How to Embrace Uncertainty and Use it in Your Favor!

How many of you guys have been feeling so weird, uncertain, and uncomfortable with how things are going right now??

I know I definitely have been feeling in-freaking-sane lately.

Things aren't going the way I want.

I feel confused.

And I think a lot of us have just been in a weird place lately because the whole world is in the midst of a whole lot of uncertainty.

Even the leaders we often look up to - they don't know what the crap to do.

So I looked back to my old notebook of where I journaled every day while I was transitioning from working a stable 9-5 job, to when I found my wings and decided to fly... with ZERO certainty about where I was going to land. A whole lot of uncertainty, but it was a time that I REALLY looked forward to and embraced changes.

What I found in that notebook was a lot of affirmations, a lot of keeping my spirit and my vibration high. Because I knew, if I felt any hint of doubt or fear, it would take me off course to where I wanted to go.

I also did a lot of scripting. Scripting is one method of manifestation, where you write in present tense, what you want to happen.

For example, I would write something like "I am SO FREAKING GRATEFUL, that I get to wake up in the morning feeling so excited for the day. I get to go and work on something that I am super passionate about and that lights me up! I get to hang around people that inspire me and who support me"

Even when it wasn't necessarily true for me at the time, it was going to be true in the near future because that's what I was attracting. And I spent time to really feel as if that was the reality, and I got specific as I could about the feelings I wanted to have.

So in order to get through this time of uncertainty, look at life through the lens of wonder and curiosity. Like, "what exciting opportunities might be around the corner for me", or "I can't wait to see the magic that shows up in my life right now."

I really do believe when things aren't planned, you leave room for magic. You're more open to the universe to deliver the things you have been asking for.

Now just make sure you're asking for the things you want in your life by focusing on what it is you'd like to attract, instead of filling your mind with worries, doubts, or fears.

Now more than ever, it's our duty to make sure our vibration is high, and we stay focused on what we want. There's a big shift happening.

Now is the time to start anew, and to be very intentional about what you allow into your life.

Depression, Anxiety, Anger, etc. How to lift yourself from a downward spiral.

Hey guys! 

In this podcast, I'm talking about some tips that have really helped me these past few weeks while I've gone through some dark times.

First, just want to acknowledge that it's perfectly normal to go through ups and downs in life. Living a life that you love doesn't mean you won't have bad moments, bad days, weeks, or months. I try not to label experiences as bad, as I've realized that even the bad moments lead up to greater, unexpected positive life shifts. 

Allow yourself to feel and don't try to run or block yourself from experiencing "negative" emotions. But if you feel like you're going through a prolonged depression, or spiraling downward, here's some ways you can lift yourself up, raise your vibe, and get you on a higher frequency. 

Hear the full podcast here, or listen on any podcast streaming platform! Otherwise, watch the condensed YouTube video above!

Some tips I talk about include:

- EFT Tapping -

This is a new method for me that I've tried and have really loved. It uses acupressure points to tap on and I've found that it really gets the energy in my body flowing. So out with the old negative energy or thoughts, in with new ones. Gala Darling is a great person to learn about EFT tapping from. Here's her video on what it is and how to do it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WpEn18Bp4tA&t=888s

- Get your body moving -

whatever your fav form of movement is - stretching, yoga, exercise, even BREATHWORK. This is another way to get the energy flowing in your body, remove blockages from heavy emotions, and make room for more positive energy. Check out Wim Hof's breath work exercises: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0BNejY1e9ik

- Process verbally -

talk to someone you trust or just talk to yourself! Yes, even out loud, its okay. Or just journal it out. Whatever method you choose, talking gets you out of those repetitive thoughts, and allow you to process your emotions.

- Show compassion -

to others and especially to yourself. Everyone is trying their best from their level of awareness and perspective, including you. There is no need to be hard on yourself or anyone. 

- Give thanks -

for this experience, this learning lesson, and this opportunity to grow, become stronger, and better. Do a gratitude meditation and focus on all of the things supporting you in your life. Whether that's people you love, the trees, the sun, water, food, etc!

- Give yourself permission to let go -

tell your body to let it all go and try so see how much you can relax your body. You'll be surprised how much tension your body can hold on to without you even realizing it. Give your mind the same permission to let go of the anger, obsessive thoughts, or whatever else is ailing you. Even if it keeps coming back, just keep telling yourself to LET GO.  

No matter where you are at in your journey, we all face challenging moments. But just remember that you have tools like the ones above, and you don't have to be a slave to your emotions.

Let me know if this has helped you. Please share this with someone that needs to hear this!
