Doing Our Inner Work
When we move through great transitional cycles such as the one we are currently in, it can bring up many old thoughts and emotions we have not yet fully resolved and healed.
Thoughts and emotions are very real, and hold palpable energies. If they don’t have a healthy outlet through which to be fully expressed, they will store themselves in the body and mind where they will continue to ask for our attention.
During the month of June and beyond, rather than try to bury, hide, or look away from any undesired thoughts and feelings that come up, let’s give ourselves permission to embrace and honor these thoughts and feelings, as if they were our children.
Every thought and feeling that activates something within us that doesn’t feel good, is actually a request from our mind for even more love, acceptance, and compassion from us.
Whatever stories the mind creates, it always comes back to the desire to receive love and compassion from us.
When we give ourselves the kind of love and compassion we desire to receive from the greatest love of our lives, the mind will have less of a desire to use unkind or uncomfortable thoughts and feelings to get our attention, because it already feels the love and attention we’re sending.
For every unkind reaction we’ve had towards a loved one, friend, colleague, people in our environment, and ourselves, let’s give ourselves full permission now to honor the fact that our mind was just doing that as a way of asking for more love and attention.
From this space, we can have more compassion for the mind, thanking it for simply doing the best it knew how, and for calling our attention to something within us that needs healing.
And now that the mind has our attention, we can thank it for protecting us and keeping us safe in the best way it knew at the time.
The month of June will be an excellent time to put into practice a more loving relationship with our mind.
This will help to ensure that any of the ups and downs in our emotions, activated by all of the energetic changes taking place, will be more stabilized. This will help us feel greater peace and ease as we travel through this time of powerful transition.
This will also help us not get caught up in the stories the mind sometimes likes to create, which can often leave us feeling helpless or stuck.
Embracing our mind doesn’t have to look like rainbows and butterflies every day. But it does help us have a better understanding of why the mind acts the way does.
And it allows us to develop more compassion for the parts of us that we were unable to fully love and accept before now.
As intense thoughts and feelings surface, we may feel tired some days, confused or unhappy other days.
Right now, our inner self is asking for love and support in this time of great change, and we can give it that by releasing inner judgment, and releasing the need to understand everything that is coming up for us.
Rather than trying to track the meaning or origin of every thought or feeling that comes up, we can simply observe those thoughts and feelings, thank them for whatever message they have brought us, and let them go.
With so much excitement going on, this is a great time for extra self-care and nurturing.
Be open to taking more time for yourself—more rest, more time in Nature, more fun time, and time spent expressing yourself creatively.
This will ensure that these next few crucial months move forward much more smoothly and enjoyably for you.
Until next time,
Miraculously yours,
Emmanuel
