Feeling alone?

Updated on
Feeling alone? Feeling not yourself? Or maybe feeling that ‘yourself’ is not ‘good enough’?
Not compared to …?
Not liked or followed ‘enough’? Feeling you’ve got it but then you see…, you hear…?
 
It’s not you. There isn’t anything ‘wrong’ with you. Our brains, our bodies, our beautiful heart-centered selves have not evolved to be relying on external random never-going-to-meet-them likes and follows.
We thrive on connections, yes. We need these, yes.
And it is SO much better, more effective, REAL-happiness-inducing when they are real, in real life, with actual real-you-can-reach-out-and-touch-them connections. The natural world, animals or people.
 
So, what can YOU do today? To bring real connection and/or meaning into YOUR REAL LIFE today?
 
Maybe it’s a phone call, maybe it’s chatting with someone at the store check-out? 
Maybe it’s getting out for some movement and fresh air and asking someone for directions or recommendations (e.g. of nice places or cafes or bookstores to visit). 
Maybe it’s patting someone’s dog. Maybe it’s popping round to meet a neighbour with a tiny ‘housewarming’ gift.
Maybe offer to volunteer somewhere once a week or month? (What do YOU love? What has meaning for/to YOU?)
Maybe, and this can be SUPER useful, it’s calling out for help – calling a free helpline, a friend, a counsellor.
 
Whatever you’re feeling, however or whoever you are, do NOT, I repeat do NOT, rely on unpredictable out-of-your-control external likes or not for YOUR OWN SENSE OF WORTHINESS. Your own sense of connective-ness.
 
For you are already whole. We were just not meant to isolate ourselves so often. 
 
It’s ok. You’re here. That’s enough. Look after you. You are NOT alone in this. We’ve just made it easy in our every-day-lives to do this. To disconnect.
 
So start now. Write a little (or big) list of all the ways you COULD possibly connect with someone or somewhere in real life.
 
It’s time. 
 
Yes social media is fun. Yes, it can be useful. It can be ONE way of ‘connecting’. But please remember, this is not natural for ourselves, so it IS more likely to throw us, to unsettle us.
 
Pop back today into the real world here, around you.
 
Not sure where to start? Grab some paper and a pen and get out for a walk where you live now. Off you go sweetheart. One step. Xxx

Honour what is within

Updated on
Honour what is within.
 
Sometimes when we stop, when we allow ourselves to make a pause in our rushing, we do not like what we find, what we feel there.
 
Strong emotions can come up, arising from what we haven’t listened to in a while. That place, of feelings that can feel icky.
That place, of not knowing, not knowing what we will find there, feel there.
So instead, do you rush? Do you find things to do, activities or actions that prevent you from feeling?
Ways of moving or being that do not require you to pause? To reflect on what is?
 
Yes, it can feel uncomfortable. Yes, there can be pain or sadness or insecurity at first. But, you remember, that this resting place is ALSO where you are? YOUR joy, YOUR hopes and wishes and connection to fun – YOUR type of fun, for YOU.
Does this sound or feel familiar?
Can YOU relate to this, in any way?
 
Then maybe it’s time. Time to come home. Find your way, get support, whatever it is you need just now. In the quiet, in THIS quiet time that YOU make, for and WITH you, will only bring you closer.
You’re home. Already sweetheart.

Reflections

Updated on

So when I first stop, stop in my rushing and busy-ness, I see many thoughts, I notice the mind chatter and worries, shoulda, TO DOs still to be done.

Then, as I sit, as I allow myself to be here, I start to see more. I start to observe.

Observe just how many thoughts are with me.

Observe just how fast they whizz around.

Observe how my attention and focus is hopping from one idea or thought to another.

I observe these. And I welcome them. For they are ALSO part of me. Part of my feelings, part of experience in THIS moment.

And sometimes they are ‘nice’ – nice to feel, nice to have around with me. And sometimes they are not. Sometimes the busy-ness, the rushing may seem easier, less uncomfortable, more familiar and so we may choose that, to go back to doing that thanks.

If you can observe, if you can BE WITH this perception – of THIS experience, in THIS moment – then slowly but surely you

will also gain you.
Asense of you that is NOT these worries.
A sense of you that IS MORE WHOLE.

And perhaps remember that this is ALSO where joy may be found. Within. You. Xxx . .

