I was recently visiting some friends in the Great Smoky Mountains in North Carolina. I went there for clarity, rest and healing. I guess sometimes clarity comes in the form of biting no-see-um bugs. I was covered in bug bites! They were extremely itchy, and sometimes painful. Because this continued, even after multiple attempts of minimizing the exposure to bites, I started to look for the hidden message in the bug bites. I started to look at what was REALLY bugging me. I think in life, humans tend to repress, repress, repress. This is our coping mechanism. And then all of a sudden, all that we have been repressing comes to the surface for healing. Much like the bug bites, the process of healing can be extremely itchy and sometimes painful. But once we can identify what's bugging us, the healing can begin and the pain goes away. Interestingly enough, sometimes we don't even need to identify what's bugging us, we just need to be aware that we are being bothered. Then, simply surrender and and hold the intention to release. So, I invite you....the next time you get a bug bite (or two), ask yourself, "What's bugging me?" Whether you can identify it or not, simply surrender and release. Author: Betty Segerdahl
