Serving Souls

"Fixing and helping maybe the work of the ego,

and service the work of the soul."

Rachel Naomi Remen

We can view life through our efforts of helping, fixing, and serving. If we are helping someone, we may be seeing them as weak. If we attempt to fix a person, we may be overlooking their strengths. When we choose to serve, we are contributing to the unexplored wholeness of the soul. 

Through listening without an agenda, we can hear what the person is needing help with and how they wish to achieve it. We can use their thoughts to build corrective action that is in alignment with them. By serving, we can assist souls reach what they desire, not what we think they need.

When serving, we can be the safe space where souls can wander through the clutter of their mind Hearing them randomly express fears, we get a broader picture of what they may be resisting. Through prayer, meditation, or energy work, balance can be restored. Respecting each other as souls propels us towards realignment. 

 

An Aspect of Healing

"Healing may not be so much about getting better, as about letting go of everything

that isn't you ... all of the expectations, all of the beliefs ... and becoming who you are."

Rachel Naomi Remen

For a moment, think back to when you were a child and hurt some part of the body. What was the first thing you did? Probably, placed your hand on the wound ... a very natural instinct. Glancing over your lifetime, what was the most used gesture when someone was hurting? More than likely, you hugged and held them. Also, a natural reaction.

Women have been historically the victim of losing control over their body, silencing their voice, and minimizing their power. Fortunately, in today's world, we learn of healing energy moving through the body. Through talk therapy, we experience the removal of repression and improved health. Using creative expression, freedom. 

Healing of the body, mind and spirit are necessary considerations in our world as each one impacts the other. When we invest in improvement of the self, a balance occurs which impacts our presence in the world. There is a greater tendency to move towards peace on earth and good will towards all peoples.
