So I planned for a big week this week, with two events, plans for lots of chats, lots of of Facebook ads and a massive full moon intention about clearing one of my longest running relationship stories. And, man did I get a big week. Just not quite in the way I first expected. What I got was another gut thing second only to the epic public purge of April earlier this year. Stick with me now, there's love and happy endings in this. In my years of studying energetic medicine, the psycho-somatic connection and emotional metabolism, in hindsight it makes total sense that, if I'm going to intend to re-set a core relating pattern i'd carried my whole life and been metabolising my whole life, of course I was going to "get some gut thing". But me being me and seeing the physical opportunity to have my consciousness squarely focused on that area, I go "screw it", and like a seasoned marine, I go at it hardcore and proclaim if we're going to do this, let's do it properly until those deepest darkest hidey spots are bright, shiny and beaming love and i've re-written my gut brain with new intentions. So that's what I did and how I finished my week. And all for love if I really think about it. Because earlier in the week, I saw, (with horror i might add) with complete 20 20 how much of that b.s. "I'm unwanted" story I'd bought in place of the truth. And this year had been yes a bit of pushing the wrong people away for the right reasons. But then also I realised just how much in recent years I'd pushed the right people away for the wrong reasons. And that was unbelievably hard to look at. Because any one who knows me knows just how thoroughly huge my heart is and ok yes I may be fiercely independent, terribly multi-talented and not "need" anybody, but it's also true that I would move mountains for the people I love who i very much want to be walking alongside because i love them so damn much. Or in this case, move almost everything but my soul from my G.I.T. until I was completely wrung out of the old and ready to be filled with that intention I just set, so that i could love the people i love a whole lot better than i have been able to until now. And literally that love was so strong, late yesterday arvo, I was lying on the couch, so ready to be that love, then too thinking about all this new love I want to bring to the world through my work and how I want to help more people live love, while listening to some of my favourite dance tunes and that energy had me up and wanting to do and dance my head off. Only I had to remind myself I hadn't eaten in a few days and was still severely dehydrated, so maybe slow it down just a fraction love! But that overwhelming passion, that overwhelming motivation of complete loving intention is why I've bothered to write you any of this. Because that very type of love, when it moves us, is the force that motivates us to get up and do great things. It's absolutely essential to find whatever that is within each of us to help endlessly power the pilot flame of our soul purpose and the visions we're here to create. And it's the same inner force that guides us to get up for the lifestyle we love, plus to love and be with those we love. If you want to get out of the endless stress of a life you've grown to detest, or hit the snooze button on every morning because you don't want to face it yet. If you want to succeed in shaking off the chains of a job you hate into the freedom of a self-made lifestyle business you love where you get to do good in the world, you've got to find what that source of love and passion looks like for you. And be willing to love and forgive the crap out of (no pun intended) everything within you that comes up as a barrier to that love. Contrary to a lot of spiritual rhetoric that says that choosing love is "spiritual bypass", I believe, as someone i will always dearly love once said to me, it takes a hell of a lot of courage to go deeper into love and confront all that we have to bring love to on the way. But it's so worth it. To be deeply and stay deeply connected to the passion of your life purpose, to have a reason/reasons that you come flying out of bed in the morning excited to seize the day and opportunities ahead and excited, to have the motivation to carry you through all the tough as hell hard work moments of start up and high end successful business, to motivate you to stay in through the hard bits of relationships themselves, not to mention loving and loving life with the people in your world you love, it is so bleeping worth it. How does love want to move through and motivate you this week, as we come to the end of one year and start to consider the one to come? Until next time, have fun, take care Nat xxoo |
