"Help I'm Trapped in a Body
The Power of the Total Body Matrix
PREMISE:
We come fully loaded with not just one body, but
Four Bodies: that all-familiar Physical Body of hunger and thirst
as well as aches and pains; the Mental Body of our thoughts; the
Emotional or psychological Body of our feelings, and the Spiritual
Body, our connection with something that is larger than ourselves.
These Four Bodies are our essence; they are what we are made of
and totally describe us — our Total Body Matrix.
Central to learning how to remain healthy is an
intimate understanding of how each of our Four Bodies within our
personal matrix works and how each is affected by the others.
When we learn how to listen to our Four Bodies and are able understand
what each body is saying, we can use this information to make the
necessary changes that will allow us to consciously create a life
that is fulfilling, joyful, peaceful, and profoundly healthy.
When our Four Bodies are happily aligned, this balanced energy state
reflects out into the universe to help build a better world.
OVERVIEW:
We are a complicated building block of systems,
signals, and symbols. We think that if we cannot feel something
or see it or smell it or hear it or taste it, it must not be real.
We say that anything that is not tangible is not reality but there
are elements in our lives that we cannot detect with our senses
alone. We cannot sense carbon monoxide, until it is too late. We
cannot see radio waves. We cannot hear the high frequency communication
of elephants and whales. Yet we know they all exist. We now have
machines that can detect them, and we see the physical manifestation
of their existence. As science and human beings evolve, we are finding
new tools that allow us to “see” that which until now was “invisible”
and, therefore, by our earlier definitions, did not exist. So, the
line between real and unreal, what is and what is not reality, is
constantly shifting.
We can see our Physical Body but cannot sense
our Mental, Emotional, and Spiritual Bodies in the same way. Yet
we know we have thoughts. Even though we cannot see or touch our
thoughts, we know our minds are constantly at work. We know we have
feelings, and we see what happens when we are angry or happy or
stressed. Science is just beginning to recognize the energy
from these thoughts and feelings in our brains through MRI and PET
scans, while quantum physicists are starting to learn how to measure
and harness this energy. And while some of us may take it
as a matter of faith, many of us know there is a Spiritual world.
Like the author, some have had near- death or out-of-body experiences;
others have been “touched” by those who have passed from this world,
and there are those who have survived situations where only help
from “the other side” could explain what happened.
It is important for us to know that not only do
these Four Bodies exist, but that they are interconnected. One of
the Four Bodies cannot perform without affecting the other three.
We cannot have a thought that does not affect our Emotional system.
We cannot have a thought that does not affect our Physical Body
and, vice versa, we cannot have a muscle pain that does not involve
our thoughts and feelings. The same is true for the Spiritual
system. We are not just a Physical Body that needs tending.
We are a Physical-Emotional-Mental-Spiritual Body, a complex Matrix
that needs each part addressed in order for the whole self to be
safe. And in this safety, we become healthier, more energetic, and
more vibrant.
Our body’s communication system works very well.
It has important messages to give us if only we will listen. When
our Four Bodies are in harmony and flowing, in a state we call homeostasis,
it creates a positive effect on our entire system; even our immune
system changes.
By bringing the Four Bodies into this aligned
state, we create a sense of profound well- being and empowerment.
This sense of well-being radiates from our bodies and attracts a
life that is everything that we desire.
The Four Bodies are like the pistons in a car
engine. Each piston can function independently but with limited
effectiveness. When each piston works in sync with the others,
it provides an optimal vehicle. This is how the Four Bodies
system -- our Total Body Matrix -- works.
This book will put us in the driver’s seat of
our lives. We will have the full power of our Four Bodies
to co-create and have the life we’ve always wanted or dreamed of.
This information will help us realize how to take charge of our
creations and have fun while being fully responsible for our personal
outcomes.
This is the magic and the beauty of our Four Bodies,
our Total Body Matrix; however, this interrelationship goes even
further. There is also a Universal Matrix system. We learn that
what any one of us feels and/or experiences will have an impact
beyond ourselves, affecting others as well. We are all connected.
By addressing one’s Four Bodies, a person can open the natural flow
of energy by releasing blocks. This results in an enhanced sense
of freedom, creativity and joy that overflows into one’s community,
nation, and the world.
Help I’m Trapped in a Body! The Power
of the Total Body Matrix explores the complexity of our
Four Bodies and how they are deeply intertwined. To understand our
own unique Total Body Matrix we will first define and differentiate
each aspect. We will learn how to feel safe in all aspects
of our body — first in the Physical Body, then the Emotional Body,
the Mental Body, and the Spiritual Body — the Total Body Matrix
that leads us to the Universal. Each principle will be elucidated
by the author’s personal story as well as with case studies of individuals
whom the author has assisted through her practice.
