Light Workers Are You Listening to Your Body?

     

Image from: http://www.balancedforlifecoach.com/reasons-why-you-may-not-be-seeing-results/

              I often get asked questions about my diet and exercise routine from friends and colleagues who are seeking to make improvements in their lives. I do really appreciate that people respect me for my knowledge as most know I am quite committed to my diet and workout programs. I always begin with saying that although I have a lot of personal experience

"I do advice you to learn to get to know your own body. "

You need to pay attention to what your bodies needs are. As each of us are individuals and no two bodies are completely alike. Furthermore, my diet and exercise  programs are constantly changing according to my lifestyle and my needs. And so should yours.

     I want to start this post by emphasizing that your body is always communicating to you. it's letting you know what its needs are and it physically responds to how you treat it. That includes your diet, exercise program as well as your thoughts and feelings. Taking the time to listen and to pay attention to what its saying to you takes a bit of practice. Before I plan what I am going to eat I:

•  Ask my body what it needs 

•  Listen to my body's response

•  Allow my internal GPS system to guide me to the right foods

I use this technique in the gym as well. I am then guided to what exercises I should do and also which ones I should avoid.

Pain means "Pay Attention Inward Now!"

Image from http://healthvigil.blogspot.ca/p/health-quotes-thoughts-and-sayings.html

It's a negative physiological response that has manifested because you've ignored a negative emotional feeling that you have carried for too long. It's been buried, suppressed and ignored. I can't tell you how many times when I was a practising physiotherapist I heard the words "I thought the pain would go away but it didn't" And now they were sitting in front of me months latter having suffered through the symptoms till they could not stand it anymore. The source of all pain begins from some place where there is a lack of emotional well being. Healthy thoughts means a healthy body.

When there is pain your body is telling you to think healthier thoughts. There is a direct emotional physical feedback mechanism. Much the same way your body is constantly giving you feedback about your environment, what you eat and the types of exercise that's good for you. It's when you ignore your body you fall into trouble.




But the benefits of being in tune, listening to your body and taking appropriate action include:

• Feeling Grounded
• More energy
• Greater sense of well being
• A More positive outlook 
• Lowered stress

And more importantly it optimizes the function of your physical vessel when you are offering yourself to be of service!

      Vibrationally light workers are now evolving at a faster rate and to higher frequencies. Consequently our sensitives to our environment, what we expose ourselves to, the things we eat and how we treat our bodies is changing. My diet and exercise routine has been modified accordingly to my vibrations. As such I have to pay more attention to my exterior and internal environments. I no longer watch the news or read the newspaper. I don't feel good when I see or hear topics that are drama or fear based. It makes me feel ill. And when I am at a lower vibration a healthy meal and workout shifts me to a higher one.

      My body does not like any refined sugar, processed foods and synthetic ingredients. If it's not real I don't want to eat it.  In fact if I do I immediately feel bloated, ill and fatigued. Contrary I get excited for kale, all things green leafy and or raw vegetables.

     Each one of us is on an individual soul path and journey. Therefore what we eat has to be customized to our own needs. "What are some of the changes you have noticed in your own body recently?" "What changes have you made because of it?" I'll say it again "Pay attention!"

      I also recommend that you do not get into regular eating patterns or 'diets' where you eat the same thing every day! The body likes variety. In fact it begins to adapt very quickly and you will start to lose the benefits of what you are eating.  Eating the same foods daily can lead to food sensitivities. If you're changing your diet regularly because your needs are changing then you won't have this problem. I want to point this out as often when I hear people describe their daily food intake it's much of the same thing every day.

      That said you're exercise routine should also change frequently. I change mine every week. I rarely do the same thing each time I am in the gym.

I look and see how I can change a particular exercise whether it's the sets, reps or the technique. This prevents adaptation and burn out.  Furthermore it keeps you regular and committed to your workout by avoiding boredom. Change your routine by checking in to what your body needs. If that means taking a day off then by all means do so. A rest day is still honouring your body. It means you are paying attention.

