I woke up in the early hours this morning after having an incredibly interesting dream. I’ve been using my dreams as a way of communicating with my spirit guides so I think they’ve been getting into the habit of giving me little messages in the last dream before I wake up.
Interestingly, this dream gave me a deeper understanding of skin picking and the emotions behind “getting acne”. It showed me a new level of awareness of why a lot of us have acne, and this skin picking habit and why some of us are having so much of a difficult time kicking it.
I dreamt that I had a huge blackhead in my left cheek, which kind of looked like a thorn. This blackhead however wasn’t any ordinary blackhead, it had a strong energy around it. The energy it was holding was a current insecurity that I have in my life at the moment. In my dream I then grabbed some tweezers and pulled the blackhead thorn out, and out came my insecurity!
There are two little lessons I got from this dream, and felt them as soon as I woke up. The first was a validation of the toxic emotions we feel that create acne. I’ve read in countless books by very beautiful energetic healers that acne is created by low self esteem, insecurity and feeling uncomfortable in your own skin. The insecurity feeling in the thorny blackhead was so strong and so significant in my dream. It was like a little ball of toxic energy that was busting to get out of my body.
The second lesson was the reason why we pick. It’s almost like we are unconsciously aware that this toxic stuff in our skin holds this energy so we want to pull it all out. This makes me feel that the skin picking habit that a lot of us have goes a lot deeper than what I originally thought.
At the conscious level we can be aware that we’re actually doing it, and acknowledge the significant issues or problems in our life that create the habit. However, perhaps we also know at some level that these are just emotional toxins trying to come out of our body and we therefore want to help force them to come out even faster!!
I had a bit of a reflection today over this dream and how I feel this new level of awareness could help myself and others kick this habit. And to be honest, I’m not entirely sure just yet. But I do feel that just by becoming more in tune with our body and seeing these little blackheads, whiteheads and inflammations as energy pockets of emotional toxins coming out our body can be incredibly healing. It’s also a wonderful way to become more in tune with our body and to therefore acknowledge and become aware that perhaps some emotional work needs to be done.
I’ve been getting such a beautiful insight into the acne of my readers through my coaching program. Reading through everyone’s stories and seeing pics of their skin has been an incredible learning experience for me. It’s also made me realize that the issues of skin picking and the emotional connection of acne is poorly discussed on and off the net. It’s this HUGE gap in acne treatment that is very often overlooked.
I’m going to be working a lot more on these two issues both inside my coaching program and inside this blog because I feel that nobody else is really doing it. It may seem a bit hippy-trippy at times, but I feel that’s okay because I just know that this is going to lead to some significant healing.
