Holistic Life Designs with Gina Alzate

By Gina Alzate, The Concept Whiz

I had this very strong sense to call one of my friends the other day, and within seconds of speaking with her, I realized the reason.  She had been suffering multiple aches and pains she had not had in a very long time.  The first ache she mentioned was the sharp pain in her ears she apparently had been nursing for hours.  The second was the throbbing pain in her eyes.  As soon as she said this, I felt similar pain in my eyes and ears and the inner knowing that she was not willing to listen to anyone.

So, I relayed my immediate sense to her including the pain in my eyes and ears.  She began to tell me how much she is disliking all the gossip that had been going on in her workspace and she was disliking it tremendously.  She did not want to have anything to do with her co-workers as she felt she did not want any of their negativity to come to her.  As soon as she said this with the vehement force and apparent passionate dislike for her co-workers, I realized that the pain she had been experiencing both in her eyes as well as in her ears, were the thoughts she had been feeling about how her co-workers live through their days.  To her, they were spending their time negatively with gossip and betrayal, and she had not wanted any part of it.

What she did not realize then was the notion that what she noticed in her surroundings became magnified in her life.  The more she stayed away from her co-workers, assigning judgment on how her co-workers spent their time at work, and extending her energy passionately to her disliking their activities, the more powerful were the energies she was sending herself as well.  Since these energies were not rooted in love, what she felt was dissonance felt by her true loving self, and the resulting pain in her eyes and ears.

I became my friend’s mirror and I showed her how her body had been reacting to her not so loving thoughts.  The body speaks only the truth and when it is subjected to anything other than the truth, it aches and becomes ill.  We both came to realize that living the spiritual path continually presents us challenges to confront the truth within us.  My friend’s pains were reminders to both of us that loving thoughts heal, and the greater the conflict, the more love is warranted.  Rather than resisting her co-workers’ energy engaged in gossip and malicious thoughts, she agreed that she could choose to go right into their center instead and send out the greatest loving energy she could muster at the time.

Since love comes from Spirit, we have it in abundance.  The more she sends love out into the world, the more love comes back to her.  This act of kindness becomes healing for us all.
