Take Your Power Back
Hello beautiful Lights! I am honored to be sharing again with you today some new openings and am sending you huge hugs and love.
It’s been a wild ride these past few weeks for me as the speed at which we can move through layers of emotions keeps picking up pace. I had a span of 5 days where I was pure Light energy after I had a massage with a shaman and was on the table for 2 hours. The space in which I lived was incredible. I am aware enough to know, however, that feelings come and go, and so when the energy started to change, I was able to move with it for the most part. Then the full moon came and I had a trifecta of things to move through. I hadn’t been on the floor crying in a while, and then when it was over, I felt clear again. But the moments of my steadiness and joy far outweighs the sadness, and I can consciously extend the Light out with the grace. I am blessed to do so.
What I am most grateful for is the ability to move with what comes in and through me, and that takes dedication and courage. To get to our diamonds within, to be One with the spirit of all things, takes practice and a willingness to get to the quiet, feel what wants our attention, and honoring exactly where we are. I have spent many hours in my past thinking I should be somewhere else, that I should be farther along in my life, that I should have everything I am wanting to manifest, yet I have come to the (finally, grounded) conclusion that Spirit doesn’t work that way. We can place intentions and hold true to our desires, and then we have to release the grip and hold to allow flow to follow. We then stay open to receive what is for our highest good.
I just had a huge ah-ha this morning in the car after dropping my boys off at school. I got a call yesterday from a parent who said there is an issue I should be aware of with one of my boys. If any of you are parents, you might know that pit in your stomach “now what?” feeling that comes up. I didn’t call the mom back right away but spoke to my son after school to get some background. We then played phone tag and I will call the mom back this morning. I was noticing my reactions to all of this, and the biggest one was seeing how my energy was flowing out and how I was losing power. I had that old pattern come up of wanting to fix it all and having everyone be okay. Whew – that’s a lot to take on especially when I don’t even know this person or her child. Yet I have a sense you know exactly what I am talking about.
So my huge awareness this morning was noticing that I don’t have to fix anything. I can stay in my power, be open-hearted to this mom, hear with open ears, and then reflect on whether I want to take action on anything. I don’t have to defend my son, make her right or wrong, blame her child or mine. I can be an open space and none of it has to stick. This is huge for me. Each and every person has their own perception, and it is not my job to change hers or anyone else’s. What is my job is to honor my power, my level of awareness and speak my truth when I feel called to do so, on my terms and in my timing. And most importantly, I can be a space of Love that honors her wherever she is on her path.
Not so ironically, my favorite musician Nahko is back in town this weekend to wrap up his “Take Your Power Back” tour. There are many, many, many situations and moments in our day that take us out of alignment with our soul if we are not conscious about it, and knowing how to take that time to get back into our true power is vital and critical. With so much rapid expansion in consciousness right now, if you don’t allow yourself the space to breathe, it only becomes more and more difficult to find your true North. And your voice, your true voice, needs to be heard in all its grounded power.
Again, not so ironically, I opened up my book of Lao Tsu and landed right on this passage. I invite you to see where you can today personally take back your power, lean into how you can know yourself better, know that you are more than enough, and have the courage to shine your Light even brighter.
Standing with you with open heart.
Much love, many blessings. xo
