Have you ever had a crazy fun idea that just lit up your whole body and being? You could feel the energy inside of you bubbling and growing... the excitement brought joy and hope... then you share it with someone else.
This person projected (energetically vomited) all over it and you.
They may say “whoa, slow down now, that is too much energy.” Or “why would you want to do that, it’s a terrible idea.”
And you immediately went into the wrongness of you. You judged yourself, shut it down, push it back inside, dim the light, and slowed it down to barely a trickle. Then you agreed with their point of view and beat yourself up.
Sound familiar?
Did you know that your body locks that energy in as a reference point. From that point forward you may refer back to this old experience (reference point) anytime you are excited about an idea, creation, job, relationship, choice or possibility. You may notice your body becomes heavy and restricted, you may hear a voice in your head saying “You can’t do that, you aren’t smart enough, you aren’t strong enough, you suck!” You may not know why your body gets heavy and restricted or why you just stop creating and continue choosing the same old patterns.
Did you know anytime you hear “You” in your head, it’s not yours. It’s someone else’s projection, judgement, point of view that you have locked in as real and true for you. You bought it, hook, line, and sinker! Where have you been shutting you off and looping back to this old reference point?
Did you know that a Bars session can unlock the energy of these old reference points which allows you to choose from a different place, one without judgment.
In my first Bars session (almost 3 years ago) I was blown away by the change it created in my life and living. I thought I was perpetually stuck with the thoughts, feelings, and emotions that kept coming up for me over and over again. I often wondered what happened to “me", the me that was joyful, silly, fun, bright and happy. The me that existed before I was molded into the beige sheep and told not to stand out, not to draw attention, not to be too happy or too silly. I was a neon sheep working tirelessly to hide my true colors. Imagine the amount of energy it takes to keep all of that from popping out!
After my first Bars session what I noticed was an enormous amount of energy, happiness, lightness, joy, and space!! I found the true me.
Things that once had an emotional charge and would stick me no longer existed. It just wasn’t there anymore. Things that I didn’t even realize where old reference points would come up and I wouldn’t have my usual emotional response.
Let me give you an example.
Here in Colorado we have a pass called Red Mountain Pass just outside of Ouray. Google it!!
Red Mountain Pass is a high mountain pass at an elevation of 3.358m (11,018ft) above the sea level, located in the San Juan Mountains of southwestern Colorado. At this elevation, the pass is one of the highest paved passes in Colorado.
This road can be closed anytime due to avalanches, massive rock slides, continuous falling rocks and the amount of rubble, and when the access is not cleared of snow.
The road includes some steep sections, and there are no protections or guard rails along some parts of the road. Avalanches are frequent, and can block the highway for some time.
About 10 years ago, a colleague and I were traveling home from a training in Durango. Red Mountain pass is a two lane road and very beautiful but it has claimed many lives. As we rounded a curve we were immediately stopped as a massive avalanche was flowing off the cliff covering the road. We were the first car and could see a good mile of road ahead of us covered with snow, trees, boulders, and debris.
As we sat there with no where to go I began to panic. All I could think of was “this mountain is collapsing and if more snow comes down, over the edge we go.” This was a traumatic event that locked in a reference point from which I continued to create my life years later.
We sat in the car for over two hours waiting... waiting for the plows to move the massive amount of snow. Waiting to be pushed off the cliff by the next slide. Waiting to either live or die. This is known as PTSD, post traumatic stress disorder.
Obviously we didn’t die! But that experience changed me forever. I had to travel over Red Mountain again in the years after that incident. I would have full blown panic attacks, nausea, paralyzing stiffness in my body, racing thoughts, and chest pain. I used Xanax on several trips and tried to go to sleep. Essential oils were my next option and again I would use them and hope to just sleep through the torture.
A day after my first Bars session we had a trip to Durango planned to watch our youngest play high school soccer. Of course we would have to travel over Red Mountain and it was April which is the same month as the avalanche experience.
I didn’t realize the magic that occurred the day before. In that Bars session something changed on a very deep level. We started up the mountain and I felt peace and calm. I enjoyed the view, and even rolled the window down to take pictures. My husband said “I think I had more anxiety on this trip than you did.” He has driven over this pass many many times in blizzards and even in semi trucks hauling snowcats. We were both amazed that I didn’t have a trauma response to the pass.
The trip didn’t come up during my Bars session, I didn’t intend to clear this, yet somehow my body cleared it. What once had a debilitating hold on me, no longer controlled my life and living. The emotional charge was GONE!!
This is the power of Access Bars.
Imagine the areas of your life that if cleared could open a door that you didn’t even know was closed.
Every time I get my Bars run more and more is cleared and I am able to choose beyond the limitations that I created from those past reference points.
This is just one of the many things that change by having your Bars run. It may be weeks, months, or even years before you notice what one Bars session created in your life. What could change if you chose it again and again and again? Hmm, I wonder.
