A few months back I was visiting a friend, Miran, I had know her for many years on and off. She is a firm believer in holistic living both for the mind and body and by that I mean she eats healthy, exercises, does yoga, meditates, works hard and is a very polite and kind person and I would say practices these virtues. She is a single parent too.
Miran also had two girls right about the age of Roxy and Romy. And of course the conversation always drifts to what the girls are up to. At the time, I had been having these constant conflicts with Roxy over practically everything no matter how hard I tried; she didn't like the clothes I got her, didn't like the way I made her hair, didn't like the food, didn't like doing anything I would suggest. Rox got into the mode of starting to believe that Mamma was mean to her and didn't like her..... I was telling Miran about this and she said she also went through a tough patch with her elder one on things like this.
I asked her how it was going now and she said its gotten much better. I asked her how she got to that point, did it just run its course or did she change the way she was behaving or changed her attitude on things... and then she asked me to try this:
Sit in a quite place
Come to peace with yourself, that is calm down and just gather yourself and try to feel the peace
Close your eyes
Call out to speak to your daughter's higher self
Talk about all the things you love about her
Talk about all the things that make you mad that she does
Then ask for her forgiveness for the things that you may have done to make her mad in this life and the past life
After that also say that you forgive her for the things that have knowingly or unknowingly happened
And come to peace with who you are and who she is.....
I actually did this exercise a couple of times, there was nothing to loose I figured.
Interestingly enough, I have to say the past few months have been quite smooth..... may be this method taught me to lay out what is actually bothering me and how to be at peace with all that.... or may be Miran knows a thing or two about holistic living :)
In any case, I am quite happy the way things are right now and would like to keep it that way,
so the divine in me bows to the divine in you.......
