As we’ve all come to learn one way or another: Inner Growth isn’t a straight path; it’s more like a winding spiral that is always taking us higher and deeper.
As some of you have come to figure out, terms like ascension, transcendence, transmutation, or even “going up into a higher dimension”; what they actually mean is a “descent into the heart”. A journey inwards into our heart space, into the stillness where we connect with the wiser part our beings.
We surely have a way of using our language in confusing ways! There is always a paradox or a duality. But these are words for another write up sometime in this timeline.
What is this post is about then? Well, I am not sure yet. These words are just pouring out. I have been sitting on this idea for a few days, and really struggling to word it in a way that feels coherent. So here it goes!:
There are days when I lead with confidence, and other days when I sit in silence. Remembering that I’m still human, still learning, and that I, as everything around me, am always in motion.
It’s in these moments, when I, too, need the kind of light I offer. It’s also in these moments that I find the truest connection to myself.
Because this calling in my heart isn’t about perfection, it’s not about aesthetic or strategy, it’s about presence, embodiment and connection.
And presence, embodiment and connection happen when I stop pretending I have it all figured out.
And would’t it be so “perfect” to have all the answers? To never feel deeply lost with uncertainty, in out thoughts, our actions, and our decisions? How much growth would be experienced from this place of “perfection”?
Every time I hold space for someone else’s inner journey, I come face-to-face with another layer of my own. And after sessions, I must find the time and space to sit with this new learning, to observe it and integrate it. It brings up so much gratitude in my heart, but it can also feel like true momentum evades me. I've come to understand that this is part of the call too, that it is not a race because there no finish line. This path is at Soul level, infinitely divine. Like I said, another layer of my own journey.
Guiding others through hypnosis and holding space for energy work has taught me that my medicine deepens each time I allow myself to be an open container for it.
When a client experiences a breakthrough, I feel the movement of energy within me. Like a tidal wave returning home to the collective consciousness. I am reminded that the energy that heals one has the power to heal all. It also reminds me that the journey is very individual. And by this, I don’t mean it’s a lonely one, although many times it can feel like it. What I mean, is this:
“We are all unique expressions of an infinite Universal Consciousness, and every thing we experience in our body, mind and energy, at a Soul level, turns into more growth and expansion for this same Universal Consciousness. We ARE meant to grow individually, so that OUR authentic frequency can vibrate through all of us as a collective, lifting us higher and taking us deeper. It will unite us together into Oneness, into Divine Love and Harmony. The inner work IS individual, but the “descent into the heart” IS collective.”
As a woman who guides others to find their inner light and power, I am not separate from them. I walk beside them, and in return, I am shown the power of my own truth.
Because we’re all mirrors of one another, reflecting our lights and our shadows. Reminding each other of what’s possible when we choose our truth, and love ourselves for this choice.
I know that “our medicine IS the journey”, it is also the realness, the unraveling, and the rising we are experiencing.
By opening our hearts and moving in harmony with our heart’s frequency, we create a vibrational wave that calls others home to themselves too.
This is why I wholeheartedly believe our gifts MUST be shared.
Because somewhere, someone is waiting for the frequency only you carry. To feel inspired, to be ignited from within, to be on the receiving end of this wave in a way that triggers them into curiosity, into awareness and into questioning their own perception of reality.
Ultimately, we are all searching for very similar things: depth, connection, truth, love and belonging.
And the more we share our light and our humanness, the more we make space for the individual healing and the collective “descent” into the heart!
So if you are a space holder, a guide, an anchor for others, remember:
The light you give is meant to circle back to you.
Keep sharing your voice. Keep showing up as you are.
Because your story might be the mirror that helps someone else remember their own. And this is a crucial part of the journey!
