Lately, the stuck energy had shifted from my chest to my throat. No matter how deep I breathe, the breath just stopped at the throat area. I felt suffocated and breathless. How could this be? I was breathing deeply!
I turned to Louise Hay's Book "Love Your Body". It said "I Love My Voice"! What was it that I am not voicing up? The question opened up the airway. The breath finally got to my chest. My Truth... My Personal Truth...
What is my personal truth? As the word goes, it is personal. Meaning, My Truth need not be Your Truth! Can you hear a sigh of relief?! All the courses that we attended, all the books that we read, all the audios that we listened, where have they brought you? Are you following Your Truth or Other People's Truth?
From a young age, I was told to study hard, get a job, work hard, raise my own family, be a good wife, be a good mother, the list went on and on... As I was growing up, I started to question what I had learned thus far. I read books, I attended courses, I listened to audio tapes, I watched what other rich and successful people did, I researched on yogis, self-made millionaires and billionaires...
I incorporated what I learned. I modeled after my "idols", "masters", "teachers","gurus"... yet what made them successful did no magic on me. What happened here? Am I so unteachable or uncoachable? As I watched the Successfuls being more successful, I saw myself slipping behind. More courses, more books, more audio tapes, more... & more...
Am I the only one failing so miserably? Is success out of my reach? Is my life meant to be in misery?
The more I psychic myself up, put up a strong front, dare the unreachable, the deeper into the rabbit hole I sank! What is not working on me?... I thought.
That thought brought me deeper and deeper into ME... As a Breathworker, I breathed... I meditated... As days went by, my mind got quieter and quieter. The Universe started to bring me new material... new people... new me...
In the Silence of My Mind, My Truth evolved!
All these while, I had been working outside of ME. Looking at others, I mirrored their truth. What worked for them should work for me... I reckoned. How foolish was I? I had been living in the world of others, working so hard to make me be them! They must be right... I must be wrong... How could they be wrong? They are soooosuccessful! (Now on the hindsight, I can laugh at this thought! :D)
In the Quieting of My Mind, My World evolved!
I remembered that I am whole and complete! I recalled that I am here to live my life! If it is my life, then I shall live it on my terms and conditions. I allowed me to be ME! In the beginning, my mind went... Oh, that was ugly, you couldn't do that. Oh, that was not right, you shouldn't think about that. Oh, you horrible, how could you say that. I continued to breathe and meditate and went through my days living My Life!
In the Mastering of My Mind, I honored My Truth!
Remember, these are My Truth not yours. You need not burden yourself with my truth. You have yours to live.
I have summed up My Truth into 5 pointers and I would cover them one at a time in my next few postings.
#1 Only Love Is Real
#2 Oneness
#3 Sustainability
#4 No Time & Space
#5 Only You Know The Answer
I hope in the sharing of my life experiences, I have shed some light on your path. I wish that this sharing has evoked some thoughts in your mind and heart that bring you a new level of understanding of your truth! May you find peace within yourself and the strength to live your truth.
Much Love & Light
