Why do you do that?

Hi there, Reader!

I am the baby of family, the 3rd of 3 kids, born five years after the middle child. My two older siblings say they remember a time when our parents were happy. But I do not.

I remember a lot of arguing and silent treatments and sideward angry glances. When I was 16, the marriage ended in divorce in 1982. Two months later, my dad passed of a heart attack at age 55. My mom passed in 2018 and had high risk diabetes.

As a sound healing practitioner looking in at my parent's relationship, I can see the correlation of their unhappiness and unbalanced energy their chakra systems.

My dad had heart disease which, as you can probably guess, is related to the Heart Chakra. The heart chakra is about giving and receiving unconditional love. He was not verbally expressive with positive emotions of love, gratitude, forgiveness. There were rarely any hugs with the family members. From this observation of having imbalanced heart energy, it is not surprising that Dad had heart issues.

As for my mom, diabetes is related to the Solar Plexus Chakra, which is located in the upper abdomen. Physically, the pancreas, also located in the abdomen, produces insulin, a hormone that helps regulate blood sugar which potentially contributes to diabetes. This chakra is also linked to self-esteem, personal power, and digestion. All of which can be affected by the stress and challenges associated with living with diabetes and, of course, an unhappy marriage (or 3, as in my mom's case).

Last week I facilitated my first [you-don't-have-to-read-the-book] Book Club + Networking for Holistic Entreprenuers. We discussed Start With Why by Simon Sinek. In his book, he emphasizes that lasting success in a business stems from understanding and communicating the purpose (the "why") behind the actions, rather than focusing on what is done or how it is done.

When I started my journey on this path of sound healing practitioner and entrepreneur, I was going through huge transition: got divorced, bought and then sold my house, quit my long-term career. I also purged a lot of pent up emotions as I was getting rid of material objects from my space. I know loving call this my Period of Purging. lol This period is also when I read this book for the first time.
​
Now, also 4 years later, I know that I do what I do because I want to help others through their own Period of Purging. I want to guide them through releasing all the emotional and mental energy stuck in their biofield BEFORE is manifests physically. Because, if we do not face our emotional and mental trauma, it can show up as physical manifestations, as it did for my parents.
​
​The interesting part of finding your why is that the what and how doesn't matter! I could do other services, have different products, or a completely different career to help people with their transition and purging of past trauma. But I am passionate about sound vibrations, music and how it effects our mental and emotional states. So, I chose sound healing for the modality to deliver my why.

How about your why - for your business? And how does that drive the what you do and how it gets done?
