A Journey To Authentic Love
I never felt like I was enough or worthy of anything I desired. I was quiet and rarely spoke up for myself. I was always trying to please others, putting their needs before mine. Life was a struggle as I didn't know who I was or why I was here. On the surface I looked fine but I was carrying a secret. . .
My healing journey began after my mom passed away. I was seeing an energy healer who was helping me work through the depression I was in. Prior to meeting her I had been drinking to avoid the pain, which was too much for me to handle. I started having migraines and anxiety attacks. My body was overwhelmed with emotions that needed an outlet.
Not long after I committed to my healing journey, emotions released and physical symptoms disappeared. I no longer desired to use alcohol as a numbing agent. I felt safe and was ready to share with my energy healer the secret I had not told anyone. I was sexually abused when I was a child. Saying the words was difficult but at the same time liberating.
Any childhood abuse or neglect can lead us to feeling unworthy. We lose our sense of self and our dreams become a distant memory. We go into survival mode and stay there our entire lives until we address the trauma held deep in our bodies. Life becomes about preparing for the next disaster. Living in survival is stressful to the mind, body and soul and does not allow us to flourish in life.
Energy Healing has brought me to places I never thought possible. As I continued working with my energy healer, layers of pain were unraveling. Slowly I was shedding my story and how it had defined me. I started feeling something new inside. It was unfamiliar and a little scary. I was getting in touch with ME. I had lost the sense of safety when I was a child and gave up on dreams because they didn't seem possible. Although I did have one place that I felt safe to play and explore in. The woods behind our house were so special to me. I felt so much freedom and love there! To this day I love trees and exploring and hiking in the forest. It nourishes me and revitalizes my energy.
As my journey continued I was letting go of the pain I was holding onto, allowing the light of my soul to emerge. A natural expansion and curiosity arose. Who am I? Why am I here? What brings me joy?
For me, reclaiming trust in God was paramount and is ultimately what saved me from a life based in fear and survival. Faith takes on a whole new expanded meaning for me. I realize that God is the energy inside me that no label can fully contain. Ultimately trusting God is trusting myself. I now believe in miracles and know the pure love that resides within me as the Divine.
I have value and am worthy of life's blessings. I feel safe in my body. I know life is for me and not against me. I love who I am and experience deep connection with Spirit. I know I matter and make myself a priority in my life. I continue transforming my pain into beauty and inner peace. I am more authentic and self-accepting. I love exploring what lights me up and makes my heart sing. I trust and believe in myself and know ALL things are possible.
Transformation is ongoing as the journey of our life. We are always evolving and being guided by Spirit whether we realize it or not. Transformation is an unfolding that brings about such deep peace and connection. Pure love and acceptance naturally arise. Self-acceptance is the foundational piece of healing. We must embrace all parts of us, even those we deem as wrong or bad. This is unconditional love.
There is such freedom when I truly accept myself. I feel an inner beauty and radiance that I had never felt before. Even though I have felt beautiful on the outside I never felt complete and always needed others to validate me. I continue to grow into this acceptance and love of myself every day. I know having thoughts and emotions is a part of being human and need not be judged. Even accepting the judgment that arises within is liberating. When I accept all aspects of my humanity I naturally accept others. Knowing myself fully allows me better discernment as to how and with whom I spend my time. I have deeper connection in relationships and can clearly articulate my needs and desires. I know no one but me is responsible for my well-being and fulfillment.
I am more self-reliant and do ask for support when necessary. I do not claim to know everything and have challenges just like you but would love to help you find your truth as I have found mine. After all, we are in this together and are meant to support one another through life's ups and downs.
Unconditional love of self is not an intellectual process that can be learned. It is an awareness that naturally expands within us as our mind, body, spirit and soul move in harmony. The flow of energy within and around us becomes balanced and we feel lighter, more loving, accepting and vibrant. It truly is miraculous!
I discovered that my authentic self was the real secret I had been hiding my entire life.
Once my true self was liberated every area of my life improved. It is easier to connect with others and most importantly with my soul, which guides me in every moment. I thoroughly enjoy my own company and am my own best friend. My body feels more vibrant as I make choices that support it. Because I believe in myself, I am able to help more people embrace the power of their authenticity and be the radiant light that they are. Seeing them live more fully and freely makes my heart sing!
My greatest awareness is that transformation does not make me better.
There is nothing wrong with my humanity and I am enough just as I am.
Transformation helps me remember on a deeper level in every experience of being human that
I am a powerful divine human being with infinite possibilities available to me.
I would love to help you remember this too, for you deserve nothing less.
It truly is a profound life changing experience - the journey to
Authentic♥Love
