✨ Over the last year I have felt such conflict and turmoil internally and I have been resisting it, trying to let it subside until I feel myself again. I have been sabotaging myself by believing the version of myself that I was, was the only version I could be. That it was the only version that people would love, support and care for. I’ve taken a lot of time to sit with these feelings and I’ve learnt to navigate them by myself. I’ve often felt like I couldn’t really talk freely about what I was going through because it wasn’t anything anyone could relate to. Of course there are bigger more complex issues in the world but for us what we are going through in that very moment, fighting our own minds, will always be the biggest. I’ve come to learn it is often growth that is perceived as this positive light but it is also the fear and courage to let go of places, people and relationships that no longer fit this version of yourself. It’s also a version of yourself that you need to honour and show gratitude for but know deep down you can no longer carry with you. I’ve learnt that it takes a lot to do the inner work, and it’s a constant commitment to yourself to work through it. Not everyone you’ve ever loved or the places that you felt comfort in will be able to journey with you. There is grief in growth, there is pain and a resistance to not want to let go. A false hope that if you hold tight it will reform and fill the new cracks of your growth. Sometimes there’s moments where you feel you are on the other side, that you’ve met the people and sat in the places that are meant for the next version of you, it’s an eagerness for stillness amongst the rapid frequencies but sometimes it’s the reminder you need to find your home within the new version of yourself, for yourself. When your spirit feels precarious within you, have the courage to sit with it, to understand it not just from the surface but from within. What is binding you to this moment, to this feeling, to these emotions. It’s okay to no longer belong within the safety net of familiarity. It’s okay to become the next version of yourself even if that means releasing ties that have bound you 💫💗
