Burgundia,
Threads like this one are food for the soul! I couldn't have described my feelings any better than you did.
I only decided about a week ago that I should follow all the advice that resonated so strongly to 'go within'. I have stepped up my mediation practice, shut off the TV & being VERY selective what I listen to on radio.
I've begun what feels like the inner equivalent of climbing Everest, facing the fear feelings that have nagged at me for too long. Those that manifest as tension in my lower gut and solar plexus area I am learning to embrace whenever I become aware of them, no matter what I am doing.
Syncronicity is a wonderful thing. I just came across a video in a new thread that deals directly with what we are discussing here:

May 2010 be the year I/we face the False Evidence Appearing Real and call it's bluff!!!
