When my Travel anxiety met Divine Intervention
Dear friends, I was bummed to miss training by Meena Puri today, but my travel day turned into an unexpected masterclass…
You know that feeling of travel anxiety? Where one small hiccup can send you into a spiral of anger and worry? That was me this morning, when an airline charged me for a “free” checked bag.
What unfolded was a grueling three-hour marathon with customer service, policies, and fine print. My analytical IT brain went into overdrive, pointing out their misleading “Bag Included” without an asterisk.
My heart was racing, my temper flaring. I even threatened to cancel my ticket, feeling completely out of control.
After hanging up, I quickly found an alternative flight. But then, as I leaned back on the sofa, closed my eyes, touched my heart
and took a breath, a powerful inner voice emerged: “I can choose.” 
Boom. The lightbulb went off 
I was in command, not the airline. Forty dollars? I’d deal with it later. But right now, I was flying 
. In that moment, I consciously freed myself from the frustration, anger, and desperation. I chose balance, peace, and love . My nervous system settled, the “fight or flight” vanished, and I was breathing easy, smiling again

I chose balance, peace, and love . My nervous system settled, the “fight or flight” vanished, and I was breathing easy, smiling again And just then, the Universe responded with true magic.
My Uber driver arrived 10 minutes early, and the community gates magically opened for him. No dragging bags to the curb; he was right there, smiling. We both puzzled over how the gates opened without a clicker! I knew instantly it was the Divine reflecting back the ease, freedom, and happiness I had just chosen.Three months into the Root Healing Immersion with Meena Puri, this healing has been profound. My gaze is softer, my heart overflows with love – yes, even for the customer service agents I spoke with for hours this morning who might not have known better!
I was so excited, I started writing this on the flight itself, grinning from ear to ear
