You can shift your life from right where you are, right now. It's easy to blame our circumstances and past experiences for our lack of achievements, or personable qualities.
Each moment is new, and the next is unknown. We try so hard to control our circumstances, with our limited knowledge. But life knows how to challenge our ways of being and reflect on our current sense of self.
Our circumstances, our past experiences, our identities or the qualities of our nervous system are never stagnant. We are never defined by them. They are constantly changing based on our conscious choices. At every moment, we have a choice to respond in a way that aligns with the kind of person we aspire to be.
Each circumstance is an invitation for us to let go of all the preferences that our mind has adapted, to leap into and make way for new experiences. Each time we let go of a preference or an ideal, our experience feels lighter in our nervous system. And life reveals to us what it means to trust it and surrender to the larger plan.
Each time a circumstance sets off a trigger, it is an indication for us to be present with the wound beneath it. When the past wound feels seen, heard and addressed, it ceases to control your life's experiences. You can now meet life with an open heart, blind trust, and carefree honesty.
