Transform your pain.
Your power is, and always will be, inside of your pain.
Anxiety or stress, in my experience, have a root within our body that is much, much deeper than what we see or feel on the surface. <<
When I was very young, I got sick with a rare neurological disorder that ran my life for many years. I was put on medication and silently suffered. I experienced severe anxiety and hid it from the people around me. My nervous system tried and tried to get everything “right” to protect me, but all it did was cause me a lot of pain and ingrain lots of residual patterns that I’ve had to unpack throughout my adulthood.
The amazing thing about anxiety is that it is very smart. It occurs as a form of protection because our body is always speaking to us. It says: “danger!”, something isn’t right! In moments of true danger (like back a thousand years ago when we had to hunt for their food), that fight or flight response was warranted. But these days, our residual reptilian brain tries to protect us from threats that aren’t actually real. This protection from our body is supportive when there is real danger, but when the alarm bells are going off in faulty ways, that’s when we must dig deep!
In life, there comes a time where we must decide to transform old experience that may be holding us back. I am challenging you to think about how your body has protected you in the past, and how it might be protecting you now in ways that you no longer need.
In order for us each to live a big, expansive life, we have to let go of those patterns. Our body and its capacity to heal and change is brilliant, and we are each capable of fearlessly expanding into new, powerful, and profound next levels of ourselves.
Give thanks your body and your healing. Allow yourself to step into your next layer of light. It’s always there, waiting to shine and bring forth the most expansive version of you.
