This is just what I needed today! Thank you so much. I also partake in the Tulsi, but I will look to add some hops! EFT never disappoints and it is amazing just how effective it is as a practice. It took me a long time to “real-eyes” that I was my own saviour, compost and all. I can only say that sometimes you may not realize just how much it means for you to show up here vulnerable, brave, and just as you. You make it better. 🙏❤️ THANK YOU

You didn't have to censor yourself! I was just in the same boat as you - I knew it might not be explained but I wasn't led to at that time, just like I was curious to know more about certain things but you were aligned to write on other topics! It's all good! <,3

thank you. I didn't want to censor myself, it was just that I wanted to add another bit in the comment and there was a glitch in the system... so it ended up getting deleted (and me getting a bit flummoxed, if that's the right word)

"The word was used by Charles Dickens in his 1837 novel The Pickwick Papers and became quite common in both British and American English by the end of the 19th century2. The term is thought to have come from the words “flum maximize” or “flummux,” which are used to describe someone taken completely off guard because they are not able to figure out a problem." https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/flummox

I know. I love Dickens' playful creativity with words.

"Flummoxed" I feel this word my stomach, so viscerally, maybe more than any other word!

you're right! That's what flummoxed feels like ~ e.g. when I get flum-maximised by technology... like something flumping into my guts and twisting them.

This is so beautiful Alicia: "steaming prayers for the power of love to become the power of peace, and the love of power to dissolve and get composted like old tea bags, alongside used coffee grinds" and I love EFT. I recently noticed something I have learned about trauma whilst listening to someone who had gone through a recent traumatic event. It is the tendency to make things one's fault. The gift of this is the feeling that one can change what is happening "out there" by changing oneself. But so very often, this is not the case. I am not so sure everything is a mirror. Part of this journey for me is learning to not blame myself for the state of the world around me and to change my experience of it from the inside and let things simply be. I am still working on it all.
