Being You

All of you.

The real you.

The authentic you.

The you that is in there. The you, that knows when something feels good or not for your body, even if you've been taught or believed something to be a certain way, you know deep within, you have that inner knowing.

Our bodies contain deep wisdom.

How often do you listen to it?

How often do you cause separation from yourself and others when you dim or neglect those parts of you that want to be seen, heard, felt? Your body knows and recognises the feeling. The light is within you to shine light into those shadows, for your beauty lies within all of you.

Your inner authority. This is where we are headed.

We are working more and more with recognising what we feel, coming out of the mind and making decisions from that space within and living from our centers. To understand what feels right for you involves deconditioning, remembering, knowledge and deep wisdom. We are forever continuing to evolve, grow and upgrade ourselves, as do our systems around us.

You can recognise how let’s say Apple are always evolving with their phones, with technology, every so often you get a message that you are due an upgrade. You may go and get an upgrade, a newer phone with newer apps, an improved camera and suddenly you have to spend some time with this new phone, understanding how it works, how to use it differently, It's still the same model perhaps but it's new and it's different. Or maybe you decide to completely change the whole handset, model, tariff and go over to a different provider, an even bigger challenge having to grasp a whole new handset and how it works. You may change your number, feeling this change of identity as you begin spending some space with this new phone sharing with others your new contact details. Understanding how it works and slowly over time you get used to it and it becomes easier and then you know it like the back of your hand, until again that message comes in and it's time for another upgrade. Or maybe you keep with your old phone and stick to what you know, eventually let’s say with Apple, the battery will start running out and beginning to slow and then you may surrender to the space of change. A cycle of renewal, upgrading, changing, growing and evolving.

Such is life.

Same with a car and its servicing and mot. You get it checked yearly, perhaps sometimes it might need just a refresh of the oil, other times new parts are needed as the old ones are worn and used or maybe some air in the tyres. But you know that you need to get it checked, it has to be road worthy to drive. You know this as you either get the notice through or maybe you make a note in your diary but you take your car and off it goes for a mot.

So tell me, how's your vehicle, your system? Do you feel if you had someone sending you a message telling you that you needed an upgrade because your system is run down and needs a rest, that you would listen? Or if you had it in your diary every year to go for a yearly body mot, would you be more likely to go? Just like with the seasons of nature, it is essential for our health and wellbeing to attune to our natural cycles, to be in more alignment in what feels right for our systems and allow ourselves and our cells to renew, upgrade and evolve.

Do you tune into yourself so you can align with your nature?

Can you see how this all correlates to us and our systems?

If you were able to align yourself with your nature, your instrument and be in the natural rhythm of you and your cycle, you would begin to tune into your energy system and understand how it operates. You get to know your body and system more than anyone else and you become your own inner authority. You would start to understand and have awareness to feel when it needed an upgrade, when it needed rest, a clear out, movement, what felt good for it in terms of how you operate. Then you get to teach and share with others how to communicate with you so you can co create together in a way that is healthy for you both.

How this can work beautifully is when we know ourselves, we can then respond to what feels right to us. So you may see something about a seasonal cleanse, a treatment that you get invited to and then you respond if that feels right to you and your system. Rather than going with the mind and what the mind had been told it thinks it should do. It's you listening to your own inner authority, inner knowing and choosing and responding consciously from that space.

The energy is always changing and there is more and more encouragement to listen to your inner authority. It’s always been there, the more you tap into your intuition, create deeper levels of self love, the more you continue to unlock all parts of you.

You are already whole, there are just parts of yourself that have been kept locked up, wanting to be open, wanting to be seen, heard, felt, listened to and witnessed.

When we cause separation from ourselves, we are sharing with ourselves, our bodies, others and the world that we are not whole, that those parts are not valid, not worthy. This does not have to be your truth.

You can work with all your parts together in peace and harmony, when you allow the space for them all to be witnessed, seen, felt and heard.

I love the parts of me that are messy, I love the parts of me that are wild and courageous, I love the parts of me that stay open to possibilities, that add joy into my life whenever I can. The parts that play, the parts that love to be a hermit, the parts that live in the deepest depths of my vulnerability, the part that is deeply compassionate and the humorous part. The parts that want to cry whenever I see someone in need and want to help, the parts where I held shame, the parts that felt guilty, the warrior that will fight and say fuck you when I need to. The parts that have jumped before I was ready, the parts that have held on when I needed to let go. The part that knows when it's time to be still, the parts that are always learning and growing and the parts of me that love to express. The magical, the parts that live so openly, the sexy, the dreamer, the sensual, the intimate, the romantic, the giving, the willingness, the dedicated and the committed. The part that loves solitude and being on my own as much as the part that loves relationships and all the other parts in between… I could go on and on. This all makes up what it is to be multifaceted being, an artist. With learning, seeing and loving all these parts you begin to create your own art, your masterpiece, your book, your movie, your life.

I was asked to write 100 things I love about myself and for me it was the easiest task, I'm aware this may not be the case for everyone but I would love it to be.! truly do love myself in all my colours and I want to continue to teach, share, show and inspire others to do the same. Through all life’s spirals of ups and downs you are always lovable and you are always worthy.

‘Be yourself, love yourself’

It’s the best medicine I have ever received and continue to live by. ❤️
