Wet Your Bed with Worry

Whew! I have been going through quite the transformation, and a lot of emotion coming up. What I've realized is I've been attaching to, resisting and judging perceived "financial" stuff.

Yet, what I know is that the appearance of "financial" is not what it really is. It's only my mind telling me a story about it, and my reaction to what is, and then continuing the story time in the middle of the night . I mean who wants to awaken in the middle of the night to a scary story? Yikes!

What I haven't been doing is living in the now and being one, being present, with what is, and that's why the "what is or the content" is being perceived as so powerful. My ego has tried to protect me from "feeling" whatever emotion that is there because then I get to create my identity through my ego. My ego needs me to survive and it will stop at nothing to make its existence known.

The ego is not intended to go away, just to stop being the big me, and become the little me. I love Eckhart Tolle's work, and am grateful that my brother, Bob, is on the same path. With this said, Bob left me a message on my cell phone two days ago, and read an excerpt from Eckhart's book, the Power of Now. And it was exactly what I needed to hear…feel the feelings, but don't judge them or label them. Simply feel and allow the emotion to dissolve naturally.

Thus, I've been letting "it" express itself. Being aware of this has helped me tremendously, and I trust it will help you as well.

Here's something that you can use, which has been helping me as well.

Have you ever awakened in the middle of the night with worry? Your whole body feels it, and this emotion acts as if you are dying. You may sweat and have heart palpitations, and it appears very real. It's the ultimate Yikeorama .

You know, I used to wet the bed when I was in grade school. What I've learned is that my body was experiencing a lot of emotion, and it just happened to release it in this way. It wasn't always funny for my sister, who just happened to share a bed with me. Yet I can think of no better way to pay her back for all the mean thngs she did .

When you think about wetting your bed in this way, worry does tend to expel itself all over the place in your bed. If you had a special camera that would be able to capture all the fireworks going on, I'm sure it would display a real "soaking and drenching" of emotion.

I do have a technique you can use, and one you already aware of…..

When you awaken and the emotion of worry is there, allow it to be and just breathe with it. Worry wants to express itself, and by allowing it to do so, and becoming one with it, it will expel itself through a natural process. And pretty soon, the worry has been transformed into peace.

Breathing into whatever emotion is there is the most loving thing you can do. Our ego will want us to hide from our feelings because it wants to protect us. Why do you think there are multiple personalities? Simply put, they are subpersonalities utilized for protection.

Do you know how many times I have abided by my ego and not felt whatever I was feeling? Well, where do these feelings go that aren't expressed? As stored emotions just waiting for an opportunity to arise.

I now am fully expressing whatever I feel, and when I wake up and am feeling worried, I just breathe and become one with it. Really, it's so awesome as when you become one with something, it loses all its "perceived" credibility
