These past two weeks I’ve had the honor to be a guest on Rose Cole’s beautifully transformative and life changing High Priestess Training Series. This is a series of calls Rose has created for free (you can register for all of the call recordings and future calls by clicking here). By working with Rose, listening to her and seeing that she is a true example of feminine wisdom, knowledge and the conscious revolution, I feel so lucky to be on this path.
It got me thinking about my own life and about you! We are certainly all on this journey together. How about answering some of these questions for yourself.
–What would it take for you to be fully on your path? What does that path look like?
–Do you know your purpose, the thing that lights you up and gets your heart pumping with excitement and bliss? If so, what is it?
–Who would you spend your time with? Your partner? Children? Family? Friends? Colleagues? Pets?
–In a perfect world what would you look like? How would you look, act or be different if you could at all? Lose 10 pounds? Clearer skin? More confidence?
–If you had all of the money in the world, really think about it. Feel this in your bones. If you were set, carefree and financially free what would that feel like to you? Would you change jobs? Would you buy a house in France? Would you stock the fridge full of delicious foods or better yet, get a personal chef? This isn’t about being ‘greedy’ this is about claiming your place in this world… How does it manifest itself in your dream of all dreams?
I love these questions. It is so easy to get caught up in the day to day negativity. ‘The grind’ of daily life. Try creating a list of questions like these and journal about them. If you don’t think about your dreams how can they come true?
How Does Self Sabotage Appear for You?
I think this is a great time to get you thinking about what is holding you back? I’ll be honest, I know alot of women, myself included who have a happiness cap. There is a certain amount of happiness we allow ourselves to feel, to experience and to allow to flow into our lives. Self sabotage sucks! We are going along great, full speed ahead. Our love life is great, we are getting along with our husband and BAM ‘out of the blue’ we get an unexpected bill in the mail that brings us back down to Earth. You didn’t think you deserved the love on some level – you are now back where you ‘belong’. This is just one example of a million and it doesn’t need to be like this.
Self Love Isn’t Stupid or Hokey. We All Desire and Need Love…
Here is the beautiful reality from my trusty friend A Course in Miracles:
Only love is real. Everything else is an illusion.
Whether I am working with a 12 year old or a 45 year old and the topic of self love comes up it gets uncomfortable. We find it so hard to love ourselves. We find reasons for others to NOT love us. We criticize and blame. Judge and ridicule. (All other forms of self sabotage) If you look in the mirror and your vision is clouded by what is wrong with you, what could be firmer or thinner – how is there room in that mirror to see who is really looking back at you? You probably are a woman who really is beautiful, loving, smart, courageous, interesting, fun and who makes others feel amazing.
Action Step: Look in the mirror today, tonight or tomorrow morning. Look into your own eyes. Really search for the truth. Who is this woman looking back at you. What does she like? What makes her feel beautiful? When was the last time you gave yourself a nice compliment? Maybe looking deeply into her eyes you will find the truth. That you are perfect. That looking outside of ourselves for the answers, beating ourselves up and judging ourselves holds us back from living a life of true joy. Can you even imagine what bliss feels like? Give her a hug and see where it takes you. Write about it. Blog about it. Tell you friends about who you want to be like she has already arrived in spite of being unsure what way she will appear in.
I have so much love in my heart for the women of the world. I feel so lucky to be teaching, exploring, and caring for myself in a big way so that I can care for you too. Let’s create change in our lives. Let’s step up, stand up and share our stories of where we have been to where we want to go. If you feel inspired leave a comment or share on Facebook or Twitter. I’d love that.
Huge Hugs to YOU!
P.S. – You really are a rock star!!
