How is your Spirit feeling?
(Exercise Below)
We tend to forget about the spirit being of ourselves when we are moving through life so quickly.
The physical body is the vessel that propels us forward, and gets us up and moving, but if you were to pause what would it bring to the surface?
With everything we do, our spirit seeks to be heard. It’s the part of you that becomes sluggish internally, it’s the one who ignites the feeling of happiness, bliss, anger, etc.
When it’s off balance the rest of the physical body senses it, the ‘spirit you’ is the first to become easily triggered, It senses all that comes, good, bad, happy, sad… the in-between.
If we move too much and keep moving so as not to focus on things, to feel things, etc… the body becomes depleted. It’s carrying a heavy load while not being able to fully regrow. Stifled by the broken limbs, the excessive dirt, and lack of light.
It’s up to you to nurture your spirit the same as you nurture your body. Fertilize, weed, replant, and watch the growth.
Try a small exercise for me!
Take your hands and place them over your heart, one on top of the other. Close your eyes and just breathe. How does it feel to just be still? How does it feel, to feel your heart beating in this moment of stillness?
Does your mind wander to other things, all the things that are going on with you in your world? Are you able to feel your breath going in and out while quieting your mind? Ask yourself, “How am I truly feeling?” What do I need to shift?”
Are you able to feel the lightness or heaviness of your spirit? Are you able to move through some of these feelings and get yourself to where you feel the unwanted energy shift out; feeling a new sense of calm or release?
Relaxing your mind, reminding yourself of your truth, and your power, releasing what doesn’t serve you, bringing words of affirmation to your being, talking yourself through the feelings of uncertainty, fear, and anger, while replacing them with strength, I am worthy, this too shall pass.
A reminder that with all we are experiencing, we need to take these moments of stillness to reconnect, remind yourself this will not be the future if we take time to declutter the spirit to give it room for growth.
Tune in and do this a few times a day starting out and then utilize it at least once a week to just have a check-in with yourself and listen to those answers and adjust accordingly.
