Rebirth

Written by Students & Staff
Spring is in the air!!! Birds are singing in the morning, trees are blooming, and my tulips are about to burst open. As the outdoors is coming alive spring is also a time for inner renewal. I had a most profound experience last week that I would like to share with you.
Last Monday we had our final ministerial class. One of the requirements was to create a ceremony to share with the class. I volunteered to be a mother welcoming her newborn child as a spirit into this world for Stacia’s ceremony. It was a beautiful, heartwarming ceremony and felt very healing (having given birth to my daughters Mara and Runa).
That evening, just as I was leaving my office, I experienced these incredibly strong cramps - it felt just like being in intense labor. They lasted a good half hour; I was sweating and in excruciating pain but just focused on breathing and grounding. After my female organs calmed down again I remembered the ceremony earlier that day.
That night I took a long, hot bath and crawled into bed. As I closed my eyes I saw myself like a newborn baby, lying on its side, feeling peaceful and calm. I dosed off into deep sleep. When I woke up I experienced a clarity of mind and ease in my body like never before – I felt reborn!!!
Everything has felt different since that night! I appreciate my gifts as a healer in this lifetime and enjoy sharing my gifts freely with people. I am able to trust the process of life with more ease, even in challenging situations (as there are plenty every day). I broke through a big wall of resistance!!! I will leave you with the words I came up with for our Service on Easter Sunday on the topic of “Rebirth”- my own version of the song “Hot Cross Buns”:
Open Your Heart
Set Yourself Free
Give Some Love, Receive Some Love
See The Truth
Ground Yourself
Set Your Soul Free
Give Some Love, Receive Some Love
You Are Reborn
Peace, Barbara
