You know the feeling, your head is a bit bowed down and you are unaware of your surroundings as if wearing horse blinders. Your mind is incessantly going round and round about a topic. One can visualize these thoughts as hamster wheels of the mind.
Jane is close to 60 and has been coming to see me for a few years. She had a difficult marriage and raised her son single-handedly after getting divorced when he was young. Long without a romantic relationship, one came into her life unexpectedly and she was over the moon. After a few months, however, he started showing signs of aggression. Before too long the relationship became untenable as a result of his emotional abuse.
That hurt!

The Trinity Activations
A part of The Divine Mother Modality
On an Infinite Soul level there is a perfect balance of the male and female. Yin/Yang. We were born from this. From this balanced polarity in our soul– our own divine mother and divine father, as it were – came a spark of light, and we as their divine child were born. You could call this divine child the “Higher Self” for this particular lifetime.
Call this grouping your Holy Trinity: Your soul’s Divine Mother, Divine Father, and the Divine Child for this lifetime. This is in the etheric realms.
The “birthing” of this divine child, or Higher Self, sets in motion our physical birth on the planet and we manifest as a human child birthed to a human mother and father. This is the realm of the/your Human Trinity

Self-doubt is like an internalized hydra – that mythological 10-headed serpentine water monster – and each head of the hydra has a different opinion.
There is self-doubt and then there is self-doubt. Self-doubt on overdrive is when making even a moderately important decision turns into a cacophony…in one’s head. One is at the mercy of conflicting thoughts.
“Cacophony” means a mixture of harsh and discordant sounds, and that about sums it up. If not this, what about that? If not that, what about the other? And if not the other, then what about this? Or that? Or none?
This kind of thinking is a bit different from what I call hamster-wheel thinking, or going round and round incessantly about a topic, but they are related. Hamster-wheel thinking is more obsessive and tracks endlessly around issues of relationship.

Diary of a Healer #9, by Annie Bond
“I have to have it – every day,” noted a client who wants to stop alcohol. She has a few glasses of wine every night, and while she generally doesn’t have more than that, feels dependent.
“When I start drinking I can’t stop,” noted another, a social binge drinker.
“I drank like a fish and have been sober for five years; I get addicted to everything” said another.
All three are professional women with husbands and children, and are haunted by their alcohol use.

The ego is a tough taskmaster, an operating system all its own. We are born to its travails at home, in school, with friends, at work. It is part of being human and always will be. Managing this system is part of everyone’s spiritual growth and also part of our individuation from family and the collective. Are we a servant or warrior at work?
This is the difficult terrain of the third chakra.
Maria is a client who is a digital media crackerjack. She is magnificently capable. She is in the midst of a deal breaker crisis at work –underpaid for her role, being paid less than men in her position, with a job title that doesn’t reflect her high level contributions – while a workhorse with a lot of responsibility, for a company whose mission she cares about. Exhausted and despondent, she was at the end of her tether.
