To this email I really give you a knowing sigh and smile..

 

It has been a real rough couple of days. Unplesant cleansing symptoms; Very

bloated and uncomfortable. (Feel like I am overeating on the fruit) i am so

- so cold. (have tended toward that way in cool climates in anycase)Thick

coated tongue and natural inclination to fast. This isnt suitable just now -

with all these upside down emotions.. I would likely be inclined toward

" other foods " So in actual fact, inwardly I am P+ (positive) Because there

is no where to run any more - no vacation from Kay! (ha!)

 

Yuh know those books by Neil Donald Walsh - " conversations with God " ? Well,

I was fortunate to listen to them on tape some while a go - Just like

listening to God !!! Ha-Ha-HA!!!!

 

And something came to mind when I got your emails.. " The Wake up Call " - You

mention . In the book " God " speaks of " RE-MEMBERING " who we are. And part of

our task is to help others re-member because we are All One.

 

So Thank you today for " RE-MINDING " me who I am. I feel pretty rough.

Emotionally wired and hardly got in a wink's sleep

last night - but the day has got Better and BETTER

Love in Flow

Beautiful, Kay. When I wrote those couple of messages the other day, I knew

I was taking some risk, speaking to you in that way. Yet I also knew that

somewhere, someone MUST speak to you in this way, with this level of honesty

and forthrightness. I am very grateful you are receiving my messages as I

intended them -- to help you toward greater clarity and connection with

yourself. It seems this is happening right now!! Yaay!!

 

I encourage you, for now, to consider every choice from at least this

perspective...ask yourself this question: If I choose this course or action,

does it become a part of my lifelong program, or is it primarily a one-time

attempt to fix something? This relates, for example, to your upcoming

choices about fasting. If you are fasting, in the context of lifelong shifts

and choices, then you will likely be overjoyed with the results you get, do

the fast. But if you are fasting to " lose weight " or to accomplish any

specific, monolithic target or goal, you will likely not retain the results

of your fast in the long run, now is not the time to fast.

 

In other words, it's not the fast that matters, but rather the mindset

beneath the fast.

 

I hope my example, though a bit simplistic, is clear nonetheless.

 

Best to all,

Elchanan

Now HERE we have the universe representing the reflection of my

highest

self. Truly you are Re-Minding me now!x

 

If I were to fast right now (i never fast with a goal to lose weight -

I am not a weight loss " addict " but more a .. " purity addict " ) Then

the

mindset would be one of fixing. The fast would most likely be far

from

illuminating and thus be a strain on my resources.

 

The fast will come when I am ready to let go.

 

Last summer was my first " successful " fast - Other's before that

were " fixing " something; Had I not been at Loren's i would have

likely

ended amidst the middle.

Last year I fasted, mostly on my own in a small flat in the center of

town. And the flow was successful.

 

I dont wish to keep up what has been an endless cycle of building one

brick and then knocking it down.

 

Perhaps it is so " frigging " awful right now (dont ask what that

expression means!)

BECAUSE -

I am truly facing the yak-yak-yak of mindless blurb and learning

to watch, without acting.. Like: Emotions donot have to become

choices

that one acts on..

(Yeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh)

This is it.. NOW.

The conversation regarding fasting has been of great interest to me. I have been

fasting regularly for some time now, including some of my SAD years, as a

spiritual discipline. I have continued it while making dietary changes over the

years, but this conversation has had me thinking and re-evaluating my purpose in

doing this. Kay's use of the phrase " purity addict " really struck home for some

reason, and that has triggered some serious thought on why I keep on with this

particular practice. Even though, ostensibly, I am not fasting for weight loss

reasons or health, there is still something of the mindset that something in me

needs to be 'fixed,' and this is the way to do it. I am still not quite working

at one with my body; I am enforcing a fast even when my body is hungry and

asking for food; and on non-fast days, I find myself eating even when not

hungry, because it seems necessary. I think perhaps, at least while I am still

in early learning mode, I should practice listening more

to what is going on inside of myself, rather than imposing practices; at least,

until I have become more healthy. I am having trouble putting more of this into

words, so I'll just go and think some more....

 

Peace, Valerie
