A New Orientation to Feelings

Happy Monday tribe!! I just uploaded a video around this topic and felt it was important to also write about it in this format as well. It’s such an important concept that bears repeating, and I wanted to share!

Over the weekend my boyfriend and I were having a conversation, and he made a comment about something that happened in a previous relationship for him that completely triggered me. It brought me into a disempowered place inside myself, and I went into feeling very small and into competition with someone whom I have never even met. What he said was something that should not have sent me off into such a spin, yet it brought me to a place inside myself that felt so sad and unworthy and jealous.

I could have made these feelings about him, or this other person, or about our relationship. I have seen how in the past I would have allowed these feelings to have control because I didn’t know how to move through them. I didn’t understand the larger process that was trying to take place. So I could have made the rest of evening uncomfortable and created an argument or become passive aggressive because I wasn’t in my internal power. Instead, I spent the next day processing what was arising and allowing myself to transform the unworthiness into something much more beneficial – the Light.

I really, really, really want to invite you into a new orientation to feelings. You are not your feelings! Yes, we feel them and move through them, and they don’t control you. They don’t own you. They are gateways into bringing you back into alignment to the Love. Feelings are opportunities to allow yourself into more freedom, into joy and into a higher connection to Source. It is always a choice to have whatever we’re feeling to shut us down and not have us move into action to what is wanting to come through from us. I could have allowed these awful emotions to shut me down. We’ve all done it. That’s okay. We’ll allow ourselves to have no judgement with that. And we can also choose to sit with whatever is arising in us no matter how uncomfortable it may feel and let it transcend out of us into something much more in alignment with the truth. The truth of who we really are and who Spirit wants us to become.

So I spent most of the day yesterday being with this younger self that needed my time and attention and love. I could not get to an age of how old she was – and that is another important concept as well. We don’t need to figure out where this came from or how it got there or why it’s coming up now. None of that is important. What is important is that I allowed myself just to feel. I cried in the beginning. I was so sad and my stomach was in a grip. I just sent it love. I said to myself, “I see you and am here with you. Take all the time that you need.” I went for a run and did what feels so good to me – moving my body and listening to music and being outside with the wind on my face. I showed myself that I will honor wherever I am and not judge that I should be beyond these emotions. I have been here before. I thought it was cleared. What a beautiful opportunity to meet myself again, move farther beyond these fractured parts into more Love. We are here moving consciousness forward, so when I take the time to be with me, others can be with themselves even more as a result. When we tak

e the time to anchor in more light, others can move through their feelings at a higher rate. Our intention isn’t to do for others first. We do this for ourselves first and foremost. But the ripple effect is allowing this transmuting for everyone. This is high level, light-working at its best. And it can only be done when you allow yourself the time and space to move beyond feelings.

The end of the day yesterday into today, my cells are integrating a new reality. The statement that triggered me almost makes me laugh now, and I am grateful for the opportunity it allowed me to move through something I didn’t even know was there. I know you have the courage and capability to do the same. You would not be reading these words unless you did. So turn towards yourself and meet yourself with as much love and compassion and empathy as you can. And interestingly, as I write this, my stomach is in grips again, and I sent it love. That’s for another post – when you choose to move into action, the feelings can arise again, and you choose to move into inspired action anyway. So keep going, love all that is arising, and know you are the Light. I am deeply grateful for you, all that you are bringing forth, and know how much I am standing with and for you.

Much love, many blessings, We are Love. xo
