The Liver's Role in Creating our Life Experience

Every so often, I have an opportunity to recall and then honor the huge role our livers have in creating our moment by moment reality. The liver is the largest solid organ (other than skin) in our bodies. It is responsible for many different jobs, one of the most important being transmutation.

When we experience excesses, cravings, or imbalances in life, blockages and stagnation occur in our energy body. On an emotional level, this looks like suppressed emotion; trying to stop the feelings, judging them, or keeping them "under control", creating a build up in stagnant energy somewhere in the body.

This almost always causes some form of anesthetization--seeking relief from feelings we don't want--by using food, alcohol, tobacco, pharmaceuticals, recreational drugs, or even some type of behavior to carry us out of this uncomfortable stagnant and blocked space.

On a physical level, as we are ingesting or participating in something to avoid the experience we are avoiding, the substances we take in carry a certain frequency. We will take them in an excessive quantity, using more than the balanced body would allow, and over riding the signals to stop that our body might be sending us.

Our liver must then work very hard to transmute these substances or metabolic chemicals and by-products of our excessive behavior. Instead of completing the job, a liver in overwhelm will simply store the toxicity in "safe" little storage units, getting it out of the blood so our bodies can continue to function, but not having enough energy and time to process and transmute these chemicals for elimination.

Now they are sitting there, just vibrating at the frequency level of whatever substance they came from: alcohol, drugs, overeating; and holding the emotional energy signature of that substance in our bodies. Eventually we will become so uncomfortable with this toxic baggage in our livers, that we will repeat our craving and excessive fulfilling cycle until the feeling goes away again--temporarily, while actually adding to the liver's overload. It is the cycle of addiction in the physical form.

These toxic liver accumulations create mood swings, depression, anger, frustration, resentment, and victimization within our emotional body that keeps this cycle in place. This is why dietary change, and herbal cleansing to initiate the clearing of this toxic build up is SO IMPORTANT in healing any addictive cycle. And it is not going to be "over" in a few months or even a few years--where we can now forget about it and go back to living the way we used to.

Instead, we have to choose the path of healing and becoming more conscious--over and over again--and make it a way of life. Healing is not a destination, it is a life path. Liver cleansing becomes a permanent part of our reality, along with a new way of eating, and a new way of thinking, losing self-judgement, embracing forgiveness, and reclaiming our power and responsibility in order to leave resentment and victimization behind. It becomes the walk of a Master, one that we may spend a lifetime 'mastering", and one with a profound growth potential on every level.

Many blessings for each of us on this path of healing and cleansing! Though we ALL underestimate the level of cleansing needed to experience the kind of life we want to live, we will always get little reminders that put us back on track...

Hello fellow walkers
This has been an interesting week for me with some real highs and some terrible lows.
As an Earth activist, I try to always stay in a place of hope as despair renders me useless. This week I have felt the pain of our Earth in the face of human assault so clearly that I've become overtaken by uncontrollable sobbing. Studying the science of Earth healing and her imbalances makes it sometimes just too much emotionally. I try to redirect myself to holding healing visions and praying for the enlightenment of those who exploit her so shamelessly. The news this week of Monsanto's deeper death grip on our food and our planet has really challenged my ability to keep positive. I feel so disappointed in our leader for not taking a stand against them. It is hard to refrain from anger and even more so despair.

In the same week I felt real growth. I experienced insight and acknowledgement of my own patterns. I clearly see my lifelong habits of self sabotage. I recognize for the first time how my mind has worked against rather than with my body and spirit. I see it now before I do it instead of in retrospect. I pray I can keep this clarity of heart as this has allowed my transformative actions to begin.
Last night I had a vision. I say it was a vision because it happened in the same way as prior dream experiences that have turned out to be real. I was in a scene seeing through someone else's eyes, I did not realize whose at first. It was very chaotic and scary , I felt lost but determined to get away.Suddenly I woke with the realization that I was seeing through Tim's eyes. Tim is a 12 year old boy that I worked with in a one on one capacity 2 years ago. I was removed from the case after Children and Youth services were contacted as a result of my logs. His mother was gunning for me as I had exposed the abuse going on at home. Tim eventually was sent several counties away with his two brothers in foster care.
At school today I told someone involved in his case about the vision. Her response was she had no doubt it was real, yesterday was the hearing to determine if he would be going back or not. His younger brother had tried three time during the day to reach the school therapist.

The core diet is really helping me to tune in, I feel so grateful to have this opportunity.I savor each day.
My love to you all, Lisa
