Hello beautiful souls.
Today I'd like to talk with you about surrender.
If you've been following me over the last year,
You've heard me mention surrender often.
That that is the key to our freedom.
The key to reconnecting to our truest version.
However often,
That is misunderstood.
Something gets lost in translation.
So I'd like to take a moment to clear that up and be a bit more precise with the definition.
Or at least my intention when I reference surrender.
Throughout my life,
The moments that were filled with the most turmoil.
Were often the times where I wanted the most control.
Because I was afraid to feel it.
To feel the growing pains.
To move through it.
And fear was the real struggle.
The fear of the unknown moving out of my comfort zone.
So on a base level,
When I say surrender.
I'm essentially saying,
Let go of your fear.
Consider your fear.
We are ever expansive beings.
Ever growing,
Ever changing,
Ever evolving.
But often we find ourselves stuck.
On a plateau.
And in our minds we think,
I did all of the right things,
Why is nothing working?
And in that moment,
It can be difficult to see or understand.
But let's backtrack a bit.
The quote unquote right things are usually things prescribed to us by society and others outside of us who have no idea who we really are on a soul level.
And generally,
We've surrendered in an unhealthy way,
Our inner knowing,
Our inner call for the sake of the collective comfort of society and allowing ourselves to be adopted into the collective brokenness of normalcy,
Of sameness.
And essentially collective trauma.
Because if you as an individual break out of that collective mindset that this is the quote unquote right way to do things or the only way to do things,
Then that challenges others.
And for a long time,
This was my own struggle.
Growing up with very hard rigid lines around what was quote unquote right and quote unquote wrong.
But the more I made space for myself,
The more I looked at what was truly happening within and I surrendered all of those ideas that were based in fear.
Fear of not being accepted,
Fear of not being seen,
Fear of not being worthy of the love of those who I admired and respected.
Once I was able to surrender those through meditation,
Journaling and inner work,
I recognized that my own divine ability to fully accept who I am freed me from it all.
And in fact,
It unearthed the real me.
So now I'm able to show up in the world as the unique true version of myself that will change from moment to moment,
Day to day and embrace it all.
So beautiful souls,
Today I encourage you to be gentle with yourself and surrender.
Surrender your fear.
Surrender your need for belonging.
Because if you never belong truly to yourself,
You can never fully find your tribe because you will always misrepresent who you are.
I love you beautiful souls.
May you be able to authentically love yourself as well.
Many blessings dear ones.
