I don’t feel quite ready to write a blog for this week, as I feel as though I am stuck, bouncing from pillar to post in a word of wonder. I want some more time to research and wonder and ponder. I’m caught in the realisation that up until this point in my life, I had no idea of the power of the Solar Plexus but more than that I had no idea that it was a physical thing that exists in the body. It’s so weird to me.

Years Of Not Knowing

When I did yoga for years we would focus on the Solar Plexus often placing hands on the area of the body to feel or direct the energy. In drama at Uni we would do the same. I went on to drama school and again we would focus energy from the Solar Plexus and yet no one every said it was an actual thing in the body.

Finally I trained as a hands on therapist, using techniques to assist the body to heal itself and I was still unaware that the solar plexus is a real, actual tangible body part. I always just thought it was energy – I mean yeah that’s right in part.

I Would Have Been More Intentional

I’m not entirely sure why this new revelation is making me feel as though I have been shaken to my core. It’s strange I feel off balance, like something has been hidden from me in plain sight. I guess perhaps it is because I previously felt that the energy was only there when I was giving focus to my Solar Plexus but now I know that it has always been there, actively shining my light but I was unaware of it’s physical existence and therefore it’s worth.

I also I feel like perhaps I should have also protected it more. I don’t know how because I have never looked into it but I’m sure I initially said that I’m a super nerd, so had I known I had a Solar Plexus there to protect, I would have found out how. What foods to eat, what vitamins to take, what exercises to do. I probably would have even named her (in fact I totally will) so that we can go out into the world together shining our light to all we meet.

So Much To Discover

It’s not that we haven’t been shining our light but somehow now it feels more real. Not that I believe the only things that are real are the things that we can see hear taste touch and feel. It’s something quite unexplainable but it’s as though I now feel like I am whole. Well until the next thing that comes along to make me feel completely discombobulated again. For now I’m off to do research into the Solar Plexus. How extraordinary, wonderful, frightening, compelling, exciting to know there is likely so much to discover. You just don’t know what you don’t know.
