We’re Being Misled

There's a common thread I see amongst those of us that are in search of change and a better life...

Usually you're already aware that every person in your life is a mirror to what is showing up for you- good, bad and ugly.

You're already dedicating time to self-care each week, making space to mediate/spending time in nature.

You've already processing your emotions that flare up when you've been faced with your triggers...

But you still feel like you come back to the same spot you started in?

There are two reasons for this:

One is your karma. We all have karmic patterns playing out showing us the deeper wound wanting to heal, often our blind spot despite our best efforts.

The second is that the efforts we are taking are only addressing the symptoms and not the cause.

For example, feeling triggered is a symptom of a part of us that is hurt, in pain or unrecognised.

Self-care is required to balance ourselves due to the symptoms of our overworked nervous system.

Recognising others as a mirror is a symptom of surface level self awareness.

People have come to work with me when they have been stuck in the cycle of patching up their symptoms (sometimes for decades) because we've been taught only to find the surface level solution.

Not many of us have been taught to use our own in-built tools to get ourselves out of becoming stuck.

So instead we settle for the band aid promoted as the solution.

My client Dez had gone through this her whole life.

She had decades of choosing the band aid- believing in that all she was doing was really bettering her life but she was stuck in the same cycle unable to get ahead.

After working together, she sent me this message this week...

I get messages like this regularly through clients recognising that the solution is not in doing more but in following the process that creates real change.

The process is straight forward:

1.     Recognise where you currently are at

2.     Let go of what you don't need

3.     Take the steps that will allow you to move forward in the most miraculous way possible

This looks different on everyone because we are all unique on our personal journey yet the process is exactly the same each time.
