To Be…A Cosmic Cheerleader
Hello Soul Journeyers, and welcome to the first blog post of Be & Beyond!
The intention here is to keep it light while going deep. The point is not about trying to go deep, but rather to illuminate what it is that we see when we do, so we can Just. Be.
One of the most valued qualities I have been exercising is being my own cosmic cheerleader. Even though in the yogic teachings we are taught Oneness..Unity Consciousness, there is a parallel experience we have of Aloneness. The unique expressions of each of us also uniquely experiences. Many of us will have this idea that aloneness is loneliness. This is something important to illuminate and transform into Peaceful Aloneness. From peace, to peace. Whatever we carry is what weaves into everything we do and all our interactions.
Humans are creatures of community and connection. If we feel lonely, we experience a life where we perpetuate this feeling and it can only lead to suffering. Pain is something none of us can escape, but it comes and goes. Suffering is the perpetuation of pain by staying in the loop of a story.
These are a few ways blast out of the loop and arrive to peace and inner strength:
Awareness | Frequently check in with yourself on how you’re feeling. If you’re energetically depleted, firstly taking care of basic needs is a MUST. Water, Nourishment, Rest, Stress. If any of these are out of balance, tend to them first.
Feel Good | Ask yourself “What would make me feel really good in this moment?” List a few things, and then DO THEM.
Love it all | Sometimes when our feet are dragging, doing the things that are best for us are the last things we “want” to do. Recode yourself with LOVING each step of the process. This is when we ‘fake it till we make it’ and it’s so worth it.
Tell Someone | Know your safe community. Who can you share with that is going to love you unconditionally and perhaps even nudge you in the direction you are having a hard time moving in? The moment we reach out for help, the universe gives us a big, kind pat on the back.
So here we go. New beginnings. New Moon. Chinese New Year. Big planetary transits (to be covered in the upcoming Moon Gatherings).
Go US!
With Love, Akasha
