I feel too much. I am too sensitive. I just can’t make a clear decision. I need more help.
Who hasn’t heard those words in their head at some time? We can’t always feel solid as a rock. Change happens. Here are a few tips for the road of change:
1. Be kind to YOURSELF. Catch yourself when you are being punishing to you and shift.
2. Make time to be open and to close. Sometimes we are too open for too long when we needed to pause and rest, to stop and just not think or feel. Empty yourself and float in warm water images.
3. Your rhythm will change. You will bloom and you will seed. You will have times where nothing seems visible. Trust yourself. Remember past times when you came through a rocky road.
4. Appreciate all you have been for others.
5. Take one step forward towards something that might lift you. You do know what that is…maybe you just forgot until right now.
6. Be realistic by getting your expectations a reality check, not a fantasy view.
7. Allow yourself to dream big and not have to take an action right away. Dream…
8. Say what you need to say to that person. Find your words and let them know you feel awkward with this and still here you go…..
Transitions are entering the unknown and practicing making friends with just not knowing for now. There are happy surprises in new rooms.
Take good care,
