One of the things I love about spirituality and going within is how everything unfolds. We tend to think of things in black and white, linear, rationally, logically. But as you go deeper within yourself and are more aware of yourself as a soul, you realize it doesn’t happen like that. I’ve been seeing it more like a spiral. You are on the spiral, moving around what’s in the middle – awareness. You become aware of something at one point on the spiral, in your life. You keep moving further along that spiral, going through life. And as you do that, you get different perspectives of what’s in the middle. Seeing it at different levels and adding to what you already know, gaining more insight and understanding. Awareness can happen in layers, like peeling an onion.

I had one of those moments the other day. As I was out on my morning walk, letting my mind float along, I got this sort of vision/knowing about my power, more specifically, how I give my power away. I saw myself standing in front of some objects. The objects represented things that I fear. In this vision, I was way bigger than the objects. And then the knowing came – that I’m forgetting how powerful I really am. And in forgetting my power, the things I fear seem bigger than me. But they’re not. They are all things that I can handle and navigate through.  I also got a knowing about how I get angry and annoyed with little things, insignificant things. Anger and annoyance are also fear energy. When I get angry or annoyed with these little things, my focus gets pulled away from what’s really important to me.

It was a pretty amazing a-ha moment. It took what I thought I knew about owning my power to another level. A deeper level. Understanding some subtleties to it. This is the stuff that excites me! It adds more wind to my sails about healing and understanding myself as more than just my physical existence!

I’ve been asking my spirit posse to help me move through some of my own fears and also hold my own as I see fear in the world. I’ve been bumping up against some old fears and I can feel the limitations of them. I feel ready to face them and move past them. To stop holding myself back, to stop playing small so that I can live and feel more fully. To enjoy life more!

We all have fears within us. But I’m sharing this to remind you that you have a choice: to let those fears control you or to face them, take back your power and go for what you want! No matter what that fear is, don’t let it stop you or intimidate you. Remember your power – you have the answers within you and you can handle anything that comes your way. Remember the truth – you are an unlimited soul, bigger than the illusions of this physical world. Tune into that truth, tap into that power!
