EXPECTATIONS = DISAPPOINTMENT
Hello My Loves,
I don't know about Y'all, but I have been feeling the energies of resistance and force swirling around in the atmosphere lately! I feel like the Universe is encouraging (pushing) us to really go deep, dig up the darkness, SEE it, BE ok with it, and then LET THAT SH*T GO!
What do I mean by darkness???
For me, it looks like feelings of unworthiness and fear of success. As I dig deeper, I see it is connected to the belief in the "need to be right" which really leads back to ego and self-importance. For me, it is about "mom wounds" and letting go of the expectations of ever being seen or heard in the way that my limited mind thinks I "need" in order to be "good enough". The pattern of "unforgiving" has been rearing its ugly head too.... this pattern is part of the lineage I come from and I am here to end that here, now.
You see, in the family experience I chose on a subconscious (now conscious) level is to truly know what it means to SURRENDER. To let go of ALL expectations and ALLOW EveryOne and Everything to BE exactly as they are without resistance, without "trying" to "fix" anything, and without judgment. Because in all reality (from an energetic standpoint) there is nothing that needs to be fixed. As I see it... It's all about ACCEPTANCE and continually returning the focus to the Self in order to embrace ALL parts of my BEing so that I am able to experience true self-acceptance... which is TRUE LOVE.
Now, I am not saying that the world around me is perfect and there is nothing that I want to change about it or the people in it. What I am saying is that the way to change anything in your environment is to first see how you are contributing to it and how you might be able to shift your energy to support something different happening around you. See, if I am able to OWN my part in this COLLECTIVE experience, then I am able to let go of the energy of victim and release the belief that I "need" to blame anyone or anything for the state of the world or how I am feeling.
When we begin to consider all the expectations our mind and ego hold around how people or things are supposed to make us feel, we will start to see how these expectations will lead us to feel disappointed when "others" don't do or be what we believe will "make" us feel better. When we remember that no one and no thing can make us feel anything, when we see that we choose to feel what we feel in any given moment, THEN, we will be able to change our experience of disappointment, victim and blame.
So, what are we able to do to change the pattern of having expectations?
We are able to be present in our experiences from the viewpoint of the observer and watch how we are choosing to feel in our interactions... with our Self and others.
Give our Selfs permission to make time for self-care (whatever that is for you) and allow our BEing to REST and reset our nervous systems.
We are able to CHOOSE to move out of unloving emotions when we become aware of them by simply acknowledging and welcoming where we are at in each present moment. Remembering that the Present Moment is where we have the power to change how we respond instead of reacting unconsciously from a space of wounding.
We remember that we are able to BE VULNERABLE and ask for help if we feel lost, sad, depressed, anxious, overwhelmed or angry. And realize that it is beneficial to share our feelings with people who are supportive, loving and uplifting. There is no need to share with people that don't speak the same language... let go of the resistance to connecting with someone more aligned with where YOU are at energetically in that moment.
Remember, our energy, attitude, view of the world is continuously changing whether you are aware of it, or not. If you are able to consider ALL options and follow your HEART, then you will never be taken off your path... maybe a few detours along the way, but never lost.
I am sending All the Best to YOU and imagining us ALL standing in our power and confident in our BEing! I continue to connect with EveryOne during the sound healing sessions that I facilitate and send the LOVE within me out into the Universe. I know that physical distance does not stop me from sharing my LOVE with anyone, anywhere, anytime. I remember this in each moment and I choose to do the work and clear and heal each day. I imagine we are all doing this in our own unique way, together.
