Everything is temporary

Hello and welcome back. I am as always grateful to those of you on this journey with me as we look to improve our own well-being, find the positive in life, and in turn help those whose lives cross our path and beyond.

In our human adventure we are often confronted by challenges, which I myself have personally been going through.  I have been through anger, sorrow, and disbelief as the world as I know it collapses around me and I venture forward into the unknown. This change is something we all go through at multiple points in our life. The road we are traveling becomes blocked or falls away from underneath us and we find ourselves having to change direction.  This can come from the loss of a loved one, job loss, having to move, through to a larger scale view that perhaps that the world is not as we thought it was.  It was certainly eye opening for me to learn just how many chemicals are in our food, water, makeup, and sprayed in the sky that is not contributing to our health and well-being. That many medications are often to our detriment. There is much that needs to be questioned and overhauled.

Whether it be on a global scale or just a person level, change can bring about an array of emotions, and it is important that we acknowledge them so they can flow through us. We have many tools to assist us through this. We can ground with Mother earth and feel her nurturing and loving energy flow up through us as we breathe in and then visualise and feel the negativity flowing down your body and out through your feet and back into the earth for transmutation as you breathe out.  We can write, we can sit in the sun to cleanse our aura and up lift our mood, we can cry or scream into a pillow. First and foremost, we must love and nurture ourselves through these changes.

During these times of change we can use this opportunity to lean in and trust that the universe is actually working in our favour. Perhaps there is a better job around the corner. The illness that we have may bring about a change in diet, lifestyle and an appreciation for just how special each moment is. A relationship breakup can lead to meeting your soul mate or alternatively you may find yourself rediscovering who you truly are, allowing you to blossom as you follow that which brings you joy.

The loss of a loved one it is never easy of course. For me personally after I lost my mum when I had just turned 21 I spent the following year and a half in a very low and sad space. Less than 2 years later I then lost my sister suddenly. The very hard lesson that I learnt was that even when we go through the grief and sorrow of losing someone, that there are always others left here with us who are still alive. We should cherish every moment here, for it too shall pass.  Celebrate their life and know that their soul is still with you and you can talk to them at any point in time.

Through any change remember that you still have control over how you react and process any given situation. This is where your power lies.  I personally choose faith in God, love over fear, peace and calm. This choice can help us to navigate through the eye of the storms in life and bring new situations and change for the better. Sometimes things that are not working in our life need to crumble or be removed for us to have a kick start in the right direction.

Remember everything is temporary so place your focus on that which you are grateful for. Enjoy every precious moment of this crazy adventure we have chosen to be part of.

I wish you much love and light and look forward to the next post.
