Awakening is awesome.
A whole new world opens up the moment you understand that you are the dominant force in your reality. Your life starts to make sense as you see yourself in an elevated way. Possibilities are limitless.
Tuning into the spiritual aspect of yourself and exploring it can feel a little like being a kid in a candy store. There's so many choices! What to explore first? What's the right path for you? Where should you focus your energy?
Awakening can be awkward too, like in puberty when you woke up an inch taller one morning and nothing fit anymore.
Old habits feel uncomfortable. Negative people and energy become hard to tolerate. Even sounds and smells can throw you off as you become increasingly sensitive.
It can be lonely too.
Like when start to outgrow friends and family and you feel like they just don’t get you anymore.
Or when you desperately want to help loved ones wake up but you wind up frustrated and impatient because they're not ready to go there yet.
You may still be on the down low with this spiritual part of you and wonder what people would say if they really knew that you were into all this spirit woo woo stuff.
And that ever present feeling that something big is on the horizon but not knowing what it is can be downright crazy making.
I feel you my friend. I've been there too. And I've had the privileged of observing and mentoring hundreds of people go thru the very same thing. I'd like to share with you
3 things that make your awakening journey smoother
#1 Your heart leading the way.
Learning how to tune in, filter new information through the heart, and make decisions based on what resonates with you as Truth is critical.
It can save you a ton of time, money, and effort.
It's easy (and very human!) to look at others who seem to be more advanced than you think WOW!!! I want to be like that. I'll do what he/she says.
When you do this, you give your power away.
Please remember that YOU are the authority in your life, not a spiritual guru, a famous healer, or a YouTuber with a million followers.
Only you can know what is best for you and that wisdom is found with your sacred heart.
It knows exactly where you need to be and has a built in BS detector.
Your heart will not lead you astray.
#2 A way to stay grounded in your body.
When you first start to open up spiritually you take in a lot of high frequency energy.
It's exhilarating! Your intuitive senses open, your energy increases and you can feel the buzz of Source energy as it flows through you.
It's easy to get caught up in the metaphysical aspect of awakening.
But you must take your precious body on the journey with you.
Your beautiful body has important wisdom to bring to your experience.
In fact, you can't fully awaken without it. This sacred container is what your soul picked to express itself in.
When you forget about the body and just focus on the spirit you miss out on a big part of the experience.
You'll know you need to focus here if you often feel ungrounded, lightheaded or flakey, especially after spiritual work.
To bring balance to your awakening experience, make it your mission to find a way to connect daily with your body and anchor your soul inside of you. It can be a simple as movement or putting your hands on your heart and feeling your spirit in your toes.
An excellent way to ground is to be in nature and breathe deeply.
#3 A kind and gentle spirit towards yourself.
Awakening can feel like riding a roller coaster. Big highs, scary lows, quick turns.
You're changing quickly and some days can be taxing as buried energies come up to be processed and released.
Other days you're in the flow and the signs are everywhere: 1:11 on the clock, license plate messages and songs that speak directly to your soul.
Sometimes we rush head on into our healing process. And there's an appropriate time for that as we awaken. But remember, it's not a race. There's no trophy when you heal all your stuff and no one will ever be able to fully understand all that you have overcome and become on the inside.
So show yourself some serious love.
Get really good at asking yourself what you need today, in this moment, and giving it to yourself.
Know when to step back, put on a robe and bunny slippers and call it a day.
Give yourself permission to play, rest, and re-calibrate as you grow. You are the most precious resource you have, so please honor and cherish yourself.
You have a super important role to play as you awaken.
Your willingness to grow, lean into love and make positive changes in your life gives others permission to do the same.
You are an inspiration to those around you-- even if they can't quite see it yet.
Your light does make a difference.
You matter.
I'm so honored to have you here with me and I send you love and bright blessings for your journey.
