A highly recommended way of finding your true path in this life is to connect in with yourself. The answer is always held within and found by tuning in to yourself and listening. Our higher self holds the key to this discovery. Your higher self is a very innate part of your being. It is the place within of absolute pure truth, love and peace. It is your true essence underneath all the outer layers that life has surrounded you in. Some of these layers are acquired through joy and some through pain, the lessons, blessings, hopes, fear, uncertainty that is wrapped around you. We are all the same at our very core in that each of us contains PURE LOVE and it is through connecting with this core essence that we find our true path. Our sense of mission, of purpose comes directly from this place. Our ability to do that which is impossible, to go above and beyond our limitations, resides here.
The society we live in and the way we have been conditioned makes it difficult to connect with our true essence sometimes, to know and identify how we truly feel about ourselves and our own lives and to have an awareness about where we are going. Sometimes our own issues, other people’s issues, things that have happened in our lives cloud the channels and causes difficulties and blockages which prevent us from connecting fully with who we truly are, why we are truly here. A good indication of how on your path you actually are would be to ask yourself how at peace I feel on the inside. Often times it is only a matter of disengaging yourself from a stressful situation or choosing an activity that you know will relax you to realign yourself again.
Your path, your mission is not a dangerous difficult scenario. There is no need to be alarmed about what you may uncover when you connect in with yourself. Your path may simply be to live in peace with all aspects of who you truly are. Your path maybe to assist and help yourself and others by doing something that you truly love. Actually that is the real key, your path, your mission will always involve LOVE¦.. a love and interest in something that is so innate, so strong that you wish to focus your attention in learning how to do it better, in knowing all you can know in relation to it. The secret is to follow your heart, believe in yourself, trust that if you want to learn to fly a hot air balloon, that this is what you need to learn to do now in order to follow your path!! You don’t even need to know exactly what it is you are here to do, but as long as you follow your own loving inner guidance you will always be shown the way forward.
How do we do this?
Meditation There are many ways to be authentically true to yourself. Potentially for each person on this planet there is a way!!! For me personally meditation is the tool I use the most. Anything which involves you quietening your mind and allowing yourself to be still from the inside out is always good. Developing a habit of quiet meditation everyday is more beneficial than you could ever have possibly imagined. Meditation is simple and easy to do. The more important an emphasis you place on it in your own life the more you will see the positive effects.
Affirmations Affirmations are also a fantastic tool to assist you in your life no matter what it is you want to manifest. Affirmations when done with true intentions and a pure heart are the best instructions that the universe requires in order to bring into your life exactly what you want. Affirmations are a way of programming the universal energy to manifest what you want into the now. The important thing about affirmations is that you really believe in them (in whatever you are saying – believe the words!)
In my next blog we will explore techniques and affirmations to assist you with this.
