Peak 55: I am playing Sacred Say/Do/Be

Thank you for the Sacred Say/Do Game! I loved it. It made me so much more respectful towards the task-in-time I was undertaking at any one moment. Like my morning walk: when I reminded myself this was sacred, and pulled the ceremonial bell rope, I felt inclined to walk more slowly, more deliberately… Awareness of the sacred has the potential to slow us right down. And it also has the potential to waken us right up! Like singing in our gospel concert yesterday: throwing myself in to the sacredness of the songs and the connection with the audience and with my fellow singers, brought me in to a state of almost fervent awakenedness!

And using my Day Book across the day to note down and acknowledge the beginning and ends of tasks-in-time, with a ceremonial bell rope pull to the heavens, was really anchoring. The Sacred Say/Do Game is just what I need – I’ll do more of it.

Also, I have to say, my Physical Fitness First goal for Q3 established a week or so ago seems to be making a shift. Fitness First activities this past week included:

  • Daily 45m forest walks, listening to this amazing audiobook, Medical Medium
  • Following MEDSAN each morning – gently, patiently
  • Taking early nights much more seriously (ie. get ready for bed at 9pm for 10pm lights out – achieved 2/3 times) – I think I’ve hit a 7 hours average this week for the first time in maybe a year…
  • Starting to apply the Medical Medium healing foods/supps protocols: Virtually Vegan, Grazing Green
  • Playing the Sacred Say/Do Game to pace myself, and get stuff done
  • Resting when needed, to boost my immune system and organ healing
  • Starting to tell clients I only work afternoons, to create some boundaries and space for self-care

Next, to keep this up, and remember how to come back to it after my amazing week or two away from tomorrow. And, tomorrow…

I am astonishingly blessed to be called upon to be birth partner to my sister and her husband. And tomorrow I go to London to join them.

Help me prepare psychologically, spiritually and emotionally, for this sacred experience ahead, dear voice of my Being. Show me how to be present with all of my heart, spirit and soul. Thank you.

Time to meditate, dear friend of the Earth…

What stood out for you, dear one? 

Actually, it was the moment she brought our attention to the feeling of humming electricity in our hands, and reminded us that this was Source within us. I’ve been wondering how to be up to the task of supporting my beautiful sister (S) during her birth, and how not to be in the way, or not to be distracting from her wonderful husband’s (N) role. I’d seen myself staying in the background, ‘in case needed’. But actually, I’m reminded now that S loves the touch of ‘healing hands’. Maybe I can bring my touch, and my reassuring words. I don’t need to be an expert on birth. But I can be an ‘expert’ on my love for my sister, and the knowledge that she loves to have loving, healing touch. So less thinking, more being present with touch and word. Yes, I can do that.

Is that about right? What else should I know.

Yesterday you anchored the Sacred in to your tasks-in-time, to increase your executive functioning while calling on assistance too, with your tugging on the bell rope to the Sacred. Today, a whole afternoon of Movements to Music, is the perfect moment to incorporate Sacred ‘Being’ into your repertoire. Sacred Say/Do/Be is the perfect mix for your today. 

Sacred Say: stating an intention, and tugging on the bell rope of the Sacred for assistance, noting your appreciation, fomenting wonder.

Sacred Do: actioning your intention, leaning on the Sacred, making space for assistance. 

Sacred Be: reflecting upon all that has been said and done, and resting in the peace of having collaborated with the Sacred. Allowing the experience of co-production to settle into the knowing. Marking. Acknowledging. Appreciating.

How do I ensure I am not ‘Doing’ when I think I am ‘Being’?

Doing: external activity in the seen world, executive functioning, performance.

Being: internal reflection. Going inward. Connecting with that intrinsic self. 

You can easily practice going from one state to the next in Movements, at the moment of ‘Rest’. Practise Sacred Being – the state of ‘No-Do’. 

Do/Be/Do/Be…

I feel a song coming on…

Do/Be/Do/Be… Feel the difference between the two states. Bring consciousness to this knowing. Why? As you get to recognise the different states, ‘Doing’ (executive functioning) will get easier, as you will be reminded that the Doing is temporary, and rewarded with periods of restful Sacred Being. 

So today, I am playing the Sacred Being Game?

Yes. You can still play Sacred Say/Do – but it’s really Sacred Say/Do/Be all together. 

Ok, then let’s call it that. Three different states. I like it.

Tug on the bell rope to mark the transitions, and keep invoking the Presence of your loving attendants. 

Ok. I will do this. Ty.
