Stuck In The Past? Can’t figure out your purpose? Afraid to move forward, or have obstacles you can’t master? Think about your relationships, your health problems, your addictions, your finances, and your overwhelm. Do you know the feeling of being a hamster on a wheel, exhausted, frustrated — just absolutely done? Then stop driving the wheel (it’s going where it was always going). Step off, and take a long relaxing breath…
You can learn from the past, you can learn from the present, but you cannot learn from the future. By trying to avoid the wisdom – ‘the gift’ – from the lessons of your past and your current struggles to move on to a brighter future, you are destined to repeat the lessons—but next time with a double whammy! Stop spinning, be still, and raise the white flag. It’s okay. Surrender is a huge element of healing-much underrated, seldom discussed. Are you ready to heal? Take a long relaxing breath…
The lessons come regardless … so it’s better to reflect on them (without wallowing in your victimhood), to acknowledge and really feel your pain, your loss, your anger, the void. Then close your eyes and get in touch with that living, feeling part of you that you have taken for granted for so long. The body package that contains, maintains, and protects you, that accepts abuse (from you and others)… that body knows all of your secrets and truths and holds a timeline of all of your past. Take a long relaxing breath.
Feel in the quiet space where your body is holding that rubbish – anger, pain, grief … Take a long relaxing breath and breathe it out!
Practice releasing often; then refill those spaces with the things you do want! Stop the negative self-talk and self-judgement and stop allowing it from others. These thoughts become physical and block your energy. Catch and cancel, catch and cancel…
Take a long relaxing breath! Now you’re ready to make a plan for your future.