Standing in the shadows

Updated on
Standing in the shadows.
Warmth and light? Coolness and dark? Sun in or out? Sometimes I want to shine, to stand out and say “Yes! This is what I’m doing!”
Other times it’s a pull, a lovely call to retreat, a drawing within. Within to look at my ‘stuff’. To be quiet. To be reflective.
As the pre-order phase of my first book approached, I wondered which shall I be? Which will I be then?
For in it are many reflections. Many times when I sat with my ‘stuff’.
When I said
“Ok heart. I hear you. I’m open and listening to you now. What would you like to tell me?
What is it that I need to, could benefit even, from knowing and hearing just now?”
And then answers came.
And yes, sometimes they took their own sweet time. On other occasions answers, explanations, flooded into me. Into my awareness, bringing me understanding and peace. Phew.
So much peace.
And always, always with such love. Such grace. Such beauty.
So yes, heart callings, heart messages – that come from inner connections, from peace flowing to and around me. Come on in.
And I will share. Share in the space so that maybe this is useful for others too.
That maybe it is ok to be messy. To have times where I do know and “Yes! It’s all so clear!” 😃
And times also where
“I do not know what to do heart. I do not see or feel or understand so clearly. And yes I love you. And yes I’m here. So let’s explore together. “
Together. Xxx❤

The I’m-too-busy fog

Updated on
More of yourself.
As you make time to sit, sit with you, feel you, honour you.
As you give yourself the gift of a few minutes going slow, be here with mother nature.
As the mist, as the fog of I’m-too-busy-to-stop clears.
There you are. Already, and more of yourself. 💙🏞

Like ripples on a pond

Updated on
Like ripples on a pond.
What are you sending out into the world?
Where are you? Within your-self?
Are you present and still? Or are you rushing? Rushing to get-that-done, to be-like-them, to do…?
Like ripples in the pond water, what we feel, what energy we bring, can affect what’s around us too.
Our actions, our intentions. Our busy-ness, or not. Our stillness, at our very core, or not.
What are you sending out? 💜

Pathways and choices

Updated on
Patterns on your tree. Pathways and choices, visible and not.
These marks are from the scribbly gum moth, on the scribbly gumtree. A native here.
Like an idea first laid, born, the larvae are at first hidden. Hidden under several outer layers. Not yet visible.
As they grow – ideas and larvae – they feed on what’s around them, their environment.
When they feel strong enough, are big and steady, they appear. They come out into the light, to be seen, to live, to share.
What ideas are bubbling, growing under your surface? What ideas are not quite ready to be seen, are still growing? Perhaps incubating?
Be gentle with them.
Be gentle with you.
THEN, when you give yourself permission, when you allow yourself to be supported, to have an environment that assists your growth THEN out they come and breathe.
Stretch your wings and ideas today.
What might like to come out from your own bark? 💙

It’s time to re-connect

Updated on
It’s time to RE-connect.
Time to reconnect with you. With your feelings, ideas.
What do YOU enjoy? What do YOU like to do? How do you like to play?
Nevermind what you see on social media. Nevermind what you see OTHERS doing. Consider – really feel into it – how does that feel, to YOU? When you imagine doing that?
When you try doing that?…
Hmm. Feel good, or great? Or even just a little exciting?
Then go for it. Plan, set it in your calendar. Get someone else involved if you’d like. If it will help you, to do it.
If not, then don’t. Do you.
Go have fun. Just for today. It’s only one day, right? 😄

It’s not always black or white

Updated on

It’s not always black and white. There’s not always one answer. Clear or not.

You don’t HAVE to KNOW IT ALL now. You do not.

Take these wondering, these “I don’t know why” and pop them in your pocket. Take them for a walk or sit or silly fun-in-the-moment play with yourself.

Give it time, be with what IS, just now.

THEN let the answers come, if they do. THEN, well there is no then. YOU are YOU already.

Remember sweet one?

Share from a full cup

Updated on

Share from a full cup.

Yes, give. Yes, share. Yes, be all that you can be.
AND take care of you. AND fill your own cup (with water, nourishing food, sleep, rest, fun – whatever it is that your body and soul need now)
And THEN share, THEN give. And then your GIVING will have that much more power and effect.

Love to you. Remember to send love back to you today, too. ❤
