Jem's Guide to LIFE Jemiini

Have you ever seen the picture of the horse tied to a chair, with the caption that says..
"Sometimes the thing that is holding you back is all in your head?" 
Sound about right? Yeah, It was for me too. See the thing is...once we expose ourselves to a particular influence for long enough.. social media, social groups,  or environments. We likely become unconsciously conditioned and before we know it we walk, talk and think a certain way and acquire certain habits to match. Part of this conditioning comes with a phantom fact, that certain things NEED TO HAPPEN in order for you to continue to BE.  You do these things, but inside you are heavy.. unhappy and feel like you wish you could just start over and make new choices.  This episode is here to remind you that you can. Cheers to your journey!

Holy hell! what a ride, huh? We have taken reality to the face with "Step Zero", turned our pain into purpose with "The art of suffering", stripped down to the core in the middle of our own nowhere...and now, we're here...we've made it to the best part! Grab a pen, a piece of paper and roll those sleeves up! This is not an exercise for the weak hearted. I'll see you on the other side, my friend, Cheers to your journey!

Here I was... healing... broken down and stripped of all the ways I no longer felt served by.. what a relief! But wait... now that I no longer have these titles, labels and beliefs... who am I? This is where I found myself about 3 months into my healing. I was off social media, moved to another city, and committed to becoming my own source of happiness and purpose. I finished breaking down and letting all the feelings and hurt out, and slowly adjusted to my new skin. It was like meeting myself for the first time and it was here that I came face to face with a harsh reality. Without my labels, conditioning and environment telling me who I should be... I had no idea who I truly was.

"THE SUFFERING" = THE BREAKDOWN OF "THE OLD WAY". I know, I know... it sounds scary, but it is actually really magical. You see, in order to fill our lives with better, healthier and more beneficial people, places and things, we have to first detach and let go of the things that are not serving us. Depending on your current attachment level to these things, you are either going to be ready to start building yourself up..or...if you are like me (I was extremely attached to everything, thought and circumstance in my life) ..you have an extra step...BREAKING DOWN THE OLD WAY. For those who are more solo and unattached on this journey, grab a seat and kick back for this episode. For the rest of us? On we move to the art of suffering.  Cheers! - Jem

Step Zero was big! I'm sure it took a lot out of you to do this and I want you to know that you are SO BRAVE! For those who just don't feel quite ready to jump yet, that is absolutely OK! Take your time and follow along when you FEEL ready. There is no such thing as missing out or being behind. Your experience is waiting for you at your pace. For those who are here now and ready to move, here is the break down and an idea of what to mentally prepare for. THE BREAKDOWN. I know, I know... it sounds scary, but it is actually really magical. You see, in order to fill our lives with better, healthier and more beneficial people, places and things, we have to first detach and let go of the things that are not serving us. Depending on your current attachment level to these things, you are either going to be ready to start building yourself up..or...if you are like me...you have an extra step..."suffering". For those who are more solo and unattached on this journey, grab a seat and kick back for this next one. For the rest of us..on we move to the art of suffering.  Cheers! - Jem
