The Journey of the Eight Stones

Edgar Nettlebelly was not christened ‘Ernest,’ no sir, he earned that title with his Emotional Processing System (EPS), ‘The Journey of the Eight Stones.’ It is on the eighth stone (thus the VIII), that Edgar Nettlebelly transmutes (changes the experience into a better state), whereby all of the negative from the experience turns to positive with the realization that despite all the drama and upset endured, that we end up being further ahead than where we were before we even began the upset!

Through his Emotional Processing System (EPS), Edgar Nettlebelly teaches us that nothing happens TO us, it happens FOR us.

The reflection of the eighth stepping stone is what creates the ‘Ernest’ (what is intended as a promise of what is to come). This particular ‘benefit’ is not for THIS current situation, but for the positive mindset when faced with similar on the NEXT time that we’re due for lifting or gifting.

It’s never about the destination, no sir, because that’s always ‘anywhere but this current ‘now’ moment.’ The magic ALWAYS happens along the journey. Edgar ‘Ernest’ Nettlebelly VIII transmutes the fear into ‘adventure,’ because after using this process once, we’ll already know that the experience will be FOR us, giving us the opportunity for either a lesson or blessing (learn or grow), and thus we get the ‘next’ journey done with ‘Ernest.’

Disclaimer: Edgar ‘Ernest’ Nettlebelly VIII fully admits that these steppingstones don’t always happen in chronological order for everyone, no sir. We may find ourself doubling back within the process, or if we’re lucky enough, maybe even skip some of the steppingstones completely!

Edgar ‘Ernest’ Nettlebelly VIII still thinks that it’s useful for us to know about ALL the different steppingstones of the EPS so as to have better clarity and an understanding of what’s happening because it becomes easier to work towards healing and acceptance if we ‘know’ how to play the game (so as to be able to move on with our life quicker). Nothing too good, or too bad, lasts for too long his Great Grandma would say.

THE EMOTIONAL PROCESSING SYSTEM (EPS)

The ‘Journey of the Eight Steppingstones’ consists of: Humbleness, Woulda-Coulda-Shoulda, Projection/Wishful Thinking, Self-Reflection, Awakening, Reinvention, Love & Acceptance, and Reflection & Gratitude. These will be explained in more detail a little later.

Patrick ‘Pointy Finger’ McMirror (Top Civil-Servant and Head Honcho at the Ministry of ‘Let’s-Blame-Someone-Else,’) states that the EPS can be used for any loss, hardship, unexpected change and even grief. The principles of the Universal Laws remain constant. It’s just a matter of unlearning what we have already been taught and embracing the ‘new’ wisdom of the Golden-Age.’

As with most pain, it’s usually associated with our resistance. The purpose of FEELING these emotions is to present it to the Coddle-Poppers/Higher Dimensionals so that they can SEE them (they/we will NOT go looking for them). Any emotions that a person fails to FEEL and/or reveal, they get to keep. Let’s take a closer look at the eight stepping stones in a little more detail and introduce some of the Coddle-Poppers who are able to assist along the way:

HUMBLENESS (Steppingstone 1 – Law of Humility)

When we experience our Baptism of Fire’ (Explained and brought to us by Bobby Blowhard-Noseworthy, also known as ‘The Bishop of Bottom-Burp Brook’), our first reaction when we learn of our unexpected change/loss/medical condition/situation (insert hardship here), is usually shock and then a sudden realization of no longer having the convenience, person, or whatever to fall back on.

The Bishop of Bottom-Burp Brook states that this can be closely followed by denial and our refusal to accept that the change, loss or removal of convenience has happened. Our Baptism of Fire causes confusion, anger and even hopelessness. Bobby Blowhard-Noseworthy wants us to know that in some instances, our reaction could even be the complete opposite, where we go numb with a total lack of feeling as though we’re watching the world go by (but we’re not being part of it).

