Ep. 25: Accepting stillness, advice for when you don’t know where to go and where I've been | A love letter to whoever needs this
Intuitively Being You is a podcast about all things intuition - connecting with your inner self, cultivating self-love, supporting your nervous system on the healing journey, self-trust, self-care, personal growth, spirituality and sooo much more. I break down everything you need to know to find your inner guide, get clear on who you are and follow your intuition to create deep fulfilment from within.
A personal update, advice on trusting stillness and how to handle pauses in life ❤
When things happen unexpectedly… when they feel out of control… when we seem stopped in our tracks or like we’ve been stuck for too long, it’s hard to accept the invitation into stillness. It’s hard to trust it. We may fight, we may feel less worthy. Our sense of identity and inherent value might be so tied up to our productivity and accomplishments that, in such times, we feel deeply discouraged. Like life itself is against us.
But stillness and pauses have their own medicine, even if the world around us seems to say otherwise. We never question when we’re in times of high inspiration and movement. But, when we’re in slower periods, when we need to be still, we do.
For the ones that need this, whether now or when this finds you in the future, I hope these reminders are the healing hug you need. A reminder that we’re not alone in this, that it’s okay to slow down, to pause, and to rest and do nothing.
Reflection prompts included:
When you feel depleted, let yourself rest. Instead of resisting the stillness, explore your beliefs around not being allowed to rest.
Why is it hard for you to stay still?
Why do you feel like you’re less worthy when you’re completing fewer things?
Why do you equate your contribution to the world with your productivity?
When or how were you taught that relaxing isn’t a good way to spend your time?
Reminders to takeaway:
This time, season, period will come to an end.
You’re in the right place, you don’t need to be anywhere else.
Being is all that you need to do right now.
You don’t need to change anything, your energy or yourself.
You’re more than your list of achievements or tasks completed in a day.
The Universe has not forgotten about you, and everything happens in divine timing.
Pauses and stillness bring unique gifts that become most clear once we surrender.
“Life will give you whatever experience you need for the evolution of yourself. How do you know this is the experience you need? Because it’s the one you are having right now” - Eckhart Tolle
