Realizing FREEDOM 👀‼️
Why putting yourself first is the key to freedom | save the date for my next LIVE guided meditation
Hi friend!
For the past week or so, my thoughts & emotions have been on 100. I’ve been experiencing a world wind of emotions, new insights & remembering truth again. What I’ve been going through can seemingly be considered what most may describe as a spiritual awakening.
And now this isn’t my first “spiritual awakening,” either…and probably not my last. And I also didn’t ask for this to happen yet it’s here, now & I’m embracing all of it.
But this week I won’t be necessarily talking about the details of my spiritual awakening. Instead I would like to share one insight I had around freedom & what freedom actually is.
And here’s what was unveiled to me —
…So many of us want happiness, peace, & freedom, yet never take the neccesary steps to allow for that to happen. What many of us do instead is we tend to the needs of others, forgetting about ourselves along the way.
And while it may seem like we’re coming from a loving place by putting others before ourselves, it’s actually quite destructive and truly serves no one.
True service is when you operate your life from a place of self love, self care, self respect, putting self FIRST!
Because the truth is…this life… is about you. And only you! Isn’t that interesting?
What makes this even more interesting is that when you make your life about you, you also make it about your loved ones and the ppl around you too.
This happens because you’re living honestly and being authentic about how you want to live your life. And so when you lead from this space, you create room to not only give to yourself, where you can fill your own cup, you also have enough to fill the cups of those around you as welll.
When you live a life that’s true to you, it means you prioritize yourself; you feed your mind, body, & spirit all of what it needs — love, attention, & connection.
And when you can allow yourself to fully feel and embody this understanding as to why it’s vital & absolutely necessary for you to be doing what you want to be doing in your life is when you will start to experience a taste of what liberation feels like. You start to experience flow.
When you help yourself, you help the world. And that couldn’t be more true. And so remember that because YOU and YOUR needs matter. YOU deserve to put yourself first!
Like that “old saying” goes — you gotta put your own oxygen mask on first before you can help anyone else.
So for today, this week, this month, the rest of this year and your whole life from here on out, see if you can give yourself permission to put yourself FIRST.
Living life by example benefits everybody, yourself included.
