I'm Solona Carlile and this is another edition of the Everyday Bliss for the Modern Woman Weekly Transmissions,

Created for the woman who is wildly devoted to choosing herself and living her desired life now instead of waiting until later.

There are times when allowing the space is far more important than what you are filling it up with.

You see,

The expansion that you are hungry for comes just as much from elimination as it does from addition,

From adding things in.

It comes just as much from being as it does from doing.

It comes just as much from the invisible and from feeling as though you're in the dark tunnel of what may feel like nothing is happening,

As it does from all the outer evidence that confirms it is all happening.

There's an insider secret here that I'll share.

What you are really craving is an experience of yourself and your life that you believe all the circumstances you're chasing will give you.

The key to get though is that you don't have to wait for those circumstances in order to have a completely different experience of yourself and your life.

What you do need is to let go of that which you have been making more precious than your desires.

It's the letting go of that which you've been giving your energy and space to that has been sucking the life out of you rather than connecting you deeper into yourself.

In other words,

The experience of wanting it but not having it yet,

The wanting what's not here yet is asking you to release that which you cannot bring forth into this future reality you desire.

If you're really honest with yourself,

You already sense that on some level.

You know because it's incongruent with the version of you who's living that life you so deeply crave.

When you reclaim this space through the letting go of what's no longer in alignment,

You open your feminine body to the flow of more Eros and aliveness which makes you that much more receptive to the impulses arising from your unique essence.

And it's these impulses that hold within them the blueprint to your most ecstatic expansion.

So,

What I want to offer is that when nothing seems to be working and in what can feel like the most discouraging and disheartening of times,

When what you want may seem so out of reach and far away,

This is the time to allow your longing to pry you open even wider rather than close you down.

It's the time to keep choosing your expansion,

Your pleasure and your desires so that you can allow the illumination that's wanting to come through them.

This is what fortifies you with the courage,

The vulnerability and the resilience to lean into all that you desire without grasping in desperation while also empowering you to be with what is rather than turning away from it.

And this is so much of what Tantra is all about as I teach it.

Instead of seeking to change circumstances so quickly to be more comfortable,

We cultivate within ourselves the capacity to meet the intensity of whatever it is we're feeling with absolute love and acceptance.

There we find what we've actually been seeking in everything and everyone else outside of us.

And this is exactly why I created Radical Beauty Tantra for this single woman.

A deep dive into the empowering world of the sensuous and the sacred to guide you back into the sweetness of life and into a profound love affair with self before other.

Because everything starts with a foundation of love,

Embodiment and presence.

And these are the qualities that will allow you to let your desires open you in to the one who can receive them.