The key to transmuting our initial shock and denial is mindfulness. We are being called to embrace the humbleness and figuratively walk a mile in someone else’s shoes, yet still find gratitude for our current circumstances that we find ourself. Edgar ‘Ernest’ Nettlebelly VIII insists that there’s ALWAYS magic, even in the times of our darkest moments. This is where we finally appreciate the water, even though the well has since gone dry.

It is in this humble mindfulness that we search for the gratitude (despite the change/loss), for all the things that we take for granted and to express that appreciation (preferably out loud), and to then look for the blessings that still remain in the present ‘now’ moment (there’s always a spare blessing or two that remains, even if it’s as simple as, ‘it could have been worse,’ or ‘there but for the GRACE of God go I’). The more we can find, the better.

The secret-sauce is our gratitude. The mindfulness in our humble ‘now’ moment is what becomes our foundation stones. This sets us up with a firm base to rebuild upon with the forth-coming steppingstones.

SHOULDA-WOULDA-COULDA (Steppingstone 2 – Law of Now)

Following on from our initial shock, Edgar ‘Ernest’ Nettlebelly VIII explains that we usually then feel empty on the inside (like there’s a hole in our heart). CAUTION: If we’re not careful, this emotional pain can escalate and manifest itself as a physical pain too (because our body speaks our mind). For example: The liver holds anger and resentment, or, when we fail to speak our truth, it can result in a sore throat. We get shoulder problems from shouldering a burden.

Peter ‘Prozy’ Prankwhistle-Bloweharde II, also warns us that we may even feel guilty for causing the loss, or for bothering others with our ‘petty problems,’ or even for feeling relieved that we, or our loved one, is no longer suffering. Our mind usually circles back to regrets of ‘not having done more,’ ‘How did I not see it coming?’ or ‘I should’ve recognized the signs earlier.’

To process this pain/guilt, we need to FEEL every shortcoming. It’s important that we acknowledge it for what it is. The shortcomings of our pain and guilt MUST be expressed (we cannot afford to bury these emotions. They must be given their voice, thanked and released with love. This is something that Henrietta Entwhistle-Kikkenhymer (Flamin’ H.E-K) can help us with.

PROJECTION/WISHFUL THINKING (Steppingstone 3 – Law of Responsibility)

Patrick ‘Pointy Finger’ McMirror (Top Civil-Servant and Head Honcho at the Ministry of ‘Let’s-Blame-Someone-Else,’) states that this third steppingstone is where we try to patch back the ‘hole in our heart.’ This is usually where we point our blame and anger at ourselves/specific people/God or at the world in general. This steppingstone is where we’re likely to get angry at the unfairness of life (being on the ‘struggle-bus’ trying to process the change of dynamic or loss being so hard).

Edgar ‘Ernest’ Nettlebelly VIII adds that on this same steppingstone, we may also experience bargaining, by saying things like, ‘If I could only have (name/thing/issue/time) back, I promise to be better.’ The saddest part being that we get our hopes up even on the faintest slither of a chance that we may get our old dynamic or loss back. It ain’t gonna happen!

SELF-REFLECTION (Steppingstone 4 – Law of Creation)

So, when our bargaining falls upon deaf ears, and the reality of the loss or change in dynamic sets in, Sydney ‘Tick-Tock’ Sniggleworth (The Sly) warns that we may enter a sort of depression (not clinical depression – though not impossible if not nipped in the bud early). It is on steppingstone 4 that we could feel isolated and distant from others, unable to feel joy about usually joyful things, and may have trouble eating, sleeping or concentrating.

We may even feel hopeless and ‘unloved,’ so it becomes important for us to stay connected with friends and seek support instead of avoiding contact with others. The way to work our way through our low ebb is by self-reflection.

To process this pain/guilt properly, we need to FEEL and understand every shortcoming. It is important that we acknowledge it for what it is. These shortcomings (of our guilt and/or pain) MUST be expressed (we cannot afford to bury these emotions. They must be given their voice, thanked and released with love.

