Healing Begins with Balance
BALANCE BEGINS WITH WATER
Sometimes I just get so busy. I wonder how to keep up. With everything happening in our world today, being busy, busier, busiest is a coping mechanism.
When I feel stressed or overinvolved, I come to a stop for a moment and remind myself that my balance begins with water.
Over half of our body weight is water.
Water is included in all the chemical activities that our body generates, whether we’re awake or asleep. Because water plays a vital role in everything we do, even minor dehydration affects our physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual balance.
Keeping hydrated is crucial to your balance and grounding.
We lose water when we breathe, sweat, urinate, eat and digest food, walk around the block, sleep. This is a continual process.
The #1 energy drink on the planet: water. You can supplement your need for water with fruits, vegetables, and other beverages like coffee, tea, and juice.
Water flushes out waste and toxins. It prevents constipation. Water optimizes kidney function, preventing kidney stones.
Water holds the balance between air and fire. Its energy is conscious.
Do you want to keep your energy level up and prevent fatigue?
Double your water consumption for two weeks. If you don’t experience a distinct improvement in your energy level and overall feeling of wellness, make an appointment with a well-trained healthcare professional.
The person who might help you the best at this time is someone who will see you as a whole person and an individual. A person who can look at the big picture for you is a good choice. You might have a functional medicine doctor in your area.
Are you thinking of going on a diet? Try this: When you feel hungry, drink a glass of water first.
Are you interested in maintaining your youth? There are several things you can do today along with your exercise: Drink water. Drink more water.
Water is a good health promotion tool.
When you get serious about your water and your health, you are probably going to think about where your water comes from.
It may be time for a good water filter. I have an under-the sink water filter which I use to clean the water I drink, the water I use to wash fresh veggies and fruits, the water I give to my pets, and the water I use to nourish my houseplants.
Your skin is your largest organ eliminating toxins throughout the day.
Bathing and showering are balancing and relaxing activities which can be an essential part of your spiritual and physical grounding program.
Bathing will get rid of heavy metals while getting rid of heavy thoughts.
Use water to unwind when you soak away toxins in a salts bath. Set aside at least 15 minutes to relax in warm water to which you’ve added salts, herbs, essential oils. There are many options here for your enjoyment.
At the end of your soak, shower off with fresh water and dry your body with a clean towel.
Follow this with a dry brushing exercise. Use a natural-bristle brush to softly brush your body, beginning with your feet and working your way up your head.
As you add new balancing health habits, include regular reflexology and Reiki therapy sessions. Homeostasis is easier with regular balancing habits.
Finally, balance is a physical, mental, emotional, energetic, and spiritual experience.
Sometimes, achieving balance for your health requires releasing habits which do not promote balanced healing.
Achieving balance also calls for us to rebuild parts of your lifestyle and your self.
Goal setting is a basic part of the process.
Finally, as you achieve balance, you may find that you are losing a few people in your life. Some new ones may join you.
These things may happen as you achieve a balanced healing state.
It’s amazing what can happen when you begin to drink water!

Third Eye Chakra Meditation
A third eye chakra meditation helps you connect with your 7th chakra to access the wisdom it holds for you.
Go to a place where you feel safe. Get comfortable. Close your eyes and take a deep breath. Continue to breathe slowly and deeply.
As you breathe, let each exhale release tensions and tightness. As you continue breathing, feel warm relaxation flowing throughout your body.
Enjoy this feeling of relaxation and comfort. Now, visit your senses on a spiritual level.
For a moment, bring to mind a sunrise, a sunset, a tree shading a meadow beneath it. See your favorite flower.
Listen to the rain on a window. Hear a dog barking in the distance. Hear a car honking.
Smell a freshly baked cookie. Experience a cup of freshly brewed coffee. Freshly mown grass.
Continue now, to choose your own selection of sensory experiences which you rely on to assist you as you experience your world spiritually.
After a few more sensory experiences, you are in a calmer state.
Ask your third eye chakra what it needs now.
While waiting for a response from your chakra, take a few more calming and relaxing breaths.
You may receive your desired feedback now. It may come as a word, a sound, a color, a song, an animal, or a feeling of awareness..
If you receive this feedback now, think about what came to you. How do you feel about this information?
What is a good thing to do to act on this information? (if, indeed, you need to act) It may be that this is simply something for you to know.
If you do not receive feedback now, don’t worry! It will come to you when the time is right.
It is now time to return to your space in an awake, aware state. Take a deep breath, exhale slowly, and gently open your eyes.
If you have time, this is a good opportunity to reflect on your experience.
Return to this meditation whenever you feel comfortable doing so.
Drink fresh, cool water to keep yourself hydrated.
