EPH and the F Word

The big F Word is one that is regularly part of the Energy Pattern Healing sessions. But don't be shocked, because it's something we all strive for, whether we admit it or not, and often with our common sense shaking a finger at us!

Yes, I'm talking about having fun! The whole point of Energy Pattern Healing is to have more fun in our lives! It is when our energy patterns are in alignment with our intentions for ourselves that we achieve the greatest possible freedom of choice! Or, to put it another way, to have the most fun!

Fun in EPH terms means to be Fully Unlimited Now! And to do this, we must deal with all those other F words. In order to have fun, we must be:
  • Free from fear
  • Fully forgiving of ourselves, as God/dess/etc already has forgiven us
  • Actively feeeeel enfolded in the Divine flow
Having fun is the fastest, surest and loveliest way to be authentic. It assures we are fully connected with God/dess/etc, plugged right in to pure Abundance! When we do this and maintain our happiest vibration, miracles come through for us.

This is the promise of Energy Pattern Healing: that our lives will unfold gloriously, in delightful, unexpected ways. When you are up to deliberate creation, this is the deal. When you go to the grocery store and buy milk, you will soon find milk in your fridge! And since there's no way to be able to stick a timeframe to manifesting, our job is to maintain our vibration, and wait it out with patience, compassion and gratitude while the old energy patterns fade out.
Try It
In order to see which energy patterns have played out in your life, make a list of all the areas that have improved! Give yourself full credit for everything you have manifested, from the smallest, most coincidental (remember, "coincidence" is just God/dess/etc's way of showing up... and sometimes showing off...).

Love, Light, Laughter and Joyful Abundance to you all.
And gratefully in your service,

What are Energy Patterns, exactly?

Energy patterns are the templates of our souls. They are the structure that gives rise to our reality. As such, they determine our experiences. In essence, they are the filters through which the light of our ideas about ourselves and our world shines.

As we have traveled through our lives, learned some lessons, and ignored others, we have continually shaped our energy patterns. The ways in which we have grown, changed and evolved reflect the extent to which we have taken responsibility for ourselves. The ways in which we have devolved reflect the ways in which we have been ignorant, arrogant and even just plain pigheaded.

If we could see what they looked like, they’d be like a map built with fractal mathematics:
 http://www.math.umass.edu/~mconnors/fractal/intro.html which can be stunningly beautiful
http://www.hiddendimension.com/FractalMath/Mathematics_Main.html  You are in for a treat as you poke through the art galleries on this page!

Understanding fractals helps us understand energy patterns because fractals are truly living examples of Divine Paradox and mystery, and yet are in concrete, tangible physical form. They are the very fingerprints of God/dess/etc in the most ordinary of things:

  • the spirals within spirals of the fern frond, and the chambered nautilus
  • the perfect symmetry and balance of snowflakes
  • the stunning perfection of dust particles coloring the sunset as it fades
  • the play of light and foam on rolling waves
  • The leaping of individual colors in a fire in their split-second dance
Our own energy patterns are no less magnificent and no less removed from the power of God/dess/etc. As Grace moves planets through the heavens, so too it moves through our energy patterns as wind moves through chimes. Our “chiming” is the vibration we emit through the Universe.

How Energy Pattern Healing Works
With fractals, when you change one number, ergo, one little line or curve, in the basic image, that simple change is replicated throughout the entire pattern. It results in a radical, radial change in the big picture. This is how Energy Pattern Healing works. When we realize a self-destructive pattern no longer works for us, and we sit down with the Guides and Angels, what we’re asking them to do is make a change in our curves and angles. They change our basic mathematical formulae!


Try It
The Guides tell me fractals are the best way to understand how energy patterns work. Yet fractal mathematics is really only an analogy. Granted, it’s very complicated and I honestly don’t fully understand the field, but I can appreciate the principles. So, as always, I offer it up for your scrutiny, as well. This wonderful documentary on fractals  http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/fractals/ will give you an idea of what the >bleep< I’m talking about!

