Hey, it's Lynita Mitchell-Blackwell. So, I know it has been a while since I actually sent out an email. Actually, it's been almost a year. Can I catch you up and tell you why?
So, I have been thinking for quite some time about the fact that we are all on these email lists and we get these emails and there is a sequence. And there's no shame to that, right? We're all here and we know why we're here. we're here to get information and we know eventually there is going to be an ask, right? And I am no different than any other person out here that's about to make the ask but here's the thing, I thought about the information that we we give for free and it's not really free because we all expect or should expect, let me say that, an energetic exchange.
And I was thinking about the energy that I had within me that I was sending out. And I said, you know, I really need to do more work on me before I send out anything else. And so as I normally do every year, I take a pause during the summer months on everything.
So social media, emails, a lot of times speaking engagements, the whole nine yards so that I can rejuvenate, refresh, and come back strong for the fall. And then to make that ask of whatever it is I am putting forth into the atmosphere. Well, this past year, I was like, you know, what if I do this differently? What if I wait after I have done my rest, my rejuvenation, then do the ask? So instead of doing the ask and then rejuvenate, let's rejuvenate and then do the ask. And something magical happened.
So the first thing is that instead of having to go through surgery when I wasn't feeling well I was able to tap into my own body alarm clock, alarm system I should say and say you know what I'm not feeling all that great let me get on to the doctor and so after a time I was able to resolve some things that were going on within me with some natural remedies. I'm talking about increasing water intake.
I'm talking about increasing my protein. I'm talking about getting more rest at night and really taking care of me. So that's the first thing, right? Which led to the second thing, which I started studying more healing modalities and actually the practice of them, the science behind them. And I became a Reiki practitioner, which is the study of energetic supplemental healing. And one of the things that I love about Reiki materials is that they all say the same thing. Reiki is not magic. That's correct. Reiki is not healing in and of itself. That is also correct. Do not abandon what your doctor has told you.
Check, check, check. But with faith all things are possible and so I was able to enjoy what was possible, which is, when listening to my inner voice, the God within me, that I was able to resolve something without a whole lot of money. But it did take time. Which leads me here to today, the time to come back here in email form saying hello world to come back here in blog form. Hello world to come back after a month of rest. A little more than that. Ask you from social and say hello world. It is so good to be back. And so what are we doing now?
Because I prepped you and I said there's always gonna be an ask. Well this spring coming up in April I have my annual retreat and I am really excited about the work that we will do together. This is work in order to tap into oneself to realize how we got here to this stressed out overworked little bunny who is really successful but realize there's something missing.
To get some tools that will help us so that when we go back to the real world, that's home, that's work, that's to all these organizations that we are part of, that we don't forget what we've learned during the retreat and then we have a 90-day period of support and so you're going to be seeing information about that.
You'll see posts about that and all of them will be free and then I'm going to make the ask and so that I can welcome you to my retreat. So stay tuned take care.
