Balancing Self Acceptance

Balancing Self Acceptance

In March of this year, my husband Lynn and I had the great pleasure of meeting, sharing and being blessed by Lindsay Wagner (deeksha blessing), by participating in an experiential workshop, she calls “Quiet the Mind, Open the Heart”. In addition, I was further blessed by being invited to her home for a private session for several hours, where she re-awakened my knowledge of EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) and also known by several other names. She also reminded me how our past experiences, with our inner file cabinets, color our perceptions of the world and our reactions to it. Like a particular incident that causes pain that we refuse to allow to heal, and even though we are very intelligent, our familial and/or societal upbringing, beliefs and responses can program us to react in ways that rob our joy in daily life. She helped me to explore my prior programming and shift my perspective beyond it, “to experience life as it is in the moment.”
One of the most profound gifts she gave me were the words upon this image, a new daily practice of mine ~ while touching just above the heart in a circular motion, I say each of these phrases three times, especially when experiencing any stress, but most often a daily mantra. It has had such a healing effect on regaining some power within my life, I thought I would share it here.
Image is a sketch of scales balanced, photographed and edited in photoshop7 with fractilius filter and text.
My hope and intention is that those that will benefit from this simple tool, will utilize and share it to heal themselves and others.

    This is a lovely image, Tk. Thank you for sharing your story, and for sharing this healing technique. I love the idea of the balance. I will certainly use this gift of yours, whether I’m stressed out or not. Sometimes we just need to get back to our individual selves. Agnes xx

    thank you Agnes, until we accept ourselves, don’t think there’s much chance of healing anyone else…;) xoxox ♥

    I’m familiar with EFT and some other energy healing techniques spiritually guided so your image really spoke to me and the beauty of your words. Thank you for this reminder of self healing-body mind and spirit.

  • tkrosevear replied

    I studied EFT years ago and put it aside when clients thought it to be too simple to work, I was quite thankful for the reminder and appreciate your love and support Susan ;) xoxox ♥

    Extra cool idea!
    Personally I would “Balancing Self Acceptance” vertically down the frame of the scales and in a typeface which as though it is inset into the scales…
    Hell am a fussy old….

    Tammy thank you sharing this with me….....these scales would never fit on the crude shelf of a hardware shop…..they are too precious for that. A visual like this has such a positive affirmation to visualize….I gratefully take them with me today….and will call upon their balance as I need. I just gotta remember….that is mostly my problem I find…remembering. XXX

  • tkrosevear replied

    as is mine my friend, have to remind myself constantly ~ felt very moved to share this with you KS, love to you always ;) xoxox ♥
