MY 10 DAY WATER FAST IN NATURE…

MY 10 DAY WATER FAST IN NATURE…

Me, Myself and I

 

Surrounded by nature, I will soon be embarking on my 8th 10 day water fast, which means nothing but pure fresh spring water, straight from the rocks for 10 whole days and 10 whole nights. 
I am so excited to be doing this ‘fast’ in beautiful Bali, away from everyone and everything, except a few locals, the trees, the waterfall and the monkeys 🙂  It’s time to grow, time to ‘go within’ and face the shadows that still lay lurking there.  It’s time to take this ‘game of life’ to the next level and move forward again on my spiritual journey of life. 
Whilst I am facilitating retreats, I give of myself wholeheartedly, 100%, to those that come to me for guidance and healing and so, every now and then, my Soul yearns for that same nurturing and growth.  I honor that… after all, if I do not, I will be no good to anybody…. a lesson that I in the past, along with many of the guests who end up at my retreats have learned the hard way.  

We are the creators of our reality!  If you choose to be healthy and full of life and vitality you will be, as long as you have the courage to let go of fear and are willing to step outside of your comfort zone and do WHAT EVER it is that is necessary to heal and transform, including re-assessing and changing your thoughts and beliefs taken on as a child, that are keeping you small and not good enough!  None of this is truth, it’s simply the truth of  the ‘PERCEPTION of a child’!
All sickness originates from a sick mind… meaning all physical dis-ease manifests from negative thoughts, blocked emotions/energy.  My body shows me this so quickly and clearly these days.  For instance, if I am holding words inside and not speaking my truth I will, within hours, have a sore throat!  Along with this, the Cosmos is always giving us signs.  My whole spiritual journey has been guided so clearly by signs, it is beautiful and amazing and fascinating and…. well, you get the picture, I just love it!!  In fact, very recently I was faced with a challenging situation.  I was sitting outside having a cuppa on the step in the sun, feeling stubborn and stressed and cranky when a bird decided, from the tree above, to poop right on my head!!  🙂 haha, yep, right on top of my head, which then splattered all over my jeans… thank goodness it was cold and I was wearing a beanie 🙂  See, there’s always a positive side!!  Most people would have completely ignored this and probably walked off in disgust, but I thought to myself “what the heck is this about?”… and then I ‘got it’.  I was being a ‘shit head’, clear and simple!  In that moment I took the Universe’s advice and looked at the situation from the other person’s point of view which resulted in the whole situation miraculously transforming before my very eyes, without me having to do anything at all!
Whilst extended water fasting, it is not just the physical body that detoxifies, but also the mind.  I love this, and am thinking that for this 10 day water fast, I will help my Soul along and challenge myself further by  ‘being in silence’.  I’ve never participated in a vipasana retreat before, so it will certainly be interesting 🙂  I’ve been asked to check in along the way, so I will try to post a little video every few days, but apart from that, silence it is….
I head off tomorrow for my 5 week Goddess Warrior journey, beginning with 2 weeks of yoga, research for my new healing book, juices and raw foods in Ubud, then off to the seclusion of North Bali to be nurtured by Mother Nature and her Angels of AFEW, air, fire, earth and water…….OK, chat to you along the way 🙂
Here’s the poem I wrote recently for all the beautiful women I know, that are walking their Soul’s path, facing the challenges that come with evolution… this is for you Goddess Warrior’s…

To you Goddess warrior, I whisper the song of sweet surrender

Stop holding… stop fighting… be soft… be still…

Goddess of the Sacred Temple who knows hatred not,

For you have dared to face the devil within, and slay the demons lurking beneath the shadow of the mind,

Delving into the deepest depths of the Dark Night of the Soul and begging to be torn apart, until tears of terror burned the cheeks of the forlorn child within like acid on a silken gown, leaving her exhausted… breathless… silent…

 

To you Goddess Warrior, I whisper the song of sweet surrender

Stop holding… stop fighting… be soft… be still…

Spirit Warrior, why do you choose to fight the light and suppress your truth?

There is no greater love than self-love, no acceptance more precious than that of thy own,

Look into the sacred waters within and you will find mirrored there, perfection, and beauty in its fullest expression

Sovereign Being of Love and Light,

Accept the glory bestowed upon you as you journeyed through the tunnel of life,

From the womb of flesh, to be cocooned by the embrace of your beloved Mother Earth,

Be free now of the chains that suppress your Soul and hold you prisoner to your own human form,

Allow now, for that smouldering ember to burn brightly and rage wildly with passion and desire for life,

For like a bird with clipped wings, she longs to fly, to soar like and eagle on the ever changing winds of life, and rule like a queen of her Inner Kingdom.

 

To you Goddess Warrior, I whisper the song of sweet surrender

Stop holding… stop fighting… be soft… be still…

For only then will you know truth and disregard without haste all forms of self-judgement, criticism and the unworthiness that torments your Soul,

Only then will you claim your divinity and allow the light of truth to illuminate the world, both inside and out, in an offering of unconditional love, peace and freedom,

Only then will you know the eternal existence of life, and hear the whisper of Spirit on every breath of air, every crashing ocean wave and every ray of sunshine that penetrates your skin an permeates your Soul,

Only then will you embrace the eyes that truly see, and ears that hear the sounds of your own true sacredness

 

To you Goddess warrior, I whisper the song of sweet surrender

Stop holding… stop fighting… be soft… be still…

Lots of Love
Lynnie
