The Felt Sense Prayer I am the pain in your head, the knot in your stomach, the unspoken grief in your smile. I am your high blood sugar, your elevated blood pressure, your fear of challenge, your lack of trust. I am your hot flashes, your cold hands and feet, your agitation and your fatigue. I am your symptoms, the causes of your concern, the signs of imbalance, your condition of dis-ease. You tend to disown me, suppress me, ignore me, inflate me, coddle me, condemn me. I come to garner your attention, to enjoin your embrace so I can reveal my secrets. I come to reveal my secrets. I have only your best interests at heart, as I seek health and wholeness by simply announcing myself. You usually want me to go away immediately, to disappear, to slink back into obscurity. You are mostly irritated or frightened, and many times shocked by my arrival. From this stance you medicate in order to irradicate me, ignoring me, not exploring me is your preferred response. More times than not, I am only the most recent notes of a long symphony, the most evident branches of roots that have been challenged for seasons. So I implore you, I am a messenger with good news, as disturbing as I can be at times. I am wanting to guide you back to those tender places in yourself, the place where you can hold yourself with compassion and honesty. If you look beyond my appearance, you may find that I am a voice from your soul, calling to you from places deep within that seek your conscious alignment. I may ask you to alter your diet, to get more sleep, exercise more regularly, breath more consciously. I might encourage you to see avatar reality and worry less about the day to day fluctuations of life. I may ask you to explore the bonds and wounds of your relationships. I may remind you to more generous and expansive, or to attend to protecting your heart from insult. I might have you laugh more, spend more time in nature, eat when you are hungry, and less when pained or bored, spend time every day, if only for a few minutes being still Where ever I lead you, my hope is that you realize that my success will not be measured by my eradication, but by the shift from the eternal landscape from which I emerged. I am your friend, not your enemy. I have no desire to bring pain and suffering into your life. I am simply tugging at your sleeve, too long immune to gentle nudges. I desire for you to allow me to speak to you in a way that enlivens your higher instincts for self care. My charge is to energize you, to listen to me with a sensitive ear and heart of a mother attending to her precious baby. You are a being so vast, so complex with amazing capacities for self regulation and healing. Let me be one of the harbingers that lead you to the mysterious core of your being, where insight and wisdom are naturally available when called upon with a sincere heart.
