Crystals for Protection
“Insight into my familiar,
enfolds me in my fearless nature.
Faith, security, protection,
fill my heart with trust, reflected.
That I’m deeply sound, connected,
guided safely and protected.”
Protection looks at our core feeling of fear, anxiety and lack of security. Letting go. By giving this fear up to the Universe to handle, you are allowing yourself to release this fear, and strip away any kind of meaning or significance it may have upon you. By letting go, this allows us to move to the next level in our lives. Protection always comes by letting go of the fear.
How To Create Protection
Without a doubt, there are situations in our lives that cause anxiety. This is something we must "pick apart" in order to find it's roots. There may be one or two things that are not allowing your mind to be free. Write them down.
Look at them on paper. Send them to me if you like (we can look at them together). Be honest with yourself when you write them out. Go with your immediate intuition. Fears have a tendency to dissolve when we are looking them face on.
Re-balance. As a holistic individual, you know that our bodies are continuously in a state of re-balancing itself. This is how we function. This is how we grow. By holding on to a fear, we are not allowing this processes (your intuitive state) to flow freely. This block can be the cause of a much bigger problem.
Letting go. By giving this fear up to the universe to handle, you are essentially allowing yourself to release this fear, and in turn strip away any kind of meaning or significance it may have upon you. By letting go, this allows us to move to the next level in our lives. The next natural process. Often times, this is a fear in itself.
The fear of "what will happen when I DO move to my next stage in life?" Let your guard down. Let it go. This is not a fear. This is a great journey. Allow yourself to follow it.
"The best protection any woman can have . . . is courage." - Elizabeth Cady Stanton
