Facing what we previously couldn’t
With similar energy to the Full Moon,
summer is a potent time to rest, reflect and review
on everything you’ve traversed and learnt thus far in Life.
For many, including myself
a lot has been surfacing…
Fear, anger, anxiety
Causing us to fight, run or freeze
and remember what we’d rather forget
But reality is simply a mirror
and if we’re discerning,
we’ll SEE…
They’re merely ECHOS
old feelings rising to the surface
rooted in the past
Present circumstance is unearthing
What was dormant in our psyche
Or hidden within the tissues
Because it’s ready to be released
We are strong enough
Open and ready now
To face what we previously couldn’t
And in that facing
(What I call witnessing)
—of our fears and feelings,
without the need to fix, blame, silence or control—
That we find freedom
and peace.
Surrender is not passive
Nor resignation
But an active willingness
to ABIDE:
To be with
Remain in
And accept…
We don’t have to like it.
We must simply allow it….
This is the first step
to cultivating compassion
— or self love —
… On the road to healing
… In reparenting our inner child
… And regulating our nervous system.
Like life, it’s interconnected.
“The work” on many levels.
What is asking to be seen and witnessed in your Life?
What emotions or memories are rising to the surface?
Slow way down
Accomplish far less
To first feel it
Then be with it
And remain in it
With no where to go
And no one to please
But yourself and the moment
With practice
And patience
It will come alive
And so too will you!
When all feels trying
Keep showing up
Do what needs to be done
You are preparing and building the foundation
That will hold you
And centre you
As your journey unfolds.
Your destiny is being born.
Love on The Way,
Kailey
