I’ve been into food as a health and consciousness ally for a really long time, and in particular, over the last 14+ years, raw vegan food, which has allowed massive healing for me on many different levels. And while I’ve said so many times (and it’s been on my website forever) that everything is food, watching Bad Surgeon the other day, the truth of this really hit home.
I knew, when I clicked on this show, browsing for something to just relax with in a few precious kid-free hours, not to watch it. Then, somewhere around minute 12, the voice was so loud inside of me, telling me to turn it off post haste, that I didn’t want to fill my mind with this crap, turn back, blah blah…that I had to pause the series and actually listen closely to its admonitions. But did I listen? No! Well, I did. I turned it off briefly and then reasoned that really there was probably something in it I needed to see/hear/learn, or I wouldn’t want to watch it so much, and besides, maybe this was just some superego attack and I should brush it off.
So.
Brush it off I did.
And Hell’s bells, as my mother would say, did I pay.
This series triggered a whole bunch of stuff for me. Which, okay, I’m all about bringing up and releasing old energies.
But there’s a certain point in which we’re just reviving and reenergizing old negative stuff that’s already on its way out.
**If it was completely processed already, I’d have had zero interest in watching this show, or at least not been triggered by it**.
But, as it was, I was, um…slightly obsessed.
It threw me into a state of disregulation. Like, no fun. None at all.
For two days this show haunted me and I could not shake it, this ugly dark feeling that morphed into anger and dread in the wee hours of the morning. Finally, I consciously engaged in an extended process of release and thank you Lord it was gone.
I don’t know the Ultimate Plan of the Universe, and I guess I watched this show because that’s where I was in my conscious evolution and in that sense, needed to. It was a great lesson in listening to my higher knowing, of which I was quite clearly aware in this situation.
But in any case, my point is that everything is food.
Some food is deleterious to your health, and some is supportive. Same for who we spend time with, what activities we engage in and what we watch, Netflix or otherwise. And if we binge (interesting that “binge watch” is a term…), on bad food or bad-otherwise, we have to pay the piper, whether we’re consciously aware of this or not. If we’re fortunate enough to recognize the need for and perform a detox, yay; it’s got to come out, one way or another. If we’re unaware of the need for detox, then our ever-faithful system (whether the input was Mickey D’s or a creepy, low vibe show), our poor bodies take the hit, storing the toxic crap away where at some point it will leak out and bring us down in one way or another.
Better to get that crap out. And better yet, not to ingest it in the first place.
So, during this season of celebration, holidays and often (why?) bad-for-us food, perhaps it’s a good time to examine what we’re putting into our sacred systems—in all ways. I think we’re always ascending in consciousness and realizing when we’re done with a low vibration this or that; it’s an ongoing process, and being holistically “done with” everything deleterious seems a bit illusory. But wow, am I done (I hope) with this kind of thing on Netflix or anywhere else.
But it’s not about Netflix.
Intuition, if we heed it, is our infallible guide—which is the real-always-point: listen to your Self.
If we trust our higher knowing, our True Self, then we don’t have to come from a place of fear and totally disengage with Netflix, FB or anything else (although really, why not?). Ultimately, when we honor this voice over and over, the bad stuff just isn’t on our radar anymore.
And with that…
Happy New Year!
Just a side note: detoxing via fasting or IF is super beneficial and something I’ve done intermittently (heh heh) for years. My friend Analese recommended Dr. Mindy Pelz’ Fast Like a Girl, which I read today—and recommend!
How many times a blog do you hear this;? "I so needed to hear this this very day! "
I kid you not, I just typed into the Youtube search "trust youe gut." Then, checked my email and saw your new blog alert!
As soon as I post this on your blog in appreciation, I'm going back to Yourube and will type in "Forgive yourself for not trusting your gut and accepting the toxic chemo treatment but just stop this madness now "
Very seriously, your words are magical and entertaining. I'm really glad you manifested into this reality! Cheers!
