When you begin the process of unhooking from the outer world, you can find literally hundreds of places where you have given your power away and drained your life force while guaranteeing the status quo.
Owning our power means claiming the credibility and uniqueness of our own humanity.
We see only that which we are.
Asking “Am I choosing from my divinity or am I choosing from my humanity? “ opens the door for us to experience realms of reality that we may never have visited before.
Claim today as a demarcation; a new beginning where you can regain your trust in love, where you start looking for love, giving more love, and being responsible for the places where there hasn't been more love in your life.
It is only when you're lying to yourself or hating some aspect of yourself that you'll get an emotional charge from someone else's behavior.
When you are in harmonywith yourself, you'll be in harmony with everyone else.
People with hearts filled with love, peace, and compassion live in heaven.
When you are grounded in the present - feeling your feelings, listening to your body, tasting your food, and expressing your ideas - you do not build up toxicity. You digest your experience as you go.
Jung first gave us the term ‘shadow’ to refer to those parts of our personality that have been rejected out of fear, ignorance, shame, or lack of love. His basic notion of the shadow was simple: ‘the shadow is the person you would rather not be.’ He believed that integrating the shadow would have a profound impact, enabling us to rediscover a deeper source of our own spiritual life. ‘To do this,’ Jung said, ‘we are obliged to struggle with evil, confront the shadow, to integrate the devil. There is no other choice.’
It isn't what happens to us in life that creates our joy, but rather how we respond to what happens in our lives.
Challenge the person you think you are in order to unveil the person you are capable of becoming
If becoming your most extraordinary self doesn't inspire you, if claiming your greatness doesn't get you moving in the morning, if you don't think you are worthy of going after your best life, then dedicate this year to someone else and make it your best for them.
Our pain can be our greatest teacher. It leads us to places we'd never go on our own.
