What version of yourself are you being called into?

I know for me, this question is up a lot. I feel pulled in so many directions. All of them are valid, inspiring and worthwhile…yet, they can’t all have the space they need to thrive at the same time. 

I’ve been waiting for clarity and now realize I need to take consistent actions that will allow me to lead myself to my clarity. 

There’s a part of me that knows it’s not quite time yet for it all. Part of me can be disappointed, part of me trusts and there are tons of other parts as well. 

It’s ok to have space for many things to be true all at once. That’s where it’s so helpful to know yourself and allow space for all of your thoughts and emotions to be present. 

Through that you can soften into allowing all of you to have a voice without getting stuck in any one feeling which allows you to be loving and gentle with yourself. 

Here are some journaling prompts for you: 

Do you tend to try and rush outcomes for yourself? 

Are you stepping into a new future version of yourself that hasn’t quite landed yet? 

Are you looking to create something new in one or more areas of your life? 

Do you know how to allow yourself to be present to all your parts or do you stay stuck in your head and trying to figure things out? 

The most useful tools I find during times like these are:

• Journaling
• Being in nature
• Going tech free for times 
• Movement 
• Breathwork 
• Somatic Exercises
• Self-care 
• Embracing the elements 
• Exploring
• Gardening/getting outside for an activity 
• Being in community 
• Play and joy 

We can’t always put an exact timeframe on figuring something out, but just sitting in discomfort, overwhelm or disconnection without taking steps towards the version you want to be is painful. 

How can you move your body? Protect your time, nervous system? Nourish yourself? Get quality sleep? Be mindful with your energy? Finances? What you say yes to? 

Eventually it’s the small habits added up that allow you to keep stepping into new even more fulfilled and vital versions of yourself. 

If you need this reminder this week like I did, here’s your sign to choose something actionable to help you find your flow today and through your weekend. 

Know your big unknowns and simultaneously find certainty in each action you take. That allows the space for your knowing to come in clearly and loudly as its ready to be revealed. 

Trust your path and your timing,

With love,
