Growing hair out



I'm ready to grow my hair out again.
This means I'm feeling more grounded in this space.
Every time I am shedding into a new skin I cut my hair off.
The first time was when my mom and sister took a trip without me. I know now they needed time together and it wasn't to exclude me but... that is how I felt. So when they were gone I drove myself to great clips (I was 16) and chopped my hair off. The next time was in chiropractic school during the last trimester as I knew all these wonderful friends, this sphere of learning and learning culture was coming to and end and we were going to scatter all over the globe. These friends there when I learned who I am at my very worst. They will forever be in my heart. The most recent was when we moved to Raleigh, I cut a little... then, Dink our dog died and I had to cut it off. It was weighing me down. It felt like a heavy winter coat in a warm summer day. I've recently learned that hair is said to be "Spiritually significant, hair is seen as shakti, life force itself, pushing out from our crown’s window, holding a record of our past existence." (Ashley Ludman) So I am validated in my urgent need to cut my hair during these times.
I am comforted in the gift of my wanting to grow my hair longer again. It means I am standing on firmer ground. I'll document my progress here. :-) I am taking extra enzymes to promote the hair growth. It contains ingredients which the body uses as building blocks for hair, skin and nails.
Love and light,
Heidi