      Today's Light workers have their work cut out for them.  Many of them are so busy focusing on their  life's mission and taking care of others that they often neglect their own needs. With increasing sensitives and life evolving so quickly its even more important to make your health a priority. Begin by getting in tune with your body. Treat it with kindness.  Recognize that you are evolving and your diet and exercise program should reflect this. And finally be flexible and be wiling to make any  changes accordingly.

My Father

       

Dad's 83rd Birthday
August 25th, 2014

       The illness of a family member can really take it's toll especially when it becomes chronic. You're life and priority can certainly take a huge shift and it requires restructuring virtually everything. My dad's been in the hospital for over two months. This time, and when I say this time it's because we have been in and out of hospitals for various reasons over the last ten years, but this time the diagnosis is dementia. Watching his health deteriorate over the years has not been easy. My father was quite vital most of his younger years. But after his cardiac issues began it really affected his physicality. And since then he has survived some of the toughest illness issues including multiple myeloma. A supposed incurable cancer but for which he is and has been in remission for quite some time. He has proven throughout his lifetime that he can handle just about anything that comes his way.
     
        Despite the long list of illnesses my father has met in his life he has maintained a strong sense of resiliency. Perhaps it's stubbornness or a strong will to live. I'm not sure. Only his soul is the all knowing of his journey. Most doctors thought he wouldn't have made it up to this point in his life. But I have to wonder at what cost? His quality of life was taken away with each disease including diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, arthritis, cancer, minimal functioning kidneys and now dementia. His mobility and function declined as much of this has taken a huge toll on his physical body. The man who once boasted about being able to do the splits and break boards in his Tae Kwon Do practise resides in bed requiring the assistance of two people to transfer him from his bed to a chair. He's lost much of his physical independence and now his cognitive abilities too.

      This period has been most challenging for my mother. I honestly think that she is the strongest woman I have every met. She never complains about her own fatigue or pain. She is at the hospital by my father's side every day and has not missed a day. She prays, cooks, and supports his every need and at the sacrifice of every need of her own. She suffered a fall and hit her head during one of her visits at the hospital but was back there the next day without complaints. I have never seen anyone more dedicated and committed to someone like my mother. She is extraordinarily strong.
 
        They say that when there is a storm you should look for a rainbow. And we have been blessed as a family with so much support from friends, family, and acquaintances. We have been blessed with many rainbows. Prayers, have been pouring in for us. The phone calls come in daily for updates. All with messages of support. When you are in need of help it's like God sends you little angels from the most unexpected places and we are truly grateful for it all. We certainly don't feel alone as a family and are full of gratitude for all the help we are getting.

Mom and Dad at my nephew's wedding
June13, 2014.

       My greatest challenge has been trying to stay connected to the feeling of joy. Our future has many question marks. Staying focused on being present is hard. I think about our future. What it will be like for mom should anything happen to dad. I realize that there others who are also going through the same thing and many have as well. I know we will get through as everyone I know has too. That gives me a sense of comfort. But at the best of times I do feel like I have to make a more conscious effort to feel joy. Every moment of our lives is so precious and when we aren't feeling joy we are suffering it seems. I allow every text message of support or email to fill me up and lift my spirit. I let it carry me and hold me even if it means for a short time.
   
      The lesson I have learned is  the understanding that our calling in life isn't always going to be what we think it should be. We could set out in the world to achieve great things. But certain life events can route us to where we need to be. And at some point we have to look around and evaluate where we are and finally be at peace knowing there is no where else we need to be. Life has a funny way of working things out. It may seem like we've been thrown into the wind or turbulent seas. But like a GPS it's guiding us to a destiny that will ultimately lead to the growth of our soul.

        Each day, each moment and each breath is all we have. As I write this I look around me and I see that I am safe. I am in my home. I have food. I have clothes and as I look across the table where I'm writing I see my mom sitting on the couch after a long day at the hospital eating pistachios. It may all seem simple but it does put a bit of a smile on my face. In the midst of it all gratitude pulls me through from this moment to the next.

Angel Blessings to ALL.
 



