Hi my loves,
We often think we have to work hard to get the things we want: love, money, financial stability, fulfilment, and security. There’s a clear cause-and-effect mechanism we tend to believe in: if I do the work, I’ll eventually get the reward.
This is why we turn into the self-help methods and manifestation techniques. It's simple: we do something for a while (do the work) and then we can enjoy the fruit of this work.
But let me share something that shifted my entire perspective on how we want to welcome into our lives so badly.
I'm a very analytical, logical person. I go for what I set my mind to.
I’ve followed an ambitious path for most of my life, doing what was expected of me (well, sort of). There was always a quiet voice in the back of my head suggesting that I’d enjoy a more creative career - but hey, we can’t have everything, right?
At some point, I found courage in me to pursue the dream. The motivating voice inside of my head had won when I processed the fear and. I tapped into a more intuitive approach - taking one small step at a time..
Now I was on this new path, excited, a little scared, but mostly energised. I don’t personally know anyone who’s done what I’m trying to do. Most people in my life don’t fully understand it, though they support me in their own ways.
It went okay for a while. And then...
nothing.
Stagnation. No movement. Plateau.
How underwhelming. All that risk-taking, all that courage… for this?
And then it hit me like a rock.
I'm entering completely new territory and I was scared. My nervous system is on fire. It didn't feel safe for me to be seen, to receive and to succeed.
Everything felt like a potential threat. Despite all my education in emotional regulation and years of personal work, I felt destabilised.
What happened there?
The thing is, you cannot manifest or maintain a new reality that your nervous system doesn’t feel safe to receive.
If your body perceives the new experience as unsafe - no matter how exciting or desirable - it will resist it. It's unfamiliar, so it is dangerous.
It’s not sabotage. It’s protection. Your nervous system is doing its job.
It’s not enough to want something logically or even energetically. You need to feel safe enough to hold it, to live it, to embody it.
So, if you’re working towards a new chapter in your life, don’t just focus on the outer work. Support your body and your subconscious.
Tell yourself the new story, the one where this new life is safe, familiar, and sustainable.
I share my "Patronus Charm" in the latest video on the channel which helps you raise your vibrations and feel better instantly:
>> The Patronus Charm: KILL negative emotions and thoughts <<
This is the real inner work:
- Creating safety in your body
- Shifting the identity you hold of yourself
- Building trust that you’ll support yourself no matter what
Rest when you need to. Be gentle. Be consistent - because consistency always beats perfection. And ALWAYS have your back. 🤜🤛
I wanted to share this with you, especially now, when things might feel a bit uncertain or bumpy. Maybe this is your reminder that nothing is wrong with you. You’re just expanding. And your nervous system is learning to come along for the ride.
And maybe one of my older videos can aid you in that too, like: SIMPLE tricks for handling triggers or 7 things you should TELL YOURSELF every morning.
Or just drop me an email, I'd be happy to help.
Wishing you a lovely rest of the week!
And remember:
You are brave.
You are loved.
Be kind to yourself!
With Love,
Marta
