Hair as Communication with the Divine

I've never excelled at styling my hair. For most of my life, I left it long and hanging in whatever state it happened to be. There were a few times I had it cut short which required more styling finesse than I have been want to give. Only a handful of years was I willing to use styling products, and, for about ten years, I insisted on dyeing my hair, partly due to it graying and a few times for fun. Generally, hair, as both secular and religious history calls it, is a woman's "crowning glory." I'm not sure what led me to my search, but I became interested in hair coverings for women according to the Bible. Why have so many religions or denominations required a head covering for women? That search led me to all things hair particularly when I found a Nazarite's vow seemed to be rather similar to the requirements for a woman's haircare. First off, I've spent my entire life with the understanding that Nazarites were a separate religious group from bib...

Grounding

Lately, I've been feeling the need to really ground myself. I haven't been doing the best of jobs. Well, unless you count the extra poundage I've been adding to my frame as I continue to engulf food every few hours past the "I've had enough" phase. It is getting better since I'm aware of it. For my birthday this year, I went to a local energy healer and had LaHoChi performed on me. Every year, I try to do something new and this was one of them. LaHoChi is one of many energy healing modalities that, as the healer said, is more powerful than Reiki. The first thing she did was to evaluate my chakras to see how well they were functioning. It was my lower chakras, particularly the root chakra that was not running at optimum level. She clarified that pretty much everyone that came in there was in the same boat. In other words, we humans have a hard time grounding ourselves, especially those of us on a more spiritual path. For clarification purposes (in case yo...

Herd Mentality

Lately, I've been mulling over the "herd mentality." In marketing, the herd mentality is an extremely useful tool to use and understand. Essentially, we buy things or buy into ideas when our herd does, or the herd we wish to align ourselves with. The opposite also has its power - when we do not desire to align ourselves with a certain group, we shun those things and ideas that represent them. My first remembrance of being led by the herd mentality came in elementary school, perhaps in 3rd grade. Many a day, I would sit on the bus next to, or close by, a girl one year younger than I. She had the curliest sandy-colored mop of hair with horn-rimmed glasses, so shy and quiet. I considered her a friend but, I regret, she may not have felt the same about me. There was this moment that vividly sticks in my mind of briefly becoming a part of a group of bullies. See, she had lice. Quite noticeably too. Hopping lice. Honestly, I think a part of me was fascinated - I had never seen...
