Transformational tools assist us when we’re in the midst of inner healing. Inner healing work is painful in the beginning, but liberating and rewarding when a wounding weakness becomes our superpower strength—a trauma well served. Our willingness to heal personal trauma shifts us into spiritual and emotional maturity—personal accountability—that leads to self-honoring, self-respect, inner peacefulness, and joy.
While on our way toward claiming our superpower and spiritual maturity, we’ll have experiences that test us. We might have experiences with people who exhibit unreasonable, disrespectful behaviors. We might bristle inside and feel distressed. These experiences are nudges from our soul consciousness to help us understand if we’re willing to speak up for ourselves, create boundaries where necessary, no longer accept less than what we deserve, dissolve fears, and establish our values.
If you’re moving through the waters of personal transformation like so many of us are, I have a psychological and energetic tool for you to try that assists in shoring up a new and better you—The Exploding Rose technique.
Exploding Rose Technique
- Imagine a rose in front you serving as a buffer between you and the distressing situation or person(s).
- Pour all of your distressed feelings into this rose—frustration, anger, resentment, disappointment, sadness, despair, helplessness, powerlessness, etc.
- In your mind’s eye, imagine exploding the rose with a two-fold intention—to become aware of and to acknowledge your emotions and feelings, and to validate them rather than deny them. Then, imagine transmuting the rose, filled with your feelings, to Source as light and love.
- Discordant, distressing feelings dissolve. Your ability to feel centered, calm, and peaceful is restored if even temporarily. A more permanent state of peacefulness, non-resistance, and acceptance within your mind and heart may require deeper exploration, healing, and mediation. This technique sets a tone for acknowledging and releasing suppressed emotions and allows preferred emotions to take their rightful place in your heart, rippling to every cell in your body and energy field, creating a new state of being.
- When activating this technique, in your mind’s eye you might be able to see this rose exploding and see light flooding into your whole being. If you’re more of a feeler, you might feel an emotional shift from anger to neutrality. If you’re more sensation-oriented, you might physically feel your body’s tensions soften and melt.
Honoring Yourself
This technique summons your feelings of self-honoring and self-respect. When jolted or disappointed by the behavior of people, remain true, compassionate, and kind to yourself. Turn within and tune out the external noise. Connect quietly with your inner illumination, your True Self and connection to the Divine within you. Know and trust that a loving, exquisite intelligence is guiding your evolution into higher states of consciousness and personal growth.
On the other hand, if you become aware that you’re the person whose been behaving in ways that are unreasonable, unkind, uncooperative, and disrespectful of other people’s boundaries, perhaps this technique can serve as a wake-up call. Maybe it can assist you in dissolving insecurities and addressing personal, unconscious shadow projections with an opportunity to become more self-aware.
