"The Queen Bee of Knees: Navigating Life's Challenges through Knee Wisdom"
I’ve coined myself the “Queen Bee of Knees”. My life has been a series of my knees trying to communicate with me. Through my experiences, I have learned how decode the language of our knees. What does it mean when they hurt, when they buckle, or in my case stop functioning due to serious injuries.
My knee problems started when I was 16…
I was an aspiring ballet dancer and my knees started hurting so severely, I was receiving Cortisone shots. It took about a year and my left knee blew out, and I tore my meniscus.
Reflecting back on this difficult, painful period in my youth, and the ability to pursue my dreams in jeopardy, I felt my physical stability and emotional security threatened! What else was going on in my life at that time?
Age 16 is a big milestone. You get a driver’s license, and if you’re lucky, a car to drive, and that feeling of independence. Age 16, you really start to have an awareness, you are on the cusp of adulthood.
I was lucky enough, my parents got me a car! This car was like no other car in the school parking lot. The car became a symbol of my status in life. By my standards, it was the ugliest, most embarrassing, shameful car a girl growing up in Orange County, California could drive. I was so grateful, consciously, (I knew my parents sacrificed to provide me this vehicle.) Paradoxically, it became my daily reminder of the financial stress in my family. The lack of stability, physical, financial, and emotional were ever present in my life. Did I mention my family moved 4 times in 5 years, 3 different states? I did not have a stable foundation, physically, emotionally or financially. (Check out the picture I found on the internet of a similar, classy ‘69 Buick Skylark, in the comments.)
I felt shame, I no longer felt grounded in my family’s ability to provide for me. I no longer felt safe from embarrassment. My knees started giving out!
The knees represent safety, security, and grounding. It is part of the root chakra, our foundation. This represents the ability to survive. Safety, emotional security, and financial stability all are found in the root chakra. And not surprisingly, so are the knees!
I would love to offer to those with chronic knee pain or injuries, a diagnostic session to find a connection between their knees and their grounding, physical, emotional, and spiritual stability, financial security and other areas of their life.
