Day 6 - The Path is Service

For many of us when we first begin to recognize our gifts, there's a honeymoon phase. The excitement of finally having language for what you have felt for so long.

There's relief of finding a community that understands. There's curiosity about what this might become.

That time is beautiful.

And as many of you may have already figured out - it is temporary

The reason is simple -- this path will ask more of you than any job or relationship you have ever had.

It will ask you to examine your own wounds before you touch anyone else's.

This path - It will ask you to be honest — brutally honest — about your motivations.

Are you here to help? Or are you here to be needed? Those are not the same thing.

It will ask you to maintain discipline

It will ask you to practice boundaries

It will ask you to stay grounded

In the curandero tradition I am trained in, there is an understanding that runs beneath everything: the healer is a vessel. Not the source. A vessel must be clean. A vessel must be cared for. A vessel must know its own limits.

Your job is to keep the channel clear. Your job is to keep the vessel clean, keep the vessel well tended and cared for. You must love the vessel

The work for Day 6 is an opportunity for you to stand inside these questions -

What is this discipline for me?

What boudnaries do I really need?

How do I stay grounded in the most trying of situations?

As you go through Day 6 and use the Sacred Affirmation and Sacred Practice - know that you are choosing something for you.

It requires courage. You can do this.