I am humbled and honored to have the privilege of facilitating Energy Pattern Healing. It requires utmost care, honesty, and integrity, as well as conscious awareness in order to affect positive changes. This is also why my students undergo rigorous training.

In service and gratitude, and wishing you many blessings,

Divine Birthrights: Being Heard


Ironically, as I am writing about our Divine Birthright of Being Heard, I'm discovering that my Blog updates are not being posted. I am not being heard! I've been writing this blog for over a year now, and no one has "heard" me! Wow.....this is obviously an Energy Pattern I need to heal for myself. Funny, for years I've been addressing the pattern of Invisibility with clients, which is especially common for women, but Being Heard is new in my conscious awareness. And yet (like most Energy Pattern issues) it seems ridiculously obvious now that is is on my radar!

Such is the subtly and profundity that is Energy Patterns.

So here's what I'm going to do about it:
  • Find out what my beliefs are about being heard
  • Find out how I feel about NOT being heard (so far, this one is a no-brainer: I am So frustrated I could just scream!)
  • Find out how I feel about being heard. (The feeling immediately coming up as I write this is fear of prosecution).
    • I don't feel betrayed by God/dess/etc or anyone else, so that's good. That tells me I don't have a victimhood program running in conjunction with this.
  • Following the principle of "As Above, so Below", if there's a problem with my Being Heard, then there's going to be a problem with how I hear others. So I need to get clear on my end of things - what is is I THINK I am doing versus what is it I HAVE BEEN doing. And so I need to clean up my side of the street. I will call some close friends and ask for their feedback. 
    • I will choose people I know will be honest with me, and are likely to be balanced (example: my mom will have a biased opinion; either she will be too hard on me, or too sweet and accepting, and make some excuses. Neither is helpful. Such are family members, God/dess/etc love 'em!)
    • Be honest, myself. If I invalidate their feedback because it's painful, I won't be able to fully heal the pattern. I need to accept what is, love myself anyway, and move forward with the healing process.
  • Sit down with my charts, The Guides and Angels, and delete this Energy Pattern and its supporting patterns, and weave in new Patterns.
    • It's also obvious I DO have the Pattern of Being Heard on key levels, as evidenced by the fact that I am fully functional as a native speaker of a spoken language; I am not physically mute and there is nothing physiologically or pathologically wrong with my ability to speak. Thank God/dess/etc! I am profoundly grateful for that! (If you can't speak well, people can't hear your intended communication correctly; you won't accurate Be Heard)
  • Do some journalling around what it looks like when I am (finally!) fully heard. 
    • How my manifestations will change, 
    • and how my relationships will change, as a result in the change in my vibration.
  • I will do some EFT tapping, as well, to clear out any residual energy, as well as help activate the new patterns.
In short, I wll do everything that I'd tell you to do!


And although I am fully capable of speech to the extent of verbosity and loquacity, if there is a disconnect around my being heard, I will experience (as indeed has been the case) discrepancies between my intended manifestations, and my actual manifestations.  Such is the criticality of healing ones Energy Patterns! 


Try it
Normally in this section I give you little tidbits to check out, but this time I will ask for your help. Could you please do me a favor, gentle reader, and post a comment to this blog entry to let me know if you've received notification of this post?  I would really appreciate it.

As always, I am gratefully in your service! Blessings to you all,

Divine Birthrights: Receiving



Receiving is the final step in manifesting. What it is, exactly, we receive, is equally shaped by our Energy Patterns as what we ask for (Step 1) and the Response we get from the Universe (Step 2). Just like our beliefs, Energy Patterns are in effect at every level of the manifestation process.
We already know that the stories we have around our worthiness effect both our Asking and our Receiving. The kicker is that our Energy Patterns even more powerfully - and subtly - influence this process. The easy (or easier, really) part of staying empowered to create positive change is to address our conscious levels of interaction with the universe. Translation: Our thoughts and feelings are the conscious levels of our creative process. The Subconscious and Superconscious levels are trickier because they are not nearly so obvious. It is at these levels that Energy Pattern Healing is done. EPH clients are given homework to activate these new patterns on the Conscious, 3D levels.