If Sydney ‘Tick-Tock’ Sniggleworth (The Sly) is unable to help, then call upon Henrietta Entwhistle-Kikkenhymer (Flamin’ H.E-K) again. She can help us work our way through it. (Important note: Once we have experienced the wonders and results of just saying it out loud, we’ll no longer need neither Flamin’ H.E-K, nor ‘The Sly.’ It just happens on it’s own just by saying it out loud. That type of courage and trust only comes from experience).

AWAKENING (Steppingstone 5 – Law of Focus)

From here on, the feelings of pain and sadness start to fade. It may take a while for us to notice, but there’s a light that’s forming at the end of the tunnel. We start to laugh and smile again, and our thoughts shift from hopelessness to thinking of ways to move forward with a new plan, or honouring our loved one. This fifth steppingstone is where we start turning the ship around. It starts to get better from here.

It’s always great if we can set an intention of what it is that we CHOOSE to experience. Here’s a great neutral one for many situations, but you can be more specific if you feel that it’s necessary. We call upon our ‘I AM:’

‘I choose to experience a profound healing and understanding beyond my wildest expectations.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. And so it IS.’

Clarence Kokzuh-Poffen who’s job is ‘clearing limitations,’ is swift to add that we need to be certain of our beliefs. After all, whether we believe that we can, or whether we believe that we cannot… we shall be right. What we think about, we bring about. The universe merely matches our vibration and gives us more of the same, so we need to be sure that we see our glass as more than half-full.

REINVENTION (Steppingstone 6 – Law of Cycles)

At this steppingstone, we begin to realize that we’re now on the upward turn, things start looking better and it’s a lot easier for us to feel hopeful and more optimistic. Sheamus Sherman Schnouzer-shoes smiles because it’s on this sixth steppingstone that we get more energy to go about our daily business, rebuild our confidence, and be able to focus and start getting our life back on track.

If we lost touch with friends/family, the sixth steppingstone is where/when we reconnect. There becomes meaning in our life again. It is this steppingstone (through our reinvention), that Sheamus Sherman Schnouzer-shoes reveals that we turn it around and start taking ACTIONS to move forward, rebuild and push through.

LOVE AND ACCEPTANCE (Steppingstone 7 – Law of Change)

The epiphany of steppingstone 7 is realizing that accepting the change/loss doesn’t mean staying stuck, nor forcing ourself to feel ‘happy’ about it either. No sir, there’s a deep sense of peace that happens due to our coming to terms with the change/loss (it just is).

Reginald Doodledopper Swaybuckle III (Joy-Finder), tells us that while we still feel the occasional moment of sadness (when it resurfaces in our mind), but the sadness doesn’t last long, and we’re soon able to accept it and move on again. Painful reminders of our change/loss begins to turn to fond memories that we cherish and/or find joy in. Steppingstone 7 is about acceptance and hope.

REFLECTION & GRATITUDE (Steppingstone 8 – Law of Cause & Effect)

This is where Edgar ‘Ernest’ Nettlebelly VIII invites us to be our observer -self (not our person). On steppingstone 8, he has us replay our entire process as though we’re watching a movie (with love and gratitude) to discover the lessons and blessings rather than as ‘something that happened to us’ (without the emotions). This is to reveal and accept all of the reasons to be grateful (one of our most powerful emotions, next to love).

Edgar ‘Ernest’ Nettlebelly VIII invites us to compare how much worse that it could have been by comparison to our own experience. Notice how much further ahead we are by comparison to when we started (The gifts of the new-found strengths, the wisdom gained from the experience that books cannot teach. The strength of character achieved).

MOVING FORWARD

The purpose of Edgar ‘Ernest’ Nettlebelly VIII’s system is to enable us to overcome the FEAR of the unknown. When we have an understanding that it is just a process that we need to go through, that it can still end in a timely manner and that we can embrace this strategy, it starts to become familiar territory.

