Conversations with my Soul | ‘Loosen your grip’ | July 2021

The Challenge

‘Loosen your grip’, let go of the things that are not serving you, stop trying to control the situation, surrender to the flow of life and ‘let god in’.

What are you afraid of losing?

My identity. Losing myself. I have been feeling like a change is coming or rather something needs to change. I am not in alignment, my light has dimmed and my life situation is no longer giving me joy and the sense of purpose and contribution that I crave. And so I feel a bit lost and unfulfilled and I am trying so hard within myself to make it work, to turn the situation around. There is always some light and I am holding on so tightly for fear of an ending that I do not want. If this ends who am I? What will become of me? (It might sounds dramatic but it’s a true feeling and it’s ok to express it). I am exhausted, that it also true.

The challenge is to recognise that the universe has your back, ‘everything is working out for you’. You can leave some space for ‘grace and god to enter’.

What can you let go of to lighten the load?

It may end, it may not end. What is probably more certain is that there will be a change. But you can breathe through it, you are not alone in it, ‘Big Magic’ [Elizabeth Gilbert] - creativity - is at work and you will get through and see the sun again.

The Message

‘You will survive this’. ‘New solutions and beginnings’ are divinely yours.

You may not be able to perceive the solutions to the situation. It may be beyond your current level of consciousness, but the solution is there. For now all you need to do is ready yourself to receive.

How can you ‘shift your energy or outlook’ to receive the signs and support from the universe?

Next Actions

Do you feel like you just want to be alone? I am ok in my own company mostly and I know I am a bit of a home body. Introverted. But even so we all need community, we all need ‘love, company and support from other’. You are not alone and you should not be.

Do not isolate yourselves from others in your life. Reconnect. Reach out to the people in your life, your family, your friends your colleges. Physically. Get out there and be with your community.

Things are opening up now and the rain should stop soon over here (it is summer after all!). Do not isolate yourself. Come out! Plan a date with friends!

A Final Thought

It feels like endings and new beginnings, maybe not massive ones, a step in the evolution of you.

As you evolve, trust your inner knowing. ‘Let your knowledge become your understanding’.

Big love and light
