An Awakening is not always consistently glorious.
An awakening can be both a beautiful and an equally uncomfortable process. Some may experience a mixture of excitement, relief and joy, as well as periods of sadness, anxiety and uncertainty. The fluctuation of emotions during these moments, stem from the actual knowing.. the reconnecting with who we truly instinctively are.... an unlearning and relearning of self.
In these times, one is essentially reintroduced to latent parts of their being. There is recognition of a greater force and a strong desire to connect with one’s distinct purpose. Attempting to understand one’s mission and uncovering what one is being divinely tasked to accomplish, can seem simultaneously fulfilling and daunting. Furthermore, if not prepared and supported, learning to navigate through the “uploads” and the “downloads”, feeling the pressure to find a new tribe, craving isolation and making sense of the newness of life, can feel insurmountable.
How do you maintain balance and maximize your opportunities for growth and healing?
How do you lean into the healing power of being “ Broken Open”?
🔸First, be gentle with yourself. As you go through these moments, treat yourself with patience, love and compassion.
🔸Breathe...and know you are being guided and led. There is a source much greater than you. Trust. Surrender.
🔸Take more moments to be still. It’s ok to say no to the outside world, and enjoy the stillness of yours. Reset.
🔸Talk less. Listen more. Observe. Pause.
🔸Remain increasingly mindful of your energy, as well as the energies of others.
🔸Diet is everything. It is essentially all that you surround yourself with. Pay attention to what you ingest...physically, emotionally and spiritually.
🔸Drink more water to flush out unwanted toxins. Water keeps our energy flowing, and releases unhealthy, negative energy. Like water to a plant.. it gives us life.
🔸Pace yourself. No need to rush. Enjoy the process of blossoming.
🔸Don’t worry...your tribe will find you. You don’t have to actively search for it. Set your intention, and allow the Universe to bring you like minded folks, teachers and a community that can support you.
🔸Remain in alignment. Engage in activities that allow you to do so. Stay consistent with what feels instinctively natural and genuine to you.
🔸Be assured that we all have our distinct journeys. Don’t compare yours to those around you. Don’t measure your progress with the yardstick of others. Don’t allow others to define or control your growth.
🔸Honor your creativity. Engage in activities that connect you to the essence of your Spirituality. Manifest.
In summary, know the beauty of the evolution of self, is that once you awaken, you are aware...once you are aware, you have an opportunity to view yourself and your world, through this new lens of awareness.
To experience being broken open, is to be exposed to the Divine energy that awaits you. The Divine energy that is you, can finally penetrate the layers and self imposed barriers, to connect you with your Destiny and Purpose.
You are gifted the opportunity to heal and experience Love.
