The Spiritual Journey ain’t all Rainbows and Ponies!

If you are in the beginning, middle or any stage of your spiritual journey you probably have days when you wish you wouldn’t have said yes to this path. It’s okay to admit, this shit can be really hard, dramatic, crazy, stupid…I can keep going. Just know and TRUST that it’s totally worth it!

You’ve probably heard it a million times now, from your spirit guides specifically (those buggers)…that you signed up for this. Yes you did my dear! You didn’t just happen to fall into your spiritual journey, even though it may feel that way because, in reality you probably can’t remember actually saying yes to it. You may have said yes to just being more present or Reiki attuned, starting a meditation practice, going to that Yoga class but you didn’t realize what else you were saying yes to, at least not the human you. Your higher self was like “yes girl (or guy) you finally listened, I’ve been waiting patiently… so put on your seat belt ’cause we’re going for a ride.”

And what a F’ing ride its been, am I right?! Being so aware and more connected can be really annoying and downright exhausting. The cliché “Ignorance is Bliss” has never seemed so on point. This journey can feel very lonely, especially the more you lean into it.

Long time friends may not do it for you anymore or they may pull away because they think you’ve changed. Old relationships may have to end because they no longer align with your beliefs and vibration. Strong boundaries will have to be set with toxic people in your life, even parents. Allowing your heart to open and expand demands that room be made and old negative beliefs, and even people, be released.

I’m here to tell you, in the words of one of the most amazing self-love journey, spiritual Queens Adele… HOLD ON!

Everything gets better, and even better, YOU get BETTER at pretty much everything!

I’m not saying you literally get super powers but it sure can feel like it sometimes. The best part is you start to LIVE life, be PRESENT more connected to your body, the Earth, nature and all of the beauty that is around you.

So, you do get your rainbows and ponies…once in a while😉

  • While on this crazy ass journey remember to:
  • Bring yourself back to you, go inward as much as you can and listen to your inner guidence
  • Start a daily practice! It can be one thing eg: start a gratitude list every morning
  • Get out in nature as much as you can
  • Find a soul family member, someone who gets it and doesn’t think you’re crazy. You don’t have to do this alone because you’re not the only one doing it

Take care of yourself always but especially when you are in the throws of a dark night of the soul or just a simple crumbling. I’ll write more about this on my next post!

Just remember it’s completely worth it…so that you can show others how to grow and heal, help the Earth heal and best of all, live a present life, helping your soul grow and expand, so maybe, just maybe, you won’t have to do this again!🙏🏽

Blessings & Love,