     

Messages from the Angels: Guidance for Healthy Relationships

Messages from the Angels: Dear loved ones. Many of you are seeking support at this time to improve your relationships. You seek healthier relationships. We ask that you take a moment of reflection and see each person in your life as an opportunity to present you with lessons to help your souls journey. Teachers come in all shapes and forms. Some come with pain, some with love and some with both. Ultimately to change any situations requires personal care and attention in your own 'Self.' To feel greater love you must love yourself more. To feel respect you must respect yourself more. To feel desirable and worthy you must claim your self worth. The frequency that you emit will determine the health of your relationships. This frequency is like a wave of energy with unlimited potential. When you are in blame you are in fear. Fear doesn't change you or your situation. It only creates more fear. Chose to let go of fear now. Seek to find love for yourself as by doing so you are also falling in love with the divine within and absolutely the divine, that is your Source. Allow yourself to receive love, support and abundance knowing that you as a child of God are deserving and worthy now and always. Angel Blessings to ALL

Messages from the Angels: Guidance to Help with Transition

Messages from the Angels: Dear loved ones please be kind to yourself and surround yourself with gentle people, situations and environments. This is a period of transition in which many souls are experiencing deep and hurtful loses of all kinds. Life is cyclical and as such with endings there are also new beginnings. Being kind to yourself and allowing this time to be without resistance will transpire with complete grace and ease. Your angels are here to provide healing for you on all levels allowing you to grow with the new wisdom that all these so called loses are really here for. In fact there are no real loses as nothing is ever lost. Transition is a part of life and will be experienced by all. Choose not to suffer but get clear of your environment of all toxicity.

Life on this earth is much like a school equipped with all the resources your creator has provided for you. Seek to not to be drawn into the illusion of fear and loss but turn toward enlightenment and to learn the truth that which will only lead to elevation and ascension. May there only be light in your lives now and always. Angel Blessings to ALL

Weight Loss and the Spiritual Connection

            As part of my personal experience with my weight loss I learned much latter on in that journey that the absolute key to my success was not what I did in the gym and unrelated to what I ate. Yes you may argue that to really get control of your weight and live a healthy life you need to eat right and exercise. But I will say this, that you are a spiritual being having a human experience. You’re spirit is a part of you from the time your born till you die. You don’t hang up your spirit in the locker before you workout. Therefore every experience in your life is a spiritual one even your workouts! What prevents us from succeeding is when in our minds we treat ourselves as separate from spirit. It is this disconnection that is often where our issues lie. By staying connected to our spirit not only will we lead more fulfilled and happy lives but also we’re better able to navigate through our challenges and that includes unwanted weight! Connecting to my spirit was the key to my true success and to achieve lasting results.

            The scale went up and down over the years and I’m sure many of you can relate to this. I was obese for my entire childhood and my weight fluctuated in my twenties. I joined the gym at the age of fifteen to take control. But it wasn’t until I had a spiritual awakening in my late twenties that I saw the deeper connection. In that process I learned that I was a spirit. That my spirit came with wisdom, knowledge and awareness of the truth of who I really am. That shifted everything. My body is basically on loan. My spirit is using this body to learn all it needs to while I’m alive in this lifetime. That said my spirit is always communicating through my body what I need to know or ignoring! It holds the story of all my emotions positive and negative. I just wasn’t paying attention.

            When I was overweight I was really unhappy. But losing weight didn’t change my overall sense of happiness. What occurred to me is that my spirit was still trying to let me know that there was an aspect of my life that needed healing. My weight was just one of the symptoms of my deeper wound. Since the wound wasn’t healed the weight would simply come back. Hence the roller coaster ride. The weight was only serving to show me that I needed to go in deep and to fix my issues meant I had to do the work on the inside. Otherwise no matter what I did in the gym I would still be overweight. So instead of looking at my diet and workout routines I had to turn to my spirit for the solutions to my weight.

            My spiritual awakening taught me that all our answers lie within. To go there you need to get still and listen. This is how you connect with your spirit. You have to get quiet, ask the questions and then listen. What I learned in that process is that the fat around my belly represented a need for protection.  An adult relative had punched me in the stomach as a child and as a result the fat formulated as a defence mechanism. It served to protect me from the fear of being punched. It meant that I lived my life feeling unsafe. That fear and all fears are really illusions. But as children we don’t have enough experience to know that just because someone hit you once doesn’t mean that you have to walk through life in fear that it could happen again. That trauma or experience created that fear. Once a trauma takes place like that at an early age it gets stored in your cellular memory. And in my case it showed up as belly fat. Periodically in my life when I feel unsafe or being emotionally or verbally attacked my belly fat comes back. By working on releasing this fear has allowed me to gain control of my weight and overall sense of wellbeing. The answers were not in the gym. That only addressed the symptoms. I had to get to the source of my issues and finally be belly fat free.

