The heart

[apearlofmine]

Hi all!

I'm so sorry that I haven't been around in ages, my computer broke down and I've been trying to find a new one luckily my friend is letting me borrow his laptop ;D ;D

Going from thread to thread and reading various things, it's always amazing how we seem to find exactly what we need when we need it most!! I love it! Anyway.. something brought a memory to mind that I had temporarily forgotten and I wanted to share it with you. Quite a few months back, there was a period in which my heart area felt very.... pressed. I recall having trouble breathing, and it felt as if there was a clenched fist around the energy there. It was triggered by certain people or circumstances and didnt' seem to be related to any emotions I was feeling at the time (No I was not in love ) It struck me one day, the realization and importance of being sensitive to these things. I starting researching the heart chakra in particular and found a lot of interesting information but nothing that seemed right, and for a time after that, whenever I would think about it... I could feel that clenching again, that tightness. It wasn't painful, only suffocating. Have any of you ever heard/experienced anything like this? Or in any other chakra regions? To this day, I still don't know what it was..... and tonight it just bugs me ;D In this process of learning how to love, well it's hard.

Love you all,
Alisha

hmmm... i vaguely remember that situation. with me, it comes from being smothered. from feeling you're no longer allowed to be yourself.

hope that helps.

love, shiro

Hi Alisha

I've had that feeling too, and I agree with shiro. For me it definitely comes with a feeling of being smothered, closeted and in more extreme cases a feeling of being trapped.

I went through the same thing awhile ago. Subconsciously I was holding onto something, after some deep meditation I learned to let go. It eased up and eventually went away.

We all hold things dear to our heart, what have you held dear to your heart lately?

You'll find the answer soon since you are aware now. I can send you some reiki (only if you choose me to help) just let me know

Hi Alisha

Doesn't sound silly to me..........but then I'm no expert.........The learning and new experiences never end ;D ;D

an expert? hardly. but i guess seen from a certain light, we all are experts... in living our own lives.

be well.

love, shiro