Add to that, the realizations that:

Everything happens FOR us and not TO us
We end up further ahead than when we first started
We expect to be either lifted or gifted
Now that we’re familiar with the various Coddle-Poppers, the more times that we practice this, the quicker and easier the process becomes (this does NOT mean that we’ll like it initially, because the initial shock is still a shock).
Viewing as third person (like a video game, our person is a player in the game), allows us to observe without emotion.
Be ‘Of God’ (full control and accountability for our own hologram)

THE SECRET SAUCE – HOW THE MAGIC HAPPENS

There are four key elements as to how/why this Emotional Processing System works so effectively. We already understand that everything happens FOR us, so therefore there becomes a very good reason as to why we NEEDED this experience (There’s always a gift/lesson/blessing of sort).

If our life was like a computer game (which it uncannily is), the main protagonists would be our person, the observer, and our future-self (all of them being ‘ourself’).

Protagonists are the lead characters in a story plot who often face significant obstacles, and undergo personal transformation through their actions, decisions, and pursuit of a core goal. We shall now explain them in more detail and why:

OUR PERSON

Just like a computer game, our ‘Higher-Self’ chose ‘our person’ to be the player in this ‘life experience’ here on Earth (Energetic Alternative Reality (of the) Terraforming (of this) Hologram… but that’s a story for another day). We already know that although our higher-Self is always with us, it is actually part of Source/God/Creator (insert Divinity here).

THE OBSERVER

This is the clever part that we were never taught. The part of us that drives our person (our mind), can and usually is found inside the person (down in the trenches, soaking up all of the experiences and subsequent emotions). Emotions are usually our triggers. They cause us to put labels on them (good, bad, etc). Emotions take the experience from ‘it just is’ to us having an ‘absolute nightmare.’

What we haven’t realized yet, is that our mind does not have to stay inside our person. It is very capable of rising above our person to our higher-Self. The further we rise above our person, the clearer the bigger picture becomes and the less our emotions drive us (to the point on having zero effect).

By rising clear of our emotions, our resistance fades, and our triggers disappear. The observer is the person with the controller, who is able to still manipulate our person (the player), without having skin in the game (emotions).

The observer is able to accept information from both our person and our higher-Self. The closer we are to our person, the more intense our emotions. The closer to our higher-Self, the more we’re aware of our vibration. It is our vibration that the universe responds to and matches our resonance with a like for like vibration (The Great Law).

OUR FUTURE-SELF

With ‘The Great Law’ in mind, here’s where our future-self earns its worth (but only after we’ve discovered and understood our lesson/gift/blessing which we shall cover next). Our mind does not know the difference between what is a thought, and what is actually real. To the mind, it’s ALL real!

The principle of the ‘Great Law’ is that what we put out, we get back. The super-power of our future-self is that it is NOT impeded by the emotions of our person (unless we allow it by being ‘in’ it rather than the observer). Our future-self is able to bypass the focus of pain and/or misery of our person, and concentrate its attention on just what it is that we DO wish to experience.

This shift is what the Great Law will respond to. It is our future-Self who will mimic all of the feelings that we shall have (as though we already have it in the present ‘NOW’ moment), and the universe just says: ‘Your wish is my command,’ and subsequently gives us more of the same! But this time, it’s what we really do want!

This sounds too good to be true, and you’d be correct, so let’s talk about it…

THE LESSON/GIFT/BLESSING

Do you remember that we began it all with ‘everything happens FOR us?’ That means that it’s time for us to either ‘learn’ or ‘grow.’ There’s a GOOD reason for us to NEED to step up to the next level (like in a computer game). That means that somewhere in the madness that unfolded, there was a reason (a point to it all), and that’s what we need to discover in Steppingstone 8 if we’re to avoid repeating it again until we do.

The best place to start is by looking for a pattern. We crack that, and that’ll be the end of that nonsense (A thought creates an emotion, that emotion influences what we do, our actions create an outcome, and the outcome then feeds back into the next thought we have about ourself and life).

That being said, sometimes the experience may have been to test our strength of character to be able to see that we’re strong enough to be prepared for the next level up (Bobby Blowhard-Noseworthy). After all, there’s little point is attempting to swim across a massive lake if we still need to use armbands (flotation-aids).
