Spiritual Healing: Stop the Drama

Years ago before cell phones, I would check my answering machine, hoping I would receive a call that would change my life: a job that would take me out of state, a friend calling to introduce me to an incredible man, etc.

Each time I would check my messages (several times a day) I would be disappointed that nothing big was waiting for me.

"If only...."  "When will ...." My happiness was in opportunities hands and opportunity was not knocking.

Today I woke in a foul mood- not sure why.  I did not work on myself and continued my day.  I went through the day being polite, carrying out my responsibilities.  But the universe found a way to accommodate my mood and gave me something to really be angry about.  

I went to a gathering at a friend's house.  I saw her immediately and I knew she was trouble.  I introduced myself.  But, I went beyond being social and tried to engage her.  I was like a moth to a flame.  I needed her. It was like I could not control myself.  My attention was on her above all others in the room.

In the end she was mean to me, I mean really mean. Mean like gym class in middle school. 

You can not escape your state.  Your state is mirrored.  There is no call coming in that will really change your life because your life comes from how you view life.

Next time you get into with someone ask yourself where you looking for trouble and the universe was just willing to accommodate?

Spiritual Healing from Drama

Our natural state is one of complete freedom.  Yet, many of us live as if we are trapped: trapped in a relationship, job or way of relating to the world.

How do you move from trapped to freedom?  Give up drama.  Most people do not relate to their challenges as the size they are. They over react: playing out scenario in their heads and ruminating about what might happen.  

Sometimes, I have clients track their drama in a Drama Log.  It is amazing what they find.  Many discover as one drama ends another gets ready to begin.  On Monday morning they get into a tiff with a coworker.  They fret about the coworker through the afternoon and into the next morning.  They worry and play out situations with what they should say and how they should respond.  On Tuesday the situation with the co-worker gets worked out.  They exhale and take a deep breath and feel peace.  Peace.  But wait, the next drama is getting ready to role in.  Their mother will call and badger them, their lover will not pay attention, etc.  Something always seems to show up to end the peace! 

What the Drama Log reveals more than anything is how clients make themselves crazy. Keeping the Drama Log trains clients to recognize their reactions as overreactions.  

How many dramas do you have in a month?  How long does the peace last?  Was your reaction to the drama accurate for the size of the problem or did you make a drama where none existed?
