras but not heard this
| term.
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | you can play with energy like silly putty
| you can form it into balls
Shielded | yes
| ok
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | you can throw it like bolts
Shielded | hmmm
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | you can charge the balls with a specific
| energy
| and send it to a person
Shielded | OK
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | you can also use them to 'see' through
| to 'see' what is going on woith the other
| and work through that energy
| it is fun to make energy balls
| it always reminds me of making mud pies
| as a kid
|
Shielded | OK ... I see... I like the sound
| of that!
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | either of you worked through higher
| selves????
Shielded | I would hope so
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | heheh
| I mean specifically for healing
Shielded | yes... healing touch teaches
| the premise
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | I have run into quite a few folks lately
| that have talked about healing touch
| if not we could close with an exrecise
Shielded | a million
| hehehe
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | go for it
Shielded | I will wait for next time Susan
|
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | next month I am going tpo be teaching a
| class on shamanism 101 or totlec style
Shielded | where Susan?
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | I'm not sure which forum a or b
Shielded | Great!
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | still in propsal form
| at a busier time toooo
| well lets do it
Shielded | OK
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | focus on your breathing again
| really breath deeply
| relax and breath
| feel your breath
| let out a heavy sigh
| and as you do let go
| as you breath in breath in love
| as you breath out breath out love
| imagine yourself surrounded by love
| in a huge bubble of love
| imagine that love going out and touching
| all the people in your world
| those you love and those you don't
| see it going out and surrounding mother
| earth
| feel it touching the hearts of all beings on
| this plane
| feel it going out into the universe
Shielded | .
Susan Gregg/ENERGY | feel it touching the very hert of the
| universe
| feel it joining iwht all the love
| feel that love multiplying
| and feel it coming back into your heart
| all that love
| now send that energy out to

| you and the world
