issue 5 ♡ keeping a foot in the spiritual & physical doors
dear doris. how do you ground yourself when you feel like you are spinning & out of balance? how do you cope with the head noise of social media & trying to be apart of it but keeping your distance & not absorbing things.

the first part of your question is received from higher consciousness through meditation and journaling then the second is answered from my earth-bound self.
please note that ‘god’ could be substituted for any vernacular or venerable you prefer and heaven can be replaced with the spiritual plane that aligns with you.
part 1
you are a child of god/source consciousness. you are a light being of grace and soul. however you are also human and to be human is an experience on earth. as you open up your channel to spirit it is important to keep one foot on the floor. keep one foot in both doors — the spiritual and the physical. otherwise we get lost and float away. hold that helium balloon high however anchor yourself with love into the ground.
know you have a place there. you are just yet to find a piece of earth you want to anchor into — be it dirt, grass, a riverbed or swampy marsh or faery moss. but keep hovering and float over the terrain until you find a speck of dirt to call home. when you do — position yourself over this plot of yours and anchor in, squishing into the earth. squelch your toes and wriggle into the worm(hole) farm — all the while holding your head high to the heavens and connected to grace, god and source consciousness.
how special it is to be in this space. enjoy the strangeness of ether, being neither here or there or anywhere, without a care. you are protected by your guides and source. tune into your guardians and call them at will, set boundaries energetically around you to protect your vulnerable state of being.
like a soft shell crab moving from one shell to the next — the move is dangerous to outside prey and so seek protection from a higher source. imagine you are that crab — shell-less, soft and easily harmed but also so easily influenced by your higher self and higher perspective.
tune into the wisdom that you seek and cherish that open channel of vulnerability. you may feel physically weak but it is a potent and powerful time of growth and acceptance of your existence on earth and aligning with your superpowers — your gifts granted from many many lifetimes accumulated before this one leading you here.
be present in your state of being — irrespective of how loose and lonely it may seem. the quiet introspection serves to let you know what matters — are the matters of the heart and matters of the mind follow.
auto-pilot season exists for good reason, so you can grow into your new shell, free of debris and sand getting in your way. nestle into your shell and feel your way around. it will feel like home but expanded. as your heart is expanding it needs more space to emanate and grow with porpoise.
feel the walls of your new shell and how light and mobile it is and how soon it will attract other shells your way — light beings — without saying a single thing or fling or ding. they will sing in tune with you automatically and you can join the chorus or you can watch them from the sidelines until you feel accustomed to the higher vibrations of the heart and all that it wishes to express in some form of art, chart or remarks or creative sparks.
stay where you are in your spin — allow it to be and you will see that it is your soul ascending and evolving into a even greater, grander way of being.
believe that this is the path you chose — that birth would spark this and ignite this fire in you. allow yourself to believe it is true and meant to be and see that you put yourself up to it. always and forever we put ourselves through rites of passage to grow and expand and it is not always pleasant, fun or dandy. sometimes it straight up blows. but hey — you will be okay. as long as you accept that this is the way — the path to enlighten, to illuminate, to activate, to excavate, to investigate, to ruminate, to premeditate your fate.
