Achieving Balance and Inner Peace: A One-Step Approach for Clarity and Alignment
A young person with an old soul and a curious nature, I found myself dissecting information, turning it inside out in my head, and repeating it out loud. I was more interested in the gaps and what wasn't being said than the words themselves.
Intuitive and a messenger for others, I could easily decipher and provide insights into their problems.
However, when it came to my own guidance, clarity became hazy and muddy. Being out of alignment was more normal than being in alignment.
I was disconnected from my self, with energy blocked throughout the body, preventing inner guidance from my higher self, ancestors or guides then wondering why nothing in my life was going the way I wanted.
External Pressure
People in my external world made me doubt my inner vision (clairvoyance). The result was a lack of trust in myself as I didn't have a safe space to voice my thoughts without being constantly dismissed. As a result, I turned inward and stopped speaking up.
A pattern that occurred throughout my school years and also into adulthood.
I became confused that I couldn't trust my thoughts and feelings. It is not surprising that I have Gate 64 - the gate of confusion in human design, which is all about the pressure to make sense of everything logically. This aligns with my Virgo nature, as we are very logical.
However, the downside to this left me not trusting myself and hello anxiety and overwhelm, all very much in the mental realm. My inner guidance was extinguished like a flame in a fire.
The actions I took resulted in decisions that were influenced by others and steered me away from alignment.
Learning the Lessons
This issue only became more dominant after my spiritual awakening.
Logical had its place but the heart was the new centre in which to live from. It called on intuition, the gut, the cues the body gives and the gentle nudges from within. It became internal, not external.
Did I learn this lesson immediately? Not initially. I continued to react from the external and what was happening outside of me, dismissing my internal guidance. Thinking logically felt safe and normal and was a big part of my conditioning.
Making decisons and choices based on what felt right was daunting and confronting. I learned some hard lessons, which was one of the reasons I want to offer clarity and alignment sessions - to guide others before they make choices and experience challenges similar to the ones I had to experience.
In spirituality, there are no mistakes, only lessons. It requires effort to acknowledge this new way of thinking, rewiring the brain to listen to our inner compass. The beauty in that though is that we always end up exactly where we are supposed to be. Sometimes in hindsight, we become aware of this.
After an awakening as a multidimensional soul we begin to learn awareness. It is a state of consciousnes as opposed to unconscious before an awakening. Its a soul feeling, moments to pause and consider our decisions before making them.
Moving Through the Pressure
Clairity and alignment is a balance between the mind, body, heart and soul. Each is vital and important, but knowing when to invoke the heart, the mind the body or the soul that matters. Sometimes there are times when logical is needed. Other times the soul screams so loudly you have to eventually take notice.
In my case, it was recently moving out of Sydney, 1.5 hours from family. I had nudges from the universe for some time, feeling deep in my soul that I needed to make a big change. Many nights I wrestled with my logic and ego, but the soul whispered quietly. And for once, I paid attention.
The pressure from the logic was knowing that family and friends would be surprised and try to talk me out of it, which they did. That didn't mean I didn`t get confused; I did many times. I started falling back into old patterns of seeking outside guidance. My head swam in confusion, and the anxiety became suffocating. I felt stuck and frozen in place.
I knew that if I didn't follow my guidance this time, I would be placing others' happiness and their insecurities and doubts before my needs. My path would no longer be in alignment, my future would be based on others, and my present would remain blurred with uncertainty because I wasn't keeping an open path to my intuition.
Understanding the Logic
This is where logic became useful. I began developing ways I could balance between my head and my heart that would make me feel safe to make decisions. And making peace with the fears that were trying to hold me back.
I remembered a client I worked with a few years ago. We were both logical thinkers, list makers, like kids in a candy store where we wanted to do everything but were feeling confused and overwhelmed.
At the time we both were experiencing external pressure to be the support system for someone else. After this session, I came up with the one-step approach - a simple and grounded logical process that allowed guidance to follow through.
Guidance is blocked when we don't give it space to be heard. Clarity and alignment can't be found because they are lost in the overwhelm. We become out of sync with our souls, inner vision, intuition and physical cues. The way we come back into alignment is different for everyone.
The one-step approach
This is a simplified process, and what I'm sharing with you is the first step, but it creates a pathway to follow forward.
It begins by asking yourself what you need at that moment. Not what others need - what do you need? The simplest way is giving logic a tool or process to make that happen.
For example, I learned that the quickest way to clear confusion was to take 5 or 10 minutes to myself.
Consciously choose to put myself first by giving myself space to breathe, my anxiety to settle, and my flight or fight response a safe space to pause - not freeze, just pause.
Those 5 or 10 minutes can be filled with anything that brings you that peace.
Some suggestions are:
Making a cup of coffee or tea and sitting somewhere quiet
Listening to a short meditation or high vibrational frequency music, preferably with headphones
Sitting outside in the sun
Journalling or dumping thoughts onto paper
Doing puzzells or word finders
Taking your dog for a walk or going for a short walk around the park
Doing a short yoga or stretching sequence
What not to do, is to doom scroll or waste time on social media or games. Yes, the mind will want a distraction. However, this is not training your mind to do something; this is taking healing to its most simple form - to just be.
Don`t overcomplicate it, if none of those things work and you want to take a nap, do it as long as that guidance is coming from an internal place. Not a place of "have to" or "should do."
Final thoughts
When we approach healing simply, free from overcomplication and confusion we consciously construct a new foundation for the soul to body mind heart and soul.
Slowly, the body and mind create new thought patterns, and balance is restored across all aspects of the multidimensional soul being.
Healing can be practical, simple and easy. It`s a quick soul check-in that brings you back into the present. The gift of this process is clarity and alignment because you took the first simple step towards healing yourself.