In order to Receive what it is we actually want instead of being at the mercy of rogue Energy Patterns and beliefs, we need to change not only our Patterns around the acts of Asking and Receiving, we need to change our Patterns around what it is we're wanting.

Example:
An entrepreneur wants more customers. She has done her homework around being worthy of asking for what she needs, as well as having her needs met, e.g. Receiving. However, if she has not changed her Patterns around people and relationships, the customers she receives will reflect that. Even the quantity of customers is affected.

Since Receiving is one of our Divine Birthrights, it is natural to feel frustrated and disappointed when what we Receive is not what we truly intended. It's important not to dismiss the feeling as the problem. Instead of reacting with "Oh - I need to change how I feel about  this", we need to look deeper and find the Pattern that has manifested. Our reactionary feelings are key indicators of the degree to which our Energy Patterns are in alignment with our intentions for ourselves.

SO, if you're manifesting not quite what you intend, keep tweaking!  Keep at it! The more diligent you are, the closer you are to Mastery!

Gratefully in your service,

"Outvibing" Your Energy Patterns



Some popular teachings really push the idea that all you have to do is focus on the positive and everything you want will manifest beautifully. Those of us who have been doing this for a while (say, oh... 10 years) have discovered that while YES it makes a big difference, it's just not that simple. If it were that simple, we'd only need one healing modality, not dozens.

Case in point: I know a gal who has been studying vibration shifting longer than I have, and has, for the last 10 years, been meditating on, focusing on, creating vision boards for, etc, her Right and Perfect husband.

And of course, she has - just like the rest of us - a lot of overcome: a worse-case scenario alcoholic upbringing (etc etc), but she's been Vibing! Good for her! AND, an important part of this puzzle is that she never got any real councelling or did 12 step Recovery as an adult, nor any other serious healing. But BOY did she keep her vibe up! And her physique. She runs marathons, is an aerobics instructor, is reasonbly wealthy, is well-educated and she's pretty.

Take a moment to think of what her relationships have been like, with all this vibing.... hnmmm... looks good, doesn't it?

And here is her outcome:
  • Her most recent steady relationship ended 11 years ago.
  • She has had a series of one-night-stands, several of whom have been coworkers.
  • A string of married men wanting to make her their Other Woman. Many of these are coworkers, too.
  • A string of men who just like her as a friend.
FINALLY hope shone through: she went to a very powerful Astrologist for a reading for her birthday for the year, and as it turns out, ALL her planets are in her Relationship House this year! Yay! Finally she'll get what she wants!

What she manifested was this: she was sexually assaulted by a married friend. She was devastated. AND her relationship with her alcoholic mother also hit an all-time low.

This story has several morals:
  1. When all your planets line up like that, it reveals what your Energy Patterns ARE, not what you think they might be, or wish them to be.
  2. You canNOT outvibe your Energy Patterns.
  3. If you want to change your foundational vibration, you must do your nitty-gritty, in-the-trenches shovel-swinging. If you want it to stop stinking, you MUST muck out the barn. You can't vibe away the manure.
This is because your Energy Patterns are the vessel that gives form to your 3-D existance. Therapy, 12 Step Recovery, and any other work that gets you swinging that shovel is critical to changing your foundational vibration.  Wounds that are not healed are trapped energy and are therefore part of that foundation. And once healed, you then have freedom of choice around your manifestations. Energy Pattern Healing is an important tool to clearing away all that manure. It  helps you uncover the Riches buried under your manure!

Love and blessings,

Mastery: Holding your Happiness Despite Crises


Holding your Happiness in the face of a crisis is the hallmark of the Master because it seems impossible, especially in these tumultuous times. Most of us are taught to stuff our distress so as not to distress others during the distress, so there's a vicious cycle of taking on responsibilities that don't belong to us, and freaking out about the situation, and then more freaking out because we recognize our attempts to shut down isn't working. It's a no-brainer that this is a recipe for emotional, spiritual and physical illness.
So how does one go about maintaining their sanity and connection to Unconditional Love in the face of impending financial ruin or a loved one dying? The answer is simple. It may not be easy, but it is simple. You stay connected to Unconditional Love by staying connected to Who You Really Are. To put in another way, you stay connected to Unconditional Love by staying connected to Unconditional Love.

