Hi LtJ,

You said...

There have been two moments where I have intentionally lowered my vibration just to get back to the familiar, to take a break so to speak. My method consisted of ordering an oversized amount of fast food while drinking a bottle of alcohol while hanging back with some dumb movie and just throw this whole awakening stuff in the corner for a while. Upon reflection, this method worked for me because at a vibrational level it ties in well to many of the... old hooks?

What if there's some truth (of the Soul) expressing in some element of the old?

Our vibration can accelerate through various revelations and inquiries, but to maintain that speed of vibration requires total attention and commitment - it will require a wider "pipe". And so I too have found (and still do) that lowering the speed of vibration and actualisation is beneficial from time to time.

However, I also realised this - if we're not careful in this, it becomes like a rollercoaster ride: sometimes really high, sometimes really low. It risks becoming self-defeating.

So what has worked for me, is to balance the highs and lows. If the speed gets too rapid and I find myself potentially detaching from this reality, then I'll need to slow things down a while - denser comfort foods, a movie, some short while of distraction. I do find the Soul expressing in these - it feels nurturing and more self-accepting. But I've learned that some experiences can be incredibly destructive - alcohol for example. Or movies without any meaning. Or fast food. Is there a balance you can find that slows things down a degree, but without plunging too low?

You find a way of staying "up", but taking your foot off the gas pedal when necessary.

Open 🙏
