hey there, beautiful soul!
i had this incredible experience the other day while sitting with a client. at the end of their session, they paused, expressed gratitude for our work together and said, "you seem to have such a full life". this kind of threw me for a minute. "a full life" continued to reverberate in my head.
full? really? my mind forged on, leaving no "lackful" stone unturned. "i have quite literally zero professional accolades", "most of my friends and family live elsewhere", "i'm in the 'start-up' season of my business", 'i haven't traveled for pleasure in ages', "my 'love' life is non-existent", "i still drive a 2010 Honda accord", and on and on. i just sat there for about 20 minutes and watched my mind exhaust itself in its attempt to annihilate this sentiment (and by default - the Truth of who i am).
but eventually, the mind began to quiet, and Spirit stepped in, flooding my mind with corrections and steeping my heart in warmth and gratitude.
"life" is full if and when i fully embody it. when i fully open myself up to receiving it. when i fully perceive it as perfect and wholly, EVEN if it's by many standards messy and painful.
"a full life" isn't felt or created through a checklist of achievements or accumulation of experiences or things; it's created by the richness and depth of our presence, awareness, and appreciation in each moment. it's found in our ability to fully penetrate the moment with our unique signature, our unique life force energy; meeting and dancing with life as life, as its most potent, powerful, and purest reflection.
feeling these Truths weave their way through my being, my body opened and i found myself drawn into the depth of the current moment, taking notice of the sensations of my hands as they moved so flawlessly, slicing zucchini. i penetrated deeper, surveying the texture and unique beauty of each slice, the sound of the blade against the board, the rhythmic patterns that could be found everywhere, and found myself entering into a trance of Oneness, embodying pure love for this small moment and all that it contained. it was quite trippy, haha!
moving forward, i invite you to reflect on your own life. are you chasing after external markers of a "full life", or are you actively present and aware to life, embracing the fullness that comes from being a life? if the former, i ask you to take stock of these markers, and perhaps slow down, cultivate a meditation practice to infuse more presence and awareness into your daily life. and then watch how your life transforms into a masterpiece of moments! you may discover some real riches 😉🌟✨
and if this work calls to you but you are in need of some gentle guidance, The Inheritance is a powerful 3-month container where you will have the opportunity to descend safely into the unknown, increasing your innate ability to hold the fullness of all that Spirit wishes to bestow upon you in this now present moment.