           

All unwanted fat is representative of fears, negative belief systems and perhaps even traumas. You’re biological body is communicating with you all the time. You just have to learn to pay attention. It’s as simple as following these easy steps:

1. Get still

Take a few minutes to sit in stillness. Begin by closing your eyes and taking five or more deep breaths. Just enough till you feel completely relaxed.

2. Go within

By this you are posing the question you need answers to. Perhaps your question is “why do I have this belly fat?” This question serves as your intention and is the key to unlock the door to reveal what the actual fear is.

3. Listen

Allow your body to speak to you and listen to whatever thoughts, images and feelings you get. In my case I was taken back in time to when the incident of when I was punched took place. Then I was shown how this incident played it out in my life and the way it had affected me. And like myself you may be surprised about what you find out.

4. Take Action

This can be the challenging but most important part in this whole process. In my case I had to first forgive my perpetrator. Then I had to visualize myself letting go of my fear of feeling unsafe. I then filled myself with so much love that I was able to finally heal.

            I believe in this process so much that I actually made a career out of it. I now go by the title of ‘Spiritual Personal Trainer.’ I spend my life helping people reconnect to their spirit to help them transform their lives from the inside out. Before you even step into the gym it’s my mission to help clear away all the blockages that are preventing real success. To really succeed you need to learn what the unwanted weight is representing in your life. There’s always a lesson attached to it that is serving a greater purpose. The fat is generally representing a fear just waiting to be freed. As an intuitive I help guide people into the deep layers where much of these fears are buried, hidden and repressed. Once cleared physical transformation is a lot easier! When we are re-connected to our spirit we naturally make healthier choices because we already feel good about ourselves and aren’t relying on what’s external to our lives to make us happier

Now if you’re one of those people that would have a hard time doing this all on your own I’ve made it simpler for you by releasing a meditation available on my website http://farhandhalla.com/products/ to walk you through this whole process. All you have to do is listen to the sound of my voice in an easy to follow and short meditation. I also believe that I was able to get through to achieve my results with the help of my guardian angel. My guardian angel supports me always through every moment of my life good and bad. I believe angels are here to help us with any problem small or big and weight loss is no exception. You too will be introduced in this meditation to a special helper angel called your Fitness Angel. You’re Fitness Angel will walk you along through each and every step of your weight loss journey. It’s like having your very own personal trainer, nutritionist and motivator twenty-four hours a day and seven days a week. Divine support our birthright and is always available to us. We just have to ask for it!

So are you ready to really make the changes you desire? Are you ready to stop the roller coaster ride and finally get to the source of all your issues as far as your weight is concerned? If you say yes then just know that by that intention alone you will be guided to make the right choices through divine support to help you finally heal on the inside so you can look and feel as great as you want to look on the outside.

Messages from the Angels: The Way to Peace

Messages from the Angels: Dear loved ones you are at this time out of balance and in need of reharmonization. Just as each inhalation is followed by an exhalation it is necessary to follow the synchronization of the universe. Life cannot operate by only inhalation nor only exhalation. There is a natural order and flow that which if you follow will keep your life in stream like a river that flows undisturbed, naturally and effortlessly. Decluttering your life begins by decluttering your mind. Ask the noisy chatter to soften it's voice and be still if not for only two minutes. Look outside your windows and see the effects of the gentle breeze as it cascades in it's path so perfectly. Notice the wondrous colours and the way they change from sunrise to sunset. Listen closely to soft sounds of the animals and natures elements. All this in a short time will reconnect you to a natural harmonized state of being. This is peace. It is simple. There's no need to search far and beyond. There's no need to travel to the ends of the earth to escape from your lives. For your wellbeing is easily achieved when you set the intention for peace when you wake up each and every morning. Upon rising affirm "I AM PEACE." What you state after the words "I AM" will be.
