Integration Episode for The Virtue of Rhythm Part two - The Channeling

In today's episode I'd like to share a channeling I received about Rhythm:
When I wrote the prior episode I felt pretty satisfied. I thought that was it because I felt it was a channeling of its own with the inspiration that poured out about the different rhythms in our lives and then I got that channeling.   When tuning into the message I was left with this juicy sense of inspiration that was just beyond my reach with an essence of motion and fluidity, it just made me want more and more. I never know what they are going to say and  I was stunned. I have never thought of rhythm like that and just how intrinsic rhythm is to us.
It is very interesting they speak about the rhythm of our heart and our pulse and how that sends out a vibration to connect with the world around us.  The Heart Math Institute is a non profit organization that has been studying what is called "Heart coherence" for the past thirty years.
They provide tools and meditations to help tune into this frequency that emanates from the heart. I've heard reports that this frequency can be found up to four feet away from a person. Pretty incredible.

From Heartbeats to Music Beats: Exploring the Rhythms that Shape Our Existence - Integration for The Virtue of Rhythm Part One

This week I will share my musings. I got very poetic inspirations to call attention and speak to all the various kinds of rhythm in our lives each day. It is liken to the Danish word Hygge that describes a feeling of coziness and an environment and way of living; where as rhythm is also a felt and lived experience to understand the true meaning. As I am writing this, I am listening to some organic downtempo music and I find myself feeling into the rhythm as I type. I'm asking how Rhythm wants to be acknowledged
For starters, the presupposition of rhythm is there is movement of some kind and something is created from that movement that elicits a pattern. Some patterns turn into cycles and when they repeat, they create a rhythm.
We started the Harmonic Virtues with the virtue of Vibration to learn about energy.  Then inevitably the energy changes. Rhythm is what happens when energy changes, transforms and trans-mutates once, then again, and again and again leading to the virtue and universal law of perpetual transmutation of energy. Rhythm is where energetically the rubber meets the road of transformation.  The past three virtues of Karma, love and Ego give purpose and direction to transformation.
 
When something transforms there is a state from what it was and what it changes to. The void between states is the virtue of Rhythm. All energy has action potential. Rhythm is that action of that potential.  It is the essence and the energetic exchange that helps to usher the flow and cadence of cycles.
