Next Level - Where your Dreams are Waiting

All emotions are good, all emotions have insight to give us.  

If you enjoy reading my blog, chances are you are a growth mindset person, and often choose to grow and stretch!  But even for those of us that are growth mindset sometimes it feels like it is happening to us, and this is not as pleasant.  Maybe it happens in an area of life we often don't look at? Or maybe it happens at a speed and intensity that we would never choose.  I know both of these so well.  I have been forced to upgrade many times at a pace way more intense than I would ever choose, and also in areas of my life that I didn't realize I was not giving enough attention to.  You are not alone <3

In either case; when we are growing or stretching intentionally or if it feels like its happening to us; an array of unpleasant emotions can show up.  From anger, resentment, anxiety, sadness, feeling numb...  this does not mean stop or give up!  But you may want to allow space, or a pause, give the emotions showing up some room to express their concern.

It is important to have the right people that you can turn to to share your concerns and be witnessed, without receiving pity, being told to give up, or bulldoze through those emotions and what is going on.  

Unfortunately a lot of us don't have the right people that understand how to hold space, witness, while still knowing the truth about us - that we will succeed.  This is one reason working with a coach or having a support circle is so important.

The other day I channeled for myself about boundaries.  I was feeling very angry, and not clear on why, so I began to channel to gain insight.  Anger is an emotion that shows up when a boundary has already been crossed.  Its like "the protector behind the battle line."  I know that's a weird metaphor, but I think it paints the accurate picture.

Anxiety is anticipation that a boundary will be crossed or that a need will not be met.  Essentially its anticipation that you will not be validated.

Sadness or grief could be an expression of attachment to what you lost, might be loosing, or didn't get.

Resentment, I think is some combination of anger, sadness, or anxiety.  Depending on the person.

Conversely Joy, excitement, happiness, fulfillment... you are in the flow of expansion, you are comfortable where you are, and also enjoying the ride to the next level.  I know this is where we would all like to be, but sometimes that's just not how it goes. 

Check out the image.  In the blank space is where both Resistance and Boundaries being crossed exists and occurs.  The comfortable growth area, is how far we are used to stretching, and our visions and dreams are way outside of that!  Sometimes we are able to handle or suspend resistance to achieve our dreams, and sometimes its more challenging.   

Conversely having our boundaries be crossed is a REALLY uncomfortable thing, equally as uncomfortable as our needs not being met.  Which essentially I see our needs as a boundary, its just that its a boundary that you want certain people to touch.  As you get comfortable with each new level the outer limits extend.  And so truly we are always growing.  Its just those of us that are growth mindset choose to stretch more often, and those that are not growth mindset experience each new level as a threat, and so it does not feel nice through the whole process, until they/we have finally acclimated (grown) and have acceptance, and maybe even enjoy this new level.

This is what I do.  I help you to though the potential resistance with much more ease, strengthen your courage to express your boundaries to others, and help you get to those dreams and visions that are waiting for you, wanting you to be there at your next level.   Getting to your dreams can happen so much faster than you might believe <3
