Maybe it’s the mishaps, mistakes and melancholy that lead to the most beautiful and unexpected spiritual breakthroughs.
Growth isn’t always about the gains.
It’s also about the losses.
The Great Unlearning
Like losing the weight of others’ opinions, your appetite for ego, your old self, the past and your mistakes, pleasing others, relationships that have run their course, self-criticism, self-sabotage, and your fixed mindset.
When you ask the universe to go to the next level, don’t be surprised when it feels like life is too hard, almost unbearable at times.
Your strength resides deep within you, even when it doesn’t feel like it.
The universe would never give you anything you couldn’t handle.
Life is tough but so are you.
Stepping into your power
What you can take out of this all, is that if you’re seeking spiritual breakthroughs, you can expect a clearing to make space for new growth.
When you ask the universe to go to the next level, don’t be surprised if people leave your life and tell you that you’ve changed (like that’s a bad thing! It’s in your nature to evolve and transform, not to stay the same).
When you ask the universe to go to the next level, don’t be surprised when it feels like your heart is bursting open at the seams and your soul is shaking.
You’ll experience the rise of emotions you’ve hidden or repressed, and they’ll leave you trembling and questioning everything.
During this time, you are collapsing old stories and stepping into your power. 💥
It’s only natural that when you evolve, your life will too.
You’ll experience the ebbs and flows, the highs and lows.
When life falls apart, know that the future is coming…
So enjoy the ride and know that one day you’ll look back knowing that everything wasn’t falling apart but falling together.
Embracing the nature of life
What would life be without change? The same. Stagnant. Boring.
Often breakdowns lead to breakthroughs. That doesn’t make it easy nor does it feel fair. That is life in itself. It’s not ‘good’ or ‘bad,’ nor is it ‘fair’ or ‘unfair’ because it just is.
May we embrace the nature of life as we do of the ocean waves.
Let us learn to surf and ride the waves, to make the most of what they are 🌊
The chances of you being born are 1 in 400,000,000,000,000 – 1 in 400 trillion.
The odds of winning the lottery are 1 in 3000,000,000 – 1 in 300 million.
You truly are a living breathing miracle.
Smell the flowers.
Dance in the rain.
Make mistakes.
Take the leap.
Follow your heart.
Life is precious and so are you
The odds of being born in this lifetime are slim, yet here you are.
Have your heart broken. Eat the burger. Feel the pain. Start your own business. Get on the plane. Quit the job. Kiss the stranger. Tell them you love them. Be excited over the little things. Spend the money. Go on the date. Feel the fear and do it anyway. Make your dreams happen. Follow your heart. Life is so damn precious and so are you.
Release your fears and doubts, child of the universe.
The stars and angels support you.
When the world is dark, your inner light shines bright.
Life is a rollercoaster of experiences and emotions driven by the highest of highs and the lowest of lows.
It can be excruciating to feel so deeply.
Heartache and pain contrast liberation and ecstasy.
From a spiritual point of view, your soul chose to get on this ride. I suggest this perspective to you as I do with my clients, ‘How does it feel to go through life knowing your soul chose this curriculum for your personal growth?’
To grow.
To expand.
Your soul is hungry for experiences and emotions that nudge you into alignment.
The depth of the darkness and shadows you feel also open the limitless love and joy you can feel.
As you work on yourself and reach the next level in your growth, don’t be surprised if you feel joy and sadness at the same time.
As we evolve and let go of our past self, we mourn who we were.
It’s normal to grieve over the past you, yet still grow into who you are now.
You are allowed to change.
Your identity isn't fixed
The past you that put up with bad behaviour, that gave so much without return, that always needed something or someone to feel complete, that was blind to what was unfolding before your eyes, that self- sabotaged and the past you that deserved better not only from yourself but those around you.
It’s normal to grieve over the past you and to love the past you, yet still grow into who you are now. You are allowed to change; your identity isn’t fixed.
