So this morning I had an interesting experience that I thought worth sharing.
There I was, feeling good. Post meditation, post great cup of coffee, post cuddle with the cat and then Jen reminds me that I’d said I’d drive her to work. No problem at all – still in my pyjamas but took no time to dress and we’re off. I like driving Jen to work, we have good chats.
After a few minutes driving I remark to Jen that I feel odd and that I’m feeling much taller than usual! I’m sat in the car feeling as if either the car has shrunk or I have grown 12 inches and lost a few stone. How is that possible?
No one else has driven the car so it’s not as if the seat has been moved, I don’t believe that I’m having a wonky brain episode and the coffee really wasn’t very strong, so WT*
Jen then starts to see me as taller and we both get a little freaked out and the giggles start (especially Jen!)
I then remember this morning’s meditation and the fact that I’d been visualising perfect health, perfect body etc. Yeah I know, but we all do it don’t we?
I then started to wonder if the morning visualisation really had had a change effect on me physically!
Perhaps my spine really had lengthened and my waistline reduced. Wow, if that was the case, and I really couldn’t think of anything else, then really, Wow!
I started to relax into the knowing that spontaneous healing and physical change really is a thing, and here I am as proof!
Still somewhat freaked out, but feeling some twinges of excitement as I start to plan the email I’m going to send to the spontaneous healing people, I habitually go to push my glasses up my nose (not literally but I think you’ll know what I mean).
It’s then that I realise I’m not wearing my glasses! They are not on my nose. I am not wearing my glasses and I’m driving!
For those of you who, like me, have pretty bad eyesight and wear their glasses all of the time but especially when they’re driving, you’ll know the panic that I experienced, especially when hurtling up
the M1 in the outside lane.
There then followed a distinct slowing down, and an even more distinct deterioration in my eyesight. How could I have driven five miles without noticing that I wasn’t wearing my glasses!
How could I have thought that my change in perspective was due to a post meditation spontaneous inches gain and weight loss? How could I be so weird!!!
So, after Jen reassuring me that I probably was safe to drive home after dropping her off, (but also asking me to text her on arrival – some reassurance there!) I drove squintily and nervously home, avoiding the M1 and not daring to overtake any cyclists.
What went on? Who knows, but I reckon I was seeing the world differently without my glasses. I’d probably never driven without wearing them. To make sense of this change of perspective my helpful brain had offered me some options and trust me to go for the woowoo, hippy dippy version
of spontaneous healing!
Actually I totally believe in spontaneous healing so of course it made sense!
Anyway, I’m now sitting here writing this, wearing my glasses and feeling unusually short and dumpy. And also a little bit disappointed.