This means that you recognize that this disaster is NOT who you are as a person; it is not personal. It is external to you. It does not define you, and, as with all external items, you have choices as to how you handle the emotions and beliefs that come up, and the healing that can be done around them to keep you moving forward toward greater and greater Happiness, Health, Peace and Prosperity (Yes! Your response to crises affects your prosperity, too.)

While it's very human to fall apart during a disaster, it's Fully Human to not fall apart. While this flies in the face of millennia of societal conditioning, decades - and even lifetimes - of personal habits, it is doable. Mastery is an option for all of us. If we respond to that statement with "I can't because..." we are fully faced with our conditioning, habits and especially Energy Patterns.

The key to Mastery is in our Energy Patterns. They are our Soul's master templates that give structure to our conditioning, habits and eventually our experiences. Our Energy Patterns determine the stories that fill in the blanks of "I can't because...", and Energy Pattern Healing helps us to deliberately sculpt our lives.

Try It

Next time you're feeling unsettled, ask yourself the following:

  1. Do I want to be right, or do I want to Happy?
  2. What do I need to do to reconnect with Unconditional Love?
    • Perhaps a quick trip to the Little Chapel Down the Hall - the bathroom - for a 2 minute prayer and meditation for guidance.
    • Perhaps a phone call to a friend who can help you remember your Radiance is not dependent on outside circumstances.
    • Perhaps a quick perusal of an inspiring poem or snippet of literature.
  3. What would _______ do? (The Buddha, Christ, The Dalai Lama, Black Elk... the list is long).
  4. Did I cause this? Can I control this? Can I cure this?
    • The answer is NO because you are not omnipotent. You cannot stop someone from dying; you cannot keep your spouse from being fired. But you CAN stay empowered, and that will make a difference. .... and if you find yourself arguing with this, go back to Question #1.
So lots of love and many blessings to you all, and let this be the Season of Joy and Celebration that is it. Crises do not have to take that away from you.

Gratefully in service to you all,

Caitlyn

Divine Birthrights: Authentic Desire


Some religions teach that desire causes suffering, because it creates unhappiness with where you are in the Here and Now. As usual, something a little less extreme is more accurate and definitely more useful for us to consider.

Emotions are the language of the Soul and are therefore one of our Divine Birthrights. The are a link to our Divinity. When we feel something, it is a communication frm our Higher Power/Higher Self/Christ Within (whatever you want to call it). Anxiety alerts us to the fact that something we are engaging in is harmful to us. Anger alerts us to boundary violations. Desire is also a communication on a Soul level. Authentic desire is one that that can be followed while maintaining full integrity, honesty and responsibility.

In my Energy Pattern Healing practice, I have found that the fire of authentic desire is very important because it is the impetus that moves us forward in our lives. Following our authentic desires leads us to make choices that result in our own happiness, so happiness is actually a function of authenic desire, rather than the absense of desire. Denying desire leads to the false humility. This false humility comes into play because the ego kicks in at the perception of having attained some sort of "special" status. I'm not talking about neglecting people and responsibilities to get your own way. The trick is to find a way to reach that which you desire while respecting the people who count on you. The two are compatible.

Try It
Were you raised with the idea that selflessness or servitude is Holy and Divine? What desires have you let go of in order to remain "socially acceptable"? Often, our heart's desire leads to being of service in new ways. Write down the ways in which you could better be of Service if you were aligned with your authentic desire. It helps to understand that when we are happy and joyful in whatever it is we are doing, we are anchoring Light to the World and creating a better place for everyone. How is the world deprived of a service if you don't act on your Authentic desire?

Wishing you clarity around your Authentic desires,
