MILKY WAY BLOG
Lisa Kay's Milky Way Blog will dive into the deep end of one soul's journey to heal a chronic illness diagnosis by following the breadcrumbs from spirit through chakra balancing, crystal dreaming, breathwork, QHHT, reiki, and so much more. Follow along on this spiritual journey in the Milky Way Collective!
Long story short, I’ve been putting this off.
The world is calling for me to start sharing my voice in a really big way and I thought what better time to birth this new era than on the spring equinox?
If you followed along on my soul journey in 2021, you would know that I’ve been spiritual my whole life, but like most people in my metaphysical shoes, I shut down my gifts. Looking back now, I can see I was built for a world that didn’t yet exist. I felt out of place, alone, longed to go back home, and tried my best to just be “normal.”
I suffered with depression most of my life and although I don’t think back on any one time as being a “spiritual awakening,” I had many on-the-bathroom-floor dark nights of the soul. The thing that continued to get me through the most challenging times in my life was this deep knowing that I was here for a reason.
Fish in the Sea
The two of us used to have this saying that we were like two fish in the sea, going where the tides took us. It was those types of nights out where we found the most sparkly magic and loads of fun along the way. Maybe all the time in the ocean prepped us for the task of being two fish in the sea on this night out, because things were definitely working out for us in a magical way.
We headed out to Broadway at the Beach to find Jimmy Buffet's Margaritaville restaurant and luckily my friend's eyes spied the sign from the parking lot. I dropped her off to head in to check on seating availability while I circled back and found a parking spot. By the time I joined her, she mentioned it would be a three and a half hour wait for a table, so I suggested we stop in at a fair trade store across from the restaurant first and I found a lovely piece of citrine that I had to pick up.
Stripping Illusions
On our first morning together, my host woke early and headed to the beach to do a little journaling and I slept in until eight and began my day with my traditional Abraham Hicks Process 21 Wellness Meditation and then a 10-minute morning meditation with Jason Stephenson where I set the intention to have the most fun together in Myrtle Beach!
Once we reunited, we prepared for breakfast out on the town and ended up at Blueberry Cafe in North Myrtle Beach, quite a drive, but filled with our usual soul talk. We have always been deep thinkers and although I can't tell you exactly what the subject of this soul talk on this day was (or for much of our time together), I can assure you it was during that drive that I came to the realization that we were together at this stage of my trip to help me talk out some of the things I have been experiencing along the way.
Soaking Up The Sun
On my last day in Boynton Beach, I had a long to-do list to prep for my next day of travel. I began with a cup of Cold Brew of course so I could clean out my pitcher and pack it up for the trip. I spent some time repacking my suitcase and organizing for my travel day. I have a large suitcase filled with clothes and then a smaller suitcase that I pack for the next leg of the journey. My spacious empty townhouse digs gave me plenty of room to spread out and repack for my next trip before I began loading bags back into the car.
I had a lunch date with my host who was experiencing life as a normal Friday workday. We met at a chain fast food place called Pollo Tropical that was near her office building. It seems this restaurant is only located in Florida at this time, but I highly recommend it if you pass one by! I ordered a Tropichop - a bowl with rice, black beans, fajita veggies, tomatoes, and corn as well as their chopped up grilled chicken and a delicious Cilantro Lime sauce. Yum! Definitely more than I could eat for lunch. As a bonus, they had free wi-fi, so I was able to stay longer to upload a few blogs.
Tourist in Boynton Beach
As the week was rolling on, I decided it was time I actually went to the beach! I was getting the hang of this ignoring the weather app thing (it always says it's going to storm!). So I loaded up with all my supplies and headed to Oceanfront Park.
I figured out the parking system and hauled my chair and beach bag down the winding boardwalk to the sand and found a spot a good distance from others already camped out there. I immediately stripped down to my swimming suit because it was so hot. I doused with sunscreen and broke out my journal to catch up on writing.
