I spent the morning, yesterday, with Lovely Norma of Harp to Heart Healing, indulging in her monthly meditation class. Oh Wow. What a Blissful Experience!
Going to Norma’s is always like visiting an oasis of beauty, pampering and JOY. Even the drive there is a bit like that … the faeries are dancing in the trees and the magick has seeped from her house and garden, down the hill of her street and flows along the main road. It’s like the energy is calling to you as you drive to Norma’s home.
As we began the session, we slowed down thoughts, and our breathing, so that the only sounds which could be heard were Norma’s voice, the tinkling of the water fountain and the birds outside. I struggled with keeping tuned in for the first part of the meditation because my mind is very comfortable with chasing thoughts! The most interesting part of that experience was noticing that once I slowed down enough, all the thoughts which haven’t had a chance to ‘be heard’ flew in to my head! It reacquainted me with the realisation I’ve had before, which is that when I slow down, I am even more intuitive! In fact, I clearly remember receiving ideas about workshops for my Angel Business - which have now escaped me!
Being the Winter Solstice, we were encouraged to write ourselves a letter, talking about where we are at now or where we wanted to be in 6 months time. I wrote about where I was at that moment then scattered words/themes across the page and decorated them with coloured frames, like flowers, using pastels. It was fun! Norma asked us to address an envelope to ourselves then collected our letters and promised to post them to us at the Summer Solstice. It was a fabulous idea.
We then visited our Heart Space. Oh, dear. Mine was very sad. I have been very sad. My heart was black and crispy, and I was a little shocked. Initially, that scene was confronting but when I thought about how tired I am feeling and how much I desire a holiday, and the fact that Josh was mugged last week, I figured that my heart looked exactly like it was supposed to!
I had an explore around my Heart Garden and was taken in hand by my Guardian Angel. She showed me a ‘rock’ garden – kind of like some of those monolithic rocks you find in the bush. She showed me that when I rubbed hard on the ‘rock’ all the outside layers of mud and yuk came away. Underneath was a beautiful dark green jade crystal ~ a lot of dark green jade crystals! Oh, Wow!
As I turned around to look further around my Heart Garden, I saw the Sun. It was Bright and Huge and really, really present. It shone down through my garden, and my body, and my aura. It was all encompassing.
After our Visualisation, Norma asked us to draw or write about our experiences using our non-dominant hands. That is quite tricky! Even moreso was the effort I had to use by drawing with my left hand and using pastels! I am quite controlled in how I work creatively and given my very clear visualisation picture, I really wanted to capture that, accurately. Still, I honoured the process and drew the Blackened Heart, the blackened crystals and the Sun. The Sun was really easy to draw and just flowed ~ I really noticed that it was significantly easier than the other aspects of my drawing.
Norma explained to us, afterwards, that this process was all about connecting with our inner child. I saw clearly that the ‘stuff’ which has been bogging me down, recently, was the hard-to-draw part of the picture, and the part that was really easy was the Sun, the Light, which is always there and always has been. I guess it’s a bit hard to describe so others can actually understand clearly, but it was really significant to me.
We finished up with another meditation which involved our ‘path’ and where we were going with our journeys … I was already pretty familiar with mine so it was a nice indulgence. An even nicer indulgence was listening to Norma playing the Harp ~ Oh, WOW! Sheer Bliss!
Our discussion process involved sharing our experiences and observations, taking some Mini Angel Cards ~ mine were “Expectancy” and “Truth” ~ and partaking in tea and biscuits (heart shaped, of course!).
I left Norma’s feeling how I feel after an hour’s massage, even similar to how I feel after a week’s sailing! It was Wonderful! I am certainly going to book in for a monthly indulgence. Thank you, Norma!!
