Solutions for Ascension Symptoms

After several years on the Ascension Path, I have come to realize
that ascending doesnâ?Tt come without a price. Achieving a higher level of
consciousness isnâ?Tt accomplished by osmosis; it requires commitment, diligence and
sacrifice. Still, I feel the rewards of ascension far outweigh the pain of
getting there. There have been times when I questioned my sanity as I walked
this path, having to confront my fears at every turn. I have lost many friends,
walked away from lucrative business deals and suffered the heartache of intense
loneliness yet none of those compared to the devastation I felt by losing my
health. I have always believed that as long as I had my health, I could
handle anything.  Unfortunately, we were not left a manual on how to ascend,
detailing the pros and cons and explaining the steps. As a result, many of us,
myself included, find ourselves stunned and confused by the degree of physical and
emotional pain we experience in ascension, not understanding how or why it is
a part of the process, nor how to regain our health so that we can keep going
forward. This article is my attempt to provide answers as to why our health
is affected during ascension along with some solutions for regaining our
health.  I consciously began the ascension process in early 1996. At that time I
asked my guides to, â?ohelp me regain my abilities to hear, see and feel on other
dimensions like I used to.� Within hours my request was granted and I began
the first of many emotional clearings necessary to achieve my goal. What I
mean by emotional clearing is clearing out the old, stuck lower frequency
emotions such as anger, rage, shame, guilt, regret, remorse and bitterness that are
part of ancient memories and wounds. These traumas are held together in
layered blocks that resemble an onion. Also included in these blocks are the
beliefs and behavior patterns from which the traumas were created. As we clear each
layer of these blocks from the emotional body, the physical body then releases
its equivalent of that layer. We call this process, Emotional
Clearing. Ascension as I understand it is about moving oneâ?Ts state of consciousness from one
reality to another. Since a reality is a dimension what we are undertaking
is, in essence, a dimensional shift. To make this shift one must change oneâ?Ts
way of thinking and being. Bringing this back to the personal level, in order
to shift my thinking and ways of being, I must become aware of what beliefs and
behaviors are out of balance and take appropriate steps to balance them. As
I have learned, we wonâ?Tt be doing this totally alone. The Soul/Higher Self and
the Inner Child work with us as partners in this process. They bring our
fears, beliefs and patterns to the surface through events that trigger them into
our awareness so that we can consciously acknowledge and clear them. By
repeating this process over and over we clear our emotional bodies of the long held
traumas, beliefs, and fears. As I mentioned earlier, once the emotional body
dumps, the physical body then dumps its equivalent of that block. All this
happens simultaneously with each clearing. Oh, and along with these benefits,
the clearing recodes our DNA so it can hold more light thus changing it to a
crystalline state. Our DNA sustains our new state of consciousness.  So
emotional clearing is the process we go through to ascend. At the time I began back
in 1996 I had no idea that emotional clearing would be required to ascend. I
had not even heard of the process before I began to experience it. Perhaps
that was a good thing because had I known what it would take, I might not have
begun. During those six years I experienced many of the classicascension
symptoms. These include persistent fatigue, migraine headaches, muscle and joint
pain, stiff neck and shoulders, rapid weight gain, memory loss, difficulties
with sleep and concentration (foggy headedness), sore throat, blurred vision,
irritable bowels and bladder, low-grade fevers and depression. Through the
hundreds of comments I received from readers of my ascensionarticles, I learned
that others were experiencing part or all of the same symptoms in varying
degrees and combinations as myself. Though I was surprised, I was also comforted by
the fact that I wasnâ?Tt alone in my experiences. I began to wonder if there
was a term for these symptoms and started research to find out why we were
paying such a high price for ascension.

