On stoping spiritual practice
When the importance changes from what will I become to what will I do.
I had a therapist tell me to stop everything spiritual for four weeks, why because my development and what I had become would be more balanced if I had not sustained a trauma impact on the back of my head the treatment was to align some of the 64 energy centres of the brain which along with my spiritual and psychic development had caused not only my diagnosis of schizophrenia from 2001, but also I had many more visits to psychiatric hospital with big shifts in energy that could not flow through, this is because had I not hit the ceiling when I was being tossed in to the air by my father, he was making me chuckle as a baby.
my cousin also has schizophrenia and he says it was because he fell out of his mothers arms on to his head as a infant.
So what do you do when spirituality is your every thing and suddenly you’re told to take a step back or stop altogether? Well this is what I have prepared to do.
First be present and second be practical thus grounded, I have learned from a coaching psychologist that to him mindfulness means full mind the opposite to empty so this is where noticing every detail sight sound touch taste and so on become your occupation and practice.
practical pass times such as nature and house maintenance would be helpful perhaps puzzles like jigsaw’s and colouring books for example this is my strategy for the next four weeks.
It will be totally worth it as it means that my development emotional psychic spiritual energy body will stabilise, allowing me to become level headed and stay grounded this makes for a foundation for a very good future and the main aim is to develop a psychic switch this allows for the activation and deactivation of the five extra sensory faculties at my will when needed to help others and to firmly have one foot in the day to day world.
I’m on day two and it has been hard my whole life for 20 years and my identity has been centred around spiritual development and resolution of trauma I had no idea that an energy worker would be able to see into my energy body and soul to administer this treatment.
I feel truly blessed that this was possible I certainly don’t want to miss this opportunity to heal and take his prescription in totality very seriously, it seems like a sacrifice perhaps even humiliating but I alone am responsible for this lesson in healthy harmonious use of my gifts for the greater good.

I've gone through periods of stepping away from spiritual practices and just simplifying it greatly to meditation, breathwork and focusing on grounding. I found playing sport, walking dogs, doing normal muggle activities helped me enormously. It is hard as I feel like I'm betraying something, but the reality is if you want to function well in this world you need to be grounded and once you are grounded you can open to the practice again. In hindsight I studied reiki after my kundalini activation, in attempt to balance myself, as no one knew what was going on with me, and it was probably not the best idea. Level 1 was fine but level 2 really disrupted me and probably set me back a year or so, also I was carrying so much of other people's energetic junk, a healer advised me to stop doing reiki for a while and I've stopped entirely preferring to focus on other modalities....tune in and ask for guidance, if you feel you need to step back for a while, do it. I once received a message from my guides; others cannot stand on your shoulders if you can't stand on your own two feet.
