Expanding Beyond
Periods of expansion can be very scary. Moving beyond our comfort zone and owning more of our worth, frightens us, because this confronts us to our fears and limiting beliefs.
Just recently, I had a call with a business coach that absolutely resonated with me. His philosophy and practice are aligned with the vision I have of abundance and business. It was an eye-opening experience just talking with him.
Yet, when he announced the price of his services my energy levels dropped instantly. I went straight to my mind and my fears about money and self-worth. The shift was so fast that it was almost comical.
But confronting myself to this reality was really helpful for me. It showed me what I truly wanted and what fears were blocking me.
Manifestation implies aligning ourselves with the vibration of what we desire. As such, if I want to work with this coach, I have to raise my vibration to a new level.
This is exciting but also means more inner work. For we can only shine as brightly as the shadow we have alchemized into light. To expand, we must go within and clear what is blocking the way.
Life moves us through cycles between expansion and contraction. We cannot stop this eternal flow, only surrender to it.
If we really honor each cycle when it is happening, we can move through with much more grace. If you are contracting, for instance, you can take a break to slow down, go within and nurture yourself.
When comes expansion you also have to take care of yourself, but this cycle is much more action-oriented. Expansion confronts us with the outer world and anything we need to work on in order to shine brighter.
In this period of expansion, I am very aware of my intuitions and feelings. For I believe our actions are always guided, we just need to listen.
But what I find hardest to deal with, are the thoughts and limiting beliefs that keep me stuck in fear. Whatever you believe to be true defines your reality and limitations. That is why most people never create the life of their dreams.
So in the coming weeks, I will have to get clear on what these limiting beliefs are and transmute them. This is hard work but also necessary if we are serious about creating the life we desire.
I can feel the intuitive impulse to work with this coach. But now comes the trusting part. I must do the work to clear whatever is holding my vibration down.
Life is much more fun if we are willing to let go of the known and step out of our comfort zone. It is scary at first, but the possibilities that emerge make up for it.
There is so much beauty to explore when we follow the movement of our intuitions and surrender to the higher flow.
So as we begin this year, why not set the intention to do what it takes to expand and create the life of your wildest dreams?
Your soul wants this. It is your ego and fears that block you. What will happen if you believe you are worthy and capable of creating anything you want?