[Lunaria]

I turned up two recently discovered
illnesses. They are called Fibromyalgia (FM) and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS)�and
they exactly matched the symptoms of ascension! And, both had only been â?o
discovered� in the last 10 years. I discovered that the endocrine system not
only gives you your psychic abilities, it also regulates the production of
hormones in your system and hormones regulate just about every function in your body
including your emotions, weight, body temperature, libido, mental acuity,
concentration, sight, etc. Hormones tell the other cells of the body what to do.
If some hormones are deficient, the cells that rely on them donâ?Tt function
properly.  Based on this information, I began to wonder if emotional clearing
was in someway connected to FM and CFS. During emotional clearing the
endocrine glands (hypothalamus, pituitary, pineal, adrenals and gonads) are greatly
stressed through the triggering of deep-seated fearsand repressed memories.Â
When we experience emotional or physical stress our hormone production becomes
erratic. When this occurs on a continuous basis as with emotional clearing,
some hormones are nearly wiped out and others are over produced and we experience
the corresponding symptoms, i.e., weight gain, aching joints and muscles,
short-term memory loss, persistent fatigue, low-grade fevers, word searching,
etc. In other words we develop FM and/or CFS or develop the same symptoms.Â
 Personally, I found it hard to accept that I would develop these illnesses since
I was clearing out the old energies and integrating the fears that I believed
caused dis-eases (I had long ago come to the conclusion that the root of
physical dis-ease lay in the emotional body). I believed correctly or incorrectly
that spiritual people were happier and healthier than non-spiritual people
therefore, since I was becoming more spiritual, I should experience greater
health and happiness.  It made me question whether I was really becoming more
spiritual or not. I apparently overlooked the fact that when one seeks to move
from one state to another, there is a period of imbalance, chaos and adjustment
before a new state of balance is achieved. Though this was a frightening and
disheartening discovery, at the same time, it was a relief to finally
understand what was happening to me. I had felt out of control for so long by the
debilitating nature of these symptoms. Now, with finally understanding the big
picture of the Ascension Process, I felt in control of my life again. So how
does it happen? How does emotional clearing lead to FM or CFS? And more
importantly, what can be done to heal our bodies of these illnesses? Â Why
do some of us get CFS and/or FM and whatâ?Ts the Value?

Because not everyone who goes through emotional clearing and ascension will
develop FM or CFS, itâ?Ts my belief that those who do attract these illnesses do
so because they need the kind of assistance these illnesses provide. Let me
explain.  A couple of years ago, my guides informed me that there would be new
viruses upon the planet that would be incurable by 3D methods because they
were designed for a higher purpose. They informed me that these viruses were
created to literally burn patterns out of the DNA. Now, there is a scientific
law called the â?oLaw of Dissipating Structuresâ? which states that before a new
structure can be established the old one must dissipate or dissolve. It is my
belief that behavior patterns are genetically encoded in our DNA. They are
passed down from generation to generation and originally created by our belief
systems. Â If CFS and FM are those viruses, then they could assist people with
this pattern by burning it out of their DNA. So those who attract CFS or FM
do so to obtain the assistance they need to clear stubborn, deeply entrenched
patterns in their DNA. Going further, since these viruses are neuromuscularly
related (they attack the muscles), they force you to slow down, take stock of
your life and change your beliefs about yourself and what is really
important. They force you to change your priorities, thus giving you the help you need
to bring your life into balance. For example, I was one of those people who
defined myself by what I did for a living. I also had a deep need to accomplish
along with a fear of asking for help. Because of these viruses, I was forced
to reevaluate my belief of defining myself by my career as I moved from a
very acceptable 3D career into psychic/intuitive counseling. I could no longer
expend the energy working in a field that I had lost my passion for long
ago.  Because of the debilitating fatigue, I couldnâ?Tt accomplish much each dayand my
self-worth and self-esteem plummeted to an all-time low. This forced me to
reevaluate my beliefs around accomplishment and why I needed it so much.Â
Because I could not work as much, I wasnâ?Tt bringing in the amount of money I needed
to pay the bills. This forced me to confront my fears about asking for
help. I learned that my symptoms were exacerbated by anxiety when I became fearful
about not having the money needed to pay the bills. I learned to stay open
andallow my guides to assist me and as I did this, the money came each month.

