My Dream: Setting The Turtles Free
What does Steven Farmer have to say?
Well, he has ‘tortoise’, not ‘turtle’, but here we go:
When you’re feeling pressure from a number of fronts–pulled this way and that by the demands of modern life–it’s very easy to succumb to a false sense of urgency, feel out of balance and fragmented, and be in a constant state of tension. You can become forgetful and have difficulty sleeping. You may even attempt to stabilize and center yourself by resorting to the use of substances or activities, hoping they’ll make you feel more at home in your own skin. Meanwhile, your mind rushes ahead from one thing to the next, while your body tries to play catch-up. The technological web consisting of computers, faxes and television–plus the noises all around–creates a constant assault on your senses. Exhausting isn’t it?
First, recognize most things that you treat as emergencies or crises are merely inconveniences. Then slow down! Move a little bit slower than your’e accustomed to, and practice breathing slower and deeper every opportunity you get. This in itself helps you align with your internal rhythms, rather than being in a state of continuous reactivity to outside forces. Spend time in Nature and take off your shoes and socks. Putting your bare feet on the ground allows you to only experience your solid connection to the Earth. When you do, notice the difference in how you feel, and see if your mid isn’t at least a bit calmer. It may be challenging at times to do any of this, but it can be done. It just takes your clear intention and willingness.
Here is what he has to say about ‘rattlesnake’, not ‘snake’:
The foundation for compassion is an awareness that suffering is a natural part of life, whether through the empathic appreciation of another being’s pain or the experience of having suffered oneself. And which beings haven’t at times felt the pain or sorrow that is an aspect of living on this planet? The deeper you go into the soul of another, the more you can feel what they feel, yet paradoxically maintain a certain distance or objectivity.
A true Healer must heal from the heart, no matter what technological, logistical, physical or shamanic tools they use. The experiences that your’e going through now or have just completed are all a preparation for you to open your heart to the suffering around you and do your part in alleviating it. You’ll find that you’re increasingly being asked to offer your time and energy to help heal others–including not only people, but also animals, plant beings, tree people, and ultimately, our Earth Mother. Some of this healing power exist between races, ethnicities, and other species.
You’ll notice more and more how often your hands will spontaneously feel energized, experiencing it as heat or a tingling sensation. This is the Power of Spirit working through you. Allow it to guide you in whatever the focus of your healing is, whether simply placing a hand on the shoulder of a friend, or more extensively and directly involving yourself in another being’s health.
