Clearing Patterns!

Often we are in situations, circumstances or relationships that don't seem to be for our best and highest good. We know this to be the case because the emotional disturbance it causes. Many times we have no choice, the situation is out of our control or something we must deal with because it is family or work. It takes great strength to get out and above the intense emotion. Yet to keep looping around an emotional situation with then the mental chatter is endless and there seems no way out.

In Aharaj Yoga we would do practices that involve the body, mind and emotion to clear our field of this loop. We do it physically because there is energy fueling this disturbance and circling from mind to emotion to mind to emotion, you must try to disrupt it. We use the power of the emotion, the pain, anxiety, anger as the energy to do the movement. It gets expressed with our sound, our voice helps give expression to this energy, another way we get to move it out of our field. We mentally focus as we do this on our power to clear, protect and transmute  the emotion. Eka's video shows some highlights of Aharaj Yoga at his yoga studio in CA.

This is a powerful technique. Getting the body involved engages us to be present and stop the loop. The movement engaging all our bodies helps to break the pattern and release the energy of  it. We find ourselves feeling better right away because we have expressed the energy, we have attempted to shift the loop, we have done so consciously.

Karmatic situations can create these loops. It is a situation that happens again and again so we learn but often we keep playing the same solution and feeling the same feelings over and over. You become aware that this is not good for you, you know it is a pattern and you are finally in the awareness that it must end yet unsure how. That is why I like Aharaj Yoga. It offers a quick way to begin to break these patterns very forcefully. Never came across such a technique with speed and power as well as clear awareness. I understand why warriors used it to feel strong and focused.

It is not easy if it is karma, these are balancing actions so we must go through the situation, It is how we do that makes for more karma or clears it. If it runs us the loop, we are just caught in the cycle. If we can get above and watch it, we are one step towards release. If we can actually shift our reaction, we are then in the most powerful place because the loop, the grooved pattern is now getting disrupted. Any way we can get to this third step is the ticket to clearing. The more powerful the technique that disrupts the pattern, the easier the shift becomes.

We are constantly going to face karma and these balancing actions so we may as well get a process for it so we can continue to clear, grow and learn. I like the power ones, the active techniques because I have learned that the more bodies involved in the technique, the quicker you can break the loop.

All this sounds lovely and is mush easier said than done. To release past patterns, break looping mental emotional cycles, balance karma is part of life here. It will take force, focus and consciousness to lift. To be awake, growing and changing your ways is work so any techniques or tools we have are invaluable! If they involve physical movement they are more powerful, sound and movement are faster than mind. More active ways to shift use more energy so they are more powerful.

I offer these ideas for you to use as part of your clearing. On this earth, we go through cycles. There are highs and lows. It is just what is happening. There is no landing on this high that goes on forever. Even a Buddha will go through this cycle yet has great tools and techniques to manage the inner world and the looping mind. The power to watch, to master, to be uninvolved in it. This is the process here. Knowing to use all your bodies, all your awareness will help!
