AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

My in-laws have strong opinions and a dominant voice. At times, their energy impacts me deeply. How can I stop being affected by them so much? Right now, we are living away from them due to work. But in the future, if we have to live together, it scares me😱. In their presence, I feel there is no room for self-expression or choice. [conti]

I notice my creative energy drops and I shift into a state of self-protection.

How can I stay connected to my creative power and truth, even in environments where I feel suppressed or unsafe?

Practice inwardness and be an impartial indifferent witness to all that is going on within and outside. Practice equanimity and most important of all, inner remembrance of the Divine Mother. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

I have always had a low level of attachment to my physical existence. I “float” and experience most physical phenomena in a supervisory/vicarious way unless I am very intentionally grounding myself. Is there a name/word for this? 🧘🌿[…]

Dissociative episode is simply a term that explains nothing. There are other terms that equally do not help us. Some people simply have a poor connection with the physical body because the bridges and the subtle links between their subtle body and the physical is not completely built.
