🦶 The Metaphysics of an Ankle

Physically I know what's happening. I've had an mri scan, I know what’s going on (quite a bit going on actually!) and I’ve received steroid injections💉treatment and receiving rehabilitation.

But I'm also interested in the energetic significance of where something presents in the body.

🦶 Feet and ankles are often associated metaphysically with movement, direction, flexibility, support and moving forward. Is that my issue?

Well I don't believe there’s a simple explanation where pain in a body part = a particular emotional problem. I think we’re far more complex than that.

But I’ve been listening to my body, not anywhere near as much as I should though.

When I thought about what my ankle might represent, what came up for me wasn't a fear of moving forward or not knowing which direction to take.

It was something different and that distinction was important.

I've been working with a particular system of energy centres as part of my own development called the Light Body centres. And during one exercise I recognised where, within that energetic framework, the issue was actually sitting and worked with two light body centres simultaneously to transform the energy between them.

▪️The response was immediate.

When I connected with one of the centres I experienced something I wasn’t expecting. Well that’s not strictly true, I had been feeling it but the energy it provoked in my body when I tapped into that energy centre was crystal clear. I felt it and I saw it.

Working with the two centres together produced a profound immediate sense of relief.

Did that heal the physical structures in my ankle? Not quite, but let me say between working on the two light body centres together and working with my Osteopath, Hannah Beard, I’ve noticed a huge difference. Energetically there’s been a big shift, there really has.

And this is where my interest lies.

I find it fascinating how anatomy, psychology and energy work together!

🦶 An MRI showed me the physical structures involved, all really cool to see. Treatment is addressing the mechanics of my ankle and the way my body has adapted around the 4 injuries to the ankle.

My psychological awareness has helped me to see what's been happening in my life. And the Energy work gives me another way of exploring what I'm experiencing.

It doesn't mean I've discovered the metaphysical cause of ankle problems because I obviously haven't. But what I've discovered is what my ankle seems to be saying to me.

And that’s given me something rather exciting to work with😁
