This past week, I’ve been having a recurrence of the sinus infection that I had a month ago. You already know this if you’ve been listening to my prayers all week. My sinuses just do not like long exposure to super dry environments like planes and long car rides in the winter.
A week ago, I drove from New Jersey to Maine and it was very cold outside, so it was completely dry – all humidity was frozen because it was below freezing. I literally spent about 10 hours in the car and it just dried out my sinuses and my throat and BAM I was dealing with this thing again.
Now, I can tell you that I know, absolutely, that this is actually a manifestation of an upper chakra clearing that is bringing more expansion of Love and Light in my life and I’m grateful for it. Yay, God!
And, on the physical level I’m having symptoms and I’m looking to have the expansion without the symptoms! Friday was the worst day – I was feeling wretched, eyes watering, coughing, and sneezing. I became a snot and phlegm factory. Ugh. It’s all good, but it’s not all fun.
One thing I learned, from my Higher Holy Spirit Self, many years ago, decades ago, is that when I feel awful like that and it feels like a virus/infection, it’s best for me to take a SUPER hot bath, drink hot tea while I’m actually IN that super hot bath and then quickly get out, dress in layers, including a hat, drink more hot tea and cook that little bug until it dies!!!
I’m not a violent person, but, hey, I’m all for helping that virus DIE!
See, back in my 20’s I wondered, what’s a fever for, and I got the intuitive response “it cooks the virus dead.” That made sense to me. So, ever since then, that’s what I’ve done. Of course, I’m sure that you have to be cautious if you already have a high fever – don’t follow my advice, for heaven’s sake – but I find that this works, even if I have a temp of 100 or 101. I spike a fever and then I feel so much better.
This is what happened Friday. I spiked a fever and then within an hour that fever broke and I absolutely knew I was a lot better. I felt refreshed, free.
Our body is so smart because it’s operating on Divine Intelligence. Things go awry when we don’t follow guidance. And, hey, that’s a lot of the time, right?
Listening to the body is so helpful.
Friday night I was thinking I’d cook up some apples for dinner – but my body didn’t want the sugar, so I asked what would serve in the highest, got the answer and cooked that.
Sometimes we have a plan for a meal and then we eat that even though our body is saying, “no, that’s not the thing to eat right now.” Our ego wants to stick to the plan.
The thought of changing our mind can be unbearable to the ego. The ego feels that the plans are what provide security, but Love is our only security. There is no insecurity. We only feel insecure when we aren’t feeling loving.
Loving ourselves can seem tricky. We’re learning to listen to our “body” (drink some water) and not to listen to the mind that has the cravings (craving ice cream NOW). Cravings are in the mind, not in the body.
Learning to listen to and follow intuitive guidance is about the hardest thing we ever learn to do in this world. It’s not complicated, but we just resist it so much when we’re feeling separate from Source. When we feel separate it’s more important to listen then than at any other time.
What I know is that if we are willing, we’ll get the hang of it. Our willingness is all that’s required.
