Living in the present, embracing the void, and going back to comfort your childhood self.
Have you ever felt attacked after hearing someone say something that had nothing to do with you? Maybe it wasn't even relevant to you, but something in their words made your defensive walls go up.
When we start to really understand our feelings and why they are present in our lives, it can be incredibly freeing. During a recent podcast, I heard someone speak about the idea that each of us is our own universe. This resonated deeply with me because for the longest time I'd been trying to fit myself into roles where I had to act a certain way and be someone else entirely. When I heard this, I realized that all I needed to do was activate my desired characters and let this part of me out - the version of me that's been kept inside for so long.
These moments can completely rock your world and shift life in an entirely new direction. Everything suddenly makes sense - no matter how random or unexpected it may be.
Understanding why your feelings are present in your life can add immense freedom and clarity. Acknowledging who you truly want to be can help unlock parts of yourself that have been held back.
Unexpected moments or conversations can bring newfound clarity that leads to positive change.
Living in the present can be difficult, particularly when you are transitioning from one part of your life to another. This period can feel like a void and it can be intimidating, as we don’t know how to approach situations or feelings that may arise during this time. The key is to embrace this void and accept whatever comes your way, knowing that it will eventually pass.
When faced with difficult emotions or situations, we tend to try and ignore them in order not to bring them into our future lives. But by allowing ourselves to feel these emotions and take the necessary steps towards dealing with them in the present moment, we don’t have to worry about carrying them around for days or weeks on end. We can learn from our experiences, grow and heal more quickly to transform those emotions by rewriting the story we told ourselves.
Living in the present means embracing all aspects of ourselves - both past and future - so that we can move forward without being weighed down by regret or fear of the unknown.
We all have an inner child that is scared and uncertain about the future. But no matter how intimidating the outside world can be, you are never alone. You have the strength to carry yourself through tough times, you just need to rely on your own courage and capabilities.
When life gets too hard, take a minute to appreciate how far you’ve come and remind yourself that you are capable of getting through anything. Embrace your vulnerabilities and seek out the lessons in them; be brave, be courageous and love yourself for it.
