Be Nonetheless…
This has been the theme for my life the previous few weeks. The Universe has beckoned me to cease worrying, cease attempting so onerous, launch management, to have an enormous quantity of persistence (I’m an Aries – that is not simple), and to seek out peace all whereas witnessing one million little issues occur round me.
It’s by no means only one factor. Our mind and feelings can deal with one factor very effectively. It’s when there’s one factor, then one other, and one other, and one other that our nervous system has the tendency to get overloaded rapidly. If we aren’t cautious, we discover ourselves in an emotional disaster.
I used to be very near that if I’m trustworthy. I’ll spare you the main points. They aren’t essential.
The phrase, “Be nonetheless,” is derived from a Hebrew phrase “rapha” which implies to be weak, let go, and launch. I can really feel the lump forming in my throat by merely typing this due to how a lot I discover myself wanting to manage all of it. I need to management folks staying on the planet, not emotionally abandoning us, and my very own robust feelings from loss and grief. It’s heavy.
Being nonetheless means we put down the heavy load. We didn’t create it anyway, so why carry it?
Letting go usually means we launch issues that now not serve us. However…typically the Universe requires us to launch these issues that we imagine convey us security and contentment. We need to really feel heat and comfy, or on the very least, imagine we’re sheltered. It’s all meaningless, although. If we take into consideration Syria and Turkey and the tragedies of latest a number of earthquakes, that cozy mattress and shelter could be gone in a nanosecond.
Being nonetheless means we start to grasp that our security is just not outdoors of us. We now have completely no management over how others behave, what they assume, and we definitely don’t have any management over seismic waves. But, we need to management all of it and therein lies the problem with most of us. As a substitute of accepting what we will’t management, we thrash about making all kinds of noise hoping we’ll lastly really feel secure.
It doesn’t work.
What does work very effectively is being nonetheless. Nevertheless, it doesn’t come with out its personal set of challenges. As soon as we permit ourselves to develop into nonetheless, we then open ourselves to listening to our inside voice – that co-creative voice that’s us and the Universe and nobody else. That voice can lead us to tremendous scary (and often tremendous highly effective) steps. The resistance is actual! Why? As a result of, once more, we don’t need to go away our cozy nest of emotional (dys)consolation. As a result of if we do…then, what?
After we are nonetheless, we’re mainly saying to the Universe, “I’m prepared to give up all of it and open myself as much as all self-preservation. My guard is down. Carry it!”
It’s calming and terrifying all on the similar time.
The opposite problem of being nonetheless is to know when to behave. Will we keep nonetheless after we obtain our subsequent guided step? Will we take radical motion? Will we wait to listen to your complete plan earlier than taking step one? The reply is, “Sure!” Sure to the entire above. It might be one or all three actions. Solely you recognize however you received’t know except you keep nonetheless sufficient to really feel into your core essence; there is part of you that innately is aware of your manner, your fact, and your life path.
Be nonetheless and know.
All my love and help,
Allyson
