Empowering our Divine Self

I was reading through an old journal of mine from years ago and I wrote that I thought the biggest challenge in life is identifying who we truly are and then living from that true self regardless of what other people might think of us for doing so. After years of practicing intuitive life coaching, I would still agree with this. We all have "quirks" or differences on how we perceive life.These differences are the divine's way of balancing life by allowing us all to be unique. Often, instead of embracing these quirks, we try to conform to how we think other people perceive life or how we have been taught we "should" perceive life. We have been conforming every year we have been here on the planet. Sometimes the conforming is small, and sometimes it is big, but each time we conform we lose a piece of ourselves.

What would happen if we all loved and honored who we are and embraced and honored everyone for who they are? Some might say there would be complete chaos in the world. To me, it feels like it would create a perfect balance.

Now for the big question... Drum roll, please. How do we navigate our way back to our perfect self, our true identity?

Know that our whole being is driven by our true self, so returning to that self is not a process of creation, but a process of surrender. We don't have to create our identity, we were born with it. It is actually harder to be someone that we are not than to be who we are. We have just forgotten how to relax into our truth. It's like we have been carrying around a heavy backpack that we forgot we were carrying. We need to find a way to take it off.

Start with intention. "I set a deep intention to find, know, love, and honor myself. I open to easily and gently heal and release all the fear that surrounds me in this process." Spend some time with yourself doing things that you love doing. Spend some quiet time with yourself listening to your mind. First, your mind might just chatter, but underneath the chatter is your true voice that given time can be heard. "I surrender to my true self, my true voice."

Returning to your divine self takes time. It took time to get where you are and it will take time to relax into who you truly are. Love yourself through it all and you will find this journey back to yourself joyful and inspiring.
