Never sway from what your soul truly wants, it will only end with unhappiness & disconnect.
Maybe you do so because you feel you need to do something completely different than you have normally done before. When really it was just slight adjustments you needed to make (more within you than anything else)
Maybe you sway because of what others think you should do, because it’s what they would do and they know best for you - ummm nope.
Maybe you loose track of what your soul needs because you’ve lost yourself a bit and it’s time to reconnect with you.
Maybe you didn’t trust your soul and you thought others knew better than you did about what you needed.
If you can give yourself some space, Some time to just sit with you and ask yourself what you truly want, the answer is right there. Listen to it....sometimes it’s just a whisper. If you can quieten the noise within your mind you will hear the whispers. The whispers of truth.
Do it for you, that’s where joy and happiness lies. That’s where living is. Doing what feels right for you, being with those who feel right for you, having what feels right for you. Listen to your soul, it knows what it wants. It knows best. Always.
For years I stopped listening to my soul. When I did, I felt tension in my body, I was unhappy, things always seemed like a challenge, life just sucked.
When I finally started to listen, things changed, my life changed. Following my soul meant I had to go through some hard stuff, I had to accept what my new way of life would look like.
People left my world, People didn’t agree with my new ways of thinking and being…. But I was so much more happier deep down. I’m still building, I will keep building, but now I follow my soul always. I now have a few new people in my life, I have those who were ok with my adjustments stay in my life, I have a new environment, And I speak what feels right for me.
I will never sway from what feels right for me again.
So what did following my soul mean and look like…
Leaving my marriage - not because I was afraid of challenging times that relationships can bring, but because I was ignoring my soul on many levels.
Having my kids part-time - one of the most challenging of all was having to accept this part of my life, I had to find new ways to be apart of them as best and as often as I could.
Asking for what I wanted - even if I felt wobbly and with possible rejection.
Writing from my soul and sharing it with others - something I work on daily.
Believing in the work that I’ve spent my whole life working towards - self belief is the biggest gifts you could give yourself.
Leaning into new directions in many areas of my life - taking the leap of faith and trusting it will all work out as it’s meant to.
Changing my environment because I knew it was the right move for me and my kids - It can be too easy to stay in our comfort zone, in what we have always known, however growth happens when you can stretch yourself.
Learning to be ok with being on my own again - The silence of no kids around was deafening at times, yet learning to be in my own company was a strengthener in itself and one I now enjoy. But I do still love having people around me.
Learning to dance ? - a new way of connecting with my body & soul through music & dance. Music has been a huge healer for me.
Learning to say no to things that I don’t want to do - and not having to justify myself, just being ok to say no thank you.
Trusting in my ability - to often we can rely on others to do things that we can actually figure out ourselves, however I am all for outsourcing things you just don’t enjoy doing.
You and your soul are connected. Maybe it’s just a little disconnected at the moment, But you can re-connect when ever you are ready to. To live a full life - listen to your soul, Then start to feed that beautiful soul of yours in the way that’s right for you.
