The Authentic Rebel

Ask and you shall start to receive

This past week was frought with a lot for me. I was contemplating scrapping my whole website, and perverbially burning everything to the ground, only to start over again. I sought the counsel of a trusted friend and fellow therpaist, who began asking me questions about why I would choose to do something so rash. Most of my answers fell flat and the resounding echo of "I don't know" was repeated on more than one occasion.But one question that my friend did ask me suck out the most, "Do you still feel aligned to the work? If someone wanted to get a reading with you would you still want to hold that space?" My response to that question was in fact yes. But overall I was feeling stuck, like the engery of my whole project was steeped in doubt. I decided to take a beat. I grounded myself and mediated asking spirit for guidance and clarity. The question I possed to spirit was, what direction do I need to head in? What is my purpose? Well no sooner did I ask, then later that day another friend of mine reached out and said, "hey I would love to book a past life reading with you." I was shocked by how fast spirit had come in when I made the room to ask for guidance and help. The feeling that I was finally stating to live in my purpose was feeling more and more tangible to me.

Our society makes us feel that healers have all the answers and are somehow like gurus atop a mountain. This is not to say that respect should not be given to such teachers. But ( in my view) this is an over romanticized view of what a spiritual healer is. We are all here on this planet having human experiences. Even if you are a healer, and have done work on yourself,( which can be very grueling) no one is perfect. It's all about perpective. To a fish a bird must seem superior because it can fly, but to a bird a fish might seem superior becuase it can swim and breath water. Neither are invalid but their nature dictates a different experience. Not wrong. Just different, each fitting the need of their greatly different enviornments. We are the same. Just becuase I am a healer and have been on the path of healing others (and myself as well) for sometime doesn't mean I still can't been suprised or inspired or learn from those around me. I also have times of doubt, like this last week. But, I want to move forward in learning, bringing in more spirit to my life. I have seen how things can effortlessly align and flow in life, once we are open to it. I know it can be challenging and things can feel scary or uncertain. But trust that on the other side of doubt and fear there is a whole world of possibilites waiting there for you.
