If I Were Kkkking of the Ffffffforest….

This is going to be short and sweet because at the moment I can’t completely fill you in. But here’s what I want to share with you, my beloveds, today. You know how much I love New Thought teacher Florence Scovel Shinn right? Well, Florence tells that everytime you become fearful of something….ANYTHING….you are creating an experience that won’t turn out well until you TURN THE TABLES on yourself and take your power back. She tells this little story about the ‘lion’ being your ‘fear’ and how it’s Universal Law that if you walk up to and face the lion and look him in the eyes - then in all likelihood he will turn tail and walk away. That’s the best result. The LEAST but really great result (still!) is that you will have pulled your own power back to you EXACTLY where it should be! And, of course, right where it belongs. I wish I could tell you now what I will share with you in the future, but, this much I can say….
There is a reason I have an obligation to face down my own lion right now. I have to do it for me. I have to do it for my son. And I have to do it for you, because if I don’t walk my own talk then NONE of you should listen to one bullshit word I say. Unless it’s not bullshit and it works and I’m the one who shows you so. So, for all those reasons and many more today I took back my power. Oh, and I also got a diagnostic mammogram to follow up on a recent but real breast cancer scare and so far am clean as a whistle. Tumeric. Fulvic acid. Of course I am! Oh, and my second book FINALLY went out for sale today too. Yeah, busy day but an especially consuming last few weeks.
That said, I’ve also been walking my talk in other ways these days too. I needed to increase my own sense of courage these last few weeks for all of the aforementioned so I actually have been using a courage inducing mudra (hand position) that unlocks all the courage we all have locked within that can be unleashed and released exactly when we need it most!
Oh, c’mon, you didn’t think I was just going to whine didya? NEVER. If you have to put up with my moaning there MUST be some payoff for goodness sakes!
Take your right hand in front of your heart and put it palm facing up. Take your left hand and put it on top of the right hand and lock your fingers together inside each other. So the fingers from the left hand should be pulling on the fingers from your right. BOTH thumbs should be pressing against the pinky/little finger on the opposing hand. NOW thinking of what you need to raise courage for, pull your fingers in opposite directions. Press your thumbs against the outer fingers. Breathe and see yourself as victorious in whatever affair has you on the ropes.
“They will not force us,
They will stop defaming us,
They will not control us,
We will be victorious” - Muse
Yes, there was an INTENTIONAL changing of the lyrics in there.
And by ‘they’ those lyrics do mean your own inner fears. The lion. Out of the wardrobe and waiting for the witch to tell you what to do. Lock those fingers, look the lion in the eye and don’t wait one more scary second to bring out what you already own inside of you.
Because YOU are already the Kkkkking of the Ffffforest, not queen, not duke, not prince! XOE