I
now realize that without these viruses I would not have changed my deeply
entrenched beliefs and patterns because I wouldnâ?Tt have unless I was forced to do
so. So perhaps CFS and FM were my saving grace. Perhaps they are the â?obig
guns� some of us call in to help us clear patterns that would otherwise block us
from ascending. Solutions

Over the years I have tried many things to alleviate my symptoms including,
cutting out sugar, wheatand dairy products in my diet, eating organic foods,
salt baths, Essential Oils, Bach Flower Essences, massage, chiropractic, and
yoga. All of them helped but none of them could give me back my life. It wasnâ?Tt
until my emergency hysterectomy that I discovered a therapy that alleviated
the majority my symptoms and gave me back my life. It is called Natural Hormone
Replacement Therapy (NHRT). Now, Iâ?Tm not talking about synthetic hormones
made from the urine of mares, I am talking about natural, plant-based hormones.Â
In laymenâ?Ts terms, NHRT supplements the hormones in our body, giving our
endocrine system time to regulate itself and begin producing the right amounts and
levels of hormones.  I have been taking natural hormones for 9 months now and
have experienced an 85% improvement in my FM and CFS symptoms. For example,
I can exercise 40 minutes 4 days a week now. Before, I would try to exercise
but each time I would pull a muscle or something else would happen to prohibit
my continuing the exercise. Â I tried dieting and no matter how much I dieted
or tried to exercise, the weight would not come off! I have lost several
inches, dropping from a size 12 to a size 8 on my way back to a size 6. Whata
relief!  Bowel movements are back to normal most of the time now and I have a
lot more energy. I can remember things better now because my short-term memory
is returning. I only experience symptom flare-ups when I overexert myself or
become anxious and fearful.  My husband Jonathan has been on NHRT for 5 months
and has experienced abouta 15% improvement in his symptoms, not as dramatic
an improvement as mine. I have noticed a decrease in his chronic depression
from 6 out of every 7 days to 2 out of every 7 days. When you live with someone
who is chronically depressed this is tremendous improvement. I have noticed
that he doesnâ?Tt have the anxiety attacksas often as before and he has a bit
more energy. Considering that he was diagnosed with CFS in 1996 and has gone 5
years without treatment, this is a great improvement.  Another godsend was
NeuroCranial Restructuring (NCR). NCR has a good track record of eliminating
illnesses including FM and CFS because both are neuromuscular relatedand because
it works on the sphenoid bone, the pivotal bone in the body. Your head sits
upon your neck balanced on this bone like a bowling ball balanced on a pool
stick. When this bone is out of alignment it causes all the other bones in the
body to shift/misalign in order to stabilize your head. After only 4 treatments
I experienced an increase in mental clarity,and a pronounced decrease in
neck/upper back pain and muscle spasms. My neck was straighterand I attained
significantly more flexibility in my lower and middle back because it straightened
my spine a bit. Â I have had mild scoliosis (curvature of the spine) since
birth. Iâ?Tve also had several whiplashes. The NCR treatments helped move my head
back into alignment on my neck and took the pressure off my muscles so that
bones could support my head instead of my muscles, allowing my spine to begin
unwinding. I also noticed things were visually lighter. It was like coming out
of the shadows into the sunlight. Many NCR patients report these kinds of
improvements. I plan to continue these treatments to complete the straightening
of my spine and repair the damage caused by whiplash. Jonathan also had 4
treatments and his sleep apnea decreased by 85%. He is not able to verify this
since he doesnâ?Tt hear himself gasping for breath at night, but I do. His
breathing is much deeper. I have kept a record of his emotional state since the NCR
treatmentsand have noticed that he is in a relatively good mood 3 out of every
5 days. Before the NCR it was 1 out of every 5 days.  It appears that we
attract solutions to our symptoms and are guided to those practitioners and
therapies that complete the healing process as we clear the associating beliefs and
patterns. So there is relief for our ascension symptoms. I am not saying
these are the only therapies that will work and everyone will experience
different levels of relief if they use them, but they are two that worked well for
me.  In closing, it is my hope that everyone who reads this article will
understand that physical symptoms are part of the process of emotional clearing and
ascension. To think we can clear and clean our emotional and physical bodies
without experiencing pain and discomfort is unrealistic. But our symptoms are
by no means perpetual and based on my experience and research, can be
alleviated, and will eventually be eliminated as we complete ascension. Below are
links to sites for information on FM, CFS, NHRT and NCR. And there are many more
on the Internet as well as some very good books on these subjects. In service,
