When Understanding Brings Physical Symptoms

"Since deepening in this understanding, I’ve been experiencing unusual physical sensations and symptoms. Is this connected to spiritual awakening? Rupert says: ‘As understanding deepens, the body-mind goes through a realignment process. Old patterns stored in the body begin to release, which can manifest as physical sensations or symptoms. The body is not separate from consciousness – it’s consciousness appearing as sensation and perception. When identification with separation dissolves, the energetic patterns that maintained that identification also dissolve. This can temporarily create unusual experiences as the system reorganises. Don’t make these symptoms special or problematic. Neither resist nor indulge them. Rest as the presence you are whilst allowing the body its process of realignment. Trust the intelligence of the process.’"
