This is a time for opening our hearts and reconnecting at a soul level.

Our life experiences have shaped and influenced who we are and have brought us to this present moment in our lives. All of us have experienced joy, love, happiness and success but we’ve also been exposed to pain, loss and suffering too.
If your #pain and #suffering does not get acknowledged and released, then you may go through life with walls built up around your heart, blocking the light that enters and exits your heart centre; the place where your soul resides; your true path and the place where your light is ignited.
Closing off your heart ultimately blocks you from moving forward onto the path that allows you to shine. Don’t get me wrong, along our journey we will always have obstacles to overcome, but the way you view and react to the obstacles can be seen as learning and growing opportunities instead of negative, debilitating and confining experiences.
It's not an easy feat, but to truly reconnect with your #Authentic #Self you need to bring #balance to your #heartchakra. It's vital to balance all of your unique experiences so the negative ones don’t overpower and dominate the positive ones, helping you to keep your heart chakra open and more balanced.
Healing a wounded heart takes trust, dedication, patience, time, love, compassion, introspection and forgiveness. One of the greatest ways to work through unresolved grief, loss, pain and suffering, is to utilize your inherent gifts. Writing, singing, dancing, doing art, playing an instrument, photography, playing sports, building, crafting, performing, cooking, creating, connecting with animals and nature...the list goes on.
Connect with the things that make you light up from the inside out and bring you #joy and #love. These #gifts, #talents and #passions are your unique tools that can help break through the obstacles/walls preventing your soul from being free.
Uncovering past suffering can leave you feeling vulnerable, and you may feel like you are riding a rollercoaster of emotions. As you work through your issues, it is vital to surround yourself with the people, places and things that bring you joy and love because these will be your ROCKS, bringing you support and love during an emotional, and sometimes difficult journey.
It's important to recognize when we need more specialized/professional help to work through our suffering. There are so many different practitioners and modalities that can assist us on our journey of healing, such as:
Western Medicine: Counselling, Dieticians, Doctors, Specialists, etc.
Or
Eastern Medicine: Acupuncture, Chinese Medicine, Yoga, Meditation, Ayurveda, Reiki Energy Healing etc.
Using a combination of both Western and Eastern Medicine can assist you in many different ways. Remember to trust your gut and honour what feels right for your mind, body and spirit when choosing what's best for you and your healing. Everyone is unique and will benefit from different things.
May your #healing #journey bring you to a place where you can start seeing the world through a lens of #gratitude, allowing you to focus on the #positive and loving moments; focusing less on the negative. It's here where you can achieve enhanced #well-being, bringing #balance and #harmony to your mind, body and spirit.
Your past experiences reflect who you are today but they don’t have to define you.
What if you were given a clean slate to be exactly who you want to be, without any of the illusions or regrets of your past?
If no one was looking; if no one was judging; if you had the time to get to know yourself again—Who would you be? What would you do? What would you accomplish?
Allow yourself to take a journey to the centre of your heart so you may uncover the #light that is waiting to be released. When you reunite with your heart's innermost #passions and desires, watch how you #shine from the inside out, lighting the way for others who are also trying to find their way.
