Energy

I have a friend who quite often comments 'if only I had one tenth of your energy'.  The strange thing is that I never used to have this much energy and I don't actually conscientiously remember gaining huge amounts of energy at any one point in time.  One thing I do know though is, that I have done a lot of self development work which has obviously freed up energy within me.

Quite some years ago himself and I went to a weekend of self development lectures.  This was a very pivotal moment in both of our lives and I truly believe that without that weekend we would no longer be together.  I remember the lecturer talking about how we all suppress events/traumas and stress within our lives, using the analogy of physically holding balls down (one ball repressing each event).  As you can imagine with the number of things we go through in one life time there are a number of 'balls' that we are wasting energy on holding down.

With all the self development work I have gone through - EFT, re birthing, EMDR and more - I have effectively allowed some of those 'balls' to finally rise to the surface and bounce away, freeing up my energy as they do.  This is the only thing I can think of that has caused such a shift in the amount I am able to do in my life now compared with 10 years ago. 

Just the other day I pondered on what I actually did with my life back then and how I managed to feel so tired.  Obviously holding and juggling balls is bloody exhausting and I'm glad that some of mine have been laid to rest.
