Holding Patterns

Have you ever felt like you were in a rut?  Does it seem like you keep making the same mistakes?  Does it seem like you’re spinning your wheels but you don’t seem to be moving?  And does it feel like you’re stuck?

Sometimes it seems like we get into an energy holding pattern.  I think of habits as stuck energy patterns.

If you’ve ever seen an LP on a turn table, you know that the needle follows a physical groove cut into the record, until it reaches the end.  The songs which were cut or pressed into the groove of the record, are the ones which will play back over and over again no matter how many times you play the record.  There is no “shuffle” on an LP, the same song or songs play in the same order as many times as you play that record.

Events can have a similar influence on your own energy field.  As you live your life, your energy field receives input from the world around you, just like a microphone or a recording device.  So your experiences literally leave an impression on you, first in your energy field, and then colored by your perception of the experience (much like special affects) they can become “recorded” or “programmed” into your tissues.  We’ve all heard the expression “It left an impression on me.”  That is exactly what happens.  An impression or record of your experience becomes a part of your energy signature and energy is what shapes the physical world.

A habit is a recurring pattern running through your life.  Take smoking for instance.  Sometimes people begin a habit by turning an activity into a ritual which they repeat.  I had a friend who began smoking because she was going through a very stressful period in her life.  She would only smoke when she was at home alone, and it became a ritual.  When she came home from work, she’d start in doing dishes and stand at the sink with the window open and the fan going and smoke one cigarette after another.  It was pretty much the only time she smoked.  But as long as she lived in that house, she engaged in that habit, because it had become a ritual.  When she moved, she decided she would not start up in the new house, and so she successfully quit.

But it isn’t that easy for some people.  Who knows why we take on addictive behavior.  Or why we may feel perpetually unlucky, or why we might always have relationship problems, or have a hard time finding a lasting job.  Who knows why those behavioral holding patterns run through our energy field, and why we dutifully play them out over and over.

Consider this:  Could it just be a holding pattern in your energy?  Something that seems to play out for you over and over?

And if that’s true, how do you change that?

This is a problem that I help people solve by identifying the underlying story to remove these energy holding patterns.

Restoring balance in this way, allows you to create a new experience for yourself.
