Gray and Green and White all over

I attended a networking function last night. I try to go to a couple every week to meet new connections who could be future clients or intro me to future clients. This event had a mix of professionals from various industries. Everything from realtors to attorneys to alternative healing practitioners.

I really enjoy learning about alternative therapies and ways to use energy, herbs, nutrition, etc. as a way to stay healthy and heal instead of or as a supplement to traditional Western medicine. However, I left the event a little freaked out after talking with 2 separate practitioners.

Here's what happened. In both cases, after intros and chatting briefly about what we do, both people leaned in a little to me and said something to the effect of, "I hope you don't mind me saying this. I normally don't say things like this to people I've just met, but it's apparent to me that you are really struggling right now. It would help you to find a way to relax and release some of your negative energy." - or something like that.

It's been a very difficult, stressful year or two - both personally and professionally. However, I pride myself on being able to put my best face forward in a crowd and I truly enjoy being in situations where I'm meeting new people and learning about them. It helps me to stay positive and energetic! I didn't really mind when the 1st guy told me that I seemed to be oozing negativity, but when another woman told me something similar later in the evening, I started to really wonder. They both said that most people won't pick up on it but they could sense it. The woman read my aura and said I have a very large very dark gray (at least it's not black!) outer aura with green and white closest to me. Green signifies healing energy and white is spiritual. At least I have those going for me! I honestly wasn't surprised, due to everything that's been going on. It made me wonder, though. Can other people see or sense my distress?

I felt pretty crappy after that and realized that what these well-meaning people did was the equivalent of asking someone if they feel okay because they look like hell. It makes you feel worse! So I started envisioning my green and white auras expanding and erasing the gray. I also began to think about all the proactive things I can do to continue to heal and improve my situation.

Would it help me to have my chi adjusted or go for a massage? Most definitely. But I also know that I can begin to make good things happen right here, right now, today. So, now I'm gonna go do that! I hope you have a great day too!
