Full Snow Moon vibes are coming in strong this week….
Ohhh, it’s so freaking real. Last week I was deep in it. I felt all the winter feels, and chills and darkness which were seemingly never-ending. All my little “parts” were activated. The judge, the critic, wanted to take back control, thinking, “what do I have to do to get out of this funk,” running in the background for 24 hours or so.
Thankfully I had the awareness and patience to notice these parts and give them the love and attention they needed. Letting them know it’s perfectly okay to feel aggravated.
I’ve learned there is a massive power in sitting with my discomfort while calling in curiosity and compassion for all that is in my awareness, knowing that I can feel aggravation and joy simultaneously.
IT’S TRUE….when you’re ready, reach out to me and hit me up. I’ll show you.
Even though I know these things, it felt good to hash it out with a friend and peer.
So I reached out and was reminded that “the way we do one thing is the way we do everything.”
This devotion reminded me of how this mantra has shown up for me throughout my life and in many ways, thus remaining true. Most prevalently in my early 20s during my quest to lose weight and be a healthier version of myself. These qualities got me out of bed and inspired me to food prep and learn about fitness and nutrition.
They gave me the strength to persevere, completely shift my physical body, and catapult me toward this path of personal and spiritual evolution.
Whew! I feel that sh*t on a deep level even as I share this with you now. I hold much reverence and appreciation for this process.
So it is with gratitude and respect that I honor the devotion and determination in their gifts for plenty of progress over the years. I also get to put them in perspective as I dial into the energy of the season and align with the natural tendency for rest, leaning into trust and allowing the softer awakening of what is arising.
This recent experience is just one example, and there are many others. If I pause long enough to notice qualities and where they appear in my life, I can see them playing out in their gifts and distortions.
Another quick one is the organization. OH, I love me an organized color-coded, labeled living space in its gift. Things are clean and easy to locate for me and others…in the distortion, it can feel a little obsessive, where I can’t go to sleep unless the pillows are fluffed on the couch. Nothing is out of place, and I inflict these high standards on others or shy away from entertaining to avoid the clutter or mess!!
You see, the way we do one thing is the way we do everything, and calling awareness to this concept can give us great insight into what is and is NOT working for us!!
Let me help you get out of your “funk.” What isn’t working for you? Do you find yourself falling back into old patterns or behaviors? Or, how you do one thing is how you do everything?
Let Love Flow,
Bobbi
