Every day we have the opportunity to grow more full with love, peace, acceptance, and contentment. We have a new beginning, and a fresh start. One where we are not tied to the past, but rather are the creator of our future.
It takes courage to slow down, stop, and to sit alone with yourself in an empty room and face the things that could be holding you back in life.
It takes energy to release the weight of regret, past mistakes, royal screw ups, and failures.
It takes patience for the things that we stuffed deep down inside of us to make their way to the surface, but with time, consistency, energy, patience, courage, and a willingness to look we can eventually see where we perhaps lost our way and what was truly preventing us from living that healthy, happy, and vibrant life that we all crave.
If we don’t look then we will continue to self-sabotage ourself and any chance of success in the future.
If we don't do this deep inner work on a consistent and ongoing basis, then we will get that thing we so badly wanted, we will finally meet that person, get that money, or achieve that lofty goal and then find ourselves right back to where we first started as the thing we so badly wanted was ripped from our hands.
What I can tell you that any fall from grace or any failure, setback, or challenge was divinely placed there to teach you a valuable life lesson. All is needed and all is perfect and you simply need to trust the process.
Later we can look back and realize that what we were truly seeking wasn’t really fortune, fame, or accolades but rather love and connection. We can look back and see that we perhaps took ourselves or our roles a little too seriously and that we were not operating out of a place of pure love and confidence. We can look back and see that we were feeling not good enough or unworthy to some degree. We can look back and see we were going way too fast and never took the time to consult our highest self. We can look back and see that we prioritized making money over making authentic connections with people. We can look back and see that we were not feeding our bodies properly, or that we were completely consumed with how we looked or the vain offerings of the world. We can look back and see that we allowed other peoples actions, opinions, and behaviours to dim our own light and then chose to isolate and hide our true self.
It’s in those moments of defeat and despair where we can’t blame others for where we are in life, but we must look within ourselves to the unconscious patterns, thoughts, behaviours, beliefs, and habits that prevent us from experiencing lasting happiness, health, energy, relationships that equally serve us, abundance, and total worthiness of an incredible and fulfilling life.
A lot of teachings will tell you to forget the past. To just move push forward, forget about it, and keep on putting one foot in front of the other. I would encourage you to sit with yourself and really take a deeper look at what could be going on and then once you've seen everything you can let it go and never talk about it again. Or better yet, look back on your past with gratitude in your heart knowing that your past was perfect and it made you into the wonderful masterpiece that you are today.
I’d encourage you to put yourself in other people’s situations and see how your behaviour or energy levels could have affected them or could be affecting them.
I’d encourage you to take an honest look at what you see reflecting back to you. I’d encourage you to allow yourself to be with whatever comes up for you and I’d encourage you to face it, cry tears if need be, and to ultimately find the strength within you to stand up for yourself, take your power back and own your greatness.
I'd encourage you to allow yourself to grieve and have yourself a little pity party, and then choose to get up and remain hopeful and optimistic that the best is on the way!
That being said we must always be willing to tune into our mind, body, and spirit and take a deeper look at our own energy levels and what is going on inside!
The Sacral Chakra is the second energy centre in the body.
How to tell if there is a blockage:
- You are not excited about anything anymore
- You are not passionate about anything
- You are feeling guarded and standoffish towards others
- You have a guard up and would rather be left alone
- You are unable to focus
- You are feeling insecure or jealous of others
- You are comparing yourself to others
- You are feeling shy or timid around others
- You do not feel creative or are unsure of what your life's purpose is
- You are attacking your body and completely consumed with form or how you look
- You are experiencing low back pain
- You feel stuck in life and not sure what’s next
- You are experiencing excessive gas or constipation
- You are experiencing sexual repression or an excessive sex drive
- You are experiencing an exercise addiction and can’t take a rest day
- You are having frequent mood swings
- You are feeling tense and frustrated
- You are feeling lonely or bored
- You have trouble setting boundaries for yourself you have not been putting your own needs first
The loving and nurturing relationship we have with ourself is everything. When we have a loving relationship with ourselves first and truly have discovered who we truly are, we can show up to the day relaxed, rested, confident, worthy, peaceful, and happy. It won’t matter what anyone else says or does, for we know our own truth, and the truth has set us free.
Ideas to help balance your chakra:
- Remove processed or sugar filled foods
- Remove or limit caffeine, energy drinks, and alcohol consumption
- Prioritize fresh whole foods
- Allow your body to rest and prioritize sleep
- Increase your water consumption
- Stop all heavy lifting and intense workouts and resort to Yin Yoga instead to give your body a rest and to get back into balance
- Meditate daily
- Take a vacation near the ocean or go somewhere close to the water
- Bless and release the past and trust that God will restore all that has been lost
- Prioritize your own needs and take some time to rest without feeling guilty
- Compliment yourself and truly see, love, and support yourself
- Accept what is and where you are in life. With aging comes wisdom and inner peace. What worked in your 20’s and 30’s might not be what your soul craves today.
- Stay off of social media
- Give yourself permission to receive. Stop working, stop taking care of others and only take care of yourself.
At the end of the day this is a journey about self-discovery, self-love, self-acceptance, self-worth, and self-belief. You are worthy of taking care of yourself and you deserve the very best life has to offer you. All you must do is accept it.
