Take a slow inhale through the nose… hold for a gentle beat… and exhale like you’re letting a heavy coat slide off your shoulders. Now imagine soft morning light touching the edge of a dark room—nothing forced, just a steady light with warmth returning. — Grief is love with nowhere to land. But you can give it a home, here is how… If you’re in grief right now, let me say this plainly: you are not “broken.” You are adjusting to a loss and a new reality while still loving the old one. In metaphysical terms, grief is a kind of energy—dense, sacred, and honest. It’s love moving through a nervous system that’s overwhelmed. Your job isn’t to “get rid of it.” Your job is to help it move. Here’s a gentle way to shift, even 1% today: 1. Name the wave (don’t become it). Say: “Grief is here.” Not “I am grief.” That tiny language shift creates space between your awareness and your pain (Eckhart Tolle calls this the power of presence). 2. Give grief a container. Set a 10-minute timer. Let grief speak—journal, cry, pray, shake out your hands. When the timer ends, put a hand on your heart and say: “Thank you. I’ll return later.” This teaches your system: “I can feel this without drowning in it.” 3. Move the energy out of the body. Grief pools when we freeze. Try this 90-second reset: • Inhale 4 seconds • Exhale 6 seconds • While exhaling, gently press your feet into the floor Do 6 rounds. Darkness loosens when the body remembers safety. 4. Speak to the love underneath. Ask: “What is the love in this grief trying to protect?” That question turns suffering into meaning—and meaning is medicine. 5. One “living thread” a day. Text someone. Sit in sunlight. Walk around the block. Drink water slowly. Grief often lifts through tiny proofs that life is still here—and you’re still in it. JOURNAL THIS… If you want, drop one word for what your grief feels like today (e.g., heavy, numb, restless). Make sure you breathe. Tell your feelings to your Journal. MOVING FORWARD You don’t have to be “over it” to be moving forward. You just have to keep choosing the next gentle breath.

Acknowledging Where You Are It feels like your energy may be unsettled or dispersed today—perhaps pulled outward by your thoughts, responsibilities, or emotional noise. That’s not a flaw; it’s a signal. As Eckhart Tolle reminds us, “The body always lives in the present moment.” When we return to it, we return to Now. Gently Exploring the Trigger Often when our energy feels ungrounded, we’ve been living slightly ahead of ourselves—in anticipation, worry, or mental overdrive. Or we’ve given our attention away without replenishing it. Nothing to fix—just something to notice. Reflective Insight Grounding isn’t about forcing stillness; it’s about allowing gravity to love on YOU. Wayne Dyer spoke of choosing inner alignment over outer societal control—this is one of those moments. You don’t need to rise higher today; you need to settle and go deeper. Simple Grounding Practice (5 minutes) 1. Sit or stand with your spine relaxed, not rigid. 2. Place one hand on your lower belly, one on your heart. 3. Breathe slowly and say silently on the exhale: “I am here.” 4. Imagine roots growing from your feet, anchoring you gently into the earth. 5. When thoughts arise, let them pass like clouds—no engagement, no resistance. If you like, afterward drink a glass of water slowly, mindfully—hydration is a physical act of grounding. A Small Daily Anchor Today, pause once every few hours and feel your feet—inside your shoes, against the floor. Just 10 seconds. This trains your nervous system to stop drifting and come home to the Present Moment. Closing Metaphysics Blessing May the earth steady you, May your breath remember its rhythm, May your energy settle like soft rain into fertile soil. You are held. You are present. You are enough—right here, right now.

In Metaphysics, you will find that it always points us back to what the Truth is in Reality, not what you imagined or perceived. You have to go to the Present Moment. How to move forward totally depends on your Core Principles which is the backbone of your Belief System. Your Belief System includes your values, morals, religion and cultural beliefs. A Belief System has to be developed by you and only you! It is the system you choose to live your life by. Make sure you Journal your thoughts and feelings, so you can review them if necessary. It is important for you to create your Belief System and list your Core Principles. How to Extract Core Principles from Lived Experience For each meaningful experience you have had, complete this sentence: “Because I lived through ___, I now believe ___, so I act by ___.“ A true core principle has three parts: 1. Source (experience) 2. Belief (what you learned) 3. Behavior (how it shows up) If it doesn’t change how you act, it’s an opinion—not a principle. Example Core Principles (Lived, Not from Expertise)…. Use these as Mirrors, not Templates… Clarity beats certainty I learned that waiting to feel sure kept me stuck; acting once things were clear enough moved my life forward. Patterns matter more than intentions People—including me—reveal truth through repetition, not promises. Boundaries teach people how to treat you Explaining myself didn’t change outcomes; enforcing limits did. Discomfort is often a compass, not a warning sign Growth felt unsafe before it felt right. Energy is evidence Where my energy drains consistently, something is misaligned—even if it “looks good” on paper. A Short Exercise (10 minutes) List 5 moments that changed how you operate from day to day (not how your thinking) For each, write the sentence: Because I lived through ___, I now believe ___, so I ___. Circle the statements that: Guide decisions Show up under pressure Cost you something to follow Those are your real principles.

In Metaphysics, it is important to know that the theory says that it is important to always stay with the reality. That is why you have to retrain your brain because now we want to stay focused on the Present moment. Keep in mind that Metaphysics also points out you cannot change the past or predict the future, like your Ego would make you believe. The Present Moment is all we have....truth be told. The Ego is always competitive and in survival mode on your behalf. Sooo... it is important to zoom in on signals like Insecurity. When Insecurity strikes, It can feel like your chest tightens, your thoughts sharpen, and suddenly you’re measuring yourself against an invisible standard. Take one slow breath with me first—so we’re working with your whole system, not just your mind. Inhale 4… hold 2… exhale 8…Again: inhale 4… hold 2...exhale 8… and soften your jaw. What insecurity is often beneath the surface? Emotion: entangled insecurity (tender, self-protective). Possible trigger: a moment where you felt seen, evaluated, compared, excluded, rejected or uncertain about your place in Society. Reflective insight: insecurity is often an old protector—a part of you trying to prevent rejection by scanning for what’s “wrong.” When we look thru the theory of John Bradshaw’s lens: shame says, “I am the problem. ”But the truth is: you’re having a shame-flavored feeling.... not discovering your worth. Eckhart Tolle’s theory lens: the “ego” compares to feel safe. It’s a survival habit. When you are aware and notice it, you begin to loosen its grip. A quick practice to soothe insecurity (3 minutes) 1) Hand-to-heart validation (45 seconds) Hand on chest. Feel warmth. Say slowly (even silently): - “Of course, I feel insecure right now.” - “This is a human feeling.” - “I can be with this feeling without believing everything it says.” Let your exhale be long. 2) Locate it in your body (45 seconds) Ask: Where do I feel insecurity? (throat, stomach, chest?)Put your attention there like you’re placing a warm blanket on it. Breathe into that spot with 3 slow breaths.
