So Many Questions! Do You Have The Answers?

Everything we experience is a lesson to be learnt. Are you learning these lessons quickly or do you find that you need to revisit some things over and over again. How long does it take until you realize that you are on this path and how long before you realize that you play a huge part in orchestrating these lessons. That your actions, your thoughts are what create your reality. That your own inner guide, yes that inner voice is trying really hard to be heard.

But are you listening?
Do you know how?

I write a lot about that gut feeling, that feeling you get when something just does not feel right or that feeling of butterflies in your stomach when you get super excited or nervous. Our bodies are constantly trying to communicate with us, to send us messages that will ultimately guide our way. But we spend so much time listening to external advice, seeking external knowledge. We give a lot of money to people to tell us what to do.

But deep down we know what to do. We need to find the time to sit still, to listen to ourselves, to get to know ourselves, to get to know our bodies. We once knew all this, we were so much more in tune with ourselves as children, but as we grew up we were continuously told that in order to learn we had to listen to others. To stop day dreaming and listen to what we were being told.

We were being told to turn off our inner hearing and learning.

What is your relationship with yourself?
How do you feel about yourself?

Do you believe that the world is out to teach us, to educate us and aid us in becoming better people. That what you put out into the world is what you receive. That in order to be happy, we have to put in the time and effort to understand that which really makes us happy.

What makes you happy?
What do you need in your life to be happy?

But then why always such an emphasis on being happy, we have so many other emotions within us. We are not just made up of one emotion, we are so much more that that. It is so unrealistic to think that we should be happy all the time, we need our sadness to help us understand and move on. We need our anger to motivate us and help us create. We need fear in order to recognize that we need to change things in our lives. All of these emotions are essential parts of us, surely in order for us to be well balanced we really need to embrace them all.

There is so much information out in the world today about improving ourselves, so many people seem to have the magic wand in which to improve our lives for us, and usually at a price too. I am all for us wanting to enrich our lives in wanting to become better people, but where does it stop. What is really important. We are so uniquely different, so diverse and wonderful in our own way, if we all under went intense self help courses would we all come out the same, would we wash our uniqueness away?

If we really want to bring about change, first we have to learn to listen, listen to our selves and hear that voice, that inner voice calling out to be acknowledged, to be loved.

Beautiful. All week there has been synchronity around attention for me .. attention to my partner, my breath, the land, the sky. Where i choose NOT to put my attention seems just as important. And this attention to self beneath it all..

But deep down we know what to do. We need to find the time to sit still, to listen to ourselves, to get to know ourselves, to get to know our bodies..

So rare is this in a world that begs and demands!!!

thank you @riverflows, I am remaining myself every time I write these posts they are my gentle reminder at self love. XXX So glad I can reach out to others as well with this message x

A breath of relief. Thanks for reminding me to listen to my body. I think that when we would all hea,l we would become more authentic but not the same. We are just not created the same even though we have been created equal.

thank you Clara, I love to hear what others think, I do worry sometimes that we listen too much to others and not enough to ourselves xx

Some lessons I prefer to learn over and over and over and over and over. And even when I'm sure I'm sure, maybe I'll just check one more time to see.
