Hello,
I am a 38 yr old drug and alcohol counselor. I have had something strange happening and am looking for some guidance and explanation. Maybe you can help?
I am the manager and counselor of a Women's Drug and Alcohol Recovery Home and occassionally I will use sage to smudge with the women I work with. My intent is to clear energy while doing this. However, while I smudge the women I have always perceived areas of the body that "feel" different to me while I am smudging. I never gave this much thought and always minimized any possible importance until recently.
I was smudging many of the women, one at a time, and while doing so and going over their bodies I was having this experience that at certain areas it just feels different to me, maybe stuck or empty or something. I really cannot describe it. this time however, I remembered the areas and asked the ladies later if there was some significance. For instance, one woman, I perceived it when I got to the back of her head. (In my mind I actually saw her head as being an empty gaping hole in the back of her head--it wasn't gruesome it was just like an empty bowl or something) Another her knees.(this one, I didn't see any picture, just felt different from the rest of the smudging) And the pregnant women I felt it when I got to her abdomen (this one, I felt a shock of joy jolt through me, I became momentarily elated).
Later, when I asked the one about her head, she said that she had been assaulted and was at that time hit very hard on the back of her head about two years ago and received a concussion.
I asked the women about her knees and she said she had always had problems with her knees, even had surgery when she was young.
And of course the pregnant women, I just received this total joyous warmth and elation.
So, my question is...what the heck is going on? I am open to all explanations and I lead a spiritual life. I am just wondering what this perception is and if there is a holistic branch you might recommend to me to begin researching or learning about this.
thank you for any information or suggestions, I am quite ignorant albeit very open about holistic healing or energy work or any of this stuff and am wondering what this might be and if I might use it to help others in some way.
Thank you very much.
