Injury as a Portal
I'm almost fully recovered from a neck immobilization. Oh how lovely it is to have neck movement. Even washing your hair or putting oil on your face is painful. It doesn't matter how my pain and immobility arrived, but today I'm observing the lessons it has taught me.
So many things are swirling around you in your world. Child relationships, child health, parent interactions, lover and romantic partner 'dancing', career satisfaction, your contribution to society, dusting and making sure the cat litter is cleaned. ;) Oh and dishes... there's always dishes!
And then you neck stops working and actually doesn't allow you to sleep. So you stop. You must. You are unable to even lay your head down on the pillow without pain.
And there's your portal. Time is stopped. You are suspended. You are given the chance to look deeper into the conditions surrounding the onset and the relief of the discomfort. In my case, these questions seemed appropriate: Who's being a pain in the neck? How is this reflecting your inflexibility? How is this carried out in multiple relationships? What is the emotion or hurt behind it? What boundary needs to be created or limitation removed?
Maybe the pause is all that's needed and none of these questions even need to be answered because that can be a rabbit hole. But LIFE is supporting you fully and always. Take the Portal Timeout. Just see what bubbles up!
