PSA from the Animals: Tips to be a better roommate during Quarantine April 2020

During great pause that we are all experiencing comes with so many lessons and often the animals are the messengers.  The animals are masters at reading energy, intention and attention for they are present  and in their bodies 24/7 and tuned in to the overall energy field. The general theme that is being delivered by the animals  for April  is about practicing Basic Energetic Hygiene.   The messages are being delivered through the lens of tough love and asking you to up your game.    Below is a PSA from the animals:

Hello my dear person, 
 
Please wake up and start taking responsibility for what you are doing with your attention and your energy. Clean up your act and stop being a sloppy energetic roommate who is leaving your frustrations, angst and emotions all over the place.  In the past I was able to hold space for you when you came home from work and that was okay because I could help reorient you and then we would go move together or snuggle. But now it's like a roller coaster and you are off gassing all sorts of energy everywhere and it is piling up.   

I am curious why are you so afraid of just feeling what’s going on with you and allowing it to ripple through you.  Grieve, scream, cry, yell if you have to. By allowing the emotion to be energy in motion and expressing itself it will move  through your body. Instead of when you go into a tantrum or spin out in a story and energy and emotions start flying and landing all over the place that sit like piles of poo or energetic hot spots all over the house.  Hey,  I use the litter box or go outside to do my business.   I am asking you to be responsible and  mindful where you leave your poop piles and pick them up and throw them away. 

Also I implore you to come up with some clearing practice to  clear out the energy that comes flooding into the space from Zoom and other devices.  After your meetings on the computer, energetically  it's  like all those people are in the house lingering around . And to top it off its like you left the building because you are not in your body - all your energy is in your head.  Please do something to get back in your body and  create a routine to clear out the energy. 

I suggest you literally stand up and walk these people out the door.  Then turn your attention to reorienting to being in your body before engaging in this thing you call work. For example, I shake off energy after playing with another dog.  Or you may notice that I groom myself immediately after being petted. This is to rid myself of your scent and smooth my coat back to the way I like it.

Perhaps you could wash your hands or go outside and feel your feet on the earth and notice what you hear or see - be present to where you are right now.

It seems you are not leaving any time soon and by taking responsibility for your energy and being mindful will help the flow in the house.  I do enjoy having you around.  And I am asking you to clean up your act so I can get back to relaxing.  Energy flows where intention and attention goes.

Thank you for reading this and putting some of my suggestions into practice.
​
I love you!
