Why hello there, familiar ping of anxiety in my chest. What are you alerting me to today?
I don’t always consciously know. Sometimes I don’t even go deeper than blaming the fuckery of the planets.
Anxiety is a sign of things being out of alignment. The “too much to do” state that is advocated in our society keeps us from having the time to ask ourselves- what am I feeling? What is that alerting me to?
Because the second we get introspective is the second we open the doors to recognizing the ways we have been programmed. It is so much easier on the powers that be if we don’t look within ourselves, if we don’t do the inner work, if we don’t feel worthy enough to invest in ourselves. It seems to me that traditional therapy is advocated for just enough to get people to be stable and productive members of society. It’s seen as a frivolous expense otherwise. And coaching or energy healing? Forget it. That’s a complete waste of time and money!
I needed both. Traditional therapy got me stable. It got me to the point where I was able to ask myself and trust myself about what I needed next. Coaching and energy healing helped me to develop the tools and practices that I currently am using to keep myself moving forward, calling better and better things into my life.
So what is my anxiety pointing me toward today? The lengthy to-do list before me...pointing me to the reality that I am meant to do less and BE more.
To remind me that, in the throes of a busy day, to BE present in the moment of each task.
And probably also to remind me to not pile so damn much onto my plate. 🤷♀️😂
