The power of taking a huge step back from your life is highly undervalued
We spend most of our life caught up IN our life: in our commitments, our responsibilities, our plans, our relationships, and even (hopefully) in working on and towards our goals and dreams.
In all of our busyness, swept up in the crazy rush of it all, and the underlying urgency to get things done, to get somewhere, to achieve more, to reach for more, to breakthrough, and to become more, we can forget to stop.
But what happens when we do?
The noise quietens down, within us and around us.
Our nervous system calms.
Our feelings start to settle.
Our heart and mind become clear.
And then we can breathe – deeply – on every level.
In that space where we are once again connected with our centre, the clarity that we seek starts to flood into our mind.
It is a strange and beautiful phenomenon, the change in perspective that automatically and spontaneously starts to occur when we take these big steps back and slow it all down.
All the small things that don’t matter in the grand scheme of it all fade away – and the BIG things that matter greatly become glaringly apparent.
What is trivial suddenly no longer matters, and we now have the time to not only contemplate but answer those deeper questions that ultimately guide our existence: Who am I? Where am I going? What do I want? What is it that I feel called to do with my life?
Connected to our truest self, we can heal. Find resolution. Solve those pressing problems that keep us up in the night. Overcome the adversities that weigh us down. Gain new insight into who we are and what kind of life we truly desire to live.
We become CLEAR and REGENERATED on the deepest level, on every level.
We realise what it is that we want to define our life by.
We figure out what our true north is.
We see the way forwards, even if previously there seemed to be no hope.
Our purpose can become clear – or even clearer.
We remember who we truly are – and in those moments, we touch our greatness, our truth, our core, our power, our capacity to rise again, further.
THIS is the perspective we so badly need if we are to inspire, transform, and master our life on Earth: that higher awareness from the soul that shows us the way in our human existence… the way to extraordinary fulfilment and a life overflowing with meaning and magic.
Regardless of what it is that we wish to achieve in our time here, we need these breaks. These breathers. These pauses. These moments of pure stillness, recovery, integration.
Yes, it is for your body, your mental wellness, your deepest personal self. But it is also necessary for your life’s work on Earth.
It matters for you.
It matters for your health.
It matters for your heart.
It matters for your career.
It matters for your wealth.
It matters for it all.
Maybe it is time for you to take a step back – a giant one, even.
Maybe it is time to retreat for a weekend, for a week, for several weeks, to rediscover yourself. Maybe it is time to put the tools down, just for a moment, so you can zoom out and see clearly. Maybe it IS time to let go and let things come to you. Maybe the universe, life, your soul have just been waiting for you to make an appointment with the most important person in your life… YOU.
AND…
Maybe it is time to trust that as you do this – as you allow yourself to take your life more slowly so you can live consciously – that things WILL come to you.
Those answers, that healing, that awakening, that fresh idea, that new inspiration… they are all waiting for you, in the silence, in the space, in that much-needed break, in the ether.
All you need to do is stop for a moment – and meet it there (what you need WILL be there).
So that you can feel like yourself again and find the key you need to open the next door on your earthly journey.
So that you can make those decisions, reconnect with your core, and move forwards with flow, power, vigour and love.
