23. You're at an edge...now what? A perspective shift. Heart Portal

ICYMI last week, I introduced the topic of your edge. The edges inevitably meet on our journey of becoming.
What I mean by journey of becoming is this: I believe, we are here, it is our purpose to live fully expressed. To be so fully who we are and honor your you-ness that we couldn’t fathom living any other way.to be this fully expressed, embodied version of self, we will be asked to peel back the layers of who we’ve been taught, conditioned or shamed into being.
It’s to move from misaligned to aligned.
Good news/bad news – I’m not entirely sure if we ever truly arrive at our most fully-expressed self. That the journey is just that - a journey. One we deepen into and One where we constantly lose our way and find our way back over and over again.
On this journey we (every single one of us without exception) inevitably meet edges – they are sharp, prickly and usually indicate we’ve outgrown or become misaligned with something.
As human beings, our nature is to grow, to be in motion. Edges guide us and highlight what needs to be looked at for us to proceed. It shows us what we're outgrowing and offers an invitation to move back into alignment.
But, for some, edges seem like dead ends. At the edges you are being given a choice – to sit on the edge your whole life, or to allow yourself to go to the depths to move forward into the unknown? Your future self, this version of you you desire to be is waving you into the pool but your dick brain wants you to stay where you are. So what do you do?
Do you succumb to the resistance and stay where you are – being thrashed by life or do you step courageously back into alignment?
Last week, my invitation to you was to start getting curious about when and where edges arise. You can’t change what you don’t know. I.E. Awareness is the first step to making intentional shifts.
I invited you to get acquainted with where the edges in your life are, how they present, what they feel and look like so that you know the resistance or struggle you are feeling is in fact an edge. Now what. What do you do when you are faced with the stickiness of life, an edge that feels so sharp an uncomfortable, when you feel hopelessly stuck - WTF do you do?
That is what we explore in today's episode. And I give you some homework (heart work I call it) for the next time you meet an edge.
If this is something you want to go deeper on, I invite you to join us inside The Heart Portal Digital Studio.
Breathwork has been one of the most powerful tools in my toolkit for meeting, and pushing past the edges that I’ve met on my journey. We meet for live online breathwork sessions 4x per month and can access hundreds of recorded session ranging from 90-seconds to 75 minutes inside the digital portal.
If you are unsure if breathwork is for you, I have a free 5 day breathwork challenge to get your feet wet with the practice.
If this episode resonated with you, it would mean the world to me if you could subscribe and leave a review as it goes a long way in this podcasting world!
