WALKING AWAY

Walking away from something that we love can be one of the hardest moves to take in our lives.  So often we sacrifice our truth because of our desires.  Making bold choices for our lives can feel impossible when there's an attachment anchoring us down.  

The truth is that if your soul already made a choice it means that the energy is in motion for the shift.  That deeper part of you may have already said I want change, but the mind and body have such connection you end up being at war with yourself.  

I have seen some of my clients including myself hanging on for a year and ignoring my truth.  The issue is that truth gets louder and louder and if you do not follow through the universe will do it for you.  You also may subconsciously start acting out without realizing, almost sabotaging the relationship to leave.  

The first step toward listening to your truth is simply becoming honest about what that truth is.  The witness is always watching and always knows, but often we are masterful at distracting ourselves from what is.  

Living your truth is one of the most important steps to take on this journey we are on.  Turmoil is destined if you do not.  

Of course all of this does not mean that you make decisions whenever you hear a whisper internally.  We need to get acquainted with the ability to pause.  We need patience and mostly to learn to listen.  So often our minds are chattering.  

The only way to get to this place of truth is to STOP!  Creating a 5 minute a day routine of meditation is the best way to begin for beginners.  If you are familiar with sitting still then I recommend 10-15 minutes a day of practice.  Set your timer on the phone for just 5 minutes and simply sit still. You can sit in any comfortable position as long as the spine is straight.  The best way to start meditation is to focus on your breath.  Watch yourself inhale and watch yourself exhale.  If at anytime the mind wanders as it does, allow it to wander and bring your thoughts back to your breath.  Do your best to not dwell on the minds constant movement.  You are taming a wild part of yourself.  Be the witness of your breath and connect with this first.  

This is the practical way for you to become familiar with your truth.  You need to first have the willingness to see it, to discover your personal truth.  Then from here you need to cultivate the bravery to move through the truth gracefully.   

Walking away is sometimes the only thing we can do to create space for growth.  Remember the first month of leaving someone is typically the worse.  Time heals.  You also do not need to be nasty with departure.  Truth without compassion is brutality.  Be kind to others when you need space but also to yourself.  If you are truth you will not hurt another and build karma.  I mean, they may suffer in pain for a bit but if you are living by truth then all will fall into place perfectly.

Remember, pain is good for the soul, it is good for growth.  Staying because you think another will suffer is doing the other person injustice.  Sometimes they aren't brave enough to admit a disconnect needs to happen and sometimes the universe chooses you to work through that truth and be the driving force of the shift.  

Live your truth so that you can shine bright!
