Digesting regret, guilt and shame.

A Cleansing Ritual for Mind Warriors

Dear Mind Warriors,

In the pursuit of mental fortitude and inner balance, we invite you to embark on a transformative journey through the depths of your emotions. This edition is dedicated to confronting and processing feelings of disgust, shame, and regret — emotions that, when left unaddressed, can hinder our growth as warriors of the mind.

1. Acknowledge and Breathe: Begin your journey by acknowledging the presence of these challenging emotions. Take a deep breath, inhaling the courage to face them head-on. Understand that feeling these emotions is a part of the human experience.

2. Cleansing Ritual: Drink Water, Clay, and Dead Sea Salt: Engage in a physical cleansing ritual to symbolize the purification of your inner self. Start by drinking water to cleanse from within. Follow this with a clay and Dead Sea salt bath, allowing the minerals to absorb negativity and leave you feeling rejuvenated.

3. Deep Breathing and Crying Release: Practice deep breathing to connect with your inner self. As you breathe, allow any unspoken emotions to surface. Don't shy away from tears; let them flow naturally. Crying is a powerful release, and through it, you let go of the weight you've been carrying.

4. Journaling Dialogue: Embrace the healing power of journaling. Engage in a dialogue with each emotion. Ask, "Why do I feel disgust, shame, or regret?" Let the answers flow without judgment. Write a letter to each emotion, acknowledging its presence and expressing your desire to understand.

5. Connect with Yourself: In solitude, connect with yourself on a deeper level. Engage in a mindful dialogue with your ego. Ask it why it's holding onto these emotions and what lessons they might hold. Trust the process and listen to the wisdom that emerges. Seek ways to make amends and find peace within.

6. Trust the Journey and Make It Right: Trust the journey of self-discovery. As you explore the depths of your emotions, remember that healing is a process. Make a commitment to yourself to make things right. Identify actionable steps to transform these emotions into catalysts for positive change.

Mind Warriors, embracing and processing challenging emotions is an integral part of our journey toward inner strength. By following these steps, you're not only confronting the shadows within but also illuminating the path toward self-empowerment and healing. The more density the emotion presents can also be an indicator of how often it will need to be worked with. Treat your emotions with respect and they will mirror that same energy back to you. What eventually happens is you become so familiar with the operation of these emotions they submit to you via your awareness of them. Shame or Empowered? You choose.

In trust and resilience,
