Help me deal with a health issue taking into account Steve's article on
polarity.
I have had a chronic illness for the last 4 years. It causes mid-grade symptoms, which can flare up suddenly, it affects my sleep as I am in pain, which has a big knock-on effect on my energy during the day, and on bad days significantly affects my appearance and self-confidence.
Finding that conventional medicine didn't help me, I turned to alternative therapies and from the benefit I received from them my interest in them was reignited, consequently I trained as a coach and healer.
I expressed my interest in healing outwards. I offered my services to friends for free and did lots of treatments for them and to clients and mixed this with my day job which is managing training and development for a company. However I found that although my friends and clients were doing really well, I was getting drained and my health was getting worse. I was giving out all my energy and enthusiasm.
At the start of this year I turned my focus inwards. I've stopped treating others for the time being and am focusing on getting well (although I am still working as have mortgage to pay). I can see an improvement in my condition if I spend a lot of time ensuring that my diet is very good and importantly I get enough rest. While I am ok with having some focus on myself for a few months as it is really important to me to get well again, I can already feel myself getting restless and wanting to offer my services out again.
So what do I do? Steve mentioned that we have a basic polarity and if I look back at my life, mine is to offer service and support to others. However at the moment it is only by focusing inwards on getting health that I feel some improvement. Is there a way I can focus on getting my health back using an outwards polarity? I did start blogging my progress but I found that draining. If I focus back on building up my business as a service (outwards) will this cancel out the gains I make by focusing on my health in an inwards way?
