When I have a lot on my mind there are only a couple things that truly help me regain some focus and grounding. My mind is so overly active that I can literally have several thoughts going on at the same time and many of them are exceptionally intrusive and stem from the completely nonsensical to very emotionally charged times in my life. While I use a great deal of powerful energy to align and remove and keep certain entities at bay, this isn't always most effective. Shielding work, psychic communication, energy repair and reconnection (and disconnection in some cases) takes a great deal out of me and I don't always see the results as quickly as I need them to take effect. The following are a few methods I use for immediate release from being overburdened by an overactive mind.

Focusing on work helps. I am fortunate that I work from home most of the time and can immerse myself in work that pulls from the creative aspects of my mind which momentarily quiets the 'voices in my head.' Art has been a huge part of my life since very early childhood. Recently, after an emotional trauma, I've begun to get back in touch with my artistic talents and visually expressive self. I have a website of my photography which is digitally manipulated and shows a little bit of my creative side at feelsuite.com and I plan to upload some of my artworks done by hand on there soon. While being creative is helpful, there are times when I am so 'in the zone' while I'm doing my art that my mind uses the completely smooth lines of energy to, once again, wander anew. I have to be very careful to keep the balance.

Music helps also. When I play or sing powerful songs, I can take my mind elsewhere and it's as if the 'voices' tend to enjoy the respite with some groovin'. When there's no music readily available, I think of a song and either sing it in my head or begin to hum or sing out loud. Not only does my mind become soothed but I become better focused on the present moment.

Watching an intellectually stimulating movie is another way to focus on the present and analyze something other than the millions of moments that make up my past. This is usually one I resort to when my brain or creativity is just not in the mood to flourish at a particular time.

Dancing is the only effective method of meditation for me. I cannot meditate when I am still (although I am working on this.) My body, like my mind, needs to be in motion in order for the two to align. Dancing to trance / techno / industrial music stimulates my entire body and gets immense energy flowing through me and I feel the Universe circulating through my Soul as If were dancing with me.

I have received such a warm welcome here and I am thankful to each of you who have reached out to me. May you have a pleasant and peaceful evening.
