February is the Journey to Surrender

 


Dear February 

I  Surrender:

-   Limited beliefs that no longer serve me - what are you still believing in that keeps you stuck, unhappy, doubting yourself, focusing on others? Ask yourself the tough questions and then surrender it all.

-   People pleasing - surrender the need, the craving for everyone to like you. Focus on liking yourself and creating healthy boundaries

-   Shame & Guilt for resting & self-care - how many of us want to finish the tasks, do the work in front of us at the expense of our health, well being and peace of mind?

-   Blaming others & not taking  responsibility for my choices - sometimes, we mess up! own it. Helps in making decisions and forgiving ourselves.

- Outdated status quo beliefs - the status quo sometimes keeps us from moving forward and doing something new and different. 

-  Self-doubt - Don't let the doubt fool you.

- Judging others, Judging self - February is a call to release the judgement of self 

-  Expired relationships - the ones you know are done however you keep rehashing them in your mind or even in person. 

- Tolerating nonsense & bad behaviour of self & others - what are you tolerating in your life that you know must be surrendered? 

- The illusion that I can control that every outcome - do everything that you can, then surrender the rest, God's will be done.

- Fixing others, fixing "it", Fixing the "situation" 

- Acceptance of what is 

What are you surrendering to this on your Journey?

Peace

What is being of service? Looking upon another human being with kindness and compassion and not judgement is a profound act of service and though such a form of service lacks for whistles and bells, this expression of “service” comes from truly understanding the power of your soul and what it means to “look upon another with eyes of grace.” Carolyn Myss 1.

Redefinition of Lose

Rather than think about what you have to do to change a situation, consider what the situation might be doing to change you. How it might be seasoning and transforming and growing you. You are not responsible for everything and everyone. Allow that as a possibility. Jessica Dore There are some situations that are simply in your life showing you how to shift, how to be flexible, to grow, to transform. You long for change, yet you cling so to the familiar. You are so afraid of what you think you will lose. You are even afraid to lose the things you don't want. The familiar becomes your family, regardless of what it is. let's redefine "lose" I define lose as opening up to a new possibility The day I stopped saying that I lost my house, lost my marriage, lost my mind, things shifted for me The shift has to start inside How we define and relate to the circumstances in our lives transforms how we act. I started asking myself different question...

What Does Support Look Like to You?

  You save yourself energy when you learn to ask people what they need, instead of assuming you know best then acting on your own impulses. Allowing people to define what support looks like gives you an ability to assess if you have the capacity to show up - Minaa B If someone asks you right now, what does support look like to you, what would be your answer? It takes self reflection , self awareness and more importantly a whole load of authenticity to answer. On the flip side, do you rush to support others without them even asking- there may be times when that is required, however many a time we assume that we know what others want and need. The times when we do assume, after a while a feeling of resentment builds because "how could they be so ungrateful?" or "why are they not seeing their need for my help?" the other classic is "they must need my help to show them because they clearly are not seeing that they need support" We continue to assume what othe...
