Hi my loves,
I want to share some words of encouragement this week.
Maybe it's what I need to hear - maybe you do, too.
I also saw that we're in a difficult time of the year (astrology- and planets-wise), but I don't know if I subscribe to that.
I do feel it though.
If it's not just me, and you feel more fear or doubt about your mission, your work, your path, this may help you.
First of all, you are stronger than you think.
The feeling of being at your limit is often a warning signal, not a measurement of your remaining capacity.
You usually have more in the tank than your mind tells you (perceived limit).
So if you feel like you're done, you're only at, like 40% of your actual capacity.
Secondly, if you feel overwhelmed by your vision and the tasks on your plate are too much, don't be scared of losing momentum.
Perhaps the thing you need to maintain isn't output momentum but identity momentum.
You don't have to be at your 100% commitment every day. Be at your 100% of your chosen identity. Even when resting you are a person who continues building this, even when today is small.
Lastly, sometimes we hold the vision, but other times the vision holds us.
I have to keep reminding myself that I want it because it's for me.
And if it feels a bit to big now and my current way of pursuing the big thing requires too much mobilisation for too long (from my nervous system point of view), I can rest but keep my vision on the horizon as North Star.
Leading me forward, even in my restful state. Always there, always promising that all is well.
Don't be afraid to drop into your body and hear with your senses what's going on there.
There is a narrative, interpretation there.
But you own the story you choose, not the interpretation you cannot control.
Flexible enough to adapt. Strong enough to withstand.
It may seem mental, but it's not - it's somatic.
And this approach is what grounds you in safety - even if planets move out of peaceful alignment, or the external circumstances seem to be testing us at every turn.
I hope these few words lift you up just ever so slightly - this will do for now.
But if you want more, I talk more about this and how to ground yourself in safety at all times in the video linked below :)
